Shen Changning looked at Jiang Ci'an, who was kneeling at his feet and crying bitterly. He recalled his former arrogant and aloof appearance, and compared it with his current miserable and decadent appearance...
He felt extremely depressed.
In fact, he also knew that Jiang Ci'an was not feeling much better than him at the moment.
Can……
How could he not blame himself for his sister becoming like this?
When he left Qi, he swore that he would take good care of Changle, and only then did he feel at ease to let him take her away!
But now...
How could he let him go so easily?
"I'll count to three. If you don't move out of the way, I'll raze this general's mansion to the ground! One, two..."
Jiang Ci'an did not move at all, and drew the sword from Shen Changning's waist and presented it with both hands.
“Royal brother, Emperor An was killed. At this time, they will never let me leave Anguo.
If you insist on taking Changle away, I only ask my brother, the emperor, to give me a quick death..."
He actually threatened with his life?
Shen Changning gritted his teeth, his eyes flashing coldly.
"You think I don't dare?"
He held Shen Changle with one hand, and with the other hand he quickly drew out his sword and placed it across Jiang Ci'an's neck.
Jiang Ci'an just glanced at Shen Changle reluctantly, then closed his eyes as if accepting his fate.
"Thank you, my royal brother, for your help."
The sword in Shen Changning's hand was clenched so tightly that it made a humming sound, the sword body trembled, and the tip of the sword shook slightly.
He panted lightly, looked at the stubborn Jiang Ci'an, and raised the sword in his hand fiercely.
Bai Zhi and the others came back with the child. Seeing this scene, they all knelt down and begged for mercy:
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, please think twice!"
"Your Majesty, please forgive the prince consort for the sake of Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
Shen Changning held the sword in his hand and glared at Jiang Ci'an angrily.
He didn't want to kill him!
But he really couldn't do it, just let him go!
While struggling internally, he suddenly heard the baby in Baizhi's arms crying softly, like a cat's meow.
The sword in his hand fell to the ground with a clang.
I couldn't help but look over in the direction of the sound.
When he saw the doll in Baizhi's arms, he was stunned.
This is... Changle's second son?
Why is the crying so weak?
His complexion is so pitiful!
how could this be...
Hearing the sound of the long sword falling to the ground, Jiang Ci'an opened his eyes.
Seeing him stunned, she quietly stood up and took Shen Changle in her arms.
He secretly gave Baizhi a wink.
Bai Zhi understood and hurriedly handed the child to Shen Changning.
explained:
“Your Highness was poisoned during pregnancy and took many medications, which had a significant impact on the young master.
After the little boy was born, the imperial physician and the midwife both said...it would be difficult to raise him."
Shen Changning glanced at Jiang Ci'an who secretly took Shen Changle away, and carefully took the baby in his arms.
I felt soft-hearted again.
How come he is so light and soft?
Compared with the strong Hui'er back then, he is so weak... like a little girl.
Thinking back to the first time I held Changle, she pouted her pink lips and softly grasped my fingers...
Shen Changning's tears blurred his vision.
I felt deeply guilty for not being able to protect my younger sister and for breaking the promise I made to my father...
He gently patted the baby in his arms, raised his misty eyes, and asked Baizhi:
"What treatment method are you using now?"
Bai Zhi glanced at Jiang Ci'an and shook her head slightly.
"General Jiang has consulted many doctors, but they all said that the young master is too young and weak, and there is no way..."
Shen Changning turned around with dissatisfaction and looked at Jiang Ci'an beside the bed, and asked in a deep voice.
"Then it's incurable?"
Jiang Ci'an covered Shen Changle with the quilt, then stood up and answered.
"It's not incurable, it's just..."
He glanced at the doll in Shen Changning's arms from a distance, then lowered his head in disappointment.
"Changle is unconscious, I really don't have the energy to take care of him."
Looking at his depressed look, Shen Changning was so angry that his teeth were itching.
He stepped forward, grabbed his collar, and asked angrily and helplessly, gritting his teeth:
"Then when Changle wakes up and finds out that the child she fought so hard to give birth to has died, how devastated will she be!"
Jiang Ci'an raised his eyelids weakly, and only then did he look at his youngest son seriously for the first time.
It looks so much like Huier when he was a child.
Can……
"Brother, I can't do this..."
Without Changle, he could do nothing.
He just wanted to stay with Changle and wait for her to wake up.
Shen Changning threw him on the table in frustration.
"Jiang Ci'an, can you please act like a man? Do you want Changle to wake up and see you in this state of dejection?
He doesn't even take care of the children, and he doesn't care about state affairs...
If Anguo falls into the hands of others, I wonder if you will still be alive to wait for Changle to wake up!"
Shen Changning's words were like a wake-up call, giving him an epiphany and making him sober up instantly.
yes……
If Anguo continues to decline like this, and someone else takes power...
Then he will be even less able to protect Changle!
He stood up with his eyelids drooping, holding on to the table, exhaled the heavy depression in his chest, and lowered his head.
"My royal brother has taught me this. I will pull myself together, take charge of Anguo, and maintain peace between the two countries."
"Humph!"
Shen Changning snorted angrily.
She patted the child in her arms.
"This child's physical condition is very similar to Changle's when he was a child... Qi's imperial physician is experienced, and I am confident that he can cure his congenital deficiency."
He looked at the little baby who was quietly rubbing his eyes, as if he was looking at the Changle of the past through his little face.
Jiang Ci'an raised his eyes in surprise when he heard this and asked hesitantly:
"Changle's mother is really..."
Shen Changning's expression froze for a moment. He glanced at the maids in the hall and sent the others out.
Holding the child, he sat down.
Looking at Changle lying unconscious on the bed, he sighed heavily.
"This matter is a secret of the Qi royal family. It was only after reading your letter and interrogating the regent that I learned the whole story."
Jiang Ci'an also sat down, poured him a glass of water, and listened to him quietly.
"Back then, my father followed my grandfather's will and ascended the throne, bypassing his legitimate son, Prince Wenxuan, which caused dissatisfaction among many in the court.
Fortunately, my father was a good ruler and gradually won over the civil and military officials. However, Prince Wenxuan was always resentful and was eyeing the throne that he had missed.
He took advantage of his father's devotion to his mother and assigned his wife to poison his pregnant mother.
My mother went mad and died in premature childbirth, and my father followed two years after her.
At first, we all thought that the death of our father and mother was an accident, but after the Regent took over as regency, he found out that all of our mother's palace maids had been killed, and only then did he realize something was wrong.
It was eventually discovered that the palace maids had been bribed by Prince Wenxuan, and the Regent personally ordered the execution of Prince Wenxuan's entire family..."
Jiang Ci'an's eyes flashed with sharpness, and he guessed:
"Prince Wenxuan is Mu Li's father?"
"Ah."
Shen Changning took out the finger that the little baby was holding in his mouth and sighed softly.
"Before my father passed away, he kept his eldest son as a hostage in the palace to prevent Prince Wenxuan from rebelling.
So... he kind of grew up with Changle."
"Humph……"
When mentioning Mu Li, Jiang Ci'an's eyes became more and more filled with resentment.
"If I had known this would happen, I should have killed him too."
Shen Changning also nodded regretfully, as a sign of agreement.
“By the way, the Medicine King Valley incident was also the work of King Wenxuan.
The wife of the King of Medicine was the half-sister of the wife of King Wenxuan. The two had been fighting in the courtyard since they were young and had a bad relationship.
Upon learning that Prince Wenxuan was planning a rebellion, his wife tricked her concubine sister into the palace and used her to test the poison.
When the concubine's sister learned that she had been poisoned, she was unwilling to wait for death in vain.
She escaped from the palace and came all the way to Medicine King Valley to seek medicine, which is how the following events happened..."
