Seeing Jiang Ruan in a daze, the palace lady said: "Vice Jiang has visited you in the future, and left in a hurry after something happened. The empress dowager will be back soon. When the young lady was unconscious, the vice general and the empress dowager were very worried."

Jiang Ruan thought for a while: "Where are my father, mother and sister?"

"The empress dowager has ordered them to go back to the mansion first." The maid replied.

Jiang Ruan lowered her eyes. Didn't the queen mother let Jiang Quan and the others return to the palace because she already disliked Jiang Quan? From this point of view, very good. She smiled slightly, looked at the maid apologetically and said, "I'm a little hungry."

"The meal has been set, and this servant will serve the young lady for dinner." The palace maid laughed.

...

In the imperial study room, the emperor slammed the paperweight on the table on the ground: "So, you were from the Tianjin Kingdom last night?"

Guan Lianghan and Xiao Shao acquiesced.

The Tianjin Kingdom is located in the north of the Great Jin Dynasty, and its territory is not vast. Because it is close to the sea, the overseas business is doing very well. It has always been a non-aggression relationship with Da Jinchao. It's not that the Jin Dynasty has never thought of annexing the Tianjin Kingdom, but although the Tianjin Kingdom has a small area, its weapon smelting is very good, and the weapons worn by the soldiers are much more sophisticated than the Dajin Dynasty. The first emperor once tried to attack the Tianjin Kingdom, but the Tianjin Kingdom resisted the Jin Dynasty's 400,000 troops. The war dragged on for a whole year, until the Jin Dynasty was short of troops, and the people were deprived of their livelihoods because of excessive taxes. In a situation where both sides were hurting, they ordered the withdrawal of troops. Since then, the well water has not violated the river water, and they have been living in peace.

But last night Xiao Shao and Guan Lianghan interrogated overnight. Although these dead men have been very firm, they still revealed something wrong in their words. Xiao Shao ordered Jin Yiwei to investigate, and what he found out was that these assassins were all from the Tianjin Kingdom.

"How dare you be so presumptuous in such a tiny place!" The emperor was furious.

Last night, the assassin's moves were all about attacking the emperor, but in the end they started killing in the palace, causing panic among all the officials. What is this kind of behavior if it is not provocation? What does Tianjin Kingdom mean? Want to start a war against Jin Chao?

"The Tianjin Kingdom has been causing trouble on the frontier for the past few years, ready to move." Xiao Shao reminded: "This assassination is likely to be a signal."

"Signal for war?" Guan Lianghan asked.

"I'm afraid he won't succeed!" No emperor could tolerate such a presumptuous provocation, and the dignity of the royal family cannot be trampled on, let alone this is a major matter related to the safety of the country. He frowned: "General Guan, are you willing to lead troops to conquer Tianjin?"

Guan Lianghan smiled: "I am very happy."

He didn't want to stay in the capital of Laoshizi at all. He faced these educated people every day. He returned to Beijing after winning the battle this year. He was already very displeased when the emperor said that he would stay in Beijing for the elderly in the future. Soldiers are born for the battlefield, especially Guan Lianghan can only display his maximum ability on the battlefield.

The emperor thought for a while: "Take your lieutenant general too. If he is a natural born general and comes back from a victorious battle, I will reward him with great rewards!"

Guan Lianghan's face turned serious. The emperor's words really gave Jiang Xinzhi room for growth. He thought that Jiang Xinzhi's refutation of Concubine Chen's face would make the emperor more or less prejudiced against Jiang Xinzhi. Now that Jiang Xinzhi's brothers and sisters have just got together, they have given Jiang Xinzhi another chance to go to war. If he shines in this battle, then there will be another young hero in the Dajin Dynasty, and Jiang Xinzhi can truly be in the court. Stand firm among them.

I just don't know if that girl lover will be willing to leave Jiang Ruan?

The emperor said again: "There were so many assassins in the palace last night, and the guards were all dead?" He looked at Xiao Shao: "Xiao Shao, call out your Jin Yiwei."

This is the big cleansing. The assassins of the Jin Dynasty entered the palace as if they were in an uninhabited land. I am afraid that there is already an internal response in the palace. Although they don't know who that person is, they will not get rid of it for a day, and it will grow on the emperor's heart like a cancer for a long time.

Xiao Shao nodded slightly: "Yes."

Guan Lianghan sighed in his heart, this palace is bound to be another bloodbath.

After the two discussed other matters with the emperor, as soon as Fang came out of the imperial study, he saw a beautiful young girl standing outside. She was dressed in a golden gauze dress, her costume was gorgeous and exquisite, and her well-dressed face was glamorous and compelling, with a touch of exotic atmosphere. She walked over gracefully, smiled at Xiao Shao, "Prince Xiao." It was Princess Heyi.

Guan Lianghan winked at Xiao Shao, then strode away.

Xiao Shao looked down at He Yi from a high position, without any warmth in his eyes. Princess Heyi's heart skipped a beat when he saw his cold eyes, and she was a little timid. But when she thought about what happened last night, her eyes showed some resentment again, she raised her head to look directly at Xiao Shao's handsome and cold face, and said, "What is the relationship between Prince Xiao and Miss Jiang?"

The question was inexplicable, Xiao Shao didn't know what she meant, frowned, and said coldly: "What does this have to do with the princess?"

Princess Heyi's eyes were red, and his whole body was chilled by his cold words, and she said wronged: "You know that I like you."

"The Princess is careful." Xiao Shao's eyes suddenly turned cold: "Xiao has nothing to do with the Princess."

"What about Jiang Ruan?" Princess He Yi couldn't help asking sharply, "Do you like her?"

Xiao Shao frowned even tighter, unable to understand her words, but there were more important matters at the moment, so she just gave Princess He Yi a cold look, turned and left. In the eyes of Princess Heyi, such a move is a default. She was stunned for a moment, then suddenly covered her face and burst into tears.

...

After Jiang Ruan had breakfast, the Empress Dowager Yide returned to the Palace of Compassion and Ning. Seeing her like this, she asked, "How are you?"

Jiang Ruan smiled: "If you go back to the Queen Mother, it will be much better."

Empress Dowager Yide looked her up and down, and saw that her spirit was indeed much better than yesterday. Relieved, she sat down on the soft couch, and the maid next to her brought a cup of tea. Empress Dowager Yide took a sip of the tea, and looked at Jiang Ruan calmly.

The girl in front of her is well-behaved and clean. Although her appearance is naturally charming, her eyes are clear and free from impurities. The most rare thing is her calmness, which makes her beauty lose its frivolity and become calm and soft.

She seemed to ask casually: "Jiang Quan treats you badly?"

Jiang Ruan seemed to be taken aback by this question, thought for a while, and smiled: "No, it's just that the minister's daughter was raised on Zhuangzi, and she was not very close to her father since she was a child."

She didn't keep complaining, and she didn't lie that Jiang Quan treated her very well. What she stated was indeed the truth, but she justified Jiang Quan in her words. It is very appropriate.

A faint smile appeared on the lips of the Empress Dowager Yide: "I'm not close, so I wouldn't be sad if I want to separate."

Jiang Ruan was really stunned and looked at her suspiciously.

Empress Dowager Yide looked at the ruby ​​on her armor and said, "Girl Jiang, Ai's family is going to stay in the Royal Ancestral Temple next to the imperial mausoleum for three years, would you like to go together?"

Jiang Ruan looked at the professional Empress Dowager Yide with a smile, and there was a huge wave in her heart.
