Chapter 648 The Emperor is a Wise Ruler
At this time, A Chong stared at Zhao Jin intently when he heard this. He remembered that when he was a child, he had always lived with farmers. It was Aunt Zhao who came to see him from time to time and brought him delicious food and even new clothes. She told him that she was his biological aunt and he was just fostered in a farmer's home.
When he grew up, he stayed by Aunt Zhao's side. He dared to call her aunt only in private, and in public he could only call her Aunt Zhao, but in his heart, Aunt Zhao was like his own mother.
"Mom." Ah Chong suddenly shouted.
Zhao Jin's heart trembled, and the tears in the corners of his eyes could not help but burst out, "What did you call me?"
Killers cannot have emotions or family affection, and they cannot have soft tendencies.
She works hard for others just to make money, for...
Ah Chong continued, "My name is Zhao Chong. My aunt told me this when I was a child. My adoptive parents were not kind to me. They just wanted your money. But I feel that Aunt Zhao is my mother."
Jiang Fenghua said to Lin Feng, "Let them stay alone for a while, let's go out first!"
She took the initiative to leave the meditation room, and Xie Shang and Jiang Jinyan followed her out.
Lin Feng closed the door himself, ready to listen from the corner for a while, but he only heard Zhao Jin's voice crying bitterly. He was shocked. They were really mother and son. How did the Queen know that they were mother and son?
Outside the door, the cold wind whistled, blowing up the dead leaves on the ground and making a rustling sound. The monks in the temple chanted scriptures in a low voice, and the Sanskrit sounds were like waves.
Xie Shang walked towards Jiang Fenghua, "It's late, go and have some rest, and we will take care of the rest."
Jiang Fenghua glanced inside the door and said, "Zhao Jin may know the answer the emperor wants. If they haven't done anything harmful to the world, spare their lives. After a woman becomes a mother, her heart will become fragile."
Xie Shang nodded slightly, "Not all of the Su family's lackeys were killed. Some escaped, and some were captured and enslaved. If they were just bewitched by the Su family, I will make the final decision."
Just as Jiang Fenghua was about to leave, Xie Shang suddenly stepped forward and hugged her, "Ruan Ruan, I can sense that you are unhappy. Their deaths have nothing to do with you."
Jiang Fenghua smiled and said, "I know, Your Majesty, don't worry about me. It is your duty to find the antidote as soon as possible to benefit the people."
She quietly let Helan Yanran go without telling Xie Shang. Xie Shang didn't like her. He thought that letting a woman stay in the palace for her whole life just to control the court was the greatest torture for her.
Xie Shang thought she would care about him and Su Tingwan, but she didn't think she took it to heart. "Ruan Ruan, having you by my side is my blessing, and it is the blessing of the people of our Great Zhou. The world is full of holes, and we need the emperor and empress to repair it together. Are you willing to accompany me, Ruan Ruan?"
Jiang Fenghua pushed him away. The haze in her eyes had long been hidden by her. Her eyes were bright and she smiled. "Why don't I want to? The emperor asked me to be the queen, but I didn't want to. What else can I do? I'm not stupid."
"Ever since we returned to the palace, bad things have been happening one after another. Nothing has gone well. I am even wondering if it is really like the rumors in Qingzhou. Is this a punishment from God? Is it because I am not doing a good enough job as an emperor?" He sighed, and then said, "I went out for a trip. Although I went to find you, I also traveled to many places to understand the people's sentiments. This world is really devastated. You can't see its sadness with your naked eyes. I always have to work hard to see it clearly.
I thought I had worked hard enough, but in fact it was far from enough. There is too much darkness in places that the eyes cannot see. I want to clear the fog and illuminate those places, but I am alone..."
Jiang Fenghua held his hand and said seriously, "With Ruan Ruan accompanying the emperor, the emperor is not alone. One day, the world ruled by the emperor will no longer be foggy. As long as the emperor does not let his eyes be covered, they will not be able to cover the emperor's eyes. The emperor is a wise ruler."
She added, "I will not leave the emperor either. As a mother, a mother has a responsibility that is more important than a father. I want to stay with the children and watch their father lead the people to live and work in peace and contentment, so that the country and the people can live in peace and prosperity."
Xie Shang had always been worried that Jiang Fenghua would care about the concubines in the harem and the past events that Su Qingqing talked about. He said, "Ruan Ruan, you are the only woman I truly love."
"I understand. Your Majesty, don't let other concubines hear what you said, otherwise I will be hated." She already felt that everyone had deep hostility towards her.
Xie Shang paused, Jiang Fenghua smiled slightly, and walked towards the main hall holding Nanny Wang's hand.
Jiang Jinyan walked up to Xie Shang somewhat uncomfortably, "Your Majesty."
Xie Shang said in a deep voice, "What do you mean by Ruan Ruan? I was worried, but now I don't have to worry at all. She accepts me and the concubines in the harem."
Jiang Jinyan naturally knew what his sister was thinking. What was the point of caring about her? Could she make a fuss, quarrel, or lose her temper? Why bother taking useless things to heart and making himself suffer?
He said: "The most important thing now is to find the antidote to cure the people. What is the purpose of the person who helped Su Qingqing behind the scenes? Does the Empress Dowager know about this person's existence?"
Xie Shang said, "Since he is a high-ranking official, there will always be a way to find out."
-
On the other side, Shang Hong also waited on the side. When Jiang Fenghua approached, he bowed respectfully and said, "I thank the Queen."
Jiang Fenghua said, "I hope I have done the right thing, and Lord Shang should not let me down."
After saying that, she didn't say anything more to Shang Hong and went straight back to the main hall. When everyone saw her coming back, they all bowed to her.
Jiang Fenghua glanced at the concubines and said in a deep voice: "We will return to the palace early tomorrow morning. Everyone should go back to the wing room to rest. What happened today made everyone worried. With the Imperial Guards and the Imperial Guards guarding us, things like what happened during the day will not happen again. Don't worry!"
She added, "Madame Wang, go and make the arrangements!"
"Your Majesty, aren't you going to rest?" Gao Qingtong asked with concern, "Your Majesty must have been scared today too!"
Jiang Fenghua knew that she and Gao Qingtong got along well and were close before she lost her memory, so she smiled and said, "Let me go with Concubine Gao!"
After hearing this, Song Jing also came to join in the fun, "Your Highness is here with me. I was really scared today. Fortunately, Your Highness is back safely. It's really the Bodhisattva's blessing."
Nanny Wang was also worried all day. Although she knew the inside story, she was still very worried. Concubine Lan left the palace in this way. She wondered if she would regret her choice today.
Nanny Wang is always suspicious of men. After Concubine Lan leaves the palace without an identity, her life will become even more difficult.
Just as everyone left, Aoxue suddenly appeared in the corridor and looked at Jiang Fenghua's back. Before the queen's carriage fell off the cliff, she saw clearly that a masked man in black escaped from the carriage. That man was Concubine Lan.
