Jiang Mingwan also rushed over at that moment.
"Father, what's wrong, Father?"
Upon seeing the mangled body on the bed, she was so frightened that she sat down to one side and began to cry softly.
Jiang Chongfan couldn't care less about Jiang Mingwan at this moment. After the imperial physician finished his treatment, he went out with him.
“Lord Jiang, the eldest son’s injuries are mostly superficial. Although they look frightening, they are not life-threatening.”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chongfan slowly breathed a sigh of relief. However, the imperial physician continued, "But..."
His pause made Jiang Chongfan's heart leap into his throat again.
Seeing the imperial physician's expression, Jiang Chongfan reassured him, "Doctor, please speak frankly."
The imperial physician sighed and continued, "Lord Jiang, the eldest son's injury has damaged one of his genitals, so he will likely have difficulty having children in the future."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chongfan swayed, but thanks to the butler behind him, he was able to regain his balance.
"Imperial Physician, this matter concerns the future of my Jiang family. Please keep it a secret."
The imperial physician, being a veteran of the palace, naturally understood the rules of these wealthy and powerful families, and immediately said:
"Lord Jiang, you can rest assured. Today, it was just the eldest son who suffered some minor injuries. He's not seriously hurt."
After seeing the imperial physician off, Jiang Chongfan's face turned cold as he asked, "What exactly happened, sir?"
The servant who was standing next to the eldest son was kneeling on the ground, explaining tremblingly.
"Your Excellency, the master was framed this time!"
As he spoke, his voice became choked with emotion.
"Ever since you spoke to the old man last time, he has been depressed."
"Once, when he was drunk, he told me that he would do something in the future that would impress me."
He also knew that you were currently worried about Gu Jingchun, so he thought of secretly getting rid of Gu Jingchun to ease your worries.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chongfan stood up, his voice trembling with anger.
"That idiot!"
Gu Jingchun's men are probably from all over the place. If that fool rashly makes a move, he might give others a handle to use against him.
Thinking of this, Jiang Chongfan immediately shouted angrily.
What did he do?
Servant: "Master somehow learned that you wanted Chu Qianlan to kill Gu Jingchun, and he is worried that Chu Qianlan will not be able to succeed."
So, wanting to add fuel to the fire, they specifically arranged for someone to kill someone in the crowd to create chaos.
After the servant finished speaking, he immediately began to kowtow repeatedly.
"Master, I have already tried to persuade the master, but he won't listen to anything I say and insists on acting rashly."
Jiang Chongfan had lost his temper at this point.
"Then why was he injured?"
The servant glanced at Jiang Chongfan's expression before continuing:
"After the incident, the old man realized that he had left a handle on you, which might be detrimental to you. Fearing your punishment, he went to Guiyuan Sect without any regard for the consequences."
"He said the idea was given by the Guiyuan Sect. They promised to clean up the mess and leave no trace."
"But only now have I realized that I've probably been set up, which is why I led my men directly to Guiyuan Sect."
"But in the end, we couldn't even find the Guiyuan Sect...we were ambushed, and this is what happened..."
After the servant finished speaking, he knelt on the ground, not daring to breathe, for fear of being implicated.
Jiang Chongfan's face had turned completely black at this moment.
"Guiyuan Sect!"
"You dare to hurt my son? Then don't blame me for being impolite."
Upon hearing this, the steward behind him realized the seriousness of the situation and immediately said, "Master, the most urgent matter now is how to explain things to His Majesty. I'm afraid he has already traced us here."
Jiang Chongfan sighed and then said, "Change your clothes and go to the palace."
In the palace.
Shen Hechuan's expression was solemn.
Luo Ziqian stood in front of him, speaking with righteous indignation.
Do you know who I found out is trying to harm Gu Jingchun?
"It's the Jiang family, your mother's maternal family."
Shen Hechuan's face was cold, showing both anger and shock!
"The Jiang family!"
"It seems I underestimated my grandfather; he certainly has a lot to ask for!"
Luo Ziqian nodded in agreement, but then added:
"However, there is one more thing I must say to Your Majesty: I have only found out that the child who died before the turmoil occurred was killed by the Jiang family."
As for Chu Qianlan, she is now dead, and no one has found out how she got to Taitiandu.
Moreover, during the incident, someone lured away the guards secretly watching Jing Chun, indicating that the other side was well-prepared and possessed considerable power.
Shen Hechuan nodded.
"I think this method is similar to that of my grandfather..."
Just as Shen Hechuan finished speaking, a powerful, aged voice came from outside.
"Your Majesty, this old minister is guilty!"
"This old minister has failed your trust!"
"This old minister has failed in his duty to educate his son, which has led him to be misled and commit such a wrong act. I beg Your Majesty to punish him!"
Shen Hechuan and Luo Ziqian exchanged a glance before chuckling softly.
"I knew it. This grandfather of mine is no ordinary person. He would never be caught doing anything wrong."
Luo Ziqian nodded in agreement.
"I'm quite curious to see what he's going to do now."
Shen Hechuan couldn't help but roll his eyes at him.
"You really know how to make things worse."
Luo Ziqian raised an eyebrow and stood respectfully to one side.
Shen Hechuan then spoke up: "Call the person over here!"
Jiang Chongfan walked in and immediately knelt down.
"Your Majesty, this old minister is guilty. I have failed in my duty to educate my son, which has allowed him to be manipulated and commit such a heinous act of aiding and abetting evil. I beg Your Majesty to punish him!"
"oh?"
"I wonder what wrong he did?"
"To think that my grandfather would be so terrified!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chongfan first kowtowed, and then said:
"Your Majesty, my eldest son, Shen Qingshan, was instigated and manipulated into participating in the Empress's suffering today."
Upon hearing this, Shen Hechuan's voice immediately turned cold.
"absurd!"
Do you know what you're saying?
"To plot against the Empress is tantamount to treason, punishable by the extermination of nine generations of one's family!"
Jiang Chongfan was shocked upon hearing this and immediately said, "Your Majesty, as you know, my eldest son is straightforward by nature. He was truly manipulated this time, which is why he made such a mistake. I hope you will forgive him!"
Shen Hechuan raised an eyebrow.
"Then, according to Grandfather, who exactly did this?"
"Who would dare to harm the future empress in broad daylight!"
"And how did Chu Qianlan manage to return to Tiandu?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chongfan kowtowed again in fear and said:
