You died to save me, I promise you a lifetime

The eldest princess's motorcade walked out of Prince Zhan's mansion.

The gate of Prince Zhan's mansion was closed again.

Zhao Jingchen instructed Chief Steward Qu, "I think the Third Master will be here soon. He'll probably say that even the Imperial Auntie can come in, so if he can come in too, you should think of a good excuse first."

Manager Qu looked indifferent.

"There's nothing to think about. The eldest princess is the prince's elder, so he has to meet her. He's a junior, so if he doesn't want to meet her, then he doesn't have to. What can he do?"

An Bei burst out laughing.

"That's right, it's not right for a younger generation to force an elder to see him. If he dares to make a scene, let him be beaten."

Mu Yunge looked at the fearless An Bei with a smile.

This little girl.

With the support of elders, my mentality has changed and I have become bolder.

the other side.

Zhao Hongyi returned to the Third Prince's Mansion with a lot of anger.

Seeing his unhappy face, the Wu staff member hurried forward and asked, "Your Highness, what's wrong with you?"

"Zhao Qinghuang is back, and I personally went to the city gate to pick her up. Guess what happened?

She didn't even get out of the carriage, and said, "You are so thoughtful! I am old and very tired after the long journey. Let's get together another day." Don't you think it's infuriating?

"What she said might be true. After all, she is so old and has come such a long way."

"She's old and tired from traveling. Shouldn't she go back to the Princess's Mansion to rest and recuperate first? Why didn't she feel tired when she went to Prince Zhan's Mansion?"

Wu's staff member was shocked. "She went directly to Prince Zhan's mansion?"

"Of course!" Zhao Hongyi was so angry that he flicked his sleeves and left.

Wu's staff member hurriedly followed up and reminded, "In my opinion, her return this time may not be simple. She may have heard something and is in such a hurry to come back."

Zhao Hongyi's mind raced, "You mean, she came back for Zhao Jingchen?

That's right, no wonder she went straight to Prince Zhan's mansion. When she was in the capital before, she was most partial to my good uncle."

Wu's staff member frowned slightly. "She rushed back in such a hurry. Could it be that she has a way to cure the War King's poison?"

Zhao Hongyi clenched his fists. "If that's the case, we're in big trouble."

"Your Highness, there's no need to be too nervous. No matter how powerful Zhao Jingchen is, he's only a prince, and you're the legitimate heir to the throne. Even if the princess has the power to oversee the country, she can't surpass you.

Just follow the plan. In a few days, if the Emperor doesn't improve, the court officials will panic. Then, you can take over all government affairs in a logical manner."

Zhao Hongyi nodded. "You're right. Get ready. I'm going to the Zhan Palace to visit my uncle, and I just happened to run into my great-aunt."

Half an hour later, Zhao Hongyi led a group of his men, carrying generous gifts, and headed to Prince Zhan's mansion with great fanfare.

The people on both sides of the street saw this and started talking about it.

"What is he going to do?"

"What else can we do? The Emperor wanted to massacre Prince Zhan's palace but failed. Now that the Emperor has fallen, he is in charge of all affairs. His actions are nothing more than telling us how virtuous and benevolent he is."

"Hmph, I think he's just a weasel paying New Year's greetings to a chicken, he has no good intentions!"

"That's the thing, but you used the wrong words. Prince Zhan is our hero, and can't be compared to a chicken in your mouth."

"Let's go and follow them to see what tricks they can come up with."

"Let's go!"

Everyone invited each other and pushed and shoved to follow Zhao Hongyi and his group.

At first, Zhao Hongyi was annoyed when he heard everyone talking and wanted someone to drive them away.

His men tried to dissuade him, but he changed his mind and felt that what they said made sense, so he let them go.

Anyway, my goal today is to win the praise of the people, the more people the better.

The people have a good opinion of me, and I will be able to command the support of all people when I ascend the throne.

Zhao Hongyi was thinking about good things and unknowingly arrived at the gate of Prince Zhan's mansion.

But not only was there no one to greet him at the door, the door was also closed, and even the guards guarding the door had retreated back into the mansion.

I clearly sent a visiting card, what's going on?

Zhao Hongyi looked at his subordinates, who reminded him, "Didn't I report this to you? They said the prince is not in good health and can't see him."

Zhao Hongyi patted his head. He was so angry at Zhao Qinghuang that he had actually forgotten about this.

"Go knock on the door. Now that you're here, there's no reason to just go back like this."

His men went up and knocked on the door, but no one answered after knocking for a long time, so they kicked it in anger.

This time, there was a reaction from inside the house.

The small door on the main gate opened and Manager Qu came out.

"What are you trying to do in broad daylight? The prince's condition relapsed last night, and now he's finally feeling better and getting some sleep. Are you dissatisfied with the prince's slow death?"

Zhao Hongyi quickly put on a smile and took a few steps forward: "Eunuch Qu, I have no ill intentions. I just wanted to come and visit the emperor's uncle."

"Third Prince, the prince is seriously ill and cannot see guests. Please go back."

"Eunuch Qu, please be flexible. I'll just take a look. I haven't seen the Emperor's uncle for a long time, and I miss him very much."

miss?

Eunuch Qu stared at Zhao Hongyi for a moment.

If the prince recovered from his illness, could you still pretend to be so affectionate and say you miss him like this?

"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. It is not appropriate for the prince to see guests. I will convey your concern to the prince."

Now, the gentleness on Zhao Hongyi's face could no longer be maintained.

"Eunuch Qu, you said the Emperor's uncle shouldn't see guests, so why can my great-aunt see them but I can't?"

Manager Qu stared at him again.

He said slowly, "The eldest princess is your elder. She has come from afar, so I have to meet her. Could it be that you want your prince to have a reputation of being unfilial?"

Zhao Hongyi waved his hands hurriedly, "Eunuch Qu has misunderstood. This is not what I meant."

"If you don't mean that, please go back. The princess didn't want to disturb the prince's rest, so she left after only a short while."

Zhao Qinghuang has left?

Why didn't I get the news?

Having said that, Zhao Hongyi wanted to say that he would just take a look and leave, but before he could say it, Manager Qu turned around and walked into the door, closing it again.

Even the gifts I brought haven’t been delivered yet. It’s okay that I can’t get in, but it’s also good that the gifts can be delivered.

This old damn dog slave!

"Your Highness, what should we do now?"

"What else can I do? If I can't get in, am I going to die here?"

Zhao Hongyi was so angry that he had no place to vent his anger, so he scolded his subordinates.

The group left in disgrace amid the whispers and giggles of the people.

The people did not follow them, but stood where they were, discussing in low voices with a gloating look on their faces.

"Did you hear that? The Protector Princess is back!"

"Yes, she came back and went straight to Prince Zhan's mansion. The prince now has someone to rely on. Those people who want to bully the prince will have to think twice before doing so."

"The princess holds the power of regent and the sword that protects the country. She can slay the tyrant emperor and kill the treacherous villains. Now, those who harmed the prince should be afraid."

Someone whispered, "That guy just now thought that since the emperor fell ill, he could succeed to the throne, hehe..."

"He is such a sinister and cruel person, how could he be worthy of..."
