But the one she wanted to thank most was Sister Yue.
She knew very clearly in her heart that if it weren't for the fact that the emperor loved Sister Yue deeply and cared about Sister Yue's feelings, she would not be able to escape the clutches of the devil tonight.
Her life was ruined.
So she hugged Jiang Xinyue tightly, just like a drowning person hugging the life-saving driftwood and refusing to let go.
She kept crying again, until Jiang Xinyue was helpless and could only look at Emperor Xuanwu for help.
The emperor snorted coldly, glanced at her sideways, and chose to walk away.
Isn't it because this weak cousin doesn't trust him? Don't you feel sorry for your cousin?
Just suffer it yourself!
As soon as the emperor left, everyone who was waiting in the private hall followed him. Since he came to the brothel, it was not good for the girl's family. Jiang Xinyue didn't even bring Magpie and Shuangjiang with her. She came in with Shen Zhouan and a group of old men. of.
Wang Dequan saw the emperor's duplicity and stepped forward and said to Jiang Yuncai: "Second girl, let's go out quickly. Something will happen in this building soon. If you don't leave, you won't be able to get out."
What is about to happen has something to do with that Third Master Qu.
The emperor captured the second girl Jiang and the concubine of an official who was dismissed from Qinzhou a few days ago, and exchanged them with the second girl Jiang.
That concubine was the favorite concubine of the corrupt officials, and she kept a lot of ledgers there. The emperor's people had already found the ledgers, but they told the public that they had not found them, in order to make the corrupt officials in the ledgers relax their vigilance.
When necessary, they can all be caught in one fell swoop.
But Emperor Xuanwu was very scheming, and it was not necessarily just to kill all corrupt officials. He might also have kept the account books without announcing them, and secretly threatened those ministers to do things for himself.
Corrupt officials and honest officials are not so simple to judge.
Everyone knows that if the water is clear, there will be no fish.
Some honest officials were very ambitious but never made mistakes. The emperor could not tolerate such people, so he needed treacherous ministers to frame them with trumped-up charges, so that the emperor could take action.
In short, Qu Tianzhong hit the emperor's gun this time.
As for Pei Zhongshu, who caused all this, Jiang Xinyue guessed that the emperor was planning to divorce.
Putting all this on Pei Zhongshu made Duke Cheng Guo think that Pei Zhongshu did this because he was jealous of the Qu family's death-free gold medal, which could ensure that Duke Cheng Guo's palace would have no worries for the rest of their lives.
"ah--"
As soon as Jiang Xinyue and her group left Yihong Building, a shrill scream came from the backyard.
Emperor Xuanwu made a forward gesture with two fingers, and a large number of officers and soldiers rushed into Yihong Tower.
Screams, curses, and the chaotic running sounds of the crowd continued to sound, and some of the quick-reacting ones had already run out.
Seeing that there were so many people gathered outside, he regarded Jiang Xinyue and the others as a bunch of melon-eaters, and started to gather around and watch.
"What happened? Why did so many officers and soldiers suddenly rush in?"
"Isn't this Yihong Building harboring any fugitives? The battle was too scary."
"Could he be here for the official lady who was in trouble tonight? I said that official girls usually end up in the Jiaofang Division. How could they end up in a brothel? There must be something hidden here."
Jiang Xinyue protected Jiang Yuncai, and the two of them got into the carriage together. Shuangjiang and Magpie immediately gathered around: "Second girl, our empress was worried that you would be injured, so she asked me to bring the medicine box in advance. Where do you feel pain? I'm sorry, slave. Please apply the medicine, don’t worry, this slave was injured before, the doctor girl will bandage it three times a day, I won’t hurt you.”
Jiang Yuncai finally held back the tears that flowed out again because of Magpie's concern.
She stretched out her hands: "My fingers, they pricked my fingers..."
Crying, she lifted up her clothes again, revealing her back covered with blood blisters: "And on my back... they used candles to burn me. If you come a little later, I won't be able to survive..."
The physical and mental torture made her unbearable. Although there was no substantive violation, just taking off her top, leaving only her bellyband, and letting several men burn her back with candles, was enough for her. It is a great shame and humiliation.
If she hadn't firmly believed that her family would come to save her, she would have committed suicide by biting her tongue.
She was also afraid that if she died in a brothel without any reason, it would affect the reputation of other sisters in the family. Every moment she waited here was torture.
Shuangjiang hurriedly coaxed her: "It'll be fine after the bandage. Your Majesty has blocked the news. No one dares to gossip. Second Miss, please relax."
These words could only temporarily comfort Jiang Yuncai. There were so many people in the clothing store that day, how could they keep it a secret?
At most, it will stop spreading outwards.
Jiang Yuncai sniffed, looked at Jiang Xinyue timidly, and asked tentatively: "Sister Yue, I seemed to have seen you and the emperor having trouble just now. Is it because of me?"
"No……"
Jiang Xinyue shook her head: "Don't think too much."
The emperor was angry not because he wanted to save Jiang Yuncai, but ultimately because Jiang Xinyue didn't trust her at all.
He seemed to have discovered that Jiang Xinyue had never opened her heart to him at all.
If you never trusted him, what were those good memories of the past?
What he was really angry about was this.
Jiang Xinyue has one advantage: she will quickly admit her mistakes when her true nature is exposed. The emperor must not let him spend the night if he is angry. If he fails to coax her properly, he will be alienated from her and it will be over.
But now he was busy with business, and she had a frightened Jiang Yuncai with her, so she had to be sent back quickly.
Otherwise, as time goes by, the rumors will become even worse.
"Cousin, put away your tears, pretend as if nothing happened, go back happily, and don't let anyone know that you were rescued from Yihong Building."
Of the three ministers who went there today, only Shen Zhouan had met Jiang Yuncai. Neither the minister of Dali Temple nor the newly appointed governor of Qinzhou had met her.
The shopkeeper confessed at the time, but they were far away and did not hear clearly. Jiang Xinyue only said that he might be in Yihong Building, but did not say that he was definitely there.
Just say it was not found.
The ladies and young ladies in the palace have been warned not to talk nonsense. Jiang Xinyue just made up an excuse to get her cousin back. Who dares to question it?
If they talk nonsense, one or more of them will be punished for committing the crime of disrespect. How many lives do they have to go head-to-head with the emperor's favorite concubine?
The carriage turned around and retreated before the crowd thickened. The emperor looked at the retreating carriage and couldn't help but feel sour in his heart.
In her heart, everything is more important than him, right?
Chilling!
Really heartbreaking!
"Your Majesty, don't think so much. The Imperial Concubine has you in her heart. A slave can see clearly, but you are a fan of the authorities. The Imperial Concubine is confused if she only cares about you. If she doesn't believe you, how can she wait with you? She must be You have to take the initiative and look for it from room to room."
The Imperial Concubine is never a waiter, she is the most resolute, vengeful, and most crazy Imperial Concubine!
If the emperor hadn't come, she would have gone from the front hall to the backyard.
