I'll tell you the secret and let's laugh together!

Following Mrs. Shen's words, Mrs. Wang continued to put pressure on Mrs. Jiang.

"Jiang, we have enough evidence. This evidence is enough to nail you to the pillar of shame for thousands of years. Let's see who dares to marry the daughter of the Jiang family. In the future, you will be the sinner of the Jiang family. The Jiang family will be ashamed because of you, and your parents will be cursed by everyone for raising a daughter like you!"

Shocked by the terrible consequences that Wang described, and thinking of the nanny who was missing when the servants were cleaned up, Jiang's psychological defenses were broken. She has been deeply tortured for so many years and unable to sleep at night!

It was not because he felt regret or fear for killing Shen, but because he was worried that the old woman who ran away saw something she shouldn't have seen. He was afraid that one day she would come back and accuse him of being the murderer of Shen. He was afraid that all his hard work would come to nothing!

The most frightening scene in her heart was pointed out by Old Madam Shen and Mrs. Wang. Jiang felt that her breathing was becoming more and more difficult. When her consciousness was hazy, the face of Old Madam Shen gradually overlapped with that of Mrs. Shen who was strangled to death by her.

"what!"

"Don't, don't come after me. I didn't mean to kill you. It was you who was so useless. I just wanted to scare you. Who knew you were so useless and died in an instant!"

"Please don't come after me, I won't dare to do it again, I really won't dare to do it again!"

After Jiang's psychological defenses were breached, his entire spirit received a great shock. He became confused and a little crazy, and began to beg for mercy frantically as if in a dream.

In her dreams, as long as she kowtowed and begged for mercy, she would eventually wake up. I guess it will be the same this time.

"Your Majesty, this is impossible. Jiang would never do anything that is against the will of heaven and earth." The imperial concubine defended Jiang. She did not order the palace servants to do it, but stepped forward and slapped Jiang a few times.

"Wake up, what are you talking about!"

But Jiang was so frightened that she only cared about begging for mercy and admitting her mistakes, and ignored the imperial concubine's words.

Emperor Mu Wu's solemn voice sounded, "Jiang conspired to murder the wife of Duke Ding. This crime is unforgivable. I will give you poisoned wine!"

"The noble concubine has recently behaved in an indecent manner and maliciously targeted the daughter of an important official. She is demoted to the rank of concubine."

Demoting the Imperial Concubine's rank was the result of careful consideration. He could not let the Imperial Concubine off repeatedly just for the sake of the Third Prince's face. After the Second Prince and Ning Zhiyi's remarks, Emperor Mu Wu also realized that his previous practices were inappropriate.

Now that you are aware of the problem, you must correct it in time!

The most important thing is that he found that after being in a high position for a long time, the imperial concubine's heart seemed to have grown up. If it was just her, it would be fine. He could not accept that the third prince was influenced by the imperial concubine and developed thoughts that he shouldn't have. This was the last thing he wanted to see.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty obeys your command!"

Seeing Emperor Mu Wu's cold expression, the imperial concubine did not dare to plead for Jiang, nor did she dare to defend herself. She was very sensitive to emotions, and when Emperor Mu Wu was not really angry, she still dared to be clever. But once Emperor Mu Wu was really angry, she would not dare to be presumptuous anymore!

People always have the instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm. No one dared to blame Emperor Mu Wu. The imperial concubine blamed everything on the queen. She had said before that she could guarantee Jiang, but that was just talk. Why did she really have to be demoted?

It’s all the Queen’s fault, it’s all her fault. If she hadn’t asked him to guarantee, the Emperor wouldn’t have demoted her today!

"Thank you, Your Majesty, and thank you for your grace!" Old Madam Shen knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily!

Emperor Mu Wu personally stood up and supported Madam Shen, "The dead are gone, take care of yourself."

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Can you let me handle the matter of dealing with Jiang?"

The imperial concubine held her breath, fearing that Emperor Mu Wu would agree.

"Yes!"

After getting the approval, Old Madam Shen couldn't wait to take the gagged Jiang back home, but a few young eunuchs followed her.

"My queen, please return to the palace."

The imperial concubine stood up. She didn't understand the point of asking her to come out. Was it just to demote her?

As soon as the imperial concubine left, the atmosphere on the scene returned to harmony, and the second prince also had the energy to show off, "Father, you made a very wise and reasonable decision."

The Fourth Prince was obviously smarter than the Second Prince, and he hurriedly reminded him, "Second Brother, you can't say that. Aren't you saying that the decisions that Father made in the past were unreasonable?"

"What Fourth Prince said makes sense." The Second Prince suddenly realized, and quickly added: "The decisions that Father made in the past were also very wise and reasonable!"

Emperor Muwu: ...

The fifth prince always felt that something was wrong and looked at his two brothers in surprise.

[Hahaha, the Fourth Prince finally decided to go out for a walk. I almost forgot what he looked like.] Ning Zhiyi touched her own black face and looked at the white Fourth Prince with great envy.

[He is so fair, Tong'er, I would like to ask the Fourth Prince how to take care of the skin.]

The system made a sound, "Then you don't need to ask, I know the answer, he just turned wiry. He stayed in the palace all day long studying things, never seeing the sun, and he turned wiry after a while."

[In fact, if you wash your face, it will become whiter. ]

Ning Zhiyi made a gesture of refusal, [Forget it, I feel quite safe now. Why does the Fourth Prince always like to squint his eyes? But this action makes him look more funny. I want to laugh when I see him, haha.]

The Fourth Prince tried hard to open his eyes wide. He didn't want to squint. In fact, he could see more clearly if he squinted, so he subconsciously wanted to squint.

Seeing him widen his eyes for a while and then unconsciously squint them, Emperor Mu Wu couldn't help but chuckle. The Fourth Prince was attracted by this movement.

His clever brain worked quickly. His father's smile = his father was in a good mood, and good mood = he was willing to give money.

"Father, I have something I would like to ask for your approval."

Emperor Mu Wu: "No, you don't want to."

The Fourth Prince: "My son wants to!"

Emperor Mu Wu: "I don't, really don't!"

The others were confused by the father and son's charades. The eyes of the Second Prince and the Fifth Prince were full of confusion. Ning Zhiyi was also confused. Fortunately, the system was considerate and took the initiative to answer her questions without waiting for her to ask.

[Host, this is the classic way the Fourth Prince asks for money. He likes to study some strange things and usually doesn't leave the palace. Once he leaves the palace, he will most likely ask Emperor Mu Wu for money, haha.]

The Fourth Prince's fair face turned red when he was stared at by others. He felt very embarrassed. If you don't study, you won't know how expensive things are!

Many of his research required the use of many precious or rare things. In other words, he needed a lot of expensive things, especially silver, which he was very reluctant to spend.

"Hehe, Father, please give me some more silver. I will return it to you when I get my monthly salary."

Emperor Mu Wu's answer was still cold and ruthless, just two words, "No."

Seeing how heartless Emperor Mu Wu was, the Fifth Prince was worried that his brother would misunderstand him the same way he had before, so he explained, "Fourth Prince, please don't misunderstand. Father didn't mean to not give it to you. He is really poor. I heard from Second Prince that Father was so poor that his private treasury was empty. He no longer grows flowers or grass, but instead raises rats."

The Second Prince: "Ahem!"
