Chapter 165 This is a gift from you
Following Zhao Jie's loud shout, the guards she brought with her rushed in and surrounded Jiang Yao.
"Princess, what do you mean?"
Jiang Ao stood up and wanted to walk to Jiang Yao but was stopped by the guards.
Zhao Jie sneered, "What do I mean? Jiang Yao doesn't follow the moral code of a woman. As the Princess of Zhao, I certainly have the right to confine her to a nunnery."
Jiang Ao was extremely anxious: "Princess, you should at least let the emperor know, right? My granddaughter is also a Shangyi."
"She hasn't become a noble lady yet. She's just a little maid. If a maid doesn't observe the virtues of a woman, this princess can still imprison her."
"Not observing the virtues of a woman? Ha." Jiang Yao laughed: "Princess, if you want to investigate me, at least produce evidence?"
"You say I seduced the Crown Prince. I admit I liked him, but there was no seduction. Your Highness, you're using this to forcefully accuse me of something, isn't that a bit too much? Why not ask the Crown Prince to identify me, and then you can handle it as you wish."
"That's right, Princess, why don't you ask the prince to come over and identify Jiang Yao?" Lord Sun also chimed in.
Everyone still believes in the prince's character.
Zhao Jie didn't mention it at all: "My brother is so busy with his affairs that he doesn't have time to care about such trivial matters. He also looks down on Jiang Yao, so of course he won't take her seriously."
"And what did the princess say? I seduced Lan Ke? Don't make up rumors about him just because Lan Ke isn't here. If I write a letter to the Anan tribe, he'll come right over. Then the matter of me being held captive in the Anan tribe will probably be brought up again. Princess, are you sure you're going to be a criminal of the Zhao State?"
"you."
"You're accusing me of seducing Master Su. I honestly can't admit that. It was the Emperor who asked me to serve Master Su. If the Princess cares so much about him, why not let the Emperor ask me to leave? I have no objection."
"As for what the princess said about me seducing Liu Liang?"
Jiang Yao looked at Zhao Jie curiously. "Princess, do you think I'm crazy? The Crown Prince, Lan Ke, and Young Master Su are all men of status, position, power, and good looks. I'm not blind. How could I fall for Liu Liang?"
The surroundings fell silent instantly.
Even the ministers who spoke for Jiang Yao were stunned.
If you think about it carefully, Jiang Yao is already by Su Qianji's side. He can pick stars with just a wave of his hand, so why would he look for stones in a rotten ditch?
"Jiang Yao, you're going too far. What's wrong with my son? If you don't like him, why did you ask him out? And you even falsely accused him of molestation and beat him up like that?"
Jiang Yao looked at Lord Liu and asked, "So you think your son is better than the Crown Prince? Better than Young Master Su? And better than the second lord of the Anan tribe?"
"Even if my son is not as good as the Crown Prince Su, he is still better than a slut like you."
"Master Liu, if you insult my granddaughter again, don't blame me for turning against you, regardless of our friendship."
Jiang Ao was completely enraged by Lord Liu's words, and his hands were shaking as he pointed at him.
"Master Liu, please be careful with your words. The slut you're talking about is Shangyi, the emperor's chosen one. Do you think the emperor is blind?"
"Jiang Yao, I'm still here, so don't even think about spreading rumors. When did Lord Liu say that? Besides, you said you didn't seduce Liu Liang, but Liu Liang and your sister both said you did. Isn't that evidence?"
Zhao Jie sneered and said, "A slut like you, my brother the Emperor doesn't like you, and Master Su doesn't like you either. You have no choice but to seduce someone like Liu Liang."
"Princess, my son."
Lord Liu wanted to explain, but was stopped by Zhao Jie's look.
Jiang Yao looked up and saw Lang Qi approaching the door. He said calmly, "Liu Liang is here, why don't you ask him what happened between him and me yesterday?"
After saying this, she glanced at Jiang Yu seemingly unintentionally, causing the latter to shudder and shrink his neck guiltily.
Lang Qi walked in, and the guards surrounding Jiang Yao took a step back.
He threw Liu Liang to the ground and turned to look at Jiang Yao: "I brought Liu Liang to you."
He glanced around again and asked, "What happened?"
"It's okay." Jiang Yao said calmly, "It's just that there are a lot of mad dogs today. Be careful not to get bitten."
Lang Qi looked around in confusion and said, "Miss Jiang Yao, there are no dogs here."
"Yes, haven't you seen so many dogs that bite people?"
"Don't worry, Miss Jiang Yao. My master asked me to protect you. No matter what kind of dog it is, it won't hurt you."
The expression on Zhao Jie's face was quite interesting. She had just scolded Jiang Yao for saying that Su Qianji looked down on her, but when his confidant came, he stood on her side unconditionally.
"Liu Liang, tell me the truth. Did you make an appointment with Jiang Yao yesterday?"
She didn't care about Liu Liang's tightly wrapped face and asked directly.
Liu Liang looked around, his eyes a little evasive. When he saw his father, the fierce look in his eyes made him sure of what he was going to say.
Jiang Yao also saw it, and took a step back and said to Lang Qi, "Master Lang Qi, if you fight with the princess, will you be punished?"
Lang Qi frowned: "Don't worry, Miss Jiang Yao, in Zhao State, no one can punish me except the master."
Jiang Yao nodded in relief. After all, Langqi was a demon. How could these mortals be his match?
"Then you should keep an eye on it later. I think there will be a fight today."
Lang Qi nodded, ready.
"Son, don't worry. The princess is here today and will definitely make the decision for us."
"Yes, Mr. Liu, don't worry, I was there yesterday and I will definitely testify for you." Jiang Yu nodded meaningfully at Liu Liang.
This made Liu Liang understand. After he stood firm, he looked at Jiang Yao with only his exposed eyes and took out a handkerchief from his arms.
"Yao'er, don't you remember? This was given to me by you. You said you would marry me after Master Su left."
It's really hard for him to be able to speak even though his face is as swollen as a pig's head.
Jiang Yao stared at the handkerchief. It was indeed hers. She couldn't find it after she went back home yesterday. She had always been careless and didn't take it seriously. She didn't expect that it was dropped when she fought with Liu Liang.
Lang Qi narrowed his eyes, looked at the handkerchief and said, "Miss Jiang Yao, isn't that your handkerchief?"
Zhao Jie was delighted: "Jiang Yao, even Lang Qi recognized it. This is your handkerchief. You gave it to Liu Liang, and you still say it has nothing to do with him?"
Lang Qi frowned: "This handkerchief was not given to him by Miss Jiang Yao. It must have fallen when Miss Jiang Yao beat him yesterday."
"Langqi, don't be fooled by her. Jiang Yao is not a decent woman. She and Liu Liang had an affair. This handkerchief is the evidence, and her sister also saw it."
Zhao Jie shouted, "This princess must send her to a nunnery today. A woman like this is simply a disgrace to our State of Zhao."
