Chapter 251: The Princess of the Fallen Kingdom 61
After General Manager Wei settled the selected show girls, he was about to go to look for Yue Sijue when he heard that His Majesty had invited an imperial doctor and hurried to Lingbo Pavilion.
At this time, after the imperial doctor administered acupuncture, Yue Sijue slept very peacefully. However, he easily caught cold while lying on the ground.
Manager Wei trembled with fright and quickly asked the imperial doctor about His Majesty's condition.
The imperial doctor kept saying the same thing, but Manager Wei felt relieved and asked people to prepare a sedan chair to take Yue Sijue to the palace.
Yue Sijue slept for three days. Manager Wei didn't know when he would wake up. It was time to go to court every day, so he called the courtiers at the last minute to inform them that His Majesty would not go to court today.
These ministers thought that His Majesty had just selected the beautiful girl, and it was a fresh time for them. In order to continue to work hard to prolong their heirs, it was normal for them to have no energy to go to court in the morning. Everyone chose to be considerate.
The women in the harem have not seen His Majesty for several days in a row. Logically speaking, His Majesty should hold a banquet to celebrate the end of the draft. If not, it would be good to take the time to meet them and get to know each other.
Although His Majesty has many things to do, it would be too much to neglect them like this.
They are not the daughters of ordinary people. They all have backgrounds. They are the daughter of the chief minister, the daughter of the grand master, the daughter of the minister... By acting like this, aren't you afraid of getting into trouble with your ministers?
Some people have no brains and can only throw things around the house to lose their temper. They are incapable of being furious.
Some people make friends with Aunt Jinxiu and learn about His Majesty's whereabouts from her.
There are also people who are content with whatever comes their way, and the years are quiet and peaceful.
However, those who inquire about His Majesty's whereabouts are doomed to be disappointed, because Aunt Jinxiu does not know Yue Sijue's situation. She is only an aunt in charge, so there is no way she has the ability to spy on the Emperor's whereabouts.
If we can't find out His Majesty's whereabouts, then we can always ask for some gossip, right?
Queen Jingshu, the Queen of the Secretariat, who gave Aunt Jinxiu a lot of gold and silver jewelry, hinted that she would say something useful, and the benefits would not come in vain.
"This... this slave knows something." Aunt Jinxiu hesitated for a moment, but finally revealed, "His Majesty led the cavalry to attack the Jiang Kingdom, and when he returned to the court, he brought back a woman."
"I have heard a little bit about this." Wang Jingshu heard that the woman was from the Jiang Kingdom, and she was as beautiful as a fairy, and was very favored by His Majesty.
"What else do you know?" Wang Jingshu motioned for her to start talking.
"This woman's surname is Jiang. Eunuch Wei always calls her Miss Jiang, but the maids around her always call her princess."
"Your Majesty has not canonized Miss Jiang, but she has been living in Laiyi Palace."
"Your Majesty has not summoned Miss Jiang since she entered the palace, but Eunuch Wei has always been very polite to her."
Aunt Jinxiu knows that much.
This has revealed a lot of information. Your Majesty brought back someone from outside the palace, who is suspected to be Princess Jiang.
She was extremely doting on her. Lai Yi Palace was the residence of all the queens of the past dynasties, and it was well known in the circle of famous ladies. If she was not given the title of queen, she might be afraid of the ministers.
Not summoning her easily is to protect her.
Wang Jingshu started to feel sour after analyzing it.
Your Majesty already has a loved one, so what do they count? Are they just pawns to stabilize the courtiers?
Why is it that the person Your Majesty loves is not me?
"I think we should go meet this Miss Jiang." Wang Jingshu and Yan Qingwan held a small meeting and told them all the news they had received.
Now that they have not even seen His Majesty, they are not enemies yet. They can form an alliance and deal with the real enemies first.
"How come we meet? We can't even get out of Chaoyang Palace."
"We promised that we could summon our family members, but there is no imperial edict. We are not allowed to go anywhere except Chaoyang Palace. Does Your Majesty intend to imprison us?"
The former is asking questions, the latter is just complaining.
"I'll think of a way." Wang Jingshu said, "Let's take action together then."
The law does not punish the public. If she was not afraid that one person would not be able to bear His Majesty's punishment, she would not bother to take them with her. It was really hard to communicate with them. It was like playing the piano to an ox.
