Chapter 472 Daddy, won’t you live with us?
Chapter 472 Daddy, won’t you live with us?
Jiang Yixuan said with an irritated look: "If they really let the two of them get married, then I won't have a chance."
Although there are still many princes in the royal family, his real opponent, apart from the crown prince, is Jiang Dichen.
The prince is weak and childless, so he is not worthy of fear.
Not only does Jiang Dichen command a large number of troops, he also has a son and a daughter. In addition, because his father favors him, the throne will most likely be passed on to him.
The more Jiang Yixiuan thought about it, the more anxious he became. He clenched his fists and swore to himself: No, that position can only be mine, and anyone who stands in my way will be killed!
After Jiang Yixuan made up his mind, he said to his subordinates, "Come here, prepare to travel from Lan County and try to capture Jiang Dichen before he returns to Beijing."
"Yes, master." After receiving the order, Li Lan quickly turned around to arrange the itinerary.
In this way, Jiang Dichen and his companions were constantly hunted by various assassins along the way. They stopped and started many times, and after twenty-three days, they finally arrived in the capital.
Because Jiang Dichen was sent out of the capital secretly, no one except the royal family knew about it. When he returned to the capital with his wife and children in a high-profile manner, everyone was stunned.
The first person to come back to his senses looked at Shen Ruolan in front of Jiang Dichen and said in surprise: "Oh, the person in front of the prince is the Concubine Lan from back then?"
"Concubine Lan is so beautiful. No wonder the prince went to welcome her back personally."
"Wow, what cute twins! Are they the prince's children?"
"Oh my god, he brought so many things with him. Could it be that they are all the dowry that Concubine Lan prepared for him?"
Wherever Jiang Dichen went on horseback, there were cries of exclamations.
Shen Zeyi, who was riding on Yan Mo's horse, listened to everyone's discussions. He suddenly smiled sweetly and shouted to his parents in front of him, "Dad, Mom, wait for me."
After he finished speaking, he used his little hands to pat the horse under him, making a few "Gee, gee, gee" sounds, and then chased after his parents.
When Xiao An He saw her brother riding away on his horse, she was not willing to be left behind on Ye Bing's horse and said, "Daddy, Mommy, brother, wait for me."
After saying that, she also imitated her brother and patted the horse and followed.
Jiang Dichen heard the two children calling him. He turned around to look at the brother and sister and said with a smile, "Zheyi, Anhe, if you want to catch up with Daddy, you have to speed up."
After he finished speaking, he patted the horse lightly with his legs, and with a "go" sound, he left in a good mood.
Passersby who were originally suspicious of the identities of Shen Ruolan and her son, after hearing the conversation between Jiang Dichen and his son, instantly understood Shen Ruolan's identity. At the same time, they were also very happy for Jiang Dichen to have two such lovely children.
However, while some people are happy about Jiang Dichen having a child, others are naturally worried.
For example, she was previously married to the third daughter of Shangshu Jiang Dichen, Liu Meizhao.
At this moment, she happened to be in a silver shop and witnessed with her own eyes the scene of Jiang Dichen returning with a woman and a child, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
Seeing this, the girl next to her kindly comforted her, "Sister Zhao, don't be too sad. No matter who the prince brings back, you are the principal wife. Don't you have the final say?"
After hearing the comfort from her little sister, Liu Meizhao took a deep breath and said to her little sister, "Well, I understand."
After she finished speaking, she said to her little sister, "Zi Fu, let's stop here today. I'll treat you to tea later when I'm free."
Li Zifu could understand Liu Meizhao's feelings. After hearing what she said, she responded to her generously: "Well, Sister Zhao, please go back soon. We will meet again later."
After she finished speaking, she glanced in the direction where Jiang Dichen left, then left with her maid.
Liu Meizhao hurried back home and found her mother crying, "Mom, I don't want to marry Prince Han. Please let my dad go and explain it to the emperor."
After she finished speaking, she covered her mouth and started crying sadly.
Madam Liu saw her daughter, who had always been well-educated and well-mannered, suddenly saying something extremely treasonous. She quickly scolded her, "Zhao Zhao, be careful with your words!"
After saying this, she sighed to her daughter and said earnestly, "Zhao Zhao, the emperor's order cannot be disobeyed. Marrying Prince Han is a done deal. Don't say such nonsense again in the future."
After hearing what her mother said, Liu Meizhao looked at her and cried, "Mom, but Prince Han has already brought a woman and a child with him. From his expression, we can tell that he loves that woman and the child very much. How can there be a place for my daughter in Prince Han's mansion in the future?"
Liu Meizhao knew very well that she was not favored by King Han. If she married him, he would definitely not be friendly to her. One could imagine how her life would be like then.
Liu Meizhao's words shocked Madam Liu. It took her a long time to find her voice. She asked her daughter in disbelief, "Zhaozhao, is what you just said true? Prince Han..."
Liu Meizhao nodded to his mother with certainty, "Mom, it's absolutely true!"
Madam Liu was instantly discouraged after hearing her daughter's words. She paced back and forth in the room in silence for a long time. Suddenly, she stopped and said to her daughter, "Zhao Zhao, let's wait and see how Prince Han arranges the matter of the woman and the child. If he goes too far, we will ask the emperor to make the decision for us."
Liu Meizhao nodded to his mother and said, "Okay."
On the street, Jiang Dichen and his sons chased each other and soon arrived at the gate of the villa he had purchased in advance. He stopped his horse with a "whoosh" and said to Shen Ruolan, "Ruolan, this villa is only about a quarter of an hour away from Prince Han's Palace if you go straight to the right. If you have anything, you can come to the palace to find me directly."
After he finished speaking, he picked up Shen Ruolan and jumped off the horse swiftly.
Shen Zeyi followed behind and heard what his father said. He looked at his father with a puzzled look and asked, "Dad, don't you live with us?"
Jiang Dichen put Shen Ruolan down, walked to his son's side, hugged him and said, "I would like to live with you, but your mother doesn't want to."
Jiang Dichen originally wanted Shen Ruolan to live directly in Prince Han's Mansion, but she was unwilling. He had no choice but to wait until the wedding day and carry her in on a sedan chair carried by eight people.
"Daddy, let me hug you too." Shen Anhe, who came last, saw her father hugging her brother, so she quickly opened her little hands and shouted.
Jiang Dichen put his son down, opened his arms and waited for his daughter with a smile, "Okay, An He, come here quickly."
Ye Bing rode her horse to Jiang Dichen. She stopped the horse with a "whoa" and little An He was picked up by Jiang Dichen.
Little Anhe was held in his father's arms and giggled excitedly. He looked so happy.
Shen Ruolan looked at her daughter's cheerful appearance and couldn't help but feel better. She took her son's hand and said, "Zheyi, let's go into the house."
