Chapter 193 The Unexpected Prince

"Have you met Chen Yushi?" It always makes people feel a little strange that the governor of Wei Helian, the police officer, has something to do with a censor.

"Don't worry! It's just a chance meeting in the government office, and I said a few words in a hurry, so it won't attract attention. However, Chen Yushi expressed his thanks very much. The person you deliberately asked me to hide the idea that day was you. I bear this false name, but it makes me somewhat ashamed."

"When did Governor Helian go out like this?" Xu Jiao smiled at him, "Captain Helian just took it as a trouble for me! However, it's great that Mrs. Chen can get better, at least, save me. I lost my life." Xu Jiao paused with a slight smile, and naturally thought of Wei Wuniang again, but Wuniang's luck was a little bit worse after all.

He Lianshu looked at her and squinted his eyes, "I didn't know you were so well informed, how did you know that there is such a Dr. Long in the humble Xinglin Hall who is good at detoxifying strange poisons?"

Xu Jiao laughed twice, of course he saw it in the book, but he couldn't say it. "I just found out about it by accident. At that time, Miss Chen's situation could only be tested. In the end, she should die herself."

He Lianshu looked at her deeply, unable to see whether he believed her words or not, but he didn't dwell on the matter any longer, and instead said, "I'm here today, and I have one more thing to tell you. The candidate for the prince , I'm afraid it will be finalized."

Xu Jiao's smile faded slightly, she didn't care who the crown prince was, but once the crown prince was chosen, her marriage would probably be on the agenda soon, so she cared very much.

On the third day after He Lianshu reminded Xu Jiao, the decree of the crown prince came down.

No one would have thought that Emperor Xian would overtake Yang Jun, who had grown up by his side since childhood, and Yang Qing, who was excellent in civil and martial arts, and instead chose Yang Feng, the youngest son of a very inconspicuous Dongcheng royal family.

It is said that the newly-promoted His Royal Highness is relatively young among the disciples of the clan, and his stature is also thin. It was against all opinions in the court, and he insisted that the crown prince be placed on his head.

Occasionally, Xu Jiao listened to other people's bad words, and said that it was His Majesty who said that now the Great Wei only needs to have a successful king and a benevolent prince, so that he can sympathize with the people and bring peace to the world.

Xu Jiao didn't know what Emperor Xian was thinking, and neither did others. He heard that there were many disputes in the court, but Emperor Xian insisted on going his own way.

Just at this moment, the Queen Mother was ill.

When Xu Jiao was called by Aunt Hong to the eldest princess's mansion, she saw that the eldest princess's face was sinking like water, and her eyes were filled with anxiety, so she pulled her to her side and whispered, "The queen mother is a little sick, and I'm going to enter the palace. Shiji, you also need to go with me."

Xu Jiao nodded, Aunt Hong had already briefly explained the reason when she went to Jingfu, and Xu Jiao had brought her belongings with her when she came.

The eldest princess and the eldest princess hurriedly boarded the carriage, and the cart wheel moved forward slowly, and the eldest princess said to Xu Jiao in a deep voice, "I don't know what the emperor is thinking. He appointed such a crown prince, and even quarreled with his mother because of him, and forced the mother to be angry." It's..."

The Empress Dowager was actually mad by Emperor Xian!The queen mother is not in good health...

Xu Jiao looked at the eldest princess who pursed her mouth tightly and said nothing, and sighed in her heart, no wonder the eldest princess was dissatisfied.

Arriving at Anfu Palace, the palace was already quiet, Emperor Xian and all the concubines were not there, only the servants and servants who were close friends of the Empress Dowager remained, the rest of the people retreated, the huge bedroom could be heard.

The Eldest Princess summoned the Empress Dowager's most trusted Nanny Chang, and asked in a low voice, "Where are Your Majesty and Empress?"

Nanny Chang glanced at the direction of the bed, and replied softly, "I was here earlier, but I was driven back by the Empress Dowager, and I became angry again. Your Highness will persuade the Empress Dowager for a while, she must not be with herself. My whole body is pissed off."

Nanny Chang's eyes turned red as she spoke.

The eldest princess also showed mourning, and nodded, and Xu Jiao helped her walk to the bed together.

Wang Wan was sitting on the side of the couch wiping the queen mother's forehead, got up and saluted the eldest princess, and Xu Jiao greeted the queen mother. Wang Wan and the two retreated together.

The two of them didn't speak for a moment, and when they got outside the hall, Wang Wan asked softly, "Did you come to the palace with His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess this time?"

Xu Jiao nodded.

"Then you'll have to live in the palace for a while. Then... why don't you live with me, we haven't seen each other for a long time, I have a lot to say to you." Wang Wan took Xu Jiao's hand, A pair of red phoenix eyes looked at her earnestly.

Xu Jiao's heart turned slightly, but she nodded in response, "I will ask my mother first when I turn back."

After hearing this, Wang Wan laughed and held Xu Jiao tighter.

Naturally, the eldest princess has no reason why she shouldn't. With the accident of going back to the forbidden garden last time, the eldest princess is also afraid of this palace city. In the palace, fearing that there might be a bad time, they only told Xu Jiao to be careful when they came here, but now it is better to have Wang Wan taking care of her.

With the permission of the eldest princess, Wang Wan joyfully took Xu Jiao to tidy up the side hall where she lived.

In the next afternoon, I saw the Empress Dowager who came hand in hand, as well as the newly appointed Crown Prince, but the Empress Dowager didn't want to see them, and the Eldest Princess didn't show any face, so she directly kicked them out with a sullen face.

Emperor Xian's complexion was not very good. When he left, his eyes stared at the direction of the Empress Dowager's bedroom with some sullen eyes, and then his eyes swept past Xu Jiao and Wang Wan who were standing aside.

Xu Jiao shrank his heart, lowered his eyes in fear and fear, and even shrank his shoulders.

On the other hand, Wang Wan, who was at the side, was much more generous, showing the rich heritage of a century-old family.

After the empress and the crown prince had left, Xu Jiao stood up straight and let out a long sigh of relief.

Wang Wan smiled and said, "His Royal Highness is really powerful, the entire Great Wei, I am afraid that she is the only one who can shock Your Majesty!"

Xu Jiao's heart skipped a beat, the eldest princess is the elder sister, but Emperor Xian is no longer his former younger brother, how can the king of a country be willing to be treated like this?Didn't you see how ugly Emperor Cai Xian's face was just now?

Wang Wan glanced at Xu Jiao's face, changed the subject, and said in a low voice, "Did you just see our Crown Prince?"

I saw it myself.

"What do you think ... His Majesty thinks?"

Naturally, Xu Jiao didn't know what Emperor Xian was thinking, but when he met the prince just now, the rumors were not exaggerated. Although he was wearing the prince's boa robe, he was still a boy who hadn't grown up, especially compared to Yang Jun and Yang Qing. For those who have grown up, they look childish and thin.And his temper... Xu Zhen is like the benevolence that Emperor Xian said. Xu Jiao noticed that he hadn't said a few words just now, but every time he said a word, he would subconsciously look at Emperor Xian's face.

Because of this thought, Xu Jiao's heart suddenly moved. He was young and obedient... Maybe it was because of this that Emperor Xian liked him?
