Chapter 107 Grievance
Hearing the familiar crying voice, Jiang Yunxi lifted the curtain of the car and saw the person lying on the horse. He had a bad feeling.
Jiang Yunxi looked up at Lian'er and Neiguan Song who were chasing after him, and immediately understood who the woman in front of him was.
She immediately bent down to help Zhao Ya.
"Ya'er, get up first. Get in the carriage first." Jiang Yunxi put his cloak on Zhao Ya and helped her get in the carriage.
It was inconvenient for Zhao Changyu to sit in the car, so he sat outside and drove the carriage.
Zhao Ya leaned into Jiang Yunxi's arms, sobbing, "I don't want to go back to the princess's mansion, I want to go back to the palace."
Jiang Yunxi responded and patted Zhao Ya's back gently, "Okay, okay... let's go back to the palace."
"Uncle, let's go back to the palace." Jiang Yunxi said to Zhao Changyu through the car curtain.
After hearing this, Zhao Changyu nodded and said, "Okay."
"Your Highness Prince An, Princess. It is my fault that I failed in my duty." The eunuch Sun, who was out of breath, ran to Zhao Changyu and saluted him.
Zhao Changyu just glanced at him calmly without saying anything.
Jiang Yunxi's voice came sternly, "Eunuch Song, I will take the princess back to the palace first, can you follow behind? There is no need to explain in front of me, wait until you go to the Queen to explain."
Neiguan Song bowed towards the carriage and said, "Yes, Princess."
Zhao Changyu raised his hand and pulled the reins, and the horse ran obediently.
The guards at the gate knew that this was Jiang Yunxi's carriage and did not dare to stop it, so they let the carriage drive directly to the front of Kunning Palace.
Jiang Yunxi helped Zhao Ya get out of the car.
With the help of Jiang Yunxi, Zhao Ya walked step by step to the bedroom of Queen Meng Jingshu.
Meng Jingshu saw Zhao Ya's extremely embarrassed look, and her eyes were full of distress. "Ya'er, what happened to you?"
Zhao Ya threw herself into Meng Jingshu's arms and cried, "I don't want to go back to the princess's mansion. I want to live in the palace. I never want to go back to the princess's mansion again..."
Seeing that Zhao Ya was getting emotional, Meng Jingshu knew that she couldn't get anything out of her, so she looked up at Jiang Yunxi.
Jiang Yunxi knelt down towards Meng Jingshu, frowning, "When I passed by the princess's mansion, I wanted to visit the princess. But the princess suddenly rushed out, and I didn't know what happened, so I brought her back as she requested. Neiguan Song was also on the way, and I think he knows the details best."
Meng Jingshu nodded lightly.
Neiguan Song rushed over and knelt down in front of Meng Jingshu without even having time to smooth out the wrinkles on his clothes.
Jiang Yunxi knew that this was Zhao Ya's family affair, so she stood up and was about to leave.
"Yun Xi, you should stay too." Meng Jingshu said.
Jiang Yunxi responded and sat back in his seat.
She was a little confused and didn't know why Meng Jingshu wanted to keep her.
Could it be that Meng Jingshu felt that Zhao Ya’s misfortune was related to her, so she deliberately took her out?
Her eyes fell on Neiguan Song.
"The princess was wronged. On the night of the wedding, the prince consort only stayed in the princess's bedroom for two quarters of an hour, then quarreled with the princess and did not stay with the princess to rest that night. He did not go to the princess's room again. Instead, he slept with all the maids brought from the palace. The princess endured all these things."
"Today, he actually forced himself on the princess in the courtyard and made the servants watch him being intimate with the princess. He wanted to humiliate the princess. The princess collapsed and fled from the mansion." There was some reluctance in Neiguan Song's tone.
Jiang Yunxi didn't expect Zhao Ya to be humiliated like this, and was shocked.
Zhao Ya felt too embarrassed to face anyone and hid behind Meng Jingshu.
"What are you doing? I told you to take care of the princess's mansion, and you just watch it coldly?" Meng Jingshu was furious, her eyes full of murderous intent.
Neiguan Song kowtowed desperately, "It's unfair, Queen. It was the mother-in-law of the Sun family who came with the prince consort, saying that she wanted to talk to the princess and asked us to go out. The princess also asked us to go out. We heard the princess' cry for help outside and immediately went to rescue her. That's how she escaped."
Jiang Yunxi thought, "This Sun family is really terrible. Like mother, like son. They are all corrupt people."
Zhenzhen showed an expression of disbelief on her face.
"You go and receive forty strokes of the cane. The other eunuchs in the princess's mansion will each receive forty strokes of the cane according to their rank, and be fined half a year's salary. I want to see who dares to slack off?!" Meng Jingshu gave a direct death order.
If he was beaten with forty boards, someone with a weak body would probably die.
Neiguan Song did not dare to beg for mercy and allowed the palace servants from the Ministry of Punishment to drag him away.
Jiang Yunxi became more and more certain that Meng Jingshu had blamed the mistake on her.
The punishment of Nei Guan Song was done on purpose to show her.
Kill the chicken to scare the monkey.
Jiang Yunxi didn't say anything.
She knew that if she opened her mouth to defend herself at this time, she would only add fuel to the fire.
"Then what should we do with the Sun family?" Nanny Song felt sorry for her nephews and nephews, and wanted the Queen to shift her attention to the Sun family.
"Call Sun Jian and his mother into the palace. I want to see them. They are humiliating my daughter like this. Do they not take me seriously? Do they not take His Majesty seriously?" Meng Jingshu hugged Zhao Ya with red eyes.
Zhao Changyu walked in at this time and bowed to Meng Jingshu, "Greetings, Queen."
Jiang Yunxi opened his eyes wide and looked at Zhao Changyu, communicating with him through his eyes, "What are you doing here?"
Zhao Changyu didn't answer her and sat next to her.
"Your Majesty, the princess must be frightened. Let her go to the back hall to rest." Zhao Changyu said.
Meng Jingshu nodded and ordered the servants to help Zhao Ya away.
Zhao Changyu then spoke calmly, "A few days ago, I saw the eldest prince and his wife getting along very well in a teahouse. I don't know whether I should tell her or not, but I think it's better to tell the emperor's sister-in-law."
Jiang Yunxi's gaze fell on Zhao Changyu, his eyes full of disbelief.
"Why are you saying this?" Jiang Yunxi desperately winked at Zhao Changyu.
Meng Jingshu rolled her eyes and said, "Thank you, Prince An, for telling me."
Zhao Changyu smiled faintly, "I wonder how long the Queen will keep Yunxi? My mother urged me to take her back."
Meng Jingshu glanced at Jiang Yunxi and said, "Princess, please go."
Jiang Yunxi agreed and left.
She looked back and saw that Zhao Changyu had caught up with her, then she walked forward with confidence.
When she saw the carriage still parked at the gate of Kunning Palace, she knew that Zhao Changyu had been waiting here and had not left at all.
The so-called "Empress Dowager urged her to go back" was completely made up by Zhao Changyu.
