Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

Chapter 392 Royal Temple

Zhou Jiangning was the most stubborn person. After hearing Prince Jian’s threatening words, her attitude became even stronger. She sneered coldly at Prince Jian and his wife, “The prince and princess know that they care about their children, so that’s okay. Are you treating other people's flesh and blood as nothing? There is only one male in my Zhou family, my brother. How could the Zhao family do such a sinister thing? If something happened to my brother, would the prince and princess ever do it? Have you considered my father’s situation?”

Zhou Jiangning is a person who hates evil. Zhao Yuan'er almost killed his biological brother. Zhou Jiangning was cruel and didn't want her to have a good time. Wouldn't it be too easy for her to return her to the palace and continue to live a life of fine clothes and fine food?

Zhou Jiangning said bitterly: "Humph! Our general's office will definitely not let her go so easily when dealing with such a vicious woman as Mrs. Zhao. She should be sent to the family temple to repent."

When Princess Jian saw that Zhou Jiangning was so stubborn and insisted on putting her daughter at a disadvantage, she was so angry that she lost her decency, pointed at Zhou Jiangning and cursed: "You keep saying that my daughter is a poisonous woman, how can you be so good yourself? You As a junior, you not only imprisoned and abused my mistress without permission, but also abused the servants around my daughter. Your cruel methods are simply outrageous. How can there be such a hard-hearted and cruel woman like you in the world? You are embarrassing me today. My daughter will definitely not end up well in the future!"

Zhou Yi has always loved and cared for the children he had given birth to earlier, especially his eldest daughter Zhou Jiangning, whom he regarded as the apple of his eye. Now seeing Princess Jianjun insulting his eldest daughter like this, Zhou Yi's face suddenly turned gloomy. Come down.

　　"Presumptuous!" he shouted sternly.

A general who has been on the battlefield for a long time became angry, and the terrifying momentum was not only the princess and Zhao Yuan'er, but also Prince Jian couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

Princess Jian was shocked by Zhou Yi's voice and did not dare to say a word. Prince Jian waited for a while and then said to Zhou Yi: "General Zhou is the head of the family. No matter how much we say this, it is not the turn of an outsider to marry." "Female intervention"

When Princess Jianjun proposed to take Zhao Yuan'er back to her home, Zhou Yi was going to agree. It was true that he hated Zhao Yuan'er for poisoning his flesh and blood, but Zhou Yi must be an upright man. Since he had abandoned Zhao Yuan'er, he did not He insisted on torturing a woman's thoughts, but Princess Jian's attitude towards his beloved daughter Zhou Jiangning made Zhou Yi very unhappy.

Without waiting for Prince Jian to finish his words, Zhou Yi waved his hands with a cold face and said: "Since Mrs. Zhao married into my general's palace according to the decree, she committed such a crime and should be dealt with by my general's palace. Just as my daughter said , send her to the family temple, and the matter will be settled."

Zhou Yi made the final decision and left after saying that.

In front of Prince Jian and his wife, Zhou Jiangning ordered the attendants on the left and right: "Now take this poisonous woman to the family temple and keep her under guard."

 Zhao Yuan'er held Princess Jian's hand and refused to submit. The attendants had Zhou Jiangning's life, and they didn't care about anything else, so they took her away forcefully.

Even though Prince Jian was from the royal family, he could not openly rob someone in the general's mansion, so he had to watch his daughter being dealt with by Zhou Jiangning.

Princess Jianjun completely lost her mind. She pointed at Zhou Jiangning with a livid face and cursed: "You vicious woman, I will not let you go. Let's just wait and see!"

When Prince Jian and his wife left the general's mansion, Princess Jian cried and said: "Yuan'er was escorted to the family temple by them. How can she survive? No! I have to go to the palace to find the Queen."

 Princess Jianjun and Empress Cao are cousins.

When King Jian heard that his wife wanted to ask Empress Cao to make the decision, he sighed slightly and said: "Yuan'er's marriage was originally proposed by Concubine Meng. Empress Cao and Concubine Meng have always been on the same page. Now Empress Cao has offended Your Majesty. She can't even protect herself, so I'm afraid she won't get involved in this matter, so why don't I ask the clan to come forward."

Princess Jianjun wiped away her tears and said: "Zhou Yi has done a great job in repelling the Xiongnu. Now is the time when things are hot. Those people in the clan are not worshiping the superiors and disobeying the inferiors. How could they offend Zhou Yi just to help us? I still want to Go and beg my cousin, she is a queen, and it is easy to intervene in these affairs of the back house. Even if she is unhappy now, she still has more weight than others."

Princess Jianjun loved her daughter so much that she made up her mind and went straight to the imperial city without even returning to the palace. Empress Cao fell from a high platform a while ago and her ankles were broken. Now she can only walk with help. In order to appease the eldest princess's thunderous anger, Emperor Ming deprived her of the power to control the palace. Now Empress Cao will Like an eagle with broken wings, it no longer has its former glory.

Although the three-month confinement period has passed, the world is still in a cold state. The nobles inside and outside the palace know that Cao has lost power, so they will still come to her. Therefore, the current Jiaofang Palace is no different from the cold palace.

Chao Houwei was sitting on the couch when he suddenly heard that Princess Jianjun asked for an audience. He couldn't help being surprised, so he called the person in.

Princess Jianjun entered the Jiaofang Palace. Seeing Empress Cao in such a state, she felt even more sad. She sighed and said, "When I was in my boudoir, I was like a phoenix among women. How dare those people neglect you like this."

Empress Cao smiled bitterly and said: "The world is so hot. They see that I have lost power, and they are eager to step in. But it is difficult for you, and they are willing to care about our sisterhood."

 I am asking for help because I have something to do.

When Princess Jian heard this, she held the handkerchief and tested the corners of her eyes, and then said bitterly: "Isn't it because of Concubine Meng that Your Majesty treats your empress so slowly? This woman is known to be vicious and flirtatious."

If Concubine Meng hadn't arranged the marriage, how could Zhao Yuan'er have married Zhou Yi, a widower, and she wouldn't have ended up in the situation she is in today.

 Princess Jian’s hatred for Concubine Meng was no less than that of Empress Cao.

Hearing this, Empress Cao sighed slightly and said, "I think my Cao family has been a prominent family for hundreds of years and has been a member of the family for generations. I am afraid that I and the prince will also be killed in the hands of this woman."

Princess Jianjun replied: "Your Majesty, you don't have to give up on yourself like this. With the power of the Cao family, you can't overthrow Concubine Meng and her son. I and your Majesty are direct cousins. As long as your Majesty gives orders, I and your Majesty will be willing to be driven by your Majesty." "

Prince Jian did not surrender to the crown prince, but he did not support King Jin either. Instead, he remained neutral. Empress Cao was a shrewd person. Seeing that Princess Jian surrendered when she lost power, she knew that she must have something to hide.

Empress Cao looked at Princess Jianjun and replied slowly: "If my cousin can persuade the prince to help the prince, I will naturally be grateful."

Seeing Princess Jian's expression change slightly, Empress Cao continued, "Sister, I came to see you. Is there anything wrong?"

 Princess Jianjun then told Empress Cao everything about Zhao Yuan'er.

Although Empress Cao has temporarily lost power, she is still the mother of a country and is still capable of handling such matters.

After listening to Princess Jian's cry, she replied: "Yuan'er made such a mistake, and Zhou Yi is very popular. If you disobey the Zhou family and insist on taking Yuan'er back to your home, it may be difficult, but I can help." You are trying to deal with it, why not send Yuan'er to the royal temple in the name of meditation first, and then make plans later."
