Chapter 190 He Will Die Sooner or Later
Jiang Jiu lowered his eyes: "Are you going to drive him out of the capital and return him to his fiefdom?"
Princess Zhaoyang sighed: "Xiaojiu, have you fallen in love with him? Grandmother tells you, you must not fall in love with him, he will die sooner or later..."
Jiang Jiu suddenly raised his eyes, with infinite sadness in his eyes.
"Why? Grandma, he is your granddaughter's husband..."
Princess Zhaoyang never expected that her granddaughter would fall in love with Zhao Zhuoxi.
"Oh, it's my fault for not telling you earlier. I thought he wouldn't wake up, but I didn't expect that he would not only wake up, but also regain power..."
"But..."
Princess Zhaoyang didn't continue her words but changed the subject.
"After you give birth to the child, you will still be the Princess of Qi. Wouldn't it be good for you to stay in the capital to accompany your grandmother? If you feel lonely, you can also learn from the eldest princess..."
Jiang Jiu stood up angrily: "What did grandma say? Since she let her granddaughter give birth to a child, she must want her husband and wife to be harmonious and the family to be reunited, but grandma wants..."
Princess Zhaoyang obviously didn't want to say so much to her.
"The King of Qi only has that lady in his heart. He treats you the same way. Why do you keep thinking about her? As a man..."
Indeed, in addition to marrying her, Zhao Zhuoxi also married two concubines.
But Jiang Jiu knew that Zhao Zhuoxi treated her differently.
Jiang Jiu asked: "Why can't we let Prince Qi be the regent? It would be good if he were the regent..."
Princess Zhaoyang sighed: "Forget it, there is no need to say so much to a little girl like you. Anyway, this is all my grandmother has to say. During this period of time, you should stay at home and don't come back to the palace..."
Jiang Jiu had a bad feeling in his heart that the Sixth Prince was going to take action against Zhao Zhuoxi.
Zhao Zhuoxi vomits blood every day. I don’t know if it has anything to do with the Sixth Prince.
"No, grandma, the prince's health is getting worse and worse. I don't know what's wrong with him these days, but he's been vomiting blood every day. I want to find a famous doctor to see him..."
Princess Zhaoyang smiled proudly: "See, grandma knew that he would not live long...Okay, you go back and take good care of your baby. Whether the baby is a daughter or a granddaughter, they will be your support in the future...You are the Princess of Qi forever..."
Seeing that Princess Zhaoyang said nothing, Jiang Jiu did not ask any more questions.
With sad faces, they took Chunhua back to their own yard.
They had only walked halfway when Jiang Jiu suddenly said.
"Ouch, I forgot to give the jade pendant to my grandmother. All right, you guys go back to the yard and pack your things. I'll be right back..."
It was just to exchange something, and Suman's courtyard was not far from Princess Zhaoyang's courtyard, so the maids did not follow her.
Chunhua stayed there and waited for her.
Princess Zhaoyang never expected that Jiang Jiu would strike back.
In the room, Nanny Xing was worried about Suman.
"Your Highness, is the poison of Prince Qi really incurable? If the prince dies, the princess will definitely be very sad."
Princess Zhaoyang snorted coldly: "Why should she be sad about being a substitute for another woman? Believe it or not, if you tell King Qi that the woman is still alive, will he still care about her and the child in her belly..."
Nanny Xing didn't say anything else.
Princess Zhaoyang continued, "It's not hopeless. As long as she is willing to give up the baby in her belly..."
Jiang Jiu wanted to hear more news, but Princess Zhaoyang had already started chatting with Nanny Xing about family matters...
Jiang Jiu hurried back, his heart in turmoil.
Sort out the news.
First, there is an antidote to Zhao Zhuoxi’s poison, but the antidote is related to her child?
Second, Princess Zhaoyang just said that she was not dead...
But she clearly remembered that her body had been burned to ashes.
Did she remember it wrong?
The key point is that her soul is gone. She is not dead, so why keep a corpse?
There was no such thing as a vegetative state in ancient times.
What did Princess Zhaoyang mean when she said that?
Jiang Jiu decided to go back and explore again if he had the chance...
Prince Qi's Mansion, study.
Zhao Zhuoxi gathered several capable generals around him, surrounded the sand table in the capital, and began to give orders.
"The princess returned to Princess Zhaoyang's residence, which means they have already started to take action."
"During this period, we must strengthen our vigilance and guard these places well. There should be a cannon at each city gate, and another one at the south gate."
Lu Ming nodded: "Is the delegation from Nanli Kingdom coming?"
Zhao Zhuoxi pursed his lips and was about to speak when suddenly, he spat out another mouthful of blood.
This time, he felt dizzy and his legs and feet were weak.
"Master, master..." The two brothers Lu Ming and Lu An supported him on the left and right.
Zhao Zhuoxi stood up and waved his hands: "I'm fine, let's continue..."
"The Nanli Kingdom is different from the Beidi. The Beidi people were persuaded by King Ling, and they have many tribes. As long as we can trade with Daning and their people have food to eat, they will not invade us."
"Nanli is different. The emperor of Nanli is warlike. Their country is rich and powerful, and they have always coveted our Daning. It is very likely that they will take our Daning by accident.
Let us return Daning to Nanli."
The two surrounding countries, one is a jackal and the other is a tiger and leopard, neither of them is easy to deal with.
Now both countries have sent envoys to negotiate the marriage, and things may seem calm, but who knows if there are turbulent waves underneath.
"The most important thing is to send people to patrol around the town's public residence regularly."
Lu Ming said, "Duke Zhenguo fought a great battle with Nanli last year and killed 200,000 of their soldiers, including the family of Duke Huguo. The master is probably afraid that the people of Nanli will come to seek revenge."
Zhao Zhuoxi nodded: "Now we are in Daning. No matter how chaotic it is internally, we must be united externally and not make any chaos. Once we find any movement of the envoys from Nanli Kingdom, we will kill them all and make sure they never come back."
Even if there is a war, the worst that can happen is that the Duke of Zhenguo and his family will go to the south to guard it.
After assigning the tasks, everyone left.
Zhao Zhuoxi suddenly spat out another mouthful of blood.
Lu Ming was anxious: "Master, please ask another doctor to come and take a look. You have been vomiting blood more frequently in the past few days."
Zhao Zhuoxi wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and remained silent.
"The princess is in the princess's residence. Don't let her know. Things have been a bit chaotic lately. Let her stay in the princess's residence to take care of her pregnancy."
In the princess's mansion, Jiang Jiu lived here obediently for a few days.
Early that morning, she went to pay her respects to Princess Zhaoyang and saw that the maids in the mansion were all very excited.
Su Rui was also dressed very elegantly and was in Princess Zhaoyang's room with Madam Su.
"Man'er, you're here. I heard today that the Nanli Kingdom is coming to Beijing. I heard that they brought a lot of beautiful gifts. Let's go and see the excitement together."
Jiang Jiu didn't really want to go, and Princess Zhaoyang also said, "There are too many people, so don't let her go..."
Su Rui lowered her eyelids and glanced at Su Man. She was about to persuade her again, but was stopped by Madam Su.
"Okay, if she doesn't want to go, forget it, Mom will go with you."
Su Rui pouted and nodded reluctantly.
After greeting everyone, everyone went back home, and Jiang Jiu suddenly wanted to go to the street again.
Mainly, I wanted to get out of the house and take the opportunity to see Zhao Zhuoxi. I wonder how his health is.
Just when Jiang Jiu was about to reach Su Rui's yard, he heard Su Rui say hatefully.
"Today is a good opportunity. If she can go out with me, I will definitely make sure she never comes back..."
