Chapter 937 The stepmother of the gloomy villain (7)
The emperor's eyes curiously looked at Shi Jiang and Huo Jingzhou.
Since entering the palace just now, Shi Jiang has been talking loudly.
The emperor narrowed his eyes, pointed at Huo Jingzhou and said.
"Prince Jinghai, I ask you, are the things your mother said true?"
Huo Jingzhou knelt on the ground, originally listening to the conversation between the emperor and his stepmother, but now that he heard the emperor asking him, his heart suddenly shivered, and he knelt on the ground respectfully and replied.
"Your Majesty, everything my mother said is true. However, I would like to ask your Majesty to leave a way for them to survive. After all, my father is gone in the Huo family now, and they can be regarded as some of my closest relatives!"
After Huo Jingzhou finished speaking, he bowed deeply to the emperor.
Hearing Huo Jingzhou's words, the emperor raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that the Jinghai Prince was so soft-hearted. No wonder Huo Wei's useless brothers dared to come to his door.
Thinking of Huo Wei dying in battle and Huo Jingzhou losing his father at a young age, he felt a pity in his heart.
"Okay, I know this, you all should get up and go back!"
The emperor waved his hand casually, not wanting to ask any more questions, and simply asked Shi Jiang and the others to leave.
After hearing the emperor's words, Shi Jiang didn't care that the other party didn't issue an order, but obediently took his brother out with him.
When he got outside and saw no one around, Huo Jingzhou frowned and asked.
"Mother, if the emperor does not issue the edict, when we go back, should we release the second uncle and the third uncle? Or should we continue to lock them up?"
When Shi Jiang heard Huo Jingzhou's question, he replied directly.
"Why keep them? We have to feed them with rice. Now that your father is gone, his salary will definitely be gone as well. Our family will save as much expenses as we can in the future."
Hearing Shi Jiang's serious reply, Huo Jingzhou suddenly fell into deep thought. If his mother said this, could it be that the family is already living beyond its means?
Shi Jiang ran away quickly with Huo Jingzhou and came back quickly.
Shi Jiang didn't take it seriously that the emperor didn't give her an imperial edict. What she wanted to do now was to use the emperor's name to scare these brainless people!
As soon as he entered the room, he pointed directly at Huo Gang and Huo Ren, who were still tied up.
"I have told the emperor about the evil deeds of the two of you, and the emperor is very angry. However, I see that you and the Marquis are brothers by blood, so I will only throw you out of the house. From now on, Jinghai
The Marquis Mansion does not welcome you back."
After Shi Jiang finished speaking, he called to his servants, lifted them up, opened the corner door, and threw them out.
The four people were thrown out, and they fell to the ground like dumplings.
Liu and Wang, who were originally fainted by the smoke, were hurt by the fall, and then woke up faintly.
After finally breaking free from the rope and taking out the sweat towel from their mouths, the four of them quickly wiped the soles of their feet with oil.
Regarding Shi Jiang's words about knowing mistakes and being able to correct them, I thought she was joking.
The emperor is angry, how can they end well?
They finally figured it out. They originally thought that Shi Jiang was a delicate white lotus, but now she was like an iron plate. They wanted to dig out a penny of Jinghaihou Mansion from the hands of this iron plate.
, that is simply a foolish dream.
Therefore, when the emperor actually issued an order to praise the Jinghaihou Mansion, Shi Jiang discovered that Huo Gang and Huo Ren had already run away with their families!
Of course, this is all for later.
After throwing the person out, Shi Jiang slammed the door, and then followed Huo Jingzhou to squat quietly in front of the mourning hall, waiting for the guests to express their condolences.
This time Shi Jiang ran to the palace in tears to ask for His Majesty's favor, which had already filled the ears of the guests.
In their opinion, Shi Jiang's behavior was really inappropriate.
Especially those who were related by marriage to the Liu family and the Wang family, when they saw Huo Gang and others being thrown out, they all thought that Shi Jiang's behavior was inappropriate.
However, they did not dare to make irresponsible remarks in front of Shi Jiang. After all, Shi Jiang was such a tough guy, and if she sued her again, the gain would outweigh the loss.
Shi Jiang and Huo Jingzhou stayed in the mourning hall for two days and two nights, and then the old lady slowly woke up.
However, there is not much difference between waking up and not waking up, because the old lady had a stroke.
He was lying on the bed and couldn't open his mouth. When he opened it, saliva flowed from the corners of his mouth.
Originally, Jiang was still thinking that if the old lady could be cured of her illness, all matters in the house would be left to the old lady to handle.
Unexpectedly, she would be like this now, so she could only bite the bullet and continue to bear it.
Because of what Huo Gang and the others did to Jinghaihou Mansion, Butler Huo was a little embarrassed compared to Shi Jiang, who was always looked down upon by the manor!
Therefore, in the past two days, Butler Huo simply obeyed his wife's words.
With Butler Huo taking the lead, and Shi Jiang's previous killing of chickens in her yard to scare monkeys, the servants and women in her yard were so frightened that they didn't dare to do anything.
Hong Luan, on the other hand, was very happy when the old lady woke up.
But then we found out that the old lady had suffered a stroke and was in bed, unable to speak or move her hands.
The middle feeder that was originally held in the old lady's hand was finally taken away by the man from Qixiayuan.
Hong Luan felt suffocated at the thought of having to report to Shi Jiang and get a token when he went out.
She tried several times to get close to the prince and tell him about Qixiayuan's evil plan, but she never found the opportunity.
After finally arranging Huo Wei's funeral, even though Shi Jiang had washed his body with elixirs, he still lost a lot of weight.
As soon as I returned to Qixiayuan, I lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
Shi Jiang fell asleep in one breath and woke up full of energy all day and night.
Qingxia helped her up, and when she helped Shijiang comb her hair, she stopped talking.
"If you have something to say, just say it, don't hesitate."
Shi Jiang casually picked up a butterfly hairpin and inserted it directly into his bun. After looking at Qingxia, he said casually.
"Madam, Hongxia is still locked up in the woodshed. I don't know what to do with her?"
Qingxia hurriedly replied that although Hongxia had been fighting to show off in front of Madam, they were sisters after all. Qingxia hoped that Madam would give Hongxia another chance in view of the master-servant relationship for so many years.
.
After hearing Qingxia's words, Shi Jiang remembered that Hongxia was still in the house!
He immediately frowned and said with some confusion.
"Hey, why is she still in the house? Didn't I tell you to sell her out earlier?"
Speaking of this, Shi Jiang directly asked Qingxia to call Ren Yazi, and sold Hongxia without asking for much money.
After being locked up in the woodshed for so long, Hongxia thought Madam wanted her to die!
Unexpectedly, she was just sold out, and Hongxia's face was filled with tears.
I don’t know if it’s luck or misfortune, but at least I’m still alive.
Seeing Hongxia being taken away by Yazi, Qingxia felt sad in her heart.
