Chapter 604: If the King Wants His Subject to Die, the Subject Must Die

"Wanwan, I know you are a smart girl."

The queen stroked the nail covers on her fingertips, her eyes full of vicissitudes.

"My lady, I'm not smart."

Jiang Wan still remembers that when she first traveled through time, the queen in the original owner's memory called her a fool and a bitch.

The queen frowned slightly, "Are you still thinking about the past?"

Jiang Wan remained silent, and the Queen sighed and said, "Everyone has his or her own position.

The prince is the emperor's thorn in the side, and no one else can change what he has decided.

If I don't follow his lead, how will my mother's family cope with the situation?"

Is this an explanation to her?

Jiang Wan thought of what Song Jiuyuan had said, that the Queen had no legitimate son, but only two daughters, the Seventh Princess and the Ninth Princess.

She had no leverage to fight for that spot, so what was she going to do?

"Your Majesty, you don't have to explain this to me. If the king wants his subject to die, he must die."

"Wanwan."

The queen wanted to pull Jiang Wan's hand, but Jiang Wan cleverly avoided her attempt and gently touched her hair.

"I have no other intentions. I just hope you can persuade the prince."

The Queen finally stated her purpose, "The Fourth Prince is the most suitable person for that position.

I know that you and the Second and Sixth Princes are all dirty, and the enemy of my enemy is my friend."

It turns out that she supports the Fourth Prince.

After thinking about it carefully, Jiang Wan understood the Queen's choice. The Second Prince had the support of the Queen Mother.

Behind the Sixth Prince are the Emperor, Concubine Xiao, and the entire Xiao family.

Even though the Fourth Prince's mother's family is powerful, his biological mother is no longer around.

If she helped the Fourth Prince ascend to that position, he would at least not treat her, his mother, badly.

After sorting out her thoughts, Jiang Wan smiled and said to the Queen, "Your Majesty, the prince and I haven't gotten married yet.

There are some things that I cannot interfere with, Your Majesty can go and talk to the Prince in person."

Although it was a tactful refusal, Jiang Wan cleverly pushed the matter onto Song Jiuyuan.

Sure enough, the Queen Mother's expression was not very good. After all, she had been fighting in the palace for so many years, so she did not show any strange expression.

I just said: "I understand your discomfort, so go back and think about it carefully.

If there is anything you need from me, you can wear this phoenix hairpin and come to the palace to find me."

She took off a phoenix hairpin from her head and handed it to Jiang Wan. Jiang Wan hesitated for a long time but finally did not refuse.

"Thank you for your kindness, madam."

"Think about it carefully. I am also thinking about you."

The Queen Mother extended another olive branch, “You and the Jiang family have fallen out.

If you support the Fourth Prince, you can have any status you want in the future.

If all else fails, I can ask my brother to adopt you as his daughter."

"Thank you for your kindness, madam."

Jiang Wan still had that unyielding attitude, and the Queen felt a little frustrated.

Fearing that Concubine Xiao would cause trouble at the banquet, she left the pavilion early.

Jiang Wan threw the phoenix hairpin into the space with an expressionless face.

"girl."

Qiu Yan trotted in, "The Queen and the others have gone back."

"Um."

Jiang Wan blew the cool breeze and said in a calm tone, "Let's wait a little longer before going in."

It would be too conspicuous if she and the queen went in one after the other.

However, she didn't expect that the person she hated would come to see her. Jiang Qing left Madam Jiang and hurried to the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

At a glance, I saw Jiang Wan sitting in the pavilion resting.

"Jiang Wan."

Jiang Qing walked in quickly and asked, "Why don't you keep such a good thing for Dad?"

"What are you thinking about?"

Jiang Wan no longer had the desire to enjoy the fresh air, so she stood up and prepared to return to the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

As a result, Jiang Qing stood in front of Jiang Wan, ready to have a big fight with her.

"Qiu Yan."

Jiang Wan gave a look to Qiu Yan beside her, who immediately understood what she meant. She stepped forward, grabbed Jiang Qing and threw her aside.

"You...what are you doing, let me go!"

Jiang Qing was thrown aside for no apparent reason, and her maid didn't even have time to react.

Jiang Wan had already taken Qiu Yan out of the pavilion.

The two of them slowly entered the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Jiang Qing was so angry that she wiped her tears and cursed Jiang Wan.

"Why are you so proud? When the new emperor takes the throne, Song Jiuyuan might be exiled again!"

Jiang Wan naturally didn't know all this. She quietly returned to her seat and whispered to Song Jiuyuan what the Queen meant.

Song Jiuyuan fell into deep thought, and after a while he said, "Wanwan, don't get involved in these things.

You just need to protect yourself, I know what to do."

"You can't tell me not to get involved now."

Jiang Wan spread her hands, "If those people can't convince you, they will try to convince me."

Song Jiuyuan frowned, obviously a little annoyed.

"Wanwan, I don't want to implicate you."

This was also the reason why he was not in a hurry to hold the wedding when he returned to Beijing. At least he left her a way out.

"But I want to be with you."

Jiang Wan blinked her eyes playfully, but didn't say anything too sentimental in public.

But the two looked at each other with eyes filled with strong affection, which hurt many people's eyes.

Things have come to this point, Jiang Wan doesn’t care whether she will be envied or not.

The banquet finally ended, and Song Jiuchi and Song Jiuli were both in a bad mood.

Song Qing and Mrs. Song each comforted one.

But before Jiang Wan walked out of the palace gate, Chao En's familiar figure appeared in front of Jiang Wan.

"Miss Jiang, the emperor invites you!"

"I'll go with you."

Song Jiuyuan was a little worried, and just after taking a few steps, he was stopped by Chao En.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor has only summoned Miss Jiang, so please don't make things difficult for us."

This was the friendship they had developed along the way, otherwise Chaoen's attitude would have been even worse.

"It's okay, I can go by myself."

Jiang Wan held Song Jiuyuan down, turned to Chao En and said, "Eunuch, let's go."

Looking at her petite back, Song Jiuyuan's eyes turned red and he wished he could step forward to stop her.

Song Qing patted his back gently, "Yuan'er, calm down.

We all know Wanwan, she can protect herself."

"Mom and Dad, you guys go back first. I'll wait for Wanwan here."

He understood the logic, but the other party was the emperor, and maybe Wanwan couldn't refuse whatever he wanted to do.

Song Qing understood his feelings and did not force him, but only told him to be more careful.

On this side, Jiang Wan followed behind Chao En and asked in a low voice:

"Eunuch, do you know what the emperor is going to do?"

Jiang Wan lowered her voice and asked. Thinking of Jiang Wan's abilities, Chao En didn't mind giving her some face.

"The Emperor knows that Miss Jiang is an excellent doctor, so he thinks what Concubine Xiao said is right."

So you want her to get treatment?

Jiang Wan had an idea in her mind, "Thank you for your advice, eunuch."

The two of them returned to the palace one after the other. At this time, the Queen was in the Qinzheng Hall, and Chao En knocked gently on the door.

"Your Majesty, Miss Jiang is here."

"Come in."

The emperor's weak voice came from inside. Qiu Yan and others were outside. Jiang Wan pushed open the door and walked in.

Passing through the pearl curtain, Jiang Wan saw the emperor sitting on the dragon throne and the eunuch standing behind him.

This should be Chaoen’s adoptive father, the eunuch Anhe.
