Chapter 176 Mo Qingcheng and Jiang Jue
Zhang Shen was the first to stand up and refute, his sharp voice rang out.
"Jiang Jue, you are lying. You clearly have a sexual relationship. The letter is the best proof!"
Jiang Jue said calmly: "Everything is done on my own initiative. Your Majesty is not aware of it. Everything was done by me. It has nothing to do with Your Majesty!"
Hearing him say this, Mo Cangyan knew that he wanted to take all the blame on himself. For the sake of the Queen's face, he could only let him say this.
But Zhang Shen had finally caught Feng Xiyao's handle, so how could he let her go so easily? He continued to speak.
"Master Jiang said that the Queen has no feelings for you, so why did she give you the jade pendant?"
"You keep it in your arms every day, and take it out from time to time to remind yourself of the old man. What is the reason for your behavior? Are you secretly contacting each other behind the emperor's back, hoping to rekindle your old love?"
Feng Xiyao glared at the woman who was speaking: "Concubine Shen, please don't go too far. I have already said that I am only giving you the jade pendant to thank Lord Jiang for saving my life!"
Zhang Shen sneered: "Did the emperor know when the empress gave the jade pendant to you? You didn't dare to tell the emperor, isn't it because you have something to hide?"
“…”
Feng Xiyao bit her lip. The reason she didn't tell Mo Cangyan was that she felt it was unnecessary...
Seeing that she was silent, Zhang Shen seemed to have found a breakthrough.
"So the reason why the Queen didn't tell the Emperor is because she still has Jiang Jue in her heart and she's afraid that the Emperor will blame you if he finds out!"
"Sir Jiang, you are trying your best to take all the blame on yourself. Now that you see that the queen still loves you, you can die with peace of mind!"
“…”
Before Zhang Shen could be happy for long, a crisp voice came in.
"Concubine Shen is wrong. The jade pendant in Lord Jiang's arms belongs to me!" Mo Qingcheng walked in.
“…”
Everyone looked confused, not knowing what she meant.
Mo Qingcheng walked over and spoke lightly.
"Concubine Shen has always said that Lord Jiang often holds the jade pendant given by the Queen to remind him of someone she loved, but are you sure he is holding the jade pendant given by the Queen?"
Zhang Shen thought that he had sent people to keep an eye on Jiang Jue for such a long time, so it was impossible that he was wrong, and he said with a firm face.
"Of course!"
"Well, since Concubine Shen has said so, Lord Jiang should take out the jade pendant in his arms and see if it is the one given by the Queen!"
Jiang Jue hesitated and frowned.
Seeing that he was hesitating, Mo Qingcheng reached into his arms and took the thing out.
Seeing the similar jade pendant, Zhang Shen looked very proud.
"Your Majesty, look, I have said that the Queen and Jiang Jue have an affair, but he has been carrying this jade pendant in his arms all the time!"
Feng Xiyao noticed that the jade pendant was not given by him, but it looked similar.
“…”
Mo Cangyan looked coldly and said nothing.
Mo Qingcheng took the jade pendant to Zhang Shen and said, "Concubine Shen, you should go see the imperial physician to check your eyes. This is not a gift from the empress."
Zhang Shen frowned: "How is it possible? Who else could have sent it besides the Queen?"
Mo Qingcheng raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Jiang Jue is knowledgeable and talented, handsome, and many young ladies from official families secretly admire him."
"It's a pity that he already has a lover, this princess. This jade pendant was also given to him by this princess!"
Zhang Shen gritted his teeth and said, "Princess, how can you prove that it was you who gave it to me?"
Mo Qingcheng looked at Mo Cangyan who had a cold face: "Royal brother, can you ask someone to take it over and have a look? There is a word "City" printed on the back of this jade pendant, which is exactly the "City" in my name!"
Eunuch Hai took it and looked at it, and immediately agreed: "Your Majesty, there is indeed a word for city!"
“…”
Now, not to mention that Zhang Shen was shocked, Jiang Jue was also a little confused. How could this happen and he didn't even know about it.
"How is this possible? Impossible!"
Mo Qingcheng: "So there is no romantic relationship between the Queen and Lord Jiang. Everything is a deliberate frame-up by Concubine Shen!"
Zhang Shen knelt down and shook his head: "It's not the emperor. I really don't have any. It was obviously the queen herself..."
Mo Cangyan interrupted in a cold voice: "That's enough, the facts are already here, you still want to quibble!"
Zhang Shen burst into tears instantly.
"Your Majesty, even if the jade pendant is not the one given by the Queen, the relationship between Jiang Jue and the Queen is indeed unclear. And the letter is also evidence of their relationship!"
Jiang Jue knelt straight, "Your Majesty, I have already said it, everything is what I want, Your Majesty does not know, that letter was also written by me, it has nothing to do with Your Majesty!"
Mo Qingcheng also knelt down: "Yes, my brother, Lord Jiang only admired the emperor's sister-in-law a long time ago, but now he no longer has feelings for her. He likes Weimei now. How could he still have a relationship with the emperor's sister-in-law when he is wearing the jade pendant given by me every day!"
“…”
Feng Xiyao knew that the two of them were trying to save her, and she felt touched. However, when she met Mo Cangyan's cold gaze, her heart still turned cold.
Looking at Feng Xiyao who remained silent, Mo Cangyan curled his lips and smiled softly.
"Since you two are so in love and appreciate each other, I will grant you a marriage. It just so happens that there has been no happy event in the palace for many years!"
Jiang Jue didn't want Mo Qingcheng to sacrifice his entire life's happiness in order to save her, so she refused out loud.
"Your Majesty, the princess and I are just...just ordinary friends. We are not yet at the stage of talking about marriage..."
"Why, Lord Jiang wants to disobey the order?" Mo Cangyan cast a cold gaze on him.
On body.
How could Mo Qingcheng not know that his brother the emperor had seen through his acting? He was already backing down. Fearing that the emperor would really get angry, he immediately pulled Jiang Jue to kowtow and express his gratitude.
"Ajue, stop talking. It's such a great thing that the emperor has arranged a marriage for us. Why don't you thank the emperor?"
Jiang Jue received the warning in Mo Qingcheng's eyes and knew that the emperor wanted to end his thoughts about Feng Xiyao. In order to keep her, he was willing to do anything.
He followed Mo Qingcheng and kowtowed deeply.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the marriage!"
“…”
Zhang Shen was dumbfounded. How could things develop in this direction? This shouldn't be the case! !
She was about to speak, but was stopped by Mo Cangyan.
"Zhang Shen framed the empress and was demoted to Zhaoyi and sent to the cold palace!"
"The princess and her husband are in love and will be married next month!"
After the decree was issued, Zhang Shen was dragged away with his mouth covered.
Mo Qingcheng and Jiang Jue also left the Purple Gold Palace.
Zhou Ninghai knew that the emperor and the empress had something to say, so he led the palace maids and eunuchs out of the room and closed the door.
In an instant, Feng Xiyao and Mo Cangyan were the only ones left in the room.
Thinking about the look Jiang Jue gave her just now, Feng Xiyao felt a sudden pain in her heart.
Seeing that she was looking towards the place where Jiang Jue left, Mo Cangyan grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms.
"The Queen seems very dissatisfied with my marriage proposal!"
Knowing that he was deliberately trying to displease her, Feng Xiyao looked at him calmly.
"Mo Cangyan, you knew they were lying, so why did you still arrange the marriage? Are you happy to tie two people who don't love each other together?"
