Chapter 405 I Want My Son
He Zhiyuan has not yet found a suitable person to be placed in Prince Chen's Palace. The secret guard he sent to Yong Dynasty to rescue He Jingyao brought him a piece of news that made him angry.
He had already agreed to the conditions of the new emperor of Yong Dynasty and sent people to kill Feng Chuanjin in exchange for He Jingyao.
But he always made preparations for both situations, and also arranged for secret guards to rescue He Jingyao.
After making sure that He Jingyao had been sent out of Kyoto City, his men had been guarding him secretly, ready to rescue him as soon as they reached the border.
As long as He Jingyao is not in Feng Chuankai's hands, he will not be threatened.
"Sir, everything was going smoothly. We had already contacted the young master. When we were preparing to rescue him, another group of people suddenly appeared. They came with great momentum and were more familiar with the terrain of the northern border of Yong Dynasty."
"We chased for a while and then lost track..."
He Zhiyuan's forehead was bulging with veins. "So, you didn't save the young master?"
The secret guard lowered his head and said, "Sir, it is my fault that I am useless."
"Was he rescued by people from the Yong Dynasty?" He Zhiyuan suppressed the anger in his heart.
"Your Excellency, I feel that... it is unlikely that they were sent by the Emperor of Yong Dynasty. After the young master was kidnapped, they searched for him for several days."
Since it wasn't his people who rescued He Jingyao, nor was it the new emperor of Yong Dynasty, then who could it be?
He Zhiyuan suddenly thought of another most likely person.
King Chen!
"Did they leave any information when they kidnapped the young master?" He Zhiyuan asked.
Secret guard: "No."
He Zhiyuan closed his eyes and said, "Go down first and find someone to keep an eye on Prince Chen's Mansion."
"Yes."
Not long after the secret guard left, the maid came to report to He Zhiyuan that Madam He had a high fever and had called a doctor, but she had not gotten better after taking the medicine.
He Zhiyuan knew that her psychological depression was caused by her worry about Jingyao.
"I gonna go see."
Madam He had a nightmare last night. She dreamed that her son was torn into pieces by five horses by the Emperor of the Yong Dynasty and his body was finally thrown into a mass grave.
The son cried and shouted in pain, asking her to save him.
She cried her heart out in her dream.
He Zhiyuan came to visit her. Seeing that she looked pale and haggard, and had lost a lot of weight, he said in a deep voice, "I will bring Jingyao back."
"Where is he then?"
"It's been so long. Aren't you the Prime Minister? Don't you treat Jingyao as your son? Why haven't you rescued him yet?"
Madam He's voice was weak and hoarse. She forced herself to sit up and said, "Sir, I am willing to exchange my life for Jing Yao."
"What's the point of taking your life? Stop messing around." He Zhiyuan frowned.
Two lines of tears fell from the corners of Madam He's eyes, "I want my son, you give my son back to me."
"We live here. You have your ambitions, but we are orphans and widows, and we just want to live a safe life."
When He Zhiyuan heard this, anger welled up in his eyes, "Don't think that just because you gave birth to Jingyao, you can dominate his life. His last name is He."
"He is my son!" Mrs. He glared at him hatefully.
"You're just his uncle."
He Zhiyuan took a deep breath and said, "You are ill. Please ask the imperial physician to treat you well."
He turned and left, standing under the corridor looking ahead with a grim expression, and no one knew what he was thinking.
"Madam, your body is your own. You must take care of yourself. The young master will need you when he comes back." The maid advised her beside the bed.
Will her son ever come back?
Madam He thought of Princess Chen. She felt that Princess Chen knew Jing Yao's whereabouts.
He Zhiyuan didn't treat her as his sister-in-law at all. Instead, he locked her up in the mansion like a canary. For so many years, she knew almost nothing about the outside world except what happened in the mansion.
She hasn't even seen her sister in years.
No, she has to get better quickly.
She has to find a way to save her son herself.
……
He Jingyao had indeed fallen into Fu Jinyuan's hands.
When Shen Sui'an heard the news, the corners of his mouth curled up.
"We had someone send him back secretly, which was like finding He Zhiyuan's weak spot." Fu Jinyuan said.
"I want to use He Jingyao to find out the secret between Madam He and Concubine Liu." Ever since he knew that these two were twin sisters, Shen Sui'an felt that there must be a secret between them.
Moreover, it is definitely not easy for He Zhiyuan to hide this secret for so many years and prevent Madam He and Concubine Liu from meeting.
Fu Jinyuan asked, "How do you want to test it?"
This is also where Shen Sui'an is in a dilemma. Concubine Liu has not come out of the palace, and it is not easy to bring Madam He into the palace.
"Tell me, does Concubine Liu know that Madam He is her sister?" Shen Sui'an asked in a low voice.
“Maybe he doesn’t know.” Fu Jinyuan said.
"There will be a spring hunt in a few days. Concubine Liu will definitely accompany the emperor to the hunting grounds. If we can bring Madam He to Concubine Liu at that time, perhaps we can get the answer."
Shen Sui'an's eyes lit up, "I'll try my best."
"My uncle has arranged a spy in the He Mansion, but he has never been used in all these years because he is afraid of being discovered." This was told to her by the Queen.
If necessary, she can still borrow this eyeliner.
She also asked someone to inquire about the servants who had served Mr. He in the past. If they could be found, maybe they could find out whose son He Jingyao was.
……
The northern border of Yong Dynasty, the Zhenbei Palace.
Feng Chuanjin looked coldly at the dozen or so corpses lying in the courtyard.
“Your Highness, in addition to the secret guards from the Southern Dynasty, these few are from Kyoto City.” The deputy general pointed to the corpses lying at the outermost edge.
If the prince had not taken timely precautions, many people would have been injured today.
"You haven't even sat down to take that seat in the palace yet, and you're already so impatient."
When Feng Chuanjin received Fu Jinyuan's secret letter, she thought that he might be worrying too much. Feng Chuankai was not just so stupid.
I didn't expect it to be so stupid.
"Prepare to recruit soldiers. I feel that the peaceful days of the Yong Dynasty are coming to an end." Feng Chuanjin said lightly.
Feng Chuankai is so intolerant that I'm afraid he will be eager to seize other military powers.
He really thinks everyone else is a fool.
The deputy general asked, "Your Majesty, will the emperor order someone to kill Prince Chengxuan and Empress Dowager Shouci?"
"The Empress Dowager is still in the palace, he doesn't dare." Feng Chuanjin said lightly.
He turned back to the study and wrote a letter to the deputy general, "Find a smart person to deliver the secret letter to the Zhennan Palace and give it to the prince. Remember, give it to the prince."
The deputy general took the secret letter with both hands, "Yes, Your Majesty."
"Deal with the bodies." Feng Chuanjin said.
The northern border is now his fiefdom. In addition to recruiting new soldiers, he also has to raise money to buy war horses.
After all, this place is not rich enough. Apart from mountain products and medicinal herbs, the only business that can be done is some leather.
If King Chengxuan were older, he would still be willing to cooperate.
Pity.
"Send someone to the palace to deliver a message to the Empress Dowager, and tell her that the Emperor wants to kill me." Prince Zhenbei called his confidant and gave the order.
