Chapter 212: Competitors

She understands Lie Chang'an's doubts, but the answer is actually unknown to her hometown.

"At this age, it is impossible for Concubine Shu to still be for the position of queen, which is meaningless. The crown prince's biggest rival in the East Palace is Prince Chun Weishu. ”

Lie Changan narrowed his eyes slightly, his tone was serious and calm, and he continued, "Prince Chun is the son of Concubine Shugui, and he is the eldest son of the emperor. ”

It's a pity that since the emperor of the Li Dynasty ascended the throne, he abolished the order of the eldest and youngest of the previous dynasty and changed it to 'establish the heir but not the elder', which means that only the sons born in the main palace are eligible to inherit the throne.

Therefore, although Concubine Shu gave birth to the eldest son for the emperor, but unfortunately her luck was not good, after the death of the first queen, I thought that the queen's position would fall on her head, but the emperor took the current queen into the palace and directly canonized the queen.

Concubine Shu missed the position of the queen, naturally this biological son also saw that he was missing the position of the future prince, and he fell short of a move, how could he not hold a grudge and want to use all kinds of methods to kill the prince and get rid of his son, the only competitor?

After all, as soon as the crown prince died, the queen lost her support, even if the queen was indispensable, but it may be difficult for the queen to give birth to a dragon son at this age, so looking at it, among the emperor's heirs, only Prince Chun Weishu is the most qualified person to be able to take the position of prince.

Even if the queen has the ability to give birth to a dragon son again, but the emperor has lost his beloved son, can he still have the energy to cultivate a future prince like the prince from an early age?

You must know that the crown prince has really been personally cultivated by the emperor since he was a child, and since the prince was five years old, he has been taught to handle state affairs on his behalf, and his love can be imagined.

If the emperor no longer has this energy, then the emperor himself can only grit his teeth and abide by the rule of 'establishing a successor but not a long', then he can only abolish the queen and set up Shu Guifei as the position of the middle palace, so that Wei Shu can take over the position of the crown prince in a righteous manner. The egg hurts

In this way, Concubine Shugui's wishful thinking is perfect.

won the position of queen, and helped his son to get the position of prince, and no one can threaten his son's status anymore, which can be called killing two birds with one stone.

"I understand your concerns."

The hometown nodded, "This conspiracy can't affect me, I'm a princess, and I can't threaten the crown prince." Even if she was angry with me because of my mother, there was no need to spend so much time and just want to kill me. I can't really figure out why she hates me so much. ”

It is understandable that Concubine Shu wants the life of the prince's brother, but it really doesn't make sense to be so scheming just to kill a princess who can't threaten the prince's position.

"Since I can't figure it out, I don't want to."

Lie Changan didn't want to see his hometown so troubled, let alone this kind of sad thing, no matter how vicious the other party was, he only wanted her life all the time he tried all his might, this kind of thing was not an easy topic.

Lie Changan felt even more that she was actually looking at the infinite scenery in front of people, but in fact, she was also suffering a lot of unknown pain and vulnerability, which made him feel distressed.

The hometown noticed Lie Chang'an's eyes full of pity, and couldn't help but laugh lightly, "You know what? I love you the way you are. ”

Lie Changan was stunned, almost thinking that she was starting to tease him mischievously again, but he clearly saw the sincerity in her bright eyes, which made him at a loss and nervous for a moment.
