Chapter 131 His Royal Highness the Crown Prince
An hour later, Jiang Sujin finally returned to the Jiang Mansion. When Jiang Moting and Yang Xiuyun saw Jiang Sujin, they thought it was her ghost coming back.
It was not until Jiang Sujin hugged Yang Xiuyun crying that Jiang Moting realized that his daughter had really come back alive.
"Susu, my daughter, it's so good that you're not dead." Yang Xiuyun said excitedly while hugging her daughter.
Jiang Moting looked at his daughter standing in front of him unharmed and couldn't help crying.
After a long while, Jiang Sujin finally let go of Yang Xiuyun and said, "Dad, go to the palace now and tell the emperor that I am not dead. This way, Shen Yanfeng won't have to be beheaded."
Jiang Moting couldn't help but frown when he heard this: "Daughter, the emperor's original intention is to kill Shen Yanfeng. If you show up at this time, isn't it the same as going against the emperor?"
Jiang Sujin: "So what Dad means is that your daughter should hide until the emperor kills Shen Yanfeng?"
Jiang Moting: "Think about it, everyone knows that you are dead, and the emperor caught this mistake, so he had a reason to kill Shen Yanfeng. If dad told the emperor that you are not dead at this time, do you think the emperor can tolerate you?"
Jiang Sujin couldn't help but her eyes turned red when she heard this: "So Shen Yanfeng must die, right?"
Jiang Moting frowned and looked at her, then nodded: "The emperor is afraid that Shen Yanfeng will control His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the future, so he is doomed to die."
Jiang Sujin couldn't hold back her tears when she heard this: "But he didn't do anything wrong. How could the emperor do this?"
Jiang Moting: "The cunning rabbit dies and the running dog is cooked. The emperor's move not only eliminated Shen Yanfeng, but also to intimidate my father."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Sujin couldn't help but fall down on the chair.
She knew this might be the case, but she still hoped to change the fact that Shen Yanfeng was beheaded.
"Will my daughter never be able to go out again?"
Jiang Moting: "No, after Shen Yanfeng is beheaded, the emperor's goal will be achieved, and he will naturally not care about your life or death."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Sujin couldn't hold back her tears.
In fact, Shen Yanfeng is not a bad person by nature, he just has a more extreme personality.
What's more, he was truly sincere to her, and she was really moved by him.
A husband and wife are bound by a hundred days of grace. Thinking that he was about to be beheaded, she could not stop crying.
Yang Xiuyun patted Jiang Sujin's shoulder and said, "Susu, this is fate. We can't change it."
Jiang Sujin didn't say anything, but kept crying.
Yang Xiuyun gave the miracle doctor one thousand taels of silver, but the miracle doctor only asked for one hundred taels of silver.
Before leaving, the miracle doctor prescribed a few more prescriptions for Jiang Sujin and told her to take them on time.
That night, Jiang Sujin found Lin Feng. After seeing that the young lady was not dead, Lin Feng was so excited that he cried.
"Young Madam, it's great that you are not dead."
Jiang Sujin: "Lin Feng, I know what you mean, but you have to keep it a secret now. Do you understand me?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Feng immediately nodded with red eyes.
Jiang Sujin took out a letter from her bosom and handed it to Lin Feng: "You must deliver this letter to the hands of the Crown Prince of the East Palace tonight."
Lin Feng: "But I can't enter the palace!"
Jiang Sujin: "I know the Shen family has been packing up these past two days, so you can just lie and say that you are giving His Royal Highness the Crown Prince his childhood toys, and you also need to have His Royal Highness personally review them to prevent any omissions."
When His Royal Highness the Crown Prince hears that you are a servant of the Shen Mansion, he will naturally let you into the palace. Then you can deliver the letter to him.
Lin Feng: "I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince pleaded for you, but the Emperor was unmoved."
Jiang Sujin: "The more His Royal Highness the Crown Prince defends Shen Yanfeng, the more the Emperor will naturally resist."
"Your Highness is too anxious. I wrote a lot in the letter. You must tell Your Highness to read it carefully and burn it after reading it."
Lin Feng: "I obey your command!" After saying that, he hurriedly took the letter and left.
As Jiang Sujin expected, when those who were guarding the palace gate heard that the things belonged to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, they naturally hurried to put them down for Lin Feng.
When His Royal Highness the Crown Prince saw Lin Feng, he couldn't help but redden his eyes.
Lin Feng didn't dare to say more. He quickly took out the letter and handed it to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
When His Royal Highness the Crown Prince opened the letter and found that it was written in Er Niang's handwriting, he was so excited that tears came to his eyes.
After seeing the letter, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince quickly burned it.
He didn't dare say much to Lin Feng, but just gave him the palace badge.
After Lin Feng returned, he gave the badge to Jiang Sujin.
That night, Jiang Sujin slept particularly uneasily. She had a long dream, in which she saw Shen Yanfeng being beheaded.
The next morning, before daybreak, she asked her servants to bring her ginseng soup.
She had never liked drinking ginseng soup, but this morning she drank a big bowl of it for the first time.
Then she asked the servants to prepare the carriage, and then she put on men's clothes and got on the carriage.
She walked all the way to the front of the palace and took out her badge.
As soon as the guard at the gate saw the badge, he let her pass.
Jiang Sujin walked all the way to the Golden Throne Hall. Looking at the magnificent Golden Throne Hall, she felt her heart beating faster.
She took a deep breath and came to the door of the Golden Palace.
The guard stopped her and asked directly, "Who are you? How dare you trespass into the Golden Palace?"
"I, the young lady of the Shen family, would like to request to see the emperor."
The guard frowned when he heard this, then quickly went in to report.
When the guard reported in front of all the ministers that the young lady of the Shen family wanted to see her, everyone couldn't help but gasp.
Jiang Moting's eyes widened instantly. His daughter actually came to the outside of the Golden Palace. Wasn't she afraid that the emperor would kill her?
After hearing the guard's words, the emperor couldn't help but widen his eyes.
"What did you say?"
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince: "Grandfather, it is Young Madam Shen who wants to see you. It seems that Second Madam is not dead. Why don't you invite Young Madam in?"
"Um... it's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
After a while, Jiang Sujin walked into the Golden Palace
After seeing Jiang Sujin, everyone couldn't help but sigh. Some people even suspected that she was a ghost, and they were so scared that they couldn't help but tremble all over.
"This humble woman pays respect to His Majesty. Long live the Emperor."
Emperor: "Mrs. Shen is dead. How can you prove that you are Mrs. Shen?"
Before Jiang Sujin could speak, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said, "Grandfather, she is indeed the Second Mother."
The Emperor glanced at the Crown Prince and said in a cold voice, "Madam Shen, is trespassing into the palace a capital crime?"
Jiang Moting was so frightened when he heard this that he suddenly fell to his knees with a plop: "Your Majesty, please forgive me, Your Majesty, please have mercy!"
Jiang Sujin: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince once gave me a piece of beautiful jade. I took the jade and the palace servant let me go. So I did not trespass into the palace."
"The reason why I risked my life to see the emperor is mainly to ask the emperor to pardon Shen Yanfeng's death sentence. After all, I am not dead, so he can't be said to have deliberately killed his wife."
Upon hearing this, the emperor couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "But it is true that he deliberately hurt you. People like this should be executed immediately."
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince: "Grandfather, but now Second Mother is alive, which means that Lord Shen did not kill Second Mother."
"Grandfather has always taught me that the people of Dawei should obey the laws."
"Since Lord Shen has not caused any serious consequences, please pardon him, Grandfather Emperor!"
"It's just that the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped. Grandfather Emperor can dismiss him from office, exile him to a remote area, and punish him by not allowing him to enter the capital for the rest of his life."
It was the first time that the emperor saw the prince speak so appropriately, so he couldn't help but look at him.
"Lord Shen is a man of great martial arts skills. Do you think that if you don't allow him to enter the capital in this lifetime, he will really not enter the capital?"
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince: "No matter how powerful Lord Shen's martial arts are, he can't resist thousands of troops."
"Moreover, if Lord Shen really dared to disobey Grandfather, he would not be waiting to be beheaded now."
The Emperor heard this and looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. He suddenly couldn't help but smile: "My grandson didn't want Lord Shen to die, so he tried every way to plead for mercy. Little did he know that everything I did was for you."
His Royal Highness: "Grandfather has always taught me to be grateful and to be a gentleman. He also told me that if I want to maintain peace and stability in the country, I must use benevolent tactics and be a benevolent ruler."
"Although Lord Shen has a cruel and cruel personality, he has indeed protected his grandson for many years. This is why I have the opportunity to show my filial piety to my grandfather."
"I worship and respect my grandfather, and I am grateful to Lord Shen."
"He gave me a second life. Now I beg you to spare his life. This is how I repay Mr. Shen's kindness."
"People in the future will not call my grandson an ungrateful person who has done nothing but abandon his wealth."
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said very well, and the Emperor felt relieved after hearing it.
In addition, now that everyone has seen that Jiang Sujin is not dead, if he still insists on killing Shen Yanfeng, he will definitely be criticized in the future.
From then on, court officials no longer dared to work for him.
