The imperial concubine is charming and charming, and only seeks power and wealth
Chapter 97 His Majesty the Emperor: She Doesn’t Care
Of course Jiang Lingyue didn’t know.
Qi Junyi didn't want her to answer. He said directly, "It's different from now. In your previous life, you were already deeply poisoned. The antidote for the Immortal Drunk requires 'Hundred-Year Qingqian Grass' and the medicinal lead 'Blood Spirit Ginseng'."
"The Hundred-Year-Old Qingqian Grass was used up two years ago. The next one won't mature for another three years. And the Blood Spirit Ginseng..."
Bringing up the past again, the remaining murderous intent still seethed. He paused, took a deep breath, and asked her, "Did you hear what Shen said that day in the prison?"
"I heard it," Jiang Lingyue keenly sensed his emotions and answered without hesitation: "She said that the last blood spirit ginseng in the world was her dowry."
Thinking of Jiang Lingxin's entry into the palace, she frowned tightly, "Did they threaten you?"
Use the blood ginseng to threaten the current emperor and take Jiang Lingxin into the palace?
This is too ridiculous.
Do you think there are too many people in your family tree and they are not dying fast enough?
Even if the courage of the hundreds of people in the Jiang and Shen families were combined, they probably wouldn't dare to do such a thing, right?
She was puzzled when she heard the man beside her say calmly, "They want me to be cautious."
"The Blood Spirit Ginseng is in the hands of the Shen family. This medicine can replenish vital energy. After the poison of your Immortal Drunkenness is removed, you need to nourish your Qi and blood to avoid damaging your lifespan."
"The result of your father and brothers' discussion was to have your sister take this medicine."
Qi Junyi said, "She is still unmarried and in good health. Her vitality is intact. The medicinal effects of the Blood Spirit Ginseng are stored in her body. If I want to save you, I need her."
With the wisdom of the Jiang family father and son, they could only come up with such a bad plan in a short period of time.
They wanted to make him cautious.
He wanted to use this to protect the Shen and Jiang families and the Shen family.
It's so stupid it's laughable.
But when Qi Junyi learned the truth, he hated their stupidity.
If they had been smarter, things wouldn't have come to that.
As long as the blood ginseng is still there, he might be able to show mercy and spare them because they are her blood relatives.
He could have just taken Shen's life.
But the Shen family is seeking death.
The Jiang family also followed suit and sought death.
They were seeking their own death, but Qi Junyi still had to take into consideration that his little girl also had the surname Jiang, and he could not massacre the Jiang family like he did to the Shen family.
In the end, they endured and endured, gritting their teeth and banishing them to the lowest level where they could just turn a blind eye.
In the previous life, the three members of the Jiang family died or were injured.
Although it was not his instruction, the source was indeed with him.
If he hadn't repeatedly demoted the Jiang family father and son, letting everyone know that the little girl was favored, but the Jiang family was not favored by the emperor.
Those who were jealous of her favor would, if they could not murder her, target her relatives.
Jiang Shao was depressed and died after falling into the water while drunk. It was not a real accident.
The second son of the Jiang family was also maliciously instigated to go directly to the ring to fight against foreigners. She watched with her own eyes as her second brother was killed by a shattered heart.
As if the blow to her was not enough, the only remaining eldest son of the Jiang family was shot by a hidden arrow after the death of his father and younger brother, and became lame.
Qi Junyi always believed that it was these three things that made her heart towards him, which was not warm to begin with, completely cool down.
Let their conflicts grow and they drift further and further apart.
But both the Shen family and the Jiang family deserve to die.
He was so murderous at that time that he restrained himself from killing the entire Jiang family, which showed that he was very considerate of her feelings.
The Jiang family never treated her well, and allowed Shen to bully her. Even after knowing what Shen had done, they still helped cover it up.
Those who did these things were all the little girl's blood relatives.
The family love that she had always longed for dealt her a fatal blow.
At that time, she was bedridden. How could Qi Junyi bear to tell her the truth and make her sad, but he really couldn't forgive the Jiang family.
No matter what, he had to teach the Jiang family a lesson.
But in the end, he only demoted Jiang Shao's official position and did not make things too difficult for him.
The Jiang family ended up like that entirely because of their own uselessness.
If any one of the three father and son was smart enough to protect himself, the Jiang family would not have fallen into such decline so quickly.
Now, he chose to tell her everything honestly and let her decide the fate of the Jiang family.
He only hoped that she would put aside the past grudges and forget the estrangement that indirectly caused the tragic deaths of her father and brother in her previous life.
Jiang Lingyue here had no idea what the people around her were thinking. She was just shocked when she suddenly learned that the Blood Spirit Ginseng in her previous life was taken by Jiang Lingxin.
But soon, I thought that if this was the case, then it made sense.
In fact, in this life, Jiang Lingxin was sent to entertain the troops, and she was sure that the Emperor had some true feelings for her.
I thought that there was probably some hidden story behind Jiang Lingxin's entry into the palace in her previous life.
He didn't really have any intentions towards her sister, but had other reasons for taking her into his harem.
Just now, Jiang Lingyue even thought that maybe Shen was so bold as to use the blood ginseng to threaten the emperor to let his daughter enter the palace.
I just wonder, this will do nothing but stir up the emperor's murderous intent.
Once the Blood Spirit Ginseng is obtained, Jiang Lingxin's life or death will be decided by just one word, right?
It turned out that he actually took the Blood Ginseng directly.
…So, what does this have to do with him taking people into his harem?
Jiang Lingyue was puzzled.
She frowned, looking very embarrassed, and Qi Junyi saw it all.
He thought she was grieving over what the Jiang family father and son had done. Although he was filled with murderous intent, according to his opinion, the three of them should be cut into pieces.
But at this moment, he softened his expression and said gently, "Your father and brother didn't do this solely to protect the Shen family. The bigger reason they did this was that they were worried that the Jiang family would be implicated if the matter was exposed."
Murdering the imperial concubine is a serious crime punishable by the death of nine generations of the family.
And they also knew that the eldest daughter was not close to the family.
Once something happens, the chances of pleading for them are slim.
It’s better to save yourself.
Unfortunately, they are so stupid that even the methods they use to save themselves can only push themselves into an irretrievable disaster.
However, he was right.
Although Jiang Shao valued Shen, his later-married wife, compared with the family's future and his own safety, Shen was not worth the risk.
Qi Junyi wanted to use these words to comfort the girl in his arms, letting her know that she was not abandoned by her father and brother because of the Shen family.
Her father and brother made the stupid move because they were worried about the family's future and their own safety, not because they completely disregarded her life.
She was not a poor little thing who was hurt without hesitation by her blood relatives.
Moreover, in this life, they still don’t know the inside story.
They were even kept in the dark about the drunken gods.
She didn't need to feel embarrassed. If she wanted to let them go, she could do so.
Not being soft-hearted.
But the girl in his arms seemed not to hear his clumsy comfort, and just looked at him deeply with her eyes.
The look was calm and peaceful.
Qi Junyi saw that she was telling him that she didn't really care about the thing he had gone to so much trouble to explain.
At least, not the one I care about most...
