Chapter 294: The Curtain Ends
After meeting in Hairpin Pavilion, there was something different between Zheng Ji and Du Fengju.
This change is most obviously felt by those close to them.
Li Xing'en clearly felt that His Highness's mood was always high. When he was in the mansion, there was always a smile on his face.
He didn't know why, but seeing her like this made him happy from the bottom of his heart.
He took out the brocade handkerchief, wiped Zheng Ji's fingers carefully, and said, "Your Highness, there is news from the palace that His Highness the Third Prince will be sent to Shannan Road tomorrow."
Li Xingen also knew a lot about the fights between His Highness and the Third Highness, especially those involving the Jiang family.
Now that the Third Highness has lost power, it is definitely not a bad thing for His Highness!
"Yeah." Zheng Ji nodded, feeling helpless at Li Xing'en's excitement.
Okay, he was right in thinking that something happened to Brother Three Emperors. Although it was not her fault behind it, it did not harm her.
It even allowed her to identify the prince behind her, which was a benefit.
It was really hard for her to feel any sadness towards Zheng Xun.
"Hey, I really didn't expect that the Third Highness would end up like this." Li Xing'en was still talking.
Zheng Ji couldn't help but sigh in his heart after hearing this.
Zheng Xun was taken to Shannan Road, which meant that his family, including Zhou Meiren, and the Zhou family were expelled from the competition for the throne.
Unless there was some huge accident, it would be impossible for Zheng Xun to ascend to that position.
She thought for a moment and then ordered: "You go ahead and make arrangements, and then I will go see him off."
"Yes, Your Highness." Li Xing'en responded.
The third prince lost power, but His Highness was still there to see him off. Among the royal brothers and sisters, His Highness was the one who cared about his old relationship the most.
Zheng Ji glanced at Li Xing'en and knew that he was completely wrong, but did not warn him.
It's also good that Li Xing'en is getting older and has more beautiful fantasies.
She went to see Zheng Xun off not because of any brother-sister relationship, but because she wanted to see him in a state of desolation so as to warn herself.
Furthermore, Zheng Xun revealed those two things to her, which was of great help to her. She went to see him off, and the Fengchen Guard soldiers did not dare to embarrass him too much, which was considered a reward.
Qin Zhou had already found Gu's mother's grandson and got a list from him. This was the clue Zheng Xun revealed to her.
This list is the result of many years of accumulation by Zheng Xun and the Zhou family. It contains officials they believe the prince has secretly trained and who should have close contacts with the prince.
Zheng Ji had already read the list and found that several of the officials did later join the prince, but the authenticity needed to be carefully screened.
The list has been sent to the Jiang family, and a copy was also given to Fengju. We have to see what its use will be later.
Judging from this list, the people in Zheng Xun's line are quite capable, but it's a pity...
Against the prince, he was eliminated so early.
This shows that the prince knows his abilities better...
On that day, Zheng Ji went to wait outside Prince Yi's Mansion in advance, accompanied by nearly a thousand soldiers.
The moment she appeared, the Fengchen Guard soldiers guarding Prince Yi's Mansion were all stunned.
There are so many Chang Ding rate soldiers with great momentum, and their posture... no matter how you look at it, they look like they are here to rob someone.
Of course Fengchenwei is not afraid of long-term success, but this situation really makes people feel up and down.
His Highness Chang Ding doesn’t have such courage, does he?
It’s hard to say, but His Highness Chang Ding is really so courageous!
Later, they realized that His Highness Changding was not here to rob people, but to give them away!
Bringing so many fully armed Chang Ding rate soldiers is obviously for the purpose of intimidation and to support His Highness the Third Prince!
Ah, this...
The Fengchen Guard soldiers were in extremely complicated moods for a moment. The third prince had already lost power, but His Highness Changding still came to escort him. This shows that the royal family still has some family ties.
Even the deputy general Zhu Yi, who was hiding in the dark, was like this. He stared at the frame guarded by Chang Ding's soldiers in the center and felt that
Puzzled.
His Highness Chang Ding's actions are always unexpected and unpredictable.
As far as he knew from his investigation, His Highness the Third Highness and His Highness Chang Ding had no special dealings, and there might even have been conflicts and hostilities that he had not found out yet. In short, there would be no royal feelings.
But His Highness Changding just came to see me off and put on such a posture.
What did His Highness Chang Ding want? He couldn't help but feel a little curious.
Zheng Ji in the carriage naturally didn't know that someone was watching her all the time. She pretended to be asleep, thinking about what would happen to the court after Zheng Xun left.
Until there was a sound outside the carriage, she suddenly opened her eyes.
"Your Highness." Qin Zhou immediately reported, "The Third Highness has come out."
When Zheng Xun saw Zheng Ji and the Wu Yang Ding led soldiers behind him, he was stunned.
After a while, he said: "Changding...you are determined."
He was placed under house arrest, his mother and concubine were demoted, the Zhou family was investigated, and everyone pushed the wall down. People who had contact with them in the past could stay as far away as possible for fear of being affected.
Only Chang Ding, the imperial sister whom he had always treated as a pawn, came to give her a gift.
How could he not know why she brought so many long-term soldiers?
"Brother Three Emperors, take care on your way here. You can come back after your father calms down." Zheng Ji said calmly.
Zheng Xun smiled, nodded and said, "Then I'll go and visit Shannan Road. Shannan Road has mountains and water, which is also very good."
Poor mountains and harsh rivers are both mountains and rivers. Zheng Xun's words really sound like a playboy playing in the world.
Sometimes if you act too much, even if it is fake, it will become a bit real without even realizing it.
Zheng Ji didn't talk to him. She really didn't have anything to say to Zheng Xun. She just came to see Zheng Xun off.
They didn't have a chance to say anything. Soon, the allotted time came and Fengchen Guards escorted Zheng Xun away.
It wasn't until Zheng Xun's carriage disappeared from sight that Zheng Ji got on the carriage and ordered: "I will go into the palace and the rest of the soldiers will return home."
The mother-in-law asked Qian Gu to send a message last night, asking her to come to the palace when she had time to discuss matters.
The mother-in-law's affairs are important matters. Not to mention that she does have some free time today. Even if something happens, she will come to the palace.
But she didn't expect that she would meet Zhou Meiren in her mother's concubine's Fuqing Palace.
Zhou Meiren, formerly Zhou Shufei, was Zheng Xun’s biological mother.
Why is Zhou Meiren in the palace of the mother-in-law? The "something happened" mentioned by the mother-in-law could not mean Zhou Meiren's arrival, right?
Meiren Zhou comes from a scholarly family, and she is said to be full of poetry and calligraphy. She has an elegant and extraordinary temperament. Even if she looks haggard, she can't hide her bookish air.
When she saw Zheng Ji, she immediately stood up and said respectfully, "I have met His Highness Changding."
Zheng Ji responded calmly, but was very alert in his heart.
She would never underestimate this concubine who could become one of the four concubines and who could rely on Empress Xue after Zheng Xun was exiled in her previous life.
