Seeing that Jiang Nianjiao's expression didn't look fake, and seeing the pain on her face, Zhao Nianze naturally stopped and asked in a deep voice, "Who is the murderer? What is going on?"
Jiang Nianjiao said softly, "The murderer is in Fengchen Palace. The assassin at the northern suburbs prayer meeting was actually arranged by Fengchen Palace because Fengchen Palace wanted to pull him out of the hole in the Chen family's main house. So they used that assassin. The female assassin only led a scene where the thief shouted to catch the thief. They originally planned to have Queen Min gain a reputation for risking her own life to save His Majesty. In addition, she had been working hard in the harem for so many years and had not made any mistakes. , perhaps when His Majesty liquidates the Chen family, he will not drive them all out of Fengchen Palace."
"It's just that they originally arranged the assassin in Ye Ting, but they didn't expect that the assassin had some fate with Aunt Yaoping. Aunt Yaoping admired the girl very much and took her from Ye Ting to Yuxiu Palace."
"So even though the girl died on the spot after the assassination failed, because she was a palace servant of Yuxiu Palace, once the matter is investigated, Yuxiu Palace will naturally be implicated."
Hearing Jiang Nianjiao's words, Zhao Nianze was quite shocked, but he still asked rigorously, "How do you know this? Is there any evidence?"
Jiang Nianjiao only smiled bitterly, "I don't have any evidence. It's just that some of these things were told to me by Aunt Yaoping, and some of them were admitted to me personally by the chief attendant of Fengchen Palace when I confronted her."
"I was really stupid. After getting such news, I didn't continue to pursue it, but confronted Fengchen Palace. Now that I think about it, I didn't just do something stupid to alert the snake."
"You mean, you suspect that Aunt Yaoping's death is related to Fengchen Palace?" Zhao Nianze directly expressed the suspicion in Jiang Nianjiao's heart.
Jiang Nianjiao nodded slightly.
If this matter is said to be the fault of Fengchen Palace, it does not seem impossible. After all, Queen Min is indeed capable of intervening in the affairs of Zongzheng Temple.
And according to Jiang Nianjiao, Queen Min is indeed the most likely person to do this.
But Queen Min is still in a coma.
He whispered, "Isn't Queen Kemin in a coma?"
"It's true that Queen Min is in a coma, but isn't there Qiu Wan beside her?"
When Jiang Nianjiao explained it like this, it made sense.
After all, in Fengchen Palace, Empress Min was apparently in charge of the Sixth Palace, but in fact, many decisions in the harem were made by her chief minister, Qiu Wan.
Therefore, Zhao Nianze already had some concerns in his heart.
He gently patted Jiang Nianjiao on the shoulder and said, "You don't have to blame yourself too much for this matter. I know it's difficult for you to make this decision. After all, Queen Min is the biological mother of the third brother." @
Even though Zhao Nianze did not blame herself for this, Jiang Nianjiao did not feel comforted. She only whispered, "I am confused about this matter, but don't worry, cousin, since I chose to tell you this matter today, I have no intention of talking to you about it." There is still a future for His Royal Highness the King of Jin."
Zhao Nianze didn't expect that Jiang Nianjiao would make such a choice. After all, her relationship with Lao San was viewed by outsiders as a man with love and a concubine with intentions.
The third child would not hesitate to contradict his mother for her sake. Who would have thought that Jiang Nianjiao would make such a choice at this moment.
However, he could understand how difficult it was for Jiang Nianjiao to make this choice. After all, her mother died of childbirth when she was young, and her father did not care about her. Only Concubine Yuxian raised her by her side and only regarded her as her own. Raised like a daughter, this mother-daughter affection cannot be easily replaced by the third child.
Zhao Nianze is not a heartless person. Although he has no good impression of Fengchen Palace and only has a general brotherly relationship with Lao San, he has inherited Lao San's love, and Jiang Nianjiao has done a lot for herself and Su Zhirou.
He saw all this.
Although he originally chose to give up the stable life with Su Zhirou in the countryside and entered the palace just for revenge.
But he also knew that when it came to his mother's death, the Chen family was certainly abominable, but the person in Fengchen Palace was not a victim in a sense.
For so many years, although she has lived in the middle palace, she seems to have infinite glory.
But how can the life of a queen who is not favored by her husband and is wary of her husband every day be so easy?
Therefore, in Chen Jiaru
Before he had to pay the price for the failed assassination at the northern suburbs prayer meeting sooner or later, he didn't mind opening a way for Fengchen Palace to survive.
Of course, all this must be based on the premise that Queen Min really did not take action against Concubine Yuxian.
Considering this, Zhao Nianze only said to Jiang Nianjiao, "Gillian, let me handle this matter. As for the third child, I won't tell him. You have told me all these things. Don't worry, as long as you If I don’t say it, no one will know what we said today.”
After hearing what Zhao Nianze said, Jiang Nianjiao felt a little ironic for some reason. She chuckled: Did Zhao Yanzhen not have enough eyes and ears around her? Maybe he has eyes and ears in this courtyard right now? How could he not know?
But Jiang Nianjiao still didn't say this. After all, what she did was done, and she didn't want to pretend that she hadn't done anything and continue to stay by Zhao Yanzhen's side shamelessly.
She also knew that Zhao Nianze was thinking about herself.
Seeing that she was silent, Zhao Nianze thought Jiang Nianjiao was worried about the arrangements at Fengchen Palace.
So after he thought about it for a while, he just promised Jiang Nianjiao, "But don't worry, I will try my best to get Empress Min out of the Fengchen Palace incident. And after this incident, as long as she is okay this time, it will be settled in the future." She will not be implicated in the Chen family again. But she may not be able to keep her position this time."
Jiang Nianjiao was somewhat moved when she heard that Zhao Nianze had arranged it like this and that he was really worrying about it so seriously.
Although her relationship with Queen Min was not good, she was Zhao Yanzhen's mother.
Considering this alone, she didn't want anything to happen to Zhao Yanzhen's mother.
"Cousin, thank you." It was rare for Jiang Nianjiao to say such sincere words to Zhao Nianze.
Zhao Nianze didn't care much and said, "What's there to thank you for? You've helped Arou and I with so many things. If it weren't for you last time, I really don't know how Arou and I would have ended up. Besides, from a certain point of view, I still hope You can grow old together with your third brother."
Growing old together? Is it still possible for her and Zhao Yanzhen?
However, Jiang Nianjiao directly expressed her gratitude to Zhao Nianze for his kindness.
She didn't want to make any more fuss about Zhao Yanzhen. Besides, besides confessing her feelings to Zhao Nianze, she obviously had a more important thing to do when she came out.
After all, Yuxiu Palace has now become a cold palace. In addition to inconvenience in entry and exit, food is also scarce. The most terrible thing is that my aunt's current illness cannot be postponed.
So after she talked about this with Zhao Nianze, she walked to the guards again. She only asked the guards guarding the door, "Concubine Yu Xian's health doesn't look very good. Brother, can you do something better in the future?" If it’s convenient, let the imperial doctor come and check on the Concubine Xian’s condition?”
After saying this, Jiang Nianjiao specially stuffed a bag of silver barley seeds into the guard brother.
Unexpectedly, the guard stared straight ahead and said, "Girl, please don't waste your efforts. We just stay here as ordered. Besides, His Majesty only told us that no matter what the situation is inside, no one from outside can come in. They are not allowed to go out."
After hearing this, Jiang Nianjiao knew that there was nothing she could do against this person, but she still couldn't help but feel reluctant and said, "If that's the case, why did you let us go just now when we came in?"
Before the guard could answer, Jiang Nianjiao was grabbed by Zhao Nianze first.
"Gillian, my father asked me to come over to visit my mother and concubine today, so they let me go."
After hearing that there was such a reason, Jiang Nianjiao couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhao Nianze then said, "I think since my father allows me to come over to visit my mother and concubine, I guess he still has old feelings for her. I will go and persuade my father when the time comes. You don't have to worry too much about my mother and concubine." Just wait for the third brother to come back. I heard that he went very smoothly in suppressing bandits in Yunzhou this time. They only wiped out most of the Black Eagle Society's troops, and because of the Voodoo tribe, With the cooperation of the whole territory, the people of the Black Hawk Society will have nowhere to escape this time.”
When Zhao Nianze mentioned Zhao Yanzhen's matter, Jiang Nianjiao seemed very concerned.
Seeing her like this, Zhao Nianze knew that although what she said had nothing to do with Zhao Yanzhen in the future, she actually still cared about Zhao Yanzhen in her heart.
Therefore, he only intends to get him
He told Jiang Nianjiao about Zhao Yanzhen's recent situation, "Now the third brother wants to come over and just do some finishing work. If everything goes well, he might be able to come back before the year before. It will be a happy time to have your wedding before and after the annual meeting." And appropriate.”
Jiang Nianjiao didn't think so far, she just asked softly, "Can cousin receive updates on His Highness Prince Jin's current situation?"
Zhao Nianze only smiled and said, "That's natural. It's not like you don't know the relationship between me and my third brother. If I didn't know what he was doing over there, I would be completely blind when he returns to the court." "
"It's you, didn't third brother write to you?" Zhao Nianze asked curiously.
Jiang Nianjiao shook her head, "I wrote before, but then there was no letter. I'm a little worried about him. After all, I don't know his current situation."
Zhao Nianze comforted him and said, "I guess he is very busy there. After all, the Black Eagles are not ordinary bandits."
"Besides, if you are really worried, this matter is not difficult to handle. How about I ask others to give you a point for any information I get about him from now on?"
Hearing Zhao Nianze's words, Jiang Nianjiao naturally nodded gratefully.
Then Jiang Nianjiao only asked Zhao Nianze to find an imperial doctor to see Concubine Yuxian. After giving these instructions, seeing that it was getting late, she went back to the house to say goodbye to Concubine Yuxian, "Auntie, I'm leaving."
Concubine Yu Xian was naturally reluctant to let her go. For some reason, the way Concubine Yu Xian looked at Jiang Nianjiao at the last time was as if she would never see her again.
