Especially Jiang Mubai, who had feelings for the emperor, couldn't help but burst into tears: "Thank you, I have fulfilled my mission, but why didn't your majesty take good care of the dragon body?"

The emperor smiled and said: "A person can live for a hundred years, but only die once. It happens to everyone, and you don't have to be like this, general. Fortunately, I can survive until the day you come back."

"Your Majesty has a long and prosperous life and will definitely get well."

"Stop talking about that." The emperor shook his head, then looked at Li You and said softly, "Prince Zhao, you have worked hard this time. You look a lot thinner."

"It is my honor to serve the Emperor."

"You all go back to your mansion to rest, clean up, and meet your family. Especially Prince Zhao. After your wedding, you left Princess Zhao in the mansion and left her for more than half a year before you went back to meet her family."

Jiang Mubai and King Zhao each received their rewards and returned to their respective homes.

The Jiang family held a lively banquet for him, while Prince Zhao's palace seemed much deserted.

Jiang Yan and him separated after they got married. They were very strange to each other. They waited hard for him to come back. Although they were excited and happy, they couldn't express it.

At night, she naturally expected her husband to go back to her room with her to rest.

Unexpectedly, King Zhao excused himself from being tired and injured after the war and never set foot in her room.

It was like this for three days in a row.

Jiang Yan endured her shyness and took the initiative to go to his room, but he coldly kicked her out.

Jiang Yan was heartbroken.

She really didn't understand why King Zhao didn't want to touch her since he married her.

"Your Majesty, you think my concubine is not beautiful enough?" she said in awe.

"No." King Zhao said indifferently, "I am busy with affairs, as you know."

"If the prince doesn't like me, I can provide him with some beautiful concubines." Jiang Yan knew that she wasn't as pretty as her seventh sister, but she was also pretty and lovely.

Sure enough, King Zhao still refused.

After being like this for many days, Jiang Yan finally couldn't hold it back anymore and cried to Aunt Bai when she returned to her parents' home again.

Aunt Bai racked her brains, bought a bottle of medicine at a high price, took it back to her, and told her to do this, so she was not afraid that King Zhao would not take the bait.

Jiang Yan went back with the medicine full of expectations.

On the third day of March, the emperor issued an edict and disclosed the identity of King Zhao, saying that he was one of a pair of twins the queen had given birth to that year. He reluctantly gave away one of the twins because he was afraid of rumors that the twins would be punished by God.

The ruling and opposition parties were shocked.

Jiang Ning was also shocked.

What shocked everyone was not that the emperor disclosed that Prince Zhao was his son, but that the emperor actually used this method to directly make Prince Zhao the legitimate son of the queen.

This suddenly raised King Zhao's status too high.

But in fact, no one doubts whether King Zhao is one of the twins, and no one cares about the truth or falsehood.

The important thing is that the emperor said he was, and he was.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is just a way for the emperor to let King Zhao recognize his ancestor and return to the clan.

Jiang Ning finally realized that the emperor had been refusing to deal with the queen just to wait for this day to keep the queen as a mother for his beloved illegitimate son.

The emperor is too thoughtful.

As he was dying, it was the prince's turn to take the throne. At this moment, the identity of King Zhao was suddenly revealed.

What's the meaning?

He is giving King Zhao a chance.

Originally, King Zhao was just the son of Prince Kang, but now he became the legitimate son of the emperor.

This means that he has legal inheritance rights.
