But things were not what he feared. Not only did Xiao Zuo not try to seduce him, but he also avoided her like a snake or a scorpion.
Since waking up, Shen Zhaoning has volunteered to serve as a slave and refuses to sleep with Jun Beicheng again.
It's just that someone's face looks so bad for some reason. She always has a hot face but a cold butt, and she has scolded her many times.
Not to mention that she didn't know why, even Jun Beicheng himself didn't know why he felt unhappy and was holding back his anger for no reason.
The journey back went smoothly and we arrived back in Kyoto safely.
This time not only did they clear out the weapons smuggling dens, but also seized a large number of weapons and black powder, as well as a batch of gold.
This was considered a great achievement, and it also involved rebels, and the captured assassins had to be brought for interrogation.
As soon as Jun Beicheng returned to Kyoto, he had to rush into the palace to handle the smuggling case without resting for a moment.
Shen Zhaoning felt like he had come to life. He hugged and kissed his eldest son who had been waiting at the door for a long time before finally giving up. The mother and son returned to the yard to eat secretly bought snacks together.
The man put on a navy blue python pattern official uniform, glanced at this warm scene from a distance, his face turned gloomy, and he turned away.
Ah You behind him beeped softly: "Why is the prince suddenly unhappy?"
Zuo didn't know why, "The prince probably doesn't like children. He used to be pestered by princes and princesses in the palace, and he always said it gave him a headache."
After entering the palace.
Jun Beicheng recounted all his experiences, and the emperor was so angry that he slapped the table several times.
"These traitors are so courageous! It's better to leave this matter to Brother Wang to investigate thoroughly. You must find out those traitors!"
After saying that, the emperor changed the topic and softened his tone: "But there is one more thing. I should not interfere too much in the personal affairs of the king's brother, but this matter involves the reputation of Princess Anyang's daughter's family, and the Duke has written letters one after another. , the queen and the queen mother also mentioned it to me several times, and I had to ask a few questions."
Before entering the palace, Jun Beicheng expected that this matter would be brought up.
But just because he has made such a great contribution this time, even if he is angry, his good brother will only help him.
But now is not the time to openly quarrel with the Queen Mother and the Dongfang family. There is no need to confront this matter in public.
He bowed his head slightly and saluted: "Back to the emperor, this matter is all rumors. There is indeed a bed-warming maid in the palace. I wonder what it has to do with the princess?"
When he said this, how could the emperor still not understand?
But as the king of a country, there are far more things to worry about during banquets, and what he cares about are not these trivial matters.
He knew the thoughts of the Duke's Mansion very clearly, and now he had to be wary of the power of the Dongfang family and the military power in the hands of his good brother.
Both parties have to be appeased and at the same time, they have to prevent them from joining forces. There are temptations everywhere between the monarch and his ministers.
Jun Yanli is more than ten years older than Jun Beicheng, and the eldest child is about the same age as the younger brother. He has always played the role of a kind brother.
"Beicheng, you are now old enough. It's time to marry a royal concubine. Princess Anyang is interested in you. Now there is a lot of rumors outside, which is not good for you and her reputation. How about I make the decision for you and grant a marriage? "
Jun Beicheng's face was calm and calm, but there was an undercurrent in his lowered eyes.
The brotherhood in the royal family is just a thin layer of window paper, vulnerable to attack, and it is all just a show of force.
He was very clear about the calculation in the heart of this imperial brother, and immediately knelt down: "Brother, please take back your order. I have no intention of being the princess of Anyang. If the emperor insists on doing this, I will have no choice but to disband and return to the fields and become a villager." The King of Ye Xian."
As soon as these words came out, Jun Yanli was so happy that he was laughing to the back of his ears, but he still had to do enough.
He frowned: "Brother Wang, what are you saying? How can the Emperor force you? If you don't like it, then you won't like it. It's just that this matter is related to the face of the Duke's Mansion and Princess Anyang. Don't make it too ugly. .”
snort! The Duke's Mansion is so shameless, so what else is there to be ashamed of?
It's just that it's not time to completely break up.
Jun Beicheng returned to Prince Zhan's Mansion with an angry look, and immediately ordered Zuo to find a beautiful and innocent girl.
The news was immediately released that the woman who spent the night in his room was someone else, not Princess Anyang.
After the woman wandered around in front of everyone, the rumors were self-defeating, and the Duke's Mansion couldn't rush to ruin his daughter's innocence.
Dongfang Qingqing originally thought that the news of the marriage would come as soon as the War King came back, but she didn't expect that it would happen like this!
Reluctantly, she sent someone to Prince Zhan's Mansion to inquire. It was true that the woman would spend the night in Prince Zhan's house every night.
Unexpectedly, she sent someone to keep an eye on her for so long, but the woman was still found. Not only that, she was also favored by the King of War!
