Chapter 483
Zhuang Miao and Kang Lian both understood, yet the two of them had not a single complaint.
They are one family; when one prospers, all prosper; when one suffers, all suffer.
When they reached that point, they hoped even more for a way out, and the second son's external posting was that way out.
In the study, four people sat on the stools.
"Now Ning Jing is in chaos, how is His Majesty's health?" Kang Mengxian looked at his granddaughter, seeing her return safe and sound, his earlier worries finally eased a bit.
However, Ning Jing is now a place of right and wrong; coming back now may not necessarily be a good thing.
He has been poisoned for three years; halfway through, Zi Wei suppressed it once, but this time a single guiding agent triggered the suppressed poison directly.
The poison has been cleared, but his health is far from what it was before and needs careful nurturing." Jiang Yunchu hid nothing.
If even the Kang Clan cannot be trusted, then in this Da Ning, she doesn't know who to believe.
Kang Mengxian nodded, "Then I've caused you hardship."
"Now the Imperial City Office is controlled by that side; unless His Majesty's token is used, no one can mobilize."
Although Palace Guard Fang Zi Lun is highly capable and has always guarded His Majesty's side, there are too few of them to watch over the entire Imperial Palace.
His Majesty's clarity is of utmost importance.
Kang Mengxian then spoke of some of the current situation in Ning Jing, as well as some of the situation inside the Palace; the further back, the less information there was from inside the Palace.
But regarding the situation in Ning Jing, he never let it go.
"Tomorrow I will enter the palace; His Majesty has already regained consciousness." Jiang Yunchu nodded and smiled lightly.
Kang Mengxian's eyes lit up, then he nodded, "Good, good."
"Then we could do this..." Kang Lian looked at his father and gradually laid out his idea.
Continue pretending to be poisoned?
Jiang Yunchu's eyes narrowed, which coincidentally matched his own thought, but he had always thought his maternal uncle was a kind person, never expecting...
Hmm...
Indeed, one cannot judge only by appearances.
"Please enter the vat." Kang Lian's eyes narrowed, and a gleam flashed within.
Jiang Yunchu and Ning Chengyan exchanged a glance; they had previously made arrangements, but they hadn't expected that their ideas would coincide with the maternal uncle's.
"I and Yun chu have discussed this, and this is also the method."
Moreover, only Consort Cao is causing trouble now; taking advantage of this imperial elder brother's poisoning, we can capture some people who have not yet revealed themselves.
Ning Chengyan held the tea cup, dressed all in black, his face bearing a hint of coldness.
He commands troops like a god; how could he not know the twists and turns of the court? It's just that he has disliked such things since childhood.
Jiang Yunchu nodded, set down the tea cup, "Now His Majesty's poison has been resolved; all plans will need the imperial decree."
But everything comes second to the imperial person.
Beside His Majesty, Palace Guard Fang Zi Lun has always been on duty; Consort Cao can still manage a distant glance, but getting close is difficult.
Moreover, Eunuch Xi is loyal, always staying by the emperor's maternal uncle's side; others finding it hard to get close as well.
Naturally, the imperial person is the foundation of the state; everything takes Your Majesty's person as paramount." Kang Mengxian nodded, stroking his already whitening beard; seeing the Regent Prince and Yun chu's expressions, they finally felt relieved.
The Kang Clan came this time, one purpose being to discuss His Majesty's affairs.
Moreover, there is a more important matter: they want to know Yun chu's current situation; previously, without the Regent Prince, the entire Regent Prince's Manor operated according to Yun chu's say-so.
Now the Regent Prince has returned; the Regent Prince's attitude can determine Yun chu's position, also determine her days, and whether she can remain as carefree as before.
Upon seeing Ning Chengyan's respect for the Kang Clan, his heart settled.
Afterward, the Regent Prince's each inquiry, respecting Yun chu's attitude, all of it, he finally felt at ease.
"Maternal grandfather, Yue Yue and Zhi Dong will probably have to stay at the Kang Clan for a while." Jiang Yunchu lifted his head; afterward came a tough battle.
The battlefield of this tough fight is in the Imperial Palace, but also in the Regent Prince's Manor.
Ning Chengyan, the war god of Da Ning, a symbolic figure, his return to the capital attracted many.
The Wang Fu became a place of right and wrong; here we can no longer shelter the children.
However, this also has a benefit: it will conceal the existence of the Kang Fu and the Qing feng Academy.
"Good, today I will take them." Kang Mengxian directly nodded.
These two children are mostly taught by Jiang Yun Hui, assisted by Ningguang; many textbooks were set by them beforehand.
They have come step by step, with the preceding twelve children as role models, giving them goals and motivation.
"I will let Yun hui and Ningguang go together to the Kang Fu, Spring Hua Academy, altogether only fourteen children, and will not recruit any more afterwards."
Jiang Yunchu lifted his eyes; having these fourteen children is enough for her.
"The plans of the major families in Ning Jing are likely to come to nothing." Kang Lian looked at Yun chu, smiling and shook his head.
Jiang Yunchu didn't quite understand, what does it have to do with the major families of Ning Jing?
"What's wrong?"
Kang Lian gave a light laugh, poured himself a cup of tea, but unexpectedly was given a direct stare by the old master; he spoke, spoke, stammered, and for no reason made Yun chu anxious.
Kang Lian smiled helplessly, after all, who is the real son?
"There are twelve little monsters ahead; the people of the major families are all waiting for you to return, the day Chun Hua Xue Yuan reopens enrollment."
"Not to mention those twelve little monsters, even Yue Yue and Know Winter have already started climbing the second list; all the examinee children are over three years older than them, yet their scores still hover around the top twenty."
"Their progress is lightning fast; each time they advance by more than ten places, leaving the people of the three great academies unable to keep up."
Kang Lian thought of the two children, and even in his heart wondered, what situation have those twelve children reached now?
When they left, they were already at the top of the third list, but there hasn't been a Joint Examination for four years already.
After four years apart, what level they have reached, no one knows.
If they were to return and take the exam, how would they astonish everyone?
"It turns out that's the case."
Jiang Yunchu only then realized that, having just returned, they hadn't even had time to quiz the two children on their lessons, and they hadn't even met Yun Hui, dragging it along like this.
It was only on the first day that they saw the two children.
They are no longer the two plump, white, tender little babies they were when the shop first opened, fragrant sleeves and all.
"But..." Kang Lian looked at Jiang Yunchu, pondering for a moment.
"Keeping the academy open is not necessarily a bad thing; Ning Jing's relations are tangled and complex, with ties from the major clans and mansions, and for the Regent Prince's Manor it is also a form of protection."
Originally, sending the Kang Clan's children over was meant to protect Yun chu.
In fact, this has also turned out to be a good decision.
