Seeing that Jiang Baizhen's face was getting more and more ugly, Zhu Yan stood up with satisfaction: "Since nothing happens, I'll take my leave."
This time Jiang Baizhen did not stop Zhu Yan, but stared at Zhu Yan's back with wide eyes as he walked further and further away.
"Sure enough, a bitch is the one who got the seed. He is extremely lowly and does not know what is good or bad." What Jiang Baizhen said unintentionally was overheard by Xiao Liangzi who was on duty under the pavilion. He was so shocked that he covered his mouth tightly and hid his body. , to prevent Concubine Jiang from finding out, if Concubine Jiang knew that he had heard, she would definitely kill him and silence him, and she would not stay for a day longer.
Concubine Jiang stood up, looked around, and saw no one was around. Then she walked out of the pavilion and returned to the palace with the maids in the distance.
Now that he had entered the palace, Zhu Yan was not in a hurry to go back, and instead went to the imperial study.
When the emperor learned that his son had come to the palace to see him, he was very happy and hurriedly called him in.
After bowing, the emperor looked Zhu Yan up and down and said with a smile: "I have lost some weight and become more manly. Okay, okay!"
Zhu Yan felt a little warm in his heart. Although his father could not dote on him like an ordinary father, he would occasionally show the care of a father, which made him feel more comfortable.
"Father has also lost a lot of weight. Although state affairs are heavy, we can't work too hard. It's best to take care of yourself."
The emperor nodded: "You are the only one who cares about me so much. People around me wish that I would die of exhaustion earlier. I would be making useless excuses all day long, which makes me unable to even sleep well."
Zhu Yan has always adhered to the principle of keeping silent if the emperor does not ask about matters in the court.
Seeing that he remained silent, the emperor knew that he would not take the initiative to ask about matters in the court, so he said to himself: "Recently, several ministers have asked to choose another princess for you. What do you think of this?"
Zhu Yan glanced at the emperor and said with a smile: "My father must have already made up his mind about this matter, so why bother asking my son again?"
The emperor smiled dryly: "I want to hear your opinion."
Zhu Yan also laughed: "Father, this person who has been promoted is the three ministers of the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Hubu?"
A flash of light flashed in the emperor's dark eyes, full of approval. He stroked his beard and nodded: "Yes, these are the three ministers. What do you think?"
Zhu Yan held up his hands and said, "Excuse me for speaking frankly. As far as I know, these three ministers have always been close to the prime minister. They must have been instructed by the prime minister to do this. Prime Minister Zhuo is thinking about that. Father, isn't it?" Do you understand too?"
Speaking of Zhuo Zhonghai, the original smile on the emperor's face was instantly wiped away, and he snorted coldly: "How can I not understand Zhuo Zhonghai's thoughts? He ******** wants to force me to speak out. The engagement you had with Qin Ya back then was so that he could justifiably give you the concubine in his palace. Hmph - he had a good plan. How could my son, the dignified Prince Jing, marry a mere concubine?"
Zhu Yan was not surprised. He knew his father's thoughts and had heard some stories about his father and Baili Yunyu.
"Then my father plans to reject these three ministers?"
The emperor frowned, with a look of annoyance on his face: "I have to refuse, but I haven't thought of a good name yet. You are not young now, you have great military achievements, and you are a noble prince. You are twenty." It really doesn’t make sense that we haven’t gotten married yet next year.”
Zhu Yan smiled and said: "Isn't this simple? Zhuo Qinya is missing, but she is not dead. Father, you can use the excuse that you are trying your best to find Zhuo Qinya to stop their thoughts."
