"Your Majesty..." Yan Zhuo took a step forward anxiously.
The emperor raised his hand to comfort him, "Don't worry, my brother. What the imperial concubine said makes sense. Jiang Qing's beloved daughter was just found back. We should give her family some time to enjoy their family happiness."
Yan Zhuo knew that this was human nature, but for some reason, he felt uneasy in his heart.
He opened his mouth to say something else, but the emperor winked at him, reminding him to be patient.
Yan Zhuo had to hold back.
The Jiang family members were overjoyed and all knelt down, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!"
Luo and Jiang Yilin stood there in a daze, forgetting to respond.
But in just one year... Jiang Yilin thought, the little flame in her heart was beginning to revive.
This time, she doesn't rely on anyone, she relies on herself!
"Ah, there are cockroaches, so many! Where did the cockroaches come from!" The atmosphere in the hall was just right. The emperor helped his beloved concubine to sit down and said that he would give her some delicious food to eat to nourish the baby in her belly. Suddenly, a scream was heard at the door.
Eunuch Huang's face turned pale and he shouted angrily, "How dare you! You lost your manners in front of the palace, do you want to die?"
There were only one or two people panicking, but as soon as Eunuch Huang finished speaking, a small group of people started panicking.
Your hands and feet were shaking. You bumped into her shoulder, she stepped on your skirt, and you couldn't control your shouting. "Ants! Such big ants! Ahhhhh, there are also earthworms!"
"There's a snake here!"
"Rats! I'm most afraid of rats, help me!"
"Geckos... Wuwuwuwu, how could there be so many? Didn't we say we would clean them up and ask a master to perform a ritual? If I had known, I shouldn't have come. The curse on Princess Qin is too terrible!"
"Hurry up and leave, or these snakes, insects, rats and ants will crawl into your clothes and you'll be doomed!"
No one cared about Eunuch Huang, and he rushed out of the door. Fortunately, the emperor had seen the world, so he just hugged Concubine Chen tightly and helped her to stand on the chair.
Concubine Chen was also very afraid of these snakes, insects, rats and ants, and her beautiful little face turned pale.
Jiang Ying was protected by her three brothers, who were not afraid of these things. Jiang Yuanlang even winked at his sister without saying a word.
Take credit for a task well completed.
"Guard the driver! Where are the Imperial Guards? Come and protect the driver!" Eunuch Huang was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
The bites from these small snakes, insects, rats and ants are not fatal, but what if they are poisonous?
The emperor was also furious. There was no trace of gentleness in his eyes. He stared at the king like a cold wind, "Uncle Wang, your family is fine. You should pray that the concubine's pregnancy is safe. Otherwise, even if I kill your entire family, it will not be enough compensation!"
Yan Zhuo stepped aside to protect the carriage immediately. The emperor glanced at him but said nothing.
Naturally, this cousin was not within the scope of the "one mansion under the jurisdiction" of the Qinwang Mansion, but Yan Zhuo was beside the emperor and the imperial concubine, and his eyes were fixed on Jiang Ying and the child. However, she was well protected by the Jiang family, so after weighing the pros and cons, Yan Zhuo decided to go and protect the emperor.
The scene was in chaos for a while. Some timid officials escaped, and some young ladies were so frightened that they screamed and couldn't even lift their feet. In their panic, they accidentally dropped their plates to the ground. The little creatures on the ground saw them and swarmed over to grab the food.
"Grrrl~" Seeing this, Concubine Chen couldn't help but cover her mouth and gulp.
Jiang Ying took out a sachet and said, "Third brother, go and give this to the royal concubine. When she smells it, she will feel like vomiting and it can also repel insects."
After Jiang Yuanlang took it, he strode over to Concubine Chen without saying a word.
When the emperor saw the latter holding it to his nose and sniffing it, his expression immediately improved. Moreover, within a certain range around him and Concubine Chen, most of the snakes, insects, rats and ants did not come near.
She was extremely surprised for a moment, "Jiang, you have made a great contribution. I will reward you again when I return to the palace!"
At this time, the Imperial Guards also arrived. Their only master was the emperor, and they didn't care about anyone else. They drove straight and protected the emperor and Concubine Chen as they left.
Yan Zhuo followed behind and paused when he reached the door, looking at Jiang Ying.
He thought that if she asked him to stay, he would ignore the emperor's suspicion and stay to protect her.
But... Jiang Ying obviously wouldn't do that, because she is not afraid at all.
Besides, don’t we still have brothers?
Yan Zhuo was very disappointed for a moment, and after some hesitation, he still raised his foot and followed the Royal Guards in front of him.
At this moment, a beautiful figure suddenly rushed in front of Jiang Ying, "Here! You must have more, here!"
She looked up, who else could it be but Sun Ruoyan? Jiang Ying was protected by her brothers, so she couldn't get close to Jiang Ying. Her face was frozen with fear, and she turned her eyes and pressed Jiang Yuanyi's arm, "Jiang Dalang, aren't you engaged? Can you ask your sister to give you the purse that Fang gave to Concubine Chen? Wuwu, I'm really...really afraid of these things, wuwuwuwu!"
As she was speaking, a thumb-sized ant crawled onto her foot, causing her to jump in fright and burst into tears.
There were quite a few frightened women in the hall, but fortunately, most of them were family members who came to the banquet, with maids, mothers-in-law, fathers-in-law, and children, and they found someone to help them leave.
Complaints against the Qinwang Palace reached an unprecedented high.
Prince Qin looked at this scene with a gloomy expression, and the look he gave to Princess Qin was as if he wanted to eat someone!
"Big brother, second brother, third brother, let's go too." Jiang Ying ignored Sun Ruoyan.
Xiao Yan laughed evilly in her arms, [You bad woman, if there is something going on, you have nothing to do with me. Why do you want to take advantage of everything? You are dreaming! ]
The little boy looked at those people with sparkling eyes as they were frightened out of their wits and were struggling to walk with limp hands and feet.
The thief laughed endlessly, [Okay, okay, okay! You guys said bad things about your mother, you deserve it! ]
[Well, they are just snakes, insects, rats and ants. It's embarrassing to scare these people.]
As Jiang Ying walked, he looked down at the monkey and said, "Aren't you afraid? Look how energetic it is."
From beginning to end, Xiao Yanjian was very calm, like a big boss watching the show.
Jiang Ying wanted to tease him, and the little guy's ears were touched by his mother's hair, which made him feel itchy and he couldn't help but giggle. [Don't be afraid, these are all left over from my generation. This is the only way to teach these chattering little girls a lesson! ]
Jiang Ying: You deserve it for being a bachelor at the age of 20.
The next second, she stretched out her hand, caught a gecko from the thin tree trunk, and brought it to the monkey, "Hey, this colorful gecko, my dear, take a look at it. Is it beautiful?"
Xiao Yan was stunned, his heart suddenly beat fast, and then he howled like a ghost.
[Take it away, ahhhhhh, this is horrible, take it away from me now! ]
Jiang Ying: "..."
It turns out that men, no matter how big or small, like to talk big!
