Chapter 29: Fainted from Anger
Xiao Junze was carried onto the dragon chariot by the imperial guards.
Chief Steward Ji and the two young eunuchs cried and shouted all the way, attracting the attention of many people.
Regarding this, the common people who saw Xiao Junze being carried away and did not know the inside story were talking about it...
"Tsk tsk! Prince An's demotion brought back such a deep emotion to the Emperor that he couldn't accept it for a moment. He was so heartbroken that he fainted."
"Yes! The Emperor loves his younger brother Prince An so much, yet he still plots a rebellion."
"Alas, you can only judge a person by his appearance and not by his heart!"
......
Before long, the news that Xiao Junze fainted in Prince An's Mansion spread throughout the streets and alleys of the capital.
It was not a loss for Xiao Junze to faint from anger this time. After all, he unexpectedly gained a wave of "temporary" praise from the people.
This made the imperial doctors in the palace very busy.
Overnight, all the masters in the palace fell ill as if they had agreed upon an appointment.
The whole palace was in chaos...
After diagnosis by Doctor Qiao, the three people's conditions were exactly the same... they all fainted due to anger.
Doctor Qiao wondered how such a remarkable person could exist in the Dayan Dynasty, someone who could steal the imperial treasury and the emperor's private treasury without anyone noticing...
I heard that the storehouses of the two concubines in the harem were also raided.
Chief Steward Ji wiped the sweat from his forehead and rushed out of the bedroom anxiously, "Doctor Qiao, how is the emperor doing?"
"Oh my! It's all my fault for not taking good care of the emperor. What should I do now?"
As Manager Ji spoke, he did not forget to slap himself on the face a few times.
It’s really not his fault this time!
Before he went to Prince An's Mansion, he really didn't know that the national treasury and the emperor's private treasury had been stolen!
He was also wondering why the emperor fainted from anger this time?
No one can bear this!
The most important thing is...how come the warehouse of Prince An’s Mansion was also stolen?
This thief is too arrogant! He only targets members of the royal family.
Jiang Qinian: My house was also robbed, but... I just won’t tell anyone.
Doctor Qiao looked at Chief Steward Ji's pretentious expression and quickly took a step back. He said with a hint of disdain, "I will prescribe a prescription to calm the mind and relieve depression. The emperor will get better soon."
Upon hearing this, Manager Ji returned to Xiao Junze's bedroom with a dejected look on his face.
He was thinking: I should take this opportunity to send someone to Prince An's Mansion to find out what the emperor wants.
In this way, he can also make a great contribution.
On the way back to the Imperial Hospital, Doctor Qiao secretly thought: It is unlikely that His Royal Highness Prince An would secretly stockpile troops.
The emperor's only goal is to eliminate future troubles!
Also, I’m afraid the emperor fainted this time not because the warehouse was robbed!
According to his diagnosis, all patients have symptoms of vomiting blood.
Tsk tsk! How angry he must be!
East Palace.
After Xiao Mocheng learned that several warehouses in the palace had been robbed, he immediately moved his belongings to a dark room.
And he had several skilled people guard it strictly for 12 hours.
Jiang Ruo: Haha! I didn't expect that there would be a fish like you that slipped through the net.
Let’s talk about it next time I go to Beijing!
Xiao Mocheng thought about Xiao Chengjin being demoted to a commoner and exiled, and paced back and forth in the bedroom with a frown.
What exactly happened last night?
Why did his father suddenly take such a cruel action against his young uncle?
An idea suddenly occurred to Xiao Mocheng.
Could it be that... my father has found the "thing" that my grandfather left for my little uncle?
Yes, my father is in his prime, how could he tolerate others coveting his throne?
Xiao Mocheng felt somewhat relieved at this moment that he hadn't seduced Jiang Ruo.
If the emperor knew that I intended to get close to the little aunt, wouldn't his intentions be obvious?
From now on, as the prince, he should behave himself!
If the emperor becomes suspicious of him, his position as crown prince may be in jeopardy.
The emperor's heart is unpredictable, and the royal family's ties are thinner than paper.
If he's not careful, he'll end up like the little uncle...
——————
The exiled people looked back at the blurry capital city and set out on the road to Jizhou without distraction.
Life is unpredictable and things are hard to predict. It is still uncertain who will have the last laugh...
Leaving the capital temporarily is also a good choice.
Maybe their master will get better after leaving the capital!
Jiang Ruo in the carriage secretly thought: When the dog emperor finds out that the warehouse of Prince An’s Mansion has been emptied, will he be so angry that he vomits blood?
Thinking of this, Jiang Ruo couldn't help but smile with her eyes curved.
Oh, she's been so worried about this family.
She got up to pack before dawn.
From large items like wardrobes and gold-inlaid water jars to small items like jade bowls, jade cups, silver chopsticks and silver spoons for daily use, she stored them all in the space.
Prince An’s Mansion is almost an empty shell!
Once we get to Jizhou, the "giant baby" who needs care will be able to get better.
By then, once the divorce papers were in hand...
Hehe! Everything is developing in the direction I expected.
At this moment, she really wanted to sing "Today is a good day..."
Jiang Ruo, in a very good mood, lay down next to Xiao Chengjin, crossed her legs and hummed a little tune.
She nudged Xiao Chengjin lightly with her elbow and muttered, "Xiao Chengjin, do you feel that the air outside the capital is sweeter than the air inside the capital?"
"The capital city only has a gorgeous appearance. Behind every smiling face are deceit and scheming..." Jiang Ruo said this with a look of disgust on her face.
"Alas! A simple person like me is only suitable for living in the countryside."
"Because... I want to live a long life, hehe!"
Xiao Chengjin pricked up his ears to listen to Jiang Ruo's mumbling, and silently said in his heart: You will live a long life.
No wonder she didn't take the exile seriously.
It turns out that she doesn't like staying in the capital...
Come to think of it, what's so good about a place like Beijing where people are eaten without leaving any bones behind?
Three years ago, he submitted a memorial requesting a fiefdom, and his good brother the emperor summoned him into the palace.
The excuse is: You are my most beloved brother, there is no way I will let you go to the fiefdom!
In fact, the emperor wants to feel at ease only when he keeps me under his nose!
Now that he has the intention to kill himself, the only explanation is: he is afraid of raising a tiger to cause trouble.
Nanny Liu and Dongxue huddled awkwardly in a corner of the carriage.
The two of them quietly looked at the leisurely Jiang Ruo, and their tense emotions slowly relaxed.
They felt that as slaves, they were not worthy of riding in the same carriage with their masters.
But I can’t stand my master’s fierce look!
Hearing the hawking sounds not far away, Jiang Ruo touched his rumbling belly and jumped up.
She slapped her forehead: "Yes! We've been busy all morning and the family hasn't had breakfast yet!"
The world is big, but eating is the most important!
