If we look at it from another angle, when Aze's background had not been exposed, if he were in his shoes, perhaps he would also be at a loss like this.
Xu Tianze nodded perfunctorily and followed the virtuous king's queen to the palace of the virtuous concubine. Even the most gentle person would find it difficult to accept the situation if their son was abducted, right?
After struggling for a while and before he could come up with a solution, he had already arrived at Concubine Shu's palace.
"Don't worry, I'm here for you." The wise king was originally planning to walk straight in, but when he thought of the people around him, he stopped and turned to look at Xu Tianze.
He had no way to make Aze less nervous, but he could give Aze strength and let him know that he was always there.
Xu Tianze was originally feeling upset, but when he looked up and met the clear eyes of the wise king, he instantly felt a little calmer.
Then he smiled and nodded at the virtuous king, took the virtuous king's hand and walked straight in.
It is a blessing rather than a curse. Since he has already come this far, there is no point in hesitating about it. It would be better to just go in directly.
Concubine Shu had been sitting on her couch waiting for a long time. When Xu Tianze and her son came in, she immediately saw their tightly clasped hands.
There was a faint smile on his face, but there was a cheering sound in his heart. If he hadn't been pinching his fingertips all the time, he would have been unable to suppress the smile on his face.
"Your son pays homage to the Concubine Mother." / "Xu Tianze pays homage to the Concubine Shu."
When she saw two people bowing to her with their heads down, so that she couldn't see her facial expression, an extremely mysterious smile instantly appeared on her face. She looked at her son on the left and Xu Tianze on the right.
Look, they are such a perfect match when they stand together. How come her son is so lucky? How come she is so lucky?
Xue Cui, Shu Fei's personal maid, felt a little ashamed when she saw the ecstasy on her mistress's face.
In front of the wise king, the queen still has to maintain some dignity, but those who serve her personally know best that what the queen likes to read most is the story of Long Yang's love.
The prince's actions had already hit the Empress right in the heart. If she hadn't still cared about her own face, she would have probably danced with joy.
Didn’t you see that the look in his own queen’s eyes now revealed a gossipy light, and her face was like a cat stealing fish, unable to hold back a sly smile.
But the prince and Lord Xu were still kneeling, so Xue Cui had to cough dryly a few times and quietly remind her queen.
Concubine Shu was reminded by her personal maid and only then remembered what she was going to do. She coughed strategically: "Get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xu Tianze stood up respectfully, but he felt a little uneasy and lost in his heart.
The Concubine hesitated for so long before asking them to stand up, which must have meant that she was dissatisfied with him. Just now, he could feel the Concubine's constant gaze on him.
Unexpectedly, he managed to deal with the most difficult emperor, but he had to fall into the trap of Concubine Shu. It seemed that he had been living too smoothly before and was a little too proud of himself.
"Sir Xu, I've heard of you a long time ago. You are a rare young talent." Concubine Shu focused all her attention on Xu Tianze, maintaining her outward dignity.
That is not only rare, but ever since she knew about her son's secret feelings for Xu Tianze, Concubine Shu has secretly sent people to investigate again and again.
She had originally had no hope for her son. After all, in her opinion, Xu Tianze had been able to stand firm until now, and his perseverance, planning, and character were all excellent.
Such people are either not keen on love or simply will not open their hearts easily.
But no one expected that Jiang'er, this brat, actually had some skills and was able to capture the man directly.
"I thank the Concubine Shu for her praise. Your Highness is also an extremely outstanding person." Xu Tianze's heart skipped a beat when he heard the Concubine Shu's praise, but he still smiled and took over the topic to praise the virtuous king.
"Him? He is not as good as you, and he is not worthy of you." Concubine Shu looked at her son with disdain. Although he looked like a decent human being, he was still a little lacking.
After all, family members know their own business.
When Xu Tianze heard the disgust in Concubine Shu's words, he looked up in surprise. He knew how outstanding Ajiang was.
The Concubine Shu's disdain might be a veiled criticism, implying that Xu Tianze is not worthy of the virtuous king.
Come to think of it, given his current status and Ajiang's status, he is basically a short-lived ghost and is indeed not worthy of her.
"Your Majesty is right, Xu Tianze has woken up. I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave now." Xu Tianze bowed to Concubine Shu with a disappointed look on his face, then turned and walked out.
Now that the matter has been made clear, there is no point for him to stay here. It is better for him to leave quickly so as not to disturb their mother-son time.
Concubine Shu originally disliked her son, but she was stunned when she heard Xu Tianze's words. She didn't think she said anything wrong. Her son was indeed not worthy of him.
Why does Xu Tianze seem so angry? Could it be that he is protecting her son because she dislikes him?
Wow!
"Mother." The wise king became anxious when he saw this. Why was his mother so out of shape today? She was usually an extremely shrewd person.
Didn't he know how ambiguous his words were? This directly caused Aze to misunderstand him. He had told his mother more than once after he and Aze confirmed their relationship.
Why did he still fail at the critical moment?
"Aze, you misunderstood. That's not what your mother meant. Your mother just simply wanted to praise you." The wise king quickly stood up and grabbed Xu Tianze, preventing him from leaving.
If this misunderstanding is not resolved, then his future will be completely over.
"Mother, why don't you explain?" The virtuous king turned around and saw the virtuous concubine still eating watermelon there, and couldn't help feeling helpless.
After all, he knew too little about his mother, otherwise he would not have fallen into such an embarrassing situation.
Concubine Shu also knew that her previous statement was somewhat ambiguous. She was about to explain, but when she saw her son's expression, she just wanted to watch the show.
After all, this was the first time she saw this brat panicking, even though she had always been unruly and indifferent since she was a child.
The more he looked, the more curious he became, and the more interesting he found it, so he forgot about Xu Tianze. He only hurried to stop when he saw that the man was about to walk out the door.
Watching the show is one thing, but if he really let the person go, he didn't know how the brat would blame him.
"Since Jiang'er calls you Aze, then I'll call you Ze'er." Concubine Shu stepped forward and took Xu Tianze's hand, with a gentle smile in her eyes. "Mother means that this brat is a toad trying to eat swan meat, not that I am against you."
When Xu Tianze heard Concubine Shu describe himself and the virtuous king in this way, he was stunned for a moment. He looked at the virtuous king in disbelief.
