Chapter 700: Everyone Treats Queen Jiang as an Imaginary Enemy
At the Fourth Prince's Mansion, Zhang Yurou also received the news that Queen Jiang had left the palace and hurried to find Xie Yang, asking tentatively: "Your Majesty, you asked someone to monitor the Queen. What do you want to do?"
"She is Xie Shang's weak spot." Xie Yang said: "If you want to deal with Xie Shang, you have to deal with Jiang Fenghua first. If you want to deal with her, you have to understand her first. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you find her flaws."
Zhang Yurou was puzzled and even a little disdainful. It was too easy for Jiang Fenghua to be the queen. The queen could leave the palace whenever she wanted. She lived a very free life.
She said, "What do you know about her? I don't think she's anything special. If you have to say her weakness, the Jiang family is it." Does Xie Yang also like Jiang Fenghua?
"How could a woman be able to uproot a great general's mansion and make Concubine Su and Su Xuan want to kill her? In the end, they both died at her hands. This prince is very curious about how she did it."
Zhang Yurou saw Xie Yang's eyes full of admiration for Jiang Fenghua, and she felt very unconvinced, "Isn't she just a woman? No matter how capable she is, can she be the emperor?"
Xie Yang said coldly: "She is a woman, and you are also a woman. What can you do? You should not give up on Xie Shang. If you have one ten-thousandth of the brains of Queen Jiang, Xie Shang would not ignore you."
Zhang Yurou was furious. "Xie Yang, you...what right do you have to say that to me? I'm not good at anything. Why did you come to my house and ask to marry me?"
Xie Yang glared at her. "Because you are a talented woman in Shengjing, but I didn't expect you to be just a fake talent. Your cousin Zhang Yumo wrote all those articles for you! I asked you to write a poem on the Lantern Festival, but you couldn't do it. Without Zhang Yumo's help, you would be embarrassed!"
Duke Zhang is prestigious, and marrying the daughter of the Zhang family would at least give him a good reputation. Unexpectedly, Zhang Yurou's reputation was all directed and acted by herself. Over the years, he could only cooperate with her and try to maintain the face of the Fourth Princess.
Zhang Yurou was so angry that her face turned red. "I...you...you and I are the same. How can you be any better? The Fourth Prince is timid, cowardly, incompetent and useless. These are what others think of you. If you could fight for honor on the battlefield like the emperor, you wouldn't be doing nothing and even be looked down upon by your father..."
"Pa." Xie Yang slapped Zhang Yurou on the face, with a fierce look in his eyes, "I'll let you see what I'm capable of."
Her eyes were full of disbelief. This was the first time she was beaten by Xie Yang and the first time she saw his vicious side.
In the past, she always laughed at Luo Ziqiong for being beaten by the Second Prince, wondering how could such a fierce person like Luo Ziqiong not be defeated. Now she realized that it is harder than climbing to the sky for a woman to beat a man.
Zhang Yurou is usually quite powerful in front of Xie Yang, and his concubine is completely subdued by her. Unexpectedly, now she can't even fight back and can only passively take the beating.
Xie Yang cursed, "Slut, you still want to seduce Xie Shang when you are like this, will he pay attention to you?"
There was even a jade pendant on Zhang Yurou's body for no reason. Xie Yang recognized that it was the jade ornament that Xie Shang wore, but now it was hanging on Zhang Yurou's body.
He pulled off the jade pendant and threw it on the ground. "This thing belongs to Xie Shang, how come it is on you?"
Zhang Yurou was so heartbroken when she saw the jade pendant was broken that she burst into tears. At this moment, she was really scared and did not dare to confront Xie Yang. She explained, "This was given to Yier by the Emperor. I am just keeping it for her."
"No matter what dirty thoughts you have in your heart, please put them away. You are the Fourth Prince's Consort now. Don't lose face for the Fourth Prince's Mansion." Xie Yang said in a deep voice.
Zhang Yurou only felt pain on her cheeks and was so scared that she dared not say a word. Xie Yang wanted to rebel and seize the throne. On what basis did he...
Xie Yang seemed to know what she was thinking, and warned her coldly: "Your Zhang family is now on the same boat with me. For the prosperity of your Zhang family, you should be a good fourth princess and a good daughter of the Zhang family."
Zhang Yurou was stunned. What he meant was that the Zhang family also supported Xie Yang. Why didn’t she hear her father say that?
"You continue to befriend Zhang Yumo, no matter what method you use to build a good relationship with the Jiang family."
After Zhang Yurou left, Xie Yang's confidant walked in quietly, "Your Majesty, Minister Shu sent a letter to ask you to meet him."
Xie Yang sat in front of the desk with his eyes closed, and said, "It's not time yet, Minister Shu, please wait patiently for my notice."
The confidant said, "Minister Shu has asked the prince out many times. It would be bad if the prince didn't come to see him."
Xie Yang said: "The safest thing now is to have no movement. I cannot take this risk yet. Wen Yu, go contact the Bai family and ask the Bai family's daughter to entangle Jiang Jinyan. If we want to deal with Queen Jiang, we have to start with the Jiang family."
Wen Yu said respectfully: "Yes."

On the other side, Jiang Fenghua took Hongxiu to Jishan Hall. Hongxiu said, "The original name of this place was Lingyun Villa. It was the hard work of the queen and the owner of Tan Villa. Many of our businesses are related to the villa. Later, the name was changed to Jishan Hall. Now it is considered a public relief center."
Hongxiu has been helping to manage Jiang Fenghua and Lin Yu's account books. If she hadn't told him, Jiang Fenghua wouldn't have known how rich he was.
Jiang Fenghua finally understood that she really couldn't live without Hongxiu. Even if she wanted Hongxiu to get married, she would have to live in the palace like Lian Ye, because Lin Feng also lived in the palace.
The Cheng family was such a big family, she couldn't bear to let Hongxiu marry into it and suffer, so this matter could only be dealt with slowly after returning to the palace.
"Later, I will take you to Xiangya Pavilion, which is a restaurant run by Miss Lin Yu. It does good business."
They met Luo Ziqiong and Helan Jue in Jishan Hall. Now the toxins in their bodies have been completely cured, which shows that Helan Jue's prescription is effective. Doctor Mei has already started using this prescription to treat other poisoned patients, and the effect is good.
Jiang Fenghua said to Helan Jue, "I would like to thank Master Helan on behalf of the people."
"I didn't do anything, Your Majesty, you don't have to thank me." Helan Jue looked at Luo Ziqiong, "It was Miss Luo who helped me test the medicine."
Luo Ziqiong said: "It's all thanks to Master Helan. I just wanted to stay alive. I haven't thanked Master Helan yet. Thank you for saving my life."
Helan Jue said, "Don't say that, Miss Luo. I don't know if it will work. It's just that you are lucky."
"No, I really want to thank Master Helan..."
Seeing the two people thanking each other, Jiang Fenghua quickly said, "If you put it this way, I want to thank you two. If it weren't for you, the lives of so many people would be in danger. Thank you, Miss Luo, thank you, Mr. Helan."
The two of them hurriedly said: "Don't dare..."
Jiang Fenghua suddenly smiled, "Okay, let's stop thanking each other. Jishan Hall has been saved. I'll treat you to a meal."
Luo Ziqiong said, "Let's go to my restaurant! It's not far from here. I'll treat you to a meal."
During the time that Luo Ziqiong was at Jishan Hall, her maid would come to report on the restaurant's business. Without her in charge, business was very poor.
Luo Ziqiong's parents originally did not agree with her staying in Shengjing, but she insisted on staying. Some people also pointed fingers at her, but she had no plans to get married again, so she became more and more calm about other people's pointing fingers at her.
As soon as I arrived at the door of the restaurant, I heard the noisy sound of plates and bowls being smashed coming from inside.
