But after An Bin saw An Shu, she immediately understood her ambition and her father's greed.
These...will kill her sooner or later!
An Bin did not respond to her sister's provocation, but instead sneered.
Speaking of which...she was originally sold into the palace when she was a child. It's not even close to the extent of family ties.
Since they are looking for death, it is better for her not to interfere too much, so as not to cause trouble.
An Bin suddenly coughed, and the emperor finally moved his gaze from An Shu to An Bin: "What's wrong, my beloved concubine? What's wrong?"
Concubine An said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, I am afraid that I have contracted the cold, which may affect the emperor's health... I am sorry that I cannot attend the family banquet today. Why don't you, your Majesty, drink wine with your father and sister and enjoy it together?"
Although An Bi is the color of Xiaojia Jade, she is now weak and soft, with red eyes, and she does not have any attractive beauty.
The emperor immediately felt distressed and said, "Okay, okay, you go and have a rest."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your consideration..." Concubine An stood up with the help of the maid beside her, and went to her palace to rest weakly. She did not bother to look at her father, Anli and An Shu, from the beginning to the end.
Let them do whatever they want! It's just that it's easy to enter this deep palace, but it's difficult to get out...
After Concubine An left, the emperor actually started chatting with An Shu, asking her how old she was and what she did in her daily life.
An Shudu smiled and said, "Your Majesty, brother-in-law, I am sixteen years old. On weekdays... I like to plant flowers and plants to cultivate my body and mind."
As he said that, he smiled shyly, but his eyes were very bright.
The emperor nodded: "It is indeed a good thing for a woman to cultivate her mind by planting flowers."
Then the emperor looked at the embarrassed Amway, smiled and cared about how Amway felt in his official position.
Amway answered them all, with a look of obedience and awe, which made the emperor feel very happy.
Then Amway changed the topic and said: "It's just...occasionally there are some conflicts with several adults of the Jiang family."
"Jiang family?" The emperor frowned, and thought about how a small official in Amway could have conflicts with the officials of the Jiang family. "Come tell me and let me hear it."
Anli was secretly happy, "Isn't this because I wanted to check the public sentiment, so I went to Xujia Village and found that a tofu shop was built in Xujia Village and the business was good. After careful inquiry, it turned out to be the Jiang family's business. Who knew that the Jiang family's son,
When I heard that I was leaving, I couldn't help but hire people to beat me up. I really don't know when I offended them... I am really confused."
The emperor looked at Amway's twinkling eyes and frowned, "The Jiang family's tofu shop? It's just an industry. Besides, what grudges does the Jiang family have against you?"
The emperor also has selfish motives. Now that the general is still in the capital, having the Jiang family and the general to check and balance is what the ruler wants to see most. Rather than an imbalance on one side causing the other to become more arrogant.
Seeing the emperor's behavior, which showed that he would not help him now, Amway's hope of success was somewhat disappointed.
But he didn't dare to refute, and just said: "Yes, yes, Your Majesty is right."
The emperor waved his hand: "Don't mention this matter again. However, I pity that it is not easy for you to raise two good daughters. How about I give you a seventh-grade official to do it for you?"
Amway is simply ecstatic!
He didn't expect that the emperor would promote him so easily!
It seems that the way to contribute to your daughter is indeed the most correct way! It is also the most convenient way to get promoted!
Anli immediately kowtowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty! I will do my best for Your Majesty! I will do whatever it takes!"
This meal was enjoyed by both host and guest.
Amway also tried his best to flatter him and made Long Xin happy. When he finally left, only Amway left.
As for An Shu... Needless to say, she stayed in the palace for one night and accompanied the emperor to the Xuanzheng Hall.
A romantic night.
…
On the second day, Fubao, Jiang He and the others went to school as usual.
Liu Ruyun also recovered quickly and came to study as usual.
It's just that Qin Lan is not here today, and only Chang Le is here. Even the third prince was punished with solitary confinement, so this matter is over.
Without them, the atmosphere in the classroom is less chaotic and relatively stable.
Liu Ruyun specifically turned her head and whispered to Fu Bao: "Don't tell me, your fifth uncle's ointment is really good. There is nothing wrong with my face anymore. The swelling subsided after one night of thick application, and it didn't leave any marks."
Fu Bao said proudly: "Of course, it is produced by my fifth uncle after all! It must be easy to use!"
"I can't use so much, so I'll give it back to you..."
Fu Bao waved his hand: "No, you can just take it."
Liu Ruyun hesitated again and again, and finally said with a blushing face: "What... Fu Bao, I don't think you are that annoying. Should we... be friends?"
Fubao also understands the meaning of not having many friends, and Liu Ruyun has indeed helped her a lot.
Fu Bao nodded: "Okay! Let's have lunch together! Let's go to the prince's place to eat and drink!"
Liu Ruyun laughed, and Liu Guanghe also raised his hand: "Take me one!"
Fubao also happily said: "Okay!"
Chang Le, who saw them enjoying themselves, had a sinister look in his eyes and looked away without saying a word.
Friendship?
Ha...stupid.
At noon, Fu Bao took Tang Ning and the Liu family brothers and sisters to the prince's place to eat and drink.
Wei Cheng was not surprised and said with a smile: "You are here."
Fu Bao saw him smiling, but always felt that he had something on his mind, so he asked curiously: "Prince's cousin, what's wrong with you? Are you worried?"
The prince pursed his lips: "... Today's news is that there is a flood in the south... The courtiers are quarreling over this matter. Your Majesty has a headache and asks someone to check..."
Flood.
When Fu Bao hears these things now, he will unconsciously sound the alarm.
I am afraid that the predicted troubled times will come in the next second.
She also frowned and said, "Then, has Your Majesty decided who to send to investigate?"
The prince shook his head, "Not yet...but, my highness has decided to go to the south to check it out personally."
Fu Bao was shocked.
"Cousin Prince, are you going in person? Aren't you afraid of danger?"
The prince shook his head, "I am the prince after all. Since I am the prince, I naturally have to take responsibility."
His frown eased and he looked at Fu Bao gently: "I have asked my father for a decree. If my father agrees, I will leave soon. By then, I will not be able to have lunch with you. You
If you want to eat, just ask Changsheng to prepare it, you don’t have to wait for me.”
Fu Bao moved his lips, saw his deep eyes, and finally said: "Okay, then you have to take care of yourself! Remember to bring enough guards and medicine."
The prince nodded and smiled at her awkward concern: "I know."
Fu Bao's meal was not very tasty.
When I got home in the evening, there was even more news that Fu Bao couldn't cheer up.
It turned out that it was the prince who requested the order to go to the south for inspection, and the emperor naturally knew the possible dangers behind the inspection of the flood.
Let’s not talk about riots or epidemics, but let’s talk about the possibility of corrupt officials and corrupt officials. If the prince goes alone, he will inevitably be in danger.
So after careful consideration, the emperor decided to let Jiang Qi accompany the prince to the south.
And it was Jiang Qixiumu who came back and told the Jiang family this news.
Mrs. Jiang no longer had any thoughts about tending to the flowers and plants, and her face suddenly turned cold: "What do you mean, Your Majesty?"
Jiang Qi shook his head: "Your Majesty, you must have made up your mind and cannot shirk it. Besides, the floods in the south still have more refugees, and the court only discovered it. It seems that the fire can no longer be contained. Your Majesty was very angry and ordered a thorough investigation. Here we go,
It must be very dangerous.”
The Jiang family members were silent, and as strong as Wen Niang, her eyes were red silently, "If something happens to you..."
Jiang Qi held her hand and said softly: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, Mother Wen, nothing may happen. Besides... if the situation is really urgent, don't we still have room for Fu Bao? We can come back at any time."
The Jiang family also breathed a sigh of relief. Old Mrs. Jiang said: "Even if there is space, the prince is traveling with you, and there are many people and eyes, so it is not easy to escape - old man, do you have any news?"
Jiang Li also had a rare serious look on his face and said: "The news I have here is that Huining, Anrong, Qingyuan and other places in the south are all suffering from floods - it is not just flooding, but a dam burst, and ten households are affected.
Five families didn't have time to escape, and they all drowned——"
The Jiang family's hearts froze.
Out of ten families, five drowned!?
And the south is the densely populated area of Apocalypse Kingdom... This, how many casualties must be there?!
And the imperial court only got the news now!
No wonder the emperor was furious! No wonder he wanted to film Jiang Qi and the prince at the same time for inspection!
It turns out that there are officials below who have created such a big trap!
