Chapter 4: Remarriage
"The imperial doctor."
The imperial doctor who followed quickly stepped forward to check the injury. Not long after, he respectfully replied: "Your Majesty, Miss Yan has serious external injuries and is weak. Fortunately, her life is not in danger."
Emperor Zhaocheng didn't say anything, picked up Yan Li himself, turned around and walked out.
The Jiang family was still kneeling outside. Emperor Zhaocheng stepped out of the threshold and stared at Taifu Jiang with a cold gaze: "The two people I granted marriage to are Prince Xiuhan and Yan Li. Do you think Taifu still remembers them?"
Taifu Jiang lowered his head and said in a somewhat unsteady voice, "I remember."
"I heard that Yan Li had an affair with a man." Emperor Zhaocheng's voice was a little colder, "Is this true?"
Jiang Yunming's expression changed.
"Back to the emperor, this matter is true." Luo Shi raised his head and spoke impatiently, as if he was eager to prove Yan Li's crime, "I saw it with my own eyes——"
Emperor Zhaocheng's cold eyes shot at her, like a sharp knife piercing his heart: "Have I asked you?"
Luo Shi froze and knelt hurriedly to plead guilty: "My wife deserves to die! My wife should not interrupt without authorization. I beg the Emperor to forgive me."
"Taifu." The emperor's gaze fell on Taifu Jiang's head, "Tell me, is this true or false?"
A chill suddenly came over Jiang Taifu's heart. At this moment, he realized that he might have done something wrong. The emperor had never forgotten Yan Li. He had ignored her for many years because he didn't want to disturb her peaceful life, but it was not true indifference.
Does he admit or deny it now?
Since the emperor came in person, he must be asking for an explanation from Yan Li. If he said that he had wronged Yan Li, how could he, the great master, have the face to face the emperor in the future?
But if he admits it, if he admits it, will the emperor really believe him?
"minister……"
"It is said that a man who commits adultery makes a couple. I really want to know who the man who had an affair with Yan Li is." Emperor Zhaocheng quickly asked another question, his tone was as calm as a sign of the coming storm, "Jiang Yunming, where is that man?" ?”
Jiang Yunming's face turned pale: "I...I don't know, that person escaped..."
"Escaped?" Emperor Zhaocheng seemed to smile, but his smile was cold and sarcastic, "You want to tell me that the Grand Tutor's Mansion not only allowed Xiaoxiao to sneak in at will, but also made people treat the house as if they were in an uninhabited land. My cousin cheated on me, and after something happened, how could you still let him get away with it?”
Jiang Yunming was speechless: "Your Majesty..."
"Are all the guards in the mansion dead?!" Emperor Zhaocheng's voice suddenly rose, his tone stern and angry, "Or are you so cowardly that you can only bully a weak girl?"
"I know the crime!" Taifu Jiang kowtowed quickly, "I have no way to manage my family and teach my children well. I should not allow Yun Ming to convict Yan Li indiscriminately. I should believe her. I am stupid. Please punish me!"
Jiang Jingyue knelt on the ground in fear, her face was pale, and she was trembling with fear, but she couldn't help but feel resentment and unwillingness in her heart.
Why does the emperor protect Yan Li so much? What is his relationship with Yan Li? Why did the emperor protect a little orphan girl like this?
Emperor Zhaocheng gently closed his eyes, suppressing the overwhelming anger in his chest, and said in a cold voice: "Since the Jiang family wants to marry their granddaughter to the prince, then I will grant it to you! From now on, Jiang Jingyue will marry the prince. Tomorrow Get married."
After saying these words, he hugged Yan Li and walked away, completely ignoring the reactions of the Jiang family members behind him after hearing these words.
"The emperor gave Jingyue a marriage to the prince?" Luo Shi turned to look at her husband in disbelief, and then was surprised and happy, "I...did I hear it right? Is this true? It's just that the marriage will be completed tomorrow. Isn’t it too late? There’s no time to prepare…”
"Mother, it doesn't matter." Jiang Jingyue said quickly, with a happy expression on her face, "As long as I can marry the prince, there is no harm in rushing."
Mrs. Jiang stood up stiffly, turned his head, and looked at Luo Shi and his granddaughter expressionlessly, his eyes extremely calm.
Luo Shi froze: "Dad, what...what happened?"
Jiang Jingyue was also a little uneasy: "Is grandfather unhappy?"
Happy?
He smiled coldly: "Do you really think this is grace?"
"It's not grace?" Luo Shi was stunned, "No... Anyway, when Jingyue marries the prince, she becomes the crown princess..."
Mrs. Jiang turned and left without saying a word.
Jiang Jingyue frowned and looked at his back in fear. Her grandfather didn't look happy, but what her mother said was true. The emperor did give her to the prince. She will be the princess from now on. When the prince ascends the throne, she will be superior. The queen, the noble mother of a country...
Thinking of this, Jiang Jingyue couldn't help brushing away the vague uneasiness in her heart, and the corners of her mouth slowly raised a proud arc.
Yan Li, what if the emperor protects you? Isn’t the position of Crown Princess still mine in the end? Do you really think you can reach the sky in one step?
She lived in the Jiang family and grew up in the Jiang family. Her status was obviously much lower than that of her granddaughter. Why should she marry the prince over her?
Since she is an orphan living in someone else's care, she should be more conscious, kneel at her feet and beg her for some grace, instead of stepping over her to become a princess.
The identity of the Crown Princess must belong to her, Yan Li couldn't even think about it!
