Today, he finally had some time and happened to secretly find out that Zhou Beichen went to Xuan Zheng Hall at this time and did not summon the minister to enter the palace. Jiang Yanfeng then rushed to Xuan Zheng Hall without stopping.
He was very happy the moment he saw Zhou Zhaonuan, but now... Jiang Yanfeng put down the feet he was holding and moved his handsome face closer to Zhou Zhaonuan. Realizing the disgust in her eyes, Jiang Yanfeng was not annoyed, but smiled elegantly.
He knelt on one knee and said, "I pay my respects to Princess Chang'an. Long live the princess. I wonder why you are feeling upset. Could you please tell me? Perhaps I can help you resolve the issue."
Jiang Yanfeng lowered his eyebrows and looked humble and submissive, which made Zhou Zhaonuan raise an eyebrow.
Zhou Zhaonuan smiled calmly. For the first time in many years, she showed a genuine smile to Jiang Yanfeng.
She even squatted down and condescended to help Jiang Yanfeng up, "Come, Lord Jiang, please stand up quickly."
Jiang Yanfeng couldn't be bothered by her sudden change of character. She was suddenly so gentle to him. Could it be that the sun had risen from the west?
Jiang Yanfeng looked at Zhou Zhaonuan in surprise, "Princess, you..."
Zhou Zhaonuan was extremely satisfied with his performance. She reached out and lifted Jiang Yanfeng's chin. Zhou Zhaonuan moved closer to him, pretending to be uncomfortable and worried. For a moment, Jiang Yanfeng felt very uncomfortable.
Especially the little aggrieved look of his daughter made Jiang Yanfeng feel distressed out of nowhere.
At the same time, under such a close distance, he could even intuitively feel the warm breath Zhou Zhaonuan exhaled on his cheek. Jiang Yanfeng's ears began to turn red and his cheeks became hot involuntarily.
Jiang Yanfeng lowered his head slightly and organized his words.
"I wonder if the princess has any advice for me?"
Zhou Zhaonuan smiled evilly. In the dynasty, many girls started to get married at the age of fifteen. She was fourteen this year. Although she didn't know much about matters between men and women, she had heard some of them.
Zhou Zhaonuan forced Jiang Yanfeng's face to straighten, and her eyelashes fluttered violently. The next moment, she bit her teeth lightly, and her whole body showed a pitiful posture.
"Master Jiang, you just said that you can help me solve my problems, right?"
Jiang Yanfeng nodded, and after nodding, when he saw Zhou Zhaonuan's cunning smile, he suddenly had a bad premonition.
Sure enough, the next second she released the hand that was holding up his chin and moved closer to him again. This time, unlike usual, Zhou Zhaonuan's voice was soft.
"Lord Jiang, I know you bother me every day because you're attracted to me. Moreover, since my father allowed you to do this, I'm afraid he had a plan in mind. If you really want me to pay attention to you as before, you can't just sit here and do useless work."
Unconsciously, Jiang Yanfeng felt that he was being trapped, but he still nodded stubbornly, "Yes."
Zhou Zhaonuan was delighted and clapped his hands.
"That's good. Go to your father now and tell him that Princess Chang'an fainted on the way. You hurriedly sent her back and summoned the imperial physician, but Princess Chang'an refused to let him see her. She only wanted to leave the palace and regain her freedom. She's been confined like this, her hands are crippled, her heart is numb, and her feet are bruised. If she stays here any longer, she'll become a cripple."
After the call, Jiang Yanfeng opened his mouth in surprise, waved his hands and backed away. This little princess was too noisy.
"This, this, this... Princess, this is a crime of deceiving the emperor, it is really punishable by death. I dare not..."
Jiang Yanfeng looked up with some embarrassment. The moment he met Zhou Zhaonuan's dark eyes, he... seemed to have been completely defeated. Just when he was about to risk his life, the emperor was training him as a potential prince consort, and he probably wouldn't let him die unless it involved the royal interests.
Zhou Zhaonuan grabbed his arm and said with a solemn oath.
"Don't worry, if Father really wants to kill you, I will fight to the death to protect you."
This one sentence made Jiang Yanfeng even more determined. For the little princess, he would accept it even if it meant climbing mountains of swords and diving into seas of fire.
Jiang Yanfeng nodded, "Okay, I'll go talk to the emperor and ask him to come over."
The heavy stone in Zhou Zhaonuan's heart fell to the ground. Biyu, who was standing beside him, was frightened and her face turned pale. She pulled Zhou Zhaonuan's sleeve with a look of resistance on her face.
"Princess, this isn't a good thing to do. From what I can see, the Emperor was probably really angry in the Pepper Room just now and ordered you to be confined. If you do something like this again, what will happen if the Emperor gets angry and really beats you up? Then you'll end up losing more than you gain."
This Biyu, how could she be so disappointing? Zhou Zhaonuan glared at her and saw Jiang Yanfeng opened his mouth. Without waiting for him to speak, she pushed Jiang Yanfeng and urged him.
"Alright, alright, let's start acting. Remember, you've already promised me. If you don't do it, I'll remember your grudge and never talk to you again in this life."
"This grudge is quite big,"
Jiang Yanfeng immediately perked up and waved his hand.
"No, no, Princess, I'll do it right away. I'll cooperate with you."
Zhou Zhaonuan then revealed a satisfied smile and threatened Biyu that she must bring Doctor Du from the Imperial Hospital over and force him to describe the patient's condition as they described.
Biyu was unwilling in her heart, but there was nothing she could do. Since she had to deal with such a troublesome master, she had no choice but to do it.
After saying that, Zhou Zhaonuan lay down on the ground and then fainted magnificently.
This situation made Jiang Yanfeng and Biyu very anxious.
"Someone, the princess has fainted. Hurry, call the imperial physician."
Biyu and Jiang Yanfeng looked at each other tacitly. One of them ran towards the Imperial Hospital frantically, while the other squatted in front of Zhou Zhaonuan. After taking several deep breaths, he raised his hands in one go, avoiding the important parts, and picked up Zhou Zhaonuan.
He walked very quickly, as if he was afraid of delaying Zhou Zhaonuan's treatment. Along the way, as Zhou Zhaonuan had expected, many people looked at them.
I think such an eye-catching event would naturally attract the attention of the palace people.
The palace maid beside the noble lady was one of them. She had been ordered by her master to go to the embroidery workshop to get new clothes for her master. Now, she ran towards the Xuanzheng Hall in a hurry as if she had taken stimulants. Her master once told her that as long as she encountered anything related to Princess Chang'an, she must do something that would be most beneficial to them in advance.
Concubine Liang didn't know about Zhou Zhaonuan's situation. When she arrived at Xuanzheng Hall, Deshun was guarding outside.
"Your servant pays homage to Her Majesty the Concubine Liang. I wonder what brings Her Majesty the Concubine Liang here at this time?"
