"Yes," Jiang Zhiyu told him all about the Northern Expedition and the plan he and Jiang Zhaorong had devised. Jiang Kang'an lowered his eyes and said, "Father, this is inappropriate."
Jiang Zhiyu: “???”
Jiang Kangan seemed to be angry, and his tone was also a bit angry: "Although you have the ability to protect yourself, it is easy to dodge an open attack, but it is difficult to guard against an arrow from the dark. If He Yanting makes this ability known to the public, it will inevitably cause panic. If someone with ulterior motives incites a few words and labels you a monster, not even your father can protect you!"
[Is it that serious? It shouldn't be that serious. That bastard doesn't look like that kind of person.]
Jiang Kangan frowned.
After only meeting him once, Zhiyu believed him?
So what seductive tricks did He Yanting use? !
Jiang Zhiyu didn't know what he was thinking, so she patted his shoulder soothingly: "Don't worry, big brother. I know the power of public opinion, but don't worry, even if this matter really gets leaked, it won't cause any waves."
[With my ability to understand the plot so well, who wouldn't want me? Using me is definitely more valuable than killing me!]
[Besides, even if everyone in the world attacks together, the arsenal of weapons in this space is not to be trifled with!]
Jiang Kangan: “…”
really.
But we can't be careless. With my sister's unique skills, although those bigwigs will mostly try to win her over, my sister will also lose her freedom.
He hoped that his sister could be free to do what she wanted, and not be manipulated by those powerful people and driven by interests...
…
In the Jiaoxiang Hall of the imperial palace, because Concubine Yu has been favored recently, the eunuchs and maids in the palace have served her more attentively. Even the foolish Sixth Prince, who was bullied by them at will in the past, now treats her with respect.
The Sixth Prince was already of age, and logically he should have left the palace and established his own household. However, the Sixth Prince had been mentally retarded since he was born, and needed the care of an imperial physician all year round, so the matter was left unresolved.
Inside the main hall, the Sixth Prince was holding a cloth tiger, sucking on it.
Concubine Yu's face flushed as she leaned against the emperor. "Your Majesty, do you remember? That was the one you personally brought to me when Li'er was just born. You held him in your arms as he slept since he was little. Even after he got injured and became... like this now, you still loved him dearly."
As if hearing his own name, Xiao Yanli looked up blankly and looked around.
Ever since he heard Jiang Zhiyu's inner thoughts and knew that his son was planning to poison him, the emperor became even more suspicious. He punished several princes on the pretext of this and even the crown prince was not spared and was confined to the Eastern Palace for a month.
As much as the emperor disliked his son before, he now feels as kind to him.
It’s okay to be stupid, at least he won’t be like his royal brothers who have inappropriate ideas!
Rely on yourself wholeheartedly.
Thinking of this, the emperor's expression softened and he beckoned, "Li'er, come here. I am your father. Do you remember me?"
Xiao Yanli looked at him warily. After a while, he tentatively crawled forward a few steps while holding the tiger in his mouth.
The emperor kept raising the corners of his mouth, coaxing him: "Come here... Yes, good boy... Be good."
Xiao Yanli was getting closer and closer to him. The emperor extended his hand, and Concubine Yu subconsciously said, "Wait..."
The emperor's hand rubbed Xiao Yanli's hair. Although Xiao Yanli shrank a little, he did not hide in the end.
The emperor's smile deepened: "What's wrong, my dear?"
Concubine Yu was surprised and said, "These past few days, whenever someone touches this child, he will bite them. I was worried about His Majesty, but I didn't expect..."
The emperor was delighted by her words and laughed heartily: "I am not just anyone else, I am Li'er's biological father!"
Concubine Yu echoed him: "Yes, I did speak out of turn."
The emperor smiled and embraced her, feeling extremely warm. He tilted his head and kissed her neck.
"No, Your Majesty, Li'er is watching!" Concubine Yu stretched out her hand to push him away, with a forced smile.
The emperor breathed heavily: "He is just an idiot now, what does he know?"
How could Concubine Yu dare to resist?
Although the emperor was working on Concubine Yu, he glanced at Xiao Yanli from time to time. Seeing that he looked confused and even tried to climb up, he finally spoke.
"Someone, take the Sixth Prince away!"
After a tender moment, the Emperor departed, and after leaving the Jiaoxiang Palace, Fuping whispered, "Your Majesty, the Sixth Prince must have been upset after being taken away, and he bit several eunuchs and palace maids. But he was coaxed to sleep within an incense stick of time, and there was nothing unusual about him."
After hearing this, the emperor's last bit of doubt disappeared.
It would be good if he bit the person, but if he could be dragged away quietly, then he would really become suspicious.
"I've wronged Concubine Yu today. Go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and give her some more rewards."
"yes."
After the emperor left, Concubine Yu leaned against the head of the bed and cried, and she drove all the palace maids and eunuchs out of the palace.
"Mother, I've suffered..."
Xiao Yanli walked out from behind the screen. There was no trace of silliness on his face anymore. Instead, his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
He sat on the floor, leaning against the bed. Concubine Yu patted his hands, crying as she said, "Mother is fine. It's you, though. He humiliated you like this, and it's a good thing you managed to remain calm and not reveal a single thing."
Xiao Yanli closed his eyes, his heart filled with desolation and anger. "Don't worry, mother. This won't last much longer. I've received a tip-off that several other people have been punished by that bastard emperor for various reasons recently. I don't know who said what to him."
Yu Fei: "Is this true? No wonder he's acting like this today. I'm afraid he suspects you're playing mad!"
Xiao Yanli nodded: "Anyway, after what happened today, his suspicions should have completely dissipated."
Yu Fei: "Then what should we do next?"
Xiao Yanli thought thoughtfully, "No matter what that person said to the Emperor, it certainly gave me a leg up. The more the Emperor dislikes his other sons, the more he'll favor me. Now all I have to do is find a way to make the others reveal their true intentions."
Concubine Yu seemed to understand but not quite.
Xiao Yanli continued, "Miss Song has also sent a message. She's convinced her grandmother. After she invites the monk back to the palace, you should ask the emperor to go to the Jiang family. Remember to cooperate with the monk and make sure the emperor believes that Jiang Zhiyu is possessed by a demon!"
Concubine Yu nodded repeatedly.
…
The next day, after Jiang Zhiyu finished his meal, he took a carriage straight to Zuiyuelong.
Perhaps the people in the palace had already made arrangements. When Jiang Zhiyu arrived at the place, he found that the previous shop had been closed and the plaques had been taken down.
It just saves me some effort!
Jiang Zhiyu picked up the plaque and hung it up.
After hanging up the plaque, Jiang Zhiyu casually placed the advertising slogan he had prepared earlier at the main entrance.
The words "kidney deficiency" were particularly bold, and passers-by all stopped to look.
