After rebirth, the concubine counterattacked and became a royal concubine

When Emperor Jing saw the look in Doctor Zhao's eyes, the fingers on his knees immediately relaxed. He looked at the eldest princess with a hint of helplessness on his face and said:

"Anan, nothing is as important as your body. If something needs to be done, just let him go."

Emperor Jing's meaningful words immediately made the eldest princess stunned for a moment, and she couldn't help but feel a little shaken.

Can those pains really go away?

These older princesses have asked themselves this question countless times in their hearts, but they have never received a definite answer.

Time cannot erase everything. No matter how long it takes, she will remember some pain clearly.

Emperor Jing looked at the eldest princess's lack of reply, and a trace of worry appeared in his brows, and he spoke softly again:

"Ah Nan?"

The eldest princess finally came back to her senses. When she saw the worried look on Emperor Jing's face, her suspicion and confusion became a little more serious. A slightly stiff smile appeared at the corner of her mouth and she nodded in agreement.

Emperor Jing saw that she was no longer as stubborn as before, and then he waved his hand with relief to indicate that Dr. Zhao could leave.

The palace banquet officially began.

The strange feeling lingered in Bai Zhaoyi's heart. The eldest princess's reaction just now was really strange. Even the way she looked at Emperor Jing was different from the last time she entered the palace to plead guilty.

Emperor Jing first exchanged greetings with the ministers, and then asked several of the older people in their families whether their health was okay, and then his eyes inadvertently fell on the family of Prince Wencheng.

King Wencheng naturally noticed Emperor Jing's gaze, picked up the wine glass on the table, toasted to Emperor Jing with a smile, and said a few auspicious words, then stood up, saluted and stated his purpose:

"Your Majesty, I have something to ask for, please ask your Majesty's permission."

Emperor Jing raised his eyebrows, his guard rising silently, but he asked with a calm smile on his face:

"Oh? My dear, if you have anything to do, it doesn't matter."

The banquet suddenly became quiet, and everyone's eyes and attention fell on the two of them. I don't know what King Wencheng is doing?

"Back to Your Majesty, I have been feeling unwell recently and feel unable to do anything most of the time. I think it's due to old illnesses from earlier years, so I would like to ask Your Majesty's permission to resign from my official position and take the princess to the south. Take good care of yourself.”

As soon as King Wen Cheng finished speaking, the banquet exploded. Everyone looked at me and I looked at you. Although they didn't say a word, the exchanges in their eyes and the shock on their faces were all revealed.

King Wencheng actually wants to resign and leave Beijing?

Emperor Jing was also shocked by his choice. He thought for a moment and then said with a smile: "Ai Qing is only 40 years old now. You are in your prime and have made great military exploits for our country, Jing. You are my right-hand man and my most loyal minister. Since you can just ask an imperial doctor to take a look at you if you feel unwell, why should you resign?"

Emperor Jing smiled and dealt with him. What he said was that he was unwilling to let him go. How could he safely let King Wencheng leave from under his nose?

By then, when the mountains are high and the water is far away, wouldn’t their family be as high as the sky and let the birds fly?

If he had the intention to rebel, Emperor Jing would be beyond his reach.

King Wencheng and Princess Wencheng naturally understood Emperor Jing's concerns, but if they did not resign and leave Beijing, there would be endless troubles.

Princess Jing'an had an excellent reputation among the people, and so did King Wencheng.

Although Bai Zhaoyi was given an imperial edict by His Majesty to allow her the freedom to marry because she saved the eldest princess, if Princess Jing'an were to marry into Prince Wencheng's palace, it would definitely push Prince Wencheng's palace to the forefront again.

By then, Emperor Jing may no longer be able to suppress his fear of the palace, and he is afraid that sooner or later he will attack them.

The best way is to let Emperor Jing agree to the marriage on his own, rather than relying on the princess's will.

King Wencheng pretended to be depressed and sighed: "Wei Chen knows his health well. He has drank a lot of various bitter medicines over the years but has not seen any improvement at all. Now his two children have grown up, and A'que also has a son." The person you like, so Weichen can safely take the princess to find a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters to spend the rest of her life."

King Wencheng looked very sad when he said this and raised his hand to wipe the tears on his face. As the saying goes, a man will not shed tears easily, let alone a general who once galloped on the battlefield?

Emperor Jing couldn't help but feel a little moved when he saw his appearance, but he didn't let go of his guard.

"Oh? Prince Rong An actually already has a girl he likes? I just don't know which family's daughter is here. Today happens to be New Year's Eve and everything is perfect. If I tell you, I can save this happy event."

Emperor Jing smiled and spoke, but did not pick up the topic of King Wencheng's intention to resign and leave the capital. Instead, a pair of sharp and appraising eyes fell on Jiang Que.

After the incident at Yuanshan last time, Emperor Jing discovered that Jiang Que had perfectly inherited his father's strengths and was a rare talent.

It's just a pity that Emperor Jing didn't dare to entrust such a talent to an important position because of his father.

It would be fine if he was not the son of King Wencheng.

Jiang Que bowed to Emperor Jing in a neither humble nor overbearing manner but did not reply. Instead, King Wencheng continued to reply with a smile:

"Your Majesty, it is Princess Jing'an. Quan Zi went to Bai Mansion once when he was a child. At that time, he fell in love with Princess Jing'an and swore that he would not marry anyone other than Princess Jing'an in his life. However, the princess was still young and had not yet grown hair. I have been suppressing it all the time and refused to reveal anything about it, until a few days ago Aning invited the princess to come to the house to appreciate the plum blossoms, and then he leaked the news to us. "

After saying this, King Wencheng glared at his son kneeling behind with some annoyance, as if complaining that he had kept the matter secret for so long.

Emperor Jing and everyone present looked in the direction of Princess Jing'an in surprise.

But the girl just sat there quietly with gentle eyebrows. Her stunning face looked even more delicate against the bright red palace dress, like a blooming peony.

Delicate and luxurious.

Hearing King Wen Cheng's words, she just smiled lightly, without any shy look on her face. There was a slight smile in her eyes, which added a bit of gentleness and tranquility to her.

Several ladies below were already unable to sit still. They had long been interested in Princess Jing'an and came to propose marriage as soon as she was old enough. However, today, King Wencheng's family got there first.

The ladies clutched the handkerchiefs tightly and looked at Emperor Jing nervously, praying in their hearts that Princess Jing'an did not like Crown Prince Rong An and declined the marriage.

But when their eyes fell on Crown Prince Rong An, who was also dressed in gorgeous clothes, they began to question their own thoughts. If they were Princess Jing'an, could they really refuse such an outstanding young man?

Apparently it was hard for them to say no.
