In the rebirth, the abandoned wife of a noble family turned black
Chapter 282 This ends here
She never expected that her beloved daughter would die so young. If it weren't for Jiang Ruanxi, their family would be fine now.
As she cried, her eyes were filled with deep hatred.
Jiang Minghuai thought about the fact that several children of their Jiang family had died, and it was all because of Jiang Ruanxi's handiwork. His face turned stern.
He placed the cup heavily on the table and said through gritted teeth, "Don't worry, I won't let her go. I will make her pay with blood. She can't escape this time."
"General Jiang."
Suddenly, a faint voice came from outside the door.
Jiang Minghuai and Wei both looked outside the door and found that the person coming was Jiang Kui.
"Ah."
Jiang Minghuai didn't seem to be excited at all to see his son after a long time, and Wei's face suddenly became serious and full of respect.
Jiang Kui came up to them and got straight to the point, "Father is back, has he brought back any troops?"
Jiang Minghuai was stunned. He didn't expect him to be so direct. His eyes narrowed slightly.
He drank his tea in silence and did not answer.
Jiang Kui didn't care either.
"General Jiang just came back, he probably doesn't know the current situation in Kyoto, right?"
"Know a thing or two."
Jiang Minghuai put the cup down and glanced at him.
"That's good. Now that the prince is in prison, it's our best opportunity. General Jiang, why don't you tell me the truth so that we can discuss it properly."
Jiang Minghuai looked at Jiang Kui deeply, his eyes full of complexity.
Suddenly, his eyes turned to Wei.
"Go out first and don't let anyone get close to here."
Wei knew they were going to talk about something, so he nodded, turned around and went out and closed the door.
**
Palace banquet.
The moon had already hung in the sky and snowflakes were falling gently. People standing outside felt their hands frozen and no one dared to go out for a step.
The room was brightly lit, and people were drinking tea, making it very lively.
Emperor Qin stood on a high seat, raised his glass and said to the people below, "General Jiang has returned to Kyoto after twenty years. I am very happy today. This glass is my toast to General Jiang for guarding the border and protecting our Qin Dynasty. Let's toast to General Jiang together."
When the ministers heard Emperor Qin say this, everyone had a smile on their face and stood up to flatter Jiang Minghuai.
"Respect General Jiang."
Jiang Minghuai seemed to have seen and heard nothing, and sat in his seat unmoved.
Chew the food in your mouth slowly.
Seeing that Jiang Minghuai didn't give him face, his face suddenly darkened.
When he was about to lose his temper, Jiang Minghuai raised his head and looked at Emperor Qin and the ministers with an apologetic look.
"Your Majesty and the ministers appreciate your kindness, but I have been at the border for so many years, and because of the frequent mutations, I have long since given up drinking and never drink."
Even if Emperor Qin was dissatisfied, since Jiang Minghuai had said so, he could not say anything else.
After restraining his expression, Emperor Qin smiled and said, "General Jiang is doing this for the country and the people. I understand. In this case, I will not force you."
After Emperor Qin placed the cup on the table, he sat down as well, but his expression did not look very good.
The other ministers also sat down trembling, not daring to breathe.
The atmosphere was no longer the same as before.
Jiang Minghuai seemed not to see it. He took the chicken leg beside him and started eating it.
"Your Majesty, the chicken legs in Kyoto are really delicious. They are hundreds of times more delicious than those in the border areas." Jiang Minghuai looked at Emperor Qin with his mouth full of oil.
Looking at Jiang Minghuai, who looked like a starving ghost, Emperor Qin felt relieved.
Originally, he thought that Jiang Minghuai would become a threat to the emperor because of his great achievements, but now it seems that Jiang Minghuai has stayed at the border for a long time and has become one with the barbarians there.
"General Jiang, if you think it's delicious, eat more."
The Emperor was in a very happy mood, and his speech naturally became much more cheerful.
But after saying this, a hint of contempt flashed across his eyes.
I couldn't help but curse in my heart: I can't help but kill you!
Jiang Minghuai seemed not to notice and said with a smile, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
After saying that, he took a big bite and put it into his mouth.
Seeing that Emperor Qin's complexion had improved, the ministers became active again.
These episodes passed quickly and the atmosphere became lively again.
After the banquet ended, it was already late at night.
Jiang Minghuai walked out of the banquet hall with a cold look in his eyes.
He no longer looked as inexperienced as before.
After walking a few steps, a palace maid suddenly appeared beside him. After whispering something to him, he glanced at the palace maid in front of him, and Jiang Minghuai turned around and walked towards the inner palace.
What he didn't realize was that there was a pair of eyes staring at him and following his footsteps.
Jiang Ruanxi looked at the note passed from the palace in front of her, her eyes turned cold and a sneer appeared at the corners of her mouth.
He raised his white hand and burned the note.
I couldn't help but mutter to myself, "Interesting, I didn't expect they had such a connection."
Early the next morning, Jiang Minghuai had already returned to Beijing, so he also had to go to court.
"The Queen's funeral has been decided. It will be held according to my decree."
"Yes, Your Majesty." The ministers said in unison.
Although they didn't know what the Emperor was thinking, and knowing what the Queen had done, he still wanted to bury her with honor, they didn't dare to say anything.
"Is there anything else? If not, please leave the court."
Emperor Qin glanced sharply at the people in the hall.
There was silence in the hall for several seconds, but Emperor Qin thought that no one had any problems, so he was about to stand up when Lord Li, the Imperial Censor, stepped forward and knelt down with a serious face.
"Your Majesty, I have something to report."
Lord Li has gray hair and a few wrinkles on his face, but he looks energetic.
Emperor Qin's eyes flashed with displeasure.
Generally speaking, whenever Lord Li speaks, nothing good happens.
"Lord Li, is there anything I can do for you?" Emperor Qin suppressed his emotions and said calmly.
Lord Li looked at Emperor Qin with a serious face.
"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince killed the Queen. Although he has not yet been completely convicted, he has committed such a heinous crime and is no longer fit to be the Crown Prince. Your Majesty, please depose the Crown Prince and appoint someone else as the Crown Prince."
When he said this, everyone was shocked.
Everyone knows this truth, but no one dared to say it out loud before.
Emperor Qin's face also darkened.
The hands at his sides were clenched tightly.
"Didn't I tell you long ago that this matter should end here and not be mentioned again?"
"Your Majesty, the prince will be the ruler of Qin in the future. How can you make such a disloyal person the king? Also, the prince did such a thing, and Your Majesty is going to let him go. But is that fair to the people of Qin?" Lord Li asked righteously.
As he spoke, half of the ministers in the court knelt down and agreed with him.
"Your Majesty, please depose the crown prince, reappoint a new crown prince, and seek justice for the queen."
