On the day of my tragic death, I was reborn and married to the Regent
Chapter 159: One Pitiful
Emperor Jianning talked too much and started coughing violently. Eunuch Feng quickly helped him to calm down and brought him some hot water.
"Your Majesty, be careful with your dragon body."
The Prince of Yan had spoken no more than two sentences since he came in, but now he finally opened his mouth and said, "You have been cautious in every step. Now that your son has followed in your footsteps, he can be considered to be inheriting your legacy."
"What's the point of calculating everyone? You'll still lose."
Emperor Jianning gritted his teeth, so he hated it.
Prince Yan was silent. He didn't believe what General Lin had said to him. His father had always been good to him, so how could he plot against him?
He was still young at that time and didn't understand. Later, his grandmother told him not to listen to the emperor. Even the queen said that His Majesty didn't like him.
When he asked why, the queen stopped talking.
His brothers and sisters didn’t like him, and he used to be sad, but later he didn’t care anymore.
As he grew older, what he found out made him more and more frightened. The Queen Mother said that it was not the right time and he could not defeat the Emperor.
Over the years, he relied on the apparent favor of Emperor Jianning and finally reached this point today.
"Your Majesty is not feeling well, so please stop talking. I will take care of the Crown Prince and Prince Zhao. Your Majesty should just rest and there is no need to worry."
The Prince of Yan didn't want to talk to him any more, so his men had already taken control of the palace and locked him up in the palace.
"Oh, and thank you, Your Majesty. If it weren't for you, I might not have the power I have today."
Prince Yan had known the truth of the matter for a long time, and when he heard what Emperor Jianning said, there were no ripples in his heart.
But they should never, ever touch Jiang Nian.
There were some people he would not touch originally, but now, he would not let any of Qi Yan's sons go.
Prince Yan came out of Mingyi Hall and went to the Eastern Palace.
The prince was imprisoned and had lost his former temper. He was now sitting quietly in the hall, as if he was waiting for someone.
When he saw Prince Yan come in, his expression was exactly the same as that of Emperor Jianning.
The Prince of Yan was facing the sun, so the Crown Prince couldn't see his expression. He sneered, "Why? Are you here to laugh at my joke?"
"How could that be?" King Yan sneered, and his usually cold tone changed for the first time.
"You've exceeded my expectations and done better than I thought."
If it weren't for the prince's help, it would really take him some time to get rid of Xiao Yinnan.
The King of Yan knew very well who the Crown Prince was.
The prince is indeed a cruel person. He can't even stand up on his legs. How can Xiao Yinnan, a man of unknown origin, be intact?
Since the emperor has given up on him, he has nothing to care about. Even if the throne is not his, it cannot be Xiao Yinnan's.
The emperor disliked him since he was a child, but he was very kind to his younger brother. They were standing in front of him together, but his father just couldn't see him. He did the best homework, but in the end it was his younger brother who was praised.
He did want the position of crown prince, but he wanted his brother to disappear from the palace even more.
Back then, my father, the emperor, and my mother, the queen, said that they wanted to make him the crown prince, but the condition was that the Prince of Yan replace his younger brother.
But his mother did not agree and never asked him whether he was willing or not. As long as he became the crown prince, he would be in the eyes of his father and become the heir to the throne. No one would dare to look down on him in the future.
His mother disagreed, but he agreed, so he got rid of his annoying brother.
He thought that this way he could sit firmly on the throne of the crown prince and no one could pull him down, but his father sent someone to break his legs.
At that time he knew that his father was still the same father, and he would never be in his eyes.
He was just a stepping stone for King Yan.
Later he realized that Prince Yan was as pitiful as he was, and no one in the palace cared about him.
"Third brother, you are just as pitiful as I am. I have ended up like this now. Do you think you can get any better?"
King Yan said calmly, "I am different from you."
"You lose, I win."
The prince killed his brothers and sisters, so he certainly couldn't keep his position as prince, but the Jian family wanted to get rid of Jian Songyue.
The Jian family has also been suppressed recently. They lost the bet and want to find another backer.
Nowadays, there are not many people in the court who have the hope of becoming the next crown prince.
When His Majesty was ill, the Jian family approached the Queen Mother for help. The Queen Mother stepped in and made the decision, allowing the Jian family to take the Crown Princess back.
But just when the Jian family arrived at the Eastern Palace, Jian Songyue died.
He died in the prince's bed, having been tortured beyond recognition.
The Jian family collapsed on the spot, but even if he was under house arrest, he was still the prince. The Jian family did not dare to really kill him. They only carried Jian Songyue's body back and beat the prince up.
When the empress dowager heard that Jian Songyue had died, she didn't say anything. She had long disliked her granddaughter-in-law.
It’s better to be dead now, so that those ugly things won’t be spread out.
The Jian family suffered such a loss, but they could do nothing about the prince because there is a difference between the monarch and his subjects.
As for Xiao Yinnan, his personality has changed drastically since he was unable to stand up due to the prince's injury.
Impossible. He is a man who has lived a second life. How could he not be able to defeat a disabled person like the prince?
But the imperial physician said that he could not stand up with his legs.
The servant outside came in at this moment: "Your Highness..."
"Get out!"
The people below didn't dare to speak. After a pause, they finally said, "Your Highness, the Prince of Yan's concubine is here."
Hearing this, Xiao Yinnan finally calmed down, as if he couldn't believe it, and asked: "Who did you say is here?"
The person below said it again, and Xiao Yinnan was overjoyed: "She came to see me?"
When Jiang Nian heard from King Yan that Xiao Yinnan was disabled, he was so happy that he couldn't sleep all night and came early this morning.
I haven't been this happy in a long time.
As soon as she came in, she saw Xiao Yinan sitting on the chair, looking at her with surprise. Jiang Nian almost laughed out loud: "I heard that you were harmed by someone, so I came to see you."
Xiao Yinan suppressed his excitement and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine."
Jiang Nian raised an eyebrow: "Nothing? It seems that the prince was not ruthless enough."
That's right, she came here today just to add insult to injury.
The smile on Xiao Yinnan's lips froze, and his eyes were filled with indescribable emotions again.
"I heard you sent Jiang Nian back to the Jiang family? Did you find out you were tricked by Jiang Dechang and his daughter?"
The things in Jiang Dechang's hand were of no use to Xiao Yinnan at all. Those things were the evidence used to frame the Lin family.
Those evidences were hidden in the Buddhist temple where her mother suffered, but no one knew about it for so many years.
Those evidences all recorded how the Lin family and the people involved were framed.
If Xiao Yinnan really took the thing in his hand, he would probably not be able to help but strangle Jiang Nian and Jiang Dechang to death, right?
Jiang Dechang was not a tough guy to begin with, and after a few rounds of negotiations with Prince Yan's men, he confessed everything.
Jiang Nian laughed: "Xiao Yinan, you still lose after living again."
