If we follow what the mother and concubine said, then the Zhenguo Hou Mansion is just doing work for Princess Chang Ning's Mansion and Xiong University Scholar's Mansion.
However, Princess Chang Ning's mother-in-law was born in the residence of Prime Minister Shu Zuo, and her consort was also the second son of Prime Minister Shu Zuo.
Calculating this, Prime Minister Shu Zuo's Mansion is not exempt.
The more Chu Ximo thought about it, the more chilled she became. She couldn't help but said angrily: "Since the mother-in-law knows who is behind it, why did she let the emperor marry her in the first place? Her mother is the cousin of Shu Zuo's legitimate wife."
Concubine Jiang naturally knew who Chu Ximo was talking about, it was none other than Crown Princess Han Ziyi.
"All I'm thinking about is your father's affairs. How can I worry so much? Besides, Ziyi looked innocent at first, and it was Ah Xuan himself who made a big fuss and begged for it. I've seen it, and I think it's
It's okay, so I agreed. Who would have known that it would become like this?"
As Concubine Jiang spoke, she couldn't help but take out her embroidered handkerchief and gently wipe the corners of her eyes.
The relationship between the Han family and the Shu family is somewhat distant, and the head of the Han family has a low official position. If Han Ziyi hadn't been so talented and beautiful, who would have noticed such a prominent figure?
When Chu Ximo heard this, he looked at his mother-in-law in disbelief. How could she say such irresponsible words?
Did she know that the emperor brother was now involuntarily forced by the woman?
If the emperor's brother hadn't known that something was wrong with him and told him secretly, he would have misunderstood him just like his mother and concubine.
That Han Ziyi was clearly on the same side as those people and wanted the emperor to be a puppet.
The father's situation is getting worse and worse. As long as the father dies and the emperor's brother succeeds to the throne, except for the change of the country's surname, other people have the final say.
Is this still his kingdom of Da Chu?
Concubine Jiang looked at Chu Ximo without saying a word for a long time, just thinking that he was angry at Chu Xixuan for confusing people.xdw8
And this person, the Crown Princess, was the one she agreed to in the first place.
"Amo, you..."
Chu Ximo wiped his face, took a deep breath and looked at Concubine Jiang: "Concubine, please don't say more, I understand. You only need to take good care of your father now, and leave the rest to my son. Biyun
You must be careful about your father's diagnosis and treatment, and don't let it leak out. If anything happens, please tell my mother-in-law and my grandfather's family, and I will contact them. I still have something to do, so I will leave first.
Come on. Here, I would like to wish my mother, concubine, and father the best of luck!"
After Chu Ximo said this, he saluted Concubine Jiang and turned to leave.
Today he secretly returned to Beijing. He can't go back to Prince Mo's Mansion now. These days, he will go to Jiang Mansion for a while. It just so happens that he also has something to discuss with his grandfather and the others.
Concubine Jiang looked at the hall that was empty again, and her heart was empty.
Her son has been raised, and during festivals like the New Year, she should be surrounded by her children and grandchildren, but right now, she is not as good as giving birth to a daughter. At least she still has something to look forward to, knowing that she will bring her children and husband-in-law back to her parents' home on the second day of the new year.
But what about her? She and the emperor were left alone!
After Chu Ximo came out of the palace, he went directly to Jiang Mansion.
At this time, the Jiang Mansion was extremely lively, and Jiang Suya rarely returned to Beijing to celebrate the New Year. At this time, she was sitting under Mrs. Jiang's head, and she was talking interesting things to the old lady very obediently.
"Our Suya is really a girl. We haven't seen each other in these years. She has grown up all of a sudden, and even her appearance has inherited the best features of her parents. Look, how handsome she is."
"No! If you go out elegantly during the Lantern Festival this year without wearing a hat, you will probably attract a lot of people. Once the Lantern Festival is over, many people will come to your house to propose marriage."
When Jiang Suya heard those words about the so-called uncle and aunt, although she was angry in her heart, her face was also very hot.
She is about to get haircut, and according to her mother's wishes, she has to go back to Beijing to celebrate the New Year this year, so that she can choose a good son-in-law.
She initially disagreed because her mother was about to give birth. But when she thought that Brother Yang was going to Beijing to take part in the examination, she thought about it for a while and agreed.
She wanted to spend more time with Yang Jiaxiang, and she also wanted to see him pass the exam and be named on the gold medal list.
Mrs. Jiang saw everyone talking and Jiang Suya distracted, so she said: "Suya is sleepy? If she is sleepy, then go to rest first. You are not old yet, so you need to rest more, and you don't have to talk to us.
Let’s watch the New Year together.”
Jiang Suya shook her head subconsciously, but it was boring to think about it. Those people always made her happy, so she nodded again.
"Okay, Na Suya will go down now. When midnight comes, grandma will also rest early!"
Jiang Suya said, stood up and saluted, and then took the peony to her courtyard.
Mrs. Jiang looked around. She knew very well who was present and what they meant.
It was precisely because of this that she asked Suya to rest.
Yang Jiaxiang and the Chang family came to the capital with Chu Ximo, and they lived in the West Garden, an extremely remote courtyard in Jiang Mansion.
The people from Jiang Mansion opened a small door there, and the mother and son entered and exited through that door.
Although the courtyard where the mother and son lived was considered poor in Jiang Mansion and not very popular, for the Chang family, it couldn't be better.
No matter how bad it was here, it was still better than when she was in Ruanjiakeng and later had the house built by others.
When Chu Ximo came over, Yang Jiaxiang was reading a book while Chang was making shoes.
When the mother and son heard the noise coming from the door, they put down their things and turned to look at the courtyard.
"Master Liu, why are you here and you've eaten?"
This courtyard was specially organized after discussions between Chu Ximo and Mr. Jiang.
The West Garden is a bit far away from the main courtyard. When the ancestors of Jiang Mansion established Jiang Mansion, they were afraid that there would not be enough room for their descendants.
It's just that it's locked up by an iron general on weekdays, so no one moves around.
When Chang's mother and son moved into Xiyuan, no one in Jiang Mansion knew about it except for a few important people.
As soon as Chu Ximo entered the West Garden and heard this, he shook his head and looked at Mrs. Chang: "Aunt Chang, if you have something to eat, give me a bowl."
Mrs. Chang hurriedly put down the things in her hands and walked towards the small kitchen.
"Sixth Master?"
Yang Jiaxiang knew Chu Ximo's identity and why Yan Shiqing was with him. Although he was heartbroken, he always told himself that as long as he followed Chu Ximo and helped him, he would be helping his sister Shiqing.
Now that he looks bad, something must have happened.
After Chu Ximo closed his eyes and sorted out all his thoughts, he opened his eyes and looked at Yang Jiaxiang: "Starting tomorrow, I will make arrangements for you to join the sect of Academician Xiong before the examination."
"yes!"
Yang Jiaxiang didn't ask why, he knew that no matter what Chu Ximo did, he had his own reasons, and he just had to follow the arrangements.
This capital is no better than Rongcheng, let alone Jifeng Town.
This is not a place where he can do whatever he wants, nor is he a place where he can be proud of his talents.
