Chapter 425: The Paranoid Prince in the Extra Story (5)
Jiang Yimo directly named Jiang Zui the King of Freedom, meaning that he hoped Jiang Zui would live a free and unrestrained life.
Moreover, he gave Jiang Zui a very luxurious mansion and countless treasures and money.
But even so, Jiang Yimo still felt it was not enough, and made an exception to allow Jiang Zui to live in the palace.
"Xiaozui, listen to me. You are still young and need someone to take care of you, so just stay in the palace. When you grow up, you can move out of the palace, okay?" Jiang Yimo's gentle tone carried a hint of pleading.
Jiang Zui sighed and said helplessly: "Brother, I am not young anymore, and you...you are also old, isn't it time to find a royal sister-in-law?!
All these years, you have been refusing to get married for my sake. Now that you have settled down, you should think more about yourself."
The reason why Jiang Yimo hasn't married in all these years is not only because of Jiang Zui, but also largely because the late emperor and Su Yao don't want Jiang Yimo to marry a noble lady so that Jiang Yimo can get the support of his wife's family.
But the most important thing is that Jiang Yimo has never thought about this aspect. He was only thinking about revenge and taking care of Jiang Zui, and he never met someone he liked.
Hearing Jiang Zui's words, Jiang Yimo burst out laughing and said, "Xiao Zui, you are controlling me now?!
Does it matter whether I marry or not?
"Of course it's important." Jiang Zui nodded as a matter of course, and quickly responded: "Brother, if you don't get married, how can I have the nerve to marry a husband?"
"Marry a husband?!" Jiang Yimo said in surprise: "Hahaha, you are only nine years old and you already know how to marry a husband?!
Do you have a favorite boy?
Talk to my brother."
"I like the little brother from County Magistrate Ruan's family."
"It's actually him!" As soon as he said this, Jiang Yimo suddenly thought of Ruan Yu and teased, "How old is this guy?! Are you going to marry him?!"
Jiang Zui changed the subject and said, "Brother Huang, please don't change the subject. I'm talking about you."
"Okay, okay, now Xiaozui has his own secret and doesn't want to tell it to my brother." Jiang Yimo pretended to be aggrieved.
"No!" Jiang Zui immediately retorted: "Brother, I didn't say that."
After a pause, he pretended to speak earnestly, "Brother, I am only nine years old, and I already know how to find a husband. Look at you, when will I be able to hold my little nephew in my arms?"
Jiang Yimo didn't expect that after not seeing him for half a year, his once sensitive and timid brother actually knew how to tease him.
Jiang Yimo said casually: "Okay, don't worry, I will definitely not delay you from getting married."
Then he continued: "Then...are you still going to live in the palace?!"
"Stop." Jiang Zui said helplessly, "But I have a request."
Jiang Zui planned to live in the palace for two or three years before returning home.
After all, he is only nine years old now, and Jiang Yimo will definitely be worried, so he will wait until he is twelve or thirteen.
"What request?!" Jiang Yimo asked excitedly.
"You should get married soon."
"Okay, okay, okay. I'll issue an order to select a concubine right now, okay?!" Jiang Yimo agreed immediately.

Two months after Jiang Zui left, Ruan Jiuchao finally received the first letter from the capital.
"Chao Chao, guess what this is?!" Ruan Yu took out the envelope from his arms, showed it to Ruan Jiuchao, and asked.
When Ruan Jiuchao heard Ruan Yu's words, he suddenly raised his head, his pupils widened instantly, and he said cautiously: "Is... is it the letter that Brother Xiaozui gave me?!"
After Jiang Zui left, Ruan Jiuchao was in low spirits for a long time. Even when Ruan Heng took the initiative to look for him to play, he was not motivated.
He kept asking Ruan Yujiang whether he had written to him while drunk.
After a long time, Ruan Jiuchao still didn't receive a letter from Jiang Zui, so he burst into tears and complained to Song Qingwan: "Mother, why hasn't Brother Xiaozui written to me yet?!
Is he in danger?!
Did he forget about Chao Chao?!
Don’t like Chao Chao anymore?! ”
Song Qingwan kept comforting Ruan Jiuchao in her arms and said, "Chaochao, don't cry. Your brother Xiaozui probably hasn't arrived in the capital yet. The capital is very far away from us, so don't worry. Wait a little longer. Who knows, your brother Xiaozui may write to you soon."
Ruan Yu, who was standing by, looked at Ruan Jiuchao who was crying so hard, and couldn't stand Jiang Zui, so he said with contempt:
He saw that the boy was so happy in the capital that he probably had forgotten his family Chaochao a long time ago.
Haha, he knew how patient a little brat could be? !
ahhh-
Mad!
His Chaochao is so cute, so adorable, and so well-behaved. Damn this little brat, he is so blind.
Pooh! ! !
Although Ruan Yu didn't say it, he was already annoyed with Jiang Zui, who made his family cry every day.
After that, as time went by, Ruan Jiuchao gradually found the fun of playing and no longer mentioned Jiang Zui so often.
Just recently, Ruan Yu suddenly received a letter from Jiang Yimo, along with a letter from Jiang Zui to Ruan Jiuchao and a gift for Ruan Jiuchao.
Ruan Yu first read Jiang Yimo's letter. After reading the letter, Ruan Yu couldn't help but want to swear.
MD, feudal society is all about bullying people.
Jiang Yimo relied on his status and asked me to take good care of the future Princess Xiaoyao.
Depend on!
Chao Chao is his child, how could he not take good care of him?!
He finally realized that Jiang Yimo came here just to support Jiang Zui.
What he said implicitly was, My dear Ruan, your little brother has already been chosen by the royal family.
Chaochao, daddy is sorry for depriving you of the right to choose your husband.
After calming down, Ruan Yu looked at the envelope on the side.
The letter Jiang Zui wrote to Chao Chao? !
He wanted to read it, but felt it was not right to open a child's letter.
After hesitating for a long time, Ruan Yu still did not open the letter, but he knew Chaochao was illiterate, so he could help read it when the time came.
Ruan Yu looked at his own Chao Chao's expectant expression and felt a little angry, but he pretended to be calm on the surface and said, "Yes, it's you... the letter from Brother Xiaozui."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ruan Jiuchao quickly ran to Ruan Yu, raised his hands and said, "Daddy, Daddy, give me the letter quickly! I want to read it!"
"Okay, okay, don't be anxious." Seeing Ruan Jiuchao so excited, Ruan Yu felt a little jealous and said, "Chaochao, can you read?"
After these words came out, Ruan Jiuzhao's bright eyes were full of confusion, and he whispered: "No...I don't know him."
"Let me read it to you." Ruan Yu picked up Ruan Jiuchao and said.
"Dad, open it quickly!" Ruan Jiuchao urged.
Ruan Yu opened the envelope, unfolded the letter, and took a general look at it.
"How is it? What did Brother Xiaozui say?!" Ruan Jiuzhao said with anticipation in his eyes.
Ruan Yu's mouth twitched, and he thought to himself:
I boil!
This kid... is actually so good at coaxing people? !
Sweet talk! Can't be trusted!
Ruan Yu gritted his teeth and said, "It's nothing. Your brother Xiaozui has arrived in the capital safely. He wants you to eat well, not be picky about food, and... remember to think about him."
There was a vicious tone in Ruan Yu's voice when he said the last sentence.
He didn't want Jiang Zui and Chao Chao to get close, but Jiang Yimo's letter was there, plus what Jiang Zui said to him before he left.
Even if he doesn't want to, he has to think about it.
His reason told him that matching Chaochao with that brat now would be good for Chaochao's future. After all, the two had been childhood sweethearts and had a deep affection for each other.
But selfishly, his son Chaochao was only six years old, and he was kidnapped by a brat from another family at such a young age.
Oh, I'm so sad.
