Zang Xi finally felt a faint emotion that was different from his mood.
So what has he done before?
If those people really spread the poisonous powder during the ceremony, then these innocent people participating in the ceremony would probably be affected.
Then, a businessman like this will no longer be able to bring his wife and children home. How will his mother and daughter survive?
There may be countless people like him, and there are countless children like Xiao Rui...
So he really did something wrong?
However, Zang Xi looked at the numerous cabin doors on this big ship with piercing eyes, his eyes red.
Even if he made a mistake, why did the emperor let these people be buried with him?
Just because you want him to experience this feeling so deeply before he dies?
The more Zang Xi thought about it, the more he felt suffocated.
He finally realized how profound the word disregard for human life was.
Although he made mistakes and was finally stopped, these people still had to be buried in the sea with him and died in vain...
"ah--"
Zang Xi suddenly looked up to the sky and roared. In a mixture of grief and anger, he actually crushed the wooden railings on the side of the ship.
Ah Qing heard the sound and came over, his face turned pale with fright.
"Master, what are you..."
Zang Xi gritted his teeth and did not answer, and waved his hand dejectedly.
The hands were pricked with wooden thorns and were bleeding profusely.
"Master, don't move. I'll take care of the thorn for you first!"
Ah Qing quickly tore his underwear and came over to remove the thorns and bandage his wounds, while Zang Xi looked at the sea level in the distance without saying a word.
In just one hour, the ship had sailed so far that no land could be seen at all.
Even if he rushed below the deck and killed the man driving the boat, he would not be able to find the direction to return.
What's more, the lives of his two children are still in the emperor's hands...
"That's all, it's me who lost!"
Zang Xi looked up at the sky with a gloomy face and never spoke again.
until……
Two days later, the ship successfully arrived at the other half of Yanchu's land.
Zang Xi watched in disbelief as the bow of the boat gradually changed from a line to a clear line of land on the other side, and his heart surged.
It was the excitement of waking up from a cycle of escaping from death and escaping from death again.
After seeing the other side, everyone on the boat was excited.
Both the officials, their descendants and the common people rushed to the deck and started cheering.
Only the merchants who had been traveling between the two sides for many years pursed their lips and smiled.
They were used to this scene and were no longer surprised. Although the risk at sea was extremely high, customs had already learned the habits of wind and waves for hundreds of years. As long as they did not set sail in April and September every year, they would basically not encounter any terrible waves.
The merchants began to make preparations, packed their things, and took the horses on the lowest level out from under the boat.
Zang Xi was watching this scene in shock. At this moment, several people poured out of the cabin.
Those were actually the faces of several subordinates he was familiar with.
"Prince Feng!"
Several people ran over happily, as excited as if they had given the boss a surprise.
"Your Majesty, by the order of Your Majesty, Your Majesty, we have brought your belongings here as well."
As he spoke, he pointed to the horses following behind him.
Each horse carries two heavy boxes on its back.
Zang Xi's eyes felt a little hot.
One of them, A Lu, has been working with Ah Qing and has a good relationship.
At this moment, he slapped A Qing's shoulder heavily: "Hey, hey, you kid must not have thought that you are not the only one who accompanied the prince here, right? Hehe, hey, don't try to take all the credit!"
"In the future, we will be here with the prince!"
…
Ten days later, Shangshu Mansion.
Tang Jingxian sat blankly on the edge of the bed, looking at the cloth in her hand.
There are a few lines written on it.
"Prince Feng has arrived at the south bank safely!"
This is what A Qing sent her, probably the last message.
The two sides of the strait are far away, and it is not a distance that birds can easily fly across. Usually, only a large bird called an gull specially bred by the government can cross the sea, and it has to rest on a passing ship along the way.
Therefore, this information arrived at Yanchu on the return ship and then passed to her.
After entering November, winter begins, and official ships will only sail twice a month.
And she originally thought the same as Zang Xi, thinking that the emperor wanted him to die in the sea in this way.
But don't want to...
That was another Yanchu who was said to be so rich that he never closed his door at night!
I knew it would be like this... No, it doesn't have to be like this.
Even if the fourth prince is not demoted to a commoner, he will never have the chance to climb to a higher position.
Now, except for the youngest prince who died of illness, the other six princes all have the opportunity to become powerful regents.
Well, excluding the youngest seventh prince who has not yet reached the age of ten, there are still five remaining princes, and two of them do not have concubines.
Tang Jingxian took a deep breath, put the cloth strip in her hand on the candle and burned it clean.
"It's okay, I still have a chance!"
She raised her chin, looked seriously at the pretty face in the bronze mirror, and curled her lips.
It doesn't matter if she makes a wrong bet once, she still has a chance to make a comeback.
As long as you don’t choose the wrong person this time!
Fengwu Palace.
Qin Jiaoxi is helping Ye Wu pack her things.
"How are you going to disappear this time?"
Ye Wu rolled up her skirt without raising her head: "Go to the Valley of Divine Doctors to see a doctor!"
"The Emperor has made arrangements a long time ago, saying that I am weak and need to seek medical treatment from a miracle doctor!"
In this way, the Queen has returned to the Valley of Miracle Doctors perfectly, and she will be able to figure it out when she comes back in the future.
As for the little prince, it is not yet time for him to be exposed, so it is safer for him to stay well in the Valley of Divine Doctors.
In the past ten days, after sending the four princes away, Meng Yinqin quickly set up a plan to assess the candidates for the regent. The six princes, including the youngest, all actively participated in it.
Because under the regent, the second-ranked prince will be the prince who will be sent to the other side of Yanchu in three years to serve as regent.
After all, that’s two opportunities!
One of the three princes holds great power and his status is second only to the emperor. How can this not make people excited?
The moon marks were determined by our ancestors. Without that destiny, we cannot strive for it.
But the regent and the regent of the other country can be fought for by themselves.
For a time, the entire royal family seemed to have been given a shot. People's livelihood issues could be discussed in the court hall until noon. Some princes even took ministers out for a meal before returning to the palace and continued their work in the afternoon.
Zang Haichuan was stunned.
In the thirty years since he has been in office, this is the first time that he has seen the princes, princes and even ministers working so hard and forgetting to eat and sleep in order to develop the country's livelihood.
And, as the Supreme Emperor, he was almost ignored by others.
"Your Majesty, my brother believes that this matter is feasible. The grains grown in Dazhao are not suitable for our Yanchu land, but if the soil quality can be changed as Master Shang said, why not give it a try?"
"Brother Chen also thinks that we can try it. After all, the cost investment only requires manpower..."
