Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge

After the morning court session ended, the emperor was very angry, but he still did not forget to say that he wanted to have breakfast with Concubine Yu.

When he was about to go to Yuchen Palace with Eunuch Chengping, his attention was attracted by Yan Nangui who was not far away.

"Chengping, go and call Yan Nangui over to me. I have something to ask him." The emperor stopped and thought for a while, then asked Chengping to go and call him over.

Cheng Ping nodded immediately, walked over quickly, and said to Yan Nangui with a smile on his face, "Master Yan, please follow me. The emperor wants to see you."

Yan Nangui turned around and saw the emperor sitting on the imperial sedan chair, waiting for him to come over not far away.

There was no wave in his heart, and he nodded to Eunuch Chengping, "Eunuch, please lead the way."

Eunuch Chengping smiled at him, then lowered his voice and said to him, "Concubine Yu was diagnosed with pregnancy today, and it just so happens that something like this happened. It is understandable that the emperor is upset."

Yan Nangui was shocked after hearing this, but he did not pause for a moment. He coughed lightly and said, "I understand."

Yupin was actually pregnant at this time, the timing was too coincidental.

"I am Yan Nangui, your humble servant, and I am honored to meet the emperor." Yan Nangui walked closer and greeted the emperor politely.

"Well, get up, but what's the matter?" The emperor didn't want to exchange pleasantries with him, so he asked straight to the point.

"Yes." Yan Nangui also answered briefly, then took out a letter from his sleeve, handed it to Eunuch Chengping with both hands, and he passed it to the emperor.

"This is what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked me to pass on to the Emperor."

The emperor looked at Yan Nangui twice again before taking the envelope from Eunuch Cheng Ping's hand and opening it with a "click".

Just as he was about to reach in to take the letter, he heard Yan Nangui raise his voice and say, "Your Majesty, I will take my leave."

"Go, go, give my regards to your father." The emperor waved his hand and let him leave.

Yan Nangui agreed, nodded to Eunuch Chengping, and then turned and left.

"Cheng Ping saw that Yan Nangui is exactly like his old man. He never smiles all day long. He is really rigid."

Eunuch Chengping nodded repeatedly, "Your Majesty is right."

The emperor opened the envelope on his palanquin and took out a thin piece of paper. There were only a few simple words on it.

"I have heard that the orders of the emperor and father are more important than Mount Tai. Now I am following the order of the emperor to go out of the palace to handle the affairs of the people. I dare not disobey. In a few days, I will do my duty to relieve the people's worries. After the work is done, I will return to the palace immediately and report to Your Majesty to show my loyalty and filial piety.

During my stay abroad, I will be careful with my words and actions, and will not dare to damage the royal dignity. I will also always remember the teachings of the Sunnah, and will not dare to forget them.

I hope Your Majesty will not worry about me, take care of your health, and comfort the hearts of the people of the world."

What...what is this? The emperor opened his eyes wide and read the contents of the letter again.

Then he held the letter in his hand and fell silent for a while.

Was Li Junhao protesting against his attitude? Was he blaming himself for not giving Prince An the proper punishment after what happened in Xiangyang City and at his mother's birthday banquet? Was he protesting?

I can't blame myself entirely for this, alas.

"Stop, go back to the imperial study." The emperor could see the gate of Yuchen Palace right away, but he told them to turn around and walk back.

Eunuch Chengping's eyes flickered slightly, but he nodded quickly, "Yes."

Then he brought a few young eunuchs and carried the imperial sedan chair and turned around again.

"Send someone to tell Concubine Yu," the emperor rubbed his brows and said tiredly, "Just say that I have an urgent report to deal with, and I will go to see her later when I have time."

"Yes." Eunuch Chengping answered in a calm tone, waved to a young eunuch following behind him, and after saying a few brief words, he followed the emperor back to the imperial study.

"Check two things for me," the emperor asked as he entered the imperial study. He dismissed all the servants and only left Eunuch Chengping.

"One is to see if Xie Ziming, the leader of the Imperial Guard, has done anything unusual recently. The other is to see where the news about the Crown Prince leaving the palace that he heard today came from."

Eunuch Chengping's face lost its usual calmness and became serious. He bent his waist and listened to the instructions, "Yes, I will do it right away."

He left, and the emperor was the only one left in the huge imperial study. He raised his head and looked around. On several thick pillars, there were giant dragons circling. He used to yearn for this place so much, but now it felt like a cage, trapping him so tightly that he couldn't breathe.

In fact, he had always known about the incident in Xiangyang City. It was his third son who was behind the incident. His purpose was to destroy the reputation of the prince and pave the way for his future plans.

Jian Liangce was recommended by the prince, so he was used as a knife against the prince.

Unfortunately, they did not succeed and were instead countered by the prince.

In addition, Wang Zhuo was certainly involved in the incident at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet. Could Li Junze just stay out of it? The Queen Mother hadn't fully recovered yet, so how could he face Concubine Yu and her son normally?

Now, the prince had already told him in advance that Jian Liangce had already arrived in the capital with witnesses, but had not yet entered the palace to see the emperor. He must have been fishing in the capital.

What happened last night must have been planned by the prince. Fortunately, things did not get out of control. However, there were people in the palace who wanted to throw the dirty water on the prince.

Unlike the emperor who knew the truth, Wang Yuyan in Yuchen Palace angrily threw a bone china vase with two handles to the ground, making a loud shattering sound, which scared the maids who were serving on the side and made them kneel on the ground.

Aunt Qi Meng hurried forward to comfort her, but it was useless. She could only whisper, "Your Highness, we are in the palace now, you can't be too willful."

Wang Yuyan was still angry, but he waved his hand and asked the maids to clean up the fragments and leave quickly so as not to get in his way.

"The emperor said he would come here to have breakfast with me, but he went back halfway. Is there anything more urgent than my pregnancy?" Wang Yuyan's tone was still full of grievance, and her eyes were a little red after she finished speaking.

She had put in so much effort and taken such a big risk to get the emperor to pay attention to her again, but she didn't expect that he would only come to see her once and then start to ignore her again.

Being a member of the royal family, I never expected that the emperor would be so ruthless.
