Chapter 194: Only familiarity
Combining so much information, Jiang Wansang also understood the general truth of the matter.
The emperor wanted to monopolize power and take back the military authority, and the first person to be targeted was General Zhenyuan.
In order to surrender to the emperor, Wan Zhaoyi sacrificed her own family for the sake of justice and took the initiative to report the crime, which earned her special treatment from the emperor.
No wonder Wan Zhaoyi is arranged to be a small boss in the book. With such courage and means, she is indeed capable of becoming the empress dowager.
But the emperor's heart is unpredictable, and the current emperor is a cruel and suspicious man.
Even if he treated Wan Zhaoyi and her son differently because of this incident, he should have promoted them to the position of concubine, bestowed them with precious items, and expressed his favor openly.
This kind of open disparagement and covert pampering, as well as protection in various ways, really seems to be full of true feelings.
But if the emperor had true feelings for Wan Zhaoyi and her son, how could he be so cruel to General Zhenyuan?
Even if he wanted to seize military power, he would not execute the entire family and leave no one alive.
Jiang Wansang directly asked about the doubts and confusions in her heart.
She felt that Pei Zhanzhou had been with the emperor for so many years, and as his "confidant", he must know some things that others did not know.
Pei Zhanzhou knew that someone as smart as her would definitely think of this, but he really didn't know the specific situation.
That person was suspicious by nature, and even his confidant who had risked his life for him and planned everything for him had never been truly trusted.
But one thing he was sure of.
"That person's protection of Wan Zhaoyi and her son could not possibly be out of true love."
How could a person who would abandon and use even his blood relatives who risked everything to protect him have true feelings?
Jiang Wansang felt the low pressure he exuded at this moment and guessed that he must be thinking of some bad memories.
She vaguely felt that when Pei Zhanzhou was talking about having a grudge against the entire Nansu royal family, he was mainly referring to the emperor.
Jiang Wansang didn't know what to say for a moment.
In her previous life, she lived in the apocalypse for many years and encountered a man who was stronger than her and tried to snatch supplies from her. She almost lost her life because of this. In the end, she managed to escape with great courage and risked her life, barely saving her life.
In the end times where the strong prey on the weak, this is a very common thing. Most people would probably think they are unlucky if they encounter such a situation.
But she managed to find out the man's information and chased him for thousands of kilometers.
In her opinion, if there is a grudge, just kill them directly. If she is not satisfied, beat them up first and then kill them.
What kind of deep hatred could make Pei Zhanzhou endure humiliation and stay by his enemy's side to plan, almost losing his life countless times, just to disrupt the entire Nansu royal family?
Jiang Wansang knew very well that as an outsider, she had no right to persuade Pei Zhanzhou to give up his planned way of revenge.
Just like when she was chasing the man who stole her supplies, everyone around her advised her to give up, or just take the supplies back, but she ignored the danger and hardship and killed the man who almost took her life with her own hands.
So Jiang Wansang didn't try to persuade Pei Zhanzhou, but instead reached out and patted him on the shoulder, "Since we are allies, please let me know if you need any help."
She patted her chest confidently, "I don't have any other skills, but I'm best at chopping off people's heads. I guarantee that when someone's head falls off, they'll still be able to see their own corpse alive."
Pei Zhanzhou, who was somewhat moved by her previous words, said: "..."
He inexplicably thought of the illegitimate son of the Minister of War who had died in the palace.
He had seen the scene at that time and saw that the man's head was cut off in one stroke, and the direction of his head was exactly where his body fell.
Pei Zhanzhou's mouth twitched. "Where did you learn this... technique?"
He didn't know how to describe her ability for a moment. After all, what girl from an ordinary family would study how to chop off people's heads for no reason and look very proud of it?
Jiang Wansang was indeed very proud, and he held his chin high. "Nothing special, just practice."
Pei Zhanzhou: “…”
How many heads did she have to chop off to become so skilled?
Pei Zhanzhou inexplicably felt a chill on his neck.
He had to be more careful next time and never make this woman angry.
Jiang Wansang had no idea that she had inadvertently tamed Master Pei, and brought the topic back to the topic.
"Su Huanyu's plan is so good, we can't let him succeed."
In just a few words, he clearly separated Su Huanyu from "us". Pei Zhanzhou raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "What are you going to do?"
Jiang Wansang certainly wouldn't fight Su Huanyu herself. She smiled slyly, "Have you heard of using a knife to kill someone?"
She is not the only one who wants Su Huanyu to be in trouble, especially the prince who he once used as a shield.
If the prince knew that he wanted to repeat the same trick and make Jiang Gaoyuan imitate him and show weakness and seek shelter, the prince would never let him go.
So, that night, a letter stating that "Jiang Gaoyuan and Su Huanyu have formed an alliance" appeared in the study of the Crown Prince and the Third Prince.
Now, the Crown Prince and the Third Prince, who had been very attentive to Jiang Gaoyuan, changed their attitudes and even openly put a lot of obstacles in his way.
Although Jiang Gaoyuan has been under house arrest recently, the topic of Prime Minister Jiang has always been a hot topic in the court. This is naturally the work of the crown prince and the third prince.
The emperor was of course well aware of the fight between the princes, but he did not stop it.
Throughout the dynasties, the most taboo thing for those in power was forming cliques for personal gain. Jiang Gaoyuan's behavior clearly touched upon this point, and that was why the emperor was furious and punished him with house arrest.
But apart from house arrest, no matter how much trouble Jiang Gaoyuan caused in the court, the emperor never made any other statement.
It was as if Jiang Gaoyuan's factional activities were condoned by him.
If this is true, then it is worth pondering what status the Seventh Prince, to whom Jiang Gaoyuan has defected, represents in the emperor's heart.
Because of the emperor's reaction, the voices attacking Jiang Gaoyuan in the court gradually became fewer, and even many people slowly proposed that Prime Minister Jiang should return to the court.
When Jiang Wansang heard the news, she guessed that Jiang Gaoyuan would soon be released from house arrest.
It seems that the emperor treats his son Su Huanyu differently.
If we can't figure out the emperor's specific attitude towards Su Huanyu, it might be a big trouble.
Jiang Wansang walked slowly forward while thinking about how to find out this.
She had just finished her meal and went out for a walk.
Ever since the incident was brought to the Dali Temple, people in the Prime Minister's Residence would hide whenever they saw Jiang Wansang. Even the masters didn't dare to jump in front of her.
After all, there are only a few people in history books who dared to sue their parents, even their adoptive parents, to the Dali Temple.
Jiang Wansang felt like she was strolling around the huge prime minister's residence in her own back garden, and she felt indescribably comfortable.
She was about to turn the corner and walk in the other direction when she heard two arguing voices.
