Chapter 419 Demotion
This person is very dangerous. If Chen Yuan takes him with him, Jiang Yue is afraid that he will do something bad to Chen Yuan.
After all, one is in the light and the other is in the dark.
"What a joke! Do you think I'm like you, only interested in pleasure?" Ding Ping didn't want to stay in the capital at all. Looking at Jiang Yue again, he became flustered.
He stepped back, away from Jiang Yue.
"Even if you are favored by His Majesty, I am originally a soldier at the border, and I should return to the border."
"Young General, I am not your subordinate!"
Unexpectedly, Chen Yuan said without thinking:
"Okay!" Chen Yuan stepped forward and patted Jiang Yue on the shoulder.
"I leave it to you!" It just so happened that he really disliked this person.
"General Chen, I am a captain appointed by His Majesty himself. You have no right to decide whether I stay or go!" Ding Ping was anxious.
However, Chen Yuan seemed not to hear and said to Jiang Yue,
"Farewell!"
He rode away lightly, taking with him more than a hundred elite soldiers and fuel.
Ding Ping, who was about to leave with Chen Yuan, had already been controlled by Wu Fei and his three companions.
"Get out of the way!" Ding Ping was angry and waved his gun to force his way in, but the next moment, Jiang Yue put a gun to his chest.
"Captain Ding, how dare you act rashly in front of this general!"
Ding Ping was furious, and he thrust his spear directly into Jiang Yue's chest.
"The young general is going too far and doesn't even allow us to resist!"
"When has this general ever deceived you?"
Jiang Yue's gun fired again and again. Ding Ping was unable to block it and his body tilted to the side. The next moment, he fell heavily to the ground with a bang.
His face was filled with anger.
"Isn't this going too far?"
He wanted to climb up, but Jiang Yue's spear was already against his neck, and his teeth were about to be broken by him.
"General, I just stopped you from entering the city last time, and you took revenge on me! General, you are so arrogant, aren't you afraid of His Majesty's blame?"
"General Chen has the final say on whether you stay or go. If Captain Ding is dissatisfied, he can go to see His Majesty!" Jiang Yue is not a narrow-minded person, but he will never tolerate such villains.
As she spoke, she shot Ding Ping in the neck.
Ding Ping was shocked, and there seemed to be a red line on his throat, which was very eye-catching.
"Even if this general really seeks revenge, what can you do?"
Then, Jiang Yue's gun pointed at Ding Ping's heart again.
"Take him away and give him twenty military sticks!"
"Ding Ping, regardless of rank, will be demoted to a lowly soldier from today!"
In an instant, Ding Ping's face turned pale.
"Why? I am a captain appointed by His Majesty himself!"
He gritted his teeth, thinking that when Grand Tutor Mu was reinstated, he would make his cousin avenge him today.
At this moment, he had already been dragged away by Chu Mo and Chen Yong to be punished with military sticks.
He still expressed his dissatisfaction and was thinking about complaining to His Majesty.
"Do you deserve to demote me... Jiang Yue, you can't take revenge on someone else... You are such a mean person..."
Just then, Zhao Chongzheng's bodyguard, Zhou Jian, came jogging.
"General, our Highness invites you!"
"What does the Fourth Prince want me to do?" Jiang Yue was just about to allocate troops, but the Fourth Prince came looking for her, so she had to go.
Passing by Zeng's mansion, in just one or two days, the mansion, which was originally bustling with people, became deserted.
Jiang Yue approached but did not look over.
She was thinking that Zeng Guangren had a long-term plan and simply detaining him would not be enough to eradicate him completely.
What she is most worried about now is that those people from Beiyan will suddenly appear.
Therefore, she had proposed to His Majesty at the morning court today to strengthen the security of each city and to deal with any unusual movements in a timely manner to avoid future troubles.
What she was most worried about was that the Northern Yan royal family would harm Princess Xining.
Although Princess Xining would be arriving soon and they could have taken action long ago, she was still afraid.
"Little General." Suddenly, a crisp and delicate voice like the sound of nature was heard. Jiang Yue knew without looking back that it was Zeng Xueer.
Behind them, Wu Fei and the other three had experienced what happened last time, so they were always on guard.
The guard Zhou Jian had already reached for his sword with his right hand.
It was all because of this woman that His Highness suffered such misfortune.
Jiang Yue walked straight ahead without even turning her head.
But Zeng Xueer just trotted over and blocked her way.
"Little General, Daddy is in prison, and Sister has been banished to the cold palace. Xue'er is so scared. Can you accompany Xue'er?"
She looked at Jiang Yue with pitiful eyes and was about to pull her sleeve.
Jiang Yue stepped back, unmoved.
"Miss Xue'er, men and women should not touch each other."
"Little General." Zeng Xueer's tears fell. She really didn't understand why her father was framed and accused of treason.
Why did my sister want to frame His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?
For so many years, she has been just a pawn of her father.
Likewise, she resented Jiang Yue because her father's imprisonment and her sister's loss of power were all related to her.
However, she begged everyone today, and everyone openly avoided her.
Her former little sisters also spoke harshly to her.
After thinking for a while, she felt that there was only one person who could help her, and that was the Fourth Prince. But just as she walked out, she ran into Jiang Yue.
Seeing Jiang Yuefengcai again, she couldn't contain her inner emotions and found that she had completely fallen in love with this young general who was three years younger than herself without knowing when.
Seeing that Jiang Yue had gone far away, she ran towards her again.
"Little General, Daddy and sister were both wrongly accused."
That’s right, in her opinion, both her father and sister were wronged.
Daddy just wanted to pave the way for my sister, so he wanted to frame the Fourth Prince and the young general and create obstacles at every level.
Not only Jiang Yue and others did not expect this, she also did not expect Zeng Wan'er to frame her own son.
"Your Majesty will make the final decision on whether someone has been wronged or not. If Miss Xueer wants to overturn the verdict, she should go and ask His Majesty." Jiang Yue's expression was indifferent, and her words were even colder.
After saying this, she quickened her pace.
Zeng Wan'er burst into tears, not understanding why things had turned out like this in just two days.
Mu Chengfeng was also confused like her.
On the contrary, he knew clearly that his father had kept assassins in captivity and used them for Zeng Guangren's benefit.
I just don't understand why my father, who has always been timid and cowardly, became a traitor.
He knew exactly what his father had done, but knew nothing about Zeng Guangren. At this moment, he was thinking about how to save his father and clear his name.
Jiang Yue and the others walked at a fast pace and soon reached the Fourth Prince's residence.
In the Fourth Prince's mansion, there was singing and dancing, and things had returned to normal.
Zhao Chongzheng was finally ordered to be released by His Majesty.
When others are in high spirits upon seeing happy events, the first thing they do is to go back home and get rid of the bad luck.
After taking a bath, he did not go to the palace to express his gratitude immediately, but slept well for a day and a night.
Early this morning, he was thinking about inviting Jiang Yue to a banquet. After all, if it weren't for Jiang Yue, it would not be easy for him to get out of prison.
This was Jiang Yue’s first time visiting the Fourth Prince’s residence.
When the Fourth Prince's butler saw that it was Zhou Jian who invited the young general, his face was full of smiles:
"The young general is here. Your Highness has been waiting for a long time. Please come in."
Jiang Yue nodded and went inside. Zhao Chongzheng had already come to greet her personally.
"Young General, I'm really afraid that I can't invite you. Your presence will bring honor to my humble abode."
His eyes fell on the butler behind him.
"Tell the kitchen to start preparing. Your Highness will definitely treat the young general to a good feast today."
