To support exiled officials, start by worshipping the God of Wealth

Chapter 377 Winter is not a good word, and I am not worthy of you

Away from the night market, the crowds gradually thinned out.

"Hey!"

Song sighed.

Jiang's mother had been listening all the way.

She asked, "What happened?"

Song shook her head. The two families had fallen out. She was not as frank as the two of them. She lowered her head and said, "I want to apologize to you and Nian Yin. I strongly opposed it at the time and even designed to let...let Wen Zhi go astray. I was blinded by greed. I'm sorry."

The high walls of the alley blocked out the lights in the distance.

It also obscured the expression on her face.

Mother Jiang didn't know what to say.

Song walked up to the two of them, knelt on the ground, and cried, "Mrs. Jiang, I beg you, don't blame the child for the mistakes I made."

Mother Jiang held her hand and looked at her daughter.

"Help your Aunt Song up quickly." She frowned and said, "What are you doing? You are making a fool of yourself by showing it to others."

Song choked up and said, "In the past, I was always afraid of face. I lost a lot of things, and face is the least valuable! The feelings of children are more important. Nian Yin, I don't ask for your forgiveness, but you must forgive Wen Zhi. He is in great danger this time when he went south..."

Thinking of An Wenzhi’s heavy separation.

Jiang Nianyin's heart sank. She said, "Don't worry, Auntie. He will come back safely. I have forgiven him a long time ago. It's getting dark. Let's go home quickly."

The Jiang family arrived first.

Jiang's mother asked the guards in the mansion to send Song home. She comforted her, "Let's not get involved in the child's affairs. Go back and have a good rest. We are only forty. Tomorrow, I will ask you to go for maintenance."

In the palace.

Dongpin had just finished serving the emperor and was about to take a bath when she heard the news from the palace servant that her brother had died. She gritted her teeth and glanced at the emperor who was sleeping behind her.

She walked into the yard.

He suppressed his anger and his voice became hoarse.

"Who killed him? He's my own brother!"

The maid glanced at the collapsed Dongpin and whispered, "Master Jiang."

"Who!?" Dongpin thought she was hallucinating. There was only one high-ranking official in Shengjing with the surname Jiang. "Is it Jiang Jing? Why would he conflict with my brother?"

The maid said, "Well, it seems that the young master has been teasing the young lady for a long time."

Dongpin's eyes were red. She had only one brother, the only son in the family. She had clearly protected her brother well. She squatted on the ground and cried, "Isn't she just a woman? How could my brother dare to tease Jiusu? Jiusu must have been fickle and seduced my brother. Lord Jiang saw it. My brother died so unjustly..."

After a sleepless night, Emperor Xu opened his eyes and met Concubine Dong’s red eyes.

He sat up, looked at the woman who served him silently, and asked, "What's wrong? Did you have a nightmare?"

Dongpin shook her head: "No."

Emperor Xu laughed, stretched out his hand to pinch her chin, and asked, "My beauty, what happened? Did someone in the palace bully you? Did the queen scold you? No? Then did the imperial concubine beat you?"

I was fine before going to bed last night.

Could it be that he was too strong and hurt her?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.

Unfortunately, no.

Dongpin said: "My younger brother was killed."

Emperor Xu was furious. He kicked the stool in front of him away and said dissatisfiedly, "Who is so bold as to commit a crime under the feet of the emperor? Has that person been caught? I will sentence him to death!"

He put his arms around Dongbin's shoulders and vowed to seek justice for her.

At this moment, Dongbin was moved.

But she knew it was impossible.

Would the emperor kill an important official for her? It's not impossible. In history, there are many examples of men getting angry for their beloved. She bit her lower lip and hooked the emperor's belt.

"It's Jiang Jing."

These three words changed Emperor Xu's attitude.

He said: "Jiang Jing is not an impulsive person. There must be some hidden story here. I will give you an explanation after I find out the truth."

"Your Majesty..." Dongpin wanted to say something, but the emperor had already walked away.

Emperor Xu waved his hand: "I will go to court."

Dongpin stamped her feet, took a deep breath, felt bitter in her heart, handed a bag of silver to the maid, sobbed and said: "I can't leave the palace, you take this silver and find his body..."

When she said these two words, she still felt a little dizzy.

"Buy him a good place to bury him. He hasn't married yet, so you can find him a woman and hold a ghost marriage for him. This is the only thing I can do for him as his sister."

Huiqiao agreed and left the palace with the silver.

in the hall.

Emperor Xu heard about two things. One was that there was an infectious disease, but it was suppressed by Jiusu. The other was that a big case happened in Yongjiang.

He rewarded Jiusu and Xu Jincai.

He ordered again.

"The Cai family was wiped out, and the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple worked together to investigate the case."

The two took orders.

After the court session, Emperor Xu frowned when he heard that Concubine Dong was about to die, but he still went there because he still liked Concubine Dong.

Dongpin's face was pale. When she saw the emperor trying to salute, he bent over and hugged her. Her eyes immediately turned red. "Your Majesty, why are you here? Did someone spread rumors that I was being pretentious?"

Emperor Xu shook his head: "No, I know your brother..."

"Your Majesty." Dongpin raised her head, put her finger on the man's lips, and looked at him seductively. "I know that he offended Miss Jiu, and he deserves it. I am really sad, but there is a happy event that dispels the sadness in my heart."

Emperor Xu asked curiously, "What's the happy event? Let me be happy too."

Dongpin lowered her head shyly and said, "Just now the imperial physician came to check my pulse and said... that I am pregnant and have been two months pregnant."

"That's great!" Emperor Xu hadn't heard such happy news for a long time. The white hair on his temples was shining. "I'm so happy. You really made me proud. Those old ministers must have thought that I was no longer capable, but I'm still strong and healthy!"

"Dongpin..."

"No, the word winter is not good, and I am not worthy of you."

She couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, "Your Majesty, isn't this too ostentatious?"

Emperor Xu thought about it and wrote a word on the paper.

"I am willing, who cares? From now on, you will be Concubine Xi and move to Shuyu Palace." He hugged Concubine Xi and rested on the bed, while the rewards were moved into the palace one by one.

As soon as this matter came out, it caused quite a stir.

The Queen's palace was quiet, and some standard supplements were delivered.

Concubine Yin rolled her eyes and forgot about it.

Concubine Qi Jing was so angry that she smashed everything in the palace to pieces. Her screams scared the maids in the palace, "One by one, come and compete with me for my favor!"

Nu Yue knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

"My queen, please don't get so angry that you get yourself hurt. That woman was sent by the prince. She is yours after all."

"Hmph." Imperial Concubine Qi Jing sat sideways on a round stool, her hands on the table, and said sharply, "That bastard will only make this palace upset."

Xu Cairong strode over with a smile.

He was sweating all over, having just returned from the martial arts training ground.

"Mother, who is the bastard?"
