The banquet was considered a success, and Chen Su's goal had been achieved. Now everyone knew that this fifth princess of the Jiang Kingdom was deeply loved by the queen, and she was also a piece of the queen's heart.
It's just that Chen Su was still a little disappointed after not being able to capture Concubine Ru's other forces.
When they left the table, Chen Su's visible tiredness covered her brows, as if no one could guess her thoughts.
The same is true for Jiang Huan.
Jiang Huan doesn't like to guess other people's thoughts. All she wants to do is to protect herself.
"Ah Huan." Chen Su spoke quickly, stopping Jiang Huan from leaving, "You are the enemy of Pang Yan today, and the road ahead will not be easy."
The cold wind blew through a corner of the curtain and blew into Jiang Huan's neck, causing her to shrink involuntarily.
Jiang Huan just smiled when he heard this, and looked like he didn't take Chen Su's threat in the slightest, "That's what the Queen said. It's just a matter of the political power, and it should be black and white."
.Prime Minister Pang and I are not the same people, so there is no need to go together."
After that, Jiang Huan helped Chen Ruyi's wheelchair and led him away from the waterside pavilion, never looking back again.
This Chen State is far more difficult to gain a foothold than Jiang State. If you want to protect Jiang State, you have to speed up.
The carriage of the Prince's Mansion was already waiting outside. Jiang Huan helped Chen Ruyi get into the carriage, while he wanted to get into another carriage.
Chen Ruyi stopped Jiang Huan's behavior. He patted the seat next to him and silently motioned to Jiang Huan with his eyes to let her sit next to him.
This carriage was always used by the Prince's Mansion, and it was very spacious. Even if Jiang Huan chose the seat opposite Chen Ruyi, there could still be a small table between them.
Jiang Huan rubbed his hands and handed the hot soup in his hand to Chen Ruyi.
"You are not afraid at all." Chen Ruyi did not take Mrs. Tang, but whispered, "Pang Yan is not easy to provoke. If you provoke him today, if there is a chance in the future, he will definitely smash you to pieces.
"
Chen Ruyi was not threatening Jiang Huan.
The reason why Pang Yan was able to dominate Chen State for so many years was, firstly, because he held the power in his hands, and secondly, the Pang family was rich.
The Pang family was the founding father of the Chen State. The Pang family's grandfather made great contributions to the Chen State. The late emperor rewarded the Pang family, in addition to the jewelry and fief business, the most important thing was the Shangfang Sword.
This sword has been kept by the Pang family in a forbidden place that no one knows about. As long as they possess this sword, they can have the right to avoid death. Even the current emperor of Chen State cannot do anything to them.
It is precisely by relying on this sword from above that the Pang family has been doing evil things in Kyoto. Even if Pang Manman is arrogant, no one dares to mention it.
The reason why the emperor previously rewarded Pang Manman and Chen Ruyi for getting married was to suppress the Pang family's power from continuing to expand.
But then Jiang Huan appeared, and since Chen Ruyi liked it, the emperor no longer forced him to be with Pang Manman.
Although Pang Manman herself was not willing to marry a prince who was about to die, since she had a verbal engagement with the prince and now her position as the concubine was suddenly taken away, she was unwilling to do so and could only resent Jiang Huan's
sudden appearance.
I originally thought that I was deeply loved by the emperor and the dignitaries. Pang Manman would have more say than Jiang Huan, but now it seems that Jiang Huan is more loved by others.
These are nothing more than afterthoughts.
Jiang Huan tilted his head and looked at Chen Ruyi in front of him, "How come he has such monstrous abilities that he can take my head if he wants it, and he can break my bones to pieces if he wants me to?"
Before Chen Ruyi opened her mouth to explain to Jiang Huan, Jiang Huan continued, "It all depends on people. The reason why Pang Yan is able to have a foothold in Chen State is nothing more than the merit accumulated by his ancestors. He is like this
If you commit sins and don't cherish them, you will eventually get retribution."
Jiang Huan said this lightly, as if crushing Pang Yan was as easy as crushing a grasshopper, but Jiang Huan himself knew that Pang Yan's power was deeply rooted and it would not be easy to get rid of him overnight.
Since he made his hostility with Pang Yan clear at the banquet today, there was no need to hide anything from Chen Ruyi.
"Have you ever thought that it's useless to be an empty prince all the time? Why don't you take this opportunity to help you get back what you should have?" Jiang Huan's voice was lowered a little, and her eyes were filled with radiance.
The light came out and he seemed to be very interested in this matter.
Jiang Huan's eyes were shining brightly, and Chen Ruyi looked a little dazed. He coughed twice and brought his thoughts back.
"What I should have? How can you help me get it back?" Chen Ruyi replied.
Jiang Huan suddenly became interested. She made some dancing gestures, and then said seriously, "Although you are the prince now, the powerful officials are dissatisfied with you because you are sick and have not been married to Chen before.
The state has done things that are beneficial to the Chen state. If I want you to regain a certain say in the Chen state this time, then I must first cure your illness."
An imperceptible light flashed in Chen Ruyi's eyes. He quickly suppressed his emotions and listened carefully to Jiang Huan's continued words.
"I have looked at your illness. You were poisoned when you were young and have never been properly cleaned up. Therefore, I have not yet developed a way to completely cure you. But if you can stand up in front of the powerful, they will definitely
I believe you can still be saved."
Jiang Huan's wishful thinking has been made. It is an important occasion for Chen Ruyi to stand briefly.
The best time is when those powerful people look down on Chen Ruyi and humiliate him privately.
It's just that such an opportunity is really hard to find.
The dignitaries are not fools. Although Chen Ruyi is not going to die soon, he is the emperor's darling.
Whatever he wants, the emperor will give it to him without thinking. If he is angered, he is not sure what he will say in front of the emperor, and then he will be executed. No matter how he thinks about it, it is not worthwhile.
"It's just that I think it's difficult to do it well at this time." Jiang Huan said, holding his head and looking out the window with a sad face.
The scenery of Kyoto passed before his eyes, fast and blurry, and Jiang Huan looked a little confused.
Chen Ruyi smiled and shook his head. He patted the back of Jiang Huan's hand and comforted her, "You don't need to be so anxious. Your body is also important. You should pay more attention to it."
