Chapter 251: Claiming to be Sick and Not Going Out
Chapter 251: Claiming to be Sick and Not Going Out
After Hua Guiqing, her mother and her two sons learned what happened that day, they could not calm down for a long time.
"You mean the Princess of Yan participated in a martial arts competition, and those two hundred people were killed by her~really by her?"
Hua Guiqing couldn't imagine that such a thin person could have done such an earth-shattering thing.
She also practiced martial arts all year round when she was a teenager, but she has put it aside for many years.
Now I am just a show-off and have no chance of winning against others.
The people who were previously stationed in the main courtyard did not pass on this news.
Even Chun'er, who was able to serve closely, did not notice anything unusual.
When did the change happen? She was a little unsure, it was when Chun Er disappeared.
When she looked into Nalan Huixin's eyes this morning, there had been a change in that person's eyes.
Nalan Huixin doesn't take anything to heart now, including the prince.
There is no love in the woman's eyes, and no longer any desire for exclusivity.
Even Nalan Huixin's dressing up this morning was just to irritate her.
None of this has anything to do with King Yan.
Hua Guiqing's performance was exactly what Princess Yan wanted.
She was indeed jealous.
Everything Princess Yan had originally belonged to her.
It was Nalan Huixin who pestered Prince Yan and asked the Emperor to grant them a marriage.
Jiang Ye had no choice but to marry her.
Hua Guiqing recalled the past and hated Princess Yan even more.
Since she couldn't become a princess, she had to settle for becoming a concubine.
The Prince of Yan had already agreed that after she gave birth to two sons, he would find an opportunity to marry her as a concubine.
If the Hua family hadn't gotten into trouble back then, how could they, mother and son, have ended up in this situation!
"Zhan'er, take this man to the study to find your father, and avoid other people. Show weakness in front of your father and ask him for more help."
Jiang Zhan understood Hua Guiqing's words immediately.
Jiang Zhan also learned some tricks of house fighting today, and he also guessed some of his mother's intentions.
Prince Yan didn't like things in his hands to get out of control, and the fact that mother and son were training people privately was a taboo to him.
This time, they took the initiative to surrender and took the blame for King Yan. Combined with the news this man brought back, King Yan will definitely give them mother and son some compensation from other places.
It would be great if Zhan'er could go to the border military camp.
Thinking of this, Hua Guiqing had no time to care about the situation of the mother and son at this time.
If he could go there, make some military achievements, win over some people, and if the King of Yan had the possibility to make further progress, Jiang Zhan would have a foothold there...
Hua Guiqing didn't dare to think further.
The prerequisite for all this to be realized is to overthrow the Princess of Yan and her son.
......
Jiang Zhan took the man and avoided the servants of Prince Yan's Mansion and quietly came to Prince Yan's study.
"Zhan'er, why are you here? Have you and your son been settled? Is there anything else you need? Remember to ask the housekeeper for anything you need."
The housekeeper has been handling the affairs of Prince Yan's Mansion these days, and it will take a few more days for Princess Yan to take over.
"Replying to Father, we have everything we need. My mother...my aunt said that our original things can still be used, and there is no need to cause trouble to the mansion."
Jiang Zhan changed his words, feeling a little uncomfortable for a moment.
After hearing what he said, King Yan couldn't help but sigh, "Gui'er is still sensible."
"Father, this is the person who came back from the post station. Auntie sent all 20 people there, and only this person came back. He made some discoveries there."
With just a few words, Jiang Zhan exposed Hua Guiqing's weakness in front of King Yan.
"There are more than 200 people, but only he came back. If I tell others about it, no one will believe me." King Yan sighed, "Forget it, let's talk about what happened over there."
"Only three people from the Wei family came this time, and they didn't bring many people with them. Just one girl wiped out our entire army..."
The person kneeling on the ground slowly recounted what had happened that day, and occasionally the King of Yan would interrupt and ask a few questions.
After knowing what happened that day, King Yan had him taken away.
"What is the box this girl is carrying? What's in it?"
There were only the father and son in the study. Prince Yan was a little restless and walked back and forth in the room.
"It seems to have the same effect as the drugs, but it's easier to operate than those. You can do it as long as you have better skills."
Jiang Zhan is the first son of King Yan and has been favored by him since childhood.
This kind of pampering is different from Jiang Lan's.
Jiang Zhan is a man of both civil and military talents, and is no fool.
King Yan clapped his hands, "An Yi."
A figure appeared in the study and bowed.
"An Yi, send someone to the post station at the border and the town to investigate. Don't make a big fuss."
The Prince of Yan did not believe what the Princess of Yan, the Sea Goddess, said. But if there was no help from the gods, how could they appear in that town?
This is something he still can't figure out.
It is impossible for Princess Yan and her companions, who are just ordinary people, to travel a thousand miles in an instant.
"Father, the princess is practicing martial arts, you have to be careful."
Jiang Zhan looked embarrassed and finally said this.
"I know that the only person I trust is your aunt." King Yan's words did not make Jiang Zhan feel at ease.
"You and your son have been wronged. I will assign some people to you in a few days. As for other matters, you should be tolerant. Your father was also a bastard, and he got through it that way."
King Yan patted Jiang Zhan on the shoulder and said, "Go back and help your aunt pack up. You will rush to the border garrison in a few days."
Jiang Zhan heard this and said, "Father, my sister and brother have gone there. It seems inappropriate for me to go there. I'd better be patient. It won't be too late for me to go there after my brothers and sisters accept us."
He hung his head and sounded depressed.
"What's wrong with that? Just go if I ask you to! You are the eldest brother, so they should respect you. Except for the prince, no one can surpass you."
King Yan's words did not make Jiang Zhan feel at ease.
"As for the Crown Prince, we naturally respect him. His younger brother and sister are legitimate children, so we brothers should also respect them. There is a distinction between the high and the low, and Zhan dare not cross the line even a step."
Jiang Zhan saluted and walked out.
The Princess of Yan already knew that this illegitimate son had brought people to the Prince of Yan's study.
"Lan'er, the fish that escaped the net has appeared, and what happened over there will naturally be revealed. You'd better bite me to death, even if the Sea Goddess helps--"
"I see. We are thousands of miles away and there is no god to help us fly there!"
Jiang Lan was a little impatient, "Mother, I'll go back first, you talk to Changbo."
After everyone left, Princess Yan let out a sigh of relief.
"Changbo, you have to stay here for a few more days. Wait until I have all the people here before you go back."
When Princess Yan spoke, Changbo naturally obeyed.
"The prince will definitely send someone to investigate in the next few days. Send someone to spread the news about the Sea Goddess. Then spread the news that I want to build a temple and make a golden statue for the Sea Goddess."
The Princess of Yan was not worried at all that the Prince of Yan would find out her flaws, because she had something that the Prince of Yan coveted.
"Mammy, just say that I'm sick and can't go out these few days, and the housekeeper will continue to manage the affairs of the palace. When the staff arrives, please count my dowry."
"When it's time to make a decision, make it now, and then work it out slowly."
After Princess Yan finished speaking, there was no sadness or joy in her eyes.
