A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min

Jiang Ziyan was speechless after being rebuked by Su Zhilan, "Crown Princess..."

Just as he opened his mouth, he saw Song Hongshen walking over from behind Su Zhilan.

"Is what the Crown Princess said wrong? Or does Empress Chen think that the servants of Guanju Palace can bully the Crown Princess?"

He walked steadily and stopped beside Su Zhilan.

The fierce aura oppressed Jiang Ziyan, forcing her to bow her head.

"Aunt Wan, you offended the Crown Princess, slap yourself in the face."

Aunt Wan naturally didn't dare to say anything more and knelt on the ground and slapped her face.

Jiang Ziyan listened to the sound of slaps from Aunt Wan beside her and the wailing of Jiang Shuyun on the other side, and felt that she had lost all her face in the Eastern Palace.

She stared at Song Hongshen, and after Aunt Wan slapped him ten times, she said, "Since these are all the affairs of the Eastern Palace, then I really have no right to interfere."

"let's go."

Su Zhilan and Song Hongshen didn't say a word and just watched Jiang Ziyan leave.

After Jiang Ziyan left the East Palace, Su Zhilan turned around and asked, "Is your Highness okay?"

She looked Song Hongshen up and down and saw that apart from his bad complexion, there was nothing unusual about him.

Song Hongshen reached out and gently stroked Su Zhilan's face, then took his hand back for a second. "It's all right now. Sorry to have made you worry."

Jiang Shuyun was lucky after all. He was still alive after being beaten with thirty boards.

Su Zhilan kept her word and decided to let the matter go and not pursue it any further.

Su Zhilan was not harsh on Jiang Shuyun when it came to food, clothing, and medical treatment.

I thought the matter was over, but who would have thought that three days later, General Fuguo and Marquis Jingyuan jointly submitted a memorial to impeach the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess.

Emperor Xuande didn't want to go to the morning court that day, but Jiang Ziyan coaxed him to go.

After entering the palace, General Zheng Jin knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, I want to impeach the Crown Prince."

Emperor Xuande was puzzled. Zheng Jin had just returned to Beijing from the western frontier. Why would he impeach the crown prince for no reason?

He remembered that there was a concubine in the Eastern Palace, who was the daughter of Zheng Jin.

"General Zheng, if you have anything to say, please stand up and speak."

Zheng Jin did not stand up, but instead knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, I have fought bravely outside for nothing but peace and prosperity for the Great Zhou."

"Even if I die on the battlefield, I will never complain."

Emperor Xuande didn't know what Zheng Jin meant, so why was he praising himself?

He then agreed dryly, "General Zheng is loyal, I know that, and so do all the ministers."

Zheng Jin continued, "What I didn't expect was that while I was protecting the Great Zhou, my daughter was being humiliated."

Emperor Xuande was even more surprised. "What do you mean, General Zheng? Although your daughter is the prince's concubine, she has also been crowned the Royal Jade Butterfly."

He thought that Zheng Jin was dissatisfied with his daughter's position, which was why he did this in the hall.

Unexpectedly, Zheng Jin said, "My daughter is not a concubine at all. Just because she is used to sword dancing at night, she has been confined by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince until now."

"Your Highness, if you had any consideration for the ancestors of our Zheng family who died on the battlefield, you shouldn't have humiliated my daughter like this."

"Your Majesty, please help my daughter."

Emperor Xuande didn't know that Zheng Nanqing was under house arrest, so he looked at Song Hongshen, "What's going on?"

Song Hongshen did not hide anything and talked about what happened that day.

Emperor Xuande lowered his head and pondered, not saying anything for a long time.

Sword dancing? Who would dance with a sword next to an unfamiliar Merlin on the day of entering the palace?

It was clear what Zheng Nanqing was thinking.

But the prince also thought that a few words of reprimand would be enough, and there was no need to confine the person to house arrest for half a year.

After a while, Emperor Xuande said, "I know what you said. Prince, go back and release the man."

Song Hongshen did not refute, "Yes, father."

Zheng Jin was stunned for a moment. Is this the end? The Crown Prince agreed?

He turned his head to look at Marquis Jingyuan and gave him a wink.

This was what they had discussed, to let the Crown Prince know that the concubines and royal ladies also had backers.

When the Crown Princess comes of age, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will consider today's events and will certainly be more compassionate to the daughters of these families.

Even if it's just for show, it's better than it is now.

Marquis Jingyuan walked to the center of the hall, knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, the Jiang family also requires your Majesty to make the decision."

Emperor Xuande saw Lord Jingyuan joining in the fun and said unhappily, "What happened to the Jiang family?"

Marquis Jingyuan said, "My niece's granddaughter is also a concubine of the Eastern Palace. She was almost beaten to death by the Crown Princess a few days ago."

"I accuse the Crown Princess of being jealous and vicious."

Emperor Xuande looked at Song Hongshen again. How come he had never heard of this? What was going on in the Eastern Palace?

Song Hongshen talked about the incident again, when Jiang Shuyun plotted against him that day.

Then he said in a cold voice: "The Crown Princess spared her life. This is already a leniency. It is a kind heart."

"The Jiang family is so ungrateful that they slander the Crown Princess. I suspect that the Jiang family has bad intentions."

Jingyuan Hou naturally knew what happened that day, but he said, "Your Highness, have you wronged Shu Yun? How could she dare to do such a thing?"

"Even if she really did something to Your Highness, I think that is human nature and can be forgiven."

"On the contrary, it was the Crown Princess who used this excuse to do such a heavy hand to Shu Yun. If she is not jealous, what is she?"

Marquis Jingyuan's move was tantamount to breaking off relations with the Crown Prince.

But there was nothing that could be done about it. Jiang Shuyun could not possibly be favored again. Jiang Ziyan also spread the word that there was no possibility of turning things around for the Jiang family, the Song family, and the crown prince.

In fact, the feud between the Song and Jiang families began when Jiang Ziyan competed for favor with a face that resembled the late queen.

It's just that the Jiang family is weak and has always been trying to repair its relationship with the Song family.

Song Hongshen sneered, "Unfair? Then do you want me to conduct a thorough investigation to see who is involved in this matter?"

"Don't regret it when the time comes, Marquis Jingyuan."

When Jingyuan Hou heard this, his expression froze, and he stopped looking at Song Hongshen. Instead, he knelt on the ground and cried bitterly, "Your Majesty, we are loyal to you and love our country, and we have worked hard. Although we dare not take credit for it, we are unwilling to be humiliated."

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince, behaved in this way. We, the subjects, do not accept it."

He thought it was time to make plans for his little grandson.

It's not certain who will sit in that seat.

Emperor Xuande thought that the prince was still young after all. The relationship between the former dynasty and the harem was complicated, and sometimes the harem had to be balanced first before the former dynasty could be stabilized.

Just like him, no matter how much he dotes on Concubine Chen, he will not let the other concubines lose face.

Therefore, Emperor Xuande, with the intention of teaching Song Hongshen, said: "The Crown Prince's action is indeed inappropriate. Whether it is the General of the State or the Marquis of Jingyuan, they are both loyal ministers and good generals who have made contributions to the country..."

Before Emperor Xuande could finish his words, he was interrupted by Song Hongshen.

"Father, I want to impeach the general who colluded with the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Revenue to seek personal gain without paying any salary."
