Chapter 217 Distributing to Zhuangzi and Mines
Zhan Yi came forward and knelt down.
The head of the Xiang family led everyone to kneel down in a hurry, and Ye Qianning quietly hid back at the gate.
??The common people also knelt down, hugged Xiang Mingli and laid hands on her. Mrs. Wang knelt beside her and wiped her tears.
"The emperor has an edict. The wife of the Xiang family has no discipline and assassinates the general. She has committed a heinous crime and has been sent to Zhuangzi. She will never be able to return to the capital city. The second wife of the Xiang family is full of evil and deliberately kills people. She will be exiled to the northern mines and set off today." Eunuch Li folded the imperial edict after reading it. Qi: "General Xiang is seriously injured, so the patriarch Zhang Lao will take over this decree."
"The common people receive the order." The old patriarch came forward and knelt down to receive the order.
Eunuch Li sent the imperial edict: "What''s the matter with General Xiang?"
“The general is seriously injured and may not be able to get out of bed in a short time.”
“Your Majesty asked our family to bring the best gold sore medicine to General Xiang.” Eunuch Li took it out from his arms.
“Thank you, Your Majesty.”
Eunuch Li smiled and looked up at everyone: "Everyone, please disperse. The Emperor knows everything about the General''s Mansion and will never forgive anyone who seriously injured the General. As a courtier, your life belongs to the Royal Family, even if it is your biological mother." There is no right to control life and death.”
??The words passed down by Emperor Beili are also a warning to all the officials in the court. If they all think like Mrs. Xiang, the court will be in chaos.
“A woman will follow her husband when she marries, and she will follow her son after her husband dies. This has not changed since ancient times.” Eunuch Li said again with a raised voice.
The crowd was very quiet, and they all understood in their hearts that the world belongs to the emperor, and the general is the sword in the emperor''s hand. The ignorant old woman almost broke the sword, how could the emperor tolerate it?
??Assigned to Zhuangzi, his life will not be long.
Such a result also calmed the anger in the hearts of everyone.
Mrs. Xiang''s face turned pale with fright. She had the energy to argue just now, but after hearing the imperial edict, she became silent. She lowered her head and hugged the unconscious Xiang Mingli, with her head close to her, and her big hands touched his hair: "Be good, second brother, sleep. Be good..."
Wang was so frightened that she almost fainted. Being sent to the northern mines was equivalent to a death sentence. If she took her child to that place, her life would be worse than death.
"Mother...mother..." She was already scared, but the old lady''s sudden change made her confused.
"Head Xiang, the government will come to pick you up tomorrow, so be sure to keep an eye on him." Li Gonggong said. “Yes, father-in-law, don’t worry.”
Eunuch Li got on the carriage after giving instructions.
Turning back to the old patriarch, Xiang saw that the old lady was not looking pitiful at all. He raised his hand and called to the young man: "Take them all to the woodshed and watch them carefully. Don''t let them run away or die."
"yes."
??The boy stepped forward and pulled the old lady up. The old lady couldn''t help but still had a smile on her face.
"Shh, keep your voice down, my second son is sleeping, so keep your voice down."
??The servant pulled the person through the gate without saying a word, and several people carried Xiang Mingli back to the house.
Wang was pulled up, her feet swaying, and she stumbled as if she had lost her soul.
Mrs. Zhan watched with surprise in her eyes: "Mrs. Xiang must not be... crazy."
“Pretending.” Zhan Chi snorted.
“I don’t see it.”
“It’s better to be crazy than to be crazy sooner or later, but I went crazy after the imperial edict, so I just lied to you like this.” Zhan Chi had never seen someone with such a strong heart as Mrs. Xiang, it’s strange that she could be crazy.
Mrs. Zhan pushed her dissatisfiedly: "Speak nicely."
“My son is saying that my mother is kind-hearted.” Zhan Chi smiled.
“Glib tongue.” Mrs. Zhan sneered, raised her head and looked around: “Where’s Fat Tuan?”
Hearing this, Zhan Chi looked around and saw no one: "Let''s go back to Yuehua Xiaozhu."
