Chapter 297 Not a Family
Chapter 297 Not a Family
Jiang Qi looked at Jiang Jin, who stood up from the wheelchair after being provoked by him, and a sinister smile flashed in his eyes, as if his plan had succeeded.
"Father, regardless of whether Sixth Brother's legs were healed by your sister-in-law or not, according to Miss Xu, they had shown improvement over two years ago. Yet, Sixth Brother and your sister-in-law kept the truth secret and kept it a secret, clearly showing their disregard for your majesty."
Mu Jiaojiao felt helpless when she heard Jiang Qi talk about deceiving the emperor in everything. The doctor was a good doctor and cured a patient. What was wrong with the patient not wanting others to know about his condition for the time being?
Although her man did hide the fact that his legs were not disabled, Jiang Jin was hit by the Seventh Reincarnation at that time and his body was very weak. He gasped for breath after every three steps and was no different from a disabled person.
So Mu Jiaojiao, who stood in the hall and listened for a while, couldn't help but spoke in a calm tone and powerful words.
"Fourth brother, your words are not correct. Although my sister-in-law knows some medical knowledge, when she treated my husband, she could not guarantee that his legs would be completely healed. After all, it was a hidden disease left over from the battlefield, and it would take a long time to heal.
If I had rashly reported the situation to Father from the beginning, causing him to be overjoyed, wouldn't Fourth Brother then accuse my husband of being reckless and misrepresenting the facts?"
Jiang Qi's face darkened when he heard this. He didn't expect that even at this point, Jiang Jin and his wife were still so calm and composed, and so eloquent.
Emperor Xuanhe was sitting at the top watching both sides arguing with each other, but he didn't say anything. In fact, he had a basic understanding of Jiang Jin's leg disease. According to the imperial physician at the time, even if His Royal Highness Prince Jin's leg disease was fake, the Seven Revolutions Reincarnation poison that Jiang Jin was infected with would have drained Jiang Jin's body, forcing him to be so weak that he had to spend every day in a wheelchair.
Now that Jiang Jin was able to stand up from his wheelchair and argued in the Golden Palace for a while, and seemed to be in good health, he guessed that the poison in Jiang Jin might have been cured.
As for the person who can detoxify, it is either He Zhouyun or Mu Jiaojiao in front of him. Based on previous situations, the possibility of Mu Jiaojiao is 80 to 90%. This shows that Mu Jiaojiao's medical skills, which he had misjudged before, are really good.
Thinking of this, he remembered what Mu Jiaojiao told him last night, that the poisonous insect in his body was only temporarily suppressed and not completely eliminated. It seemed that he would have to rely more on this daughter-in-law in the future, so he spoke with a relatively gentle expression on his face.
"Well, Huaizhi's leg disease can be cured, which is great news. This matter is also excusable. There is no need to say more!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present understood that Emperor Xuanhe was not going to pursue the matter any further.
Jiang Qi's face froze. He didn't expect that Emperor Xuan He, who wanted to kill Jiang Jin so much many years ago, would actually favor Jiang Jin today!
But he instantly regained his composure, and then put on a faint smile, "Father is right. My sixth brother's leg disease has been cured. It is a blessing for Dayu. I am sure that if the news spreads, all the people who have been protected by my sixth brother will be happy!"
"I was a bit anxious earlier. Thinking that the emperor had been deceived, I believed that Sixth Brother's actions were unintentional. Therefore, I believe it is understandable. Fourth Brother apologizes to Sixth Brother and his wife."
Jiang Qi was also eloquent. He understood what Xuan Hedi meant and immediately changed his words. After openly and secretly putting eye drops in Jiang Jin's eyes, he could immediately put on a stern face and apologize to Jiang Jin and Mu Jiaojiao.
This action also made Mu Jiaojiao stunned. At this moment, she finally understood why Jiang Jin was so shameless in his daily life!
They are all passed down from the Jiang royal family!
"Fourth brother, you are too serious. These are trivial matters between brothers. As a family, there is no need to worry about them."
After watching Jiang Qi's actions, Jiang Jin's expression softened a bit. He didn't seem to realize that his previous words were full of divisiveness. Instead, he stood in the hall and spoke politely, creating a warm scene of brotherly love and respect.
"Since Sixth Brother can think this way, Fourth Brother will feel relieved!"
After hearing what Jiang Jin said, Jiang Qi felt a little surprised. He didn't believe that Jiang Jin was so easy to talk to, but his face showed an impeccable look of relief.
Emperor Xuanhe looked at his two graceful sons in the hall, maintaining superficial harmony, but his mind was filled with unpredictable thoughts. His sons had all grown up!
Seeing this, the court officials also flattered him, "Prince Qi and Prince Jin are really broad-minded!"
"Yes, now that Prince Jin's leg has healed, he can still lead his troops into battle and shock everyone. This is truly cause for celebration!"
"..."
At this moment, the smile on Jiang Jin's face suddenly disappeared, and his narrow eyes suddenly revealed a bit of coldness, and the words he said were also intriguing.
"However, if we are not a family, we can't just let it go like this."
When the others heard this, no one reacted. Prince Zhan Jiang Xuanyi and Jiang Qi, who came in with their private guards and the Imperial Guards, both froze.
Jiang Qi thought about many things in his mind, and he was a little scared. Could it be that the matter was exposed?
Then he thought, no, there are not many people who know about this, the rest were killed by his mother, Jiang Jin could not possibly know about it, and even if he knew, there is no evidence, so he suppressed those uneasy emotions and spoke in a tentative tone.
"Why do you say that, Sixth Brother? This prince and Fourth Brother are family."
Jiang Jin looked at Jiang Qi's face which was obviously testing him, but he did not respond to him. Instead, he spoke to Xuan Hedi who was sitting at the top of the table and had the same puzzled look on his face.
"Father, I have recently learned a secret. I have been tossing and turning all night and have been unable to sleep. I want to report it to you."
Jiang Jin repeated to Xuan Hedi exactly what Jiang Qi had just said when he was about to expose the fact that his legs were fake. Mu Jiaojiao's lips curled up and her eyes were full of smiles when she heard it.
My man is really not very magnanimous. He will take revenge on the spot if he has any grudge!
Emperor Xuan He looked at Jiang Jin, whose expression suddenly showed a hint of amusement, and Jiang Qi, who looked a little uneasy, and he naturally saw through that the fourth brother probably had some leverage in the hands of the sixth brother.
However, comparing the two reactions, the one he feared the most, Lao Liu, was the better one, which made him feel a little disappointed in Jiang Qi.
He sighed in his heart. Among so many sons, the sixth son Jiang Jin, who had not been close to him since the queen's death, was the most intelligent.
"What's bothering you so much?"
However, he still asked Jiang Jin in the hall with a calm expression. His life now depended on Mu Jiaojiao's help. Even if he had many other ideas, he had to listen patiently.
"I recently learned by chance that Jiang Qi is not of my father's bloodline, and there is suspicion that the royal bloodline has been mixed up."
"Wow~"
The court officials were all shocked. Why did these things happen one after another today?
