Jealous? Jealous of what?

For a moment, Xiao Jingzheng didn't understand what his mother meant by saying this.

He looked at Zhu Yue in confusion: "Mother, it's father who is jealous, not me."

"You and your son are the same. Before, I was shot by an arrow for Huan'er, and you were angry for a long time. Now I have blocked it for you too, so we are even. You should not be angry anymore, right?" Zhu Yue stretched out her hand and gently touched Xiao Jingzheng's cheek.

Although the child has grown up now, Zhu Yue always feels soft-hearted when facing this child. This is her first child and the child she has poured all her efforts into. She really loves him so much.

After hearing this, Xiao Jingzheng's tears fell: "I'm not jealous, I don't want to be even like this, I just want my mother to be fine, mother, you scared me to death!"

Seeing his tearful appearance, Zhu Yue smiled gently and then said directly: "It's just a superficial wound. You see, I'm fine now. The doctor also said that I'm fine."

After comforting a few children, Zhu Yue was exhausted and lay down on the bed. After a while, she fell into a deep sleep again.

Seeing Zhu Yue's exhausted look, Qin Yan felt distressed: "You three, you should be more obedient and sensible. Don't do anything rash, don't make your mother worry!"

"Father, if I'm not mistaken, you were the one who made mother worry the most just now. Mother just woke up, and you kept asking about Yan and Yan. Mother is exhausted by you." Xiao Yunlan's face was full of dissatisfaction.

Although she knew that this was her father, she still felt somewhat dissatisfied. After all, anyone who made her mother unhappy was a bad person!

Qin Yan really didn't expect that his little tricks could be seen through by her?

For a moment, Qin Yan, as a father, was a little embarrassed. His face turned red and he said in a low voice: "I... I was just asking casually."

His words could certainly fool the child in the past, but now that the child has grown up, it is obviously not easy to fool him.

The three brothers and sisters looked at each other, and no one said anything. But after exchanging glances, everyone understood that Qin Yan was simply a childish guy who said one thing and meant another!

Three full days had passed, so the people in the post station were now ready to make a move, especially the other princes who were full of complaints.

Everyone came to find Lin Yao, wanting to talk to him about this matter.

"Prince Pingxi, you are the most senior among us princes. What is the meaning of the emperor locking us up here?"

Prince Heng looked at Lin Yao anxiously.

Lin Yao looked at him and said calmly, "How can I understand what the emperor means? I only know that if the emperor orders his subjects to die, they must die. So we must stay here and listen to the emperor and obey the emperor, right?"

Although this is what they said, they are all powerful characters who can divide the land and become kings. Who can be willing to be locked up here and be guarded by so many people? What's the difference between this and caged animals!

"What if the Emperor really wants to kill us?"

Prince Heng was really anxious now. Everyone knew that the emperor was obsessed with reducing the power of the princes. If they were really reduced in power, they would have no military power and would not be able to protect themselves.

"If the ruler orders his subjects to die, they must die. Didn't I make this clear?"

"If the emperor wants me to die, I will die."

Lin Yao spoke directly without any politeness or hesitation.

After hearing this, Prince Heng was completely speechless. In the end, he could only grit his teeth and swallow his anger.

Seeing his useless appearance, Lin Yao was disgusted: "Although the emperor is young, he is proficient in both civil and military strategies. He has been the emperor for so many years and has governed the country. The people live and work in peace and contentment, so we should naturally obey our emperor."

Although King Heng also knew that what he said made sense, but...

Prince Heng looked at Lin Yao helplessly and whispered, "Your Majesty, do you really trust the Emperor so much? Are you really not afraid of death?"

"If it's for the sake of the world and the people, I'm not afraid to die." Lin Yao spoke again.

If only by killing him can the people live and work in peace, then he would be willing to do so even if he really died.

King Heng looked at Lin Yao in disbelief, as if he had just met him today. Mainly, King Heng never expected that such words would come out of Lin Yao's mouth. It was simply unbelievable!

He took a deep breath and then said sullenly, "My Lord, I know what you said makes sense. The Emperor is good in every way except that he has a bad temper!"

"Look, he is ruthless to his own relatives, let alone us? Let alone you and me!" As King Heng spoke, tears almost fell from his eyes.

Looking at his pitiful appearance, Lin Yao felt helpless for a while but finally smiled and said nothing.

Soon, Zhu Yue's health got much better. She didn't take the things of the previous dynasty to heart. Xiao Jingzheng had grown up, and Qin Yan had recovered his memory. After the two of them discussed it, they felt that there should be a proper solution to whatever happened.

Zhu Yue now just eats and sleeps, and lives a very carefree life. She even gained a lot of weight by lying in bed.

Xie Ru looked at her heartless appearance and was a little worried: "Those princes are already very dissatisfied with the emperor now. Will they do something they shouldn't do?"

"No matter if they are dissatisfied with the emperor or not, they will do something excessive. Reducing the power of the princes is a contest, a life-and-death struggle, isn't it?" Zhu Yue looked at Xie Ru seriously and smiled gently at her.

Xie Ru really didn't expect that Zhu Yue's attitude towards this matter would be like this?

She thought for a moment, then tentatively asked, "Mother, do you have any ideas that you haven't told me?"

"I really have no idea. The late emperor is here now. There is nothing we need to worry about. They'd better cooperate. Otherwise, it will be a disaster." Zhu Yue knows her man and son very well.

She always felt that the paranoia of her children came from Qin Yan.

This guy looks harmless, but in fact he is a black-bellied bastard. There is basically nothing he can't do as long as he wants to!

Thinking of this, Zhu Yue felt helpless again. Whenever she thought of Qin Yan's problems, she felt her head buzzing. If it weren't for the many things happening outside, they wouldn't have been able to take care of her at all. She would be the one having the hardest time right now.

When Zhu Yue thought of this, she felt a headache. She looked at Xie Ru and asked in a low voice, "What are we having for lunch?"
