Chapter 264 The Storm Is Coming



When dealing with Nanling, Jia Yi finally used his brain and didn't act recklessly.

He deliberately ordered people to spread rumors in the streets, saying that the Wang family was going to arrange a ghost marriage for Wang Xian.

They've even chosen a woman for the marriage.

She was said to be a girl from a small, aristocratic family who died young.

It was also said that Wang Xian's mother was very satisfied and was already preparing for the betrothal and engagement.

His words, half true and half false, caused quite a stir in the capital.

Because of this "ghost marriage," Wang Xian's marriage to Princess Nanling was brought up again.

Then someone said sarcastically, "Why bother with a ghost marriage? Doesn't the eldest son of the Wang family already have a legitimate fiancée?"

That's incredibly malicious.

It's obvious they're trying to force Princess Nanling to die, to commit suicide for Wang Xian.

Princess Nanling had just emerged from the grief of losing her fiancé when she was subjected to this wave of moral blackmail and public attacks.

Yongchang was so angry that he gritted his teeth, wishing he could grab that scoundrel who spread the rumors and cut him into a thousand pieces.

Princess Nanling heard the rumors circulating outside. She was timid by nature and exceptionally sensitive.

In a moment of despair, he actually hanged himself.

Fortunately, the maid noticed in time and lowered her down from the roof beam.

If it had been any later, Nanling would have perished.

Seeing his daughter's weak appearance and the deep bruise on her neck, Yongchang was both afraid and angry.

She could no longer restrain herself and stormed the palace.

"Helian Gui, that bastard surnamed Jia must die!"

This time, Yongchang didn't throw a tantrum; she solemnly knelt before the saint.

The sage shuddered: his elder sister had started calling him by his full name again.

It is said that ever since he became emperor, almost no one has addressed him by his given name.

The only occasional exception is my older sister.

Of course, in the past, my sister was mostly joking.

This is a way to bring the siblings closer together.

At this moment, the sage could clearly sense his elder sister's anger.

"Oh dear, that Jia Yi, really. He should just fight the powerful families to the death, why did he have to provoke my sister?"

Although the sage needs Jia Yi, this vicious dog, he is not indispensable.

Moreover, after Jia Yi came to power, he vividly demonstrated the idiom "a petty person who gains power".

His words are arrogant and his actions are absurd!

When Jia Yi used these unscrupulous methods to deal with the aristocratic families, the sage was very pleased and delighted.

However, Jia Yi is not very bright, and his attacks are indiscriminate.

Even a powerful dragon like Princess Yongchang dares to provoke her so easily.

The sage had already sentenced Jia Yi to death in his heart.

However, now is not the time.

He still needs Jia Yi to tear the aristocratic families apart again.

The struggle between sages and aristocratic families is now at its most critical juncture.

Even the slightest change on your side could lead to negative consequences.

"Sister! This Jia Yi truly deserves to die!"

The emperor did not act like an emperor in front of Yongchang. He came to his sister and knelt down in front of her.

With patience and a gentle tone, she negotiated with Yongchang, "Give me three more months. Once the three months are up, I will deliver Jia Yi's head to my sister!"

Princess Yongchang paused for a moment, then held up three fingers. "Three months? It's a deal? Agui, you can't lie to your older sister!"

Hearing his sister call him so affectionately, her eyes filled with endless dependence and trust, the sage felt a pang of sadness in his heart.

He nodded vigorously, "Don't worry, Sister, Ah Gui would never lie to you!"

"That's good!"

Princess Yongchang wiped away her tears forcefully, then changed the subject, showing concern for her younger brother's health, "You don't need to be too anxious. Whether it's my affairs or the affairs of the court, we should take it slowly."

"If you ruin your health, who can your mother and I rely on?"

The sage felt increasingly at ease.

She's his own sister after all; even if he's wronged, she'll still be understanding for his sake.

She doesn't rush him, doesn't complain, and even feels sorry for him instead.

The sage was moved and, with a wave of his hand, bestowed upon his sister countless gold and silver treasures.

She stormed into the palace, and when she left, Princess Yongchang was followed by two eunuchs carrying a large wooden box.

Yongchang looked smug and proud.

But once she got into the carriage and closed the door, the smile on her face vanished instantly.

Three months?

She couldn't wait even a day!

He really is my good brother. Even though he knows I've been wronged, he still tells me to be considerate!

Show compassion my ass!

She was a noblewoman of the royal family, the most beloved daughter of the late emperor.

Now, however, he is being humiliated by a commoner who seeks fame and fortune.

"Once he became emperor, he was no longer my good brother!"

Looking towards the palace through the car window, Princess Yongchang felt a chill in her heart.

She clenched her fist tightly, her fingertips digging fiercely into her soft palm.

The slight pain helped Princess Yongchang regain her composure.

Don't rush!

It must not flare up!

Even if we need to take action, we should do it slowly! qqxsnew

for example--

Princess Yongchang's mind conjured up the face of a certain nephew and the many promises he had made—

I admire my cousin from Nanling, but unfortunately my maternal clan is of lowly status and I am not favored by my father.

He's really not good enough for his cousin.

Princess Yongchang didn't believe a word of this.

However, she was still somewhat tempted.

Cooperating with my nephew, marrying my daughter to him, and then supporting my grandson to become emperor in the future seems like a good idea.

It is said that the story of keeping a mistress in a golden house is a tragedy.
