"No!" Chu Xuangzhi frowned and refused. This was not his plan at all. He just wanted to use the Queen Mother to tie up Prince Qing.
Let King Qing voluntarily give up the throne.
Now that Prince Qing and he are both heirs, they are in harmony on the surface, but have been preparing for it privately.
None of his plans were to harm Jiang Yunxu.
She is not even allowed to cut blood to make medicine in order to gain connections for herself.
Jiang Yunxu was shocked by Chu Xuanzhi's attitude.
She cuts blood to make medicine, it's not life-threatening, and the blood can be returned. The original owner worked as a medicine guide for Chu Youqi for five years.
Wouldn't it be a pity to keep this blood for no use?
"Your Majesty, without further ado, this is the simplest and most convenient way. The imperial court cannot lose too many ministers at once. It will cause civil strife, internal and external troubles, and will only cause more serious consequences and displace countless people."
Chu Xuanzhi's face tightened, and he unconsciously tightened his hold on Jiang Yunxu's hand, resisting the urge to pull Jiang Yunxu into his arms.
He does have feelings for Jiang Yunxu.
But he didn't want this feeling to be mixed with unclean impurities. He didn't want to hug her, and he didn't hug her out of gratitude.
"Your Majesty, please consider it as a favor to me. If you need it in the future, please ask Your Majesty for help."
Jiang Yunxu was afraid that he would not agree, so he simply made a condition.
Chu Xuanzhi didn't say anything the whole way. He got off the carriage and entered the house. His face was still gloomy. Jiang Yunxu was beside him to persuade him.
People who didn't know anything along the way thought that Chu Xuazhi was angry.
"Your Majesty, we are all tied to the same boat now, why bother risking a guaranteed win for just a few drops of blood?" Jiang Yunxu stopped and really couldn't think through this matter.
After waiting for a long time, Chu Xuazhi just replied with a faint "hmm".
Then he turned around and left.
Jiang Yunxu breathed a sigh of relief. With Chu Xuanzhi's compromise, she immediately looked for opportunities to research the antidote in the space.
In the evening, she looked at the piles of supplements and medicinal materials on the table and was shocked.
"This is?"
"The prince sent someone to deliver this. There was a pile of it in the small warehouse. Several cooks were also called in. They said they would provide the princess with three meals a day to replenish her health."
Jiang Yunxu smiled when he saw this, and he was quite conscientious.
At the same time, news had spread in the palace that the Queen Mother was critically ill. Jiang Yunxu was summoned to the palace to check her pulse. Chu Xuanzhi refused on the grounds that the princess was unwell.
So King Qing came in person.
"The queen mother is critically ill and the doctors are helpless, so they can only rely on Princess Xuan to save her." King Qing looked worried.
Chu Xuanzhi said in a deep voice: "The princess is also sick."
"There are no outsiders here. You and I know very well that Princess Xuan will be immune to all poisons and nothing will happen. Prince Xuan, please save your mother. Lingzhou is already riddled with holes. Do we want the world to be in chaos?"
King Qing said in a deep voice: "King Xuan, you should think about the overall situation. You are the God of War in Lingzhou and care about the people. Do you have to become cold-blooded and ruthless and do whatever it takes to fight for the throne?"
Chu Xuanzhi did not speak.
"What King Qing said is wrong." Jiang Yunxu, dressed in plain clothes, came over holding a red hand: "Why bother King Xuan when King Qing wants to invite people? Why don't you come to me directly? Some people are worried
If you don't make calculations, your skills are inferior to others. If you ask for help from others, you must have a begging attitude."
The Queen Mother plotted against the Lingzhou Emperor, and the Lingzhou Emperor also plotted against the Queen Mother. It was the Queen Mother who was not careful enough, and now she came to the other party to beg her. Whether to save her or not was all in the other party's hands.
Moral kidnapping has no effect on Jiang Yunxu.
In front of the royal family, she suffered losses several times. She promised to do well on the surface, but then turned her back and refused to recognize others.
King Qing was stunned.
He saw Jiang Yunxu's expression was as usual, and it turned out that nothing was wrong.
Now that the words have been spoken, what else does Prince Qing not understand? After all, he just wants the throne!
Prince Qing had a tense face and did not speak for a long time.
