Chapter 155 The Emperor is Wrathful
Listening to Keqing's story, Wang Xifeng was surprised and envious. Wasn't this Bison Grass too good for Keqing? Just to make Keqing feel at ease, he went through so much trouble? Although it was not a formal marriage with a sedan chair, it was obviously more fortunate for a woman.
"You little bitch, you are so lucky! And I didn't expect that uncle to be so romantic. Are you satisfied now?"
Keqing didn't reply, but the satisfied smile on her face said it all.
"Quick, take out your phoenix crown and bridal bridal gown and show it to me!" Wang Xifeng said impatiently.
Keqing nodded and pointed to the box at the foot of the bed! Most of the things in this box were given to her by Jia Cong!
Including the jewelry and silver that Jia Cong gave her before, the phoenix crown and bridal robe from last night, the blue silk brocade bag, and the bedclothes that the two of them used to make the bed last night...
Wang Xifeng couldn't wait to open it. When she saw the phoenix coronet and bridal bridal gown, her eyes lit up. This was definitely more valuable than what she had worn at her wedding.
Touching the crystal clear gems on the phoenix crown, Wang Xifeng said enviously, "I don't know how much money was spent on it. In my opinion, even the ladies in the palace would wear nothing more than this!"
"This cannot be measured by gold or silver!" Keqing said angrily.
"That's true!" Wang Xifeng said bitterly, "It shows that guy really cares about you. Moreover, since he treats you like this, I think he will never treat you unfairly even if you get married in the future."
"Uncle San is naturally affectionate, and I won't fight for a penny. Now I am very satisfied." Keqing said happily.
In the imperial palace, Dai Quan hurried into the palace and then whispered to the retired emperor for a while.
"Hmm?" The emperor's face darkened. "Jinyiwei? The emperor wants to use him as a sword?"
"I checked and found that this was the message from Xia Shouzhong!" Dai Quan said in a low voice.
"Xia Shouzhong?" The emperor sneered, "If there was no indication from the emperor, would he dare to say these words? It seems that the emperor doesn't dare to speak directly to me, so he wants to see my reaction?"
"go!"
"Call the emperor here! Who has the guts to use Jia Cong as a knife?"
Not long after, Emperor Longxing came to the Daming Palace with a calm expression!
"Your son greets you, Father!"
The retired emperor sat on the couch with an expressionless face, without putting down the book in his hands, and Emperor Longxing could only lie on the ground, but the look on his face was somewhat gloomy and a little frightened.
He naturally knew the purpose of the emperor's request for him to come, but the emperor's reaction was beyond his expectations.
He knew that the retired emperor had summoned Jia Cong several times, and he even knew a lot of what was said. Moreover, the retired emperor had never given any suggestions on the arrangements for Jia Cong.
Therefore, in his opinion, Jia Cong was just a younger generation that the emperor favored because of the affection between him and several dukes. The emperor never expressed his intention to bring Jia Cong back to his fold. Jia Cong's official position and title were basically decided by him, which means that Jia Cong was his man.
But now, the news had just come, and the emperor couldn't help but call him over? Moreover, he was giving him a slap in the face in such an obvious way? Why was Jia Cong so important in the emperor's heart?
Emperor Longxing couldn't figure it out, but the emperor emeritus obviously wouldn't give him any explanation.
After a full quarter of an hour, the retired emperor put down the book in his hand and looked towards Emperor Longxing.
"Emperor, is it that I like a younger generation, so I make you so afraid? Or are you so impatient to control all the power in your hands?"
"Jinyiwei? You're willing to use Jia Cong as a knife? You're willing to cut off your own arm to let the founding lineage and Yuanping lineage fight each other, and then you can sit back and reap the benefits?"
"I won't live for many more years. Don't you want to wait even for these few years?"
The words of the retired emperor made Emperor Longxing break out in cold sweat. Even when the relationship between father and son was rather strained before, the retired emperor had never said such harsh words.
"Father, please calm down. It is I who am wrong!" Emperor Longxing did not even dare to argue.
"Emperor, you must remember! I passed the throne to you because I value you! Although some of your methods are not worthy of being on the table, being an emperor does not require a gentleman! But you must also know that besides you, there is Zhongshun, and you also have sons and nephews!"
Emperor Longxing felt cold all over. He certainly knew what the retired emperor meant!
"Father, calm down!"
"Go ahead. Don't worry. I won't sabotage you on Jia Cong's matter. But I rarely like a junior, and I won't allow you to use him as a knife to hurt him. Besides, Jia Cong is your subject, and it can be considered as your good fortune. You should consider whether this fortune is good or not!"
Emperor Longxing didn't dare to say much. After bowing, he slowly left the Daming Palace!
When he arrived outside the palace, Emperor Longxing looked gloomy. For the sake of Jia Cong, the retired emperor turned against him without any regard for his feelings? He even thought of replacing the emperor? Is Jia Cong a lucky star or a calamity star?
"His Majesty!"
Xia Shouzhong on the side called out softly!
Emperor Longxing said slowly, "There should be no more rumors about Jia Cong! In addition, the matter of transferring several ministers in the palace should be suppressed for the time being and we should wait and discuss it later."
Jia Cong naturally didn't know that the two emperors had been fighting in the palace because of him. If he knew, he would definitely be in tears and laughter. He had just suffered an unprovoked disaster.
However, the Jinyiwei was definitely not the position Jia Cong wanted to be in. In terms of power, the Jinyiwei was indeed extremely powerful! The idea of beheading first and reporting later and the imperial power's special permission were not just talk. All civil and military officials, as well as royal family members, were afraid of it.
However, being in charge of the Jinyiwei means knowing too many secrets of the emperor. Looking at the Jinyiwei since its establishment, which person in charge of the Jinyiwei could escape unscathed?
Jinyiwei had great power, achieved merit quickly, and were promoted and given titles quickly, but they also died quickly...
After his first perfect union with Keqing, Jia Cong naturally became addicted to it and would go to Keqing's room almost every night.
But Keqing was not able to withstand a big fight and could only fight briefly each time. Although Keqing mentioned several times that she wanted her two personal maids to help, and Ruizhu and the other two were obviously prepared, Jia Cong was not in a hurry to take care of Keqing's emotions. It would be best if everything could develop naturally.
Besides, it’s already in my mouth, so what difference does it make if it’s a day earlier or later?
Jia Cong went to work in an orderly manner every day. When he was free, he would go to the West Mansion to visit the young ladies and the old lady. Naturally, he lived a very comfortable life.
The verification of those accounts has come to an end, and the loopholes found are simply appalling! In addition, Jia Cong asked his personal guards to verify some of the Lai family's oppression of the people and even hurting people's lives. There is basically solid evidence, and now they are just waiting to use the knife.
