Prince Jing seemed very busy after returning from Shengjing. No one dared to ask what Prince Jing was doing. Even if Prince Jing did not go to court, the emperor would not say anything.
The weather is getting colder and early winter is about to usher in. In the past, at this time, Jin slaves frequently harassed Bianbei and robbed property and food. This was not only the case for Jin slaves, but also other nomadic peoples on the border.
Because when winter comes, everyone will have to hide from the winter and cannot work or go out, so they need to save enough food.
The main reason why Bianbei has been so honest in these years is that Zhou Jinyan is in charge. Now that Zhou Jinyan is in Shengjing, the Jinnu has swept in again, sending small groups of soldiers in the past month.
This time is different from the past. In the past, it was usually people from the Jinnu tribe living nearby, but these people who came back were obviously soldiers from the Jinnu army.
This was within Zhou Jinyan's expectation. Jin Nu was testing Da Zhou's attitude and diverting his attention to give Da Zhou's meticulous work some time to breathe.
There is a raging army, and a den of raging generals. Zhou Jinyan's generals have been personally brought out by him over the years. Even if he is not in the north, he can still defend against the enemy.
Before, he was in a hurry to go back because he wanted to attack the Golden Slaves in the autumn, but now that the "civil strife" has not stopped and the weather has turned cold, Zhou Jinyan is no longer in a hurry to go back.
The two princes on the Jinnu side were fighting fiercely, and the two tribes under their names were in constant conflict. Now it would be best if they fought first and both sides would suffer.
Not only was the situation in Bianbei easy to deal with the enemy, Zhou Jinyan also recruited several generals to come to Shengjing. Even the prince might be related to the Jinnu. He did not trust anyone in Shengjing until the danger was completely eliminated.
At that time, the generals will guard the city gates to prevent changes.
Because the third prince was suspicious, the emperor was also alienated from Concubine Liu. The main reason was that Concubine Liu had not withstood the "test".
Concubine Liu did disguise herself very well, but most of the time the emperor treated the concubine from the perspective of possessions, just like teasing a cat or a dog, more to express his own emotions, and the concubine's emotions were not his concern.
Rather than saying that he didn't see through it, it's better to say that the emperor didn't want to see it at all. Concubine Liu as the interpreter was enough to make him happy, and he didn't need to invest too much emotion.
It may be said that it is indifferent, but the harem has never been a place for family members to the current emperor, and the ruthlessness of the emperor may also be included in this.
Without Concubine Liu noticing, she fell out of favor. Concubine Liu thought that what she said was impartial, but little did she know that the more she did, the more false she became.
Especially after the emperor investigated that Concubine Liu had been very close to the Queen Mother recently. She seemed to be filial, but in fact she was trying to win over the Tang family. The purpose behind it was self-evident.
However, Concubine Liu did not know that she had fallen out of favor, because after Prince Jing returned to Shengjing, the emperor never came to the harem again, nor did he recruit other concubines.
This is why Concubine Liu Gui is anxious to ask Tang Fu to win over Concubine Jing. Prince Jing is too heavy in the emperor's heart! His words are worth a thousand words from others.
In fact, not entering the harem is not a big deal. After all, the emperor had just recovered from poisoning, but during the morning court, the emperor actually reprimanded the third prince!
Just because of a small thing, this kind of thing would not have been reprimanded in the past.
The direction of the wind suddenly changed. Is the emperor tired of the third prince?
The third prince didn't understand what was going on. After the morning court, he went to the imperial study room to ask for an audience and was rejected.
After hearing this, Concubine Liu felt panicked and took the soup she had stewed with her own hands to send to the emperor. She was also rejected, and now she was even more confused.
She quickly found Tang Fu and asked Tang Fu to find Princess Jing to talk to her.
If there is anyone who knows the emperor's thoughts best, it is none other than Prince Jing.
Jian Yu looked at the note that Hongmei got from the salesman at the door. She read the message clearly and laughed. She showed it to Zhou Jinyan and said, "The third prince is in a hurry."
Everything is within Zhou Jinyan's plan. Even if the third prince can be stable, the people around him will also be in chaos.
Not to mention Concubine Liu Guifei and Tang Fu, even the Cui family, the prince's concubine who has not yet visited, is also seeking information.
The emperor's attitude was decided in the imperial study room before, and he ignored the third prince. If the third prince really had contact with Jinnu, he would naturally join forces with Jinnu.
It is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. After experiencing the third prince who is in a high position and having everyone fawn over him, and then experiencing the coldness of tea when someone is gone, it must be a different feeling. He will want to take everything back into his hands.
The Third Prince couldn't hold himself steady.
Although Zhou Jinyan focused most of his attention on the third prince, he did not relax in other aspects. After the generals from Bianbei arrived in Shengjing this morning, he had already arranged them at various palace gates.
With the help of the emperor, everything was done without anyone noticing. If any of the generals stationed at the palace gate rebelled, they would be stabbed to death by the general from the north at the moment of rebellion, and then take over the power of leading the troops.
Since there was already a matter of selecting adjutants, there was no problem in increasing the number of adjutants, and everything went smoothly.
Of course, other aspects here include marriage.
After Zhou Jinyan and Jian Yu finished talking about the third prince's issues, they began to report on the progress of their marriage today.
The front is very serious, but the back... How dare you show off by buying a limited edition of Erotic Pictures! She's too embarrassed to listen, okay?
Especially seeing that Zhou Jinyan was reporting very seriously, Jian Yu still blushed with embarrassment even though the erotic picture was just a mouthful.
Not wanting Zhou Jinyan to notice, she turned her head to calm down, and saw the young prince outside the window.
The young prince has been living a very happy life recently, especially in the Imperial Academy, where he showed off the various gifts that Jian Yu brought him. All his classmates knew that Princess Jing had brought gifts to the young prince.
No, all the students in the Imperial Academy know it.
——Princess Jing misses the young prince!
After all, when the Imperial Academy held a wine ceremony and presented awards to progressive students, all the students in the Imperial Academy were present.
"Good progress, keep working hard."
"Thank you for the wine. It was the Huishan ink my mother brought back to me. It helps me answer questions more smoothly!"
…
This kind of conversation has always happened between the young prince and his classmates. Who would have thought that he would not be able to stop showing off in front of the wine ceremony!
"Mother!"
When the young prince saw Jian Yu calling him, he jumped happily to the window, and then whispered: "Mother, I won't go in, I'm helping you look after people!"
"Look after people for me?"
Jian Yu was confused, where did she start talking about this?
The young prince was very surprised and said: "Didn't father tell you about General Mei's coming to Shengjing? It's his fault! Mother, General Mei is..."
Hearing this, Zhou Jinyan suddenly realized that his son was going to cause trouble, but it was too late to stop him.
The young prince said sharply: "When General Mei was in Bianbei, he loved his father and said that he would not marry anyone other than his father! Now she is arranged in the guest room by her father!"
Jian Yu narrowed her eyes, suitor?
