"But then again, Zhao Yu has set his sights on you. You have to be careful. Although Zhao Yu wouldn't force himself on you, he might even resort to such despicable tactics now."
"You are in a dangerous situation now, why don't you come with me?"
Jiang Yi remained calm and asked, "Where are you taking me?"
"It's impossible to go to the palace. My current situation is not good. If I keep you by my side, I will put you in the whirlpool of public opinion."
"I can only do the same as Zhao Yu and place you outside."
He speaks the truth.
He is indeed still immature and cannot give her a legitimate status, which is why he has been enduring it.
He could only protect her safety.
Jiang Yi didn't really care about this. She was more concerned about another thing. "You said before that you wanted to use me to provoke a dispute between Prince Su and the Zhao family. If I go with you, will this method not work?"
The emperor said, "It's not impossible, but the effect won't be that obvious."
"I informed Prince Su earlier that you were taken away by Zhao Yu. Prince Su did not want to alert the enemy, so he has been searching for your whereabouts in secret."
"Now that we can't find it, we should probably get anxious."
"He was actually a little anxious before, but not enough. He had to go to the extreme of desperation."
"He has some hidden cards in his hand. If it really comes to that, the Zhao family will be in trouble."
When the Zhao family and Prince Su are both defeated, that will be the emperor's chance.
Jiang Yi is this opportunity.
Jiang Yi said, "Then I won't leave."
Life is precious, but she doesn't want to just live.
As long as Prince Su and Xu Youqi are still alive, she will always be in the shadow of the past.
She wanted to live her life again and didn't want to live a miserable life like before.
and.......
She looked at the emperor.
She also wanted to do something for him, rather than just being a dodder behind a man.
This is the only way to live up to the meaning of her new life.
Mountains will fall if you rely on them, you can only rely on yourself.
She wanted to stand shoulder to shoulder with him.
"Even if you leave, I will get what I want. It will just be a little later, but I have the patience."
The emperor said again.
Jiang Yi said: "But if we do this, the emperor will be alerted."
"I don't want to put you in danger because of me. Besides, this isn't just your problem. I want revenge, too."
She insisted.
Seeing that she insisted, the emperor didn't say anything else.
"If you are willing, I will naturally help you."
"Xu Chong." The emperor suddenly called out.
Xu Chong jumped down.
The emperor looked at him and asked, "I asked you to protect Jiang Yi, why didn't you come out just now?"
Xu Chong hesitated for a moment before saying, "Just now, I saw that Miss Jiang was well prepared and her situation was not completely unsolvable."
"Besides, if my subordinates come down, it will inevitably alert the enemy."
The emperor said directly: "Go back to the palace and receive fifty lashes of the cane."
"Your Majesty?" Xu Chong was stunned. "This subordinate is also doing this for your own good."
The emperor's eyes turned slightly cold. "I have assigned you to Xiaoyi's side. Your mission is only one, and that is to protect Xiaoyi's safety. Other than that, you should not think about anything else."
"You made a mistake, so you should be punished. From now on, you don't need to come here. I will send someone else."
The secret guards around the emperor are different from others. He has lived under the empress dowager's nose since he was a child, and the servants around him are all arranged by the empress dowager.
They said they were sent to protect his safety, but it seemed more like they were sent by the Queen Mother to monitor him.
When the emperor grew older, he began to win people's hearts, and then used these people to look for good talents outside and personally train secret guards.
So these people have a very close relationship with him, and sometimes even act on their own.
They are undoubtedly the most loyal, but sometimes, this excessive loyalty can be annoying.
"I am the emperor. I know better than you what to do and what not to do. The issues you are considering are what I should consider. If there is a next time, you don't need to see me. Take him away."
His tone was majestic and undisturbed, and it was at this moment that Jiang Yi truly realized that the man next to him was an emperor.
Shen Congzhao's expression softened in an instant, "I am also at fault this time. I failed to protect you."
"This has nothing to do with you," she said hurriedly.
The emperor said, "Are you being polite to me? You are not treating me as one of your own."
Jiang Yi didn't know what to say.
"Remember what I taught you before? If anyone dares to do something unkind to you, kick him in the gut. Every time he sees you from now on, he'll naturally think of that scene and wilt."
Jiang Yi nodded, "I will!"
Time always passed quickly, and the emperor left reluctantly.
The next day, Zhao Yu came again. This time he came specifically to see Jiang Yi.
He stared at Jiang Yi's face, trying to see any trace of panic on it, but there was none.
She is gentle, but this gentleness makes people feel uncomfortable.
It was as if she was secretly competing with her.
It was as if she knew everything he did and didn't care.
She doesn't take him seriously!
