Chapter 174 Taking her to see the Prime Minister



Upon hearing this, Jiang Yu suddenly laughed, but there was little joy in his laughter.

"Isn't it ridiculous? My father has never taken family ties seriously, yet he demands that his sons value them. It's contradictory and disgusting."

Wei Wei knew what he was feeling; he was thinking about many things from the past again.

All one could do was offer the comfort: "The emperor's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea; he can do whatever he wants."

"All everyone has to do is cater to the will of the emperor. We should just ignore him."

"After this matter has passed for a while, then we can start targeting the Empress. By then, your plan will be more than half successful."

When the Empress was mentioned, Jiang Yu's smile slowly faded.

"Although she doesn't manage things much, she really dotes on her own grandson."

"I wish the position of Crown Prince would fall into the hands of her grandson, who hasn't even grown up yet and whose bedroom is full of palace maids."

Wei Wei was somewhat surprised: "Is that child really that absurd?"

Looking at Jiang Yu's complicated face, Wei Wei tugged at his sleeve: "Since he's so useless, let's just make sure he has no chance of becoming the heir apparent."

"Destroy the Empress's last shred of hope and make her determined to push you to the throne."

Wei Wei has never been a naive and clueless girl; her methods are simple yet brutal.

Besides, she never intended to kill the child; she simply wanted to make him leave the track that was never meant for him.

Since you've embarked on this path, there will always be some tears of failure along the way.

Jiang Yu's gaze was fixed on her, his affection no longer concealed: "Awei, having you is my blessing."

Wei Wei blushed slightly, and her smile became a little shy.

Jiang Yu gently covered her hand with his, and the atmosphere between them seemed to change.

The sound of her heartbeat grew louder and louder, and Wei Wei didn't know where to look.

It's a pity that although she has lived two lives, she is still completely clueless about matters of the heart.

Just as she was wondering what to do, Jiang Yu's low laughter reached her ears.

It also made her ears itch: "In the past two weeks in the capital, has there been any emperor you particularly liked?"

Why are we suddenly bringing up such unrelated things again?

Wei Wei looked up at him; his eyes were so deep and unfathomable, as if they were about to suck Wei Wei in.

Suppressing her panic, she asked, "I haven't inquired about these things. What's wrong?"

Jiang Yu didn't answer, but instead asked, "What do you think of Prime Minister Gu's residence? Apart from Young Master Gu's wife being a bit troublesome, the rest of the household is quite nice."

Wei Wei couldn't help but laugh: "Just tell me what your plans are. Asking me like this is really confusing me."

Jiang Yu patted her hair comfortingly: "I will take you to see Prime Minister Gu in three days, and I will tell you everything you want to know then."

They still refused to say.

However, when it came to Prime Minister Gu, Wei Wei thought of little A Yu again, wondering how he and his mother were doing now.

She looked at Jiang Yu's mysterious expression and originally wanted to ask him something.

But as soon as she looked up, she was met with Jiang Yu's drowning eyes.

Could this guy be planning something?

Wei Wei's mind was racing with all sorts of thoughts when she saw Jiang Yu leaning closer to her.

A faint fragrance emanated from him, almost overwhelming Wei Wei.

Her gaze softened, and when their eyes met, they found themselves drawn in without realizing it.

Before she could say anything, she heard footsteps outside.

It was Leng Pusheng who brought Xiaoyue back.

The ambiguous atmosphere vanished instantly, and Wei Wei, her heart pounding, immediately sat up straight.

However, the blush on her face did not fade, and her shy appearance made Jiang Yu unconsciously move his throat again.

It's a bit of a pity, but I also feel relieved.

Just now, he almost did something that would frighten Wei.

His self-control seems to have suddenly deteriorated.

When Xiaoyue'er saw Jiang Yu, she was a little awkward, but she quickly composed herself and greeted him respectfully, "Seventh Prince."

Jiang Yu put aside his still somewhat distracted thoughts and nodded calmly: "You're very thoughtful."

To distract her, he added a reassuring remark: "Don't be nervous, I've never blamed you."

Xiao Yue'er breathed a sigh of relief, only to hear Wei Wei ask him, "Didn't I tell you to just deliver a message and come back? Why did it take you so long? Did something happen?"

Xiao Yue'er immediately nodded: "When I went there, I don't know what Princess Changting and Princess Changhe said. Princess Changhe looked like she was terrified and was acting a bit crazy."

"She was crying and screaming, as if she had suffered some kind of shock."

"After I explained my purpose, Princess Changting smiled indifferently and told me that she would soon be taking Princess Changhe back to the palace, so we didn't need to worry."

Wei Wei was somewhat surprised that Jiang Changting wanted to take Jiang Changhe back; there must be a reason she didn't know.

"Want to go and see what's going on? How about I take you there?"

Just as I was frowning in thought, those words rang in my ears.

Although Jiang Yu hasn't seen her recently, he basically knows her whereabouts.

The fact that she and Jiang Changting became friends surprised him greatly.

But mostly I was happy.

It's a wonderful thing that she was able to find good friends in the capital.

Wei Wei was indeed somewhat worried about why Jiang Changting would choose to bring Jiang Changhe back, saying that she had forgiven Jiang Changhe, which was obviously impossible.

Hearing Jiang Yu say this, he agreed.

In order not to delay their business, the two quickly left the house.

Jiang Yu wanted to go in, and none of the guards outside the Ming Prince's Mansion stopped him.

However, they recognized Wei Wei, who had visited several times before, and were all surprised to see her walking with the prince.

Wei Wei didn't care about their expressions and led Jiang Yu straight to the Liuli Pavilion.

As soon as I stepped into the backyard, I saw that the main yard was in chaos.

The incredulous cries of the Princess Consort and the hurried footsteps of the maids and servants all reminded her that something had happened inside.

The two exchanged a glance, then strode off in that direction.

There were many people standing in the main courtyard.

Even Jiang Changting stood expressionless to the side.

Meanwhile, Princess Ming was screaming in the main hall, her voice filled with anguish: "Summon the imperial physician! Summon the imperial physician at once!"

In her arms, the King Ming, covered in blood, was unconscious.
