There are always sick girls with ill intentions towards me

Jiang Feiyan's throat rolled and she couldn't help but take another sip of tea to hide her panic.

It’s all that woman Shen Fengyi’s fault. I’ll make that woman pay when I get back!

Jiang Li moved closer and asked in confusion.

"Mother, why is your face red?"

"No, nothing. It might be a side effect of the pill."

Jiang Feiyan raised her hand and fanned her hot cheeks, but the more she did so, the more guilty she felt.

Helpless, she could only change the subject again.

"Just now your father wanted to make you the crown prince. Did you hear that?"

"Appoint me as the crown prince?" Jiang Li was a little surprised. "Although the crown prince has passed away, there is still my second brother. Why did the emperor choose me directly?"

Seeing her like this, it was clear that she really didn't understand the hidden meaning of Jiang Yunshu's words just now.

"Why do you think I kept him around? I haven't been idle these days."

Drinking intoxicating drugs every day is enough to influence a person imperceptibly.

If Jiang Yunshu was in her prime, she might not have succeeded so quickly.

But Jiang Yunshu's health was no longer good, so he could no longer use any balancing techniques.

The crown prince has been deposed, and Jiang Li is able to maintain the balance with Jiang Yin with his two great achievements.

However, at this time her pillow talk was enough to play a crucial role.

Even adding a little bit of weight would be enough to make the scale lose balance and tip towards Jiang Li.

Otherwise, how could she endure the nausea of ​​seeing this old man every day.

Jiang Li felt touched. Her mother had been supporting her silently.

"Thank you for your hard work, mother."

Jiang Feiyan shook her head. She just ordered a plate of soul-eating rosemary every day. It was not hard at all.

If we really have to talk about how hard it was, it was only when exchanging the Soul-Eating Rosemary. After all, Li Lingge was too big.

"By the way, you have to be careful with Jiang Yin. He might not be able to resist and take action."

"I just got back and he's going to take action?"

If it was a fight on the battlefield, Jiang Li would naturally be able to handle it with ease.

However, after returning to the court and participating in the fight for the throne, she still found it difficult to adapt.

"The spy that Concubine Wan planted here has already gone to report the news. By now, Jiang Yin should have known what Jiang Yunshu just said."

"Did mother do this on purpose?"

Although Jiang Li is not good at party struggles, she is not stupid.

Since Concubine Wan's accomplice had already been discovered, and no one had tried to stop it just now, it could only be that he had done it on purpose.

Jiang Feiyan nodded.

"Although Jiang Yunshu intends to make you the crown prince, after all, the imperial decree has not yet been issued, and there are still too many variables."

There was a fierce light in her beautiful eyes.

"In that case, why not force Jiang Yin to risk everything like the prince did? Then Jiang Yunshu will have no choice."

After a slight pause, she continued her analysis.

“You have an army of 100,000 at your disposal, and they won’t dare to take action until you return to the capital.

As for when you return to the capital, you can consult with Li Lingge. As long as you are well prepared in advance, you can avoid any danger."

"My son, I understand."

When Jiang Li heard the name "Li Lingge", he couldn't help but make a sound.

"Oh, right." Jiang Feiyan seemed to have remembered something and said tentatively, "Your father has chosen a princess for you. After returning to Beijing, you can prepare for your wedding."

"What?!" Jiang Li couldn't help but exclaimed, "Why didn't mother stop me? I don't want to get married yet."

Jiang Feiyan had anticipated Jiang Li's reaction and could only explain patiently.

"If you want to be the emperor, you can't marry Li Lingge. Do you want to remain single for the rest of your life?"

"I!" Jiang Li lowered his head and murmured, "I can marry the senior brother."

Jiang Feiyan's eyelids twitched. She never expected that Jiang Li would have such an idea.

"Are you crazy? Do you want to make your identity public?"

She just felt a little scared. Fortunately, she had blocked Jiang Li's unrealistic idea in advance, otherwise, she didn't know what kind of disaster would be caused in the future.

If Jiang Li really ascended the throne, wouldn't this girl marry Li Lingge arbitrarily?

"Do you think Li Lingge will agree?"

Although she had not met Li Lingge many times, she had a deep understanding of him.

A golden fish should not be kept in a pond. Li Lingge is definitely not someone who is willing to be Jiang Li's queen.

"I-I can wait."

Jiang Li's voice became smaller and smaller, even though she knew that there was little hope for this kind of thing.

After all, the eldest senior brother already has a supervisor and is also with the empress of the Western Zhou Dynasty... Even if she becomes the emperor of the Great Chu, she cannot compare with those two.

But what if, even if there was only a glimmer of hope, she hoped that the wife she married in a formal ceremony would be Li Lingge.

If Li Lingge hadn't helped her choose the path of becoming emperor, she would be willing to give up everything and marry Li Lingge.

But now she has been put up.

The eldest senior brother had put so much effort into her ascension to the throne, she couldn't let him down.

But after ascending the throne, she couldn't marry the eldest brother.

No solution……

Jiang Feiyan seemed to see through her thoughts and hit the nail on the head.

"If you don't get married, you won't be able to stabilize the court. You don't want to disappoint your senior brother, do you?"

Hearing this, Jiang Li couldn't help but stiffen all over.

There was a mist in her eyes and her voice was trembling.

"Aren't you afraid that my identity will be exposed after I get married?"

"The princess your father chose for you is Jiang Ping'er." Jiang Feiyan said earnestly, "She will keep her mouth shut. This is your only choice."

Jiang Li smiled sadly, she raised her head and looked at Jiang Feiyan.

"I'm afraid this wasn't chosen by my father, but by my mother."

When Jiang Feiyan met Jiang Li's sad and beautiful eyes, an idea flashed in her mind.

"This is what your senior brother chose for you."

"Big Brother." Jiang Li was stunned for a moment, then immediately shook his head, "Impossible, absolutely impossible, Big Brother never mentioned this to me."

"If you don't believe me, you can ask him after you return to Beijing." Jiang Feiyan held Jiang Li's cold hand. "You should know that he does this to make your throne more stable."

After a slight pause, her tone became more serious.

"Are you only concerned about your children's personal feelings and let his years of hard work go to waste?"

Jiang Li's red lips trembled slightly, and she felt as if her throat was tightly clenched, unable to utter a single word.

After a while, she sighed as if she had accepted her fate.

"Everything is subject to the arrangements of the Queen Mother."

A month later.

The long and mighty procession returned to the capital. Shen Fengyi had already taken off her phoenix hairpin and was waiting for her own destiny to come.

She wrote an imperial edict to the prince, so she could no longer clear herself from the matter.

Whether to grant her death or banish her to the cold palace depends on whether Your Majesty remembers our old friendship.

Soon, Eunuch Feng walked into Ganquan Palace holding the imperial edict.

"Your Majesty has decreed that Empress Shen be deposed and moved to the West Third Residence, and be granted a personal maid. The servants of Ganquan Palace will be assigned to the Inner Court Department."

He took a step forward and looked at the former queen kneeling on the ground.

"Your Majesty, please accept the order."

Seeing Shen Fengyi in a daze, Eunuch Feng said softly.

"Noble Concubine Jiang pleaded with His Majesty, and only then was your death sentence spared, and no one in the Shen family was implicated. You should just accept the decree."

"The sinner receives the order."

After Shen Fengyi took the imperial edict, Eunuch Feng said softly.

"Prince Wei is waiting for you at West Third House."

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 278 Chen Duling: The dog that the prince asked me to raise is actually

278.

West three institutes.

Li Lingge and Chen Duling stood at the gate of the courtyard, staring quietly at the entrance of the alley.

"Are you not used to being a maid again from a female official?"

"I dare not." Chen Duling immediately knelt down. "If it were not for the prince's grace, I would have been reassigned by the inner court. It is my blessing to continue to serve the queen."

Li Lingge shook his head and corrected himself.

"I asked you to come here not to serve the Queen, but to raise dogs for me."

"Raise a dog?"

Chen Duling was stunned. She already knew that the Queen had been banished to the cold palace.

Concubine Jiang specially arranged for her to come to West Third House and obey Li Lingge's orders.

She knew very well the relationship between the Queen and Li Lingge, so she subconsciously thought that she was here to take care of the Queen.

Unexpectedly, she was just asked to raise the dog.

However, she is content just to be responsible for raising the dog.

The winner makes the loser the king. The moment the prince failed, his fate was sealed.

As a lady-in-waiting beside the queen, she had offended many people in the palace in the past.

She even didn't take the concubines seriously.

It is easy to imagine what she would face if she were assigned to work under those concubines.

Therefore, even raising a pet in the West Three Houses is better than being bullied by other concubines.

Li Lingge lowered his head slightly and looked at Chen Duling beside him.

"Yes, I have a dog in this yard, but it's impossible for me to feed her every day."

"I understand. Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will do my best to take good care of your beloved pet."

Chen Duling turned her head to look at the yard beside her, and she already had a guess in her mind: Li Lingge must be afraid that the Queen would be lonely, so she specially found a pet to entertain the Queen.

Even though the Queen was banished to the cold palace, the prince's love for her remained unchanged.

He really made me cry to death.

When Shen Fengyi appeared in the alley, she was surprised to see that the personal maid the emperor had left for her was actually Chen Duling.

She walked to the door of West Building 3 and asked apologetically.

"Durin, why is it you?"
