Chapter 24 Anyone can find fault.
Jiang Yuanshan was nearly speechless with shock, and stammered, "Your Majesty, do you mean... it was Jiang Ning who saved you?"
He looked at Jiang Ning in disbelief, his eyes filled with shock.
"Jiang Ning, tell me, what exactly happened? Did you steal your sister's credit?"
When he went to plead with the Empress just now, he heard that the Emperor Emeritus had hanged himself, and his body was already cold, but he was forcibly pulled back from the brink of death.
Who would have thought that the person who saved the Emperor Emeritus was Jiang Ning?
Jiang Ning is barely literate, how could she possibly know medicine?
Isn't this a joke?
Seeing that Jiang Yuanshan actually asked such a shameless question on the spot, Jiang Ning's lips curled into a cold smile.
"Father, I would love to steal my sister's credit, but the opportunity is right in front of me, and she doesn't appreciate it."
Jiang Yuanshan's eyes rolled, his heart filled with shock.
He gritted his teeth and bowed to the retired emperor.
“Your Majesty, my daughter has been uneducated since childhood and can barely read or write. She must have just stumbled upon this by sheer luck. You need not worry about it.”
If Baoqing saves the Emperor Emeritus, it will be a tremendous boon for the Jiang family.
But Jiang Ning... a dying man, if he has rendered meritorious service, will only cause more trouble when he dies!
Jiang Ning stood to the side and chuckled.
"Father, it's fine if you don't believe I have medical skills, but there's no need to call the Emperor Emeritus a dead rat, is there?"
Insulting the Emperor Emeritus is a capital offense.
Jiang Yuanshan was trying to belittle her and elevate Jiang Baoqing at every turn.
They really don't know what's good for them, and they don't understand anything!
Jiang Yuanshan then realized that he had said the wrong thing.
He knelt down on the ground with a thud.
"Your Majesty, please calm your anger! That's not what I meant! I was worried about my daughter and spoke rashly..."
Yuwen Jue's cold gaze swept over Jiang Yuanshan, then looked at Jiang Ning.
Judging from Jiang Yuanshan's attitude, Jiang Ning and her son must have had a tough few years.
However, this is all Jiang Ning's own fault!
He clenched his fists tightly and remained silent.
The Empress smiled gently and asked the Emperor Emeritus politely.
"Your Majesty, I have heard that Jiang Baoqing is very well-behaved and sensible. I wonder where she has offended you?"
The retired emperor looked at the empress meaningfully, his aged voice full of sarcasm.
"Your Majesty, she did not offend me, but rather Consort Guo."
The Empress was puzzled and looked at Consort Guo: "I ask Consort Guo to give me an explanation."
Jiang Baoqing's birth mother, Lin, was her cousin. According to seniority, Jiang Baoqing should call her aunt.
Consort Guo curled her lips into a cold smile, her beautiful fox-like eyes flashing with murderous intent.
"Your Majesty, you may not know this, but Jiang Baoqing wrote a letter inviting my younger brother to a secret rendezvous at Zuixianlou, and even injured him so badly that he is now unable to have sex!"
My Guo family line will end here. If I don't kill Jiang Baoqing, I will never be able to eat or sleep in peace!
The Empress's pupils constricted as she looked incredulously at Jiang Yuanshan and Jiang Baoqing outside the door.
"Lord Jiang, what's going on?"
Jiang Yuanshan clearly told her that it was Jiang Ning who injured Guo Zilin!
Jiang Yuanshan's mouth gaped open in shock, almost big enough to fit an egg.
"How could this be? It was clearly Jiang Ning who went to Zuixianlou! Your Highness, Baoqing is innocent!"
Jiang Ning's pupils constricted, and her fingers clenched tightly inside her sleeve.
A murderous glint flashed in her eyes as she looked at Jiang Yuanshan as if he were a dead man.
The original owner was Jiang Yuanshan's biological daughter, yet he colluded with Lin Shi and Jiang Baoqing to personally send the original owner to her death!
Where in the world can you find a father like this?!
Just as Jiang Ning was about to speak, she heard someone speak in a deep voice beside her.
"Lord Jiang, the matter of harming Guo Zilin has been investigated by the Emperor and the Emperor Emeritus and confirmed to be unrelated to Jiang Ning. It was indeed Jiang Baoqing who did it."
Why is Marquis Jiang weeping and wailing? Is he questioning the injustice done to his father, the Emperor Emeritus?
