Chapter 300 Malan Flower
As soon as Prince Jing went out, he saw Liu Zhenzhen walking with An Jiu.
Liu Zhenzhen smiled at him, neither sad nor happy.
"What did you talk to Xiaojiu about?" Prince Jing asked casually.
Liu Zhenzhen smiled and said, "We talked about the fish in the Imperial Garden."
After a pause, she said to Prince Jing, "Your Highness, I like a flower, but it has been picked. Maybe it will wither in the afternoon. I am so sad."
Prince Jing paused and said calmly, "Then change one you like. There are so many flowers in the garden."
Liu Zhenzhen looked forward, her eyes red as she smiled: "But none of them belong to me, only this one belongs to me. In my life, nothing really belongs to me. Even if this flower is about to wither, I still like it."
Prince Jing said nothing.
Liu Zhenzhen and Prince Jing walked side by side for a while, and she asked Prince Jing: "Prince, will you be buried in the imperial mausoleum after you die?"
Prince Jing shook his head: "I don't really want to. Do you have any good recommendations?"
Liu Zhenzhen thought about it seriously and said, "Let's go take a look this afternoon to see if there is any Feng Shui treasure land. When you die, how about I plant flowers in front of your grave?"
Prince Jing smiled and said, "Okay, I like flowers the most."
Liu Zhenzhen also laughed: "What kind of flowers do you like?"
Without waiting for Prince Jing to answer, she said, "How about the amaranth? It's blue-purple, not showy but very strong. I heard it can grow on cliffs. I like it the most."
Prince Jing has never seen it.
But he nodded anyway.
That’s fine!
He is not picky.
The emperor stood on the high platform, watching Prince Jing and Liu Zhenzhen walking away. He asked An Jiu, "What did you talk about with Princess Jing?"
An Jiu said: "Nothing much, just chatting about the fish in the lotus pond."
After a pause, An Jiu said, "Your Majesty, Koi is good."
The emperor was amused. He just said it casually. Could he really change it to a carp? He was laughed at by his ministers.
He took Anjiu's hand and said, "Walk with me."
An Jiu smiled and said, "Okay."
The palace road was very long. When An Jiu first walked along it, she felt it was eerie. But now, she felt it was too short. The emperor pulled her and they reached the end in no time.
The fat fish in the lotus pond swam around until a handful of fish food was dropped, then they rushed over. Two people, a man and a woman, were reflected on the water surface.
The woman said, "Stop feeding them. The fish are really going to die of starvation."
The man took the opportunity to throw down a handful of fish food.
"Let me see if these stupid fish will really die of starvation."
…
Madam Jiang entered the palace.
The daughter became a concubine, and they were both mother and daughter and monarch and subject.
The palace was very large and the walls were very high. After many twists and turns, Mrs. Jiang finally arrived at Concubine De's palace.
The first thing Mrs. Jiang did when she saw her daughter was to bow.
Concubine De hurriedly helped her up.
"mother……"
Mrs. Jiang felt very sad when she was called mother.
She then looked up at her daughter.
Under the gorgeous clothes was Concubine De's thin body. Even the exquisite hair crown and heavy makeup could not hide her pale and haggard face.
Mrs. Jiang was heartbroken.
"My son, what's the matter with you?"
Defei asked all the palace maids to leave. When only mother and daughter were left in the hall, Defei suddenly knelt on the ground.
"Mother, save me."
Mrs. Jiang was shocked.
"What... happened to you?" She had a bad feeling.
Concubine De stood up, covering her abdomen.
"I'm pregnant..."
Mrs. Jiang was silent.
Being pregnant is a good thing...
But my daughter is like this...
Obviously, this child is not the emperor's.
Mrs. Jiang only felt that her vision was dark and her head was dizzy. She tried hard to suppress the fear in her heart.
"Whose is it?"
De Fei shook her head: "I can't say."
Madam Jiang said angrily, "You are so confused..."
Although she was angry, Defei had made such a mistake. Not only was she guilty of a capital crime, but the Jiang family might also be implicated.
The emperor is not the village idiot who would accept this matter with a pinch of his nose and swallow his anger.
"What should I do?"
Mrs. Jiang stood up and walked a few steps, but still felt that she should abort the child while it was still small.
"...I'll prepare some medicine and send it in. The emperor won't come to your place, so it won't be noticed by anyone..."
However, Concubine De shook her head and said, "Mother, this child cannot be beaten."
Madam Jiang angrily asked, "If you don't abort the baby, do you still want to give birth to the baby?"
Concubine De touched her belly, her face gloomy, and there was a kind of madness in her eyes that even Madam Jiang found horrifying.
She said: "Mother, the emperor has no children. If he dies, then this child will be the only heir to Daxia."
Mrs. Jiang's words got stuck in her throat.
Everyone in the Jiang family knows how ambitious the Jiang family is.
They dreamed of having Concubine De get pregnant, so that she could become the crown prince in the future, and their Jiang family would be able to move forward...
People are never satisfied.
Never satisfied.
Madam Jiang returned home dizzy and happened to meet Mr. Jiang Er. Seeing that his mother looked bad, Mr. Jiang Er couldn't help asking, "Mother, didn't you go to the palace? Why do you look so bad? Did something happen to your sister?"
Mrs. Jiang glanced at him and shook her head, then asked casually, "It's okay, where did you go and why did you come back so late?"
"I went to Huajie to eat kebabs."
Mrs. Jiang felt speechless and helpless.
What an idiot, he can come up with such a lame excuse.
In the past, she would have said it.
But now...
She had so much on her mind that she was too lazy to talk about it.
Mrs. Jiang said something indifferent and left.
She wanted to discuss such a big matter with her husband.
Young Master Jiang scratched his head.
"Did something really happen to my sister in the palace?" He felt that Madam Jiang's attitude was not right.
So he turned around and went out, ready to ask Young Master Guo about it.
Young Master Guo was the youngest son of General Zhenyuan. Although Concubine De and Concubine Shu had a bad relationship, Jiang Er and Young Master Guo had a good relationship. Of course, this was limited to Flower Street. They both liked the mutton skewers there, so they often got together to eat. Outside Flower Street, they didn't keep in touch.
While Mrs. Jiang was anxiously waiting, Prime Minister Jiang came back.
His face was extremely gloomy, and when he saw Mrs. Jiang, he frowned unhappily.
"What's up? "
Madam Jiang exhaled, looked at Prime Minister Jiang and said, "I just came back from the palace..."
She told Concubine De that she was pregnant.
Prime Minister Jiang looked at Madam Jiang and said, "So, this child is not the emperor's?"
Mrs. Jiang nodded: "That child is confused."
Although Concubine De refused to say who the child's father was, since the men who could appear in the palace were either imperial physicians or guards, Madam Jiang believed that the child's biological father must be a man of lowly status.
Mrs. Jiang's intention was to abort the baby without anyone noticing.
But Prime Minister Jiang obviously had other ideas.
He walked around the ground twice.
He shook his head: "This child is the emperor's."
Madam Jiang looked at him with worry in her eyes: "Master, this is not a joke. Once... once it is discovered... the Jiang family... the Jiang family will..."
Prime Minister Jiang shook his head: "Do you think that if you do nothing, the Jiang family will be fine?"
Mrs. Jiang didn't understand.
Prime Minister Jiang breathed a sigh of relief.
Today's morning court was not peaceful.
"News came from the south. The Nanling City occupied by Chu was recaptured. Not only that, King Jing led his men to attack head-on, while Guo Rui led his troops to launch a surprise attack and severely damaged the Chu army."
Mrs. Jiang wondered, “Isn’t this a good thing?”
Daxia defeated Chu and Western Rong, and everyone could live in peace for a few days.
But Prime Minister Jiang shook his head.
