Chapter 274: Meeting the Emperor in the Morning and Asking for a Reward
The next day, it was sunny.
Eunuch Shang was standing at the door in person, waiting for Lord Jiu who was returning to Beijing to report on his work. From a distance, he saw the most dazzling woman among the group of men, with skin as white as the moon.
There are also many people following Jiusu.
Lord Li said, "Yuyu, don't be afraid. Even if they don't know about our relationship, I will still speak for you. Whatever you want to do, just go ahead and do it."
"Okay." Jiusu raised his head and walked down the high steps toward the magnificent palace. This was the Hall of Supreme Harmony seen in TV dramas, where court meetings were held.
The pressure from the emperor was so overwhelming that it was hard to breathe.
The ministers walked in groups of three or two and when they entered the hall, they dared not speak again. They all lowered their heads, waiting for the emperor to come out. Prince Chang had nothing to do.
"Oh, a woman is an official."
I've been annoyed with him for a long time, but he ignored me.
Prince Chang felt somewhat embarrassed, and he wanted to say something else.
Following the eunuch Shang's voice, "The Emperor has arrived."
Everyone fell silent and knelt on the ground.
"Long live my emperor."
Jiusu could feel a strong gaze directed at her. If she had not been confident, she would have fainted. She was not wearing court clothes, only a dark blue dress, which made her blend in with the ministers.
Emperor Xu said, "My dear ministers, please stand up. It is rare that so many of you have come together."
As he spoke, he walked down the steps and came to the middle of the civil and military ranks, facing the newly appointed Salt Transport Commissioner. This official was neither big nor small, in other words, he had no real power, but it was indeed a lucrative job.
In fact, the most important thing is that a woman is qualified for this position.
Lord Li reminded: "Your Majesty, you scared her."
"Hmm?" Emperor Xu raised his head, glanced at the Marquis, and smiled, "The Marquis will also be kind to women. Lord Jiu, I finally see you. You don't know that the Crown Prince has been praising you, saying that you are a rare genius. Please report your work."
Jiusu nodded, his eyes calm and he said: "Fine salt has been mass-produced. In another six months, the entire Xu State will be able to eat fine salt. All the money earned will be donated to the national treasury."
As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar.
Even the emperor was surprised for a few seconds.
In fact, Jiusu didn't want to hand over so much silver, but this was indeed a lucrative job if he wanted to keep his position or gain a firm foothold.
Sacrifices must be made.
This was the solution she came up with after thinking about it all night.
Because, she will ask the emperor for reward soon.
Emperor Xu was furious and praised him several times: "The prince really did not make a mistake. I am so relieved. My dear, just ask for whatever you want. Even if you want the moon in the sky, I will order someone to pick it for you!"
Jiusu wanted to ask, if she really wanted it, the emperor would not be happy.
At this time Jiang Jinyou also understood her intention. Just as he raised his foot, he saw her kneeling on the ground. He sighed in his heart that meeting Jiusu was a blessing for their whole family.
"Your Majesty, I don't want the moon or the stars," she said, "I just want justice."
The ministers had already heard yesterday's rumors. They looked calm and were ready to watch the fun.
Emperor Xu sat back on the dragon throne and asked, "Justice? Who bullied Lord Xu? I will definitely give you justice."
Jiusu spoke simply and concisely. She was not afraid of offending Princess Jiayun or any other concubines in the harem. She just wanted to seek justice for her Nian Yin.
"Yesterday, Princess Jiayun openly kidnapped Jiang Nianyin and imprisoned her in her bedroom. When she was found, she was covered in whip wounds! This is a heinous act. Please let the emperor make the decision."
Princess or salt silver.
The emperor always has to choose one and sacrifice one.
Jiang Jinyou walked out and knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, please make the decision for your daughter!"
Jiang Jing followed behind him and slowly knelt down.
"Your Majesty, please make the decision!"
Lord Li clenched his fists and looked at his daughter's sad back. He said excitedly, "It's so vicious. Let's not talk about Jiang Nianyin being Lord Jiang's daughter. Even if she is an ordinary citizen, you can't just beat her or scold her. Is there any law? Your Majesty, please make the decision for Miss Jiang."
Emperor Xu's chest rose and fell, and anger blazed in his dark eyes.
However, they didn’t know whether it was for Chong Jiusu and others, or for Princess Jiayun.
At this moment, An Wenzhi walked up behind the Jiang father and son and knelt down.
"Your Majesty, please make the decision for me."
Emperor Xu was just worried about where to vent his anger: "I'm in charge of you? What kind of decision did I make for you? And you got beaten up too?"
An Wenzhi said, "I deserve to die. I have no feelings for the princess, which led to the current situation. Unfortunately, I hurt Miss Jiang. Please allow me and the princess to divorce. Even if the princess divorces her husband, I will accept it!"
In ancient times, it was a great shame for a man to be divorced by a woman.
It's really surprising that Lord Ke An would rather be divorced than be with Princess Jiayun.
Emperor Xu knew the love, hatred and vengeance between the three people.
But the treasury was empty and he really needed money.
He suppressed his anger and said, "My dear Lord Jiu, don't worry, I will definitely make the most fair judgment and punishment."
Jiusu bent down: "Your Majesty is wise."
"Retreat!"
Accompanied by a shrill voice, the ministers knelt on the ground, waiting for the emperor to leave the hall. After leaving the hall, they all wanted to find some reason to talk to Jiusu.
The generals scratched their heads, not knowing what to say, and left.
The civil official was just about to give a reason, but before he could walk over, he saw Eunuch Shang passing by.
Eunuch Shang said respectfully, "Please stay. The emperor has ordered you to go to the imperial study. Uh, Lord, you don't need to go, right?"
I don’t know what happened to the Marquis.
After coming back from other places, I like to join in the fun.
Jiusu said: "You should go back home first."
How could Madam let Lord Li go back so easily? He thought for a moment and said, "I'll wait for you at the palace gate."
One is the newly favored Jiusu, and the other is the Jiang family who has regained favor. The emperor couldn't bear to scold them.
I can only attack An Wenzhi madly.
"Divorce? Divorce your husband? You really bring shame to me! Do you treat marriage as a joke? An Wenzhi, if you don't give me a reasonable request today, I will chop off your head!"
An Wenzhi knelt upright on the ground: "I am not worthy of the princess."
Emperor Xu was too lazy to talk to him.
If it weren't for the fact that Mr. An was his grandmaster, he would have been dragged out long ago.
a long time.
The two parties arrived at the hall almost at the same time. Jiang Nianyin was in great pain, she walked strangely, and the wound on her face was still scary. She knelt on the ground.
"My daughter has met the emperor."
"Xu Jiayun beat him?" Emperor Xu put down the memorial, filled with anger. There were so many wounds on his face and the back of his hands, not to mention the invisible places.
Jiang Nianyin nodded.
Emperor Xu took a deep breath, raised his hand and said, "Sit aside first."
Xu Jincai came with Concubine Rong.
The mother and daughter held each other's hands. As soon as they stepped through the door, they were frightened by the emperor's cold eyes. Concubine Rong quickly pushed her to kneel down and saluted nervously.
Concubine Rong mustered up her courage, walked towards the emperor, and placed her hand on his shoulder, "Emperor...ah!"
Emperor Xu waved his hands vigorously and threw the concubine to the ground.
"Your good daughter! She kidnapped someone, imprisoned her and beat her?"
Concubine Rong knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, it is all my fault. Jiayun is a princess and is a little willful, but she is your daughter after all. I hope Your Majesty will forgive her for the sake of our relationship. She really knows she is wrong."
