Chapter 644 His Majesty softens

He thought that he was always a cautious person, but he could never handle the affairs in the backyard well.

My wife is not presentable and is not clear about important matters.

She often clashed with him, so after a long time, he began to dislike her and naturally seldom went to her yard.

In comparison, he naturally went to his concubine's courtyard more often.

However, he thought that he had done his best towards his wife.

Although she often treated concubines harshly, the power of the household was still in her hands, and she also paid great attention and care to the two children she gave birth to.

The only thing is that I have no feelings for her.

"I am guilty." Having said this, Lord Jiang knelt down.

When the Great Chu Emperor saw him like this, he knew that he would not be able to ask him anything today.

He sighed lightly, and simply stopped trying to hide it and spoke frankly.

"The porcelain bottle found on Madam Jiang today contained aphrodisiacs. Madam, you are trying to frame the Imperial Concubine at the palace banquet."

"What!?" Lord Jiang had never expected that his wife would be so bold. He was so shocked that he raised his head abruptly and looked at the emperor in front of him, forgetting the previous etiquette.

"Your Majesty, is this serious?" He actually dared to frame the Imperial Concubine?

This Imperial Concubine, not to mention how high her status is in the harem, even she herself has made contributions to the Great Chu State that are recognized by the world.

How dare you do such a thing?

But the Emperor of Great Chu did not respond to him, but just stared at him steadily.

Seeing His Majesty like this, Lord Jiang knew that this matter was not false.

A wave of despair surged in his heart, fearing that his career would be ruined by his own wife.

Not only that, I'm afraid the entire Jiang family will be destroyed because of what she did today.

Thinking of this, he knelt deeply on the ground, bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, I am willing to take on this matter."

"What Madam does is my Jiang family's business."

The Emperor of Great Chu originally wanted to see his attitude. Seeing that he now looked quite responsible, he actually felt somewhat happy.

So his mood was not that bad. He just waved to Mr. Jiang in front of him and said, "You don't have to be so nervous."

"The incident was discovered in time and did not cause any other consequences."

"You should thank Princess Yong'an. If it weren't for Princess Yong'an, your wife would have already..."

Already dead.

The Great Chu Emperor never said this out loud, but I think Lord Jiang must have understood it.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, and thank you, Princess." Lord Jiang probably understood what His Majesty meant, which was that the Jiang family would not be affected, so he did not care about anything else and just kowtowed and thanked him.

"I will definitely go to Qingyun Palace to pay my respects to you."

Thinking of this, he felt something was wrong: "I will definitely let my daughter go to Qingyun Palace to pay her respects."

Now that this has happened, he naturally dares not mention his wife's name again. How to deal with her will ultimately be decided by His Majesty.

But there is no escape from death.

Your Majesty, by not taking any action, you are saving face for yourself and the Jiang family, but you must be sensible.

"That's not necessary." The Emperor of Great Chu had naturally heard what Wanwan said just now. Jiang Yun was close to Xing Hui.

Although he hoped that Wanwan and Xinghui could live in harmony, he also knew that so many things had happened. Moreover, in the original storyline, Wanwan was killed by Concubine De.

I think Wanwan, who is bold in love and hate, will not easily forgive Xinghui.

That’s it!

He didn't expect the two of them to live in peace or anything. It would be best if there were no conflicts between them in the future.

So he could understand why Wanwan didn't like Jiang Yun.

Since Wanwan doesn't like her, don't let her appear in front of Wanwan and cause trouble for the mother and daughter.

"But you, my wife, are, after all, a member of an official family. Since nothing has been done wrong, you are the one who has to deal with it."

After hearing what Your Majesty said, Lord Jiang understood what Your Majesty meant.

My wife has committed such a serious mistake, and she is already guilty of a capital crime. For the sake of the Jiang family, she should...

Maybe there is another way.

At the very least, she will not be allowed to appear in the capital city again in the future, and this will save her life.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to let Madam go up to the mountain to practice as a warning to you."

"For the rest of her life, she stayed with the ancient Buddha and prayed for the Imperial Concubine and Princess Yong'an."

The Jiang family must not be destroyed in the hands of a woman.

"I will never favor my wife in the slightest," said Lord Jiang, who then fell to the ground again, as if waiting for His Majesty to speak and agree.

Unexpectedly, the Emperor of Chu fell silent.

The atmosphere in Yu's study suddenly became tense. The Great Chu Emperor looked back and forth at Lord Jiang, but did not make a decision.

He didn't want to let Mrs. Jiang go.

But Lord Jiang is begging for mercy.

He suddenly felt that he should ask Wanwan about this matter. Looking at Wanwan's expression today, she was clearly furious. If he let Mrs. Jiang go like this, would it be...

"Meng Quande!" Thinking of this, the Great Chu Emperor no longer responded to Lord Jiang's words, but called Meng Quande, who was serving outside, in and asked, "Is Mrs. Jiang settled?"

"Your Majesty, the arrangements have been made."

"Master Jiang, you don't have to leave the palace tonight. Stay in the palace. I still need to consider this matter."

He still wanted to ask Qingyan what she thought.

How could Lord Jiang disobey what Your Majesty said?

He nodded quickly, and seeing that His Majesty had no intention of continuing, he followed Meng Quande out.

When Meng Quande walked out, he happened to meet someone from the Imperial Household Department, who was walking hurriedly towards the study.

"Eunuch Meng, are you still busy so late?" The chief steward of the Imperial Household Department came in person, of course he had important business. Although his position was not low, the person in front of him was after all a servant of the emperor. The concubines in the palace had to give him some face, not to mention themselves.

"Manager Zhao, this is..."

The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Zhao Zongguan, looked at Meng Quande uncomfortably and said, "Eunuch Meng, you don't know that His Majesty hasn't been to the harem for a month."

"The Queen Mother asked about this today and was a little angry, so..."

Meng Quande hurried forward and waved his hand at him, saying in a low voice: "General Manager Zhao, there is no need to go. His Majesty is not in a good mood today."

While saying this, Meng Quande winked at Chief Steward Zhao in front of him, indicating Lord Jiang who was following behind him.

Manager Zhao understood instantly.
