Chapter 488: Avoid unnecessary trouble.
In this way, Mrs. Zhou's sanctions on Liao Jiu were much less powerful.
The mother and son are alienated, and the mother forces her son to death. The outside world will sympathize with Liao Jiu, and Liao Jiu will feel more at ease in the future.
If I can't get along with Mrs. Zhou, then I won't get along with her.
Not afraid of offending her.
Just at this moment, someone came from outside to report that Duke Zhou wanted to see him.
Others can choose not to see Zhou Gong...
Jiang Lianzhu sighed, "Let's go and take a look."
Dabao said, "How about, mother, you stay here with Liao Jiu, and I and Zuo Shi will go to meet him?" This would save Jiang Lianzhu from worrying about the mess outside.
"It's okay, Liao Jiu is not in danger of death, he just fell asleep."
Duke Zhou and the Zhou family saved Liao Jiu this time and made great contributions. This is a favor from a great man. Madam Zhou is Madam Zhou, and Duke Zhou is Duke Zhou.
You have to give face.
Jiang Lianzhu took Dabao and others out.
…
Zhou Gong was taking a nap. He had finally settled Liao Jiu's affairs and was having a good sleep.
As a result, I heard about what happened between Mrs. Zhou and Liao Jiu just after I fell asleep.
He yelled in confusion and hurried here.
Mrs. Zhou had fainted from anger. Duke Zhou scolded Marquis Qingning, and neither Marquis Qingning nor Mrs. Yao dared to speak again.
The door creaked open.
Jiang Lianzhu appeared with Dabao and the others.
The crowd watching the excitement suddenly became quiet.
Duke Zhou stepped forward and bowed deeply to Jiang Lianzhu. "Doctor Jiang, I apologize to you on behalf of my daughter Zhou Se. I have harassed your family several times and insulted you with words. I have offended you."
Jiang Lianzhu hurriedly helped Zhou Gong up, "Old man, please get up quickly. I can't bear it."
At a glance, Mrs. Zhou seemed to have fainted and was being rescued.
Duke Zhou finished his ceremony and said, "As I ought, I failed to raise my daughter properly. I deserve to lose face. Doctor Jiang, Prince Xiang, I apologize for any offense!"
Dabao replied, "This is serious!"
Marquis Qingning and the Yao family were all standing aside at this time, looking at Jiang Lianzhu.
Jiang Lianzhu followed her gaze and looked at them with a cold expression. Those people wanted to come forward to greet Jiang Lianzhu, but they didn't dare to do so. They were also concerned about Zhou Gong's presence and didn't dare to speak easily.
Jiang Lianzhu said calmly, "Mr. Zhou, Liao Jiu is no longer in danger of death. Don't worry. I will take good care of him."
At this time, Mrs. Zhou had just woken up from being strangled. Upon hearing this, she cried out, "My son!!"
When he saw Zhou Gong again, he shouted and then fainted again.
Duke Zhou also breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank God, everything is fine. I won't disturb Doctor Jiang and the young King Xiang any more. Goodbye."
After saying that, he asked someone to take Mrs. Zhou, who had pretended to faint, into the carriage.
Over there, Marquis Qingning and Yao waited for Zhou Gong to leave. They looked up and wanted to come up and talk to Jiang Lianzhu and the others.
"Meet the Little King!"
"Jiang, hello..."
Dabao said to everyone in a serious and indifferent manner, "Everyone, the Xiangwang Mansion has family matters to deal with. We are closed and will not receive any visitors. Please go back."
After saying that, Dabao took Jiang Lianzhu and turned back home without even looking at them.
The door is closed.
Marquis Qingning, Yao and others blushed.
Especially the old Marquis of Qingning, who flicked his sleeves and muttered, "It's unbecoming and too rude, hum..."
Madam Zhou was gone, and Prince Xiang's mansion was closed. If they stayed here any longer, they would be the object of ridicule.
We can only break up.
***
Madam Zhou was taken back to the Prime Minister's residence by Duke Zhou and locked up to let her reflect on herself.
The other ministers in the court were all paying close attention to Prince Xiang's Mansion, but no one dared to come and visit. Some shameless people sent people to sound out the situation under various pretexts, but they were all sent away one by one and were not even allowed to enter the door.
Naturally, Xuan Huang also knew the news that mother and son became enemies and Liao Jiu committed suicide.
It was not spread by others, but Xiang Zuo went to the palace specifically to report to Xuan Huang.
This is the responsibility of the Six Gates. The Six Gates are directly under the Xuanhuang. Xiang Zuo is the deacon of the Six Gates. Naturally, he has to report on these matters.
After hearing this, Emperor Xuan was greatly disappointed with Liao Jiu.
He lost his temper in front of Xiang Zuo and a group of palace maids.
Calling Liao Jiu crazy and ungrateful...
After Xiang Zuo left, the palace attendant beside Emperor Xuan cautiously suggested, "Your Majesty, all of this is caused by that Jiang. Why not find a reason to transfer Jiang out of the capital? Such a woman actually has a huge impact on the people's morals. How can she be worthy of Liao Jiu, and how can she surpass the princess..."
Xuan Huang stroked his chin, "She has a golden medal of immunity from death!"
He somewhat regretted issuing the golden medal of immunity from death.
Unexpectedly, it was given to Jiang family for use.
The palace maid's mouth was blocked, and it was useless to persuade her any further. In fact, the golden medal of immunity from death had been used once when she disobeyed the imperial order. This time, Liao Jiu and her son became enemies. As long as Emperor Xuan wanted to investigate, he could ask the people from the Ministry of Rites to draft a memorial, and they could find any point to sue Jiang.
Xuan Huang said this, partly out of consideration for Liao Jiu's sake, and was unwilling to take action.
As expected, Emperor Xuan sighed and continued, "We can't push Liao Jiu too hard. When I punish the Jiang family, I'm going to kill him. After all, he's right. He has made great contributions to me and the Da'an Kingdom, but he has also worked hard. This time, the Hundred Flowers Tower was destroyed by the two of them. Forget it, let's spare them this time."
A pair of enemies.

Three days later, Liao Jiu's condition improved a lot and he was able to get out of bed and walk. The wounds from the beating had scabbed over, and the knife wound on his chest was also gradually recovering.
Jiang Lianzhu discovered something. She used the purified water in the Qinglian hand warmer to decoct medicine for Liao Jiu, and the effect seemed to be much stronger than using ordinary water.
So, I used the water in the Qinglian hand warmer to boil medicine these days.
Previously, Jiang Lianzhu discovered that using the purified water in the Qinglian hand warmer made the dishes taste better. The whole family drank water from the Qinglian hand warmer, which was sweet and delicious. Unexpectedly, the effect of decocting medicine was also different.
This Qinglian hand warmer was given to her by Liao Jiu, and now Liao Jiu is using it himself, which can be regarded as a tit-for-tat.
As soon as Liao Jiuyi was able to walk, he had a heart-to-heart talk with Dabao behind closed doors.
After coming out, Dabao ordered someone to quickly buy festive lanterns and other things.
Jiang Lianzhu was the last to be notified.
Liao Jiu is going to marry into the Prince Xiang's mansion and become Jiang Lianzhu's son-in-law!
Jiang Lianzhu just found it funny. Before, she just said it casually, but Liao Jiu actually took it seriously.
"Have you thought it through? If you, Liao Jiu, were to become Jiang Lianzhu's son-in-law, and people knew about it, they would laugh at you. Your mother would probably die of anger on the spot."
Liao Jiu replied, "My wife has saved my life several times. My life belongs to my wife. Why should I be ashamed to be her son-in-law? It's my honor! I'm happy! As for my mother, we have severed our relationship. If I get married, there is no need to inform her, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble."
