Chapter 251: The Gu Family Falls
Shaoqing's kung fu, the golden dragon jade pendant was taken by Deng Chang and handed over to Emperor Ming.
And Emperor Ming fiddled with it twice, then handed the jade pendant to Xiao Jinxuan, and said gently:
"There are a total of five jade pendants, and there is also a piece on Xianyu's body, with this jade pendant in hand, you don't need to enter the palace directly, so if you are really wronged, you girl can come directly to me in the future, and I think that my imperial aunt will see this jade pendant, and she will definitely understand what I mean, and she should leave your mansion."
Emperor Ming has been investigating this matter thoroughly since he beat Xiao Jinxuan and Zhou Xianyu and falling off the cliff, and he has long known who is doing it behind his back.
Xiao Jinxuan is good at scheming and has a city in her heart, these Ming Emperors are clear, but when she is with Empress Xue's mother and son, and the people in the royal family, she is always very passive.
Therefore, Emperor Ming deliberately gave the jade pendant to the other party, hoping to have a little deterrent effect on those who want to attack secretly.
And in the future, Xiao Jinxuan can enter the palace at will, if something really happens, as long as she can avoid entering the palace in time, she is protected by him, and she is not afraid of being assassinated by others.
Today's Emperor Ming, although he has not been married, has already regarded Xiao Jinxuan as his own child.
And the other party's intelligence and stability are also quite his mind, coupled with Xiao Jinxuan's temperament, and very similar to the deceased Concubine Rou, Emperor Ming is always inevitable, and he has to take care of his heart more.
The golden dragon jade pendant was received in her hand, Xiao Jinxuan couldn't help but be a little excited, it is not an exaggeration to say that this thing is a life talisman, and she was immediately busy and was about to bow to thank her, but was stopped by Emperor Ming again.
"Okay, I was also very worried after your child fell off the cliff, and now I am relieved to see that you are okay, while the time is still early, you go to Yanqing Palace, Xianyu entered the palace today to ask Concubine Liang to say goodbye, and now it should not be gone, during this time, Concubine Liang has been worried about you and prayed, if you go over, she will be happy."
Although she had only been in contact with Concubine Liang once, Xiao Jinxuan's dignified virtue and virtue of the other party were very respectful, and she immediately bid farewell to Emperor Ming, and she was led by the palace people and went to Yanqing Palace.
When he arrived at the gate of the palace, after the eunuch went in to report, Shaoqing Kung Fu heard the sound of a trot, and then Xiangping's figure that he hadn't seen for many days came into Xiao Jinxuan's eyes.
And looking at Xiangping, who was looking at this, the whole person was crying while running, and when he came closer, he hugged Xiao Jinxuan, and then shouted loudly:
"Jinxuan, you are back, you and Seventh Brother are scared to death of me, I thought you died under the cliff, I can't see you in my life, I want to find you and Seventh Brother in person, but my mother locked me in the palace and didn't allow me to go out for half a step, Jinxuan, I'm so happy now."
Xiangping will cry now, in fact, she is crying with joy, Xiao Jinxuan and her have always had a good relationship, and immediately her eyes couldn't help but reddened slightly, patting each other's back, she said with a little choked up:
"Don't cry Xiangping, didn't I come back well, you don't let go, I didn't fall off the cliff and died, but I was going to be strangled to death by you."
As soon as he heard this, Xiangping, who was crying tears and snot, immediately laughed with a "plop", although he let go of his hand, he touched the tears on his face with the back of his hand, and then rubbed it directly against Xiao Jinxuan's clothes.
"People are happy, you still said that I was going to strangle you, okay, I let go of you now, I can't strangle you, this princess will rub her tears on your Luo skirt, and make you disgusting to death, let you worry me for so many days, Jinxuan, you are really hateful."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiangping wiped a handful of tears again, and then raised his hand and handed it to Xiao Jinxuan, but this time before she could succeed, her wrist was grabbed by someone first.
As soon as Xiao Jinxuan raised her head, she saw that Zhou Xianyu had also walked out of Yanqing Palace, and the other party was now grabbing Xiangping's wrist with one hand, and said with disgust on his face:
"The dirty one is still coming to Jinxuan's side, hurry to the side and play by yourself, Xiangping, you dare to mess around, believe it or not, Brother Qi threw you into the mud ditch and turned you into a little loach, see if you still wipe your tears on Xuan'er."
When Xiangping saw Zhou Xianyu, it was like a mouse meeting a cat, and she was just messing around with Xiao Jinxuan, and she was immediately honest, and her big eyes were even more flattering, and she was busy looking at Zhou Xianyu, not to mention how pitiful and innocent that little appearance was.
Seeing that Xiangping was no longer messing around, Zhou Xianyu immediately threw the other party aside, and then with a smile in his eyes, he came to Xiao Jinxuan's approach in a few steps, and said softly:
"I only came back yesterday, and today you were announced to the palace, what did the old man tell you, he didn't have anything difficult for you, Xuan'er, I will accompany you in, the mother knows that you are here, and she is very happy."
Looking at Zhou Xianyu and Xiao Jinxuan, who were walking in front like a pair of beautiful people, Xiangping pouted, and immediately made a grimace behind him.
When this seventh brother treats her, he is either fierce or always teasing her, but now when he arrives at Xiao Jinxuan's side, he is as docile as a cat.
Immediately, Xiangping looked at Zhou Xianyu's back with disdain, and snorted lightly as if relieved.
Xiangping's small gesture was just a slight vent of dissatisfaction, but Zhou Xianyu's ear power has always been keen, and he immediately turned his head to look at her with an evil smile.
Matching the other party's eyes, the frightened Xiangping quickly covered his mouth, and then pretended to look away, and didn't dare to look at Zhou Xianyu.
Xiao Jinxuan was thoughtful, she naturally saw the small actions of the two brothers and sisters, and immediately glared at Zhou Xianyu dissatisfied, and then stopped.
"Xiangping, come here, let's go in together, Xianyu is teasing you, with me he dares to treat you like this, I won't agree."
Seeing Xiao Jinxuan look over, her seventh brother immediately nodded again and again, and immediately Xiangping laughed at Zhou Xianyu in his heart.
But he still waved his hand with a smile and said: "No, no, you guys go in quickly, recently my father allowed me to learn to ride and shoot, I haven't gone to class with the master today, so I'll go first, Jinxuan and I'll go to play with you when I'm free." ”
Seeing that as soon as Xiangping finished speaking, he left in a hurry, Xiao Jinxuan smiled helplessly, and then sighed and said:
"Xianyu, look at yourself, Xiangping is your sister, why don't you know how to let her at all, you really don't look like a brother at all."
Seeing Zhou Xianyu's brother and sister, Xiao Jinxuan couldn't help but suddenly think of her younger brother Xiao Wenyao who was far away in Yangzhou, and she didn't know if she would often think of her sister if she had grown taller for more than half a year.
Looking at Xiao Jinxuan's expression, there was suddenly a trace of inexplicable melancholy, Zhou Xianyu knew that the other party was serious and didn't want to say something, even if he asked, he probably couldn't find out anything.
Immediately, he hurriedly took Xiao Jinxuan's hand, and while walking towards the main hall of Concubine Liang, he chuckled and said loudly:
"I lowered my head, what are you thinking about, after I see my mother, I will personally send you back to the Shuai Mansion in a while, and I still have a gift for you, Xuan'er might as well guess what it is."
Seeing that Zhou Xianyu was now holding her hand directly as if no one was around, Xiao Jinxuan was immediately shocked, and she couldn't care about thinking about Xiao Wenyao sadly, so she wanted to quickly withdraw her hand.
"Don't mess around, you're about to meet Concubine Liangniang, why don't you let go of your hand quickly, what does it look like."
Although Xiao Jinxuan is resolute and even a little unruly in her actions, she is a woman in the end, even if it is Zhou Xianyu who is pulling her, she still feels very ashamed in her heart.
Seeing that Xiao Jinxuan could be regarded as completely discarding the sorrow because of his own turmoil, Zhou Xianyu immediately smiled with satisfaction, ignoring the other party's protest at all, but grabbed the plain hand in his palm a little tighter.
He never cared about the words and opinions of others when he did anything, and Zhou Xianyu didn't think he liked Xiao Jinxuan, what was there to hide.
So when they entered the main hall and Concubine Liang saw the two of them, the first thing she saw was Xiao Jinxuan's face flushed, constantly pulling her left hand, while Zhou Xianyu smiled lazily and refused to let go.
knew what kind of character her son was, so she immediately covered her mouth and smiled, and then shook her head and said:
"Xianyu, you're messing around again, let go of Jinxuan quickly, and don't call her to sit next to the concubine in a few days, so that I can take a closer look at her."
Concubine Liang spoke, Zhou Xianyu had to reluctantly let go, and Xiao Jinxuan, who finally got rid of the entanglement, immediately followed Concubine Liang's instructions and took a few steps forward to sit beside the other party.
As soon as she sat down, she saw that Concubine Liang immediately took her hand, and then said with a guilty look on her face:
"The child knows that you have been wronged, all of this is Qingge confused and done something wrong, I am her aunt, but I failed to find out her vicious thoughts in time, speaking of which the palace is also to blame, but I still want to thank you, I did not anger the rest of the Gu family because of the fall from the cliff, Mrs. Gu is the sister of the palace, if it is because of the child's negligence, I can see her sentenced and questioned, I really can't bear it in my heart."
Holding Concubine Liang with her backhand, Xiao Jinxuan smiled lightly, and then hurriedly said softly:
"Niangniang, don't say that, you don't blame Jinxuan, you punished Gu Qingge privately, it should be me thank you for your understanding, as for the people of the Gu family, I and the royal king are already familiar with Gu Qingping, and if it weren't for the other party's help, Xianyu wouldn't have been able to arrive in time and rescue me, one person should not have affected the whole family if he was convicted, Jinxuan has never had the intention of venting his anger with other people in the Gu Mansion."
Seeing that Xiao Jinxuan said this, her expression didn't seem to be fake, and Concubine Liang immediately nodded with relief, after all, Gu Qingge's crime was the crime of murdering the family of a heavy minister, according to the law, the rest of the Gu family was not sentenced to death, and exile and raiding the family was inevitable.
If Xiao Jinxuan refuses to let go, Concubine Liang has a heart, and she can't save the lives of the Gu family, and now that Gu Qingge is dead, but the rest of the Gu family is not implicated, this result is already the best.
At this time, Zhou Xianyu, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly snorted coldly beside him, and then said with some indignation:
"Speaking of which, Gu Qingge is just a sharp blade, and the person holding the knife is Empress Xue's mother and son, but now these two people are not only fine, but Gu Yizhou was forced to resign from the official position of Shangshu, and the nerd has also lost his identity as a scientific researcher, and he will not be allowed to enter the official career for the rest of his life, as for a serious illness in Mrs. Gu's prison, the spirit is already crazy, in the end, the Gu family is just a scapegoat, the person who really harmed us, but it didn't hurt the muscles and bones to half a point."
Hearing this, Xiao Jinxuan felt quite bad in her heart, Gu Qingge was indeed hateful, but the rest of the Gu family suffered from the disaster of no reason, and became the two mothers and sons of Empress Xue, and the perpetrators of the abduction of the fall from the cliff, and now they have ended up in a disgraced and ruined family, which is not unemotional.
Just when Xiao Jinxuan wanted to comfort Zhou Xianyu and tell the other party that he didn't have to rush for a while, and he had to wait for the opportunity, he suddenly heard outside, and someone from the palace shouted loudly:
"The queen has arrived, and the prince of Thailand has arrived."
