Chapter 1114: Jiang Zhennan Has a Son
Translator: Lonelytree
In the study of the imperial palace, Emperor Yuwen Longyan opened a piece of paper and laughed loudly.
Eunuch Zhang, who was beside him, immediately laughed. ” Your Majesty, what’s the matter that makes you so happy?
The Emperor casually said, ” Jiang Zhennan has a son!
Bang!
The sound of the horsetail whisks in Eunuch Zhang’s hand falling to the ground.
“Mother, bad news, bad news!” Jiang Zhenye had just returned from drinking outside and hurriedly went to his mother.
Wen Yujing looked at Jiang Zhenye’s panicked expression and was immediately shocked. She quickly asked, ” Ye ‘Er, what’s wrong? What’s not good?”
Jiang Zhenye panted and said, “Mother, there are rumors outside that Jiang Zhennan, that bast … He has a son!” He didn’t dare to call Jiang Zhennan a bastard anymore
That was because once he cursed, his mouth would stink for ten days.
Everyone would treat him like a plague and not dare to approach him.
He had thought that the woman was just joking. Later, he scolded Jiang Zhennan behind his back once. In the end, as soon as he finished scolding him, his mouth began to stink. It was even worse than the first time. He could not stand the smell.
When Wen Yujing heard Jiang Zhenye’s words, she dropped her weapon on the ground without realizing it. She subconsciously widened her eyes and asked in disbelief, ” Ye ‘Er, is what you said true? Where did you hear that from?”
Jiang Zhenye said, ” Mother, I’m really serious. This was what Qiu Shaolin said. He said that his aunt told his father, and he heard it!”
Qiu Shaolin’s aunt was one of the four concubines of the current Emperor, Consort Qiu Xian.
Therefore, her words were very reliable.
Jiang Zhenye added, ” Jiang Zhennan has a son. She heard about it from His
Majesty.”
When Wen Yujing heard this news, she was extremely shocked.
She instantly felt a little flustered.
Jiang Yunfeng didn’t like Jiang Zhennan, so even if he had children, he wouldn’t like his son.
Wen Yujing understood Jiang Yunfeng very well, so she was not very worried.
However, the Jiang family did not have many children. Therefore, regardless of whether Jiang Zhennan was disliked by the Jiang family, one thing was certain: they valued his children very much. Even Jiang Zhennan’s son would definitely be attached to great importance.
This was a big threat to Wen Yujing and Jiang Zhenye.
Previously, even if Jiang Zhennan could threaten Jiang Zhenye to inherit the Duke’s estate and become the Duke, as long as Jiang Zhennan did not get married and had no children, in the end, not only the Duke’s estate, even the Duke’s General’s estate would fall into Jiang Zhenye’s hands.
However, the situation was different now.
Jiang Zhennan suddenly had a son, and this son was even recognized by the Emperor. This undoubtedly told them that Jiang Zhennan had a successor, and the Duke’s estate would definitely be inherited by Jiang Zhennan and his descendants.
How could this be?
Wen Yujing clenched her fists tightly, and a hint of determination flashed in her eyes. It seemed that only by agreeing to that person could she and her son have a stable position in the Duke’s House.
“Miss, this is bad, this is bad!” Xiao Cui came back from outside in a panic. When she found Zhou Wenya, she immediately started shouting.
Zhou Wenya was dressed in white and was practicing her calligraphy in her room. When she heard Xiao Cui’s voice, she berated her, ” Why are you making such a big fuss? What’s wrong with you?
Xiao Cui immediately lowered her head and apologized. ” Eldest Miss, I was wrong!
However, she immediately looked up at Zhou Wenya and said anxiously,
Miss, this is bad. Now, there are rumors that General Jiang has a son!”
Zhou Wenya’s hand that was writing suddenly stopped. Her eyes were filled with disbelief. The brush fell to the ground, and the ink on the brush stained her white dress without her knowing it.
She widened her eyes, and her expression was stiff. She asked in a daze, “You… What did you say?
Xiao Cui said, ” There’s a rumor going around that the Great General already has a son!
She was very indignant and thought that Jiang Zhennan really did not know what was good for him. Her Miss liked him so much, so he should be thankful. However, when Miss went to look for him, he chased her out. Now, he even had a son.
He was clearly humiliating her Miss.
Because of this, Xiao Cui was angry and distressed.
If Lin Yuelan were here, she would definitely mock them after knowing their thoughts. ” What a whore!
On one side, she wanted to be the empress. On the other side, she wanted Jiang Zhennan.
Zhou Wenya seemed to have suffered a serious blow. She muttered, ” How is that possible? How did he have a son? Could it be the son of that woman?” No, she couldn’t let that woman snatch him away. Even if he had a son, he could just disappear.
“I’m the only woman in Jiang Zhennan’s heart!” The two hands that were placed under her thighs were tightly clutching her flesh as if she did not feel any pain.
When Xiao Cui heard this, she did not persuade Zhou Wenya to give up.
Instead, she went forward and asked, Miss, what do you plan to do? ‘
Zhou Wenya’s gaze suddenly became sharp. She looked at Xiao Cui and asked, Xiao Cui, did that person find any clues about that thing? Xiao Cui shook her head. ” Not yet, Miss. However,”
As she said this, she looked at Zhou Wenya hesitantly.
Zhou Wenya frowned and asked, ” Is there anything wrong?
Xiao Cui reported truthfully, ” Miss, it’s very difficult to find that thing here, so he wants to make a trip to the southern border. However, in terms of fees, he …” If he made too much of a commotion, it would definitely cause unnecessary trouble.
When Zhou Wenya heard this, she immediately said decisively, ” Tell him not to worry. He will definitely be rewarded. ‘
When Xiao Cui heard this, she immediately said, ” Yes, Miss!
After Xiao Cui left, Zhou Wenya’s eyes were filled with a strong desire to tear her apart. She said, ” Jiang Zhennan, you forced me. Don’t blame me!”
…
Zhou Zhenlin asked for the third time, ” Hong ‘er, you haven’t gotten that thing yet?
Zhou Dehong lowered his head and answered respectfully, I ‘ Father, that thing is a forbidden drug on the southern border. It’s even harder to find it in our country. It’s really difficult to get it!”
Zhou Zhenlin listened to Zhou Dehong’s report and immediately frowned slightly. He was a little dissatisfied.
“However, Father, don’t worry. I’ve already asked the people of Yama Pavilion to do this!” Zhou Dehong immediately added.
Yama Pavilion was an assassin organization that merged with the intelligence organization and was on par with the Ghost Face Pavilion.
Zhou Zhenlin’s eyes widened, and he said angrily, “ Each order from Yama Pavilion costs at least 30,000 taels. How much did you spend to hire Yama
Pavilion? The Zhou family doesn’t have that much money.”
Although the Zhou family had power, they weren’t very rich. It was just that there weren’t many people in the Zhou family who had business acumen. Therefore, the main source of money was the maintenance of a few shops and some officials who fawned over the Zhou family.
Asking them to fork out 30,000 taels at once was not a lot of money, but it was not very useful. Therefore, Zhou Zhenlin was a little dissatisfied with this.
Zhou Dehong cursed in his heart, ‘Stingy! Don’t you know that if you don’t take risks, you won’t get the reward?’
Of course, he didn’t dare to curse out loud. On the surface, he was very terrified and respectful as he said, ” Father, don’t worry. This money didn’t go through the public account. It was all taken out of my private treasury.
When Zhou Zhenlin heard this, his furrowed brows finally relaxed. He stroked his white beard and nodded in satisfaction. ” Mm, not bad!
Qing Feng City, Yansha Pavilion Branch
The masked man sat lazily and impatiently on a high spot. He questioned his subordinate and said lazily, ” Tell me, what’s the matter? ‘
A masked man in black who was kneeling below the stage reported, ” Cult Master, recently, several forces in the capital have been inquiring about a type of medicine called ‘Divine Illusion’.”
When the masked man heard this, he asked in confusion, ” What kind of medicine is this?”
The subordinate reported, ” I hear that this medicine can control people. It was said that after taking this medicine, one would feel like a god. One would feel as if they were floating and happy. However, once the medicine is cut off, it’s like entering the eighteenth level of hell. No matter how strong a person is, they can’t withstand it!”
The Masked Religious Leader immediately became interested. ” Oh, there’s such a thing?
However, what he was more interested in now was, i ‘ Who in the capital is asking about this thing?
“Zhou Dehong and his daughter Zhou Wenya from the Zhou Family, Wen Yujing from the Duke’s estate, and one from the palace!”
The Masked Religious Leader was amused. i ‘ Both the father and daughter of the Zhou family are asking about this. How interesting!
Then, he ordered, Since you’ve accepted the order, then ask around. I still want to know who these people are trying to control by getting these things.”
“Yes, Cult Master!”
