Chapter 329 Happy Event
In the imperial study.
Xiao Jue knelt in the room.
Emperor Kangze stepped forward and slapped him in the face.
Xiao Jue was hit so hard that his face twisted to the side.
"Look what you've done!"
Emperor Kangze was so angry that the veins on his forehead were throbbing.
Xiao Jue was very unconvinced, but he did not dare to act rashly in front of Emperor Kangze, "Father, I was also plotted against because I was not careful. Even if I was confused, I would never touch the Prime Minister's wife."
"The fact that you can be tricked by others means that you are still stupid!"
Xiao Jue said nothing.
"I will try to put the blame on Genji Koe for this matter. You just stay here and behave yourself. If anything goes wrong again, I will treat you as if I don't have a son!"
Although Emperor Kangze found someone to clean up his mess, Xiao Jue still refused to accept it. He was framed in this matter in the first place, but instead of going after the people who framed him, they kept blaming him.
Xiao Jue slowly raised his head, and his eyes gradually changed as he looked at Emperor Kangze.
He is already nearly fifty years old, but he is still clinging to that position and is still unwilling to appoint a crown prince. How long will he wait?
Xiao Jue felt that he really didn't want to wait even one more day!
…
Inside the Prince of Qi’s Palace.
Bai Shuang walked into the room carrying a food box, put the food on the table and said softly, "Princess, Xiao Jiang Yuanji hanged herself, and left a letter of apology, saying that she seduced the eldest prince and drugged him. The emperor has ordered that no one should mention this matter again in the future."
Su Ying raised her head. The world of power is so cruel.
Although Xiao Jiang Yuanji deserved it, then didn’t Xiao Jue deserve to die?
The weaker party is always the one being sacrificed. "They didn't even give her a chance to divorce her. They simply don't intend to give the Prime Minister's Mansion face."
The Prime Minister's Office has considerable power, but it is impossible for it to suppress the imperial power. Once the royal family opens its mouth, not to mention Xiao Jiang Yuanji, even Prime Minister Su will have to die.
"During this period of time, don't leave the palace easily. Keep an eye on the young master and the others."
People like Xiao Jue don't have much ability, but they are good at doing things in a shady way. If they didn't want to uproot the power behind him, he wouldn't be able to still be around now.
"Don't worry, Princess. The butler has already sent more people to guard the palace. No one will be able to take advantage of it."
"Let's not talk about these disappointing things. How is Lin Zhuyu's preparation going?"
In a few days, it will be Lin Zhuyu and Jiang Yang’s wedding day. Su Ying is still looking forward to it.
"The butler said that everything is almost ready and we are just waiting for the day."
Lin Zhuyu was going to get married at Su Ying's house. The night before her wedding, Su Ying had someone send her to the house. Fearing that she would be nervous, she was considerate enough to let Bai Shuang go along.
The next day, everyone in the palace got up early.
Zhao Neng and the others urged and followed Jiang Yang to pick up the bride.
Xiao Jin and Su Ying, as witnesses today, also got up early.
Children like to be lively, so after breakfast, the two children ran to the front yard to join in the fun.
Su Ying looked at the red silk and wedding characters all over the palace, and her mood became cheerful. She suddenly liked this festive atmosphere because it made her feel like there were people all around her.
There were not many guests at the banquet today. They were all a group of comrades in the military camp. Xiao Jin went to the front yard to greet them after they arrived.
Many comrades also brought their families with them, but only a few of them dared to approach Su Ying and get close to her.
Su Ying sat on the side eating melon seeds, waiting for Jiang Yang to bring Lin Zhuyu back so that she could sit in the wedding hall in the front yard.
On the other side, Lin Zhuyu was sitting in the house anxiously waiting for Jiang Yang's arrival.
Although the two had lived together in the Northern Wilderness for more than a year, she couldn't help but feel nervous when she thought about marrying him soon.
Bai Shuang brought some snacks into the house and said, "Let's eat something first."
Lin Zhuyu just took a sweet-scented osmanthus candy and put it in her mouth, "Bai Shuang, don't worry, you will find your home soon."
Bai Shuang said unconcernedly, "I'm not in a hurry. When you give birth, I will be the first person to serve the princess, with a group of followers. It will be so impressive."
Lin Zhuyu was too nervous now and didn't argue with her.
Outside the yard, a carriage suddenly stopped, which made the servants waiting outside the door wonder, as this was not the way to pick up a bride.
A slightly plump figure walked down from the carriage.
The two maids guarding the door took the initiative to step forward and ask, "Is there anything wrong with this master?"
Lin Jin glanced at the old woman and said, "I'm here to take my daughter home."
The two old women exchanged glances and both felt that he had come to the wrong door.
"This master may be mistaken. Your daughter is not here."
Lin Jin snorted coldly, "Isn't it Lin Zhuyu who is in there? I'm her father, ask her to come out and see me."
The two old women didn't expect that Lin Zhuyu's father would come to their house. They didn't know much about Lin Zhuyu's situation, so they still planned to go in and ask about it.
"Sir, please wait a moment. We will go in and ask you first."
Lin Jin nodded and had no intention of forcing his way in.
One of the women came outside.
"Miss Lin, there's someone outside the door, saying he's your father and wants you to go see him."
Lin Zhuyu's expression changed, "What, my father?"
"Yes, the person is outside. I don't know him and I dare not let him in."
“Don’t let him in!” Lin Zhuyu’s face turned pale instantly.
Bai Shuang knew what the Lin family had done to Lin Zhuyu. She said, "Don't let anyone in. Let the guards in the yard take them away."
Seeing that the two men looked unhappy, the old woman quickly responded and went out the door.
Lin Jin didn't wait for Lin Zhuyu to show up, his face looked very bad, "Where is she?"
"Sir, I'm afraid you've come to the wrong place. We don't have the daughter you're looking for here."
Lin Jin was furious. His men clearly saw Lin Zhuyu go in, so how could they have made a mistake?
"Lin Zhuyu must be inside, please let me in."
Two guards stepped forward to stop Lin Jin, "There's no one here for you, so leave now!"
"How dare you! I am the Minister of Industry. How dare you stop me?"
The guard remained calm and said, "No matter who you are, if you dare to break in, you will be punished for trespassing!"
"You, you guys are awesome! Okay, okay, if she doesn't come out, I'll wait there!"
Lin Jin was furious, and he got back on the carriage and asked the driver to go to the Prince of Qi's mansion.
Not long after, there was a noisy sound not far away. It was Jiang Yang who brought people to pick up the bride.
There was a deafening sound of firecrackers outside the courtyard gate.
Jiang Yang happily jumped on his horse and walked into the yard to pick up Lin Zhuyu.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Yang asked, feeling that something was wrong with Lin Zhuyu?
Lin Zhuyu looked around through the veil, and when she didn't see Lin Jin, she breathed a sigh of relief, "Nothing, don't delay the auspicious time, let's go."
