Chapter Seventy-Eight: Wrong
Today's princess and the wife and son of the young prince are fighting in the street, which is more talked about than the ambiguous rumors that Shen Xizhi used to catch the wind and shadows.
Shen Xi's heart was clear, and seeing Jiang Zhen being taken away in a hurry, the farce gradually dispersed. She turned her head and saw that Jiang Jingyu was still the same unworldly appearance, so she asked him, "Did the prince calculate that they will all come today?"
"There are always people who can't bear it and want to reap the benefits. Jiang Jingyu's gaze swept over Shen Xizhi and looked at the gate of the palace that had been restored, "But who is the fish and who is the knife is not yet known." ”
Shen Xizhi felt that he always liked to talk half and leave half when he spoke to himself, but she didn't care too much. At least judging from the current situation, Jiang Jingyu should not harm himself.
In the imperial study, Jiang Zhen knelt in front of the emperor with a frightened face, and beside him there were Lord Zhou with a gloomy face and a crying Mrs. Zhou.
She didn't know how things had gotten so big, and she had just come to her senses a quarter of an hour ago when she had been brought here. She understood that she was impulsive today, but she felt that as a princess, her father would not embarrass her too much......
But the better you think about it, the more cruel the reality becomes.
"Your Majesty, my poor child is still lying on the hospital bed and his life and death are unknown, you must make the decision for my son!" Mrs. Zhou sobbed and cried red eyes, if it weren't for the fact that the emperor was here, she would have liked to clean up Jiang Zhen.
Maybe Zhou Zhuo's injury has not healed, but today the wound is ruptured again, and not long after he arrived at the hospital, he actually launched a high fever. The doctors in the hospital were helpless, and in the end, it was the doctor from the Tai Hospital who barely hung his life.
But Zhou Zhuo's high fever was repeated, and he was groggy all the time, and he actually looked like he was dying.
Mrs. Zhou remembered Zhou Zhuo's tragic situation, crying and crying and falling to the ground, no longer dignified at all.
Lord Zhou's face was not good-looking, he did not persuade Mrs. Zhou, but knelt in front of the emperor and said: "Emperor Mingjian, my son was just ordered by King Yu to apologize to Princess Yu today, but when he came, King Yu avoided my son. Second, the fifth princess beat my son again, and the old minister knew that he was old and should not be cheeky in the court. Please also ask the emperor to let the old minister go, and also let my son have a way to live, so let the old minister resign and return to his hometown. ”
Mrs. Zhou was stunned for a moment, and suddenly continued to cry, one voice higher than the other.
Zhou Aiqing...... Why bother?" The emperor had a headache, and Zhou Jia didn't mention the matter of Jiang Zhen beating Zhou Zhuo last time, so he swallowed that breath. Now that this kind of thing has happened, the emperor also knows that he can't fool the past anymore.
Lord Zhou gritted his teeth, as if he was ruthless, "Your Majesty, Zhuo'er has become a waste, but she still makes the princess dissatisfied, I'm afraid that only by letting Zhuo'er stay away can she avoid death." ”
The emperor pinched his eyebrows, Lord Zhou has been up and down in the court for decades, and now although he keeps saying that it is Zhou Zhuo's fault, in fact, Jiang Zhen's arrogance is revealed.
On one side is his own flesh and blood, and on the other side is the minister of the humerus, and the emperor's face is unpredictable.
And the emperor's silence made Jiang Zhen afraid, her brain was hot, and she subconsciously wanted to clear herself.
"Father, the son knows that he is wrong, and the son will definitely not mess with Zhou Zhuo again in the future. But my father and son also want to go to Shen ...... today Princess Yu apologized, but she avoided it and made her sons wait for a long time for no reason. If he hadn't waited in a hurry, Erchen wouldn't have been quick enough to talk to Zhou Zhuo......"
Jiang Zhen grabbed the corner of her clothes, and it was Zhou Zhuo and that Mrs. Zhou who spoke ill of her, making her angry. Now that Zhou Zhuo is going to die, she has become a sinner instead.
When this matter is over, she must ask the prince's brother to help teach them a lesson!
"Where is the bickering?" said Mrs. Zhou, "My son was injured by you before, but just because you are a princess, I had to endure it." But my son only said a few words to you, and then you shouted and shouted and killed, in the whole world, who is going to kill someone?"
Mrs. Zhou cried: "The courtiers are the old Bengshengzhu who got Zhuo'er, he ruined the reputation of Princess Yu, and asked King Yu to unload his legs, so he saved his life." But where did Zhuo'er do anything to be sorry for the fifth princess? Why did she lose her life?"
Her accusations made Jiang Zhen speechless.
"I ...... I just ...... on impulse," she didn't think about the consequences when she shouted and shouted to kill before, and now she can only prevaricate with such dry words.
"Enough. Looking at her like this, the emperor made a decision in his heart, "Jiang Zhen, you should be grounded now, but why did you leave the palace without permission?"
Jiang Zhen subconsciously wanted to answer, but the emperor didn't give her a chance, "You have beaten Lord Zhou's beloved son again and again, arrogant and domineering, and you don't change your mistakes, which disappoints me too much!"
With the sound of slapping the table, Jiang Zhen's heart also burst out.
"Father......" she said in trepidation, wanting to defend herself again.
"Shut up. The emperor didn't look at her, and said to Zhou Daren, "Zhou Aiqing, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer to today's matter." You go back for the time being, so that you can take care of Ling Lang, and you don't need to mention the matter of resigning and returning to your hometown. Our dynasty still needs a humerus minister like Aiqing. ”
Such a result was not much different from what Zhou Daren expected. He is the young master of the crown prince, the master of the current prince, and he has not much power in his hands, but his status is not low. If he resigns because of this, Jiang Zhen's reputation will be stinky.
And after today, in order to calm his anger, the emperor will inevitably take care of Zhuo'er more, even if Zhuo'er is disabled and can't become an official, it shouldn't be too difficult to ask to marry Jiang Zhen.
In the final analysis, Lord Zhou brought Mrs. Zhou into the palace today to make trouble, and it was also for Zhou Zhuo.
Lord Zhou had a bottom in his heart, and there was no expression on his face, he just sighed and said the words of Emperor Xie's appreciation. Then he picked up Mrs. Zhou and left with interest.
At the moment, there were only the emperor and Jiang Zhen, and the atmosphere was silent, and even Quande did not dare to touch his head rashly.
Suddenly, the emperor spoke, "You have lived in the Temple of Mercy and Grace for two years, but your temperament is worse than before. I think Concubine Rong is right, I shouldn't have let you come back so early. ”
Hearing these words, Jiang Zhen's heart was filled with panic, she raised her head in disbelief, and tears fell as if she didn't want money, "Father...... Erchen knew that he was wrong, father, son, son, just wanted to apologize to Princess Yu, but he didn't expect ......"
"Apologize?" the Emperor sneered, "Do you think I don't know how much you hate her?"
Jiang Zhen shook his head in fear, "Father, the son is not lying......"
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has come down. Quan De came lightly from the door and reported to the emperor.
Jiang Zhen suddenly seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and turned his head to look at the door.
Seeing this, the emperor let Jiang Zerui in after a little thought.
