Chapter 6 Cang Geng's Memories
According to Cang Geng's recollection, he followed the prince to Taixue that day, and after school, the grandmother of Yongshou Palace came to pass on the will of the Queen Mother, and asked His Royal Highness the Prince to go to Yongshou Palace to see the Queen Mother.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince grew up with the Queen Mother before he was ten years old, and he lived in the East Palace after the age of ten, so he had a very deep relationship with the Queen Mother, but that day I don't know why, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was a little irritable, although he responded to the grandmother of Yongshou Palace, but then he looked gloomy and irritable.
Cang Geng didn't know the reason, so he had to serve more carefully, everyone in the palace knew that Prince Mingcheng's temper was a little weird, and the people who served in the East Palace had developed a cautious habit, because if he accidentally angered this master, the pain of flesh and skin was inevitable, and it was good to be able to save his life.
Cang Geng didn't know why the prince suddenly became emotionally sour, but Xuan Huang could guess one or two. When the prince was still young, he obeyed the words of the imperial grandmother who raised him, but since he grew up, he couldn't listen to the queen mother tell him bad things about his mother, but the queen mother had a general relationship with the emperor, and the queen was even more on the same page, and every time he had to catch the prince Mingcheng, and repeatedly emphasized how his father and queen mother were not good, and how bad they were.
As the crown prince grew up, he became less and less fond of listening to these words, according to Xuanhuang, after all, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the emperor and empress are father and son, mother and son, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still can't tolerate others repeatedly telling him how bad their parents are. Therefore, although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still close to the Queen Mother, he also dislikes going to Yongshou Palace more and more. However, the queen mother thought that the prince did not like to go to her palace because the queen provoked her, and she fought with the queen even more openly and secretly.
Xuan Huang once heard His Royal Highness the Crown Prince argue with the Queen Mother, "The father and the queen mother are not like that. As a result, the Queen Mother was furious, Xuanhuang's first board was because of this, and since then, every time he follows His Royal Highness the Prince to Yongshou Palace, he will be worried, worried that his master will lose his temper again, and the Queen Mother will not beat His Royal Highness the Prince when she is angry, but these servants who follow His Royal Highness the Prince have become the best punching bag.
Later, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince went to Yongshou Palace as promised, and accompanied the Queen Mother to talk for half an hour, but did not stay for dinner as usual, hurried out of the main hall, and wanted to return to the East Palace. Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince lost his temper with the people serving around him at that time, and was even very silent, Cang Geng felt that his mood was not good, and Cang Geng muttered in his heart at the time, I don't know what the Queen Mother said to His Royal Highness the Prince. According to Cang Geng, because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is close to the Queen Mother, he even threw away his own father's mother, which is not a good thing for His Royal Highness the Prince's future. Not to mention far, just talking about the younger brother of His Royal Highness the Prince, the second prince is obviously closer to the emperor and queen, and the emperor has praised the second prince for having the style of ancestors in front of the courtiers many times.
Yongshou Palace is in the north of the imperial city, and they have to go through the imperial garden when they return to the East Palace, and when they are in the imperial garden, they meet the second prince Minghua very coincidentally. The second prince was with the second princess Xuanyang and the fifth princess Changping at that time.
When Xuan Huang heard this, he frowned, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not close to his siblings and brothers, and Xuan Huang has only served by the Prince's side in the past two years, so he doesn't know the reason very well, but I believe that this phenomenon is still consistent with some rumors in the palace. However, if the rumors are true, it is no wonder that the emperor and queen have always been lukewarm to His Royal Highness the Prince.
The second prince and the two princesses greeted His Royal Highness the Crown Prince very warmly, and invited His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to go to the Chengqing Palace of the Second Prince to play, saying that the Second Prince was going to hold a small banquet tonight.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always been unfamiliar with his younger brother, and even has some faint hostility. He didn't pay attention to the second prince at that time, and he didn't wait for them to finish speaking, he just snorted and turned his head away. As a result, the fifth princess was unhappy, so she said in the back, "Brother Prince, why are you so bad to the second brother?"
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was in a bad mood, but when he looked back, he saw that the second prince protected the second princess and the fifth princess behind him, after all, everyone was a fellow mother, but the three of them were so close, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was so lonely, and he was blamed by the fifth princess, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince felt uncomfortable at that time. At that time, the prince looked at the three people opposite with a gloomy face, the second prince was playing a round, and wanted to pull the second princess and the fifth princess away, but the fifth princess was also a child who was pampered by the emperor and the queen, but refused to go, and walked in front of His Royal Highness the prince.
Cang Geng remembered the scene at that time, and he was still quite afraid, the two masters confronted each other directly, one was the prince of the empire, who grew up in the palm of the queen mother's hand since he was a child, and the other was the proud daughter of the sky, who grew up in the palm of the queen and the emperor since he was a child.
If the second prince and the second princess, for various reasons, the emperor and the queen are not very pampered, but the fifth princess, since birth, has been very cute, combining the best advantages of the emperor and the queen, smart and clever, and has won the love of the emperor and queen since she was a child. The Xuanzheng Palace, where the emperor handles political affairs, is the only one who dares to break in, and even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, if not summoned by the emperor, does not dare to enter the Xuanzheng Palace. So Cang Geng felt that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince might be jealous of his biological sister Fifth Princess.
At that time, the fifth princess walked up to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and said, "Did the prince's brother just come back from the imperial grandmother again?
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince slapped him out at that time, Cang Geng was frightened, and quickly knelt down with the other attendants, not daring to raise his head, only hearing the exclamations of the second prince and the second princess, and hearing the hurried footsteps of the second prince, as well as his anxious voice, "Fifth sister, how are you?"
At that time, Cang Geng secretly raised his eyes to take a look, and saw the second prince running over and wanted to help the fifth princess, the fifth princess covered her face with her hands, looked at her eldest brother in disbelief, and was aggrieved and angry, and blurted out, "I told my father to go, it's the imperial grandmother who is used to you." Then he turned around and tried to run away. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince subconsciously pulled the five princesses back, and the five princesses were angry, naturally beating, kicking and biting. I don't know if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is guilty, but he just grabbed the fifth princess to death. At this time, the second prince couldn't help but step forward, half-hugged the fifth princess, comforted her softly, and pulled her away from His Royal Highness the crown prince a few steps before stopping.
Cang Geng didn't dare to look up again, he had just seen His Royal Highness the Prince's face was pale, his expression was gloomy, his hands were hanging by his sides, and his fists were clenched.
The second prince looked at the fifth princess's red face, and asked angrily, "Changping, she is still young, just talk well, why did she do it?"
When Cang Geng heard this, he thought to himself, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince hates the second prince the most, and this matter is not easy to end. Sure enough, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince took out the silk handkerchief, wiped his hands, and then threw the silk handkerchief away, saying, "She insulted the imperial grandmother, and as a brother, it is natural for me to teach her a lesson." ”
Cang Geng listened to the words of these two masters, and his legs trembled with fright, the fifth princess and the second prince are all the people on the tip of the emperor's heart, and now they have been wronged here by His Royal Highness the Prince. The queen and the emperor will not be like the crown prince, but those who follow the people around His Royal Highness the crown prince are afraid that they will not be able to escape. Thinking of Xuan Huang, who was injured and bedridden, he had the urge to run away at that time.
At this time, the emperor's majestic voice suddenly sounded, "I didn't expect that I gave birth to such a good son who was short-tempered and even his own sister said that he would beat him." ”
Cang Geng was completely stunned at that time, and involuntarily raised his eyes to look at the direction where the voice came from, but when he saw it, he was almost paralyzed on the ground, only to see that under the shade of the trees not far away, in the depths of the hundred flowers, the emperor and the empress were standing there together, and a large group of palace maids and attendants behind them all bowed their heads and followed with bated breath.
The fifth princess was also stunned, so she didn't react for a while in the arms of the second prince, and after seeing her father and queen mother who usually cared for her, she finally cried out loud, and broke free from the arms of the second prince and ran to the queen.
Cang Geng heard the queen's voice of gently comforting the fifth princess, and the fifth princess just whimpered and cried, thinking that the fifth princess was already in the queen's arms. Cang Geng secretly complained in his heart, his master was not raised by the queen's side since he was a child, and the love between him and the queen was only afraid that it was less than one-tenth of the love between the queen and the fifth princess. But Cang Geng and Xuan Huang, people in intimate clothing all know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still has admiration for the Queen Mother, but I am afraid that the Queen Mother's tenderness to the five princesses at this moment, and the emperor's strictness to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, will stimulate His Royal Highness the Prince.
Sure enough, after the emperor reprimanded angrily, Cang Geng didn't hear His Royal Highness the Prince's reply, but it could be seen from His Royal Highness's somewhat undulating body that he was suppressing his efforts, and Cang Geng could already imagine how His Royal Highness the Crown Prince stared at the emperor with gloomy eyes. And how could the emperor like his son to stare at him with such eyes?
In fact, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very handsome, taller than the handsome second prince, with deeper eyebrows and eyes, and more like the emperor, he should have been a very likable person, but I don't know why the look on his face always gives people a cold feeling, unlike the second prince, the whole person's behavior and speech make people feel like a spring breeze. So when the two brothers were standing together, Cang Geng thought that if I were the emperor, I would like the second prince even more. His Royal Highness the Prince, how to say it, obviously looks good, but it gives people an extremely uncomfortable feeling. It may be a problem with the aura of the whole person.
Cang Geng heard the second prince playing a round, "Father, mother, the royal brother and the fifth sister just quarreled a few words, the fifth sister is not sensible, everyone is a little disputed." ”
Cang Geng waited with bated breath for the emperor's answer, and after waiting for a while, he heard the emperor say, "You don't have to cover it up for him, I heard it all, I saw it with my own eyes, I heard it with my own ears." On weekdays, I heard that you are not friendly to your younger brothers and sisters, and I still think that someone else has slandered you, and I have defended you many times, and even reprimanded the person who said such things, but I didn't expect that they did not wronged you. ”
Cang Geng secretly complained in his heart, he had been with his master for a while, and he knew a little that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had always been very cold to his brothers and sisters, especially his compatriots. Although Cang Geng didn't understand much in his heart, he saw that the emperor and queen were so good to the second prince, the second princess, and the fifth princess on weekdays, and then looked at his master's single figure, and he still understood a little in his heart.
Now the emperor has personally seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince beat the five princesses. In any case, the fifth princess was just a six-year-old girl, and she was pampered and brought up, even if she spoke a little unobtrusively, the emperor would not blame her. But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is already fifteen years old, and the emperor has found a lot of powerful people to educate since he was a child, but he beat his six-year-old sister, and he will definitely be very disappointed in His Royal Highness the Prince.
