Chapter 201 Vomiting blood
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. It must be because the Empress is too deeply in love with you that she cannot accept you bringing Tang'er into the palace. The Ji family has no complaints about this and will follow the Emperor's arrangements!"
As Ji Bozhou spoke, he kowtowed heavily.
He had been watching this chaotic scene from the side and had already realized that the situation was becoming more and more dangerous.
We can’t anger the emperor, otherwise he will do something to make the Ji family even more uncomfortable!
The emperor couldn't help but look at Ji Bozhou deliberately.
Fortunately.
There is another wise person in the Ji family who knows how to respect him.
"Si Luan, from now on, you will be the one in charge of the Ji family." He walked over to Ji Bozhou and patted him on the shoulder. "Don't disappoint others like your eldest brother, your father, and your second sister."
After saying this, he took a deep look at Queen Ji who was sitting on the ground crying. He wanted to go up and help her up, but thinking of Jiang Aiqing's instructions, he finally held back.
Let's wait until she calms down before visiting her.
Thinking of this, the emperor glanced coldly at Ji Xiangli, who was quite unwilling to be subdued by Pei Fan. A sharp cold light flashed in his eyes: "Ji Xiangli, don't think I don't know what you wanted to do just now."
"Or, send Ji Tang to the palace, and the rest of you will never set foot in the palace again. Let me see the sincerity of your Ji family's submission."
"Or, right here, all of you in the Ji family will die without a burial place. After all, no monarch would like to be threatened all the time!"
After saying that, he took big strides and walked out resolutely.
Ji Xiangli swallowed his hatred, his face was as red as a piece of iron, and his back teeth bit his cheek stubbornly.
He saw Pei Fan laughing contemptuously beside him, and then slowly put away the dagger.
Ji Xiangli felt like blood was gushing out of every pore of his body with anger.
He hates it so much!
I came here today to ask Qingyan for an explanation, but now Pei Fan, the lackey who bullied my daughter, is not in trouble at all!
Instead, they lost another Tang'er.
And there is Jiang Muyao, the bastard who crosses the river and then destroys the bridge.
Given the current situation, where is there any place for the Ji family?!
Just thinking about this, Ji Xiangli felt that the hatred in his body was like a thousand-foot-high mountain spewing magma, which was about to explode in an instant, burning the sky and the earth to change color.
He stared at the emperor's back, trembling as if his whole body was burned by hundreds of angry flames.
Suddenly, there was a "puff" sound.
He actually vomited several mouthfuls of blood.
"father--"
Ji Bozhou was horrified and took a step forward to catch his falling body.
After vomiting a few mouthfuls of blood, Ji Xiangli seemed to have lost all his energy and spirit in an instant, and he looked like he had aged ten years.
It felt like a huge rock was pressing down on his chest, making it impossible for him to breathe.
Therefore, he could only raise his hand unwillingly and weakly call out: "Go back, go back to the mansion..."
Ji Bozhou responded quickly, "Yes, yes, father, please stop talking for now. Let's go back home!"
At this time, Empress Ji also stopped crying and ran towards Ji Xiangli in a panic: "Father, what's wrong with you? You can't get into trouble. Our Ji family..."
He choked and looked like he was about to cry again.
Ji Bozhou was worried that the situation would develop in a worse direction, so he hurriedly ordered his servants to support Ji Xiangli.
He ignored the slap that Empress Ji had just given him and solemnly pulled her to sit on the Phoenix throne, comforting her: "Sister, from the look on the Emperor's face today, he still has a lot of feelings for you. It's clear from his eyes that he still feels deeply sorry for you."
"But now, I don't think he really wants Tang'er to enter the palace. It's more like he wants to gain our family's submission."
Queen Ji was startled, and she wiped away her tears. She asked doubtfully, "Really?"
Now, she urgently needed to hear such words to prove that the emperor's feelings for her had not changed.
Ji Bozhou pondered for a moment, "He is the emperor after all. Perhaps it's because of my father and your attitude that he feels that our Ji family is spoiled and arrogant, and disrespectful to him. That's why he wants to take this opportunity to teach us a lesson!"
"Today, I'm afraid Tang'er will still have to enter the palace. As long as she comes and proves our Ji family's loyalty, the emperor will not embarrass us anymore..."
Empress Ji hesitated, "But Tang'er has entered the palace with a different identity this time..."
Ji Bozhou interrupted her, "Is there anything more important than the lives of everyone in our Ji family right now?"
Queen Ji choked.
Then Ji Bozhou said again: "And today, I feel that the emperor seems to be intentionally alienating the people of our Ji family..."
"Estrangement? Why?"
Ji Bozhou had some vague information in his mind, but it was so chaotic that he couldn't grasp it.
"I don't know. These are just my own feelings."
This reminded Queen Ji.
She couldn't help but feel puzzled.
The emperor's attitude today was very different from usual. Now that I think about it, there seemed to be many suspicious things.
It was like he was forcibly isolating himself from the Ji family and no longer wanting to interact with them...
Thinking of this, Queen Ji was suddenly startled.
Isolate yourself from the Ji family?
Does he want to keep a distance from the Ji family?
Thinking of the emperor's indifferent look today, Queen Ji felt a little complicated.
If this is the case, then the Ji family...
At this time, Ji Bozhou had already stood up: "Big sister, I'm glad you're okay. I won't be able to come to the palace to see you in the future. Take care of yourself from now on."
As he said this, he bowed deeply to Queen Ji.
She felt reluctant and heartbroken, and after a long time, she finally nodded reluctantly.
If Tang'er wants to enter the palace, then go ahead, but she needs to make careful plans afterwards...
……
Ji Qingyan's body had been carried out of Tianyi Gate by servants and was now waiting on the palace corridor.
Ji Xiangli vomited blood and felt weak and frail. Ji Bozhou held his hand, but it was ice-cold.
"Father, let's go home, go home, and please don't get angry anymore..."
He took advantage of the situation and whispered, "Son knows you are unwilling. But you should understand the situation today. Now is not the time for the Ji family..."
His throat rolled over: "I saw the emperor's expression today, and he clearly has murderous intentions. Today, as long as Tang'er can enter the palace smoothly without angering the emperor, and the rest of the Ji family can be safe and sound, it will be a great blessing..."
Ji Xiangli stammered and opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he just turned around and looked at Queen Ji for a long time.
His eyes were empty, and his red pupils were full of desolation, as if he was looking through time and recalling his past vigor and vitality.
His eyes were full of pain and helplessness.
In the end, he said nothing.
Ji Bozhou supported him and slowly walked out of the Kunning Palace.
The moment he stepped out of the door, he suddenly laughed out loud towards the sky.
No one knew what he was laughing at, but his smile seemed to contain sarcasm, unwillingness, frustration and loneliness.
Outside the palace gate.
A white silk had been hung on the Ji family's carriage, and Ji Qingyan's coffin followed behind the carriage.
When Ji Bozhou helped Ji Xiangli get into the car, he discovered that the carriage carrying He Yuanguang had been waiting in front of them for some time.
Therefore, he suppressed the discomfort in his heart and slowly walked towards the Ji family.
As soon as the Ji family's carriage left the palace, it attracted the attention and gossip of many people outside the palace.
"Oh my god, why is it the Ji family again?"
"Yes, look at the coffin behind the carriage. I wonder who died next?"
"No matter who died, the Ji family is not a good family! They even committed incest before."
"Have you forgotten that bastard Ji Cheng? He took away so much of the people's hard-earned money..."
Amid the pointing and gossiping of the people, the Ji family's carriage team completed the long journey with a thorn in their side.
All I heard was a "whoosh".
We have arrived at Ji Mansion.
At this moment, Ji Xiangli suddenly grabbed Ji Bozhou with his cloudy and sad eyes.
"Please invite someone to Qingyan's funeral! You must invite him!"
Ji Bozhou frowned slightly: "Father, who do you want to invite?"
"Come closer and listen..."
