Chapter 53 Stubborn
However, things did not develop as Zhao Changta wished, and Zhao Changyu returned triumphantly.
Then, Zhao Changyu was sent to the most dangerous battlefield by Zhao Changta again and again.
Zhao Changyu returned safely.
As Zhao Changyu grew older, Emperor Zhao Changta was more worried that Zhao Changyu would become independent rather than die on the battlefield, so he stripped Zhao Changyu of his military power and detained him in the capital.
Zhao Changyu pursed her lips slightly, as if thinking about the past.
"Zhenzhen complained to me that you just wouldn't sleep. She was afraid that you would get sick from staying up so she asked me to come and try to persuade you."
Jiang Yunxi pouted, "She told you everything. When did you bribe her?"
Jiang Yunxi mentioned this intentionally. She wanted Zhao Changyu to explain why he sent Jiang Nianbai over.
"You think too highly of me. She is so loyal to you, no one can buy her off, right?" Zhao Changyu certainly understood the implication of Jiang Yunxi's words. He curled his lips slightly, "As for Jiang Nianbai, I just think you need him."
Jiang Yunxi never expected that one day, when facing Zhao Changyu, he would doubt his intentions.
In her previous life, she assisted an emperor to ascend to the throne, but was badly deceived.
Now, when facing another emperor who is about to ascend the throne, she can no longer treat it with a normal attitude.
She had to guess at his every word and every move.
"Among my clan members, I have indeed not seen anyone better than him." Jiang Yunxi paused, "However, I will not appoint someone I am not familiar with. Whether or not to choose him, I still need to observe for a while."
"In any case, I hope you won't interfere with my decisions anymore." Jiang Yunxi didn't want to offend the future emperor, so he proposed a compromise plan. "After all, with Jiang Nianbai's talent, even if he takes the imperial examination, he can still become an official."
Zhao Changyu chuckled, "I don't dare to intervene anymore. I'm afraid if I say one more word about this matter, I'll be in trouble in front of you."
Jiang Yunxi bowed deeply to Zhao Changyu, "Uncle, thank you very much."
She knew that, at least on the surface, Zhao Changyu's sending Jiang Nianbai here was helpful to her.
She also couldn't let Zhao Changyu feel disappointed.
I could only thank him politely with a great bow.
Jiang Yunxi is not the kind of person who pays attention to these empty formalities, and Zhao Changyu certainly isn't either.
So, when he saw Jiang Yunxi politely explaining the rules to him, he subconsciously felt that the relationship between them had become much more distant.
He unconsciously felt a little unhappy.
"Go to bed quickly. If you don't, Zhen Zhen will have to kneel at the door all night."
Jiang Yunxi suddenly realized why she couldn't find Zhen Zhen just now.
It was probably because of this stubborn little girl kneeling at the gate that she begged Zhao Changyu to come and see Jiang Yunxi.
Jiang Yunxi felt helpless for a moment, his cheeks puffed up with anger, and he walked away while saying, "Sleep, I must sleep. How come someone is still controlling me when I'm away from the capital every day?"
Her temper is back.
Zhao Changyu saw it and smiled.

Feng Gou looked at Zhen Zhen who was kneeling stubbornly in front of him and refused to get up. He pointed his finger at his chin for a moment and felt that this matter was very difficult to handle.
He wanted to knock Zhen Zhen unconscious with a knife, but he was outside the isolation area and could not get close to Zhen Zhen or hit her.
He wanted to scold Zhen Zhen back, but he was worried that the girl was too shy.
If Zhen Zhen was scolded by him and cried, it would be even more troublesome.
Feng Gou hesitated for a while, but finally squatted down and coaxed her, "The prince has gone to find the princess, you can go back."
The sound he made was so gentle that it could squeeze water out of it, and Feng Gou couldn't believe that this was a sound he could make.
He clenched his lowered hand into a fist.
Feng Gou thought, couldn't Zhao Changyu assign him some more capable tasks? He could do murder, arson, robbery, etc., but he was wasted his talent by asking him to comfort the little girl in front of him.
Zhen Zhen didn't listen to him and insisted on kneeling.
"Are you hungry? I have some candy here..." Feng Gou searched his pockets and finally found a candy. "Why don't you go back and eat it?"
Zhen Zhen rolled her eyes at him.
Feng Gou also felt that giving her candy was like coaxing a child.
"It's so late, the princess must be hungry, right? Why don't you go and make her something to eat?" Feng Gou apologized with a smile.
"After a certain time, the princess won't eat." Zhen Zhen was very familiar with Jiang Yunxi's habits and knew that Jiang Yunxi was a person who was strict with himself.
Feng Gou looked up at the sky and cried in his heart: God, please tell me how to get her back!!!
"How about I give you a set of punches, and if you enjoy it, you can go back, okay?" Feng Gou tried to continue communicating with Zhen Zhen.
Zhen Zhen completely ignored him.
"Aren't you sleepy? How about I read to you? That thing is very effective in helping you sleep. If you get sleepy while reading, why don't you go back to sleep?"
Feng Gou has learned over the years that reading helps you sleep.
Whenever he couldn't fall asleep, he would read two or three pages of a book and fall into a deep sleep immediately.
It works every time and never fails!
This was exactly what Zhen Zhen wanted. Her eyes lit up and she felt like she had finally found a soulmate.
Jiang Yunxi and Nan Nan were both gifted people. They had read many books, were well versed in classics, history, and literature, and were eloquent. Even the talented people in the capital city were impressed by their articles and poems.
But Zhenzhen only likes to read those storybooks and can't get into those books that talk about moral principles at all.
She felt sleepy after reading a few pages of classics and history.
Feng Gou saw Zhen Zhen's expression and thought there was hope. "Wait a minute. I'll find you a few copies."
"No, my princess can't stop reading once she starts. It's better not to look for her, otherwise she won't sleep again." Zhen Zhen still rejected him.
Feng Gou immediately stopped and thought, "I really can't find her, otherwise Zhen Zhen will come to ask His Royal Highness for peace every day, and I will have to coax Zhen Zhen back every day, and I won't be able to sleep well in the future."
Jiang Yunxi walked towards Zhen Zhen with light steps.
When Feng Gou saw Jiang Yunxi coming back, he bowed to her as if he had seen a savior, "Hello, Princess. Princess, you are finally here..."
"If you don't come again, I will really kneel down too. We will just kneel face to face and wait it out..." Feng Gou thought to himself, he would not sleep today and would accompany Zhen Zhen to the end!
Jiang Yunxi didn't know why, but she could sense a sense of grievance in Feng Gou's tone.
She glanced at Zhen Zhen out of the corner of her eye and thought that perhaps Feng Gou had been humiliated by the stubborn Zhen Zhen.
Jiang Yunxi smiled faintly, "Get up."
She glanced between Feng Gou and Zhen Zhen, and said again, "Both of you get up."
Zhen Zhen didn't even listen to Jiang Yunxi's words. She turned her head and snorted softly.
Feng Gou felt more balanced: "Okay, I told you, it's not my problem. The princess can't persuade Zhen Zhen either."
"I'm going to bed now, without wasting a moment, okay?" Jiang Yunxi asked Zhen Zhen with a smile.
Zhen Zhen then reluctantly nodded and stood up.
She knelt for so long that her legs and feet became numb and she could not stand for a while.
Jiang Yunxi was quick to support Zhen Zhen.
Looking at the backs of Zhen Zhen and Jiang Yunxi leaving, Feng Gou was stunned, "Just... just like that? She went back just like that? Then what was the point of me begging her with tears and shouting just now?"
He thought he would have to watch Zhen Zhen and Jiang Yunxi fight for three hundred rounds!
