Counting the time, Jin Xin will take her younger brother and mother to the Peace Palace at a later date.
However, at this time, a palace servant hurriedly came in and said, "Your Majesty, please go to Banyuexuan as soon as possible. Something happened to the father-in-law."
When Jin Xin heard this, she immediately had a bad premonition, "What happened?"
"The father-in-law drank too much during the banquet. When the palace servants took him to rest, he went crazy because of the drunkenness. He grabbed the wife of Lieutenant Zhongwu who was resting and wouldn't let go. He also treated her lightly and frightened her so much that she lost her footing and fell into the water. , The emperor has asked you to come over." The palace man reported back.
After hearing this, Jin Xin felt dizzy and almost stopped standing. Cui Gu and Lian Rong quickly grabbed her to stabilize her figure.
The Anshi next to her was not so well. After hearing this, she was so stimulated that she fell to the ground.
Captain Zhongwu's wife is Concubine Xuan's sister-in-law, and General Pei is currently on the front lines fighting the rebellion. She was invited to the palace for the banquet. She has only been married for a year and is still pregnant with a child.
After Jin Xin stabilized her body, she looked at the palace servant and asked, "How is Mrs. Pei?"
"He was rescued, but the child... was not saved."
Jin Xin's vision went dark again. Concubine Xuan's father died in battle years ago. After that, General Pei was ordered to face the danger. Together with Gu Zhao, he issued a military order and led the army to the battlefield. General Pei was on the front line and his life was in danger at any time. This child, however, was a direct descendant. The only bloodline.
"Why would he harm people like this!" Jin Xin was so angry that his stomach hurt. Everyone panicked and hurriedly supported Jin Xin.
"Empress, don't be angry, you will hurt the dragon fetus." Lianrong hurriedly advised.
Jin Xin didn't want to stabilize herself, but when she thought about her father causing such a disaster in the palace, Concubine Xuan must hate her to death, and those old ministers would take advantage of the opportunity to pull her down.
Cuigu woke Anshi up at this time. The first thing she did when she woke up was to hold Jinxin's hand and said, "My child, I've got you involved, I'm going to kill him!"
After saying that, Anshi really got up to go out, but Jin Xin scolded her, "Mother, nothing you do now will help. Go and check the situation before talking."
Anshi also hated it, how could Jiang Tiancheng do such a thing.
Jin Xin stabilized her mentality and could only go to Banyuexuan.
The emperor was sitting on the throne, looking at the father and son kneeling on the ground with a cold face. Jiang Tiancheng had sobered up and knew that he had made a big mistake. Jiang Quwu was kneeling on the ground helplessly, with a complex and resentful expression.
He just disappeared for half an hour, but Jiang Tiancheng did such a thing. He really wanted to hang out with his eyes. He only left for half an hour, and such a big thing happened.
When the incident reached his side, Jiang Quwu couldn't even believe it. When he saw Mrs. Pei being rescued for the first time, he was told by the imperial doctor that the child was not kept. He wanted to kill the father.
Jin Xin hurried over at this time and looked at the people kneeling on the ground. The emperor's face was cold. Jin Xin did not speak and did not know what to say.
"Concubine De, this matter is really bad, I have to deal with it strictly." The emperor said coldly.
Jin Xin closed her eyes in despair, and then knelt down, "I am unable to restrain my family, so I leave it to the emperor's disposal."
"Your Majesty, it's my fault and it has nothing to do with the imperial concubine. Don't blame the imperial concubine for this matter. How to deal with it, I will all accept it." Jiang Quwu hurriedly stepped forward and said.
How could she not know that Jiang Quwu wanted to escape and protect himself.
Jin Xin gritted her teeth. Jiang Quwu was currently discussing a marriage with the daughter of the left prime minister. If this matter was not handled properly, the marriage might be ruined.
For the sake of Jiang Tiancheng, it is completely uneconomical to compromise the future of the Jiang family and choke off the rise of the Jiang family.
"Your Majesty, I would like to meet Mrs. Pei. I wonder if it is possible..."
Before Jin Xin finished her words, Concubine Xuan walked out and interrupted coldly, "The imperial concubine is favored by the Sixth Palace. If you are allowed to meet my concubine's sister-in-law, she will definitely have to compromise. Although the imperial concubine is deeply loved by the emperor, we The Pei family's attitude towards this matter will never be forgiven and must be dealt with severely."
Jin Xin was a little anxious after hearing this. She wanted to make peace with Concubine Xuan. It didn't matter how she dealt with it. She didn't want to be an enemy of Concubine Xuan.
Jiang Tiancheng, who was kneeling on the ground, did not dare to speak. He was still a little demented. He knew that he had made a big mistake and did not dare to argue. But he really didn't know what was going on at the time.
At that time, he thought she was his aunt in the palace, drank some wine, and for some reason, he followed a palace maid to that place, and then his eyes were blurred, so he did something wrong and was splashed by someone. After drinking a cup of tea, he woke up, but it was already too late.
Jin Xin looked at Jiang Tiancheng and said angrily, "I feel so ashamed to have a father like you."
When Jiang Tiancheng heard this, he immediately understood that Jin Xin was giving up on protecting himself. He panicked because he didn't want to die.
He quickly kowtowed, "Your Majesty, I really don't know what happened. A palace maid led me here. I was drunk and saw the wrong person. Then... then..."
Looking at the emperor's cold eyes, Jiang Tiancheng was flustered and did not dare to continue speaking. Then he looked at Jin Xin and said, "Your Majesty, I really didn't mean it."
When Jin Xin heard this, she immediately felt something was wrong. She also thought that she might be jealous of someone and used her father against her again. She immediately turned to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, please find out about this matter. Find the palace maid and ask her. Official family members Foreign men are not allowed to enter the resting place without permission. If there is no one to guide him, how can he enter the resting place of the official family? Someone must have framed him."
The emperor looked tangled and a little embarrassed. On the one hand, he was thinking about Jin Xin's embarrassment, but on the other hand, he would not tolerate the matter. Otherwise, how could General Pei, who was working hard outside, go to the battle with all his heart.
Upon seeing this, Concubine Xuan knelt on the ground and kowtowed vigorously, "Your Majesty, my nephew is gone. This is a fact. No matter what the truth is, I need an explanation from the Emperor. Otherwise, I will be devastated." Heart."
"Your Majesty, you can deal with it any way you want, but please find out the truth and then convict this matter." Jin Xin looked at the Emperor with pleading eyes.
Jiang Tiancheng's death is not a pity and can be dealt with in any way. But if we don't find out what happened, Jiang Tiancheng will die, Jin Xin and Jiang Quwu will be implicated, his marriage will change, and he will be scolded by the courtiers. People in the world will despise themselves.
"Your Majesty! I must have justice!" Concubine Xuan said with a powerful expression.
Jin Xin knew that if the matter was dealt with on the spot and found out later, the effect would be greatly reduced, so she immediately scolded Jiang Tiancheng, "Father, do you want to see my brother and I being implicated by you, and follow you to suffer the consequences of the world?" Are you despising it?"
Jiang Tiancheng was so cowardly that he didn't dare to raise his head or face this matter. He just said, "I really don't know what's going on. That little palace maid is so angry that I don't remember what she looks like."
Jin Xin was even more desperate when she heard this. Who on earth wanted to put such a big bargaining chip against them, Concubine Xuan?
She wouldn't want to harm her own nephew like this. Besides, they have no grudge. Who is that little palace maid?
"Your Majesty, Mrs. Pei woke up and learned that the child was gone. She wanted to hit the pillar." The maid came to report.
