Chapter 400: Yashan hits the pillar
The emperor was also stunned for a moment, then glanced at Jing Ning meaninglessly, and said in a low voice: "Why do you say this?" ”
Cai Feng bowed and said: "Your Majesty, according to the laws of our country, a man is not allowed to divorce his wife easily, unless the woman commits seven crimes, the young lady has no children under her knees, and the other is very jealous, General Xiao is the pillar of the country, so the minister thinks that the saint should give the two of them peace." ”
Before Jing Ning could speak, Xiao's father and Xiao's mother on the side couldn't listen anymore, Xiao's father stood up, staring at Cai Feng with a pair of sharp eyes, obviously with anger on his face.
"Lord Cai is really lenient." The coldness in Father Xiao's words was not concealed at all, and after his aura on the battlefield was released, the banquet was suddenly depressed, and a thin layer of sweat oozed from Cai Feng's forehead.
"I don't know where Lord Cai saw that Ning'er was jealous?" Xiao Mu also looked at Cai Feng coldly at this time, and asked.
Seeing Xiao's father and Xiao's mother protecting themselves like this, Jing Ning's heart flowed with a warm current, her face was a little moved, she pursed her lips slightly, and tried her best to hold back the astringency in her eyes.
"I'm afraid that Miss Wanxi's situation in the General's Mansion is not very good, and then she died tragically in prison, and Miss Ji Qing lived in the General's Mansion for a few days before the news of her death due to illness came out, I'm afraid these two things are inseparable from the young lady." Although Cai Feng's face was not very good, there was no trace of fear in his tone, but he looked at Jing Ning aggressively, as if he was interrogating a prisoner.
The emperor frowned when he heard this, he didn't suspect that these two things were related to Jing Ning, he had also sent someone to investigate secretly, but he didn't find any valuable clues, although he was the emperor, he couldn't convict others without evidence.
"Lord Cai is afraid that he has some misunderstanding about me, Wanxi committed suicide because she poisoned Princess Lu, and Ji Qing died because she was too worried, why did Lord Cai put such a trumped-up charge on my head? Could it be that Lord Cai has any selfish intentions? Jing Ning showed a faint smile on her face, she stood up calmly and looked at Cai Feng, there was indifference between her eyebrows and eyes, but there was a trace of sarcasm on the corner of her mouth.
"I heard that Miss Cai has been happy with General Xiao for a long time." Lan Yao's voice sounded at the right time.
The whispers of the crowd during the banquet suddenly became louder.
"I heard that some time ago, Miss Cai didn't think about tea and dinner because of her sweetheart, and it turned out that her sweetheart was General Xiao?"
"No wonder Lord Cai wants to let the young lady reconcile with the general, I'm afraid he wants to stuff his daughter into the general's mansion."
"It's really worthy of being a book of the Ministry of Rites, and the ability to pick bones in eggs is really a must."
Cai Feng's face turned blue and white for a while, and Cai Yanshan blushed and glared at Jing Ning and Lan Yao with hatred. Lan Yao cast a disdainful glance at her.
"I see, it's just that Lord Cai is afraid that his efforts will be in vain, and my Xiao family's daughter-in-law is only Jing Ning." Father Xiao's words were very determined, Jing Ning was moved in his heart, and showed a smile to Father Xiao.
Cai Feng's face became even more difficult to look at when he heard this. If it weren't for his wife and daughter forcing each other to die, he would definitely not do anything to ruin the marriage, but if he did, he would have to do it to the end. A few traces of firmness flashed in his eyes, and he knelt down to the emperor.
"Qiqi Sheng, Weichen is indeed selfish, but the young lady really has nothing to do, the heir is a big deal, and I hope the saint will think twice."
Jing Ning's smile froze, indeed, she had no children under her knees, and Concubine Ji Guifei also used the same reason to stuff Ji Qing into the General's Mansion when she was still alive, she hated this very much, but she couldn't argue with it.
"Cai Aiqing has some truth in what she said, and Cai Qing's daughter is also a famous talented woman in Kyoto, Jingning, you should also consider the General's Mansion." Although the emperor was a little embarrassed on his face, he wished to let Cai Yashan marry into the General's Mansion, so that there would inevitably be a rift between the General's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion, which was a good thing for him.
Jing Ning's face flashed a little angry when he heard this, Xiao's father and Xiao's mother were still sitting there, and the emperor didn't say anything to them, but put pressure on himself, obviously wanting to let himself open his mouth and allow Cai Yashan to enter the mansion. If she refuses directly, the emperor will inevitably be dissatisfied, but she will never agree, when Jing Ning was in trouble, Xiao's father spoke.
"The good intentions of the Holy General have been understood, but the children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and I think that Rin'er and Ning'er also have their own plans, and this matter should not be forced, it is better to go with the flow, after all, the twisted melon is not sweet."
Father Xiao paused and looked at Cai Feng and said in a deep voice: "Besides, I'm afraid that my General's Mansion is an ominous place, otherwise Wanxi and Ji Qing would not have lost their lives at a young age, and Lord Cai must want to love his daughter and be safe." ”
Father Xiao was obviously threatening Cai Feng, and the threatening meaning in that sentence made the emperor's brows jump uncontrollably, thinking of the fate of Wanxi and Ji Qing, Cai Feng's face suddenly turned pale.
"Although my husband is good, Miss Cai is also a beautiful woman, why bother with this?" Jing Ning looked at Cai Yashan, hoping that Cai Yashan could take the initiative to take a step back, which would be good for everyone.
Cai Yashan's eyes widened when she heard this, there was a faint look of despair in her eyes, and her voice was a little hoarse: "If Yashan can't marry General Xiao in this life, I'd rather die!" With that, she slammed into the pillar beside her.
"Mountain!" Cai Feng's voice trembled, his eyes rolled and he fainted with fright, and everyone at the banquet was also full of horror. Fortunately, the guards on the side quickly stopped him, and although Cai Yashan injured his forehead, he was not worried about his life.
"Quickly pass on the imperial doctor!" The Emperor whispered.
Jing Ning frowned, and couldn't help but feel a little bored in her heart, in the memory of the previous life, Cai Yashan had never appeared at all, and she didn't know why this person was so obsessed with Xiao Rin, and he didn't even care about his life, which was really incomprehensible.
"Looks like it's going to be tough this time." Lan Yao looked at Jing Ning worriedly, and Jing Ning barely squeezed out a smile and didn't say anything.
The imperial doctor came quickly, and after a simple bandage for Cai Yashan, he carried her down, and took away the unconscious Cai Feng by the way.
"Xiao Aiqing, this Cai Qing's daughter is really in love with Xiao Rin." The emperor said meaningfully.
Jing Ning frowned, listening to the emperor's meaning, is he going to forcibly point out that the marriage will not be successful today?
"It's just that the falling flowers are intentionally ruthless."
"Oh? How can Xiao Aiqing know that flowing water is ruthless? ”
Father Xiao smiled when he heard this, and said in a deep voice: "Then why don't you wait until Rin'er returns." ”
The smile on the emperor's face froze, and only then did he realize that he had fallen for Father Xiao's delaying tactic. He couldn't get angry under his responsibility, so he had to nod his head in agreement.
Jing Ning breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and admired Xiao's father's reaction ability very much, so that before Xiao Rin came back, Cai Yashan would never be included in the General's Mansion, and it would be better to delay it for a while, and it would be better to solve this matter in person after Xiao Rin came back.
