When Jiang Nianjiao got along with Zhao Yanzhen, she had already figured out Zhao Yanzhen's personality.
So after guessing that Zhao Yanzhen had calmed down, Jiang Nianjiao just raised her head and looked at Zhao Yanzhen and said tentatively, "But husband, we can't let that illusionist go unpunished, can we?"
When Zhao Yanzhen heard this, he just touched Jiang Nianjiao's little head and said, "That's natural. I have already written to Xiaojiu. Xiaojiu knows illusions. Now that he is in the Qiangmo area, I think he arranged for someone who knows illusions. People come here. By then, we won't be hit by people from a distance and be confused."
Hearing Zhao Yanzhen mention Xiaojiu, Jiang Nianjiao naturally knew that the other person was talking about the Ninth Prince Zhao Lang.
Although she didn't have much interaction with Zhao Lang, Zhao Lang's mother knew all kinds of witchcraft, and Xiaojiu also learned a lot from her.
Now that he is in the voodoo tribe again, he will only learn more witchcraft.
Although illusion and witchcraft are different, these types of things are born from the same nation, so it is indeed more appropriate to ask Zhao Lang to do this.
Jiang Nianjiao smiled and said, "I don't know if A Lang is doing well in the voodoo tribe now."
Hearing Jiang Nianjiao's words, Zhao Yanzhen just nodded and said, "Yes, I will write to inquire about A Lang."
Although Zhao Yanzhen wrote a letter to Zhao Lang that day, the journey between the Voodoo Tribe and the capital was still quite far, and it would take fifteen days even if he had to go quickly, so Jiang Nianjiao could hardly go out during this period.
However, she also had to take care of her health and undergo confinement, so during the days when she couldn't go out, she would only walk around her own courtyard under the care of everyone.
On the other side, after going through many checkpoints in the palace, the guard who Zhao Yanzhen arranged to report finally obtained permission to enter the imperial study.
At this time, the court meeting had just settled down, and there were only Prince Zhao Nianze and his father, Emperor Yong, in the Imperial Study Room.
Emperor Yong was obviously very angry because of something. He threw a piece of paper in front of Zhao Nianze: "Look at how the Yushitai impeached you! They said that when you were handling the government affairs on my behalf, you formed cliques for personal gain and made friends. I even made a big fuss in the court! Do you think I am old and useless? Do you want to replace me as soon as possible? "
After hearing Emperor Yong's words and seeing the contents of the impeachment document, Zhao Nianze couldn't help but feel thrilling about this matter. This is simply out of nowhere! Although he had a close relationship with the ministers of the DPRK and China, he never formed any clique for personal gain, nor did he disrespect the emperor's opinions.
Hearing Emperor Yong's severe reprimand, Zhao Nianze immediately slammed his knees to the ground and explained eagerly: "Father, I have absolutely no disrespectful thoughts. The impeachment of Yushitai is completely to deal with Erchen among them. The revenge of a few incompetent people, they formed gangs, acted as mouthpieces for other parties and framed others, so I dealt with them! I also ask my father to find out about this matter and restore my innocence!"
However, Emperor Yong obviously did not believe Zhao Nianze's explanation now. He was inherently suspicious and capricious.
Now, as he gets older and older, he can't help but feel that he is increasingly unable to control the court.
Although Zhao Nianze was his biological son, he was also the only son born to him by his original wife whom he never forgot.
He even single-handedly supported Zhao Nianze, the crown prince, to ascend to power.
However, now that Zhao Nianze has really come to power and has become more and more powerful, the conflict between father and son has become more and more serious.
From disputes over government affairs to trivial matters in life, the rift between father and son is getting bigger and bigger.
Now he saw Zhao Nianze becoming more and more displeased, and he felt more and more threatened.
He even regretted that he had appointed the prince too early. The real power had only been in his hands for two or three years.
He originally thought that Zhao Nianze was an honest child, but now he became increasingly suspicious that Zhao Nianze's honesty was just a disguise.
"Innocent? How can you say you are innocent? Didn't your brother-in-law arrange people in and out of the court?" Emperor Yong continued to reprimand.
After hearing Emperor Yong's reprimand to his brother-in-law, Zhao Nianze really couldn't explain it.
His brother-in-law is a rough guy. Now that everyone knows that he will be the future emperor, the status of the Xu family has only risen with the tide. Those who see the wind will naturally fawn over each other more, but Xu Yong, the brother-in-law, does not He has never gone through this battle, and when his old friend asks for something, he always responds.
When a new friend has a request, he will help if he can.
So for this part of the content, even Zhao Nianze felt that he was completely unable to explain it clearly in front of Emperor Yong.
When Emperor Yong saw that he remained silent, he wanted to reprimand him a few words, but the voice of the eunuch Tian Bing suddenly came from outside the door: "Your Majesty, the King of Jin sent someone to say that he has something to see your Majesty."
When Emperor Yong heard that the King of Jin sent someone to ask for an audience, he was somewhat puzzled, "What is he sending someone to do?"
Naturally, Tian Bing had already asked the question clearly, so he just whispered, "In response to Your Majesty, the visitor said that Princess Jin gave birth to a baby girl weighing seven kilograms."
After hearing Tian Bing's words, Emperor Yong, who was still furious, couldn't help but look a little calmer on his face.
There was even a smile on his face. Although Princess Jin only gave birth to a daughter, she was the first among his princes to give birth to a grandson.
No matter where it is placed, the arrival of a new child is a great joy.
Emperor Yong only said to Tian Bing, "This is my first grandson. This is a great joy. Let Prince Jin's people come in, and then ask Concubine Qi to arrange some good things for Prince Jin's palace. The reward will be of the highest standard." Bar."
After hearing Emperor Yong's order, Tian Bing naturally responded immediately.
Then Emperor Yong looked at Zhao Nianze, who had his head lowered and remained silent, and said, "Prince, you and Zhilan are still friends with Yanzhen, right?"
Hearing Emperor Yong's words, Zhao Nianze could only nodded silently.
Emperor Yong then said, "You have to work hard too. I know that your husband and wife are not on good terms, but no matter what, she is your concubine. If you want to succeed, you must have someone to succeed you, even if you don't like Zhi." Lan, you can also take in a few more beautiful concubines, and then let those children live under Zhilan’s knees."
Hearing Emperor Yong's words, Zhao Nianze almost told Emperor Yong at a certain moment that he and Su Zhirou actually had a child, and the child was one year old, but he could not say the words.
He knew in his heart that Su Zhirou was now considered a dead person in front of everyone. If she were to be brought to the front of others again, Su Zhirou would have to go through many hardships. He was no longer naive.
But I also know how to think carefully about myself and my loved ones.
They just pity the child he and Zhirou gave birth to. Now, if nothing else, when the child is one month old, they can't even hold a full moon party for the child, let alone let others know.
He thought that maybe only when he ascended the throne could Zhirou's child reappear in front of everyone. At that time, he must give Zhirou's child the greatest honor.
But now that he thought about it, he actually hadn't seen Zhirou for half a month.
Of course it's not that he doesn't want to see Zhirou's child.
In fact, Su Zhirou was his love, and the only one in his life.
If he could, why wouldn't he want to stay with the mother and son every day and live a simple life as a family of three?
However, ever since he decided to return to Beijing, ever since he decided to recognize his father and avenge his mother, they could never go back to the past.
Especially now that he has become the prince, he is not the prince that everyone expects. Although his father pushed against all the opinions for him to recommend him to the throne, this also means that more eyes are staring at him. He was almost killed before because he was not cautious enough. track. Zhirou's safety was exposed.
So after that, he and Su Zhirou met less frequently.
But now that the storm has passed, shouldn't he also go see Su Zhirou's children?
Emperor Yong naturally didn't know what Zhao Nianze was thinking. He was just in a good mood, so when Zhao Nianze didn't say a word, he wasn't angry either. He just waved his hand and said to Zhao Nianze, "Okay, go down quickly. Remember to stay with me if you have nothing to do." Zhilan.”
Regarding Emperor Yong's release, Zhao Nianze naturally just said yes, and then went down silently.
…
It only takes about ten minutes to get from the capital to the manor on the outskirts of Beijing. However, in order to prevent being targeted, Zhao Nianze went back to the palace first.
In the palace, he and Xu Zhilan could hardly speak to each other or even see each other.
So when he returned to the mansion and proposed to requisition the carriage used by a servant in the mansion to do business, the servant thought it was outrageous, but Xu Zhilan never paid attention to this matter, so the servant should not ask more questions.
Zhao Nianze changed into a pair of coarse clothes, and asked the secret guard he trusted to pretend to be a coachman and ride out of the city.
The two of them had a clear path and never stopped at a step.
After leaving the suburbs, Zhao Nianze did not ask the secret guard to immediately go to Su Zhirou's new residence. He only asked the secret guard to go to the old house where Su Zhirou's mother and son were almost exposed.
After that, they parked the carriage outside the door, and after entering the old house, Zhao Nianze quietly went out from the backyard with the disguised guard. They rode for half an hour, and now they arrived at a new manor.
Although they were very cautious, before Zhao Nianze entered the manor, he still asked the secret guards to confirm whether there was anyone following him.
Only after he was sure that he was not being followed did Zhao Nianze enter the small courtyard.
At this time, Su Zhirou, mother and son, were basking in the sun in the courtyard.
Su Zhirou was still a little frightened by Zhao Nianze's arrival.
"Your Highness, why are you here? Didn't we agree not to see each other for the past six months?"
Upon hearing Su Zhirou's words, Zhao Nianze immediately whispered, "But Arou, I miss you and the child."
Hearing Zhao Nianze's words, Su Zhirou didn't even have a smile on her face. She just whispered, "Really?"
Zhao Nianze then asked, "Arou, don't you miss me?"
