Jiang Mubai entered the palace for an audience with the Emperor first.
He had not returned for two or three years, stationed in the northwest border, resisting the harassment of the Turks from time to time.
It can be said that with Jiang Mubai’s presence, the Great Sheng Dynasty maintained a decade of peace and stability.
With this stability, the Great Sheng Dynasty could develop its prosperous nation.
Whether for the state or the Imperial Court, Jiang Mubai deserves praise for his hard work and great achievements.
The Emperor has always been courteous to him.
This time he returned, it was unreasonable for him not to have an audience with the Emperor immediately.
But the Emperor did not blame him with even a word.
He was much more polite to Jiang Ruobai.
“Mubai, I really miss you,” the Emperor even got up to greet him, laughing and waving with a smile on his face, “Give him a seat quickly.”
A eunuch brought in a chair.
Jiang Mubai laughed and said, “Your Majesty is overwhelming me, I beg for Your Majesty’s forgiveness.”
“What sins does Mubai have?”
“I, your humble servant, should have come to the palace to see Your Majesty immediately upon my return to report my duties. But on the way, I heard that a child from my family had had an accident, so I hurried home first, in anxiety…” “This is human nature; what sin could there be?” The Emperor waved his hand and then asked with concern, “How is Ningning doing?”
“I went to see her, and she was lying in bed, her little face so pale it was unrecognizable, crying and complaining of leg pain,” Jiang Mubai sighed and shook his head,
“She and her mother both cried, alas.”
Hearing that Lin Zizi was also crying, the Emperor frowned, “Was she hurt so badly?”
“Such a weak little girl, she got hurt, then was locked up and endured a night of suffering. It’s a miracle she’s alive. I’m afraid in the future…”
“I’ll send the Imperial Physician to see her.”
“Her legs’ bones were broken, so it’s useless for the Imperial Physician to see her.”
The Emperor responded, “Indeed, these Imperial Physicians are incompetent. It’s useless to have them tend to the Crown Prince either.” “Crown Prince’s body is strong, should be no problem, right?”
“It’s hard to say,” the Emperor sighed.
He didn’t tell the truth about the Imperial Physician’s diagnosis.
Now that Li Jixian is still the Crown Prince, if the news of the Crown Prince becoming a cripple for the rest of his life gets out… it will inevitably cause turmoil in the Imperial Court.
The Emperor still wishes to keep it a secret, avoiding making the matter worse.
While the lord and servant were sighing and lamenting, a eunuch reported that Prime Minister Jiang had arrived.
Jiang Ruobai, dressed in a red official’s robe, entered with a furrowed brow and a slightly worried expression.
The two brothers looked at each other.
Jiang Ruobai rolled his eyes and kneeled down to greet the Emperor, “Your servant Jiang Ruobai greets Your Majesty.”
Now, the Emperor was somewhat displeased when he saw Jiang Ruobai.
At that time in the East Palace, if it hadn’t been for him dragging the Emperor, the Crown Prince might not have been injured so badly.
But, then again, given the way the fifth prince was acting, Jiang Ruobai’s call for protection wasn’t too much to ask for…
In summary, the Emperor is quite annoyed with Jiang Ruobai right now, seeing him come in, he snorted, implying “How dare you show your face here?”
Not waiting for the Emperor to speak, Jiang Ruobai stood up and said, “My daughter was badly injured!”
Emperor:”???”
“If my daughter can’t survive, the Prince of Yu will be heartbroken,” Jiang Ruobai continued.
“… Prime Minister Jiang, you’re overreacting. The Princess Consort of Yu’s injuries shouldn’t be life-threatening.”
Jiang Mubai interjected, “The Crown Prince’s injuries are even worse.”
Jiang Ruobai looked at him, “Then, General, may I ask who started the fight? Did my daughter go to the East Palace first? My daughter kindly escorted the emperor’s eldest grandson back to the palace, and instead of sending someone to protect her from the palace, she was taken away by people from the East Palace?”
