The reason for her decline was all because of him, which made Xiao Junzhan look at her intently for a long time with his piercing eyes. Finally, he slowly nodded and compromised, no longer insisting on accompanying her.
His girl is so smart, has she discovered that as long as she treats him a little better, there is nothing he can do about it.
The two had lunch together, and it was not until the afternoon that Wei Hanzhang left the palace alone.
As his sweetheart left, the affection in Xiao Junzhan's eyes slowly faded. He glanced sideways at Ning Hai and said, "What's going on over there in the Tianlao?"
Ning Hai bowed slightly and said in a low voice: "An hour ago, the Master of the Punishment Division came back to say that it was successful... Mrs. Gu chose Bai Ling, but she has already left."
Xiao Junzhan nodded and asked again: "Is Changle still at the gate of the palace?"
"She was kneeling there yesterday afternoon, and there is no use for breakfast or lunch today." Ning Hai paused and reported: "His Majesty sent someone to bring food over there, but he did not allow her to enter the palace to see her. "
"Go there in person and tell her the news of Cheng Yi's death." He lowered his eyes and was silent for a while, with an expression that gave no clue. After a few breaths, he said: "The Chief of Punishment also went to say hello. General Cheng Yi's body was sent to the Duke's Mansion of Qi State, and he was allowed to be buried with the ceremony of a princess."
He was unwilling to spare the niece's life during his lifetime, but he was willing to give her honor after death and not let her be hastily wrapped up as a sinful woman and thrown into a mass grave. This was the last moment of the relationship between the sister and brother.
Ning Hai respectfully agreed to the promise, accepted the order and left, feeling full of emotions in his heart.
A month ago, no one in the capital would have thought that the eldest princess, who was noble and domineering and had a higher level of ambition for half her life, would one day endure the pain of a white-haired person giving a black-haired person.
It happened that her younger brother personally ordered it, and her father, who had doted on her for half her life, acquiesced to this result.
In the past few days after returning to Beijing from the palace, Princess Changle came to the palace every day to plead for mercy. As the emperor got older, his heart became softer and softer, and he could not be cruel to his beloved daughter, so he tried to persuade his son to keep his granddaughter alive.
So these days, how Qi Yuxiao should deal with it has been undecided.
Everyone thought that the biggest punishment for this royal granddaughter, a former princess who had been pampered and grew up, was nothing more than a small punishment and a big warning. After all, the people in power in the dynasty were her maternal grandfather and uncle.
But yesterday, not long after the emperor summoned Wei Hanzhang into the palace, a decree came from the Changji Palace, and the outcome of Qi Yuxiao's treatment was determined.
He intended to murder the Crown Princess and was ordered to be executed.
This result really made the courtiers and dignitaries realize what it means to be timid and what it means to be inviolable.
There wasn't even any time to relax. The Chief of Punishment got the order early this morning and took all the poisonous wine, white silk, and daggers to the Tianlao.
No matter how noble Princess Ren Changle's status is, there is no room for change.
At this moment, she didn't know that Qi Yuxiao was dead, and she was still kneeling to plead for her daughter, trying to get her brother to take his life back.
Even though he had experienced the domineering nature of this legitimate princess, Ning Hai, who had slightly criticized her, was also a little embarrassed.
Who would have thought that even if Princess Chengyi attacked His Highness himself, she might still be able to survive.
But she just had ill intentions towards the girl whom His Highness cherished and doted on.
...The dragon has reverse scales, which will kill you if you touch them.
After this incident, I’m afraid no one knows what His Highness’ reverse scale is.
Anyone who dares to think about that girl again should first consider whether he has as much face as Princess Changle.
…………
Wei Hanzhang did not go home after leaving the palace, but went directly to Chengen Bo's Mansion. These days, she visits the door almost every day. The concierge recognizes her identity and welcomes her in attentively.
Before she reached the entrance of the main courtyard, none of the servants she met along the way showed any signs of joy, and her heart gradually sank after having been so excited all the way.
...That's right. How could the information provided by Xiao Boqian be false?
This is the time after dinner and lunch break.
In the main courtyard, everyone from the Jiang family except the juniors gathered together.
Today, the eldest son of the Jiang family returned to Beijing. After hearing the news, Jiang, the married woman, came back to visit her eldest brother.
When Wei Hanzhang entered the door, he saw Mr. Jiang sitting below Mr. Jiang at a glance, and his expression was suddenly startled.
She almost didn't recognize that the man with gray hair and haggard sideburns was her uncle who loved beauty very much and had a good reputation in the brothels of Xuzhou.
Mr. Jiang, who has been in exile for several months, looks like he has suffered a lot. Compared with his two younger brothers, his originally well-maintained face is at least twenty years older.
Thin and haggard, he looked like an old man struggling to make a living in the countryside.
Sitting next to him was his wife Wan Shi, who looked no better than her husband. She even seemed more miserable than her husband.
Wei Hanzhang's nose became sour and he almost shed tears.
Her eldest aunt was such a cheerful person, dignified and virtuous, and managed the household well. Even if her husband was lustful, romantic, and had many concubines in the backyard, she would discipline them one by one and not make any trouble.
Over the years, as their children have grown up, my uncle seems to have had enough of spending time in middle age, and he gradually starts to take care of the family. The two of them, as a young couple, have been accompanying each other for a long time. Just when they should have lived a stable life, they encountered this disaster.
The eldest daughter was abandoned when she got married, and the eldest grandson was not retained. The blows came one after another, and even a strong woman could not bear them.
Mrs. Jiang comforted her eldest sister-in-law for a long time, looking a little tired. When she rubbed her temples and raised her eyes, she saw her daughter who was supposed to be in the palace coming, with a little surprise on her face.
At this glance, the rest of the Jiang family also discovered Wei Hanzhang's figure.
Everyone, including Mr. Jiang, quickly stood up and saluted.
Wei Hanzhang was helpless, but he had already seen the strangeness, so he shouted calmly, walked to Mrs. Jiang in a few steps, helped the old lady sit down, and turned to his uncle and aunt who were looking at him eagerly. , sniffed and said: "Sit down, we are all a family, there is no need for so many courtesy."
"Hey!" Uncle Jiang agreed quickly and forced out a smile: "Ran Ran looks more and more radiant."
He smiled very reservedly, even with some clearly visible flattery, which made Wei Hanzhang feel slightly embarrassed.
Her uncle was not very talented, had high ambitions but low abilities, was not a good official, was a dissolute man, was romantic, and was not a good husband, but he was really kind to her niece.
It should be said that her three uncles were all really good to her.
But at this moment, his smile made Wei Hanzhang feel that she was not the niece he had watched since childhood, but a noble person who could decide his life and death, his honor and disgrace.
A sour feeling rose in her chest, leaving her speechless for a moment.
After all, Wan had been immersed in the inner house for many years and had watched her grow up. He knew her niece's character and temperament and could guess a thing or two by seeing her expression. She hurriedly pulled her husband to sit down and said with a smile: "Why didn't Ran Ran? Come here with your mother-in-law." (End of chapter)
