Chapter 125 "Humph, doesn't my brother miss me? Ask my uncle when we meet!"
Seeing Shen Changle's resistance to this extent, Jiang Ci'an didn't dare to say anything more.
But I don’t know...what other solution there is to this problem.
If Anyue joins forces, Qi will surely be defeated.
Persuading An Guo to withdraw his troops is indeed the only breakthrough!
But he couldn't tell her his true identity either...
If Changle knew that he was the only descendant of the Anguo royal family, she would definitely leave him immediately!
How could the little princess, who was cherished as a treasure by the Emperor of Qi, marry into another country as a royal marriage?
Ugh……
If only he had been born in Qi...
"Okay, no more talking, let's go to sleep."
He pressed Shen Changle's head into his arms and patted her gently.
Seeing that her breathing had stabilized, he held her in his arms and fell into a deep sleep.
The next day, Shen Changle still thought that the emperor's uncle was still autistic.
But unexpectedly, he dressed up and went out early.
Just ignore people.
After breakfast, I picked up Wang Xiao’s school box and took him to class on my own!
But Shen Changle was shocked.
I didn’t expect Wang Xiao to be so strong?
Captured the emperor's uncle in one go?
Seeing her stunned, Wang Xiao chuckled.
"Uncle, Aunt, we're going to class! See you tonight!"
"Uh, okay! Baizhi...you come with us, and don't let anyone offend the emperor's uncle."
"Yes!"
The white pheasant was also very curious. After coming to his senses, he immediately went to harness the carriage.
After seeing the two off, Shen Changle still found it unbelievable and went back to the house to tell Jiang Ci'an.
"Ci'an, guess who sent Wang Xiao to the study today?"
"Hmm? Old Nine?"
Shen Changle shook his head, sat down beside the bed mysteriously, and whispered:
"It's the Emperor's uncle!"
"is it?"
Jiang Ci'an opened his eyes wide in cooperation.
"How could this be?"
"I guess it was because Wang Xiao performed so well when he brought him food last night that he won the emperor's uncle's heart?"
Shen Changle's words made Jiang Ci'an laugh out loud.
"Don't let your uncle hear what you said."
"Humph, what's wrong with telling the truth!"
The two were still chatting and laughing.
Xuanque came hurriedly to report:
"Miss! The Emperor..."
He walked closer but lowered his voice, his face still showing panic.
"Your Highness, the Emperor is here!"
"What? Where are you?"
Shen Changle stood up suddenly.
He looked out with surprise and anticipation.
"We've reached the entrance to the alley. The county magistrate is leading the way. There are only the emperor and General Lu."
"So fast!"
She glanced at Jiang Ci'an with joy and walked out quickly to greet him.
Great, my brother is here!
She seemed to see hope of persuading the emperor's uncle!
she knows……
If there is anyone in this world who can change the emperor's uncle's decision, that person will only be the emperor's brother!
Jiang Ci'an had a very bad feeling and couldn't feel happy.
Or maybe it was because he heard Lu Mingchao's name that made him feel disgusted from the bottom of his heart...
Regardless, he got out of bed and put on his clothes.
Greeted him politely.
When they reached the corridor, Shen Changle had already led his men into the courtyard.
She held Shen Changning's hand and walked happily in front;
Lu Mingchao stood behind him and looked around with disdain;
Sun Ran, who was following at the end, had already hunched over like a shrimp. He kept raising his hands to wipe the cold sweat from his face, not even daring to lift his eyelids.
When they reached the center of the courtyard, Shen Changle saw him standing in the corridor.
She waved to him with a sweet and lovely smile on her face.
"Ci'an! My royal brother is here!"
Jiang Ci'an has always been unable to resist Shen Changle's smile.
Walk down the stone steps.
Bow obediently.
"Brother Royal."
Shen Changning looked down at him condescendingly.
When he heard him follow Changle in calling him Royal Brother, the smile of reunion faded from his face.
His eyes darkened and his expression became unclear.
"Royal brother, Ci'an is greeting you!"
Shen Changle pulled his arm, urging him to respond quickly.
Shen Changning had no choice but to smile indulgently and rub Shen Changle's hair.
"Okay, I heard you."
He looked at Jiang Ci'an again, his tone indifferent:
"Get up."
Jiang Ci'an stood up and when he looked up, he met Lu Mingchao's hateful eyes.
Seeing him, he wanted to eat him alive, but he could only stand there and endure it!
This made Jiang Ci'an in a good mood.
He raised the corners of his lips proudly and wantonly.
He turned sideways and let Shen Changning into the house.
"Brother, please come this way."
But after Shen Changning entered the room, he raised his arm to stop Lu Mingchao behind him.
"Stray people, please stay!"
"you!"
He was furious, his face flushed red, and veins on his forehead bulged.
But because the emperor and the princess were both there, he didn't dare to act rashly, let alone say anything!
He didn't know yet... everyone in the house knew that he had been crippled, and they were still trying to hide it from Shen Changle.
He could only clench his sword tightly in anger.
Gnashing his teeth, he warned Jiang Ci'an in a low voice:
"Don't be so arrogant, I won't let you go!"
"Humph."
Jiang Ci'an glanced at him calmly, then slammed the door shut.
Shen Changle was immersed in joy and didn't care about the secret fight between the two of them.
He pulled Shen Changning to sit at the table and warmly brewed his favorite tea.
"When I heard that my brother was coming, Ci'an ordered people to prepare tea long ago. Although it's definitely not as good as the ones in the palace, it's better than other teas!"
She tried to help Jiang Ci'an gain some favorability.
But it made him, who was usually aloof, feel a little embarrassed.
Facing Shen Changning's inquiring eyes, he tilted his head and coughed lightly.
Avoided eye contact.
Shen Changning knew what was going on and smiled without saying anything.
He picked up Changle's tea and took a sip out of courtesy.
"Well, not bad... Where's the Regent?"
Imperial uncle...
She feels depressed when she mentions her uncle.
She pouted reluctantly.
"Humph, doesn't my Royal Brother miss me? Ask the Royal Uncle as soon as we meet!"
Shen Changning tilted his head, raised his eyebrows, and asked with a smile:
"What? Did you have a quarrel with the Emperor's uncle?"
When Shen Changle heard him say this, he immediately hugged his arm in grievance and started to complain:
"Yes! Royal brother, the royal uncle bullied me!"
"Oh? What's going on?"
Shen Changning put down the teacup and asked with concern.
Shen Changle sighed and told the whole story truthfully.
"I don't know why, but the Emperor's uncle insisted that Jiang Ci'an go to the battlefield. I didn't want him to, and he even went on a hunger strike..."
Go to the battlefield...
Shen Changning, who knew Jiang Ci'an's identity, could more or less guess the emperor's uncle's intentions.
He looked at Jiang Ci'an meaningfully.
"What about you? What did you say?"
Jiang Ci'an looked at Shen Changle's expression and answered obediently.
"I listen to Changle."
Shen Changle was very satisfied with his answer and explained to Shen Changning:
"The uncle said that if he could achieve military merit, he would recognize him as his son-in-law. He agreed, but..."
She lowered her head and picked at her fingers.
"I still don't want him to go to the battlefield."
The emperor's brother is different from the emperor's uncle.
The emperor is the person closest to her.
In front of her royal brother, she could speak freely and without any scruples.
But the Emperor's uncle...
She knew that in the emperor's uncle's heart...
The Qi Kingdom is more important than anything else.
She had to find a way to protect Jiang Ci'an under the emperor's uncle's priority of putting the country first.
