After the three yuan and the third, the ministers angered the ceremony and the music collapsed

Chapter 114 If a matchmaker steps into the house, I am willing to plead guilty

Jiang Zhao, who was still squatting on the ground drawing circles, was startled by the sudden sound.

She looked at the group of little eunuchs, what the hell, and suddenly let out a cry.

But then I reacted belatedly, this is asking myself to go in.

She got up quickly, straightened her official uniform, and walked in.

Walk to the center of the hall, and bow to the emperor above.

"My humble minister Jiang Zhao, see Your Majesty."

She is now a courtier, and it would be inappropriate to call herself a student.

The emperor nodded slightly.

"Aiqing is free."

Jiang Zhao flattened his body, looked at the emperor above and asked.

"I don't know why His Majesty summoned this humble minister for something important?"

Wei Chengyun had already told her before coming here, but he still had to ask what should be asked.

The emperor said loudly.

"Jiang Zhao, Minister Qi accused you of defrauding and regretting the marriage, is there such a thing?"

Jiang Zhao cursed secretly in his heart, this servant Qi is really shameless, but he still pretended to ask.

"Your Majesty, I have never had any interaction with Qi Shilang, and I don't know about cheating and regretting marriage."

Before the emperor said anything, Qi Bu stood up and accused him.

"Your Majesty, she lied. Everyone in Huaijing City knows about my son's marriage to the No. [-] Scholar of the Tianyu Dynasty, but now you are pretending to be confused."

Jiang Zhao looked at Qi Bu suspiciously and said.

"Weichen did hear that your son proposed marriage to the number one scholar, but no matchmaker has ever stepped into Weichen's mansion. How can you say marriage proposal?"

Qi Bu snorted coldly.

"In order to climb up to the high branch of Zhen Guogong's mansion, and to retaliate against my son's teasing you in Jingshui Tower, you deliberately made an ugly girl wait for my son to propose marriage in the mansion, so that you can see my son's joke."

Before Jiang Zhao could speak, Duke Zhen snorted coldly.

"The female number one scholar is too heavy, I'm afraid Gao Zhi from the Duke's Mansion of Zhen Guo can't bear it."

Jiang Zhao cursed inwardly, this old man, did you mean she was fat?
Where is she fat?
Jiang Zhao quietly looked at his figure.

Gah!
I've been eating a lot lately.

It seems to be a bit fat (﹏)
No, when I go back, I have to ask Wei Xiang to supervise me to lose weight.

Wei Xiang is the most conscientious, he will make himself eat less and move more.

Although Jiang Zhao thought so in his heart, the words in his mouth were also sharp.

"The branch of Duke Zhen's mansion is too high. I'm afraid that the delicate and frail Xiaguan will not be able to climb it. Duke Zhen should leave this branch for other noble girls to climb."

Although Zhen Guogong was angry when he heard it, he couldn't express it in the court.

Not to mention that this is the court and the emperor is here.

Let’s just say that he wants to lead the army to go to war. Although the emperor is just a decoration, but if he wants to overpower the civil servants and go to the war in a legitimate way, he must obtain the emperor’s approval.

Therefore, he could only keep his face ashen and keep silent.

Jiang Zhao guessed that the old man wanted to lead the army, so he dared to choke him openly in the court.

But Jiang Zhao also had a sense of proportion, and didn't push his limits.

She cupped her hands and said to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, during this period of time, I have been commuting between home and the Imperial Academy. I have been diligent and diligent, and have not received anyone's marriage certificate."

"I really don't know why Sir Qi wants to slander me."

After the emperor heard her words, a smile flashed in his eyes.

Dutiful, diligent and hardworking are all praised by others, but she is fine, and she is not ashamed to praise herself.

Jiang Zhao is not ashamed, she is indeed responsible and diligent, but it is a pity that those people in the Imperial Academy don't care about her at all, what can she do.

Zib accused her.

"My son came to your mansion to propose a marriage. Everyone in Huaijing City knows about it. How could you not know?"

Jiang Zhao waved his hand and said.

"Your son proposes marriage, but I have heard about it, but I have never heard of anyone coming to propose marriage at home. If Lord Qi doesn't believe it, you can send someone to ask near Weichen's home."

"If someone says that a matchmaker stepped into the Weichen's mansion to propose a marriage, then it doesn't matter if the official confesses to the crime of cheating and regretting the marriage."

Afterwards, Jiang Zhao said to the emperor again.

"Your Majesty, on the day Lord Qi's young master got married, and my ministers were also present to watch the fun, after that young master Qi saw Miss Jiangfu, he ran out of Jiangfu all the way."

"Miss Jiangfu chased all the way out and grabbed the corner of Mr. Qi's clothes, but Mr. Qi tore off the corner of his clothes, rode on his horse and rode away, leaving Miss Jiangfu to fall to the ground, ridiculed by everyone, and lost all face."

"It's really pitiful."

The emperor saw Qi Bu and asked.

"Zib, what else can you say?"

"Your Majesty, this is just her nonsense, Your Majesty cannot be trusted!"

Qi Bu hurriedly shouted.

Jiang Zhao also said hastily.

"Your Majesty, if this minister is talking nonsense, you can find out by sending someone to investigate."

The emperor turned to look at Qi Bu and asked in a deep voice.

"You say Jiang Zhao's words are nonsense, but Gu Aiqing's words are not half different from Jiang Zhao's. Could it be that Gu Aiqing, as the Minister of the Household Department, is also a school of nonsense?"

Being questioned by the emperor, Qi Bu was frightened into a cold sweat.

He subconsciously looked at Lord Zhen Guo, but Lord Zhen Guo didn't know about the fluffy dogs between him and Jing Huarong.

Birds didn't bird him.

Qi Bu had no choice but to say to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, I don't mean that."

the emperor asked.

"Then what do you mean?"

If he doesn't show off his power, does he really think of himself as a sick cat?
Qi Bu stammered for a long time, unable to explain why.

"My humble minister, my humble minister..."

At this time, he had secretly cursed Jing Huarong's ancestors for eighteen generations, and the eighteen generations included Jing Huarong's grandfather, the Duke of Laozhen.

The name on that day was Jing Huarong's promise that the Zhen Guo Guild would help him in the court.

But now Lord Zhen has no intention of helping him.

Only now did Qi Bu know that he had been abandoned by Jing Huarong.

All promises are false.

Seeing that Qi Bu was speechless, Gu Hongyuan hurriedly added another handful of firewood.

"Your Majesty, the Qi Mansion's cheating and repenting of the marriage is just the second thing. The members of the Jiang Mansion took the marriage letter signed by Qi Zixuan himself to the capital mansion to sue the Qi Mansion."

"Who knows that Chen Lianghan, the governor of the capital, not only did not accept the matter, but instead accepted bribes and protected Qibu officials, and even sent messengers to arrest all the people who discussed this matter in Huaijing City. The cost has gone up a lot.”

"What a servant of the household department, what a governor of Kyoto, what a good right-hand man of mine."

The emperor sneered, and looked at Qi Bu sharply.

Qi Bu was so frightened that he immediately fell to his knees.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me, Your Majesty, please forgive me."

The emperor didn't pay attention to him, but asked Wei Chengyun to send Chen Lianghan, the governor of Kyoto.

Wei Chengyun bowed slightly and said.

"Your Majesty, Master Chen is already waiting outside the palace."
