Chapter 187 Let the Emperor support her? Game over

How could Madam Du not hear what Jiang Youning meant? She

said that Du Huilan was older than her and had married into the General's Mansion, not in her natal family, so she could do whatever she wanted.

She finally got the words back, but Jiang Youning's words made her speechless again. She

was not as stupid and ignorant as the rumors said.

No wonder her daughter couldn't beat her. With such a scheming woman, her daughter was afraid that she would suffer.

No matter what, she came to the General's Mansion today to defend her daughter. Otherwise, how could her daughter survive in the General's Mansion in the future?

"Madam Xie, I came here today for my daughter."

Jiang Youning knew that Madam Du was going to get to the point when she heard it. It was really tiring to talk to them. Can't you just say it directly? You have to take a few detours, but you still have to say it?

"Madam Du, please speak."

Madam Du said, "My daughter was punished by Madam Xie to kneel in the Buddhist temple with a cane a few days ago. Is this true?"

Jiang Youning admitted generously, "It is true, but Madam Du does not need to lecture the Second Madam anymore. The Second Madam has already known her mistakes. I am not the kind of person who will not let go of mistakes. Knowing mistakes can lead to improvement. Madam Du, don't you think so?"

Madam Du almost vomited blood when she heard this. She was always dignified, but now she couldn't help but want to curse.

She came to make the decision for her daughter. Who was going to punish her?

"Mrs. Xie is right. My daughter cannot be caned even if she makes a mistake again. If she hurts herself, Mrs. Xie will not be able to bear it."

Jiang Youning glanced at Du Huilan, "Mrs. Du, do you think the second wife is okay now?"

Mrs. Du glanced at her daughter beside her and snorted, "It's okay now, but there's no guarantee that something will happen next time."

Jiang Youning laughed when she heard it, "Mrs. Du is really a joke. She made a mistake once, so why would she make it a second time? The second wife is really... She is so smart that she will not make the same mistake again."

Madam Du was so angry that she gnashed her teeth and did not care about the quarrel. She slammed the table and stood up, "Madam Xie, you beat my daughter with 20 boards, and you want to let it go? Do you really think that my Du family is easy to bully?"

Jiang Youning blinked her innocent eyes, "What is the reason for Madam Du's words? As the mistress of the general's mansion, I can't punish the second house if it makes a mistake, right?"

Without waiting for Madam Du to speak, Jiang Youning Ning said again, "This is the general's residence. Madam Du, are you taking advantage of the fact that the general is not at home and are here to act wildly?" Madam Du

snorted, "You bullied my daughter first, can't I make a decision for my daughter? Do you take us seriously?"

Jiang Youning also stood up and said coldly, "Madam Du, I respect you as an elder, and I won't care about your rudeness. You take advantage of the fact that the general is not at home and come here to act wildly. I am not used to it. . "

Mrs. Du said, "Don't slander me. I'm here to reason with you. You're going too far."

Jiang Youning said, "I'm a first-rank lady, and my husband is a general. Mrs. Du was born in a scholarly family and is very particular about etiquette. When you came in, you didn't show any courtesy, you didn't follow reason, and you were rude and arrogant. People who don't know would think that Mrs. Du is a street woman."

A higher-ranking official can crush a person to death. Xie Jing's identity is enough to make Mrs. Du unable to raise her head.

How could Mrs. Du be speechless after being confronted by a yellow-haired girl?

In the end, Mrs. Du left Lingxi Courtyard with a lot of anger.

Du Huilan saw that Jiang Youning was so powerful that even her mother couldn't do anything about it. The only person she could rely on was her grandfather.

"Mother, we can only ask Grandpa for help on this matter."

Mrs. Du said, "Your Grandpa is seriously ill, I'm afraid... I'll try."

For the happiness of her daughter, she had to try no matter what.

With Mrs. Du's words, Du Huilan had expectations in her heart. Grandpa doted on her so much, he would definitely help her.

Mrs. Du returned to General Du's mansion and could not wait a moment to find General Du.

General Du had been recuperating in his own yard since he recovered from his serious illness.

Mrs. Du came in after the servant informed her. Seeing the old man sitting on the rattan chair, she stepped forward and bowed, "Dad."

General Du raised his eyes and glanced at his daughter-in-law, "Is there anything wrong?"

Mrs. Du said, "Dad, Lan'er came back today and cried in my arms for a long time. She was very wronged."

General Du frowned when he heard this, "What did she suffer?"

Mrs. Du told the old man about the grievances her daughter had suffered.

"Dad, Mrs. Xie relied on being Xie Jing's legal wife to bully Lan'er. I went to her house to reason with her, but she was arrogant and self-righteous, saying that I was going to her house to make trouble and that our Du family was not as good as her Xie family." General

Du spent his whole life in the military and made great military achievements. Xie Jing was brought up by him.

Hearing what his daughter-in-law said, he was naturally a little unhappy.

"Did she really say that?"

Madam Du said, "Dad, how could I lie to you? That Jiang is very scheming. Who knows how much suffering and grievances our Lan'er has suffered in the general's mansion?"

General Du frowned when he heard this, "When I went to the battlefield to kill the enemy, she didn't even know where she was!"

Madam Du wiped her tears, "Dad, you have to make a decision for Lan'er."

General Du snorted, "Do you really think that there is no one in my Du family who dares to bully my granddaughter like this?"

"Prepare the carriage, I want to go to the palace to see the emperor."

Madam Du was delighted when she heard this. With the support of the old man, she was not afraid that the emperor would not punish Jiang Youning.

After entering the palace, General Du went straight to Yu's study.

When he arrived at Yu's study, Eunuch Li reported.

"Your Majesty, General Du wants to see you for something."

Xiao Yun raised his head and looked surprised when he learned that General Du had come. "Let him in quickly."

"Yes." Not long after Eunuch Li left, General Du walked in and saluted.

"Long live the emperor."

Xiao Yun said, "My dear Du, please stand up quickly."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." General Du stood up and looked up at the emperor.

Xiao Yun said, "My dear Du, you have just recovered from a serious illness. What's the matter with you rushing to see me?"

General Du said, "Your Majesty, I came here today for my granddaughter. At first, my granddaughter insisted on marrying as a co-wife. I thought Xie Jing would treat Lan'er well. But since the wedding, Xie Jing has not consummated the marriage with Lan'er. That's fine, but Madam Xie bullied Lan'er and made her kneel in the Buddhist temple. How could Lan'er have suffered such an injustice? My daughter-in-law came to reason with her, but was bullied by Madam Xie." General

Du knelt on the ground again, "I hope Your Majesty will make the decision for my granddaughter."

Xiao Yun frowned when he heard this. Is Jiang Youning so powerful?

He thought she only knew how to eat.

Xiao Yun soothed him, "Lord Du, please calm down. This is Xie Jing's inner court matter. Xie Jing is still fighting on the battlefield. I can't interfere. But Lord Du is here, so I can't just sit back and watch."

Xiao Yun pondered for a moment and said, "Lord Du, please come with me to the General's Mansion and ask about the whole story. I will see how the situation turns out. What do you think?"

General Du clasped his fists and bowed, "I will listen to the emperor's arrangements."

Xiao Yun nodded, "Get up, General's Mansion."

Jiang Youning was still taking a nap when Chuntao woke her up. "Miss, wake up, don't sleep anymore."

Jiang Youning closed her eyes and muttered, "Don't call me if it's not a big deal."

Chuntao was so anxious, "Miss, the emperor is here."

Jiang Youning lay there without moving. After two seconds, she suddenly opened her eyes and looked back at Chuntao, "The emperor is here?"

Chuntao said, "Isn't it? The emperor and General Du came together."

Jiang Youning was stunned for a moment, and then she understood why the emperor came.

She got up neatly and put on her makeup.

Then she hurried to greet the emperor.

Xiao Yun saw Jiang Youning's hurried steps. He came a little suddenly, so it was no wonder that she was late to greet him.

Jiang Youning stepped forward and led everyone in the mansion to kneel down and pay homage to the emperor.

"Long live the emperor."

Xiao Yun said, "Stand up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Jiang Youning stood up and stepped aside to make way.

Xiao Yun walked in with great strides.

General Du followed closely behind.

Jiang Youning glanced at General Du. It was great to have her family. Mrs. Du left and General Du came. She also invited the emperor.

She was really honored!

Xiao Yun sat on the first seat and glanced at everyone present, finally landing on Jiang Youning, "Jiang, General Du said that you punished Du for no reason, is that true?"

Jiang Youning knew that this was the reason for this. She stepped forward and replied, "Your Majesty, this is not the case. It was Du who fabricated the story and insulted me first, and I punished Du to copy the Diamond Sutra. But not only did Du not copy it, but her attitude was also very bad. "She was mean, saying that I was not as good as her and had no qualifications to discipline her. If I did not severely punish Mrs. Du, I was afraid that everyone in the mansion would follow suit. My face was a small matter, but if outsiders knew that the people in the general's mansion were so undisciplined, it would be a loss for the general."

Xiao Yun frowned after hearing this. Jiang Youning's family background was indeed not as good as Du Huilan's, and Du Huilan loved Xie Jing, but Xie Jing married someone else, and he must have been resentful in his heart.

In this case, how could she accept Jiang Youning's discipline?

He looked at General Du, "My dear Du, you heard it too. Mrs. Du was at fault first and refused to repent, so Mrs. Jiang punished her severely."

General Du turned to Du Huilan, "Lan'er, what's going on?"

Du Huilan explained, "Madam lied, I didn't disrespect her."

General Du looked at Xiao Yun again, "Your Majesty, you can't trust everything Mrs. Jiang says."

Xiao Yun's eyes flashed with impatience, and he looked at Jiang Youning, "Mrs. Jiang, what about you?"

Jiang Youning said, "I dare not deceive Your Majesty. Mrs. Du thinks I'm lying, so find someone to prove me wrong. What the wife said was false."

Xiao Yun looked at Du Huilan again, "Du, do you have any evidence?"

Du Huilan said, "My maid can testify."

Xiao Yun said, "Your maid is one of us, and cannot be a witness."

Du Huilan pursed her lips, and suddenly thought of something. She looked at Jiang Youning provocatively and asked, "Then what evidence does the madam have to prove that I was disrespectful to the madam?"

Jiang Youning met Du Huilan's provocative eyes, "Of course there is."

Du Huilan sneered, "One of our own cannot be a witness."

Jiang Youning smiled slightly and ordered, "Call all the people who were present that day."

"Yes, madam." The housekeeper responded, and soon after he left, he came in with a group of people, and all bowed to Xiao Yun.

"Long live the emperor."

For a moment, people knelt on the ground in the hall.

Xiao Yun's eyes were cold, "Tell me what happened that day."

"Your Majesty, that day I was repairing the pavilion in the yard and heard the second lady speak ill of you, and you punished her to copy the Diamond Sutra."

"That day I was sweeping fallen leaves and heard the second lady disrespect you, so she was punished to copy the Diamond Sutra."

"The second lady didn't copy the Diamond Sutra. When you asked, she said that you were not worthy of disciplining her because of her family status."

"The second lady spoke fiercely, and when you punished her, her mother who came with her as a dowry stepped forward to stop her."

Du Huilan looked at the people kneeling on the ground. With every word, her face turned pale, and she held the handkerchief tightly in her hand, wishing she could seal their mouths.

After the servant finished speaking, Jiang Youning spoke, "They are all servants doing rough work in the mansion, managed by the housekeeper. I just saw them today. If you don't believe me, you can ask the housekeeper."

The housekeeper bowed and stepped forward, "Your Majesty, everything the lady said is true."

Xiao Yun looked at Jiang Youning's calm and composed appearance, which made him look at her with new eyes.

He looked at Du Huilan, "Do you have anything else to say?"

Du Huilan knelt on the ground and kowtowed; "I know my fault."

Xiao Yun said coldly, "Ms. Du still doesn't repent and tries to find her family to support her. My dear Du, what do you have to say?"

General Du only knew the true story at this time. Although he felt sorry for his granddaughter who couldn't marry, he distorted the facts and asked him to go to the emperor. This embarrassment was brought to the emperor.

He bowed and said with a guilty tone, "It is my fault for not teaching you well. I will teach you a lesson."

Xiao Yun said, "General Du loves his grandson very much, I understand that, but Mrs. Du should be disciplined. If there is a next time, I will not let her off lightly."

General Du said, "I will discipline her strictly and live up to the grace of the emperor."

Xiao Yun glanced at Du Huilan coldly, "Ms. Du is jealous and disrespectful to her elders. She will be punished with ten strokes of the cane and have to copy the female rules and give them to Mrs. Jiang." Du Huilan

just breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the emperor's words. Her face turned pale. She thought that the grandfather's admonition was enough, but she didn't expect the emperor to punish her.

After the matter was resolved, General Du took Du Huilan back to the Du family to discipline her.

After everyone had left, Xiao Yun spoke: "Ms. Jiang, Xie Jing is not in the mansion. You have managed such a large house. It is really hard work. I reward you with a great reward."

Jiang Youning almost didn't react when she heard that the emperor wanted to reward her. This could be a reward?

After being stunned, she bowed to express her gratitude.

Xiao Yun glanced at Jiang Youning for a few times, then retracted his gaze and drove back to the palace.

Jiang Youning watched the emperor's guard of honor leave the general's mansion in a mighty manner. Later she realized that Xiao Yun was afraid that she would be wronged and would not be able to explain to Xie Jing, so he rewarded her as a consolation.

In ancient times, although she did not have a powerful family, she had a powerful boyfriend.

Du Huilan was punished by General Du to kneel on the ground as soon as she returned to the Du Mansion.

Mrs. Du rushed over upon hearing the news. Seeing her daughter kneeling on the ground, she looked at her father sitting on the chair in confusion, "Dad, what's going on? Why let Lan'er kneel on the ground?"

General Du shouted angrily, "Kneel down for me too."

Mrs. Du was startled and knelt down hurriedly, "Dad, why are you so angry?"
