Chapter 414 Blood Profit
After repenting, thinking of the conversations of those ladies, Shang Anlan's eyes turned into scrutiny.
Is the relationship between the emperor and her really just about talent?
Not only did he set a precedent for women to serve as officials, but he also exempted her from the morning court and made her serve in the study.
Not to mention the subsequent female emperor stories.
Is it enough for the emperor to tolerate her to this extent just because he
values her? If the emperor treats her with the intention of treating her as a daughter, why doesn't he take her in as his adopted daughter and make her a princess?
Shang Anlan couldn't figure it out.
But one day, she suddenly got some inspiration from the story.
The emperor was obviously bored.
He was tired of the gentle women in the harem, and turned to be interested in a heroic woman like Jiang Zhiyu, not to mention that Jiang Zhiyu was still his subject. The combination of the two naturally made the emperor feel fresh.
Shang Anlan, who felt that she had grasped the truth, looked at Jiang Zhiyu with sympathy.
When Jiang Zhiyu took the initiative to ask to look after the two princes just now, Shang Anlan also heard it.
If it wasn't for love, how could she take on such a hot potato!
She secretly made up her mind that she must wake Jiang Zhiyu up!
Not only for her, but also for herself.
If Jiang Zhiyu wanted to fight for the position of queen, she would be her biggest opponent.
She was not completely sure that she would win. If Jiang Zhiyu took the initiative to withdraw, it would be good for everyone.
What's more, her father's current position as prime minister was recommended by Jiang Zhiyu. Unless it was absolutely necessary, she didn't want to go to war with her benefactor.
"I have accepted the medicine. I have something important to discuss with Lord Xing. You..."
Shang Anlan also came back to her senses and took over the emperor's words: "Then I will take my leave first."
She turned and left, and glanced at Jiang Zhiyu before leaving.
[Why do I feel that glance has a deep meaning? ]
Knowing that discussing important matters with him was just an excuse, after Shang Anlan left, Xing Maozhi also stood up and said goodbye. Jiang Zhiyu also stood up from the recliner, tidied her dress, and prepared to go to the imperial prison.
"Zhiyu, what kind of person do you think Shang Anlan is?"
Jiang Zhiyu was silent for a while: "An ambitious person."
[After all, her target is the queen. 】
...
In the imperial prison, Xiao Yanli and Xiao Chuji were still sleeping. Even though the prison was filled with wailing and begging for mercy, the two of them were unaware. They
slept soundly wrapped in dirty quilts.
Xing Maozhi watched from outside for a while before softly ordering, "Everyone, stay alert. Regardless of the others, you must keep an eye on these two. They can't leave them alone for a moment."
Because of Liu Jie's incident, Xing Maozhi killed several prison guards. No one dared to be lazy anymore. Their eyes were as loud as bells.
They all answered yes in unison.
Xing Maozhi exhaled, "Don't be too nervous. Just make sure the people are in the imperial prison. Don't worry about the rest."
After he gave the order, he turned around and looked at the gate of the imperial prison.
Why haven't you come yet?
...
Jiang Zhiyu left the palace and originally planned to go straight to the imperial prison, but then she changed her mind and thought that it had been three days and three nights, and even a strong man should rest. If she went there now, she might just run into them sleeping, so what would she do there?
She ordered the driver to go back to Xu's house first, pick up Bai Yan, and then go to Jiang Wenjing's place to find Ji Tong.
The carriage was bumpy. Jiang Zhiyu twirled her hair with one hand while asking the question she had been thinking about in the palace: "You said, if we use a worm's worm to entice a worm, will the worm be tempted?"
Bai Yan: "..."
He stopped fiddling with the bottle and frowned as he fell into deep thought: "I haven't tried it yet, but ordinary worms definitely won't work. They need to burrow into flesh and blood to be activated. High-level worms might work."
"Do you have high-level worms on you? Let them take a bite."
Anyway, he was free, so Bai Yan took out two worms from his sleeve.
As soon as they met, the worms started to bite each other.
Jiang Zhiyu took action in time to separate them.
"Gums are belligerent. They are usually not put together of the same rank, otherwise we will end up like what happened just now."
"There is no room for two tigers in one mountain, I understand." Jiang Zhiyu took off the silver hairpin on her head and teased the insect, waiting for it to calm down before doing the experiment.
After the insect slowed down, Jiang Zhiyu pinched its body, approached the insect in Bai Yan's hand and took a bite.
"Quick, try to drive it."
Bai Yan played the vertical flute, but the two insects seemed to have no reaction.
Bai Yan's eyes did not show any ripples. After playing for a long time, the two insects still had no reaction.
"It doesn't seem to work." Jiang Zhiyu shook the insect, and the insect crawled two steps. She shook it again, and the insect crawled two steps again.
After a few times, Jiang Zhiyu got bored and was about to return the insect to Bai Yan, but he saw the insect in Bai Yan's hand suddenly half-stand up.
Jiang Zhiyu: "???"
Bai Yan's eyes flashed with surprise.
Frankly speaking, he didn't have any hope for the idea proposed by Jiang Zhiyu. The reason he cooperated was just because he was too stuffy in the carriage and wanted to have some fun.
But this scene was really beyond his expectations.
"Don't just stand there, blow it again!"
Bai Yan blew the vertical flute, and the insect crawled slowly according to his instructions.
"It actually works..."
Bai Yan looked at the insect in his hand and muttered to himself.
If that's the case...
[It was said that Malzaha seemed to say that these were all his treasures. Could they be all high-level insects? ]
[This is not a bloody profit! 】
【Use his insects to deal with the insects of the Southern Dragons. 】
【It's really like Qin Shi Huang eating peppercorns - he wins! 】
While the two of them were thinking about their own things, the carriage slowly stopped.
Jiang Zhiyu jumped off the carriage, and after Bai Yan put away the two insects, he also jumped off with her.
Inside the house, Jiang Wenjing was sitting at the table, and Ji Tong was sitting on the bed.
[He can even sit up on the bed. This kid is recovering very quickly. ]
Jiang Wenjing nodded imperceptibly.
[He can sit now, and he will be able to walk in a few days, and run in a few days! ]
[Wouldn't it be just in time to recover before going to Nanlong? ]
[That won't do! ]
Jiang Wenjing: "..."
However, it can't be that fast.
When Ji Tong saw Jiang Zhiyu, he remembered how she had teased him several times before, and for a moment, he couldn't keep the polite smile on his face.
Jiang Wenjing had become suspicious of him a few times before, and he didn't treat him as well as before. In addition, he could only stay in bed now, with several pairs of eyes staring at his every move, and no news could be passed in. Ji Tong simply hated Jiang Zhiyu.
"Yeah, you've recovered well. At this rate, I'm afraid you'll be well soon. Congratulations."
Jiang Zhiyu sat beside his bed, facing his murderous gaze, and chuckled.
"Excuse me for saying good things," Ji Tong said coldly, "I'm not feeling well. You are here to see Brother Wenjing, right? You two can do whatever you want. I'll rest first."
Without waiting for Jiang Zhiyu to reply, he lay down. Because he moved too quickly, he pulled the wound on his body, and he hissed in pain. If you can't afford to provoke him,
can't you just hide?
