Yanhuai saw that she looked confident and didn't worry too much about the Gu family's affairs.
He understood that the Gu family had made her suffer so much, and she must hope that she could get it back bit by bit, and did not want to rely on others.
There is no point in watching their suffering with cold eyes. You have to watch them slowly step into the trap that you have designed for them, and then step them all into hell, where they will never be able to stand up, and then you can let go of this bad breath.
Yu Jinxi didn't want to mention the Gu family anymore. He felt it was unlucky, and since they didn't pose much of a threat, they were not worth mentioning.
"There has been no movement in the palace these days, which is quite unexpected."
Yanhuai added, "The second prince will not give up, but you don't have to worry, I will take care of everything."
Since Yu Jinxi was injured, Yanhuai has placed many secret guards in the Gu family, secretly and openly. The second prince has also made some obstacles. He has not been able to go out these days and has no time to care about anything else.
Yu Jinxi sighed, she wanted to take care of it, but unfortunately she was hurt now, so she was really powerless.
"Is the third prince... feeling better?"
Yu Jinxi asked, and Yanhuai said nonchalantly, "The Zhang family and the third prince are engaged."
"When did it happen?" Yu Jinxi sat up straight with a look of astonishment on his face.
She hadn't been lying down for two days, so why did such a big thing happen?
Yanhuai looked at her with a funny face, "It's just what happened in the past two days. Miss Zhang fell in love with the third prince, so it was the Zhang family who took the initiative to ask for his hand in marriage."
Hearing this, Yu Jinxi's eyes widened in surprise.
Seeing her like this, Yanhuai was afraid that she would faint, so he quickly raised his hand to hold her arm.
"Everyone in the capital knows that the parents of the Zhang family treat their daughter Zhang Suying like a ball in their eyes, and they are almost spoiled for choice when choosing a husband for her. In the past, due to the high status of the third prince and his ability in both civil and military affairs, the Zhang family did not dare to go high, but now The third prince has lost his legs, and Zhang Suying is clamoring for marriage, so Mr. Zhang has no choice but to go to the imperial study to ask the emperor to marry him."
Hearing what Yanhuai said, Yu Jinxi looked stunned, "Although I knew about this, I never expected that Mr. Zhang would dote on his daughter to such an extent. I thought this matter would be delayed at least until the third prince recovered from his injury. Let the third prince go to the Zhang family to propose marriage."
Yanhuai added, "I heard that Mr. Zhang cried profusely in the emperor's study room because of this marriage. He spoke out his heartfelt words and made the emperor very angry."
Yu Jinxi's heart for gossip ignited and he quickly asked, "What did Mr. Zhang say?"
Yanhuai knew that she liked to hear this, and said with a smile, "Master Zhang said that Zhang Suying is his beloved daughter and the apple of Zhang family's eye. Originally, he did not agree with his daughter marrying into the royal family. At first, he thought that his daughter had a straightforward temperament and could not handle the situation. I can’t stand the twists and turns in the Royal Palace, and I don’t agree now because the third prince broke his leg, and I’m afraid that my daughter will suffer for the rest of her life, so I think the third prince is not a good destination.”
Yu Jinxi was shocked, "Master Zhang, how dare you say that!"
"The emperor doesn't like others to contradict him. Although he is afraid of the third prince, the third prince is also his biological son. Who would like others to say something bad about his biological son?"
Yanhuai said, "Master Zhang said he didn't agree, but his daughter forced him to agree without eating or drinking at home, so he had no choice but to shamelessly come to the emperor to propose marriage for his daughter."
"No matter how much Mr. Zhang looks down on the third prince, Miss Zhang is determined to get married. When the emperor saw Mr. Zhang not being awkward, he was so happy that he agreed to the marriage."
After hearing the whole story, a flash of sarcasm flashed in Yu Jinxi's eyes, "Our emperor is really awkward!"
Yanhuai snorted, "You can't just obey him, and you can't even try to force him. Seeing others not getting what they want is probably his biggest hobby."
Yu Jinxi and Yourongyan.
"Speaking of which, the third prince's marriage to Zhang Suying went so smoothly, and he has to thank you."
It was unclear whether Yanhuai's tone was praising her or wanting to teach her a lesson, but Yu Jinxi didn't answer.
"If you hadn't taken the risk to remind him, the third prince would not have thought that the emperor's fear of him has reached this level."
Now that she heard it, Yanhuai didn't want to teach her a lesson.
Yu Jinxi said, "I just thought about what would happen to you and the Yu family, and since the third prince is on good terms with you, I think there is a high probability that he will also be targeted."
"The emperor has many sons, he is not missing one."
The princes and princesses in the palace were sorted separately. During the winter hunt, only three older princes went there, but there were still several younger princes in the palace. Because of the cold weather, the emperor asked them to stay in the palace. Keep it.
Even though these three older princes are useless, the emperor is still young and has not yet reached his twilight years. He still has the opportunity to wait for the other princes to grow up.
The third prince was not the emperor's only hope, and the status of his mother and concubine was unremarkable, so he had to protect himself.
"There is no fairness and justice under the majestic imperial power. It is all just bones."
After saying this, Yu Jinxi noticed that Yan Huai was staring at him with a good look.
"What...what's wrong?" Somehow, she felt a little guilty when he saw her.
Yanhuai shook his head, and then said seriously, "I've never heard you talk about this before."
Hearing this, Yu Jinxi instantly understood what he meant.
She used to be blind, only thinking about the trivial matters of the Gu family, and had no idea of the Yu family's situation, let alone that she was trapped in a quagmire with a miserable end.
"It's not too late to say this now."
Nothing has happened yet, so we can still make amends.
After finishing speaking, there was a knock on the door, and Yu Jinxi asked, "What's the matter?"
"Miss, someone is coming from the palace." Qingti's voice sounded outside the door.
Hearing this, Yu Jinxi's eyes were full of surprise, "Why are you here at this time?"
"I'll get out of the way first." Yanhuai's eyes were full of anger. After settling Yu Jinxi, he hid in the room.
Yu Jinxi asked Qingti to invite the people in, while he lay on the bed and looked sick.
After a while, Qingti and Zhang's mother respectfully invited a palace official to come in.
Last time it was a eunuch who came, but this time it was an older nun.
Mammy was dressed in palace attire, with two palace maids following behind her.
When she saw Yu Jinxi, grandma greeted her politely. Yu Jinxi responded feebly and asked her to sit down.
Mammy thanked her, but did not sit down. Instead, she said to Yu Jinxi, "I came here to see Mrs. Gu on the orders of the Imperial Concubine. Mrs. Gu fell and was injured on the way into the palace two days ago. The Imperial Concubine was very worried. , but I have been busy these past two days and haven’t been able to spare any time, so tonight I specially ordered my slave to come visit Madam.”
"May I ask, mama, which concubine is it that allowed me to enter the palace?"
The queen in the palace is the most respected, followed by an imperial concubine, and two other concubines. Which concubine is this mama talking about?
Mammy said with a proud look, "She is the second prince's biological mother, Concubine Duan."
Yu Jinxi said "Oh".
She finally showed her face.
