She looked at him for a long time until she was sure that he looked annoyed. After thinking about it, she stopped disturbing him.
She reminded him a few words with some displeasure and went out with the palace maids around her.
After she left, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The spring shirt on my back was soaked.
He suppressed the fear that had just surged up in his head and began to plan his next move bit by bit.
With so many eyes on him in the East Palace, just the few glances Lu Siyu had just given him made his heart nearly leap out of his chest. If he were to rely on himself alone, he would be exposed before the next day.
Thinking of this, he immediately pretended to be the prince, took off the jade pendant that had previously belonged to the prince from his waist, and called the guards outside the door into the hall.
"Go to Qingliu Lane in Xianyifang and look for a man named Jiang Shaozhao for me. Once you find him, give him this jade pendant and have him come to see me in the East Palace."
The guard took the jade pendant, answered respectfully, and hurried away immediately.
So from that day on, Jiang Shaozhao became the new aide of the Eastern Palace.
For several days, he used the excuse of feeling unwell and did not sleep with the Crown Princess.
Then he followed the prince's example and twice refused the emperor's advice to take a concubine.
But on the third time, for some reason, the emperor changed his usual behavior and actually agreed to take back Ji Jiaru as a concubine.
Back in the East Palace, Jiang Shaozhao turned pale after hearing his words: "This is bad, the emperor may have discovered it!"
I originally thought that Jiang Shaozhao had changed his appearance and had spent so much time studying the prince's words and deeds, so it should be foolproof.
Unexpectedly, the old emperor, who was already seriously ill in bed at that time, actually realized that he was not the dragon's son!
So he had no choice but to feed the old emperor the medicine himself, and took his hair, and asked Jiang Yuanfeng to cast a curse on the emperor.
Because of this, Jiang Yuanfeng has suffered great backlash since then. At that time, he said that he was afraid that he would have no descendants.
Later, the emperor forgot that he was a fake prince. His illness worsened and he was on the verge of death, but he continued to force him to marry Ji Jiaru.
No, in addition to Ji Jiaru, the old emperor also wanted him to marry many concubines, saying that at the time of transition from the old to the new, he needed a force to help him stabilize the court.
So he pretended to be evasive, but in fact he was more concerned about taking a concubine than anyone else.
He hadn't seen Lu Siyu and Jiang Yan during those days, and he originally thought that apart from them, there were no other threats for the time being and everything was calm.
Unexpectedly, just two days later, when the auspicious day for taking a concubine was chosen, Xu Wenshan from the Imperial Astronomical Observatory came.
Xu Wenshan just glanced at him and frowned.
He bowed humbly and asked, "Your Highness, did you offend anyone today? You seem a little different from usual."
He was extremely humble, but the doubt and questioning look in his eyes was clear.
He was a little confused.
Jiang Shaozhao understood it immediately.
Jiang Shaozhao said to him privately, "This Imperial Astronomical Observatory has some profound abilities. They must have been able to tell that you are different from others by analyzing your aura."
"But am I not exactly the same as the prince now? What's the difference?"
"You don't have the royal purple aura!"
Purple Qi? !
What is purple energy?
What should I do?
Fortunately, Jiang Yuanfeng was indeed a man of great talent and learning. On that day, in order to prevent his identity from being discovered by anyone, Jiang Shaozhao used the birth date and horoscope of the emperor's grandson Jiang Yan as a clue to exchange his life with that of the real Jiang Muyao!
Jiang Shaozhao suffered backlash for saving his life.
But he still took the risk and placed many protective restrictions on himself.
He looked at his body, inside and out, which was exactly the same as the prince's. It seemed that he had finally learned the prince's confidence from his eyes.
With Jiang Shaozhao around, he is no longer afraid!
He used his mystical skills to deal with all those who doubted his identity, and gradually secured his position as crown prince.
He used his strategies to help him gradually build up his own confidants, secretly and silently replacing the power of the Eastern Palace.
No one could tell his past and identity anymore, he became the genuine prince!
However, all the perfect plans always have a crack.
The only exception is Lu Siyu.
He was happily preparing to take Jia Ru as his concubine and getting ready for the wedding, but was accidentally discovered by Lu Siyu.
Lu Siyu was so shocked by his attitude that she came over to question him without even bringing Jiang Yan along.
"Your Highness clearly told me that you think Ji Jiaru is unsophisticated and jealous, and that you don't want her to enter the Eastern Palace. Then why are you preparing all these rules and etiquette comparable to welcoming a consort, and all these betrothal gifts and rewards?!"
"You said you don't like him, so why are you so excited and looking forward to it, even going so far as to hide it from me? Are you afraid I'll find out something?!"
"I would like to ask Your Highness, do you remember the first promise you made to me?"
"Your Highness, do you remember Yan'er and this concubine's birthdays?"
"Your Highness, do you still remember the promise you made to me?"
"Your Highness used to dislike having this asparagus fern in the house. When did you replace it?"
"Your Highness seems to have changed even the taste of his favorite food..."
"..."
She asked him many details about her relationship with the prince, but he couldn't answer any of them.
Although he tried many ways to cover it up, there were always loopholes.
He knew he was finished.
It happened that during those few days, Jiang Shaozhao cast spells on the emperor and the prince, and suffered extremely strong backlash. He had been recuperating and resting, and was unable to help him solve the problem of Lu Siyu.
Therefore, he had no choice but to call the guards, "The Crown Princess has become spoiled and jealous, so she is confined to Xuanming Palace for half a month. No palace maid is allowed to get close to her!"
She was taken away in the surprised and frightened eyes of Lu Siyu and the East Palace guards.
As soon as Lu Siyu left, it took him a long time to suppress his heart from beating out loud.
It's her again.
It's always her!
The words Lu Siyu said were like someone swinging a sledgehammer, hitting the most feared part of his heart one after another with all his strength.
But at that critical moment, he couldn't kill Lu Siyu.
Because if you take action, even after the funeral, the practice of taking concubines will be stopped.
Jiaru told him several times that she was pregnant and it would be impossible to hide it any longer.
Therefore, he could only take a concubine as soon as possible, and then deal with the mess caused by Lu Siyu!
From then on, he was busy preparing to take a concubine.
He originally thought that if he locked Lu Siyu up and put her under house arrest so that she could not communicate with the outside world, she would be obedient and honest, and would allow him to spend his wedding day peacefully.
But unexpectedly, she was still too smart.
Not only did she discover that he was the fake prince, she also knew that the real prince was hidden!
I don't know how she secretly found out the clues about the real prince.
And she did it behind his back on the day he married Jiaru.
On the day of the wedding, the real Jiang Muyao roared in the tunnel when he heard the festive sounds of gongs, drums and suonas in the mansion.
He was afraid of the prince, so he rarely received food during his imprisonment.
Unexpectedly, he persisted for more than half a month and even roared.
He had no choice but to go in and see him for fear of being discovered.
"Oh, Niu San'er..." The prince was a little frail, almost skin and bones. In the dim candlelight, he shook his head with a sigh, then lowered his head and smiled sadly, his lips full of sarcasm.
Even though his identity had changed and he was tied up, the prince still looked as unattainable as before.
"Ever since you killed my brothers, I've wondered if you'd ever harbor evil intentions towards me, or covet anything I own."
He paused, looking at him with a stern and intimidating look, "But seeing that you have always been loyal and have no great ambitions, I thought I was just overthinking..."
He shook his head and chuckled self-deprecatingly: "It seems that I underestimated you. You can kill five princes and even your parents, siblings, and yet you are a man who can be tempted by a woman. So, you did it for Ji Jiaru."
"Stop talking nonsense! If you continue to yell here, don't blame me for being rude!" He didn't dare to look directly into the prince's eyes and could only threaten him with full force.
"Today is my big day. If you continue like this, don't blame me for dragging Lu Siyu and Jiang Yan to be buried with you!"
His ferocious eyes were like those of the treacherous villains in the New Year operas in the past.
He thought the prince would be scared.
After all, he loves Lu Siyu and Jiang Yan so much.
However, he guessed wrong again.
Even in such a situation, the prince did not beg him.
