Chapter 69 Bullying Men and Dominating Women
Ming Lanxi became obviously arrogant after receiving Zhong Liqing's support. She stood up from the crowd, walked to Jiang Yu, and knelt beside her.

"Back to your Majesty, I, Ming Lanxi, today represented dozens of officials in the admonishment department to sue Jiang Siming for his misconduct, abuse of power, and oppression of the people."

Jiang Yu listened to Ming Lanxi's words and reflected in his heart, had he ever done this?
She even made it up to oppress the people. She only wanted money but no money, power but no authority. If something happened, she would run around... When did she have time to abuse her power and oppress the people?

Even if she wants to bully people, she does not rely on her authority.

"What's going on? Ming Aiqing, please tell me in detail." Zhong Liqing frowned and asked hurriedly. After speaking, he comforted Jiang Yu, "Jiang Qing, don't worry, I will naturally not let anyone frame you."

Jiang Yu nodded, "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. Let Master Ming finish what he has to say first."

Ming Lanxi continued: "I know that the Siming Mansion has a high prestige, but Master Jiang has made a mistake. I would rather risk the death penalty to speak out."

"Master Ming has laid the groundwork. You can say what you want to say, otherwise the morning morning will soon turn into the afternoon morning." Jiang Yu looked at Ming Lanxi's expression changing again and again, "What do you think?"

Ming Lanxi pursed her lips in displeasure, but did not refute.

"Your Majesty, Lord Jiang bullies men and dominates women among the people. Not to mention that she intentionally delayed the marriage of Lord Wen's beloved son and pretended to break off the marriage on the grounds that she was not a match. Lord Jiang, she was actually secretly hiding a man in the house... …”

Jiang Yu interrupted Ming Lanxi, "Master Ming, this is above the court, not in my inner courtyard. Not to mention whether what you said is true or false, by acting like this, are you treating the court as a vegetable market? "

"Master Jiang, if you don't have a guilty conscience, what are you afraid of when I speak?" Minglanxi raised her head and looked sideways at Jiang Yu.

Then he continued, "Your Majesty, not only that, Mr. Jiang also kidnapped a young man back to his home yesterday, and many people saw it."

"Jiang Qing, can you explain the reason?" Zhongliqing said solemnly.

"There are many servants in the mansion, and I don't know everyone. In addition, there is a disciple in my mansion, and I brought her to the palace banquet six years ago. Your Majesty also knows about it."

Jiang Yu glanced at Ming Lanxi and said, "I came back from Bianyun Town a few days ago and brought back an orphaned girl. It's just because the girl's relatives died in the accident in Bianyun Town. Where did the bullying of men and women come from?"

Ming Lanxi glanced at Zhong Liqing and saw that the king looked unhappy. He was afraid that he would not be able to accomplish the task, so he hurriedly said: "You are sophistical. Someone saw you kidnapping a young man back home yesterday? What's your explanation?"

"I wonder who Master Ming said someone saw. It was just an old friend of mine from the Qingcheng sect who came to visit for a few days." Jiang Yu knew without guessing that it must be the matchmaker from yesterday who held a grudge.

In the court, she was the only one who was competing with each other, while everyone else chose to remain silent.

"Of course someone saw it."

"Your Majesty, you must have made up your mind about what is right and what is wrong. I can bring the friend Mr. Ming mentioned to personally testify." Jiang Yu said with a smile.

"Ming Lanxi, please step back. How can you slander Jiang Qing without proof? Jiang Qing has been wronged. I will send someone to your house later to deliver some rewards."

"Your Majesty..."

"Retreat!"

"Congratulations, Your Majesty."

After Zhongliqing left, Jiang Yu looked at Ming Lanxi and glared at her, then walked away, shaking his head, "Why does Zhongliqing use such a restless person?"

The accusations made in court today had neither evidence nor witnesses, and were just empty words to impeach her. Anyone with a discerning eye knew that Jiang Yu could not be implicated.

To take a step back, even if she really raises someone in the house, it is still her private matter. At most, it is just bad conduct and a salary penalty, and it is absolutely impossible to bring her down.

Why did Zhong Liqing indulge Ming Lanxi?
It’s weird.

On the way back, many people stayed away from Jiang Yu. Only one person was seen standing at the foot of the steps, seemingly waiting for her.

"Master Jiang, long time no see."

"Wen Shangshu, don't come here without any problems." Jiang Yu said with a smile.

"It's been almost a year since I last saw you. Master Jiang seems to have never changed." Wen Yunqing looked at Jiang Yu and said softly.

"My lord has not changed, he still has the same style."

Wen Yunqing shook his head, "I'm old, I'm no longer younger than you."

Jiang Yu smiled and said nothing. When he arrived outside the palace gate, a carriage was waiting outside. Jiang Yu nodded and left.

Before he could leave, Wen Yunqing's voice came from behind him, "Mr. Jiang, as an official, you will rise and fall. Accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger. You must do what you wish for."

Jiang Yu watched the carriage slowly walk away, lowered his eyes and smiled softly.

Siming Mansion

Jiang Yu returned to the mansion with a worried look on his face. He searched around the Qianhe Courtyard and Qingyu Courtyard but could not find Tao Qian.

She finally stayed in her courtyard, looking at the peach tree with trembling branches, and stopped.

He stroked the peach branch with a half-smile, "Well, it looks really good. Since Tao Qian is not here, you can take the punishment for him. Why don't you just pull it out and plant it in the wilderness outside the city to save me the trouble of watching?" .”

As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Yu really stretched out her hand to pull up the tree, but someone was faster than her and suddenly appeared in front of her, stretching out her hand and looking at Jiang Yu.

"Master, you can't pull out the tree." Tao Qian looked at Jiang Yu flatteringly.

Jiang Yu pushed him lightly, "Get out of the way."

"Master... If you have something to say, why are you so angry?" Tao Qian took out her pink peach folding fan and gently fanned Jiang Yu, "Master, is it hot? Don't be angry. Angry people easily get angry. The sun is really shining on you, let’s go back to the room and sit down.”

"Do you know you got me into trouble today?" Jiang Yu asked in a deep voice.

Tao Qian lowered his head and said nothing. The news was already going crazy outside. How could he not know, "Master, I didn't mean it. I just said it casually to offend that person. Who knew he was going out and talking nonsense?"

Jiang Yu stared at him closely, his eyes dark, and he didn't look away until Tao Qian lowered his eyes with a guilty conscience.

"Okay, I was wrong about this, but I can't just blame me. Song Heqing is also at fault." Tao Qian shouted.

"What's wrong with him?"

Seeing that Jiang Yu had been successfully diverted, Tao Qian quickly continued to talk about Song Heqing's fault, "Look at him, for others, it's okay to kiss him and decline, but he pulled the matchmaker's collar and made people angry, otherwise it would be easy to talk to him. Sending it away would not have resulted in the current situation."

Jiang Yu patted his head and said, "You are quite good at finding someone to take the blame. You have made more mistakes than this. In the court today, someone said that you were hiding a foreign man in secret, bullying men and dominating women."

"Bullying men and women? Is it me who is the man? Yue Gu is the woman?" Tao Qian thought about Yue Gu's heroic appearance. No matter how she looked at it, she was the one bullying others.

"What are you thinking? It wasn't you who was deceived, it was Ning Bei. When I brought him here yesterday, that person saw me tying him up with white silk, so he made it up."

Tao Qian thought about the scene where Jiang Yu brought Ning Bei back yesterday, which indeed felt like bullying, especially since Ning Bei had a pale and frail face and his hands were tied.
