Empress can't eat enough

Chapter 59
When Jiang Zhaoer, the sixth wife of the Jiang family, came in, Li Mu saw her.

"Who is that?" He asked Wynn.

"Like the famous wild girl from the Shangshu family of the Ministry of War, Mrs. Jiang Liu?" Huai En is very grateful for his ability in this area. He can always match up with famous people in the capital.

"What is she here for?" Li Mu asked again, "She also has friendship with the princess?"

"This..." Wynn didn't know.

But since it was something the master wanted to know, he naturally wanted to find out.

Jiang Zhaoer soon came to Qionghua Garden.

Busy and dusty, she didn't have the heart to appreciate the scenery of Qionghua Garden, and as soon as she entered the door, she rushed to Wei Yingning, tears streaming from her eyes, and begged: "Sister Wei... No, my lord! My lord, please save my brother!"

"What's wrong with your brother? What happened?" Seeing her appearance, Wei Yingning couldn't help feeling worried, "I came out of the palace before my head and met your brother."

Jiang Zhaoer's tears streamed down, and he cried: "Brother, he entered the palace with General Zhou of the Chinese Army to face the saint, and demonstrated to the saint the new firearm, the blunderbuss, which was released by the Shenji camp. When a little eunuch presented the bird gun to the saint, the bird gun exploded! The little eunuch had a big hole in his chest and died on the spot...the saint was furious!"

"The general Zhou of the Chinese army put all the responsibility on my brother, and falsely accused my brother of being rebellious and disobedient on weekdays. He had a heart of disobedience, and his guns exploded. He may have deliberately murdered the saint... The saint detained my brother on the spot and sent The guards in the palace were arrested, my family was surrounded, and my father was also taken to the palace for questioning..."

"I was just afraid that someone was going to harm our Jiang family, so I got out of the dog's hole... I really can't do anything... Madam Wangfei, can you help us? Father is usually an upright official and not good at making friends. At this time ...I don't know who to turn to except you..."

Jiang Zhaoer pulled Wei Yingning's sleeve, her watery eyes were full of expectations.

"This matter is very important, don't be in a hurry." Wei Yingning helped her sit down, let him drink some tea first, and asked her: "Sister, do you know where the Zhongjun is now?"

"I'm also imprisoned together..." Jiang Zhao'er thought for a while and said, "Brother said when he first arrived at Ren Shenji Camp that this General Zhou seems to be honest and treats everyone like a brother, but in fact he has a lot of tricks. Now that something happened, my brother will be blamed for it! It really is not a good match..."

"The explosion of the blunderbuss may have been an accident, and the blame is all on your brother. He is considered a villain, but why did he add fuel to the fire? It is deliberate regicide by biting your brother?" Wei Yingning thought about it. Zhou Zhongjun had a huge problem.

Killing the king is tantamount to treason, and it is to punish the nine clans.And if it was intentionally bitten, it was not an accident that the gun exploded, but someone did something in advance.

Thinking so, Wei Yingning said to Jiang Zhao'er: "Sister Zhao'er, the saint lost his life this time, and he will not settle the case hastily. My father should enter the palace and take orders at this moment. So don't be afraid, don't worry, my father There has never been an unjust case in a case that has been broken for more than ten or twenty years. This time, it will definitely clear up your brother's grievances and return your Jiang family's innocence."

Jiang Zhaoer nodded repeatedly, wiped away tears and said, "Yes, Master Wei will definitely find out the facts and return my brother's innocence."

"Stay here with me, we can discuss anything." Wei Yingning said.

"But I don't worry about mother..."

"It won't be easy for you to figure it out again when you go back." Wei Yingning persuaded, "You can still pass the news back when you are outside, and your mother can rest assured."

After hearing this, Jiang Zhaoer agreed.

Wei Yingning immediately told Nanny Wei: "Take Mrs. Jiang Liu to rest in the attic at the back, and then let two maids take care of you, and make proper arrangements for food, clothing, housing and transportation."

After Jiang Zhaoer went back with Wei Nanny, Wei Yingning immediately told Ah Man: "Go and invite Your Highness to come here."

The matter is of great importance, and she cannot resist it alone.Besides, in the palace, even if she wanted to deal with this matter alone, it was inevitable that Li Mu would know.

Li Mu came over soon.

On the way, he already knew about this matter.But when he saw Wei Yingning in Qionghuayuan, he pretended to be ignorant and asked, "What is the princess looking for?"

"The Minister of the Ministry of War is in trouble, can His Highness solve it?" Wei Yingning asked him directly without explaining the ins and outs.

"Jiang's family..." Li Mu sat down thoughtfully, brought a cup of tea to his mouth and drank it, then raised his eyes to look at Wei Yingning and said, "Jiang Shangshu holds an important position but is not good at it. I have unreasonable thoughts about the princess of this palace, why should I solve the problem with his family?"

Wei Yingning was shocked when he heard his words, and couldn't help but said anxiously: "Where does Mr. Jiang have any unreasonable thoughts about me?"

"If there is no unreasonable thought, why is the willow branch you gave him planted in his yard? If there is no unreasonable thought, why did his good sister come to ask you in the first place?"

Did Jiang Chiyi actually plant the willow branches that day?It's not for him to throw it away... Wei Yingning's face became hot, and he felt a little guilty.

She thought for a while, then softened her tone and said: "There is indeed some misunderstanding between Mr. Jiang and I. But that was all a long time ago. My father and Jiang Shangshu have a good relationship, and my mother and Mrs. Jiang have always been in touch. , Mrs. Jiang Liu regards me as her sister... I will definitely not stand by and watch a sudden change happen to her family."

"Then tell me what's going on."

Seeing Li Mu let go, Wei Yingning hastily told him everything he had heard from Jiang Zhaoer.

"Jiang Shangshu is a human being, so he can't cause such a big disaster." After hearing this, Li Mu made such a judgment, "I'm afraid it wasn't Mr. Jiang who offended some narrow-minded people with his rampage? That Zhou Zhongjun is very suspicious. Said Maybe it was he who tampered with the blunderbuss. How could the firearm presented to the emperor be easily exploded?"

"Zhou Zhongjun is certainly suspicious." Wei Yingning thought for a while before asking Li Mu, "But doesn't Your Highness suspect that someone is trying to use Mr. Jiang's blunderbuss to murder the emperor, but if the murder fails, the Jiang family will be blamed? "

"If the intention is different, then the suspicious person will be very different." Wei Yingning continued to speculate, "Is that Zhou Zhongjun doing things for others?"

Li Mu knew best that there were many people who wanted the emperor to die, but those who dared to take action were very few.

He pondered for a moment, and he already had speculations in his mind.He looked at Wei Yingning suddenly, and said with a smile: "You have already said everything, what you want, my father-in-law must be able to think of it, what do you need me to do?"

"Your Highness," Wei Yingning walked up to him and sat down, saying meaningfully, "The person who relieved the Jiang family's crisis must be my father, but the person the Jiang family should be most grateful to must be Your Highness."

Don't you want that position?Then we should seize every opportunity to win people's hearts.
