The person who came was Ji Xiangying. Su Man did not punish him for his mother's crime. He was still Ji Concubine.
But without the protection of his family, his life in the palace was not easy. He had lost noticeable weight and his clothes were not as fancy as before.
His eyes were red and he didn't even greet Suman when he saw her.
Wu Xia saw this and scolded him, "How dare you refuse to kneel before His Majesty."
Su Man raised her hand to stop Wu Xia. Facing Ji Xiangying's resentful gaze, she said calmly, "Tell me, what do you want to see me for?"
This sentence seemed to have triggered something. Ji Xiangying, like an erupting volcano, asked in rapid succession, "My grandmother made great military achievements for the court, and my mother devoted herself to the army. Your Majesty, you have listened to the slander of villains and distanced yourself from virtuous officials in favor of villains. Aren't you afraid that the people will say that you can't distinguish right from wrong?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone around felt their scalps tingle, and a few big words were written on everyone's face: You don't want to live anymore.
But Ji Xiangying was used to being arrogant and thought he had special privileges. Instead of quickly kowtow and confess his guilt, he kept talking to himself, "If my grandmother hadn't been here, what would have happened to Your Majesty and Dayong when there was another war?"
In the long alley, Ji Xiangying's words were so powerful that it seemed as if what he said was the truth.
Su Man did not get angry. She walked closer to Ji Xiangying step by step. The aura she exuded made Ji Xiangying's arrogance inexplicably lower.
"Your grandmother was responsible for the sins your mother committed. Who will help you bear the responsibility for your great sin of disrespect today?"
Ji Xiangying was stunned. He always said whatever he wanted to say and never thought he would be convicted. So he said stubbornly, "I don't need anyone to help me. I will do it alone."
Su Man nodded, "Okay, as you wish."
"Ji Concubine has committed treason and has made irresponsible remarks about state affairs. Therefore, her position as Concubine is abolished and she is banished to the cold palace."
"yes."
After Wu Xia received the order, she said to the palace servants behind her, "What are you still standing there for? Why don't you drag the person away?"
The palace servants followed the order and stepped forward, but were all pushed away by Ji Xiangying. He pushed and shoved them, saying, "Who dares to touch me! I am..."
"Descendants of the Marshal?"
Su Man said indifferently, "Your protection has expired. From today on, you will be responsible for your every word and action."
Ji Xiangying was stunned. Looking at Su Man's eyes without any emotion, he suddenly understood something.
He belatedly began to realize his fear. No, he couldn't go to the cold palace. He couldn't go.
"Your Majesty, Xiang Ying is wrong. Xiang Ying is confused. Please don't send Xiang Ying to the cold palace. Please."
However, no matter how much he begged, he couldn't make Suman change her mind.
