Chapter 747, Farewell

In Beijing, there never seemed to be an end to the fresh topics of gossip. Last month, everyone was discussing the imperial edict that arranged the marriage between Xiao Yeyang and the Countess of Shengping; this month, it was all about the misfortune of the Jiang Family and the closing case of the Eight Princes Party.

"It's truly rare to see the Jiang Family take a fall."

"Isn't it? First, the Jiang Family's eldest legitimate grandson, Jiang Jinghui, failed to protect the tribute, causing several ships loaded with top-quality silk to burn. The Emperor didn't even spare the face of the Empress Dowager and the Empress, and directly stripped Jiang Jinghui of his duties."

"Not long after that, the third son of the Jiang Family, Jiang Jingyao, had an accident at the horse track and broke his left leg. With the old master Jiang already bedridden, now his son is crippled too!"

"With the Jiang Family having one misfortune after another, could it be that they've offended someone?"
