Chapter 288
With his own son on the one hand, and the daughter of a criminal minister who lost his virginity on the other, the balance of the old emperor has never been skewed.

Because the balance is tilting towards the second prince from beginning to end.

Concubine Jiang looked at the second prince in shock. Is this the gentle, humble and kind His Royal Highness she knew?
"Your Highness, how can you slander my concubine like this, why?"

The appearance of her crying and complaining was pitiful, but the second prince didn't even give her a look of charity.

The old emperor blushed with anger, and pointed at Concubine Jiang who was kneeling on the ground and roared, "Come here, bring this bitch down to me, and beat her to death with a stick!"

Just finished speaking, the old emperor shook his head again, "No, no, I can't let this bitch lose the face of my royal family!"

Concubine Jiang knelt on the ground helplessly, knowing that all this was powerless, her face was full of despair.

"Come here!" The old emperor said loudly, "It is the second prince's side concubine's personal maid Peihuan to pass on my will, sell the royal property, and privately release the usury. The bold and unreasonable people dare to despise the emperor's prestige, and they are immediately thrown into prison. , Qiu Hou asks to kill!"

He looked at Concubine Jiang indifferently, as if looking at a dying person, "As for you, you can't discipline the servants around you and let them do whatever they want. Relegated to common people, exiled from the city, and never set foot in the capital again!"

Following the old emperor's eloquent will, the fate of Concubine Jiang's side came to an end.

In this way, under the supervision of the emperor, Concubine Jiang and Peihuan were quickly locked into the prison car, one was escorted to the prison in the capital, and the other headed towards the city gate.

The onlookers on the road were at a loss. The prisoners who were escorted in the past were all vicious men, and this was the first time they saw two helpless women.

"What's the matter? What crime have they committed?"

Some people who don't pay attention to major events in Beijing and China asked.

But soon there was an answer, and I saw soldiers in armor holding notices posted on the wooden boards on both sides of the road.

A group of people swarmed up to join in the fun.

A person who could read read the above words aloud, "Peihuan, the unreasonable man, despised the imperial prestige, secretly resold the things in the palace, gave loan sharks, and the second prince and side concubine, Jiang Shi, was demoted to common people and expelled from the capital."

Some people who heard about Concubine Jiang suddenly realized, "So that's how it is!"

"What's going on? Tell me!"

"Our emperor is really merciful. It is said that the Jiang family didn't even want the child in their womb in order to fight for favor. No, she had a miscarriage a few days ago and caused such a scandal, but she didn't cut her off!"

"Ah, that's the emperor's grandson! This Jiang family must be crazy!"

Soon, the prison van left the capital. According to the decree, Jiang was supposed to be escorted to the frontier for exile, but the road became more and more sinister.

Anyone who is familiar with the path will know at a glance that this is the road leading to the mass graves outside the city.

Jiang Shi was still in a trance until the prison car stopped and the guards let her get out of the shackles.

"What is this for?" Jiang asked.

The guard sneered, "Stop rambling, hurry up and get down for me!"

Jiang Shi was confused, just as she stepped out of the prison car, the guards took her to an open space.

Jiang looked around, she had never seen such a place, why was there a mound of dirt piled up at intervals?
"Pfft-"

The sound of the blade passing through the body sounded.

Jiang's eyes were still staring at the surrounding mounds, and he felt a stabbing pain in his left chest. When he looked down, he saw bright red drops of blood dripping from the tip of the knife gleaming with cold light.

And, visible to the naked eye, her chest was quickly stained with a large amount of blood.

The blade pierced through the heart, and before Jiang could speak, he lost his breath.

The guard stepped forward to check and confirmed that she was completely dead, "Quickly dig a hole and bury her!"

At some point in the mass grave, there was a mound of earth and a pile of burnt ashes, which could be vaguely seen to be wooden cages.

Time passed slowly, and no one remembered Jiang Fangfei anymore.

This is how the Dengwen drum was sounded again after many years. When the incident happened, a group of birds perched on the glazed tiles of the palace was startled, but when the incident ended, no one took it to heart.

However, when he went to court the next day, the emperor specifically emphasized that officials, big and small, should take good care of their back houses, and asked the Ministry of Households to strictly investigate the secret villages that released usury.

The emperor was furious because of this incident, and it was a little late for the world to come down.

On the way back home, Fang Anren walked side by side with Pei Mo, "Brother Pei, isn't that Jiang family going to be exiled to the border area? But why did I hear that there is no news about Jiang family now?"

Pei Mo thought about it, but didn't speak.

"It's so miserable. There is no trace. It is said that the soldiers who escorted the Jiang family have all returned to Beijing. I am afraid that only God knows where the Jiang family is."

Fang Anren said again, there seemed to be something in the words.

Pei Mo thought of the second prince, and his eyes darkened, "The frontier is thousands of miles away, so it is not impossible for an accident to happen on the road."

"That's right." Fang Anren agreed, "I don't know what the hell is going on?"

No one mentioned that name, but both of them knew it in their hearts.

General's Mansion, when Pei Mo came back, it happened to be lunch time.

Murong Qing ate on his own, without saying a word to Pei Mo.

But a bowl of rice was already set on the table, and Pei Mo sat down stubbornly without saying a word.

In the past few days, Pei Mo and Murong Qing came here like this.

Neither of them spoke, but they would definitely wait for each other when they ate. Sometimes the two of them picked up the same dish tacitly and withdrew their chopsticks synchronously.

Both of them were embarrassed by the disturbance, but the two of them were angry like children, and neither of them would speak first.

Both Ping'er and Liu Shen were anxious to death.

So when standing aside serving dishes, Ping'er always spoke from time to time to ease the cold atmosphere.

Ping'er racked his brains, thinking of something to say to make Murong Qing happy.

"Ma'am, have you heard?" Ping'er said, "The Second Prince's side concubine has been expelled from the mansion! Her maid has been imprisoned, and will be executed after the fall."

Murong Qing asked, "When did it happen? Why haven't I heard about it?"

Is she out of the news?How could such a big matter be known later than Ping'er.

"It was just yesterday, there were still..."

Before Ping'er finished speaking, Pei Mo interrupted him sharply, "Shut up!"

Pei Mo's chopsticks slapped on the table, "Eat as you eat, what nonsense!"

The sudden anger startled both Ping'er and Murong Qing.

Pei Mo pointed to the door, "Ping'er, you go out, you don't need your vegetables here."

"Okay, servant girl, let's go now."

Ping'er whispered, knowing that he might have said something wrong, felt uneasy, and walked away resentfully.

Murong Qing watched Ping'er leave, looked at Pei Mo suspiciously, and complained in his heart, he ate as soon as he ate, it was fine, why did he suddenly lose his temper?
