Chapter 94 Entering the Palace to Ask for Punishment
In Rongqing Hall, Jia She and Jia Zheng appeared here. Both of them looked very unhappy. Only Jia Mu was sitting in the room. Wang Xifeng and the others were not there.
As Grandmother Jia listened to the two people talking, her old face turned visibly pale.
"He killed Jingzhao Yi?" His eyes widened, as if he had heard some Arabian Nights fairy tale.
Jia Zheng said with fear on his face
"Madam, it is absolutely true. The coffin is still outside in the yard. What do you think we should do now?"
Jia She also looked at the old lady. He was also very panicked and could only wait and see if the old lady could provide any solution.
At this time, Jia's mother had not yet come to her senses. She had never expected that Jia Hu would be so cruel. Didn't he know the seriousness of the matter?
The atmosphere in the room became extremely depressing. After a long while, Grandmother Jia finally let out a long sigh.
"What else can I do? I can't hide it. I can only go to the palace to apologize."
"Ah, enter... the palace..." Jia Zheng's face turned pale, his body swayed, and he almost fell to the ground.
Jia She was also a little scared
"Really? You want to enter the palace?
Jia glared at them.
"You think this matter can be concealed? Go and plead guilty. I hope His Majesty will give you a lighter punishment for the sake of our two Dukes Rong and Ning."
She sighed deeply, stood up, and looked much more depressed.
"You guys go down and get ready, and come with me into the palace." After saying that, he walked inside.
"Yuanyang, change my makeup into a royal decree."
Jia Zheng and Jia She looked at each other, sighed, and their faces became gloomy. They could only turn around and go back to change their clothes.
Soon, a strange scene appeared outside Rongguo Mansion. There were two carriages in front.
There was a coffin on the last carriage, which was as weird as it could be.
People on Ningrong Street looked at this scene in bewilderment, secretly wondering in their hearts, could it be that they were going to carry the coffin back to the hometown?
But that doesn’t make sense. The seventh day hasn’t even passed yet, and there should be two coffins.
The Jia family would never explain to them, but there was no need to explain.
It shouldn't take long for them to know, after all, the Jia family is a place with leaks everywhere.
Grandmother Jia sat alone in the carriage, feeling very nervous, holding the family tree tightly in her hand.
She wanted to prove that Jia Hu and the Rongning Mansion had no relationship at all.
In this way, at most they will be held responsible for improper management of their tribesmen, and the punishment will be much lighter.
I was secretly glad in my heart that Jia Hu changed the family tree himself, otherwise it would have been a big deal.
In the East Warm Pavilion, Xia Shouzhong hurried in.
"Your Majesty, the old lady of the Jia family, General Jia, and Jia Zheng are outside asking for an audience.
And also brought a coffin. "When he said this, he looked strange.
The Jia family is really interesting. They actually carried a coffin to see Your Majesty. Are they seeking death?
As the incident happened so suddenly, Xia Shouzhong had not received the news yet.
So he had no idea that Jia Hu had killed Jingzhao Yi.
Emperor Qianwen, who was reviewing the memorials, was startled, put down his pen, and looked at Xia Shouzhong in confusion.
"What? Jia family? Coffin?" He was startled and frowned.
Could it be that I had suppressed the affairs of Jia Jing and Jia Zhen, so the Jia family came with a coffin to force me to abdicate?
Thinking of this, his face turned ugly. Now he was very afraid of Jia Hu.
He would not provoke the murderer without being fully prepared.
"Yes, Your Majesty, do you want to see him?" Xia Shouzhong asked hurriedly.
Emperor Qianwen's eyes flashed, and he said in a deep voice
"Tell them to come in."
Xia Shouzhong went out, and naturally would not let them carry the coffin in. He just brought Jia Mu and the others in.
As soon as they came in, Jia's mother and the other two knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me." The three of them hardly dared to raise their heads, and all kowtowed solemnly.
Emperor Qianwen was stunned. He thought they would complain directly, but they apologized first and smiled.
"How can Madam Jia be so polite? Xia Shouzhong, why don't you help the old lady up and give her a seat?"
Xia Shouzhong was about to help Grandmother Jia up, but Grandmother Jia didn't dare to get up and waved her hand.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I am guilty and dare not get up." Seeing how determined Lady Jia was, Xia Shouzhong could not help but look at Emperor Qianwen.
Emperor Qianwen frowned, his eyes filled with even more doubt. He waved his hand and Xia Shouzhong stepped aside.
"Madam, if you have something to say, just tell me." Emperor Qianwen was too lazy to be polite and said directly.
Jia She and Jia Zheng, who were standing behind, felt their hearts tighten, knowing that the critical moment had come, and their bodies could not help but tremble.
Xia Shouzhong looked at the two of them in confusion. What were they doing? Are they so scared?
Grandmother Jia took a deep breath and suddenly took out the family tree.
"Your Majesty, our family is unfortunate and has an unfilial son.
One of my eldest son's concubines, Jia Hu, was a cruel man. He not only killed his uncle Jing from Ningguo Mansion,
He also killed his cousin, Jia Zhen, and even forced the clan to establish their own lineage.
He is no longer a member of our Rongguo Mansion."
Emperor Qianwen had a blank expression on his face. He had known all this for a long time.
So I was not surprised, and thought to myself, maybe the Jia family really came to seek justice.
Grandmother Jia secretly glanced at Emperor Qianwen and saw that she could not tell whether the emperor was happy or angry.
My heart skipped a beat. Your Majesty is so cunning. I gritted my teeth and continued.
"Today, he even killed the Jingzhao Yin who came to question him." He burst into tears and said
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I am incompetent and I really can't do anything about him. Please, Your Majesty, please make the decision."
The room suddenly became quiet, Xia Shouzhong opened his mouth wide, what?
He killed Jingzhao Yin again. Is it really necessary to be so exaggerated?
It's only been a few days, and he has killed so many people. This guy must be the reincarnation of the King of Hell.
Emperor Qianwen's cheeks twitched. Although he was a little surprised,
But why don't you find it strange at all? If you think about it carefully,
That guy dared to come to the palace to kill the emperor, so isn't it normal to kill Jingzhao Yin?
Emperor Qianwen also discovered his character, which was lawless and without any taboos.
The key is that his strength is strangely strong, which makes him feel helpless.
Jia Mu and the other two lowered their heads, waiting for Emperor Qian'an's verdict, their hearts in their throats.
Your Majesty would probably be furious, and might even send people to arrest Jia Hu directly.
I don't know how long it took before Emperor Qianwen said calmly:
"Well, I understand. You can go back."
Jia Mu and the other two were stunned. They looked up at Emperor Qianwen in confusion. What did they mean by knowing? Just like that?
Xia Shouzhong suddenly stepped forward and said with a smile
"You three, please."
Jia Mu and the other two kowtowed and followed Xia Shouzhong out of the East Warm Pavilion. At this time, the three of them were at a loss.
Jia She was quick to wake up. He hurriedly took out a stack of banknotes and stuffed them into Xia Shouzhong's sleeve, smiling ingratiatingly.
"General Manager Xia, Your Majesty...what does this mean?"
Xia Shouzhong touched the banknotes and looked at the three people with pity.
They are really crazy, using His Majesty as a gun
"Haha, it's nothing. You just go back and wait for the imperial edict." After saying that, he turned and left.
Suddenly thought of something and turned around.
"By the way, you guys should take the coffin back and send it to Lord Zhang's residence.
Oh, I really don't know what you were thinking, bringing a coffin into the palace. " Then he shook his head.
He ignored them and hurried into the east warm room.
