Chapter 208 I’m afraid you’ll know the truth, so angry that I’ll vomit blood in the street
In front of Chenghe Hall.
Everyone thought that Jiang Qinian had served as prime minister for many years and must be reluctant to give up this position.
When faced with dismissal, one always has to speak up to make excuses for oneself.
Why did you agree so readily?
Xiao Junze naturally knew that many of the civil officials in the court were Jiang Qinian's disciples.
He couldn't be too extreme about this matter.
He took this opportunity to remove Jiang Qinian from the position of Prime Minister and gave him an insignificant minor official position.
This would not only demonstrate his tolerance as a king, but also allow him to see the situation in the court in the future.
After all, during the time I was recuperating, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Lord Tang had been in close contact privately...
Thinking of this, a dark light flashed in Xiao Junze's eyes.
He glanced at Jiang Qinian who was kneeling on the ground and said in a deep voice, "Jiang Qinian, you will repent in the mansion for three months."
"Once I bring this thief to justice, I will grant you an official position again."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Qinian immediately kowtowed several times with tears of gratitude: "Your humble servant kowtows to thank you for your great grace!"
The dog emperor is good at winning people's hearts.
At the moment, no matter what official position it is, I will not be picky.
It’s a good time to take advantage of this time to rest and recuperate.
Xiao Junze was very satisfied with Jiang Qinian's performance.
"Jiang Qinian, even if you haven't made any contribution, you have worked hard during your trip to Jizhou. Go back home early!" Xiao Junze's tone was not as sharp as before.
"Your humble servant thanks the emperor for his compassion." After Jiang Qinian thanked him again, he staggered to his feet, wiped away his tears of "gratitude", and turned to leave.
Xiao Mocheng looked at Jiang Qinian's departing back, a sarcastic smile appearing at the corner of his lips.
The Prime Minister's Mansion was destroyed just like that.
The next prime minister should be my father-in-law!
At this moment, Feng Yi, who was kneeling on the ground waiting for punishment, was trembling all over.
He thought secretly: No matter what, at least I can save my life.
Ever since Xiao Junze vomited blood last time, his health has not been very good. After this period of tossing and turning, he felt a little anxious and short of breath.
In order to prevent others from noticing his abnormality, he did not make things difficult for Feng Yi.
"Deputy General Feng, please step back!" After Xiao Junze finished speaking, he turned around and stepped onto the dragon chariot.
When these words reached Feng Yi's ears, they sounded like the sound of nature.
"I thank you for your grace."
Oh my god, I thought I had to pack up and leave.
The emperor seems to be quite "merciful".
"Go to the Yangxin Palace, cough cough..." Xiao Junze covered his lips and coughed lightly a few times.
Chief Steward Ji listened to Xiao Junze's low cough and shouted anxiously, "Hurry, hurry back to the Yangxin Palace."
"Your son respectfully bids farewell to your father." Xiao Mocheng raised his eyebrows when he heard the light cough.
My father works hard for the country all day long, and his health is getting worse day by day!
"Your humble servants and servants respectfully bid farewell to the Emperor. Long live the Emperor!" After Feng Yi and several young eunuchs finished shouting, they slowly stood up.
"Deputy General Feng, you can go back!" After Xiao Mocheng finished speaking, he turned around and went back to Chenghe Palace.
Feng Yi glanced at Xiao Mocheng's back and said with a bow, "I'll take my leave!"
Haha, let’s go home!
Facing the pointing and criticizing of the palace maids and eunuchs, Jiang Qinian tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart.
You are a bunch of bastards who flatter the powerful and look down on the weak. I am just temporarily "down and out".
At this moment, Jiang Qinian had no idea that the people in the palace were pointing fingers at him because of Pei's matter.
After Jiang Qinian left the palace, he saw a carriage parked not far away.
The moment Aping, the servant beside the carriage, saw Jiang Qinian, he hurried over.
"Prime Minister, you are finally back."
Jiang Qinian looked at the startled Aping, and a hint of impatience flashed across his brows.
Sensing the gazes from the surroundings, Jiang Qinian lowered his voice and said, "A Ping, stop talking nonsense."
"I have been dismissed by the Emperor. I am just a guilty minister who is reflecting on his crime at home."
Upon hearing this, Aping froze in disbelief.
What?
The Prime Minister was actually dismissed by the Emperor?
Judging from the master's appearance, he probably doesn't know about the dirty things that Pei has done.
Alas, how should I tell Master Pei about her scandal?
"Master, don't be anxious and angry, let's go back home first..." After saying this guiltily, Aping turned his face away.
Jiang Qinian looked at the guilty Aping and became more convinced that something big had happened in the mansion during the time he was away from Beijing.
"A Ping, while I was away from the capital, did anything happen in the mansion?"
Faced with Jiang Qinian's questioning, Aping panicked.
"Master, you must be exhausted from the journey!"
"Let's go back home first...we'll talk about it later!"
Jiang Qinian looked at A Ping who avoided answering, snorted coldly, and walked straight towards the carriage.
After Jiang Qinian left, Aping quietly patted his chest.
Sir, please don't blame me for not answering your question.
I’m just afraid that if you knew the truth, you’d be so angry that you’d vomit blood in the street!
Prime Minister's Mansion.
After learning that Jiang Qinian had returned to the palace to report, Pei quickly bathed and dressed up.
At this moment, she was sitting in front of the dressing table, staring at herself in the bronze mirror in a daze.
Sunken eye sockets, sallow complexion...
This is what they call the appearance of someone who is neither human nor ghost!
Pei raised her hand and picked up the long hair hanging in front of her chest. The white hair mixed in with the black hair stung her eyes.
She murmured to herself, "Why are there so many white hairs?"
Mrs. Liu looked at Pei who was talking to herself and urged her unhappily, "Madam, please change your clothes quickly. The Prime Minister will be back soon."
"By the way, when you see the Prime Minister, you should kneel down and beg for forgiveness."
"The Prime Minister will definitely... forgive you, considering our years of relationship as husband and wife."
Alas, I guess I will have to get a divorce letter and be kicked out!
Upon hearing this, Pei quickly got up and went to the side room, and found Jiang Qinian's favorite plain and elegant clothes from the cabinet.
"Madame Liu, please help me change my clothes quickly."
"Yes, ma'am."
At the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Master, we're home." Aping said, taking down the horse stool.
Jiang Qinian in the carriage rubbed his slightly painful brow, stood up and got off the carriage.
When he saw the Prime Minister's Mansion with its doors tightly shut, he subconsciously asked, "Why are they closing the door in broad daylight?"
After knocking on the door, Ah Ping lowered his voice and said, "Master, let's go inside and talk!"
The moment the door opened, Jiang Qinian walked in quickly.
He wanted to see what unspeakable things had happened in the mansion.
Before Jiang Qinian had the time to ask, Jiang Wenhan ran over crying and knelt in front of him.
"Father, tell them that Han'er is not a bastard, not a bastard..."
Jiang Qinian was stunned by the word "bastard" from Jiang Wenhan's mouth...
What?
Bastard?
No wonder everyone looks at me strangely.
Pei, you bitch...
