Chapter 390 Imperial Edict from the Capital



After resolving the matter of Yue Wuyan, Sun Ding stepped forward to report to Lin Zao about the spring plowing.

After confirming that there were no problems, the two left, leaving only Lin Zao and Tang Jian behind.

Recalling what happened before she left, Lin Zao asked:

"By the way, have they caught the group that wanted the steelmaking formula?"

When this was mentioned, Tang Jian's face became serious.

"There's been no movement yet, but I've made thorough preparations. If they dare to come, none of them will escape."

Tang Jian was not idle during this time either, because King Cheng attached great importance to this matter and often summoned him to discuss solutions.

In order to completely eliminate the person behind it, the two came up with many ideas. After such a long period of planning, they were basically ready and only needed to wrap things up.

However, there was one piece of bad news that Tang Jian didn't mention.

Suddenly, an imperial decree arrived from the capital, summoning Prince Cheng and his family to the capital.

It seems that now that the treasure map issue has been settled, those people have started causing trouble again.

The purpose is obvious, even without being stated, it concerns the steel knife formula.

After all, Tang Jian's previous battle was truly spectacular. He defeated the Wuyi in the shortest amount of time and even reached a peace agreement.

The news of the weapons had already been spread far and wide by those with ulterior motives.

Upon learning that the King of Cheng possessed such advanced weaponry, those in the capital naturally wouldn't let this opportunity pass.

That's why there was the matter of issuing an imperial decree. Fortunately, it was only a verbal decree from the current emperor, and Prince Cheng refused on the grounds that his wife was newly pregnant and the pregnancy was unstable.

Yes, Princess Cheng was pregnant. The good news came not long after Lin Zao left, and Prince Cheng was so happy that he wanted to open the door wide and hold a three-day banquet.

If it weren't for the fact that it wasn't yet March and therefore not appropriate to publicize it, the entire city of Ganzhou would probably know about this good news.

It was only because Tang Jian was close to King Cheng that he learned of this news. In addition, due to the relationship between Hu Tou Ya Ya and Wei Yu, the two children knew about it even earlier than Tang Jian.

However, even if Prince Cheng refuses the imperial decree from the capital this time, the current emperor will be 60 years old in six months, and Prince Cheng's family will still have to go to the capital to offer their congratulations.

Perhaps the Tang family will also go with Prince Cheng.

Tang Jian thought this way because the imperial edict that came from the capital this time actually mentioned him.

Although it was only a few words, it caught the Emperor's eye, and there is a high chance that they will accompany Prince Cheng to the capital to offer birthday greetings.

At that time, we will face many challenges and dangers.

However, it was too early to tell Lin Zao, so as not to worry her.

Lin Zao was unaware that Tang Jian was hiding something from her. Seeing that he was so confident, she had nothing to worry about.

It was late at night, so the two packed up and went back to their room to rest.

The next morning, Hu Tou and Ya Ya acted spoiled and refused to go to the Prince's Mansion for class.

The reason given was that they hadn't seen their mother in a long time and missed her terribly. They wanted to spend more time with her, and even if they went to school, they wouldn't be able to concentrate on their studies with the teacher, so they needed to ask for a day off.

Tang Jian and Lin Zao were speechless after hearing what the two children said, yet the two still looked completely justified.

Tang's mother, watching from the side, was overjoyed and couldn't help but speak well of her two grandsons.

"Okay, let's give the kids a day off. They can make it up later, it won't cause any problems."

Upon hearing this, Chen Wen and the others next to him immediately looked at Tang Jian and Lin Zao with bright eyes, as they also wanted to ask for a day off!

Lin Zao had already given in her heart. She missed her children just as much as she hadn't seen them in so long, but seeing their adorable appearance, she couldn't help but want to tease them.

"Mother can grant your request, but you must grant me one condition."
