CH 45.2

On the crown prince's side, one wave of ups and downs, another wave of ups and downs, he just destroyed the rice seed, but was implicated one after another. The empress also didn't expect that when she deliberately let people only let out the news about Jiang Jinyue's idea, but she still couldn't pick herself up.

Those women of the right age who were about to be selected into the palace, and those who were locked in the prison and didn't know when they would be released, were all afraid.

And all of this was in the hands of one person, it depended on whether he insisted on going his own way, or suddenly woke up one day and restored the clarity of this messy situation.

"Aren't you worried?" Zhou Chengwang asked Jiang Lin and poked him with his elbow.

After Wei Yunzhao was arrested, Jiang Lin came out to drink with them and listen to the show like a normal person. Zhou Chengwang felt that Wei Yunzhao was worthless. Jiang Lin's behavior seemed too heartless, and Wei Yunzhao became a little pitiful in his heart.

Jiang Lin held the wine jar, squinted his eyes and smiled, "It's a good time for him to be locked up, and I don't need to pretend to be in love with him everyday. It's great that I can come out to drink with you and have fun."

Zhou Chengwang's expression was indescribable. “You’re all married, so why are you still acting like a flirtatious person, you can't change it."

"I thought you were a little different before," the tone was full of disappointment.

Du Yuling rolled his eyes at him, and asked, "Are you a fool?"

Zhou Chengwang was upset, and stretched out his hand to pinch him, "Du Yuling, I'll give you a chance to take back what you just said, or I'll strangle you to death!"

Du Yuling patted his hand away "When did Wei Yunzhao restrict him from going out before? Besides, if he really wants to come out, Wei Yunzhao may not be able to stop him. It’s obvious that he covets Wei Yunzhao's beauty and insists on clinging to other so he refuses to come out. Now that Wei Yunzhao is in prison, he can't see anyone, so he thinks of us two brothers, do you think he is a good person?"

Jiang Lin: "..."

He didn't know for a while if he should thank him for his pertinence, for evaluation he should still praise that there was no one better than Du Yuling.

He was also very curious, "You said that he had been in the border for so many years, exposed to the wind and the sun. Yeah, why is he still so good-looking?"

Zhou Chengwang touched his face, he really couldn't understand that he, a noble son who grew up in Shengjing, couldn't compare to Wei Yunzhao.

Jiang Lin thought for a while and said, "Maybe he has been so good-looking since he was born," and he won at the starting line.

"So what's your plan now, really leave Wei Yunzhao alone?" Du Yuling asked Jiang Lin only after Zhou Chengwang finished messing around.

Jiang Lin shook his head, "Wait for a while, the ones who are arrested are all court officials, and they won't suffer much when there is no evidence."

Du Yuling was a little more serious, and called Jiang Lin's name directly, "Jiang Lin, What are you waiting for?"

Jiang Lin replied, "Wait for an opportunity, it will be soon."

_______________________________________________________________________

July 14th, on the night of the Ghost Festival, Emperor Changde, who was blessed with two beauties, suddenly fell into a coma, and hadn't woken up the whole night.

When Jiang Lin heard the news, he was carrying food and was going to see Wei Yunzhao in the prison, when he bumped into Zhou Chengwang who came to deliver the news to him at the door.

Jiang Lin took advantage of the opportunity to get into his carriage, "Tell me carefully, what's going on?"

Zhou Chengwang shook his head, "I don't know much, my father only said that the emperor is in coma, and it seems to have something to do with those two beauties. So they will kill those two beauties for the crime of murdering the emperor."

Emperor Changde launched a tug-of-war with the ministers, he wanted to choose the concubine, but because of the recent accidents in Shengjing, the ministers refused to agree, and no one would compromise. Because of this, the government affairs were delayed, coupled with the rumors among the people, Emperor Changde was forced to compromise, postponed the date of the concubine selection, and changed the age from fifteen to eighteen years old.

After the new imperial decree was released, there had been no large numbers of ants and insects on Shengjing, which further proved that what happened before was a warning given by the heaven because the heaven was dissatisfied with his choice of concubine. Doting on those two young beauties, although not to the point where the king didn’t go to the morning court, he had begun to be lazy in governing.

Emperor Changde also protested against the courtiers' opposition to his concubine selection.

The officials who were imprisoned in the prison were not released. Emperor Changde firmly believed that someone was obstructing his way, and it had nothing to do with the warning from heaven. It was useless to persuade anyone, so the matter was delayed.

Then it dragged on until now, nearly half a month.

Jiang Lin took out a piece of jerky from the food box and chewed it. He smiled, "Of course the empress wants them to die, because she is the one who offered those beauties to the emperor. If something happens to the emperor because of these two beauties, she won't be able to escape."

But the empress couldn’t kill the two little girls because there were too many people who disagreed.

This was the best handle against the empress and the crown prince.

Zhou Chengwang stared at the jerky that Jiang Lin was eating, and said dissatisfiedly, "Is that how you treat the benefactor who sent you the news?"

Jiang Lin took out a piece of jerky for him, and as soon as the jerky was in his mouth, Zhou Chengwang became greedy , "One is not enough, at least ten, otherwise I won't send you any news in the future."

Jiang Lin patted his outstretched hand away, "What a dream, I made this for Wei Yunzhao."

Zhou Chengwang snorted, he said, "Since Wei Yunzhao is your man, I won't rob him, but you have to find a way to get him out, or..."
