Chapter 27 Admitting Defeat



However, Zhao Shu finally understood what Prince Jin had done that day. It turned out that he had become more insightful. If that prince hadn't said those words, he would probably be one of those who were demoted along with him.

Before she could speak, Xiao Zhuzi continued, "Princess, the Empress Dowager has ordered Prince Jin to take over the Imperial Clan Court and reform its system."

Zhao Shu nodded. Reform was a certainty. The surrendered princes needed to be settled. There were so many princes; they couldn't all be killed. A proper way to deal with them had to be found.

It is reasonable to entrust this matter to the Prince of Jin.

As long as it's not handed over to Prince Yong's mansion, it's reasonable to hand it over to anyone; it's not a lucrative position.

"Don't worry about this matter. Just keep an eye on the Prince of Jin's residence in the future. By the way, has the Emperor woken up yet?" If Emperor Mingde wakes up, Zhao Bi's death will be imminent.

Xiao Zhu Zixu wiped away a bead of sweat, relieved that he had made thorough preparations before coming. He nodded, "She's awake. There were thieves who broke into Jiangying Garden last night, but they were captured. Don't worry, Princess."

"Go to the Seventh Prince's residence and inform Seventh Brother to go and serve the Emperor. Remember, do not let anyone break in, understand?" Zhao Shu instructed anxiously, knowing that Zhao Bi's men must be frantically searching for Emperor Mingde.

We absolutely must not let him find it, otherwise he will have another opportunity to make trouble.

"Yes, does the princess have any further instructions?" He had nothing more to report.

Zhao Shu shook her head. "That's all. Go now."

Xiao Zhu bowed and withdrew. He left Sendai Courtyard shortly afterward. Prince Yong looked at Zhao Shu with a smile, his eyes filled with pride and guilt.

I am proud that my daughter is so intelligent.

The thing I feel guilty about is that he is so intelligent, yet he didn't teach me.

As soon as Xiao Zhuzi left, before Prince Yong could speak, Uncle Fu rushed over, "Your Highness, Princess, a letter from the Huo family."

Uncle Fu handed the letter to Prince Yong. Zhao Shu glanced at it and saw that it was addressed to "Your Highness".

The handwriting was delicate and beautiful, clearly written by a woman. It must be Aunt Dan. Zhao Shu's heart began to pound, and she felt inexplicably uneasy.

"Father, I want to see," Zhao Shu said coquettishly, tugging at Prince Yong's sleeve.

Originally, Prince Yong did not intend to let Zhao Shu read the letter, but Zhao Shu rarely acted coquettishly towards him, and he had not rejected Sun Yun, so he felt extremely guilty. After thinking for a moment, he handed over the letter in his hand, saying, "Take a look. I will go to Marshal Wei to ask about your teacher's situation."

"The King of Shu has been in the capital for quite some time now, why hasn't Teacher returned yet?" Zhao Shu was also quite worried about Luo Hu.
