Chapter 228: Disposition
The same rules apply, if the emperor shouts stop, the guards will keep beating until the emperor says stop.
The fear in Jiang Jingyue's heart was getting deeper and deeper, and the slaps in her ears were like a reminder, making her panic.
놊Zhi suddenly thought of something. She suddenly rushed towards Jiang Yi and screamed: "Aunt! Aunt! I didn't want to harm my cousin. Please believe me, aunt. I really didn't want to harm her. I never wanted to harm my cousin - —”
"Jiang Jingyue." Jiang Yi looked at her expressionlessly, her tone of voice was calm, distinguishing between joy and anger, "Tonight is the emperor's trial of your case. It's useless for you to beg me. I have been away from the Jiang family for fourteen years, and I have nothing to do with you. I don’t know anything, how can I trust you?”
"But...but we are a family." Jiang Jingyue's face was pale, her eyes were red, and there was a humble pleading in her eyes, "Aunt, we are a family...You are the biological daughter of my grandfather and grandmother, and my father's biological daughter." Sister, my relative who has broken bones and connected tendons, aunt!”
A family?
Jiang Yi put down the tea cup, leaned forward, reached out and patted her face: "Good niece, aunt also knows that our bones and muscles are connected to each other, but it's a pity that even my daughter can tolerate this family. "Excuse me, what's the use of begging me now?"
"I am the Queen of Jin State now. I am busy with so many affairs of Jin State. How can I have time to care about your affairs of Mu State?"
"The emperor asks you a question, and you answer truthfully." Jiang Yi let go of her and sat up straight, "I have been the queen of Jin for so many years, and I have no use for your tricks. This trick is of no use to me. ”
Jiang Jingyue froze and took back her hands in despair.
Emperor Zhaocheng frowned and looked at her: "You are now the royal wife, how can you be so rude?"
Jiang Jingyue came back to her senses with a jolt, and stiffly stepped back and knelt down, her face so pale that there was no trace of blood.
The hall was as quiet as death.
Luo Shi's face turned pale. He watched helplessly as his eldest son was beaten, his second son was beaten, and his daughter was scolded. His heart felt like it was burning on fire, and he almost stood up and knelt down several times.
However, when he saw the cold and majestic face of Emperor Zhaocheng, he was so panicked that he dared not speak.
"Jiang Jingyue." Emperor Zhaocheng even called Princess Xian again, calling her by her first name, announcing that his patience had run out, "I ask you one last time, you took Yan Li's underwear, initially you wanted to deal with Yan Li Glass?"
Jiang Jingyue bit her lip, trembling with fear. She didn't dare to lie or admit it, and she was so panicked that she didn't know what to do.
"Speak!" Emperor Zhaocheng's tone was cold.
Jiang Jingyue trembled violently, tears bursting out of her eyes almost instantly, "I...I..."
Emperor Zhaocheng asked: "Are you trying to kill Yan Li?"
"I know I was wrong!" Jiang Jingyue finally admitted her mistake with tears in her eyes, "Please forgive me! My daughter-in-law thought about it at first, but then I regretted it. I know I was wrong. Please forgive me! Please forgive me. !”
Taifu Jiang and Mrs. Jiang looked at her in disbelief: "Jingyue?"
"Sister?" Jiang Tingyi looked at her in shock.
Luo Shi couldn't sit still anymore, got up and knelt on the ground with a pale face, but he didn't even dare to plead.
"You regretted it?" Emperor Zhaocheng sneered, "You regretted it, and you used the poisonous snake used to deal with Yan Li on the two nuns. If you regretted it, you dared to kill people? Blink? 께께You are so vicious at your age, this is A good granddaughter from the Jiang family!”
"Kind and weak? What a kind and weak person!"
"For the sake of the position of crown princess, you Jiang family united to bully a weak woman who has no power to restrain a chicken! You have snatched the position of crown princess and are still willing to give up, insisting on putting Yan Li to death? How can you? Why are you so evil?"
Emperor Zhaocheng slapped the case angrily: "Yan Li had a grudge against you in her previous life. How are you treating her like this in this life?!"
The overwhelming anger and the emperor's pressure shocked everyone in the Jiang family!
Jiang Yunming also knelt on the ground with a "plop".
"My daughter-in-law really knows she was wrong! I beg your father to please calm down!" Jiang Jingyue dared to raise her head, but kept begging for mercy and admitting her mistake, "Those two nuns... they were too strict, and my daughter-in-law really just died after eating them. Hand, the daughter-in-law did it on purpose, the daughter-in-law really did it on purpose..."
There was dead silence in the huge hall.
Taifu Jiang looked gloomy.
Jiang Yunming's face turned earthy and his whole body was trembling.
The Jiang brothers were as stiff as wooden statues, their gazes falling on Jiang Jingyue's face as pale as paper, almost daring to believe what they heard.
Did Jingyue really kill two nuns?
놊 was wronged by the emperor, and 놊 was scared to lie because he was forced to question?
So she really stole Yan Li's underwear and tried to let the poisonous snake bite Yan Li to death?
"Your Majesty!" Luo Shi seemed to have suddenly recovered from the blow, and knelt forward, "It is my wife who has failed to teach her daughter well, please punish me! Your Majesty, everything is my wife's fault, and your Majesty must punish me." Punish the minister's wife! Jingyue really likes the prince so much. She and the prince...놊, she and King Xian are in love and can't help themselves. I beg the emperor to forgive me for the crime of having no way to punish the minister's wife and teach her daughter. Jingyue, please beg the emperor!"
"We are in love, do you love King Xian too much?" Emperor Zhaocheng felt ridiculous for a moment when he heard these words, "In that case, I will help them."
Jiang Jingyue had a flash of auspicious premonition in her heart.
"From now on, Jiang Jingyue will be demoted to the side concubine of King Xian, and King Xian will be imprisoned in the palace together. There will be no edict for the rest of his life." Emperor Zhaocheng ordered, ruthlessly, "Xiao Changhai later returned to the palace and drafted the edict. , Send it to King Xian tomorrow morning."
"I obey the order, slave."
"I will punish the king's side concubines with a salary for one year, and let them reflect on their hard work and not accept any support from anyone."
"I obey your order."
Emperor Zhaocheng looked at Luo coldly: "Since Madam Jiang knows that she is not good at educating her daughter, she will stay at home and teach her son well in the future. She is not allowed to enter the palace without an imperial decree and is not allowed to attend official banquets. The grandson of the Jiang family is deprived of the qualifications to enter the government and join the army."
Jiang Tingyi was struck by lightning and collapsed to the ground.
Luo's face was pale and she said a word.
"Since Jiang Yunming has no meritorious name, he should have less contact with noble officials in the future." Emperor Zhaocheng stood up and said intimidatingly, "The concubine of Prince Xian has been out for a long time. When you go back tonight, tell Prince Xian that you will go to the palace to meet your uncle and aunt tomorrow morning. This is the last family banquet before your imprisonment. Don't be late."
Jiang Jingyue's face was pale and she collapsed on the ground in despair.
Concubine of Prince Xian.
The last family banquet?
Does the emperor mean that she will stay with the prince in the abandoned mansion for the rest of her life?
Tomorrow morning, she will go to the palace to pay respects to the uncle and aunt...what a great aunt.
Jiang Jingyue gritted her teeth and thought, why is Yan Li that bitch so lucky? She is a jinx!
If it were, she would end up like this!
Yan Li is the culprit.
"Go back to the palace." Emperor Zhaocheng shook his sleeves and walked away without looking back.
Jiang Yi stood up and looked around at the Jiang family members around him without any expression. His tone was cold and disgusted: "The glory and splendor that the Jiang family should have enjoyed was destroyed by your selfishness. You are so blaming people."
After that, he left without any reluctance.
