One was frightened and the other was on his knees begging for mercy. The way the Jia siblings looked at this moment really made Zhu Xianming feel dissatisfied.
But then he sighed again. The Jia family became what it is today because of his intention. Why bother to embarrass the two juniors now.
As for the so-called birth with jade in his mouth, Zhu Xianming only thought that the Jia family was stupid and did such messy things.
"That's all, that's it for today!"
The Emperor's Holy Birthday Festival was coming soon. For the sake of the Emperor's sake, Zhu Xianming did not want to pursue the matter any further.
He is the emperor, and whether or not he wants to be named in some matters is entirely up to him. No one dares to accuse his decision-making of being right or wrong.
Standing up, Zhu Xianming said calmly: "Take this Jia family member back, and you will all disperse!"
I came here tonight because I was worried about Zhu Jinghong's safety. Now that the little bastard is fine, this farce should naturally end.
As an emperor with great achievements, Zhu Xianming knew very well what tricks his two sons were playing, but he just saw through it without telling them.
Jia Baoyu was taken out by the young eunuch. Although Yuan Chun was extremely worried, he did not dare to go out to care at this moment.
Zhu Xianming looked at the queen: "Are you leaving?"
"I have something to ask Old Thirteen, please go back first!"
Zhu Xianming nodded and left the hall first, followed by Prince Rui and his wife.
"Thirteenth brother, are you okay?"
Zhu Jingyuan stepped forward and looked at Zhu Jinghong again and again.
"Fourth brother, that's almost enough. I'm fine!" Zhu Jinghong looked indifferent.
At this time, Yang Qingyin said: "Fourth, you are weak and you were seriously ill a few days ago. It is already late at night. Go back and rest early!"
"yes!"
He and Yuan Chun left the main hall together. Zhu Jingyuan only focused on rushing on his way, while Yuan Chun rejected the accompanying eunuchs and maids.
"Thanks to Thirteenth Brother's help, Prince Rui and his two men were not able to succeed in their evil plan. Your Highness must thank Thirteenth Brother properly!"
Although he remembered his brother Baoyu, Yuanchun could only give up the idea of meeting him because the latter had been sent out of the palace at this moment.
There are many eyes and ears in the palace, so if she goes to visit, it will only cause trouble and it will not be good for the Jia family.
Zhu Jingyuan nodded and replied: "Yes, I have to thank him properly. From the time I went to Jinling to now... the thirteenth brother has helped a lot!"
After saying this briefly, the two of them had nothing to say, they looked like familiar strangers.
Besides, in Zhu Jinghong's bedroom, he was standing respectfully in front of the queen.
"Knowing this time, why did I punish you to kneel for so long?"
"Because my son made his parents unhappy!" Zhu Jinghong said nonsense.
Yang Qingyin looked dissatisfied and asked, "You bastard, why am I asking you to be punished?"
Because of what punishment? There were so many things that Zhu Jinghong didn't know where to start.
There were so many things that happened in Jinling, and there was no trace of him in any of them. He couldn't be told one by one, right?
"Is it because my son drank too much? Or is it because his son stays in bed all day long? Or..."
Yang Qingyin saw through Zhu Jinghong's trick of avoiding the important and taking the easy way out as soon as he opened his mouth.
"What happened when you were encircling and suppressing the White Lotus Sect in Jinling?" Yang Qingyin asked with a cold face.
Queen Yang Qingyin's favorites are Zhu Jinghong and Zhu Yunsheng, and she has never had this attitude.
"Um... didn't my son already say everything before the report!" Zhu Jinghong felt guilty. He never thought that this would be the case.
"Aren't you telling the truth?" Yang Qingyin looked stern.
Standing up, Yang Qingyin angrily scolded: "You colluded with foreign ministers to deceive the Holy Spirit. Do you know what a sin this is!"
As a prince, it is a first-class taboo to collude with foreign ministers to deceive the emperor.
If it were Zhu Jinghong's concubine brothers, they might have been given white silk and poisonous wine as Zhu Jingyuan said before.
Of course, it is not impossible to be kicked to death like the emperor's eldest son.
"Mother, son..."
"Kneel down!" Yang Qingyin became angrier as she thought about it, and the anger was about to burst out of her eyes.
Zhu Jinghong had no choice but to kneel down. At this moment, he was really worried, not for himself but for the queen.
Ever since she was injured by an arrow, Yang Qingyin's health has been deteriorating and she cannot stand anger and stimulation.
Walking up to Zhu Jinghong, Yang Qingyin raised her waist and asked, "Also, who made you so bold to go out of the city to cause mischief with just a few guards?"
"Do you know that your body, hair, and skin are affected by your parents? How could you be so arrogant and do this to Meng Lang?"
The more Yang Qingyin spoke, the more anxious she became. She was so frightened when she thought about it that she slapped Zhu Jinghong in the face.
"You bastard, have you ever thought about how your mother will survive if you have any trouble?"
Hearing these heavy and motherly words, even though Zhu Jinghong was an "outsider", he was deeply moved by them at this moment.
At this moment, his soul seemed to have truly merged with his body, giving him a new understanding of his identity.
He is not only the thirteenth son of the emperor, but also the precious son of Queen Yang Qingyin.
This also shows that the so-called "crime of deceiving the emperor" just now seems not as serious as his wandering.
This kind of treatment was truly unique. The old emperor only made him kneel down for a few hours, which was really an advantage for him.
"Mom, my son will never dare to do it again!" Zhu Jinghong admitted his mistake honestly.
"You won't dare to do it again? Do you still want a next time? Do you know that my mother is going to die of panic!"
"Thirteen, you are an honest kid, how come you learned to lie even after going out? You are really going to make me mad!" Yang Qingyin became angrier as she spoke.
Zhu Jinghong's predecessor, his only hobby was martial arts training, he was really an honest kid.
It's just that kind of personality is gone forever. After all, the core of the body is still the same but has changed.
"Mom, if you are angry, you can hit me or scold me, but don't hurt yourself!"
"My son will be in peace from now on and will never make you angry again!"
Seeing that Zhu Jinghong was really sincere, Yang Qingyin calmed down a little, but there was still evil in her eyes.
Seeing this, Zhu Jinghong stood up quickly, came closer, handed over the tea cup, and said with a smile: "Mom, please calm down, my son will never dare to do it again!"
Yang Qingyin took the tea cup. Even if this matter was revealed, Zhu Jinghong felt relieved.
"If you still want my mother to live a few more days, just give me some peace and don't cause any more trouble!"
"That's it, that's it!" Zhu Jinghong's face was full of smiles.
"Mom, you've been punished... My father's side should be fine too, right?"
"have no idea!"
These words made Zhu Jinghong feel anxious again. If he had to deal with the crime of deceiving the emperor, he would not be able to get the chair in Qianqing Palace.
"Mom, you have to speak for me, otherwise dad will kill me!"
"That's none of my business. You can find time to explain yourself, and be more sincere... maybe he will forgive you!"
"This..." Zhu Jinghong looked very embarrassed.
Seeing him like this, Yang Qingyin felt better in her heart. She just wanted to make the gangster suffer.
"This, this, this, you caused the trouble yourself, shouldn't you clean it up yourself?" Yang Qingyin asked with eyes wide open.
"That being said, my son has made a lot of contributions by going to Jinling. It's always okay to offset the merits!"
At this time, Yang Qingyin sneered and said, "I don't know if you deserve the credit or not, but your ability to find girls really makes my mother-in-law look down on you!"
"Ah? What? Mother... please listen to my explanation!"
"Explain? Explain what?"
Seeing Zhu Jinghong's embarrassed look, Yang Qingyin said coldly: "Boy... you know it's against the rules but you still do it, aren't you afraid of killing this girl?"
"I also heard... that when you came back this time, you asked the Jinling Xue family to go with your camp?"
This mother is too well-informed. The key is that she also connected Yinglian with the Xue family, and she really saw through the essence at a glance.
What kind of hero saves the beauty, what kind of gratitude to the Xue family, to put it bluntly... just covets other people's daughters.
"Mom, there is an inside story on this matter, don't get it wrong..."
