The loyal servant took the slave and hid from place to place. Feeling that something was wrong, he brought the slave to the capital to seek help from Xie Yun.
But when we arrived in the capital, we learned that my sister had died suddenly in childbirth not long ago, leaving behind only two young sons."
When Luo Zheng finished speaking, his eyes were as red as if he had put on rouge, which contrasted with his overly fair skin, making people feel cold.
"So, Xie Xiu is your nephew?" Concubine Jiang frowned. "You suspect that the deaths of your parents and your sister are related to Xie Yun and Chen Fang?"
Luo Zheng's face was filled with strong hatred, but his tone was very calm: "Not long after my parents got into trouble, many of our family's land and shops were quickly sold at low prices, and the remaining ones fell into Xie Yun's hands.
Originally, I only suspected that he had deliberately killed my sister in order to climb up the social ladder. But this time when Xie Xiu came to Beijing, someone unexpectedly colluded with bandits and wanted to kill him and his family!
"I cannot help but suspect that my parents' deaths were also deliberately planned by someone, using the hands of thieves to steal their wealth and kill them!"
"You suspect the Chen family? Do you have any evidence?" Concubine Jiang was slightly surprised and warned solemnly, "The Chen family is a powerful family, they have always kept a low profile, and they are very prestigious. If you don't have solid evidence, you must not provoke them!"
Empress Chen once blocked a sword for Emperor Taihe and lost her fertility as a result.
Even though Emperor Taihe had no feelings for her originally, he had a little more respect for her because of this incident.
Moreover, Empress Chen had always been law-abiding and never deliberately made trouble for her because Emperor Taihe favored her. Instead, she treated her with great generosity and courtesy.
Even though Concubine Jiang was dissatisfied with the other party occupying the throne, she was also somewhat ashamed of Empress Chen's attitude, so she did not want to make things difficult for her.
Moreover, the Chen family was very good at dealing with people and had a great reputation. Even though she was deeply favored by Emperor Taihe, she did not dare to easily become an enemy of the Chen family.
Luo Zheng is her man, and she doesn't want him to rashly attack the Chen family for revenge and cause her big trouble!
"I do suspect the Chen family, but I have never had any evidence. That's why I have only been able to hide my hatred in my heart over the years and have not dared to take revenge rashly."
Luo Zheng lowered his head even lower, his posture extremely submissive, "But this time someone attacked Xie Xiu, and I have already captured that person for interrogation.
Although he hasn't given Chen Fang away, nor has he admitted to attacking Xie Xiu, I believe that given time, I can get him to confess."
Concubine Jiang was surprised for a moment, then shook her head: "Even if he confessed Chen Fang, this alone would not bring down the Chen family."
As she spoke, she placed her hand on Luo Zheng's shoulder, "Luo Zheng, I know you want revenge. But I hope you won't lose your mind because of hatred, because a momentary impulse will bring you disaster!
The Queen saved His Majesty and has done me a great favor. If you want revenge, you can deal with Chen Fang, but you can't touch the Chen family, understand?"
"I understand." Luo Zheng bowed deeply. "Your Majesty has saved my life and helped me. Even if I were to die, I would never dare to cause trouble for you."
Imperial Concubine Jiang sighed, "Why do you have to do this? I don't want you to lose your life in vain. Since Xie Xiu is your nephew, you should go meet him when he returns to the capital."
"Your Majesty, I thank you for your grace." Luo Zheng thanked him gratefully, but then said sarcastically, "Xie Xiu has Xie Yun's blood in his veins, and I haven't seen him in years, so I don't think I can trust him. I just think that if I want to deal with Xie Yun and Chen Fang, Xie Xiu would be a very good chess piece."
Concubine Jiang's expression changed, and her gaze towards Luo Zheng became darker. "He is your nephew after all. Do you really want to use him as a pawn to deal with Xie Yun and Chen Fang? Isn't that a bit too cruel?"
Luo Zheng was silent for a moment before he said, "If he still remembers his biological mother and is willing to avenge her, I will naturally be willing to acknowledge him as my nephew and take better care of him in the future.
