Chapter 169 The Jiang Family Was Slandered

The butler didn't even look at the loquats, but instead urged her to leave, "Miss, you should go back first, it's not too late to come and deliver them later."

Master Xiang is worrying about it, how can he have the heart to eat this.

Jiang Xingge restrained his smile, pursed his lips and looked at the housekeeper, his tone was slightly lower, "Do you dare to stop me?"

"I don't dare, but miss, it's better not to go in now." The housekeeper was distressed.

"Oh, I know, my father has something on his mind, so I just want to go in and have a look, so please let me in." Jiang Xingge said.

The housekeeper quickly waved his hand, "Miss, please don't bully the old slave, but you are really not suitable to go in at the moment, in case the prime minister gets angry..."

"I'm carrying around!" Jiang Xingge hurriedly finished and walked straight forward.

The butler didn't dare to speak too loudly, and didn't dare to stop her, so he stomped his feet anxiously.

Why is this eldest lady so stubborn!

Walking to the closed door, Jiang Xingge lowered his voice and said softly: "Father?"

After a while, Father Jiang's gloomy voice came from the room, "What's the matter?"

Jiang Xingge said: "My daughter brought some loquats, do you want to eat?"

Silence, still silence.

She was not in a hurry and waited quietly at the door. After a while, the door was opened. Jiang's father looked at his daughter with no expression of joy or anger, "You can eat by yourself."

After finishing speaking, the door was about to be closed, but Jiang Xingge quickly stopped him, "Father! My daughter has something to say."

Jiang's father pursed his lips and frowned and stared at her, while Jiang Xingge's clear eyes looked straight at her without flinching.

"Father should speak out when he has distress, and don't bear it alone."

Jiang's father's eyes were very complicated, and after a moment of confusion, he moved away, "Come in."

Jiang Xingge entered the room and put the loquat on the table. He glanced at the room and saw that there was not even a maid. Father usually has many people serving him, but this time it was indeed a bit abnormal.

The father and daughter sat opposite each other, Jiang Xingge peeled a loquat, then removed the core and handed it to Father Jiang.

Father Jiang sighed and did not move.

Seeing this, she curled her mouth, as if he didn't accept it or stop it.

Knowing her stubborn nature, Father Jiang had no choice but to take it and put it in his mouth. The flesh was sweet, but he couldn't be happy in his heart.

"Did something happen to our family?" Jiang Xingge asked cautiously.

Jiang's father paused, his face darkened in an instant, and he replied: "Go back, it's not your question."

Jiang Xingge refused to get up, showing worry on his face, "Father, I am also a member of the Jiang family, and I am also a legitimate daughter. Don't you always tell me to put the family first?"

Now she is serious, but her father refuses to talk about it.

Hearing her words, Jiang's father looked up at her with relief, and then sighed softly, "Your brother is still here, and I don't need you to share it for now."

Jiang Xingge was taken aback, a little surprised by this situation, usually her father was very strict with her, but now he said this, but the more he said this, the more worried she became.

After thinking about it, she tentatively asked, "Did Your Majesty criticize you?"

Jiang's father raised his eyes, but after all, he still couldn't resist his daughter's questioning, and said slowly: "The Holy Master has evidence of accepting bribes for the father."

What? !bribery? ? ?
Jiang Xingge's head was in a daze. It seemed that her father had never accepted bribes. At most, she had received some gifts on her birthday. But afterward, they were all counted by the Holy Spirit, and her father's official position was considered fair. How come? Bribery?

"Could it be that the Holy One made a mistake? How could father do such a thing."

Jiang's father shook his head, "Someone wrote a memorial to impeach him as a father. The reason is that I used public power for private use. I not only accepted bribes in private, but also bribed the Mu family in an attempt to control the court."

"The Holy Majesty believed it?!" Jiang Xingge stood up abruptly, his eyes widening in disbelief.

Father Jiang's tone was stern, "Sit down and talk carefully, what do you look like."

She immediately sat down obediently, but felt that it was outrageous, and said injustice: "When did you bribe uncle?? Those people can't see that you really want to use this to provoke the relationship between you and the Holy Majesty!"

Mother is uncle's biological sister. Jiang Mujiang's family was originally married, and her relationship with Qingyan's cousin is also very close. Why is it that someone finally gets tired of it and wants to make a move?

Father Jiang had a sad expression on his face. He was obviously younger than Mu Nanping, but years of hard work for the Holy One made him look older.

He is not a martial artist, but just a civil servant, and his figure is not as tall and upright as Mu Nanping, nor is he energetic. A memorial began to doubt him.

It would be a lie to say that he is not disappointed, but the most important thing right now is to dispel the doubts of the Holy Majesty, otherwise he will end up like the Mu family.

Thinking of his wife's natal family, Prime Minister Jiang was even more worried.

At least the Mu family still has prestige. Old General Mu has made great military exploits. The Holy One dared not take action lightly. In addition, his granddaughter is the appointed Crown Princess. Maybe the Crown Prince will come forward to protect him. Not many people dare to offend Nanping.

But the prime minister's mansion is different. The reliance behind the prime minister's mansion has always been the trust of the sage. Even though he offended many ministers, they dare not make mistakes under the sage's nose.

Now that the Holy Majesty questions him, the trust will collapse, which is a good opportunity for those people to make trouble.

Who can he turn to for help then?
While Jiang's father was thinking, Jiang Xingge also thought of this. She frowned tightly, and she didn't know which one killed a thousand swords to slander the prime minister's mansion.

"Father, don't worry, I'll look for Cousin Qingyan tomorrow." Uncle couldn't find Cousin Qingyan.

"Don't involve them." Father Jiang refused straight away, besides Nan Ping had just left, if he found the Mu family, wouldn't that be a guilty conscience?
And gave those people a handle.

Jiang Xingge gritted his teeth, "The Holy Majesty is really ruthless." There were all kinds of smiling faces when needed, but now that something happened, the most obvious thing was doubts.

Jiang's father was not surprised at all, "The Holy One is already suspicious, so when he saw the excerpt, he naturally had to investigate it.

Don't let your mother know beforehand, avoid her. "

He warned, after all, he was afraid that with his wife's temper, she would turn around and fight for him. Her identity was already sensitive.

Jiang Xingge nodded, "Then what method does father plan to use to solve it? Why don't you bring my brother here." We can't keep delaying, what if the sage is sincere?

Father Jiang replied: "After thinking about it for my father, I have no choice but to explain the situation to the Holy One with some precious tributes you received on your birthday, hoping to dispel his doubts."

"Okay!" Anyway, it's useless for her to keep those treasures, and it's just right to turn them in, and there will be some room in her warehouse to store other things.

Hearing that the embroidered Luoshang has a new style, she still thinks there are not enough clothes.

Jiang's father was quite satisfied with his daughter's reaction.
