A tragic death in his previous life! Reborn to marry a stupid king and seize your kingdom

Chapter 8 Feeling like a world away

After saying that, he glanced at Eunuch Zhang and said in a cold voice: "According to the imperial edict, please handle it accordingly."

After Zhang Baoyu saluted, his face was expressionless: "Jiang Fenghua has disobeyed the emperor. According to the laws of the Northern Kingdom, he will be whipped ten times. The emperor remembers that you are a first offender, and the punishment will be halved."

Jiang Yan hurriedly pulled Jiang Fenghua to kneel down to express his gratitude: "I thank the Lord for His kindness!"

"Your Majesty, the civilian girl was wronged, why should she deserve this punishment?" Jiang Fenghua's face darkened, she raised her hand and slapped away Jiang Yan's hand that was holding her arm, looking directly at the Emperor.

At this moment, the gauze curtains of the side hall were opened layer by layer, and Concubine Yuan walked out with the support of the palace maid. She was wearing a thin navy blue cloak. Her too slender figure showed her newly bulging belly. His face was still a little pale, but his cheeks were slightly flushed due to coughing and holding back his breath. When he was about to reach the emperor, he staggered and almost fell down.

The emperor quickly supported her and carefully led her to a chair to sit down, "Why did Yuan'er come out? It's cold outside, be careful of catching a cold."

Concubine Yuan smiled and called out: "Your Majesty, please come out and see who is the original culprit who made me jump into the pond in the cold spring."

Her eyes passed through the emperor and glanced back and forth at Jiang Fengqing and Jiang Fenghua. Her eyes finally fell on the face of Jiang Fenghua who refused to kneel down to thank him. Her plain eyebrows were slightly frowned, giving her a hint of murderous aura.

Asked Jiang Fenghua for the second time: "What exactly did you say to Jiang Fengqing on the carriage entering the palace?"

Jiang Fengqing also turned her head and stared directly at Jiang Fenghua.

Jiang Fenghua's face turned pale again. She bit her lower lip and stared at Concubine Yuan in front of her with a lump in her throat, but she could never say what she said to Jiang Fengqing in the carriage.

After hesitating for a moment, his knees finally bent and he could only kneel down to thank the emperor for his kindness.

No matter how reluctant Jiang Fenghua was, now that the holy mouth had been opened, she had to bear this unfounded crime.

"She not only misbehaved in front of the palace, but also spread rumors in the palace and instigated the sixth prince to jump into the pond. She also almost strangled her own sister to death in front of me. How should these accounts be settled?" The emperor glanced at Jiang Fenghua and picked up the already He tasted the cold tea carefully without even looking at Jiang Yan.

Jiang Yan was already frightened so much that chills ran down his spine, his whole body became stiff, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He didn't know what kind of punishment was waiting for him, or for the Jiang family.

After Jiang Yan knelt down until he felt numb all over, the emperor put down the tea cup and said in a calm tone: "I think this is because Jiang Yong is not good at raising his daughter, so he should stop being an imperial merchant; Jiang Yan also allowed his eldest daughter to hurt others in the palace. The fine will be six months, and the notice in Zichen Hall will be posted for three days."

Hearing this result, Jiang Fengqing breathed a sigh of relief.

When Xiaoying helped Jiang Fengqing walk out of Changchun Palace, her father had long disappeared. Her sister Yao Bin had already left after knowing that she was not involved in the matter.

Jiang Fengqing walked slowly, thinking about the details just now, and she was a little lost.

How could Nangong Li's appearance be so coincidental?

Jiang Fenghua really met Nangong Li again and talked to him?
  Seeing that her young lady was still a little unhappy, Xiaoying asked distressedly: "Miss, does your neck still hurt? I'll go to the doctor tomorrow to get you some medicine. It won't hurt after you use it. You might as well hurry up and finally The important thing is that there will be no scarring.”

"Young lady looks like a flower, what if there is a scar on her neck?"

General Jiang Fengqing came back to his senses and glanced sideways at Xiaoying, "Stop it, Xiaoying, I just have a little skin on my neck, it's not as serious as you said."

She rubbed her red neck and sighed in annoyance. She had gone too far in the Changchun Palace and really hurt herself. Her neck still hurts.

Looking up again, he saw a woman not far away looking anxiously towards the gate of Changchun Palace, but she still maintained the demeanor of a courtier's wife.

This woman is wearing a glacier silver brocade dress with light brown marigolds embroidered on the cuffs. Although the style is a bit old-fashioned, it looks inexplicably proud when she wears it; the red cherry hairpin on her bun makes her look a little brighter. , a few stray strands of hair were blown by the wind on his face.

After seeing Jiang Fengqing approaching, the woman subconsciously took a step back and looked at Jiang Fengqing in panic. She wanted to come over and ask about the situation, but she hesitated and did not dare to approach.

"Mother?"

Jiang Fengqing paused in her steps and looked at Mrs. Jiang across from her from afar. Tears already burst out of her eyes, and her guilt was palpable. In her previous life, she had an arrogant personality and had always looked down on her mother, who was weak and obedient to her father. From the time when she was the president, when she first became mentally enlightened, she had been closer to her second aunt, and she had never treated Bai Yuqian, her own mother. She scolded her very hard, and even pinched her until she was black and blue. Even so, her mother used to spoil her and never said a harsh word to her.

But the more her mother behaved like this, the more she indulged her naughty temper.

Later, even in front of outsiders, he dared to punch and kick his mother, and no one took him seriously.

Anyway, no matter what she does, the second aunt loves her unconditionally. No matter how big the trouble is, she will always wipe her butt and take the responsibility on herself immediately.

In the past, Jiang Fengqing felt that the second concubine was gentle and kind to her than her own mother. Why wasn't the second concubine her biological mother?

Now that I think about it, it's really a good move!

She was so doted on that she didn't know how high the heaven and earth were, and she dared to talk back and talk nonsense in front of everyone. If it weren't for her grandfather's strong family support, she and the Jiang family would have died countless times.

"Miss, madam, madam has been standing in the corridor for almost an hour. Please stop scolding madam..." Xiaoying raised her eyes and looked at Jiang Fengqing timidly. Usually, the lady doesn't like madam no matter how she looks at her. Every time she sees madam, He even said a few sarcastic words, but she couldn't bear it.

Jiang Fengqing's tears flowed more unbridled. She raised her hand to wipe it over and over again, but there were still tear stains on her face.

"Miss, what's wrong with you? Miss?" This move obviously startled Xiaoying beside him, and he hurriedly took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears.

Mrs. Jiang took an eager step forward, looked at her with worried eyes, pursed her lips, and asked hesitantly: "Feng Qing, don't you want to see my mother?"

After saying that, Mrs. Jiang took a few steps back and looked at Jiang Fengqing reluctantly, her eyes flushed, "Don't cry, you don't want to see my mother, my mother is walking back to her house right now, and I won't let you see her." Upset."

Seeing Mrs. Jiang walking away with her stiff back, Jiang Fengqing quickly ran over and hugged her from behind. He put his head on her shoulder and murmured in a low voice: "Mother, I miss you..."

In an instant, tears wet Mrs. Jiang's shoulders.

Mrs. Jiang froze and stood there for a long time before she turned to look at Jiang Fengqing in disbelief. Her eyes were red. When her fingertips touched the red mark on her neck, she retracted her hand as if she was electrocuted. He turned to hold her hand and caressed it carefully, "Feng Qing, I have made you feel wronged."

"No..." Jiang Fengqing sniffed, wiped the tears from her face, rolled her eyes, and choked in her voice: "The emperor understood everything clearly and restored his daughter's innocence."

Xiaoying, on the other hand, patted her chest with a frightened look on her face: "Madam, you don't know, the situation in Changchun Palace just now was so tense..."

Jiang Fengqing's ears seemed to be blocked by two balls of cotton. She couldn't hear Xiaoying's description of what just happened. She just looked at Mrs. Jiang dreamingly.

In her previous life, her mother did not agree with her marrying Nangong Zhuo, saying that although Nangong Zhuo looked modest and polite, he was always separated from others.

At that time, my father wanted to drag my grandfather to support Nangong Li. My mother and my father had a big fight. After that, the relationship with my father became worse day by day. In the end, my mother would rather lock herself in a Buddhist temple than see her father again.

My mother had always obeyed my father's advice, but at that time she had been hiding in the Buddhist hall and would not come out no matter how much her father coaxed her out. Dad was deeply shocked and smashed the Buddhist hall to pieces in a fit of rage.

The mother had no choice but to write a letter of divorce and left the Jiang Mansion, but did not return to the Bai family.

My mother disappeared from that time.

At that time, Jiang Fengqing didn't even want to see her mother. Now that she thought about it, the last time she saw her mother in her previous life was when she left in anger.

Jiang Fengqing touched Mrs. Jiang's temples tremblingly, her heart aching. My mother is only in her mid-thirties now. She has white hair and looks a little older.

At this moment, Jiang Fengqing personally experienced the feeling of being in a different world.
