The beginning of the story is always inseparable from a sad scene.
In the snowy winter, people were walking in groups of three or two. The wind was cold and the pedestrians all tightened their collars and wrapped their outer robes tightly, and looked back from time to time at the woman who was struggling to move forward in the snow.
The woman was thinly dressed, with marks of beating on her face and blood clotted at the corner of her mouth. Her face was as pale as snow, and she was emaciated. Her bulging belly was particularly eye-catching.
This is the woman named Yang.
Because her husband was an alcoholic, he came home drunk and asked Yang for money. Yang had no money to give him, so she was beaten by her husband. Heartbroken, Yang ran away from home.
Yang fell in the snow. Jiang Xing passed by the place where Yang was unconscious, brought her back to the mansion, took good care of her, and let her give birth to her child in the Jiang mansion.
The child who stole the old man's purse on the street was Yang's son.
"Your Majesty, Chief Justice Song is waiting for your imperial edict to exonerate the Jiang family." said the eunuch.
Ji Xingzhi was slightly stunned when he heard this: "Didn't the emperor's uncle give this matter to him? Doesn't the emperor's uncle have the power to give orders?"
That's impossible. How could the regent not even have this little power?
Upon hearing this, the eunuch shook his head and said, "Not really. Tingwei Song went to look for the prince, but the prince was not at home."
Not at the palace? Ji Xingzhi couldn't help but frown: "Do you know where the emperor's uncle went?"
"I don't know." said the eunuch.
Ji Xingzhi's brows were furrowed more and more. In her memory, since the emperor's uncle returned from his travels and took over the Lizhou Kingdom, he had basically not been anywhere else except the Regent's Palace and the Imperial Palace. If it were in modern times, the emperor's uncle would be an extremely otaku who would never go out unless there was something important. Where could the emperor's uncle go?
Thinking of this, Ji Xingzhi couldn't help feeling uneasy and panicked.
Putting aside the inexplicable feeling of unease in her heart, Ji Xingzhi pursed her lips slightly and said, "Send someone to tell Ruhua to go back to the Ji family with her tomorrow."
"yes."
The next day.
After breakfast, Ji Xingzhi, Ji Ruhua, the eunuch and others left the palace in a grand procession.
Like Ji Ruhua and Ji Xingzhi, they usually kept a low profile when leaving the palace, but today was different.
In the past, Ji Ruhua returned to the Ji family as a young lady of the Ji family, but today she returned as the Princess of Lizhou. There were more than a hundred palace maids and guards accompanying her, plus soldiers for protection. It was a big scene.
Leading the way were seven soldiers riding tall horses, wearing silver armor, helmets, and long swords hanging from their waists. They were all tall and strong with serious expressions. They walked forward holding the reins in one hand and the other on the hilt of the sword at their waist, as if they would draw their swords at the next moment.
At the front of the team was a military commander, whose silver armor was different from that of the other soldiers and looked more refined.
This general's name is Zhang Qian, he is twenty-one years old this year, and is a direct subordinate of Lord Langling. He is also a high-ranking official. He is young and promising. Because he is handsome and looks like he is easy to bully, he is often laughed at.
Ji Xingzhi asked the eunuch to arrange this person to escort Ji Ruhua, which was also giving Ji Ruhua enough face.
Looking at the carriage that Ji Ruhua was sitting in, the pink curtains fluttered in the wind, as if there was a huge round pearl on the top of the carriage in the ancient castle. The sunlight passed through the pearl and reflected a dazzling light.
Three white horses pulled the gorgeous carriage. They were full of energy and had bright eyes. They looked like rare and good horses.
Ji Ruhua was somewhat flattered. Looking at Ji Xingzhi, who was sitting opposite her and dressed in an inconspicuous manner, she pursed her lips, lowered her head slightly towards Ji Xingzhi, and whispered softly, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Hearing this, Ji Xingzhi smiled and said, "You're welcome."
