With this, the two of them could escape.
Thinking of this, the Imperial Consort could not help but admire Consort Shu.
After all, she was the daughter of the Nangong family. She was gentle and weak on the surface, but she was resolute on the inside.
“Yes. Moreover, the general had agreed to serve me.” Prince Anyang said. As he said this, a glint flashed in his eyes.
Nangong Xiao was no weaker than Nangong Zhan back then.
Furthermore, Nangong Xiao was the young master of the Nangong Clan and the new master of the Nangong Army.
Nangong Xiao joining him meant that not only would he be able to obtain a valiant general, but he would also be able to obtain a strong army.
Each of the soldier was a match for ten.
Even though there were less than 6,000 people left, their combat power was close to 60,000.
With such an army in his hands, he would have the strength to contend with his father.
Yes, he wanted to fight against his father.
Since his father was not willing to make him the Crown Prince, he did not want it either.
He would take the position that was higher than the Crown Prince.
The Imperial Consort was shocked.
She instantly understood her son’s thoughts.
Then, she held her son’s hands.
“Alright. You can go with peace of mind. I will help you keep an eye here.”
Prince Anyang’s heart skipped a beat.
“After I leave, you don’t need to worry about anything in the capital.” He looked at his mother.
“Just take care of yourself. When 1 arrived in Anyang County, 1 would conceal my strength and bide my time. I will secretly prepare my troops in hopes of returning to the capital as soon as possible to reunite with you.”
The Imperial Consort’s heart warmed, and tears welled up in her eyes.
“In addition, I hope you can take care of Consort Shu.”
“The Nangong family has been destroyed, so the general and ninth brother must be worried about Consort Shu. When the time is right, perhaps…”
Perhaps, he could think of a way to get Consort Shu out of the palace.
After some time, when the Emperor completely gave up on searching for Nangong Xiao and Ninth Brother, Consort Shu would be useless.
It would be much easier to take Consort Shu out of the palace then.
Thinking of this, Prince Anyang actually envied his ninth brother.
Consort Shu had hopes of leaving the palace, but his mother couldn’t.
This time, when he left the capital, the one he could not bear to leave behind the most was his mother, and the one he was most worried about was also his mother.
His mother had sacrificed too much for him.
The Imperial Consort understood her son’s expression and patted his hand.
“I know. You can go with peace of mind, I will take care of Consort Shu. I will wait for you to come back.”
She was already a n.o.ble consort and she had no way to advance further.
If she wanted to be a mother to the world, she could only rely on her son.
Her son wanted to be the emperor, and she wanted to be the empress dowager. They could work together.
“Yes!” Prince Anyang nodded firmly.
Then, he chatted with her for a while before leaving.
They continued forward and pa.s.sed by a small forest. The convoy rested there.
When the convoy set off again, no one knew that there were already a few people missing.
Two hours later, Prince Anyang and Liang Yu were on the main road to Anyang County.
At the same time.
Daishi Village.
Jiang Dahe had received news that Ms. Lin wanted to discuss business with him.
This morning, after breakfast, he rode the ox-cart and rushed to Daishi Village.
Zhao Fu invited her into the main room and then asked someone to call for Lin Xiaoyue.
Jiang Dahe was in the central hall, drinking the tea that the servants served. He sighed in his heart.
He had come to the Liu residence several times, and the intervals between visits were not long.
However, every time he came over, he found that the residence looked different.
The development was too fast…
“Uncle Jiang is here.” Lin Xiaoyue’s voice suddenly sounded.
Jiang Dahe quickly stood up.
“Greetings, Ms. Lin.” He respectfully cupped his hands at Lin Xiaoyue and bowed.
“Hehe, please sit down.” Lin Xiaoyue smiled.
She walked straight to the chair.
Jiang Dahe responded and sat down.
Lin Xiaoyue sat down and looked at Jiang Dahe with a smile.
“Thank you for making this trip, Uncle Jiang.”
“No trouble at all…” Jiang Dahe quickly replied.
“I heard from Zhao Qiang that you want to see me?”
Lin Xiaoyue smiled and nodded. “Yes.”
“I plan to open some chain stores in Nan’an County and other large towns around.”
“Before that, we need to do some renovation..”
