Chapter 147
suppress
When the emperor saw Prime Minister Liu approaching him aggressively, the gloominess in his eyes became even greater.
but.
Jiang Zhaoying clearly saw that he was relieved again.
After all, the emperor really had no intention of confronting Prime Minister Liu’s residence for Jiang Zhiyu, but he also didn’t want to be the bad guy, so it would be best if Prime Minister Liu could resolve the matter.
"Your Majesty, I have already found out everything."
Prime Minister Liu stepped forward and bowed, then gave Jiang Jianzheng a cold look.
"Jiang Jianzheng claims to be a man of pure character, but he raised such a son. If he hadn't spoken rudely to Xianle and behaved frivolously, damaging the reputation of his daughter, Xianle wouldn't have been so impulsive as to ask someone to teach him a lesson."
Liu Xianle was shocked when she heard this. Her face turned pale under the gazes of people around her. Although she knew that this was not true, she could only cover her face and cry.
She knew that it was her father who was saving her and helping her. In comparison, a little damage to her reputation was nothing. With the means of the Liu family, this little damage could be dealt with in no time.
"As a girl, she naturally didn't dare to speak out, but she couldn't swallow this anger in vain, so she asked the guard to teach Jiang Zhiyu a lesson. The guard was eager to protect his master and killed Jiang Zhiyu by mistake. After Liu Yanchen learned about this, he immediately shot and killed the guard to avenge Young Master Jiang. Your Majesty, the Liu family was indeed wrong, but there were reasons for it, and the murderer has been beheaded by the Liu family himself. Please forgive these ignorant children."
…
This is a series of remarks that confuse right and wrong, make far-fetched arguments, and put the blame on someone else.
The Jiang Mansion, the Yang Mansion, and the Prince's Mansion were all stabbed so hard that the anger in their chests surged like huge waves. Prime Minister Liu was indeed a good man. With just a few words, he turned the entire chessboard over, even making people feel helpless.
This explanation... is really a good explanation, a wonderful explanation.
Not only did he expose Liu Xianle, he also turned Liu Yanchen's act of silencing others into revenge for the Jiang family.
Jiang Zhiyu, who died unjustly, has now become a shameless criminal with heinous crimes!
“That’s how it is.”
The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly.
Jiang Jian was so angry that his eyes turned red, and he stepped forward and knelt.
"Zhiyu would never do such a thing. People who are familiar with Zhiyu know that he is a gentleman and an upright young man. Moreover, there is evidence from both witnesses and objects. He has never provoked Miss Liu Si, nor has he ever been frivolous with any other young lady."
"Father, Zhiyu is definitely not that kind of person. They are confusing right and wrong. Father, please don't believe them."
Upon seeing this, Princess Tingyun hurriedly stepped forward, knelt down, and kowtowed heavily.
As the tears fell, her body trembled uncontrollably. How could a person be so shameless? How could he do this?
This Liu Xiangteng really deserves to be damned, damned!
"you……"
The emperor had never had any impression of Tingyun, and after being nurtured in the Prince's Mansion for a period of time, she had grown into a graceful and elegant lady. Therefore, the emperor did not recognize her at first, and only frowned when he saw clearly that it was Tingyun.
"This son, the King of Youzhou, Miss Yang and Zhiyu have always been together. He has never flirted with Miss Liu Si."
Turn your head.
Tingyun's originally soft eyes turned red, and she glared at Liu Xianle angrily.
"Miss Liu Si, God is watching what you do. You have been doing many evil things. Sooner or later, you will be punished. The punishment will be ten or a hundred times heavier than the punishment my family has paid you."
"Princess." Liu Xianle sneered in her heart, but her face was full of grievances, and even tears flowed out. "But the truth of the matter is this, he, he said that being Princess Yueming is not good at all, it is better to marry him and eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks. He promised to make me comfortable, and even... He even wanted to come over and hug me... If I hadn't run fast, maybe... maybe..."
When she lowered her eyes and cried in grievance, Liu Xianle smiled quickly with complacency and dragged Prince Yueming's Palace into it. This way, Prince Yueming would have a reason to help her deal with the Jiang Mansion.
"You are so shameless!"
Tingyun was so provoked by Liu Xianle's extreme shamelessness that he vomited blood, fell forward and fainted.
Jiang Zhaoying's heart tightened, and she hurried forward to support her, and stuffed a pill into her mouth. Yang Pianpian watched this scene and was furious.
The curtains rustled.
When he turned around, he saw Zhou Ruogu rushing in with a stern face. As he walked, he lowered his eyes and looked at the unconscious Tingyun, and gave orders in a cold voice.
"Hurry up and bring the princess here, and follow me to another tent. She has a heart disease. If she is not treated in time, she might be killed here by someone with ulterior motives."
After saying that.
Zhou Ruogu did not even greet him. He glanced at Jiang Zhaoying and quickly left with Princess Tingyun.
"Prime Minister."
The emperor leaned forward slightly.
"Although Jiang Zhiyu was wrong, it is also wrong for you to kill someone. Your Liu family should make some compensation to the Jiang family. In my opinion, let's just leave it at that."
As the prince listened to the emperor's words, his quiet and cold expression gradually tore apart, as if a sharp blade was about to cut through the air and tear everyone to pieces.
Although I had long expected that my father would definitely act as a peacemaker, making big things small and small things disappear, I did not expect that he would be biased to this extent.
His sharp eyes slowly raised, and his fierceness quickly gathered.
"Does the Emperor really want to be so confused about right and wrong?"
Jiang Zhaoying took two steps forward, heartbroken, but Jiang Jianzheng suddenly stopped her and the Crown Prince who had stood up. He looked at the Emperor with bloodshot eyes and his voice was hoarse.
"As your Majesty wishes."
A satisfied smile immediately appeared on the emperor's face. Prime Minister Liu also raised his eyebrows slightly and breathed a sigh of relief. Liu Xianle even raised his eyebrows and smiled. Only Liu Yanchen frowned.
He knows.
Even if the emperor and my father work together to suppress the matter, the Prince's Mansion and Jiang Zhaoying will not let it go.
"emperor."
Jiang Zhaoying screamed miserably and stared at the emperor. The emperor frowned, stood up and clasped his hands behind his back.
"Okay, the matter has been resolved. Lord Jiang, you can go back and bury him properly. No one is allowed to mention this matter in the future. I don't want to hear about it."
This is a gag order!
"yes."
Jiang Jianzheng leaned over to listen to the order, then grabbed Jiang Zhaoying's hand tightly and left with Yang Pianpian and his group.
The prince looked at Prime Minister Liu deeply, then turned and left with a cold look.
No one spoke.
The atmosphere was so depressing that it was hard to breathe. Everyone took Jiang Zhiyu's body away from the hunting ground as quickly as possible.
Behind.
They are a group of noble people who point fingers at others.
Nothing else was spread, but the fact that Liu Xianle was almost molested by Jiang Zhiyu was spread.
Now.
Everyone knows that Jiang Zhiyu was killed because he attempted to commit inappropriate acts against the young lady of Prime Minister Liu's mansion, so he was killed.
Carrying with them shame and injustice, they all returned to the Jiang Mansion.
Because of the rumors that Yu Zhiyu was unfavorable, there was no mourning hall. Even if there was one, no one would come because of Prime Minister Liu's residence.
"Sinan."
Jiang Zhaoying said something in Sinan's ear. Sinan nodded and went out immediately.
"I'll accompany my brother."
She continued talking to her father. Jiang Jianzheng knew that she was upset and sighed softly. Xu Zhiyan and A Yu came forward to support him and they slowly left together.
The moment the door closed.
The people outside the door heard suppressed and painful crying coming from inside.
Jiang Jianzheng's body was shaking violently, and when tears fell, he was so angry that he felt like he was going to explode.
Leaning in her brother's arms, she could no longer hear his strong heartbeat, his gentle voice, anyone would never come to her with all kinds of good things to please her, and no one would ever come to coax her again.
She cried bitterly for an hour, until her tears dried up, until hatred flowed all over her body, until her blood slowly overflowed from her mouth, then she slowly sat up.
Gently tidying up my brother's hair... his clothes...
Until Sinan comes back.
"Miss, everything is ready."
Si Nan's voice was heard outside. Jiang Zhaoying opened the door. Jiang Jianzheng and the others did not leave but waited outside. Seeing her like this, they all felt extremely uncomfortable.
"Father."
Jiang Zhaoying looked at them.
"My brother won't be buried."
Jiang Jianzheng and the others' expressions changed slightly.
"I have prepared an ice cellar, and will use some tricks to gather all the negative energy here. I will avenge my brother one day and bury him that day. On the day of the burial, I want everyone in the capital to bury my brother!"
All those who wronged him will have to pay the price.
"good."
Jiang Jianzheng couldn't bear to see his son buried like this, and naturally couldn't swallow that anger in his heart.
But the situation at that time.
If he disagrees, the emperor will definitely implicate Zhaoying and even the Crown Prince. He cannot let Zhiyu affect them.
So he had no choice but to take everyone away.
"This revenge must be avenged."
After Jiang Jianzheng finished speaking, he turned around and stepped into the inner room. Looking at his son, who was dressed neatly and looked the same as before, Jiang Jianzheng murmured in hatred.
"The Crown Prince is here."
Emerald said softly.
Xu Zhiyan hurried out to welcome His Highness in person, but saw servants carrying Jiang Zhiyu towards the backyard.
The prince looked at Xu Zhiyan, and Xu Zhiyan told him what had just happened. The prince nodded with a cold face, then went into the side room and spoke to Jiang Zhaoying.
"I will take him to the ice room with you."
The person in front of me didn't move, but just stared blankly out the window. She pointed at a plum tree not far from the window.
"My brother planted them himself. He said he would make plum blossom cake for me."
The prince took a step forward, leaned over and gently embraced her from behind.
"I know you are sad, but Zhaoying, the opponents you are going to face next are all masters, you have to cheer up."
Although these words were like a sharp knife stabbing into her heart and were extremely painful, they also made Jiang Zhaoying turn around slowly. She leaned on the Crown Prince's chest, listening to his pounding heart, and gently stroked his heart and whispered with some attachment.
"I wish his heart was as strong as this."
What a pity I can never hear it again!
The prince lowered his eyes and looked at her pale face. He didn't know what to say to comfort her for a moment. He could only hug her tightly. Both of them didn't know what to say to comfort each other for a moment.
"Walk."
After a while, Jiang Zhaoying managed to calm herself down and went out with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
The cellar had been decorated very nicely. It was inlaid with luminous pearls all around, making it as bright as day. The walls were covered with the finest satin, and it was decorated in the same way as the rooms above.
The ice coffin was bought from the dark market. It was expensive but also very exquisite. The servant carefully placed Jiang Zhiyu inside. The moment the coffin lid was closed, Jiang Zhaoying also heard the sound of the door of her heart being slammed shut.
"Brother, I'm sorry for wronging you."
Gently stroking the cold ice coffin, Jiang Zhaoying said this and turned away.
When she returned to the courtyard, everyone was there, waiting for her and the Crown Prince to come back. Zhou Ruogu was also there. When Jiang Zhaoying saw her, she hurried forward and asked softly.
"Ruogu, how is Tingyun?"
"His life has been saved, but his condition is not good and he needs to rest well."
Zhou Ruogu's eyes flickered slightly. What she said was still an exaggeration. Tingyun's condition was much more serious than she said. She seemed to be starting to have the idea of not wanting to live again. Although she persuaded her for a long time, Tingyun got better, but it was still not ideal.
"Then take Tingyun over and we will take care of him ourselves."
"She has been sent in. She said that since she is a member of the Jiang family, she must live in the Jiang family. She is now asking Uncle Jiang to include her in the family tree."
This is not a difficult thing!
She is a princess, and the Jiang family would be willing to accept her for any reason.
"Yang Pianpian has also moved in."
Jiang Zhaoying's eyelashes trembled violently when she heard this. She knew that they were deeply in love, but she didn't expect it to be so deep.
Just saying.
There were footsteps in the yard.
Jiang Zhaoying hurriedly stood up to greet them, but saw Yang Pianpian and Qiangwei supporting Princess Tingyun slowly walking towards them. All three of them had changed into women's clothes. When Jiang Zhaoying looked at the three beautiful yet sad faces, her eyes welled up and she stepped forward and bowed solemnly.
"Meet the three sisters-in-law."
These words made the three girls on the opposite side burst into tears.
They were all thinking, if Jiang Zhiyu were still alive, how happy and joyful he would be to hear these words from his sister-in-law.
But now...
"stand up."
Princess Tingyun whispered weakly, and then everyone hugged Tingyun and went to the hall together.
Jiang Jianzheng also changed his clothes, but he could no longer hide his half-white hair. Xu Zhiyan and A Yu were also there.
Although there was not a single piece of white forging in the mansion, nor could any mourning music be heard, everyone knew that everyone was filled with sorrow at the moment.
"Father."
Yang Pianpian led them all to salute Jiang Jianzheng. Jiang Jianzheng handed the gifts that he had prepared long ago to them one by one, and finally gave the key to Yang Pianpian.
"I'll have to work hard for you guys in the future, especially you, Tingyun. You need to take good care of yourself. We still have to avenge Zhiyu, so you can't fall down."
Tingyun was shocked, with a hint of hatred in his eyes.
yes.
I must not give up, no. Even if I can't help, at least I have to see the results.
"Yes, I remember that."
Tingyun agreed obediently. Zhou Ruogu, who was standing by, secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Sometimes, no matter whether it is hate or love, it is good to have one of them to hold on.
"You should go and have a rest first, get familiar with the house, and ask the maids if you have any questions. They were all carefully trained by Zhaoying's mother, and they can all be of great use."
"yes."
Yang Pianpian held the key tightly in her hand, bowed to everyone, and then took them away.
When I reached the gate of the courtyard.
She raised her head and looked around at the beautiful mansion, wiped her tears, and said softly.
"I won't let Zhiyu down."
"Neither can I."
Tingyun was supported by a maid and also made a soft promise.
"Neither do I."
Qiangwei also stepped forward and spoke, and Yang Pianpian patted her hands.
"Qianwei, if you want to leave..."
Qiangwei was so scared that she fell to her knees in front of Yang Pianpian.
"I won't leave. I will never disobey my two elder sisters. I will obey you in everything. As long as you don't let me leave, I will stay with you forever."
The words haven’t been finished yet.
Qiangwei fell headfirst, and Pianpian was so frightened that she caught her and quickly took her away to call a doctor.
…
In the hall.
The guards kept bringing in news from outside.
Now the whole capital is saying that Jiang Zhiyu flirted with the fourth young lady of the Liu family, and then was sentenced to death by the emperor. The Jiang family knows that they have lost face, and now they dare not even announce the funeral...
The Jiang family has become a new laughing stock in the capital.
even.
The gate of the Jiang Mansion was littered with all kinds of filthy things, and the servants didn't even dare to go out.
