Chapter 141 The Heart of the Emperor
Jiang Yunxi lowered his head, hesitated for a while, and finally spoke honestly, "I don't know."
Zhao Changyu sighed helplessly, turned around and walked out of the prison first.
Jiang Yunxi waited until Zhao Changyu's back was out of sight before he slowly walked forward.
She met Nan Nan who came back to find her.
Seeing that Jiang Yunxi looked really bad, Nan Nan said with concern, "Princess, let's go back."
"The letter of withdrawal of engagement has been given to Mu Kang, right? This matter must not implicate grandma or the Mu family." Jiang Yunxi's tone was very calm.
"It has been sent." Nan Nan felt that Jiang Yunxi had left a will, and she couldn't help but feel very worried, "Prince An... His Majesty has always loved you and will not kill you."
Jiang Yunxi thought of the things in his previous life and chuckled lightly, "Nannan, never underestimate the heart of the emperor at any time."
======Cining Palace======
"Mother, now that I have just ascended the throne, I still hope that you can temporarily take charge of the affairs of the harem." Zhao Changyu's tone was sincere, and it didn't sound like he was being polite.
Jiang Xueyi would naturally not disappoint Zhao Changyu with such a free benefit. She readily agreed, "Okay, I will take over the responsibility of managing the harem temporarily."
"But... I still want to advise you. Although you have deep feelings for the late princess, you still need to have children. Even if you don't have a queen, you should have a royal concubine to rule the six palaces. After all, I am old and don't have the energy to take care of it."
The corners of Zhao Changyu's mouth curled up invisibly, "I have an idea in my mind."
Sensing the change in Zhao Changyu's mood, Jiang Xueyi was naturally happy for Zhao Changyu, but she couldn't help but worry, "What if the newly elected queen is a restless person..."
"I wonder which noble lady has won the favor of His Majesty?" Jiang Xueyi wanted to make some preparations first.
Zhao Changyu tightened his mouth at this time. He remembered that she almost broke up with him last time he made the decision for her. He was still afraid and didn't dare to act first and ask for permission later. "I want to ask her first."
Seeing that she couldn't get anything out of him, Jiang Xueyi nodded and thought about finding out something from others.
"Where is Yun Xi? I haven't seen her in the past few days." Zhao Changyu mentioned it seemingly unintentionally.
Jiang Xueyi was instantly alert.
Ever since Jiang Yunxi killed Zhao Zheyong and returned from the Heavenly Prison, he told Jiang Xueyi the whole story.
Of course, Jiang Yunxi did not say anything about his previous life.
Jiang Xueyi was very surprised at the time, and felt that she seemed to never understand the child she raised. But after being shocked, she felt very sorry for the child. She knew that the child had done many things without telling her, but had never done anything for her.
"If Yun Xi did something selfish, it must have been because of me. Your Majesty also benefited from what she did. So, I'll beg for mercy on her behalf and spare her life. Yun Xi said that she is willing to go to Guang'an Temple to practice asceticism and never leave for the rest of her life."
Zhao Changyu's expression suddenly turned ugly. "She said that herself? I'll go see her."
Zhao Changyu bowed to Jiang Xueyi and walked towards Jiang Yunxi's yard.
Nanny Su was about to remind her, but Jiang Xueyi raised her hand to stop her.
Nanny Su hesitated and said, "The princess has been seeing no one. If... His Majesty is also turned away, will His Majesty be angry and want to kill her?"
