Naturally, her desire to take in Jiang Jiu was not motivated by sympathy.
Jiang Miao knew that the eldest princess and Lu Yuanshan were in trouble. They were being watched by people from all walks of life in the capital. If Daddy Zha knew that Jiang Jiu was being thrown aside casually, he would naturally not let it go.
The eldest princess can't adopt, but she can.
The Shen family is not under the eyes of everyone now, and Jiang Miao also wants to detoxify Jiang Jiu. When the poison on his body is detoxified, he can naturally be sent back to the border.
And his poison was given by Qiao Songyun. Give Xiao Qiao some time, maybe he can develop an antidote.
Lu Yuanshan and the eldest princess both felt guilty and grateful. It was originally their adults' business, but Mia Ya took the responsibility. This made the two of them feel guilty, and finally led to their anger towards Jiang Zhe rising to another level.
Jiang Zhe still doesn't know that he has already reached a dead end with the eldest princess, and there is no room for change.
It was half a month later that he received another letter from Beijing.
Seeing that while he was away, the relationship between the eldest princess and Lu Yuanshan was getting closer and closer. Even people in the capital had already agreed that they were a couple. Even Mrs. Lu agreed to the marriage. He, the nominal consort, was directly
As a dead person.
"hehe!"
Jiang Zhe sneered. He crumpled the letter into a ball and threw it into the brazier. Soon, flames burst out and burned the paper into ashes.
The lower bodyguard shuddered, his general was furious, but thinking about the rumors in the capital, he understood the general's anger.
The guard buried his head lower, trying his best to downplay his presence so as not to let the general vent his anger on him.
Jiang Zhe is not at odds with a servant. What he hates most now is Lu Yuanshan, and he is also angry at the eldest princess.
No matter how ridiculous he was in the past few years, he never thought about reconciliation. Although he doted on Aunt Zhao, he never treated her as his wife in his heart. Only Linlang could enjoy the honor of his head wife, but she did not cherish it.
Jiang Zhe didn't feel that he had double standards at all. He could have three wives and four concubines, but the eldest princess had to keep his virginity for him. Even if the relationship between the two was not good, they could not have any thoughts of reconciliation.
In the past, he had the military talisman in his hand, and the emperor could not live without him, but it is different now. The military talisman has been taken back. He has a name but no real power. This man will be replaced in minutes.
Now that Dayan has no one available, he still has a chance.
Jiang Zhe understood that since the eldest princess was in and out of the same house with Lu Yuanshan in such a high-profile manner, she had already made plans to reconcile. Even if he didn't want to, he couldn't undo it.
But it would be different if he had real power. Even if it was to consolidate the relationship, the marriage between the eldest princess and him would not be broken easily.
Jiang Zhe sat in the tent with a sullen face all night. When the sky turned white, he already had an idea in his mind.
If he wants to keep the eldest princess, he can only regain power again.
After this winter's rest, the border has eased, and Jiang Miao has sent enough food and grass, and the logistics support is complete, while Xixia is just the opposite.
The snowstorm two years ago not only caused numerous casualties in Dayan, but was also a blow to Xixia.
Moreover, Xixia is not like Dayan, with a vast territory and abundant resources. With Jiang Miao and Shen Yanqing here, the people have planted high-yield crops, and every family can have enough to eat and wear warm clothes.
However, Xixia is located among lofty mountains, and land is inherently scarce. The Xixia people are good at making poison but not good at farming. Last year's harvest was particularly bad. The period from spring to early summer is when the Xixia people are at their weakest.
Due to lack of food, civil strife broke out in Xixia. The prince's faction was at war with Tuoba Mingge. Jiang Zhe felt that this was an opportunity. He might be able to fish in troubled waters and catch them all.
When the military merits are achieved, his prestige in the court will be upgraded to another level.
However, what he thought of, Tuoba Mingge could also think of.
Years ago, Tuoba Mingge was eyeing Dayan Border Pass, but now the situation was reversed, and he was the one on guard.
Not to mention, the prince's faction has been making frequent moves recently, and his mother and concubine are still locked up in the cold palace. Even he can't see anyone. It's easy for the queen to use some small tricks, and it's too late for him to save people.
Tuoba Mingge was angry in his heart. He was still too weak. The prince had the support of his maternal family, so he was already much better than him. Otherwise, what qualifications would a loser have to go against him.
The King of Xixia sneered as he watched his two sons fighting for the throne.
"Who wins depends on their respective abilities."
He naturally hoped that the fifth son would sit on the throne. After all, the Shangguan family behind the prince was very ambitious. Shangguan Yao, the old immortal, wanted to support a puppet to come to power. The King of Xixia lowered his eyes. If he really succeeded, within ten years,
The Xixia royal family had to change their names.
He would never let such a thing happen.
The prince's faction is Tuoba Mingge's whetstone. If he wants to sit on the throne, he has to show some real skills.
Today's Lao Wu is still too young.
The King of Xixia thought for a moment, then reached out to find his chamberlain.
"Serve me to change my clothes and go to Xiufang Palace."
"yes."
The chamberlain came forward respectfully. The third princess had been imprisoned for several months, and the king was finally willing to go over and take a look.
Others don't know, but the attendants who serve the King of Xixia can guess that the King's favorite woman is definitely the third princess.
Even if it was found that there was witchcraft in her palace, the king would not have the heart to punish her. If the queen had not been aggressive, the king would not have sent the three princesses to the cold palace.
But even if she is thrown into the cold palace, it is more to protect her.
After all, people in the court are in panic, and the identity of the third princess has always been a taboo. Other people's witchcraft may be fine, but her poison skills are very evil, and there is no guarantee that something will happen to the king.
So under the leadership of the queen, a group of ministers jointly petitioned to execute the third princess, but in the end the king spared her.
In Xiufang Palace, the third princess was lying on a chair with her eyes closed and basking in the sun.
Although she is already a woman in her thirties, time has only shown mercy to her and has not been willing to leave any traces on her face.
The woman's skin is like cream, so delicate that no flaw can be seen. Her eyes are cold red phoenix eyes, because her curled eyelashes can be seen when she closes them. Her lips are a bit thin, but their shape is perfect, revealing something otherworldly.
Fairy spirit.
She was lying there, with the afternoon sun shining on her, like a fairy who could fly away at any moment.
The King of Xixia walked very lightly. When he came in and saw this scene, his heart tightened and his mouth was filled with panic.
