The emperor sighed and continued to work in the imperial study.

However, when he thought of Jiang Zhao's appearance just now, he felt very uncomfortable.

"Tell me...why is Jiang Zhao always unwilling to pay attention to me?"

"..."

He looked at Li Haitang.

Li Haitang sighed and didn't know how to tell the emperor.

You can't tell the emperor that Jiang Zhao just isn't close to you.

He quickly said, "Your Majesty, there is no need to be so anxious. Anyway, His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince... doesn't pay much attention to the Queen."

The emperor was immediately delighted by these words. "Oh my, Li Haitang! You are so nice to hear. You solved such a big problem for me in just one go!"

"Yeah, anyway, Old Nine doesn't pay much attention to the Queen, and doesn't pay attention to me...it doesn't matter."

After that, the emperor continued to review the memorials, "Do whatever you want, Jiang Zhao doesn't care about anyone anyway."

Tsk tsk, I felt happy all of a sudden.

......

Ninth Prince's Mansion.

Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining both returned to their own residences, and Jiang Zhao repeated to Chen Zhining what he had said to the emperor in the imperial study.

In his room, Chen Zhining took a sip of jasmine tea and then said to Jiang Zhao with a frown.

"So... that's what our father said? It's really hurtful."

Jiang Zhao nodded, and then said with a cold look, "There's nothing I can do about it. This old man is not a good person. I have discovered it."

I had discovered before that this old man was not a good person. He could actually make things difficult for a child who had nothing to do with these things, namely myself, just for the sake of the queen's child.

The queen didn't think she was his son before, so since this was someone else's child, it was understandable that the queen didn't like him.

But if the emperor didn’t like him very much, that would be quite uncomfortable and outrageous, after all, he was also the emperor’s son.

Jiang Zhao frowned and said to Chen Zhining: "Anyway... I didn't have any high expectations for the emperor. I knew before that the emperor was just an ordinary emperor, an ordinary monarch, so I'm not surprised that he is like this now."

Hearing his words, Chen Zhining was stunned, and then said with some heartache.

"Oh, don't think so! Maybe His Majesty loves you very much."

"I think His Majesty loves you very much now. Now... he is the only one who treats a person who has nothing to do with him like this. He treats the Second Prince's wife like this, but I don't think he will treat others like this either."

As she said that, she sighed and said to Jiang Zhao.

"Since Your Majesty is unwilling to intervene in the affairs of the Second Prince's Mansion, then forget it."

"Let's not get involved in this anymore."

"It's just... I'm afraid the Second Prince's wife feels a little aggrieved."

"After that, we can bring the Second Prince's wife here often. She will be crowned as the Crown Princess soon anyway. The three of us can often play in the East Palace, or in my Ninth Prince's Mansion."

"No matter what, we can't make Second Sister-in-law angry."

"That's right. My second sister-in-law has worked hard over the years, even if she hasn't made any contributions. She has been working hard to run this family."

Jiang Zhao frowned and said to Chen Zhining, "Before you married into our Ninth Prince's Mansion, you didn't know that my second brother also had a family at that time, but he often went to brothels."

"I'm not telling the truth, but he hangs out in brothels... but it's true. I don't know how many prostitutes, concubines, and maids he has brought into the mansion. It's really troublesome."

"But even so, our second sister-in-law didn't say anything. She just treated our second brother with respect."

"Such a good sister-in-law, so tolerant, but now... because of this incident, she has suffered such a great injustice. Sigh, I really don't know how Kyoto will spread her reputation in the future. Her reputation is probably ruined."

Jiang Zhao frowned. Even though he had no connection with the Second Prince's Consort, he felt sorry for her. After all, she had suffered a lot of grievances.

Especially the fact that the Second Prince was going to the Buddhist temple. If this were to get out, the Second Prince's wife would not be able to save her reputation.

Even if it wasn't spread out, the Second Prince's Mansion couldn't save its reputation anymore. The Second Prince's Mansion was really in a state of panic.

Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining looked at each other, shook their heads, sighed and said.

"The Crown Prince will be getting married soon. I hope the joy of his marriage can dispel the hostility in the Second Prince's Mansion."

Jiang Zhao nodded and said, "We will go to the Yingwu Marquis's Mansion tomorrow and bring the Second Prince's Consort with us."

"Even if it's my second brother, he doesn't dare to say anything if he doesn't like my second sister-in-law. Let's take her with us."

"Let Second Sister-in-law stay in our Ninth Prince's Mansion for a while, or let Second Sister-in-law and Miss Luo live together in the East Palace."

"Row."

Chen Zhining nodded.

They were talking when they suddenly heard Feicui's smiling voice outside.

"Your Highness the Ninth Prince, His Majesty the Ninth Prince's Consort, outside, our Marquis is coming."

"Master Hou?"

"yes, Sir."

Chen Zhining said with a smile: "Let big brother in quickly."

"Yes."

But after a while, Chen Bo came in.

After Chen Bo came in, he bowed to Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining, "Your Highness the Ninth Prince, Your Majesty the Ninth Prince's Consort."

His voice was calm and steady, which made Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining happy.

Chen Zhining smiled.

He said to Chen Bo: "Brother, why are you here today?"

Chen Bo also smiled and responded to Chen Zhining, "My mother asked me to come here."

"Mother asked me to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and our future Crown Princess what kind of status Miss Luo wants."

"It will be arranged tomorrow."

"Please meet me in a few days, Her Majesty the Crown Princess."

Hearing this, Chen Zhining smiled in surprise and said, "We haven't informed mother yet."

"Tomorrow, we will take Miss Luo to the Marquis' Mansion. Our mother doesn't need to make any arrangements in advance. We will talk about it when we get there tomorrow."

When Chen Bo heard this, he nodded and said to Chen Zhining with a smile.

"It seems... Mother and this Miss Luo do have some fate, otherwise they wouldn't be able to be so close in thought."

"At this moment, both parties knew that the other party was coming."
