The poisonous concubine is very arrogant, making the crippled king blush and his heart beat fast
Chapter 248: Questions to Consider
When the emperor heard this, his fingers trembled in shock.
How could I forget this?
She knows medical skills, so saying she's not feeling well gives her more reason to come in.
Eunuch Fu was also silent for a while, not knowing what to say. He hesitated for a while and then said, "It's...it's not a big problem. Just take a rest."
Jiang Mengli: "It's better to take the pulse first, don't be careless..."
The emperor sighed deeply and said helplessly, "Come in."
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open.
"I, a humble lady, pay my respects to Your Majesty. Long live the emperor." Jiang Mengli knelt down and saluted.
"No need to be polite. Sit down and talk." The emperor frowned in mock discomfort. "What is it that brings you to me in such a hurry?"
Jiang Mengli smiled politely and said, "Your Majesty, you should know what I am here to ask."
The emperor immediately waved his hand, "I don't know. I'm not a worm in your stomach, how could I possibly know what you're doing here?"
These words made Jiang Mengli's mouth twitch.
If you start playing dumb now, it means the situation is not optimistic.
Alas... I thought it was not a big problem at first, but now it seems that I was too naive.
cough cough...
Jiang Mengli coughed twice and said, "Your Majesty, I want to ask about my parents' return to the capital. I wonder if Your Majesty has considered it clearly?"
The emperor pretended to be surprised and said, "Oh, so it's this matter. I almost forgot about it. I have been busy with so many things recently that I haven't had time to think about it."
"Why don't you go back and wait for news? I'll have someone bring you a message once I've considered it. There's no need to rush this matter anyway."
This matter was rather difficult for him to handle. If this precedent was set, other officials whose relatives or friends were exiled would probably also make this request.
This was clearly a perfunctory response, and Jiang Mengli could see through it.
If I go back and wait, how would I know how long I would have to wait?
After a moment of contemplation, she smiled faintly and said, "Your Majesty, I know this is very difficult for you. I don't have to call them father and mother. It's also fine to call them cousins and uncles."
"Your Majesty, I will take my leave and go home to await your good news."
He knelt and nodded as a gesture of withdrawal, then left the imperial study.
After she left, the emperor felt relieved.
Eunuch Fu closed the door to the imperial study and walked behind the emperor to rub his temples. "Your Majesty, don't worry. What she just said is a solution that will satisfy both parties."
"Jiang Dingshan and his men have been gone for many years, and many people's impression of them has faded. Many old officials in the court have also retired and returned to their hometowns."
The emperor nodded upon hearing this and said, "I will make a decision after discussing it with the queen."
At night, the emperor came to the queen's bedroom in person, which was a rare occasion.
When the queen heard the news, she hurriedly put on her coat and went to greet the emperor.
"No need to be so polite. I'm here just to chat with the Queen." The Emperor interrupted the Queen's greeting and gave her a light support.
After the two entered the house, they immediately dismissed all the servants.
Soon they were the only two left in the room, and the atmosphere became a little awkward and strange.
Seeing his frown, the Queen asked, "Your Majesty, have you encountered any difficulties? Please tell me what it is. Even if I can't help, I can still listen."
The emperor took a sip of his calming tea and said, "Last time I mentioned it to you, it was about Jiang Dingshan. Jiang Mengli came again today."
"Now I just don't know what to do. Logically speaking, Jiang Dingshan can indeed come back, but I still have to consider other ministers."
"Jiang Mengli's intention today is to change her parents' identities, but there are always people in the capital who know them. How can they keep it a secret?"
Even if your identity is concealed now, it will be revealed one day.
There will be some troubles then.
After hearing this, the Queen pondered for a moment and then said, "Your Majesty, let Jiang Mengli raise this issue openly in the court."
"Didn't she say she would exchange it for the Golden Medal of Immunity? I think this is fair. Jiang Mengli has made a great contribution this time."
"If she were a man, she would definitely be given a high official position. Filial piety is the most important virtue. It's not unreasonable for her to use this achievement to bring her parents back."
When the emperor heard this, his brows gradually relaxed.
If we resolve this matter openly and honestly, there will be no trouble later.
"The Queen is polite." He finally smiled. "It's getting late. Go to bed early."
……
The Jiang Mansion was brightly lit and decorated in a festive manner.
Jiang Mengli cooked a lot of delicious dishes herself.
Jiang looked at the table full of delicious dishes and smiled happily, "A-Li's cooking skills are getting better and better. The food looks delicious and the aroma is so good."
"Then start eating, it will get cold soon." Jiang Mengli smiled and put the food into her bowl, "This preserved vegetable braised pork is especially delicious, not greasy at all."
Suddenly, I saw a box next to me.
She asked curiously, "Grandma, what's in that box?"
Jiang took a look and said with a faint smile, "It was sent by Yu. I don't know what it is. We haven't announced the move yet. I don't know how he knew about it."
Jiang Mengli stood up and walked over, slowly opening the box.
Soon a jade Guanyin was revealed, the whole body was shiny and lustrous, and the jade pendant was very nice.
Everyone present cried out in surprise.
This jade Guanyin looks valuable and is very rare.
"This jade Guanyin is really huge. Isn't it priceless?"
"How can it be so exaggerated? But this is also the first time I have seen such a large jade Guanyin."
While they were whispering, Jiang Mengli took out a small flashlight and shone it on the Jade Guanyin.
I found that the quality of this jade is indeed good. Such a large piece of jade does not have a single line on it.
Jiang Mengli smiled with great satisfaction and said, "He's very kind. This gift is quite good."
"Come here, place this Jade Guanyin in the old lady's courtyard and remember to place tributes on it."
After the two servants respectfully agreed, they lifted the entire box and headed towards the courtyard where Jiang lived.
When Jiang Mengli returned to the table, a servant suddenly announced that His Royal Highness Prince Yu had come to visit.
Before she could speak, the man had already reached the door.
Everyone's smiles froze and they quickly stood up and saluted.
"Meet His Royal Highness Prince Yu."
Wen Mohan walked into the room with a smile, "No need for formalities, it's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. I am lucky enough to have a good meal tonight, and I just happened to skip dinner."
He was very rude and sat next to Jiang Mengli.
He smiled gently and nodded to Jiang, "Grandma."
Jiang just smiled stiffly and immediately ordered the servants to prepare the dishes and chopsticks.
He Yu, A Gan, Ling Qiao and Liu Ma all got up and left tactfully.
With their status, they simply cannot dine at the same table with Wen Mohan.
Jiang ordered Liu Ma, "You and the other servants should go to another table. The food tonight is the same."
After nodding respectfully, they left the dining hall.
Jiang Mengli rolled her eyes at the man and said, "Why are you so rude? I didn't even ask you to have dinner with me."
Wen Mohan pretended to be confused, "Didn't you say that? But I clearly heard you say that you didn't have dinner, so we sat down and had it together."
