Chapter 220 Xiao Chou is actually her
"No, there is nothing wrong with General Jiang and Jiang Nanjiao. Father did not punish them." Zhan Yao stomped his feet and said angrily.
This is what makes her most angry!
The one my father arranged to marry was the fourth daughter of the Jiang family. They knew it clearly but didn't say anything. It's a crime of deceiving the emperor, but my father and grandfather didn't punish them.
It's obvious that they are shielding them!
Bang——
Zhan Qingheng punched the tea table next to him, and in an instant, the table broke into pieces, "How can my father and grandfather be so partial to them!"
He is really angry!
He is the biggest victim. Doesn't your father feel unfair for him at all?
Zhan Yao looked at his furious face and said kindly, "Brother, I am also very angry, but we have to think long-term and cannot directly question our father."
Last time at the Royal Stables, she was too impulsive, which led to Jiang Nanjiao's scheme against her and caused her to be embarrassed.
She has to be careful in the future and not act rashly. After all, the fool is no longer a fool, and now that his memory has been restored, he should not be underestimated anymore.
The emperor did not tell her father about Jiang Nanjiao's entry into the palace yesterday. It was she who found out about it and then asked Qin Fu about it, and Qin Fu told her.
This morning, she hurried to Prince Rui's Mansion to find her brother.
As a result, I heard people discussing it on the road.
It must have been Jiang Nanjiao who spread it!
"I'll go ask my father. Don't worry, I'll ask him calmly." Zhan Qingheng slowly calmed down. He was not a fool.
It was obvious that the emperor had no intention of punishing Jiang Nanjiao.
But he still has to ask the questions he should ask, otherwise people will think he is easy to bully.
"I'll go with you." Zhan Yao said. She was afraid that her brother would be angry and lose control of himself, thus angering their father.
Zhan Qingheng nodded.
The two walked outside together.
…
Yangxin Palace.
The queen personally walked in with the ginseng soup and said, "Your Majesty, I have seen you."
Emperor Jingming looked at her, "Why are you here?"
"I know that Your Majesty has been busy lately, so I specially prepared ginseng soup for you. Please drink it while it's hot." The Queen walked forward and placed the exquisite porcelain bowl on the table.
"I've been feeling irritated lately, so I won't drink these." Emperor Jingming said indifferently. He was indeed feeling irritated.
First, Jiang Nanjiao concealed Jiang Zhiyan's identity.
Then, Chu Yue will go to Miaojiang in two days. After this departure, it will be difficult for him to see his beloved daughter again. How can he not be angry?
"Your Majesty, I specially asked the imperial physician to add some heat-clearing herbs in it." The queen said softly.
"Leave it there." Emperor Jingming waved his hands.
The Queen stopped trying to persuade him, "I heard from people around me today that there is a rumor in the capital that Jiang Zhiyan is not the fourth daughter of the General's Mansion. Does the Emperor know about this?"
Emperor Jingming looked up at her and said, "You are well-informed."
Yesterday, General Jiang and Jiang Nanjiao entered the palace.
He didn't tell anyone about this.
Why did the news spread in Beijing?
Was it spread by Jiang Nanjiao?
The Queen smiled faintly, "It was Nanny Yao who went out of the palace today to the Mercury Pavilion to get a set of jewelry for me. I happened to hear the rumor while walking on the street."
When Emperor Jingming saw her asking, he did not hide the truth, "Yesterday, General Jiang and Jiang Nanjiao came to the palace to apologize for hiding Jiang Zhiyan's identity."
The queen pretended to be shocked and said in exaggerated astonishment: "How could they conceal such a big thing? This is a serious crime of deceiving the emperor."
Emperor Jingming looked at her and said calmly, "How do you think I should handle this matter?"
The Queen quickly said, "I think the matter should be dealt with according to the law."
"It is written in the law that it can be handled at discretion. They came to me to apologize yesterday, and I do not intend to hold them accountable." Emperor Jingming said in a cold voice with a stern face.
"Not pursuing the matter? Your Majesty, this is a crime of deceiving the emperor." The queen took a deep breath, her heart suffocating, and her hands clenched tightly under her sleeves.
Her son is the biggest victim, and that's it???
Emperor Jingming's face darkened. "It was Qingheng who proposed to marry Jiang Zhiyan. Could it be that he would not marry her just because she is not a daughter of the Jiang family?"
"Do you want to marry her, or do you want to marry the fourth young lady of the Jiang family?"
The queen was choked, but she quickly responded, "Of course he wants to marry Jiang Zhiyan, but if she is not the fourth daughter of the Jiang family, she cannot be the principal wife."
"Qing Heng is a noble prince, how can his wife be a woman of unknown status?"
"Although I don't know who her parents are, she grew up in the general's mansion. In terms of talent and other aspects, she is no worse than the noble ladies in the capital." Emperor Jingming didn't think there was anything wrong.
"Your Majesty..." The Queen said unwillingly. The Jiang family was despicable. How could they hide such a big thing? The most important thing was that the Emperor would not pursue the matter.
This is what made her most angry.
Why should her son be bullied for nothing?
"The Queen knows how much General Jiang has done. Jiang Nanjiao cured the Crown Prince, and I promised to reward her. This time, her merits and demerits are offset."
"Did Qingheng get deceived like this?" The Queen looked angry.
"If you mind Jiang Zhiyan's identity, you can divorce her. I can find him a daughter of a famous family as his principal wife." Emperor Jingming said coldly with a dark face.
The Queen's heart instantly shattered into pieces, "If Qingheng divorces her, wouldn't it make everyone in the capital think that he married Jiang Zhiyan because of her status?"
"Then let's not divorce!" Emperor Jingming said unhappily.
"But……"
"Bei Heng married Jiang Nanjiao, but she was not innocent at the time, and he did not ask for a divorce. And why was he caught cheating with Jiang Nanjiao at the imperial banquet that night? Do I need to investigate it thoroughly?"
Emperor Jingming exuded a powerful and intimidating aura and looked at the empress with sharp eyes.
There are some things he doesn't say.
It doesn't mean he knows nothing.
Anyone who dared to tamper with the imperial banquet must be someone from the harem. Even if not, he must have had the assistance of someone from the harem.
When the queen was looked at by him, her heart trembled.
The incident of catching a cheating couple was indeed related to her. It was she who asked Jiang Zhiyan to trick Jiang Nanjiao over.
He wants Zhan Beiheng to marry the unpopular idiot in the general's mansion.
Make him a joke.
As a result, after they got married, the fact that she was not virginal indeed made the people of the capital city laugh at her.
I just didn't expect it to happen a few months later.
Jiang Nanjiao gave Zhan Beiheng her innocence five years ago and even gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix twins for him.
Now, they are the biggest winners.
The little ugly one turned out to be her.
Because it was she who brought about their marriage.
"Your Majesty, Prince Rui and the Fifth Princess are here." Qin Fu walked to the door of the hall and reported.
"No!" Emperor Jingming said angrily.
Thinking of what happened at the imperial banquet, he was filled with anger. At that time, he really couldn't accept that Jiang Nanjiao married into the Prince Jin's Palace.
But after that incident, and with the emperor emeritus asking for it, he had no choice but to grant the marriage.
Fortunately, Jiang Nanjiao changed after getting married.
Now it's an unexpected success.
If Jiang Nanjiao hadn't changed, and if her luck hadn't paid off, Bei Heng would have been laughed at behind his back.
The Queen took a deep breath and said calmly, "Your Majesty is right. I will tell Qing Heng what you said. I will take my leave now."
Having said that, she bowed, turned around and left quickly.
Damn Jiang family!
