Xu Shilin, Xu Jieyu?
Murong Ye frowned. This was not the first time he heard this name.
The last time his mother came back, she told him to be careful of Xu Shilin.
He secretly investigated it at the time, but found nothing, so he didn't take it to heart.
I never thought that a mere concubine could convince my father to make the decision for her.
The means involved can be imagined.
However, he heard the little kid speaking up for him in a baby voice.
Murong Ye's tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly.
"You guys..." The emperor's gaze fell on Wang Xiaoyu and others, his tone displeased.
"You listened to the malicious words of a cunning slave and wantonly framed her."
"And you maliciously damaged the jade pendant I gave to the princess."
"You can escape the death penalty, but you can't escape the living punishment!"
"Someone come here."
"Give them each thirty lashes of the cane and send them back to their respective homes."
"If you raise a daughter with such shameless and evil intentions, all her fathers and brothers who are officials in the court will be demoted one rank and fined three months' salary."
The emperor had the final say.
"Please spare my life, Your Majesty. I will never dare to do it again!"
Lin Xiuxiu and others burst into tears.
Although Your Majesty did not take their lives.
But her father and brothers were demoted from their official positions.
Wang Xiaoyu and Tang Yufeng are the legitimate daughters of the head of the family. Although their situation is difficult, it is not too bad.
It's hard to say about her.
This time when she goes back, she is afraid that she will be tortured by her mistress to the point where she would be worse than death.
Lin Xiuxiu was distraught.
At this moment, she regretted it very much.
I must have been blinded by greed, otherwise how could I have been instigated by just a few words from the person sent by the princess.
To do such a thankless task?
Unfortunately, when everything is settled, what awaits her will be endless torture from her family.
"The young lady was frightened by what happened today." The emperor looked at Jiang Wanyue.
He was immediately attracted by Jiang Wanyue's stunning and cold temperament.
"Are you from the Xuanping Marquis's family?" the emperor asked softly.
"Your Majesty, I am Jiang Wanyue, the second child in the Marquis Xuanping's mansion." Jiang Wanyue saluted respectfully.
"I didn't expect Jiang Junfan to give birth to a daughter with such an extraordinary temperament." The emperor said with a smile.
"You have been wronged this time. Since you are a girl and have never passed the imperial examinations, I can only compensate your father."
The emperor thought for a moment.
"The title of Marquis Xuanping should have been revoked by your father's line. However, I will allow the title to continue to be passed down through three generations. Are you satisfied with this result?"
The emperor looked gentle and kind as he asked for Jiang Wanyue's opinion.
"Everything is up to the emperor." Jiang Wanyue knelt in gratitude, "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty."
I didn't expect that my scumbag dad would get such a good deal.
Jiang Wanyue felt annoyed.
However, when I thought about my mother planning to divorce my scumbag father, this emotion disappeared into thin air.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Tiantian couldn't help but get goose bumps all over her body.
[Help, what's with that look in that scumbag dragon's eyes? Could it be that he's attracted to my second sister?]
[Can you please stop being so disgusting? Didn't you always say you love your white moonlight, Xu Shilin, the most? Don't mess with my second sister.]
[Bah, scumbag Long, I haven't even come to terms with you for pretending to favor Aunt Queen in order to protect Bai Yueguang!]
[If you dare to set your sights on my second sister, Tiantian will definitely destroy you, humph!]
Jiang Tiantian was complaining madly in her heart.
"Bai Yueguang, Xu Shilin? Pretending to dote on me?"
Murong Ye was shocked when he heard the little baby’s voice.
Could it be that the gentleness and sweetness that father always shows to mother is all fake?
Once the seeds of doubt are planted in the relationship between people.
It will grow against the wind and spread wantonly.
If you think about it carefully, on some grand occasions, the Emperor was indeed overly nice to the Empress.
On the contrary, my father has never cared about me and my mother in private.
He always thought that his father's strict demands on him were to train him.
Now it seems that this is not training at all, but indifference and suppression everywhere.
At this moment, Murong Ye's heart completely sank to the bottom.
The cognition of more than ten years suddenly collapsed, and even someone as resolute as him couldn't help but lose his faith.
Murong Ye, immersed in his own thoughts, felt his palms become cold and was slightly startled.
He found that it was Jiang Yuyao who stretched out her little hand and poked his palm.
Just like when he was young and in a bad mood, he tried to divert his attention.
Murong Ye felt warm in his heart.
The painful and confused emotions seemed to be wiped out in an instant.
Seeing this, Jiang Yuyao breathed a sigh of relief and was about to pull her hand back.
But suddenly, he was tightly wrapped by a warm big hand.
Jiang Yuyao blushed suddenly.
Fortunately, night fell and no one noticed this scene.
[Wow, holding hands~]
[A talented man and a beautiful woman, they are so happy with their sweetness]
Jiang Tiantian was so happy that bubbles were popping up in her heart.
The incident involving Wang Xiaoyu and others was just a small episode.
The atmosphere of the Imperial College graduation banquet reached its climax with the arrival of the emperor.
…
At this moment, in Princess Jialan's bedroom, Xu Shilin tapped Murong Xue's forehead unhappily.
"You, when will you curb your arrogant and willful temper?"
"Is it really worth you doing so much for just a young prince of the Duke of Zhenguo?" Xu Shilin sighed helplessly.
"If I hadn't arrived in time today and informed your father, the exquisite jade pendant would have been lost for several days."
"I'm afraid your father will be suspicious of you."
"If the rumor that you deliberately framed someone were to spread, your reputation as a princess would be ruined."
Xu Shilin advised earnestly.
