Chapter 188 Asking Him to Marry Princess Beidi

However, Zhao Zhuoran thought differently from the emperor.

Privately, Princess Beidi has fallen in love with him, and he wants to use Princess Beidi to steal the method of making cannons.

"Ninth brother, I have good news for you. Princess Beidi fell in love with you at first sight and begged my brother to marry you."

Zhao Zhuoxi raised his eyebrows lightly: "It's good, but the number of concubines in my palace is full. If the princess wants to marry me, she can only be a wife. I don't know if the princess can bear the grievance..."

Princess Beidi was reluctant at first, and she glanced at Zhao Zhuoran quickly, furious.

"What? You want me to be a lady... I would rather not marry."

It’s better not to marry her. Zhao Zhuoxi doesn’t want to marry her either.

Zhao Zhuoran was full of doubts: "As far as I know, your concubine is no other than Princess Zhaoyang's other granddaughter. Didn't you cancel the engagement with the girl from the Qin family and let her marry someone else?"

Zhao Zhuoxi smiled gently: "Sixth brother, you don't know that the other concubine position is reserved for the granddaughter of the Duke of Zhenguo. After she celebrates her coming of age this year, I will come to propose marriage..."

The granddaughter of the Duke of Zhen...

Zhao Zhuoran and the emperor looked at each other, and the emperor nodded slightly.

During the more than half a year that Zhao Zhuoran led his troops to fight, Yao Qin, the granddaughter of Duke Zhenguo, somehow fell in love with Zhao Zhuoxi and pursued him relentlessly, never missing any opportunity to see him.

Nowadays, everyone in the capital knows about her, even though Zhao Zhuoxi doesn't like her.

But she is the granddaughter of the Duke of Zhen. For the Duke of Zhen, it is not a loss to marry her.

Zhao Zhuoran said nothing, and the emperor had to wave his hands.

"That's fine. I'll choose another one for Princess Beidi.

A marriage."

After Zhao Zhuoxi came out of Yu's study and walked for a long time, Zhao Zhuoran revealed a ferocious expression.

"Royal brother, he is pushing me so hard, it's time to teach him a lesson."

The emperor nodded in agreement: "I heard that Princess Qi is pregnant, so his love poison should be able to detect it."

Zhao Zhuoran snorted coldly: "The Hehuan poison needs to be cured by the Purple Car River. I don't know whether Prince Qi's Mansion will choose to save him or the child..."

The emperor rubbed his head and said, "Sixth brother, are your troops still in the suburbs of Beijing?"

Zhao Zhuoran nodded: "Still here."

The emperor sighed, "My health is failing. The imperial edict has been written. When the time comes, I ask my sixth brother to take care of Concubine Gu Xian's child..."

The emperor's health had been deteriorating since the empress was bombed, and it was Zhao Zhuoran's idea to make Concubine Xian pregnant.

Zhao Zhuoran could not be the emperor, but he could be the regent.

When the emperor passed away, he immediately enthroned the emperor's only son as the king, and he became the regent, and the whole world still belonged to him.

In the following days, the emperor was busy choosing a husband for Princess Beidi.

Zhao Zhuoran also did not move.

There was an eerie tranquility in the capital.

Jiang Jiu and Zhao Zhuoran moved back to Prince Qi's Mansion. On this day, she was resting in her pregnancy. The autumn weather was crisp and the flowers in the garden were in full bloom. She heard the voices of two little maids talking.

"I heard that the prince has been going to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion every day these days, saying it was for some official business, but in fact it was for Miss Qin."

"This is not normal. Our prince is supposed to have two concubines. The Qin family girl was rejected, so naturally we have to choose another one. The granddaughter of the Duke of Zhenguo fell in love with our prince at first sight and has been clamoring to marry him."

"But she is ugly and has a bad temper. Our prince originally disliked her. Why is it that now there is a rumor that he wants to marry her?"

"Isn't it because he has his eyes on the Duke of Zhen? Besides, she is ugly, not as pretty as our princess, so she won't be favored by the prince..."

The two little maids walked and talked, and gradually walked away.

After hearing this, Chunhua stamped her feet in anger: "People in the palace are becoming more and more unruly. They have even started to talk about the master."

Qiuyue was a man of action, and she immediately said, "I will go and teach them a lesson..."

Jiang Jiu however pulled the man back.

"No, it's just a small matter..."

Zhao Zhuoxi's plan to marry a concubine was actually his own, and Jiang Jiu was unwilling to interfere.

I just didn't expect that the granddaughter of Duke Zhenguo would have such a bad reputation.

She is ugly, has a bad temper, and chases men. How can a girl chase men? Men will look down on her.

Jiang Jiu felt a little reluctant to really marry into the palace and waste her life there. After all, she was only fourteen years old, not even fifteen.

It’s just because Zhao Zhuoxi is too good-looking.

Jiang Jiu didn't care. He walked around the garden and went back to his room.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I reached the Moon Gate, I heard Lu Ming's anxious voice.

"Master, he's vomiting blood again. This is not good. We need to find a famous doctor to see him."

Nichang thought for a moment and said, "Let's ask Chuyu. We've asked all the doctors in the palace, and they all said the master is fine. But how can the master not be sick if he keeps vomiting blood?"

Lu Ming sighed: "Ever since Madam Jiang passed away, Chu Yu has disliked our prince. She invited him three or four times, but he declined two or three times. I don't know what the princess said to her before she agreed to come last time..."

Nichang also hesitated: "If it were in the past, I would definitely ask the princess to invite Chuyu, but now the princess is pregnant, and the master won't let her tell her..."

Jiang Jiu's heart tightened. Why did Zhao Zhuoxi suddenly fall ill?

As his bedmate, she didn't even know it.

I walked quickly to the Moon Gate, my throat trembling with shock.

"What disease did the prince have?"

Lu Ming and Ni Chang originally met here and were talking in private, but they didn't expect that the princess heard them.

Kneel down quickly and plead guilty.

Jiang Jiu was pulled up by them: "Now is not the time to talk about this, hurry up, pack up, I will go and invite Chu Yu in person..."

Jiang Jiu came to Chu Yu's pharmacy again, but unexpectedly Chu Yu was not there.

The apprentice at the pharmacy said that Xiao Yimo was injured in the explosion, so Chu Yu went home to take care of Xiao Yimo.

Jiang Jiu went to the courtyard they bought in the capital. Besides Xiao Yimo and his wife, there lived Nanny Qian.

Jiang Jiu had wanted to tell them the truth for a long time.

Then he led people to their yard.

Who knew that the yard was empty? I went to find the woman who was in charge of the yard and found out that they had actually returned to Suzhou.

At this time Lu Ming hurriedly found Jiang Jiu.

"Princess, don't look for it anymore. This is all the prince's idea."

"The prince handed over all the business in Suzhou to Master Xiao, and transferred Mr. Gu from Suzhou. From now on, Mr. Gu will be in charge of the business in Beijing."

It turned out that Zhao Zhuoxi had reorganized her business.

As Zhao Zhuoxi's rear base, Sucheng was also where Yiye Pianzhou and Jiang Jiu's "Six One" business companies had all been laid out.

Yiye Pianzhou's businesses covered money houses, grain stores, real estate, silk, etc. Later, after being rectified by Jiang Jiu, some of the businesses became royal merchants.

All the six businesses were managed by Xiao Yimo and became Zhao Zhuoxi's private property.

As for artillery, explosives, iron ore weapons, etc., they also became Zhao Zhuoxi's private property.

At this time, Zhao Zhuoxi had money, soldiers and artillery. As long as he wanted, he could dethrone the emperor with a single order.

Just a month ago, a few days after Zhao Zhuoxi discovered that Jiang Jiu was pregnant, he suddenly started vomiting blood.
