The naughty and cowardly little crybaby sold himself out

Fighting against the Prince's Mansion.

"The Emperor has arranged a marriage for the Eighth Prince? Who is it for? Is it really Chu Xia?"

When she first saw the medical books, she didn't even read them and started gossiping. After Jing Muyang analyzed the situation with her last night, she finally understood what happened in the hall. But today she heard this news, which was simply shocking news!

"It's not Chu Xia, it's the granddaughter of Minister Liu from the Ministry of Personnel." Jing Muyang smiled, "The Queen doesn't want Chu Xia at all. The Liu family is the one the Queen really wants to win over."

"Is the Liu family very powerful?"

"How could I be so incompetent that the Queen would care about me so much?

All assessments, appointments, promotions, demotions, and transfers in the dynasty must go through the Ministry of Personnel. As long as the Ministry of Personnel can give reasonable reasons for promotion, he can place his own people in the position at will, and even the prime minister can't do anything to him.

The Ministry of Personnel has always been in the hands of my father. When the Crown Prince was inspecting the government in the Ministry of Personnel, he had no chance to intervene. The other princes had no chance to inspect the government in the Ministry of Personnel either."

Jing Muyang smiled again.

"And now, although it is an imperial decree issued by the Queen, it is stamped with my father's personal seal. Doesn't this mean that my father has given his trump card to the Eighth Prince? I don't know what the Crown Prince will do now."

"Mu Yang, didn't you say last night that the emperor was determined that the prince would not change his mind? Why did he change in just one night?" Chu Jian was very confused.

"do not know."

Jing Muyang is still investigating, but he is sure that he will not find out that it was the emperor himself who made the mistake.

He held her hand and said seriously, "Chu Jian, there will be a big move in the imperial city next, and I will definitely be involved. No matter what happens, you have to listen to me, understand?"

"Yeah." Chu Jian nodded obediently.

As soon as the imperial edict with the emperor's private seal came out, it was like water in a frying pan. The court suddenly boiled over. The ministers did not dare to express their opinions. Who knew what the emperor was thinking? For a moment, some were happy while others were sad.

The queen was in high spirits. Even if the emperor didn't want to pay attention to her, she would still pay her respects and bring him soup every day. The emperor couldn't really ignore her. She was right in front of him. No matter how sullen she was, she was still the queen. He could only drink it with frustration!

The cost of this shot is too high and cannot be told to anyone.

He couldn't even reveal it to Minister Liu. Otherwise, if that old man knew that I gave his precious granddaughter to him under such circumstances, wouldn't he become estranged from him?

The Queen was really good at planning. She had calculated exactly when he would be careless.

Looking back, wasn't it almost the same when she was made the empress? He was deceived by her sweet words and her sense of the general situation. She always looked like she was not fighting for anything. The emperor only discovered the empress's ambition in the last two years. By the time he found out, the empress already had a huge force that could not be easily shaken.

Unexpectedly, he failed twice in the same place and by the same person. The emperor considered himself unlucky and had to re-organize the court. Anyway, the prince's position could not be shaken.

Donggong had a face full of worry, although no one said it, but many of those who had flattered him and said they would swear allegiance to him until death now had a cold attitude.

The emperor could not openly appease the prince, let alone acknowledge to the prince the good things he had done. He was the emperor and he still had to retain some dignity.

The prime minister was confused. What was going on? He couldn't ask the emperor directly. The emperor was discussing the long-term plan of the dynasty with him two days ago, and he abandoned him in a sudden change of attitude? Was it because of Chu Xia's incident? This wouldn't do. All his efforts were on the prince. If he sacrificed his entire family for a girl, it would be very uneconomical! If he had known earlier, he would have agreed to the queen's request.

Minister Liu of the Ministry of Personnel, this old man is much more steady.

The emperor and empress jointly designated his granddaughter as the legitimate prince. No matter what happened in between, this was at least unique in the past three dynasties. This was a tribute to him and also a signal to him that he should know how to deal with the current situation.

Although the emperor hinted to Minister Liu that he should be loyal to the emperor, he still had to run around, after all, the next emperor was also the emperor. Fortunately, thanks to the emperor for so many years, all his subordinates were his confidants, so he just needed to make a smooth transition to the eighth prince.

It doesn’t matter whose meat is cut, because in the end, no matter whose meat it is, it will end up in the bowl of his precious granddaughter!

What to do? The emperor himself may not know that he has raised an ungrateful person, a fat, fat, and sinister one!

For the next ten days or so, Jing Muyang was very busy, leaving early and returning late. Prince Zhan's mansion was also very busy, busy with various things to do and arrangements. Don't forget, they are getting married soon.

Chu Jian was also very busy. He spent all day in the pharmacy with Jin Xiangzha studying pharmacology.

Three days before the wedding, the palace summoned me and I had to go.

Royal study room.

"I, a humble girl, pay my respects to the Emperor. Long live the Emperor." Chu Jian had learned some basic court etiquette during this period of time. There was nothing she could do about it. She didn't want to die in this place where she had to come in from time to time.

"Well, get up."

The emperor was sitting on top. He was very attracted by the face of this girl he had just met. No matter what the situation was in the tomb or what the reason was, she was still willing to save him even though Xiaojiu's legs could not move. She must have a kind heart and it would be good for her to stay with Xiaojiu.

"Chu Jian girl, you are the eldest daughter of the prime minister. Mu Yang took pity on you because you were not close to the prime minister, so he let you live in the Zhanwang Mansion. But you will get married in two days. You must return to the prime minister's mansion to get married, otherwise it is against the ancestral rules."

"Yes." Jing Muyang had already told her about this in advance, and she agreed softly and obediently.

"Well, it is the Imperial Concubine who is summoning you today. I summoned you here to remind you that being Xiaojiu's princess with your identity will inevitably attract many unpleasant words, so you must remember, no matter who bullies you, I said I would support you and I will support you, just go." The emperor was afraid that she would not understand, so he spoke very bluntly.

"Yes." From the time he entered the door to the time he left, Chu Jian only said two words besides greeting.

In fact, she didn't understand the emperor's intention. Why should she support him? Was there any need to remind him specifically?

But she'll understand in a moment.
