"Cheng'er doesn't know either. I suddenly had abdominal pain, dizziness and fatigue tonight," Jiang Cheng said weakly in a low voice.
"Imperial Physician, come and take a look!" Ji Xi said loudly, and an imperial physician immediately came forward, carefully felt Jiang Cheng's pulse, and then turned back to report to Ji Xi, "Your Majesty, Miss Jiang ate something bad, and her stomach is upset! I'll prescribe two doses of medicine, and she'll be fine after taking them!"
Ji Xi said coldly, "How could such a thing happen in my villa? Come on, drag everyone in the kitchen out and give them thirty lashes!"
"Yes!" The guard took the order and went forward.
Jiang Yan remained silent. He felt that Jiang Cheng's illness was strange, but he had something important to tell Jiang Cheng, so he stood up and said, "Your Majesty, we haven't seen each other for many days. I want to talk alone. I wonder if Your Majesty..."
When Ji Xi heard this, he couldn't wait to leave, so he said loudly,
"That's fine. You two have a deep father-daughter relationship. Marquis Anle and I will not disturb you. King Zhongyi can stay in this villa tonight. I have someone prepare a room for King Zhongyi. It's late now. If you have anything to say, please talk tomorrow!"
"Yes!" Jiang Yan bowed and gave Shen Yuheng a look, asking him to report what they had just discussed to the emperor.
Shen Yuheng nodded secretly, meaning to leave the matter to him. Jiang Yan was relieved. After sending the seal away, he stood in front of Jiang Cheng's couch with a gloomy look in his eyes, "Tell me, was today's incident intentional?"
Jiang Cheng was stunned, not understanding what Jiang Yan meant. Seeing her confusion, Jiang Yan thought that it was meaningless to pursue the matter now. Even with the imperial edict, he could not feel at ease. He had to...
He took a step forward, stood in front of Jiang Cheng and whispered, "Cheng'er,
Remember, I have already discussed with Marquis Anle and asked the emperor to issue a secret decree to make you the queen. Once the situation in Giant Clam stabilizes, you will be the queen of Giant Clam!
But before that, you have to take advantage of your position in the Giant Clam to get closer to the Emperor and take some measures when necessary. Once you are pregnant with a dragon child, it will be a done deal and he will have a hard time denying it!"
Jiang Cheng was stunned, and her pale face had a blush. She whispered, "Daddy, is this possible? Besides, the emperor is in the palace and won't come to this villa. How can I have a chance!"
"Let's take what happened tonight as an excuse. Don't worry, Dad will tell the Emperor tomorrow that this villa is not safe and will let you live in the palace. You will act accordingly when the time comes. Do you understand?"
He has done so much, he can't turn back no matter what, he can only move forward, so victory or defeat depends on this one move!
However, he had made preparations for both situations. His original intention was to create chaos and give the giant clam more time. Now it seems that he has to try his best to succeed. Maybe he is the master of Nanyue, and the giant clam will be in his pocket sooner or later.
Sometimes, people's ambitions are forced out. Jiang Yan is an example. In the beginning, he may have wanted very little, but in the end, because of human greed, his ambitions became more and more inflated. Also, because the things he wanted were not easy to get, he went further and further step by step!
Jiang Cheng nodded. She knew that she had no other way to go and could only follow the path arranged by Jiang Yan. No matter what, she must become a member of Ji Xi!
In the imperial study, Ji Xi strode to the dragon throne and sat down. "Fortunately, Anle Hou was wise and had people poison Jiang Cheng's food. Otherwise, I really don't know how tonight will turn out.
What an ending! "
Shen Yuheng sighed, "Your Majesty, Jiang Yan has made up his mind now. You have also heard his deployment and arrangements. This is indeed a good opportunity! This old minister knows that Your Majesty does not like Jiang Cheng, but since ancient times, which emperor did not have a group of women? If Your Majesty does not like her, just keep her in the palace. There is no need to make things so awkward with Jiang Yan!"
Jie Xi shook his head. When he left Nan Yue, his lifelong ambition was to make Lan Shuiyao his queen. Apart from Lan Shuiyao who had given him a new life, no other woman was worthy of the position of Jie Xi Queen. He would never allow Jiang Cheng to defile this position!
Besides, as a minister of the state, Jiang Yan should relieve the country's worries. How could he threaten him with the queen's affairs? He has already made him the King of Loyalty, and Jiang Cheng can also be a princess. Isn't this enough?
"Your Majesty, I have a temporary solution!" Shen Yuheng whispered about the secret decree, but he didn't expect Ji Xi to reject it outright. "Your Majesty never jokes. What's the difference between this and agreeing to it now?"
"It's a huge difference! Your Majesty, once the situation in the Giant Clam is stable, the King of Loyalty will no longer be able to threaten Your Majesty. If Your Majesty doesn't have a woman he likes by then, what about making Jiang Cheng the Queen?
If there is, it would be fine to let Jiang Cheng be a concubine. By then, Jiang Yan will have no bargaining chips in his hands, what else can he say? "Shen Yuheng said shrewdly.
"But this seems a little..." Jie Xi was a little hesitant. After all, Jiang Yan had made great contributions to Jie Clay. If he had not insisted on the position of queen, his future and wealth would have been limitless!
"Your Majesty, those who achieve great things do not care about trivial matters. Just take it one level at a time! Maybe Your Majesty and Miss Jiang Cheng will fall in love with each other by then!" Shen Yu
Heng offered advice again.
Shen Yuheng is an old fox, otherwise he would not have pretended to surrender to Jie Yu. Now he is assisting Jie Xi and has reached the position of Marquis of Anle!
After much thought, Ji Xi decided that perhaps this was the only way now, so at Shen Yuheng's urging, he wrote a secret decree and waited for Jiang Yan to come to the palace tomorrow to give it to him!
Nothing happened that night. The next day, Jiang Yan entered the palace. After receiving the secret decree, he was naturally very happy. He used Jiang Cheng's illness as an excuse and asked her to move into the palace. Jie Xi had no choice but to compromise again.
The next afternoon, Jiang Cheng moved into the palace with Ningxiang, and Jiang Yan saw that the big event had been decided, so he quietly returned to Nanyue with a secret decree to plot that big event!
Today is a good day. The warm winter sun shines on the earth, and the snow in Frost City begins to melt.
Shui Yao, dressed in red, and Lan Yi, dressed in blue, led their horses to the streets of Frost City. Suddenly, footsteps sounded behind them, and the snow was splashed by the horses' hooves, and the people on both sides of the street moved out of the way.
"Are you leaving now?" The man's lazy and clear voice sounded. Shui Yao didn't need to look back to know who made the evil voice!
Leng Yichen was dressed in enchanting white clothes, sitting upright on the white horse, dressed like a prince charming. With a snap of a brocade fan, he opened it in the air in an extremely chic manner, looking down at Shui Yao with a condescending smile, "You left without even notifying me, leaving me in such a hurry!"
Shui Yao chuckled and climbed onto the horse. She was not used to being looked down upon in such a condescending manner. She pinched a strand of hair on her chest and said lazily, "The deal has been concluded, so I'm leaving naturally. What's wrong? Is there anything else?"
Leng Yichen pretended to sigh, and his eyes were raised, making the women around him feel weak in the knees.
Leng Yichen looked around and blew a kiss to every woman, even Lan Yi. He said loudly, "There are too many people here, why don't we go outside the city and talk? I'll just treat it as a send-off!"
Shui Yao burst out laughing, "There are quite a lot of people here, and their appetites are quite diverse, but you are not picky, it's suitable for people of all ages!" After saying that, she walked straight out.
Leng Yichen immediately turned his horse around and followed him, "Are you jealous because I didn't fly you a kiss just now?"
Shuiyao was too lazy to ride on the horse, the white horse was walking slowly.
"Eat your head off. I thought you used this trick to protect yourself in Nanyue, but you didn't expect that you couldn't keep quiet in Frost City. Aren't you afraid that some men in this city won't recognize you and will come and fight you to death?"
Leng Yichen chuckled twice, opened his brocade fan, and fanned himself. He was not afraid of the cold. In an instant, his sleeves fluttered, his black hair flowed elegantly, and he looked indescribably romantic and charming. "Look at what this is?"
He hooked his toes backwards and hooked a sign on the horse's butt to his side. On it were written four big words in black and white: "I am the prince!"
Shui Yao was stunned and couldn't help laughing. Even Lan Yi, who usually had a cold face, couldn't help but pursed his lips behind her.
The three of them chatted and laughed all the way to the city gate. With their signature white clothes and that arrogant sign, naturally no one dared to stop them, and the three of them passed smoothly.
There was a small pavilion outside the city for pedestrians to rest. Leng Yichen stopped, asked his followers to put out wine and snacks in the pavilion, and he dismounted first and walked into the pavilion.
Shui Yao saw that it was still early, so she got off the horse and followed him. The two of them entered the pavilion one after the other, while Lan stood outside the pavilion, looking around vigilantly.
