Chapter 254: The Irritable Queen Mother vs. the Cold Imperial Master (37)
The front yard of the Jiang Mansion was brightly lit.
The servants in the mansion knelt on both sides of the courtyard with their heads lowered, and countless soldiers with knives stood behind them.
General Jiang was dragged by a soldier and thrown into the open space in the middle of the yard.
Without his wheelchair, he had difficulty walking and could only sit on the ground and shout angrily: "Li Yuanfan, what do you mean?!"
"I am the Grand Marshal of the current dynasty! You are just a mere Minister of Revenue! Why do you treat me like this?!"
Li Yuanfan spoke loudly, "There is irrefutable evidence that General Jiang intends to assassinate the Emperor. However, because the Emperor is frightened and in poor health, the matter is being handled by the Empress Dowager."
"I am here on the orders of the Empress Dowager to arrest the traitor."
As soon as he finished speaking, someone pushed open the door of Jiang Mansion.
Lu Cha was supported by Jin Yu and walked in.
Outside the palace, many people came to watch, but they were stopped by the soldiers and could not move forward.
The Jiang Mansion is located in the most prosperous area of the capital. The commotion was so big that it almost attracted all the residents nearby.
Lu Cha sat on the chair Jin Yu had brought and yawned lazily. "Does Commander Jiang admit his guilt?"
"What crime have I committed?" Jiang Taiwei pretended to be calm.
"The Queen Mother and this old minister have had conflicts for a long time. Could it be that she wants to take advantage of the Emperor's poor health to get rid of this old minister?!"
"This old minister wants to see the emperor! This old minister has been wronged!"
He didn't believe that his people would fail!
But at this moment, a guard dressed in palace uniform ran into the mansion:
"Your Majesty, there are only four assassins left, and they have been apprehended. In addition, there are two accomplices planted in the palace by General Jiang."
When he saw the six people brought by the guards, General Jiang's pupils suddenly constricted.
how so? !
His plan is obviously foolproof!
"They'll all be executed."
The guard took the order and left with the six people.
Lu Cha watched at his leisure, and the expression on General Jiang's face changed from shock at first to deathly pale now.
This afternoon, the Imperial Censor suddenly received news that General Jiang was planning to assassinate the Emperor, and he immediately went to the palace to tell her.
She originally wanted to let Chu Yixiao get injured a little, and then let the Imperial Censor bring people to rescue the emperor.
But just when the Imperial Censor was about to take action, a group of mysterious men in black tied up the assassins and handed them to him, including the traitor in the palace.
Chu Yixiao was stabbed twice and fainted from fright.
Knowing that it was Ming Yan who was helping in secret, she did not expose him. She asked Li Yuanfan to lead the troops to capture General Jiang, and did not forget to call the surrounding people to watch the fun together.
Lu Cha raised his voice to ensure that the people outside the palace could hear clearly:
"General Jiang, you, as a minister of the imperial court, have disrupted the government, oppressed the people, and murdered loyal officials. Five years ago, you murdered the old lady of the Ming family, and to this day, you have shown no remorse."
"Even not long ago, he even tried to frame me for the death of the previous Imperial Master."
"How dare you say you're wronged?"
General Jiang tried to argue, but the noisy discussions outside drowned out his voice:
"The old lady of the Ming family actually died at the hands of General Jiang?!"
"You bastard! Madam Ming is such a kind and gentle person! She often gives alms to the poor! How could he have the heart to do this to her?!"
"If Madam Ming hadn't given me a bowl of porridge back then, I would have starved to death! No one can stop me! I'm going to kill this bastard and avenge my benefactor!"
The people rushed forward angrily.
Lu Cha gave Li Yuanfan a look.
The latter understood and signaled the blocking soldiers to move aside.
The people immediately rushed into the mansion and headed straight for General Jiang.
Lu Chaze and Jin Yu walked through the surging crowd and came to the outside of the mansion.
Listening to the shouting and cursing mixed with General Jiang's wailing, Lu Cha raised his hand slightly and covered his eyes, as if he couldn't bear to watch, but a malicious smile appeared on his lips:
"General Jiang is in such a pity."
"Yuan Fan, take your men and raid the homes of General Jiang's remaining followers."
Lu Cha suddenly changed the subject, almost catching Li Yuanfan off guard.
The Queen Mother changed her expression so quickly.
Li Yuanfan did as he was told in a complicated manner, leaving behind a few people to protect Lu Cha to prevent him from being accidentally injured by the angry people.
After all, Lu Cha is the daughter of General Jiang.
Fortunately, the people still had some rationality and understood that every wrong would be dealt with according to the law. Some of them continued to beat General Jiang to vent their anger, while others smashed everything in the Jiang Mansion.
In less than a cup of tea, a raging fire broke out in the Jiang Mansion.
The plaque hanging high also fell to the ground and was trampled by the crowd.
Lu Cha, who was standing across the street, watched the scene quietly.
Jiang Taiwei cares most about face and reputation, but now he is being smashed and scolded. One of the original owner's wishes has finally been fulfilled~
Lu Cha was about to leave with satisfaction when raindrops suddenly began to fall from the sky.
"The Queen Mother will go to the shop over there to take shelter from the rain, and Jinyu will go get the carriage."
There were too many people gathered outside the mansion, so Jinyu asked the coachman to go to the back street to wait.
Lu Cha nodded his little head and was about to go over when an oil-paper umbrella suddenly appeared above his head.
Ming Yan, who had arrived here at some unknown time, was dressed in white. The firelight softened his indifferent features.
In his other hanging hand, he held a food box.
"I brought roast chicken and chestnut cake from the east of the city."
Although he sent people to protect him secretly, he was still worried and stayed nearby.
Looking at the sleepy girl, he recited the charges against General Jiang one by one, and then specially attracted the people to demolish the Jiang Mansion.
Just like a cunning and naughty little fox, standing on the street, admiring his own "pranks".
If it hadn't suddenly started to rain, he would have still been hiding aside, secretly watching this cute little fox.
Lucha's eyebrows and eyes are curved:
"Then I will give the Imperial Master a reward, okay?"
