Chapter 1136 Impeachment
When Jiang Shangshu wanted to send Nu'er to the Xiao family, the eldest wife of the Jiang family wailed, "My Nu'er..." and she fainted.
After she was sent back to the room by the housekeeper and the maid, she was put under house arrest by the Jiang family and was not allowed to leave the room.
In the evening, the still-unconscious Jiang Nuer was dressed up by her mother, who specially helped her put on a pink dress. Then, before dinner, she was stuffed into a carriage.
Even if a man from the Great Sheng Kingdom marries a concubine, it is not as lively and bustling as marrying his first wife, but there are still some necessary processes that must be gone through.
But the people from the Jiang family deliberately sent people to the Xiao family secretly in the evening, obviously not wanting anyone to know about it for fear of embarrassment.
After all, Jiang Shangshu is the Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment of the Great Sheng Kingdom and a first-rank minister. He sent his thirteen-year-old granddaughter to be a concubine for the forty-year-old Xiao Guozhang. This matter is embarrassing, even if it is deceiving oneself and deceiving others. Jiang Shangshu didn't want to be upright, so he married his granddaughter to the Xiao family, which was known to the world.
……
When Jiang Nuer entered the Xiao family, one could imagine how she would be treated by Xiao Guozhang.
Xiao Wei is the only legitimate son of Xiao Guozhang. Even if he is useless, the blood of Xiao Wei is still the blood of Xiao Guozhang, but he died in the hands of the eldest young master of the Jiang family. Moreover, because of Xiao Wei's death, his legitimate son My wife is also crazy.
Therefore, one can imagine how much Xiao Guozhang hates the Jiang family.
On the first night Jiang Nuer entered the house, Xiao Guozhang ignored her tender body of only thirteen years old and pressed her hard the whole night, making him wet with pleasure.
And Jiang Nuer, because she was implicated by her brother, fell from heaven to hell overnight. Throughout the night, she fainted from the pain several times.
However, Xiao Guozhang showed no pity at all. He didn't let her go until she was almost dead.
Xiao Guozhang looked at her sobbing coldly and snorted, "Remember, this is what your Jiang family owes me. You must pay it back properly in the future."
However, she was his concubine after all. Seeing the young girl crying pitifully and touchingly, Xiao Guozhang still felt a little pity in his heart. He called the maid to come in and wait on her. After washing, he hugged her and fell asleep. .
From then on, Xiao Guozhang seemed to have found a source of venting his anger. He would press Jiang Nuer hard several times every night. The pain would make her faint every time, only to be woken up by him again.
Jiang Nuer felt like she was living in hell every day. In addition to being pressed, she was in pain. Moreover, Xiao Guozhang would not let her leave the room and completely placed her under house arrest.
It wasn't until the Xiao family was deprived of their title by an imperial edict from the emperor, the father-in-law of Xiao was imprisoned, and all the female family members of the Xiao family were exiled for two thousand miles, that Jiang Nuer came out of hell and lived a life that was miserable but made her feel happy. .
……
"Second Prince, the granddaughter of the Jiang family was sent to the Xiao family yesterday evening."
When Chu Xuanyu got the news, he hurriedly reported it.
The second prince sneered, put down the memorial he was approving, and said, "Jiang Daoren is in a hurry. I thought he could last another three or four days."
"After all, a life was lost, and he was the direct grandson of Prince Xiao. Jiang Daoren was scared, otherwise, he would not have succumbed to Prince Xiao."
Kill people to pay for their lives, and pay your debts for money.
The reason why Jiang Shangshu was so anxious to send people to the Xiao family was that he was afraid that the Xiao family would not let him go and would arrest his grandson to pay for his life. The second reason was that he was afraid that being impeached by the censor would affect his official position and let the Jiang family leave. downhill.
Jiang Shangshu wants to sacrifice a granddaughter and settle the matter, but it depends on whether they are willing. Chu Xuanyu smiled like a fox and said, "I have given the order. A memorial to impeach Jiang Daoren will be presented tomorrow, as well as some of the things Jiang Daoren has done secretly behind your back over the years."
"Okay." The second prince was happy, shouted, and said gratefully, "I've been lucky to you these past few days. If it weren't for your layout, I'm afraid the Jiang family and the Xiao family wouldn't be here today."

Originally, Chu Xuanyu and Ding You were at home, playing chess with their daughter-in-law, chatting, playing sports, and teaching martial arts to their two precious grandchildren. They were living a leisurely and comfortable life every day. However, the second prince called him to help, which made him feel miserable these days. I don't have time to spend time with Mr. Zhuo, and I really miss my wife.
However, with the second prince's words of "good luck", Chu Xuanyu suddenly felt that the good fortune was worth it.
Chu Xuanyu said politely and solemnly, "It is an honor for me as a minister to be able to relieve the worries of the Emperor and the Second Prince."
The next day, the memorial to impeach Jiang Daoren flew into the palace like snowflakes, piling up half the desk.
The Second Prince sat at the desk, flipping through the books one by one. When he saw the tenth book, his face became extremely dark.
He angrily threw the memorial he had just read on the ground and shouted angrily, "Come here, bring Jiang Daoren, I want to see him."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Eunuch Li responded quickly as he came in.
"Wait a minute." The second prince suddenly stopped Eunuch Li again and ordered, "Forget it, I don't want to see him today. Please inform him and we will meet him early tomorrow morning."
"Morning court?" Eunuch Li was stunned, "Where is the emperor?"
On that day, the second prince had promised Prince Xiao to make an early court appearance, but because of the emperor, he canceled it. The second prince was worried about the emperor.
But the second prince now said that he would go to court early. Did he hear it correctly?
The second prince calmed down again and told Eunuch Li carefully, "Your Majesty, please go to Prince An's Mansion in person and ask Prince An to come over tomorrow morning. With him by your side, I will feel relieved."
< br>
Eunuch Li hurriedly responded, "I obey the order."
At noon, Jiang Daoren learned from a close colleague that nearly half of the civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty were impeaching him. Jiang Daoren was shocked when he heard that, his face turned pale and his whole person was shaking.
After he calmed down, he quickly tidied up and hurried into the palace to see the second prince.
At that time, it was just after lunch, when the emperor's illness broke out. The second prince was guarding the emperor. He didn't want to see him, so he ordered the young father-in-law to send him away.
Jiang Daoren couldn't enter the palace, he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, his face turned red.
Eunuch Li came back from Prince Anjun's Mansion. When the carriage reached the gate of the palace, he was seen by the sharp-eyed Jiang Daoren.
As if Jiang Daoren had found a treasure, he would not let go of Eunuch Li.
Eunuch Li couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Jiang Shangshu, please come back. Today, the second prince is very angry. At this time, Jiang Shangshu goes to see the second prince, but he can't get anything good. It's better to go back early and prepare for the morning court tomorrow." Let’s do it.”
"Tomorrow morning?" Jiang Daoren was stunned for a moment, and then became anxious and uneasy, "Is the emperor's illness cured?"
