Chapter 118: Recklessness
Meng Guogong couldn't explain clearly, and the emperor ordered him to be put in a prison for strict interrogation, at this time Jing Qicheng stood up and said that he was ordered to be in charge of the imperial examination, and Meng Guogong was also his father-in-law, since he was arrested, he could not escape his involvement, and he should be locked up together.
The emperor didn't want to implicate Jing Qicheng as well, but since he had already said so in front of the civil and military officials, the emperor could only send him down.
Hearing this, Meng combed his eyebrows and breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that the emperor didn't really blame Jing Qicheng.
Concubine Xian said that she knew that Meng Combrow would be anxious when she heard about what happened in the court, and wanted to enter the palace to distinguish Jing Qicheng, so she specially asked Suqin to wait for her.
"But now Jing Qicheng has indeed been locked up, and it's a big prison there."
Jing Qicheng is the prince, how can he stand a place like a prison?
She was really anxious.
"It's useless for you to beg the emperor now."
It was Jingqi Chen himself who wanted to be locked up with Meng Guogong, even if the emperor wanted to let him out, besides, he was the prince, and this incident was inextricably linked to him, it was indeed difficult to get out, if he was released easily, I was afraid that the emperor would not be able to explain to the world.
Fraud in the imperial examination is a major event, and the emperor must make a decision after finding out.
The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, even if it is Meng Combing, rashly interfering will only make Jing Qicheng's situation more difficult.
Thanks to Concubine Xian's reminder, she only now wants to understand the stakes, and she is too impulsive today.
If it weren't for Concubine Xian to stop herself, she would just add fuel to the fire by running to the emperor recklessly, after all, one of the locked up was her father and the other was her husband.
She also blamed Chunxing for not being calm today, in fact, the most uncalm person is herself.
Seeing that Meng Combs has gradually figured it out, Concubine Xian asked her to go out of the palace first, and now that the Chenwang Mansion is on the cusp, it is still less likely to walk around the palace, in case someone wants to make a big fuss, then even Meng Comb Eyebrows may be involved.
"Thank you for your teachings."
"We are a family, I am relieved to see that you are so worried about Cheng'er, you go back first, if there is any movement, I will let Suqin report to you."
Meng combed her eyebrows and looked at Concubine Xian as if she was much calmer than herself, in the end, she was a woman who was used to seeing strong winds and waves in the palace, and she was the one who could really make Mount Tai collapse without changing her face.
She walked out of the palace slowly, and saw Mo Han standing by the carriage from a distance.
Seeing Meng comb his eyebrows coming out, Mo Han lifted the curtain of the carriage.
"Shall we go back?"
"No, go to the Punishment Department."
Mo Han didn't ask much, but just hurried to the door of the prison of the Criminal Department according to Meng Comb's request.
She got out of the carriage and watched the soldiers guarding the door of the cell, lingering at the door for a while.
When some soldiers saw her, they came to chase her, saying that this was not a place for idlers to stay, and that they should leave quickly.
Seeing that they spoke unceremoniously, Mo Han frowned and wanted to make a move, but Meng Combrow said that he could go back.
She listened to the sound of the carriage jolting with great concern, and only felt very upset in her heart.
That's the prison of the Criminal Department, and there are very few people who can get out unscathed after being locked in, and I don't know what will happen to Jing Qicheng inside.
The Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people, because of Chen Ziqi's death, the emperor must give an explanation to the students of the world, and this matter can not be ended so simply.
As soon as he returned to the palace, before he got off the carriage, he heard a noisy sound from the palace, Meng Combs was already very annoyed, and when he heard this voice, he only felt a wave of anger surging into his throat.
She walked into the palace quickly, only to see that Yue and Meng Xiangrong were both here, making a fuss in the palace to see Meng combing her eyebrows.
Although they all know that this Duchess is very annoying, and Meng Combrow does not look down on her, but she is Meng Comb's nominal concubine, so it is not easy for the people of the palace to directly do anything to the Yue family, so they can only let her mess around.
"Miss, you're back."
Seeing Meng combing his eyebrows coming, the people under him all felt a sense of relief.
As for Yue, he indiscriminately rushed to Meng Combrow and pointed at her nose and scolded.
"I said you were a broom star, even if you get married, you will affect us, now it's okay, your father has been arrested, slut!"
She was so open-mouthed, scolding and foaming, according to Meng Comb's temper, she should have pressed Yue to the ground and beaten her, but today she just looked at Yue with a cold face.
When she was tired of scolding, Meng combed her eyebrows and said, "How is it, is the scolding enough?" Do you think that even if you scold the sky now, will you be able to save people? ”
Yue sat on the ground and began to cry, saying that his life was really too bitter.
Meng Xiangrong also wiped tears from his eyes, and the mother and daughter couldn't stop complaining about Meng combing their eyebrows.
"Someone, go and bring me a chair and open the door of the palace!"
The subordinates looked at each other, not knowing what Meng wanted to do.
Seeing that they didn't move, Meng combed his eyebrows and said angrily: "Why, I can't call you when the prince is gone?" Did you hear what I said! ”
The servants woke up from a dream, and hurried to open the door wide as she commanded.
"Even if you cry, you're shameless anyway, so I don't have anything to worry about."
Outsiders in the palace come and go, doesn't the Yue family want to lose the face of himself and Meng Guogong? Then make a fuss as soon as possible, anyway, I don't care at all.
Looking at the curious people outside who stretched their necks to see who was crying so loudly, the Yue family was still somewhat concerned about his old face.
She reluctantly stopped crying and glared at Meng combing her eyebrows complainingly.
This one has no conscience, but she was also raised in the Guogong Mansion, and now that her father has been arrested, she is not in a hurry at all.
Hearing that his ears were finally a little clearer, Meng combed his eyebrows and took a sip of tea and said, "What, don't you continue to cry?" ”
"Hmph, if you make me cry, I'm going to cry, who do you think you are?"
Anyway, now that her husband has been arrested and put in prison, the Yue family can be regarded as out of the way, if Meng Combs doesn't give herself an explanation today, it doesn't matter if she goes to the Jinluan Palace!
"Follow me."
Meng combed his eyebrows and brought Yue and Meng Xiangrong to the side hall at the back, and then let Chun Xing serve tea.
Looking at the steaming white jade tea bowl, Yue sneered, why was Meng Combing so polite to himself today, could it be that there was something in this tea that shouldn't be there?
