She was born in a family of scholars and ministers. Her mother and grandmother were also prime ministers. Before the current empress came to power, her position as prime minister was very stable.

But she knew very well that the position of prime minister in the family bloodline would end with her, because she only had one son, but she didn't think it was a big deal. She felt that this position might be passed on to her students, or she might follow the arrangement of the empress.

However, before her son got married, she needed to consider his current situation. If she had nothing, even if she had a little face, what would it be useful for others? It would not be very useful for others, and it would also affect whether the child could choose a husband's family.

But if Wan Ge was sure that she only wanted her child, and they were in love and had to be together, then what would it matter if she didn't take the position of prime minister.

He had actually long wanted to live a restless life. If it weren't for the child, she would have retired and returned home soon after the empress came to power.

“In that case, please wait patiently, mother-in-law.” Wan Ge bowed to her respectfully. She knew very well that Prime Minister Jiang really loved Jiang Zixi.

Prime Minister Jiang sighed deeply: “Your Majesty is not easy to deal with. Are you sure there is no problem?”

“Don’t worry, mother-in-law. I will protect Zixi from worry for the rest of his life and will not let him suffer any grievances.” Wan Ge said with great certainty.

Prime Minister Jiang looked at her confident look, and there was a thought in his mind that he didn't want to admit: "You won't do anything, will you?"

Wan Ge looked at her reaction and knew that she was overthinking: "I know that my mother-in-law's family has been loyal for generations. Don't worry, I will not tarnish the Jiang family's reputation."

Prime Minister Jiang sighed again: "There are only me and Zixi left in the Jiang family now. I don't care about whether it is tarnished or not. I am just worried that you will do something stupid and implicate Zixi."

"Don't worry, mother-in-law, I don't have that idea, and I won't do such a thing, but there is definitely no problem with being with Zixi. Just wait for the news."

"Okay, then I will wait for good news." Prime Minister Jiang shook his head and left.

That afternoon, Prime Minister Jiang heard the news that Wan Ge entered the palace.

After asking the person who reported the news, "You said that the prince went there by himself."

"Yes, sir."

Prime Minister Jiang breathed a sigh of relief. She was so scared that she thought that the Empress knew about their meeting. But she took the initiative to find the Empress. Would it be for their engagement?

It was impossible for her to ask directly, but she should be sure of what Wan Ge said to her today.

Prime Minister Jiang felt uneasy, but it was such a day. Wan Ge finished talking to her in the morning, went to the palace in the afternoon, and the imperial edict for marriage arrived in the evening.

Jiang Zixi looked at her mother blankly, but still knelt on the ground with her to receive the imperial edict.

The female official announced the edict in a loud voice: [By the will of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims. The legitimate son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, who is both talented and virtuous, is a good match for the late prince. The marriage is hereby granted to the two of them. The marriage will take place after the late prince returns triumphantly. 】

The female official looked at Jiang Zixi in front of her and said, "Young Master Jiang, please accept the decree."

Jiang Zixi's fingertips trembled slightly as he accepted the imperial decree, but his face was a little more shocked.

Jiang Zixi was about to speak, but the prime minister beside him held his hand and shook his head at him.

After the female official left, Jiang Zixi looked at his mother anxiously: "What should I do? Why did the empress suddenly let the prince go to the battlefield? Is she..."

Is she doing it on purpose? She deliberately let her lover go to the battlefield and wanted her to die on the battlefield.

Prime Minister Jiang said, "This is very likely the condition of the exchange between the prince and His Majesty."

She asked the female official just now and learned that Wan Ge was going to the north. The north was facing their problem, Jiangrong Country, and the Jiangrong people were particularly warlike.

Jiangrong Country was not in a good location. It would be particularly dry when it was dry, and floods would occur when it rained. The conditions were more difficult than theirs, so they would violate their borders whenever they had something to do.

The empresses of all dynasties were a little distressed about this matter. But they are good at fighting, and fighting like this is likely to result in both sides being hurt, and it has not been resolved for so many years.

I heard that the Rong Kingdom has become more and more arrogant recently. The empress looked very bad and has been trying to solve this problem. If nothing unexpected happened, Wan Ge should have taken the initiative to stop trying to solve this problem, in exchange for such an imperial decree to grant marriage.

Jiang Zixi's hands hanging by his side silently clenched into fists: "I harmed the prince."

"What nonsense are you talking about, silly child? It has nothing to do with you. This is what the prince wants." And she is veryIt is clear that Wan Ge will not let the power in her hands be taken away this time, otherwise she will not be able to protect herself and the people she loves.

"If it weren't for me, the prince wouldn't..." However, if the empress wanted to attack his prince on the battlefield, it would not be an easy thing. Jiang Zixi would never allow anyone to hurt his wife, even the empress.

"Okay, don't think about it."

"Mother, I want to see the prince." Jiang Zixi looked up at his mother.

Prime Minister Jiang nodded: "The prince will leave tomorrow, you can go and see her off."

The marriage decree came down and the two resumed their relationship as an engaged couple. It was reasonable for Jiang Zixi to see him off.

"No, I want to go now." Jiang Zixi's eyes were particularly serious.

"Go, go." Prime Minister Jiang knew that it was not appropriate to go to Wan Ge's house at this time, but she still agreed.

Maybe her son really had something important to tell her. She didn't want to stop him, and she knew that if she stopped him now, he would take the opportunity to go later.

It would be better to let him go openly: "Just come back early."

Jiang Zixi bowed obediently, then went back to his room first, and finally put on his hat and went out with his servant.

Wan Ge had just finished bathing when she heard about Jiang Zixi's story.

Wan Ge asked everyone else to leave, looked at Jiang Zixi in front of her, and said affectionately: "Zixi, why are you here so late?"

Jiang Zixi took out a token from her sleeve: "This is for you."

Wan Ge looked at the token in her hand and found that it was the token of a well-known bank. As the first bank, the owner behind the scenes must be the richest man.

However, no one knew who the owner behind the scenes was. Even when the empress wanted to find him to discuss cooperation with him, the other party only asked the second in command to come out.

At first, the empress was a little angry, but later she found that they were not only a bank, but also infiltrated in all aspects.
