When Eunuch Zhang heard this, his heart tightened even more. He asked in confusion,” Your Majesty, what do you mean by opening it to the whole world?” Could it be what he thought it meant?
Yuwen Longyan raised his eyebrows and said,” It means that this zoo is for people to admire.”
“Ah?” Eunuch Zhang was stunned.
He had guessed it right.
Yuwen Longyan didn’t notice Eunuch Zhangs expression and continued,” To let the whole world go and admire those ferocious beasts in the forest and call it a zoo, only that girl has such a strange idea.”
Eunuch Zhang thought of a crucial question and asked,” Your Majesty, where is the zoo?”
“It’s the infamous Da Ao Mountain in the country!” Yuwen Longyan said,” I remember that Taoyuan Village is at the foot of Da Ao Mountain.”
“Your Majesty, you didn’t remember wrongly.” Eunuch Zhang immediately echoed, “Isn’t Taoyuan Village at the foot of Da Ao Mountain?”
“This is it.” Yuwen Longyan muttered.
“Your Majesty, this…” Eunuch Zhang asked doubtfully. What did His Majesty mean?
Yuwen Longyan exclaimed,” It seems like the girl is making a big move.”
Eunuch Zhang was speechless.
What did His Majesty mean by that? He was really confused.
Big move, what big move was it?
However, since His Majesty did not say it clearly, he could not ask.
Then, Yuwen Longyan said,” Eunuch Zhang, grab the inkstone. I want to announce to the world the good news of the marriage of the Great General and the Princess of Guguo!’
Eunuch Zhang immediately replied,” Yes, Your Majesty!’
Crown Prince’s residence
The Crown Prince was reading a book in the study when the butler suddenly came over to report,” Your Highness, His Royal Highness, the eldest grandprince has come to visit Your Highness!”
When the Crown Prince heard the announcement, he put down the book in his hand and said happily,” You mean Hong ‘er is here?”
The butler nodded.” Yes, Your Highness. His Highness said that he has something urgent to discuss with you and is currently waiting in the living room!”
His Highness stood up and said,” Yes, I’ll go over now.”
Yuwen Xuhong rubbed his hands together and seemed to be a little nervous, but at the same time, he seemed to be hiding it.
He waited in the living room for a moment before the Crown Prince came out.
The eldest grandson immediately bowed to the Crown Prince and said respectfully,” Hong ‘er greets the Crown Prince, Imperial Uncle!” “Hong ‘er, please rise!” The crown prince immediately said.
Speaking of which, their relationship was closer than others.
They were connected by not only their father but also their mothers.
This was because the former Crown Prince and the current Crown Prince’s mother were biological sisters. Naturally, the relationship between the former Crown Prince and the current Crown Prince was even closer.
As for the orphan left behind by the previous Crown Prince’s brother, the Crown Prince naturally took care of him in every possible way.
“Hong ‘er, sit down and talk!” The Crown Prince said.
After the two of them sat down, the servant girl served tea.
The Crown Prince smiled and asked,” Hong ‘er, why did you come to Imperial Uncle’s place today?”
Yuwen Xuhongs expression was somewhat anxious. He looked at the Crown Prince and opened his mouth, but then looked at the people around him and shut his mouth again.
Looking at Yuwen Xuhongs serious and nervous expression, the Crown Prince guessed that his nephew had something important to say, so he immediately raised his hand to dismiss these servants.
After all the servants left. the Crown Prince asked.” Hong ‘Er. did something
happen?”
Yuwen Xuhong nodded and said hesitantly, “Imperial Uncle, 1… I don’t know how to say this.”
The Crown Prince’s expression froze, and he asked,” What exactly is it?”
Yuwen Xuhong said,” Imperial Uncle, have you heard that the Great General and the Princess of Guguo are getting married?”
Hearing this question, the Crown Prince nodded and said,” Yes, I heard my father mention this before.’
“Ah?” Yuwen Xuhong was shocked. However, he immediately felt jealous.
He had sent people to investigate the marriage between Jiang Zhennan and Lin Yuelan. Other than the Imperial Grandfather and the Imperial Astronomical Supervisor, no one else knew about it.
However, it just so happened that the Crown Prince knew about it.
What did this mean?
It showed how much importance the Imperial Grandfather placed on his Imperial Uncle, the Crown Prince, and that he was already grooming him as a future king.
As for him, the eldest grandson of the emperor?
Every time he went to see his grandfather, he would be stopped outside.
With the support of Princess Guguo, Imperial Uncle’s path to the throne was smooth. It was only a matter of time before he ascended the throne.
But why?
Thinking of this, Yuwen Xuhong was furious.
If his father, the Crown Prince, had not died, then he would be the one inheriting the throne.
Unlike now…
‘ Hong ‘er, Hong er,” the Crown Prince called out worriedly when he saw Yuwen Xuhongs dazed face.
Yuwen Xuhong came back to his senses.
The Crown Prince asked with concern,” Hong ‘er, are you feeling unwell?”
Yuwen Xuhong shook his head.” Thank you for your concern, Imperial Uncle. Hong ‘er is fine.”
The Crown Prince had a suspicious expression, but looking at Yuwen Xuhongs appearance, he indeed seemed fine.
Then, he asked,” Hong ‘er, why are you looking for me…”
