Chapter 1431 My Wife Knows Me and Understands Me
When the emperor thought of Zhou Wei imitating Fusang's movements and expressions, he became so angry that veins popped up on his forehead.
The secret guard said cautiously: "Miss Xiao had also visited Her Royal Highness the Princess before."
"What does she want to do with the emperor sister?"
When talking about Xiao Yan, the emperor was not so resistant because he knew that Xiao Yan had his own pride.
"I told you about Miss Zhou."
"She didn't ask about Fuso?"
The emperor raised his eyebrows. Xiao Yan looked like he didn't care about him before. Could it be that he was pretending?
“No.”
The secret guard shook his head and said, "Miss Xiao seems to be worried that the emperor is losing his mind due to lust!"
"Asshole!"
The emperor was a little angry, but Xiao Yan was not like Zhou Wei. Instead, he felt relieved.
He was really tired of these women treating him like meat on a platter.
At least Xiao Yan did it for the country.
He endured it and said, "Go to Zhou's house and announce the decree, saying that I cannot let the queen down.
Zhou Wei is not in a hurry to enter the palace. Let the queen enter the palace half a month later and then let her enter the palace with the other concubines."
If it weren't for the mighty general's face, the emperor would even want to change the candidate.
Even so, this decision made Zhou Wei furious.
Upon seeing the imperial edict, Zhou Wei fainted and the Zhou family was in chaos.
Mrs. Zhou was so anxious that her hair almost turned white. She stayed by Zhou Wei's side the whole time.
She carefully questioned her subordinates about what Zhou Wei had done today. When she learned that she had gone to find Jiang Wan, she called her an idiot!
"mother!"
Zhou Wei woke up slowly and stared at Madam Zhou, "Was I dreaming just now?"
Otherwise, why would the emperor send someone to announce her decree to postpone her entry into the palace?
"You are not dreaming. The imperial edict is from me."
Madam Zhou was somewhat resentful towards her daughter, “I asked you to please the princess.
You just keep going straight to me, are you stupid or is there something wrong with my expression?"
"Isn't that what you mean, mother?"
Zhou Wei was confused, then suddenly realized, "You mean, the princess went to the emperor and said bad things about me.
So that's why he asked me to postpone entering the palace? How could she do that? "
"not necessarily!"
Madam Zhou snorted coldly, "But the emperor must know that you went to see her!"
"Mom, what should I do?"
Zhou Wei was a little panicked. She hadn't even entered the palace yet and she was already disliked by the emperor.
"I asked you to please the princess, not to question her directly."
Mrs. Zhou is very confused. She and the master are both very smart.
How could I give birth to such a simple-minded daughter?
"Then what should I do?"
Zhou Wei didn't want to embarrass herself in front of Jiang Wan again, but since she was the cause of the incident, she had to solve the problem.
“I asked you to please her, and you can give her a gift she likes.
Or you can give gifts to the little prince and princess, and slowly get closer to her."
Mrs. Zhou became more and more angry as she spoke, "But look at what you have done.
Now it has backfired. If you postpone entering the palace, what if Xiao Yan and the emperor have a good relationship? What will you do then?
This is also a chance for Xiao Yan to conceive a legitimate son. The legitimate son will be named the crown prince. I will see what you will do then."
"I was wrong, mother!"
Zhou Wei finally realized the urgency of the matter. She grabbed Mrs. Zhou's arm and begged:
"Mom, please teach me!"
"Go and ask the princess."
Mrs. Zhou gave the answer. Although Zhou Wei was embarrassed, he agreed after some hesitation.
Jiang Wan naturally didn't know about this. They took the children out for a walk and then returned home.
The children are still young and have limited energy, so they are already tired and fast asleep.
Song Jiuyuan was waiting for her in the study, his expression somewhat solemn.
"What's going on?"
Jiang Wan raised her hand and gently rubbed his solar plexus, relieving Song Jiuyuan's tense mood.
"The person who tried to assassinate us when we returned to Beijing has been found."
"Who is it?"
Jiang Wan was also surprised. With Song Jiuyuan's ability, this matter could not have been shelved for so long.
It seems that the other party does have some skills.
Song Jiuyuan held Jiang Wan's hand with his backhand, chuckled and said, "It's General Zhou."
"Mighty General, Zhou Wei's father?"
Jiang Wan was also surprised. After all, she and Song Jiuyuan didn't seem to have any grudge against this person.
"yes."
Song Jiuyuan pressed his brows with a headache, "This person has a bit of an impatient temper.
I had my subordinates teach him a lesson before, so he probably holds a grudge against me."
"They are very similar in both father and daughter. They are very petty-minded."
Jiang Wan rolled her eyes speechlessly. It turned out that Zhou Wei followed in his father's footsteps.
"She came to see you?"
Song Jiuyuan was very busy today and had not noticed what happened to Jiang Wan.
Jiang Wan nodded slightly and succinctly recounted what happened today.
Finally, he said, "She thought she hid it very well. Even Li'er could see that she was dissatisfied and resentful towards me."
"I can take action to deal with them."
Song Jiuyuan was tangled and hesitant, "It's just that he is a new general supported by the emperor.
If I take action, I'm afraid the emperor will be wary."
That's why Song Jiuyuan was hesitant.
He didn't plan to stay in Kyoto for long. If he had a rift with the emperor, it would be difficult to deal with.
"The emperor thinks highly of General Zhou?"
Jiang Wan thought about Zhou Wei's personality and didn't quite understand what the emperor was thinking.
“He needs checks and balances.”
Song Jiuyuan understood the emperor's intentions; he had been in power for too long.
Even Sheng Yi is his brother-in-law.
And General Xu is Jiang Wan's uncle, which is a threat to the emperor.
Therefore, the emperor must train his own military generals.
Apart from General Zhou, he has not found a suitable candidate yet.
"Then let's just bear with it."
Jiang Wan always supports Song Jiuyuan, "Don't worry, I won't suffer any loss from a mere Zhou Wei.
Since the emperor needs someone of his own, let's send him one of our own."
"you mean?"
Song Jiuyuan understood immediately that the way to bring down General Zhou was not to kill him immediately.
Instead, it gave him a powerful opponent.
This person belongs neither to Song Jiuyuan nor to Jiang Wan, but only to the emperor.
"That's right. Give him an opponent. I'm afraid General Zhou won't have time to keep an eye on us every day."
Jiang Wan had never thought of using her own people, so she said:
"The emperor has grown up and is now watching us. We just need to find the right opportunity.
Just briefly mention the newcomer whom the emperor values, there is no rush."
"My wife has solved a big problem for me."
Song Jiuyuan hugged Jiang Wan. His wife always gave him good suggestions when he was confused.
"If it wasn't me, you would have thought of it too."
Jiang Wan believed that Song Jiuyuan could think of these things. After all, it was not a difficult task.
The only thing that made him sad was that he had to let her down, so he couldn't make up his mind.
"My wife knows me and understands me."
Song Jiuyuan's heart moved, he pressed Jiang Wan on the desk and kissed her gently.
The old couple who have been married for many years are still like newlyweds, expressing their love to each other.
Jiang Wan tightly grasped Song Jiuyuan's clothes and closed her eyes to feel his strength.
