It just means looking at it, nothing else.
Jiang Xinyue didn't care at all, she just didn't want the emperor to think she was magnanimous.
Because being generous in this kind of thing can only prove one problem: she doesn't love the emperor enough.
If you love someone, you won't push them to others.
However, Emperor Xuanwu felt that there was nothing he could do. The Cheng family had made a great contribution. It was not an easy task for Cheng Yuan to bring evidence from Guangdong and Guangxi to Qinzhou.
Therefore, Cheng Jieyu was injured, and he wanted to express his condolences, both emotionally and rationally.
As for Liu Guiren, he didn't even listen carefully to why he came to him.
He was also injured, and he also sent someone to invite the emperor. The emperor also went to Lanyue Pavilion, but did not enter Liu Guiren's yard, but went to Cheng Jieyu's place.
If Liu Guiren could get out of bed, everything in the room would suffer.
In the next few days, the emperor stayed with Cheng Jieyu. Three days later, Cheng Jieyu's father arrived in Qinzhou and was secretly received by the emperor at Lanyue Pavilion.
Everyone just thought that Cheng Jieyu was finally favored. They had no idea that when night fell, she and the emperor slept in separate rooms, and nothing happened at all.
But Cheng Jieyu would not clarify this misunderstanding, and she was not stupid.
Even if the emperor didn't come, Jiang Xinyue was still happy and relaxed, taking the third prince, fourth prince and sixth prince to play around all day long.
The eldest princess has been keeping her concubine in her garden to recuperate recently. The second princess feels sorry for the eldest princess, so she talks to her every day and doesn't come out to play.
It was the same today. Shuangjiang and Xiao Xiangzi deliberately took the fourth and sixth princes away, leaving the third prince alone with Jiang Xinyue.
The third prince watched the butterfly kite fly away with its string cut off. For some reason, he felt relieved.
There always seems to be a voice in my heart saying: If only I could be like a kite, break free from the constraints and soar freely in the blue sky.
Jiang Xinyue did not disturb his thinking, but stood behind him. When he turned around, he did not see the fourth prince and the sixth prince, and they were running towards Jiang Xinyue in a panic.
He gestured with his hands, as if asking where his two younger brothers had gone.
Jiang Xinyue knelt down and said, "Ms. Zhen, I don't understand what you are talking about. Can you tell me?"
The third prince made another anxious gesture.
Jiang Xinyue still shook her head: "Empress Zhen really doesn't understand, can the Third Prince tell her?"
The third prince blushed anxiously and made a sound of "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh", pointing his finger in the direction where the fourth prince left, and stamping his feet.
Jiang Xinyue gently stroked his back: "Empress Zhen knows that the third prince is not mute as they say at all. The third prince can speak, but he just doesn't want to speak. Do you know? Your fourth brother is very worried about you. This time when you return from summer vacation, After the palace, he asked me to beg your father to let him go to the prince's institute to study together. It turned out that he was not allowed to go when he was under age, but he was worried that you could not speak and would be bullied by the palace people, so he asked Jane to The empress begs for your father’s help.”
When she said, "The third prince can talk," the expression on the third prince's face became panicked. His fingers were intertwined, and he did not dare to look directly into Jiang Xinyue's eyes.
This is a typical sign of wanting to escape.
"Is it because of Concubine De?"
"Ahhhhh..."
The third prince waved his hands desperately, tears quickly accumulated in his eyes, and he was about to run away.
"If you don't want to say it, Madam Zhen won't force you."
Jiang Xinyue grabbed his hand: "But think about it, if you don't speak for a long time, when you want to speak, you really won't be able to speak. You are the brother of the fourth prince and the sixth prince. Originally, He should be the best brother, and they should all regard you as their brother to rely on. But now, they all sympathize with you, take care of you, treat you as a fragile porcelain doll, and are cautious when getting along with you, not daring to touch your inner heart. Pain, is this what you want to see?"
The third prince was once influenced by Concubine De and Concubine Yu. He looked down on the fourth prince and often bullied him.
This shows that he thinks very highly of himself and feels that he is of nobler origin than the fourth prince.
Later, he reconciled with the fourth prince, not because he knew he was wrong, but because he listened to Jiang Xinyue and the emperor's words and realized that he should not do this.
Children do not have a clear distinction between good and evil. Only with a little guidance can they distinguish right from wrong.
In his heart, he felt that the fourth prince was the son of a sin slave, but he should not look down on the prince who was also his father's son, as this would make Empress Zhen and his father unhappy.
So when someone he once looked down on pitied himself and sympathized with himself, he couldn't stand the gap.
The fourth prince should regard him as a brother he can rely on, not a mute prince who needs sympathy.
The same will be true for the future Sixth Prince.
If he remains mute, the servants in the palace will treat him differently in the future. How can he be a good brother?
"Jen...Jen..."
The third prince spoke with difficulty: "No... no..."
"Because your mother-in-law poisoned you, you don't dare to speak, are you afraid that your father will know?"
The third prince was completely dumbfounded now. He didn't understand how Empress Zhen knew about this. He didn't say anything!
"Look, even Empress Zhen knows something. Do you think your father, a wise and powerful man, wouldn't know it?"
Emperor Xuanwu really didn’t know.
The main reason is that Concubine De looks up to the third prince like an eyeball. She loves him very much and would not even let him get hurt with a finger. Who would have thought that she would poison her son?
The imperial doctor said that even after he recovered, the third prince's body was not as healthy as before.
In this case, how could the emperor doubt Concubine De?
"Ms. Zhen...wow...wuwu wu Mang. Zhen..."
The secret that had been suppressed for too long was suddenly revealed without any precautions, and the third prince burst into tears with a "Wow": "Does the mother-in-law not want me anymore, because... because I am too stupid, so she doesn't want me." Oh oh oh oh..."
He had worked very hard to keep this secret, why did Empress Zhen still know about it?
If the concubine knew that Empress Zhen had discovered this secret, would she suspect that he was the one who told it?
He didn't want to talk, he really didn't want to talk.
He cried until he was out of breath. Jiang Xinyue took him into her arms and patted him: "No, your mother-in-law loves you very much. She is just confused for a moment. Can you give your mother-in-law a chance to change her ways? "
Concubine De will not change. When the third prince gets the chance to become the crown prince again, she will only intensify her efforts to poison the other princes in the harem.
There was no other way. To protect her child, she had to use the third prince to completely crush Concubine De.
Therefore, the third prince must speak.
Aren’t the words coming from his own son’s mouth not weighty enough?
When the time comes, she will take out the trump card given by the Queen, and Concubine De will never be able to turn over again.
