The words sounded calm and peaceful, but after the guards left, Ah Man did not fall asleep peacefully as they had imagined. She was waiting for the guards' reply. She was not worried about their execution ability, she was only worried about her father.
She wanted to know her father's attitude.
Su Jing was woken up by Xiao Yuzi. His health had been getting worse recently and he spent a long time sleeping every day. He had previously told Xiao Yuzi that if there was any emergency, he must wake him up.
But during this period, Xiao Yuzi never disturbed his dreams. Xiao Yuzi even said with a smile that in his eyes, nothing was more important than the emperor having a good sleep.
So after realizing that Xiao Yuzi had woken him up, Su Jing's heart tightened, and all he could think about was A'man and Xuan'er. Those were the two children he was most worried about. He was afraid something might happen to them, because in his heart, nothing was more important than these two children.
"Your Majesty, it's Princess A'man's matter. It's a big matter. I want to know your attitude." Xiao Yuzi probed softly. Seeing that Su Jing showed no signs of being annoyed, he continued softly, "This matter is actually related to Princess Jinxiu. Today, she asked her servants to find a painter of the Chun Palace in the Qin Tower outside and went to Princess Jiaoyang's palace."
As Xiao Yuzi spoke, he could already sense the low air pressure around him. He mustered up his courage and continued, "Princess Jinxiu not only wants that man to paint Princess Jiaoyang, she also wants that lunatic..."
Xiao Yuzi still didn't have the courage to say the last words. He had followed Su Jing for many years and knew how much he cared about Princess Jiaoyang.
"Your Majesty, Princess Jinxiu is acting more and more like Concubine Zhu. If she succeeds, then Princess Jiaoyang... If the Queen's spirit in heaven knew about this, I don't know how sad she would be, and..."
Xiao Yuzi wiped his tears as he spoke, looking sad for the Queen. Su Jing knew that he was just putting on a show, but he couldn't help but feel sad too.
His queen has liked Ah Man the most in recent years, so naturally she doesn't want anything to happen to Ah Man.
"The lunatic entered the Canyang Palace and was captured by the princess's guards. But when the princess found out that it was Princess Jinxiu who did it, she was very angry. In a rage, she ordered someone to send the lunatic to Concubine Zhu's palace. The princess couldn't be blamed for this. It was Princess Jinxiu who went too far. She actually..."
While observing the emperor's emotions, Xiao Yuzi softly explained to Ah Man that it seemed that Ah Man had ordered such a thing only in anger, and even if the emperor wanted to hold her accountable, he would only hold her accountable for not being able to control her emotions.
Su Jing naturally knew Xiao Yuzi's speaking skills, so he followed his words and said, "Then remember to go to Canyang Palace tomorrow and tell the princess to control her emotions in the future. Just say it was me who said it."
"I will tell the princess tomorrow morning, Your Majesty, don't worry."
"Well, if there's nothing else, you can go down first. I'm very tired." After saying that, Su Jing lay back on the bed without asking about Concubine Zhu's situation.
When Xiao Yuzi knew the emperor's attitude, the worries in her heart suddenly disappeared. As long as the emperor did not blame them, the princess and the emperor would not make trouble in the palace, and then the father and daughter would live in peace. She would have done what the prince had instructed.
What Xiao Yuzi didn't expect was that when he turned to leave and walked to the door, he suddenly heard the emperor's order. He said: "Since all this was caused by Jinxiu, don't forget to call her when you watch the fun."
As soon as Su Jing finished speaking, he closed his eyes tiredly, and after hearing the emperor's words, Xiao Yuzi could no longer conceal the excitement in his eyes. The emperor was openly protecting Princess Jiaoyang and the prince.
With the emperor's attitude this time, I'm afraid no one in the harem will dare to provoke Princess Jiaoyang and the prince anymore.
This result is really better than expected.
