Legitimate Daughter Never Be Concubine - C145
When everyone had left, Greatfather Quan brought the emperor some tea. “Your Majesty, have a pleasant tea.”
After drinking some tea, the emperor could not help but sigh. “Quan De, why do you think that none of my sons can relax?”
The Crown Prince was relieved. He wanted to say it, but once he did, he was not far from death. Currently, the emperor forbade the Crown Prince the most. Whoever said that the Crown Prince was good would most likely be the Emperor’s killing intent waiting for him.
With this thought in mind, Quan De could only say: “The princes have just not grown up yet, and the Emperor is currently in his prime, so the princes also need your education.”
To be able to stay close to the emperor as his father-in-law, he had practiced this flattering skill to the extreme. What he said was all true, at least on the surface.
And every word was something the emperor was willing to hear.
After the emperor heard what Quan De had to say, his anger immediately subsided a lot. He then said: “Go and pass on my orders, send people to guard the city gates. When King Luo and the crown prince return, bring them to my palace! “I’d like to see just what these people want to do!”
“Yes.” All was respectful.
However, after Quan De left, the Emperor no longer had the same angry expression as before. He only coldly asked, “Is Commander Tie Wei here?”
Upon saying that, a man wearing black armor and an iron mask leaped down from the roof and kneeled on the floor, “This subordinate is here. Does master have any instructions for me?”
“Tell the people hiding in the shadows to slow down, I think it’s time to change the way things are going with the other cities.” The Emperor’s words caused the Iron Guard commander to not dare to neglect them, so he hurriedly said, “Yes.”
With that, he left.
At this moment, only the emperor was left in the imperial study. He found an old painting scroll and when it was opened, all he saw was a girl with bright eyes and white teeth painted on it.
The young girl held a lantern in her hand, her eyes devoid of any other colors as if she was smiling. It was lifelike, as if it could walk out of the painting at any moment.
If there was anything wrong with it, it was probably because the painting was already old. Furthermore, after being looked at in the opposite direction for a long time, this side of the mountain was also covered in fluffy thorns. The Emperor looked at the woman in the painting and said nostalgically, “Yunji, if you were still here, you would surely understand me, right?”
The Emperor’s tone contained love, sadness and even more helplessness. If someone were to see this scene, they would definitely be shocked.
After all, even in the eyes of the princes, His Majesty was now a heartless man. Although he doted on the Seventh Prince, that was all. The Emperor’s intellect had reached a terrifying level.
However, the Emperor was like an ordinary person. He would feel sad, sad, and reminisce about something when facing a portrait.
Of course, if someone could see the person in the portrait clearly, they would be even more shocked. Because the person in the portrait and the Sixth Prince … It was shockingly similar!
And this woman was none other than the Sixth Prince’s mother.
“I say, sixth brother, you’re serious too. I know that royal father doesn’t like to hear your words, but I still want to say them. Take a look?” Are we all being chased out now? ” The Seventh Prince laughed as he teased the Sixth Prince, who was silently standing by his side.
The Ninth Prince then asked, “Why is royal father always treating sixth brother coldly? They are obviously royal father’s sons. ” The ninth prince’s words also contained the same dissatisfaction with the fact that the emperor only doted on the seventh prince.
“It’s probably because I was born weak that royal father would be so disgusted with me.” The Sixth Prince had a faint smile on his face and looked extremely humble.
It was as if his fist had hit cotton. The Seventh Prince and the Ninth Prince gave up their conversation with the Sixth Prince and left the palace together with him, symbolically friendly.
After leaving the palace gates, the Sixth Prince left first, not even bidding farewell to the two of them. The Ninth Prince frowned as he watched the Sixth Prince’s retreating back. No one could blame their royal father for disliking him. Who could endure such a temper?
“Ol’nine, I’ll be leaving first.” The Seventh Prince was talking and laughing. He opened his fan and shook it. Suddenly, he looked like a handsome young master.
Hearing this, the Ninth Prince frowned: “Why is Seventh Brother speaking up for King Luo today?”
“My relationship with Brother Luo is not bad, so I naturally cannot let royal father misunderstand. Moreover, if we misunderstand, when the matter is resolved in the future, where would the face of our royal family be?
Ninth Brother, don’t always think of trying to curry favor with Imperial Father. After all, you are the son of the Emperor, and not a child from a hundred families. ” After he finished speaking, the Seventh Marquis’ smile didn’t change. Then he left.
The ninth prince felt disdain in his heart! It was said so lightly, if it wasn’t for royal father’s favor, how could he have said such words? I wonder how Seventh Brother is worthy of royal father’s trust.
He was just a petty villain!
The Ninth Prince thought for a while and then walked to his carriage. However, the moment he got on the carriage, he was shocked. “Mu-Muhou?”
“Shh!” The empress sat on the Ninth Prince’s carriage, motioning for him to keep quiet. The ninth prince was so frightened that he immediately shut his mouth. One must know that the person he feared the most was the empress.
Everything he’d done was given to him by the empress. Every time something happened, she’d be the one to come up with a plan. Now, this empress who rarely did anything out of line actually ran into his carriage?
The ninth prince was astonished.
“Your Majesty doesn’t like me participating in political affairs, but I can’t let you go, so I came up with this plan. Well? Did your royal father say how it should be decided? ” The empress looked at her youngest son and asked with concern.
Hearing that, the Ninth Prince’s face turned bitter: “Don’t mention it anymore! Originally, everything was fine. He knew that the moment Sixth Brother opened his mouth, he infuriated royal father and chased all of us out.
However, royal father would probably send people to block the city gate, however, this matter would not be interrogated in public, it was just a symbolic question.
Queen Mother, this matter cannot be handled. ” The ninth prince gloomily spoke the truth that he had no choice but to admit. This was a great opportunity, one that no one could touch!
Hearing that, the Queen was not surprised, she merely snorted, “Of course not. Your royal father doesn’t trust any of you. Those of you fighting for power are just humiliation in his eyes.
If he is still alive, how can he be happy when you start considering the ownership of the throne? As for King Luo and the crown prince, your royal father wouldn’t even touch them. “He is just an old fox. He will definitely stay dormant when the time comes.” The empress and the emperor had been husband and wife for many years, and they had long since figured out the emperor’s temper.
The Ninth Prince, on the other hand, was shocked. If anyone heard this, they would be punished.
“Xiao Jiu, you must remember, no matter what happens in the future, you must plan before acting. As for the imperial power, the Queen Mother will help you. You don’t have to do something smart yourself. ” The empress looked worriedly at the Ninth Prince, exhorting him repeatedly.
“But the Queen Mother.” The ninth prince frowned, feeling a little unresigned in his heart.
“Alright, haven’t you been paying attention to the Su Family recently? Since he was dissatisfied, he might as well take this matter back. In this world, power and authority are important, but money can also move a person’s heart. Otherwise, your royal father wouldn’t have found an excuse to kill Old General Tantai. ”
The Queen comforted the Ninth Prince.
When the Ninth Prince mentioned the Su Clan, he was immediately in high spirits. Firstly, it was because of the gold. Secondly, it was because the Su Clan was profitable. So he said respectfully, “Yes, mother. I know. Your son will not disappoint you. ”
Hearing his words, the empress nodded her head in satisfaction. Then she slowly got off the carriage and headed towards the palace. Because she was the empress, the guards didn’t stop her.
The sky gradually darkened.
At the city gates, the carriage slowly entered the Royal Capital. However, the next moment, the carriage was seized. Not for any other reason, but because of the mark of King Luo Palace on it.
“Who is it?” “You dare to stop the carriage of King Luo Palace?” The guards behind Luo Mingyu were all furious, they drew their swords and pulled out their swords to rush up.
Then, he heard a shout, “Your Majesty’s edict invites King Luo to enter the palace for an audience.”
