Chapter 0133 – The Empress Dowager is really dead (2 / 2)

The Scholar of the Hanlin Academy, which happens to be considered an idle position, is still a short-term one, but promising because it can be close to His Majesty.

Jiang Zhi lowered his eyes, “Thank you, Your Majesty.”

“Well, you just came back from the desert, first rest for a few days, and after five days, join the Hanlin Academy, how?”

“All in accordance with Your Majesty’s arrangements.”

After Jiang Zhi left the palace, Old Yang’s carriage stood guard outside the palace gate, and when he saw Jiang Zhi come out, he immediately welcomed him.

Jiang Zhi asked Old Yang, “Old Yang, are there any rumors about Shen Shizi recently? Or anything strange.”

When Lao Yang heard Jiang Zhi ask about Shen Shizi, his face changed slightly, then he respectfully said: ”Shen Shizi seems to have moved out of the State Duke’s Mansion and is living on his own.

Supposedly there was some sort of trouble with the Duke of State, and other than that, not much.”

Jiang Zhi sighed, she couldn’t ask anything here at Old Yang, but Shen Junze had moved out to live, so it was convenient for her to visit.

Intuition told her that the Empress Dowager’s death was related to Shen Junze.

The first order of business, though, was to get to Cui Xiao.

“Old Yang, go to the Wei Mansion.”

Having really been away for too long, Jiang Zhi didn’t even know that Wei Jingran had gotten a daughter-in-law!

Just half a month ago, Wei Jingran married, daughter-in-law is the daughter of the Ministry of Public Works Lang, born Yu Xue lovely innocent look.

Jiang Zhi saw Wei Jingran’s eyes, full of melancholy color, the little fool seems to be really not stupid, this marriage, Jiang Zhi also do not know how to come, leave a trip, the capital city the whole big change.

Wei Jingran looked at Jiang Zhi slyly from the long corridor, and Jiang Zhi hesitated for a split second, but still walked towards him.

“What’s wrong? Ran?”

Wei Jingran’s long eyelashes flickered, then he shook his head before silently backing away.

Even though Jiang Zhi had a belly full of questions, he eventually held them back and went to Cui Xiao’s courtyard to see Cui Xiao.

“Ru, you’re back.”

Cui Xiao looked haggard and her eyes were covered with red blood, it was obvious that she had been having a bad time lately.

“You are all thin, in the desert north …… is not smooth?”

Jiang Zhi shook his head, ”It’s fine, Xie Qingyu was poisoned by County Lord Yongan’s parasites, but she’s fine now.

Sister Xiao, why did the Empress Dowager really …… have an accident?”

Speaking of the empress dowager, Cui Xiao’s eyes turned even redder, she bit her lip and whispered, “It’s the emperor, it’s definitely the emperor who moved, the empress dowager, she’s obviously fine, suddenly she had a sudden outbreak of a malady, I want to go into the palace to see her, and none of them will give me access.”

Jiang Zhi gritted his teeth and asked again, “The child in your sister’s stomach, it’s still there, right?”

Cui Xiao nodded, “Uh-huh. Thanks to you, Ah Zhi, the dragon seed in Noble Consort Lan’s belly was preserved.”

Cui Xiao paused, “Just because of this, my father and the others were actually …… indifferent to the death of the Empress Dowager’s aunt! Did they think that if Noble Consort Lan gave birth to a dragon’s son, they would be able to support him to succeed the throne?”

Jiang Ru the whole person still seems to be stepping between the clouds, no sense of reality, and Cui Xiao met, for the empress dowager’s death of the real sense, and a few more points.

The Empress Dowager is really dead.
