"Mama, I really didn't expect that Xie Yanhe was going to enter the East Palace." Chen Rong's expression was dazed for a moment.

Mama Chen's face was solemn, and she said, "Niangniang, this matter is that we have been used. Maybe the people behind the scenes want you to have a quarrel with His Royal Highness the Prince, so that the fishermen can benefit from it. ”

"Mama, who do you think will be the master behind the euonymus?"

Chen Rong couldn't understand why Weimao betrayed himself when he said nothing about the splendid future that he could see at a glance in the East Palace, except for Mama Chen.

"Niangniang, the euonymus spear is the person pointed out to you by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince after you entered the palace. Think about Zhang Desong next to His Royal Highness the Prince, although he is very respectful to you on the surface, but he has been dissatisfied with you for a long time in private, and the slave suspects that it is Zhang Desong, the eunuch, who framed you! ”

Mama Chen thought of the eye medicine that Zhang Desong had given to her mother in front of His Royal Highness the Prince, although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not take it to heart and did not have any impact on the Crown Princess, Mama Chen remembered it in her heart and regarded Zhang Desong as the Crown Princess's number one enemy.

Chen Rong bit her lip and looked puzzled: "If I fall out with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, what good will it do to Zhang Desong?" ”

"Niangniang, you sit in the position of the crown princess, and His Royal Highness the crown prince is infatuated with you, I don't know how many people are jealous." Mama Chen looked at the crown princess with extremely pitiful eyes, and she said softly: "But it is useless for them to be jealous, Niangniang is the most blessed woman in the world." ”

"Crown Princess, Mama Chen, something is wrong." Yinping hurriedly broke into the dormitory.

"What are you doing in such a hurry! I'm not afraid of bumping into my mother. Mama Chen scolded at the silver screen.

Yinping stopped her steps when she heard this, her expression was still difficult to hide her panic, and she said urgently: "Back to the princess, the little Wu father-in-law next to His Royal Highness the prince has just handed over the news, and His Royal Highness the prince has agreed to His Majesty's request, and will accept two side concubines into the door in the near future." ”

"What!" Chen Rong stood up directly from the couch, if it weren't for Mama Chen holding her steadily, she almost hit the head of the bed with a flower in front of her.

"How could it be...... How could my cousin do this to me! Chen Rong had an unbelievable look on her face, as if the sky was about to fall.

"My cousin obviously confronted Your Majesty for me a few days ago, and my cousin was even smashed on the forehead by Your Majesty. The wound on his forehead has not healed yet...... Chen Rong muttered, her eyes that had just lost focus lit up again, and her tone was firm: "You must have heard it wrong, my cousin would never treat me like this." ”

"Yes, Yinping, is there any misunderstanding in this?" Not to mention the crown princess, even Mama Chen didn't believe Yinping's words.

The crown princess has not come out for three years, whether it is His Majesty or the previous dynasty, the pressure on His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very great. But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince carried everything down for the sake of the Crown Princess. How can you change your mind so easily now?

"It's true." When Yinping first heard the news, it was like five thunderbolts, and the whole person was not good. But now, she had calmed down.

"The crown princess, the slave maid even inquired about the two candidates for the side concubines in the East Palace. Your Majesty has no intention of hiding it at all. ”

Chen Rong's face turned white, and she lost her mind and said, "No...... I don't believe it...... My cousin wouldn't do that to me! ”

Two lines of tears rolled down her cheeks, as if dripping on the hearts of Mama Chen and Yinping.

Yinping lowered his head a little reluctantly, and after a while, he said softly: "Niangniang, don't mess with yourself." What Yinping didn't dare to say was that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was already unreliable, if the mother herself couldn't stand up again, where could she have a better time in the future!

"Mother, mother!" Mama Chen hurriedly held the cold fingertips of the crown princess, but saw that the crown princess was all wooden, and she didn't react at all.

Mama Chen was shocked, let go of the crown princess's hand, and hurriedly turned out a jade bottle from under the pillow, poured out two pills, and fed them into the princess's mouth.

The two slightly bitter pills melted on Chen Rong's fingertips, and her face had a little vitality, Chen Rong felt the bitterness on the tip of her tongue, and couldn't help but grab Mama Chen's hand hard. It seems that only by grasping Mama Chen can she live with the strength to continue to hold on.

"Who are the two side concubines?" Chen Rong's teeth kept chattering, and her hands and feet were even colder.

Yinping's eyes were sour, she held back the tears in her eyes, and said in a low voice: "One is a side branch of the Duke of Chu, the daughter of Chu Dianshi, the son of the country, Chu Dianshi, whose name is Chu Linglong, who is seventeen years old and is the daughter of the family; There is also one from Jiangnan, it is said that the family is an imperial businessman, and the girl's name is Wu Bijun, although the family background is not obvious, and he is a businessman, but it is said that he is the righteous daughter of the county lord of Jinghua. ”

"County Lord Jinghua?" Mama Chen was taken aback, and then scolded: "This slut at both ends of the snake and rat! ”

"Why should Mama be angry?" Chen Rong showed a sad smile on her face, and her tone was full of self-deprecation: "I'm afraid that this matter has been going on for a long time, but it's just hiding it from me." ”

Mourning is greater than heart death! Chen Rong didn't expect that after losing her father and brother, even her cousin betrayed her!

She stared blankly at the lilac roof above her head, the corners of her lips curling very slowly. My cousin once failed Xie Yanhe for himself, and now, my cousin has also failed himself, is this retribution?

But if it's retribution, why not retribution on her alone. What's wrong with the father? What's wrong with the Chen family?!

"Mother, mother...... Listen to me. The smile on Chen Rong's face, which was even uglier than crying, broke Mama Chen's heart.

Mama Chen held the crown princess's hand hard, and said solemnly: "Niangniang, the slave maid will help you enter the palace with the imperial doctor of Xuanjiang, and say that you are sick." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not be so ruthless! ”

"Mama, it's too late." Chen Rong tried hard to recall Wei Jin's expression just now, he covered it up so well, he didn't even let himself find a flaw. Chen Rong smiled miserably: "Haha, haha......"

In the middle of the emotional turmoil, Chen Rong's throat was sweet, and she actually spurted out a mouthful of blood. The East Palace was suddenly in chaos.

……

The Qianyuan Hall was calm. Xie Yanhe had enough trouble, leaning on the pillow and falling asleep, her long eyelashes were slightly constricted, leaving two fan-shaped shadows on her quiet and white face like pear blossoms, and her cheeks were like peach blossoms in March, with tears on them, revealing a state of Chu Chu.

Wei Zhao quietly looked at Xie Yanhe's sleeping face for a while, kissed her on the cheeks with pity, relaxed his steps, and walked out of the dormitory.

As soon as Wei Zhao stepped into the main hall, Jun Yi's face immediately became gloomy, where was there still a little bit of gentleness, his eyebrows were cold, his ink eyes were cold, and the whole person was like a lion with open fangs, and the momentum around him was chilling.

"What about Feng Ying?"

"The minions are here!" Feng Ying trotted in from outside the main hall, arrived in front of the emperor, and hurriedly knelt down on one knee: "Back to Your Majesty, everyone has been controlled." ”

Wei Zhao flicked the sleeves of his robe, and commanded in a cold tone: "Lead the way!" ”

Jiang Liuqu was already waiting outside the hall, and when he saw the emperor coming out, he hurriedly followed.

Wei Zhao walked in front and went in the direction of the harem.

……

In the Linhua Palace, after Princess Yichang gave incense to her biological mother, she walked to the window, looked at the lush plantain outside the window, her eyes were sour, and a tear flowed.

Seeing this, the palace people around Princess Yichang hurriedly persuaded: "Your Royal Highness Princess, you have been crying for several days, but you can't cry anymore." If you continue to cry like this, your eyes will break. Even if the mother is under Jiuquan, she will feel distressed. ”

"Xiaoshuang, you don't have to say good and obedient words to persuade me. Where does my mother care about me and my sister? Princess Yichang pursed the corners of her lips, and the pain in her eyes flashed.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, how can there be parents in this world who don't feel sorry for their children? Between you and Niangniang, the misunderstanding is too deep. ”

Although Xiaoshuang also felt that Hui Guiren's mother was very incompetent, Hui Guiren seemed to have become a knot in Princess Yichang's heart, and Xiaoshuang could only try her best to relieve Princess Yichang, so as not to make Princess Yichang fall into a heart problem.

"Xiaoshuang, if the mother concubine really thinks about me and my sister, how could she do such a thing! Since I was a child, my father gave me and my sister protection, although we are not as favored as the eldest sister, but we are also worry-free and unbullied. And...... And I also got engaged to the second son of the Du family. ”

Princess Yichang's heart unexpectedly flashed with the young man's graceful figure, and her heart was sour, and she burst into tears.

Since the accident of the concubine, Du Huiming has sent fewer things to the palace, and even the future sister-in-law Du Minyi has not only been estranged from her, but has not entered the palace for several days.

"Xiaoshuang, why did the mother concubine do such a thing! Doesn't she know...... Is my father the one my sister and I rely on? The more Princess Yichang thought about it, the more sad she became, she didn't understand why her mother would take such an extreme path!

Although my mother no longer has love, my father has never treated my mother badly! As a result, the mother concubine wanted to put her father to death, which made Princess Yichang embarrassed!

Princess Yichang said mumudi: "Xiaoshuang, do you know? I sometimes even wonder if my sister and I had stood by and let Madame Choi kill her, would none of this have happened? ”

Princess Yichang covered her cheeks and let the tears slip from her fingers.

Princess Yichang also knew that her thoughts were very undeserved, but she couldn't help but hate Hui Guiren! As the daughter of a prisoner, even if it is a golden branch and jade leaf! She didn't dare to imagine that once she lost her father's favor, what would happen to her life in the Du family in the future! Her aunt, Princess Chunyi, is a lesson from her!

"Your Royal Highness Princess, it will be fine, don't worry, it will be fine." Xiaoshuang hurriedly took out a clean silk handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped her tears for Princess Yichang.

"Your Royal Highness, Your Majesty has arrived! Your Royal Highness Princess, hurry up and meet you! The palace maid Qiuyi rushed into the hall with a look of surprise.

"Father?! Are you saying that my father has come to see me? Princess Yichang wiped the tears from her face carelessly, and her eyes were full of disbelief.

"Your Royal Highness, you heard you right. Your Majesty is about to arrive at the Linhua Palace, so go out and greet you. ”

Qiuyi's face was beaming, and he felt that the haze of many days had been swept away. His Majesty has come to see the princess, and she wants to see if those villains will dare to say sour things behind their backs in the future.

"Xiaoshuang, can you see if my hair is messy? What about the eyes? Did you see it crying? "Princess Yichang used to be very casual in front of her father and never cared about her appearance, but today, she attaches great importance to her appearance.

"Oh, my Royal Highness the princess, it's too late for the time block, you can go out with the slave maid." Qiuyi was amused and sad at the same time, she stomped her foot and quipped, "You're fine now." ”

Princess Yichang took a deep breath and lifted the corner of her skirt and walked out of the hall, but before she reached the entrance of the hall, she slowed down her pace, feeling a sense of gain and loss.

Princess Yichang came to the palace with trepidation, and as soon as she raised her eyes, she saw the figure of her father, still as she remembered, tall and straight, like an unshakable mountain, surrounded by a strong imperial majesty.

Princess Yichang hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Erchen pays a visit to his father, and his father is blessed with Jin'an." ”

"Get up." Wei Zhao's expression was faint, but his cold tone revealed a touch of gentleness.

Seeing this, Feng Ying hurriedly stepped forward, helped Princess Yichang up, and said respectfully: "Your Royal Highness Princess, you don't have to make this big gift next time." ”

Princess Yichang nodded flatteredly, and looked at her father with a somewhat timid gaze.

Wei Zhao didn't feel much before he came, but now looking at his daughter's frightened state, his thoughts were suddenly complicated.

His cold heart was soft, and he couldn't help but say: "If there is something missing in the hall, tell Feng Ying or Kong Siquan, don't bend yourself too much." ”

Princess Yichang was stunned, her eyes were hot, and tears fell instantly, she quickly turned her head away, and it took a while to stabilize her mood.

Princess Yichang said in a dumb voice: "The son has thanked his father. ”

"Come into the temple and speak." Wei Zhao sighed in his heart and walked into the Linhua Palace.

Wei Zhao has not been to this palace several times since he ascended the throne. He was not familiar with the layout of the palace, and he did not have any feelings for the owner of the palace.

But Yichang and Duanmin are different, the two daughters are his blood, although he doesn't love them, but he must take the responsibility of being a father, it can be said that it is because of these two daughters that Wei Zhaocai has a bond with the owner of this palace, but that's all.

"What about Duanmin? Why didn't you see her? ”

Wei Zhao sat down on the Taishi chair, his majestic and indifferent gaze swept around the hall, and he didn't see the figure of his little daughter.

Princess Yichang poured a cup of tea for her father, and when she heard her father mention her sister, she hurriedly said: "Back to my father, Duan Min may have gone to play in the imperial garden again." ”

Although Princess Yichang was not sure where her sister was, she still helped to make up in front of her father. She secretly glanced at the palace people behind her, and when she saw the palace people quietly retreating, she suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

Since the death of her mother, my sister has become very eccentric, and she does not see anyone every day, and she refuses to say anything when she asks her. Of course, Princess Yichang didn't dare to let her father know, otherwise, wouldn't it mean that her sister resented her father because of her mother's affairs.

"Jiang Liuqu, you go and take a look." Wei Zhao said calmly as if he hadn't seen the eyebrow lawsuit between Princess Yichang and the palace maid.

Princess Yichang's heart tightened, and her whole heart hung up.

"Is Duan Min running out a lot these days? She's older too. Although the daughter of the royal family does not need to be a female celebrity, the official family director always has to learn. Wei Zhao took a sip of the tea in the cup and quietly observed the subtle changes in Princess Yichang's face.

Princess Yichang breathed a sigh of relief for a moment. It turned out that her father was just caring about Duan Min, but she was still doubting her father's intentions just now, which was really undeserved.

Princess Yichang secretly thought: In the recent times, she has been too grassy and woody.

"Father, Duan Min is just a little playful." Princess Yichang hurriedly said good things for her sister.

His future has been decided, but his sister's marriage has not yet been settled, at this time, he must not let his father feel that his sister is ignorant.

Princess Yichang cautiously looked at her father's complexion, and said with a well-behaved face: "But don't worry, Father, Duanmin is very smart and can learn everything as soon as she learns it." In the future, Erchen must restrain her well and let her learn the rules well. ”

Wei Zhao felt a sigh in his heart, his little daughter was too smart. Outsmart oneself!

"Yichang, I have asked the Ministry of Rites to start preparations, and the marriage between you and the Du family will be done at the end of the year."

Wei Zhao originally wanted to keep this daughter until she was seventeen years old before marrying, but now it seems that this daughter can't be kept.

When Princess Yichang heard this, she instantly stood on the spot.

At the age of sixteen, the eldest imperial sister married the prince of Chu State. The father originally planned to keep the eldest imperial sister until she was eighteen years old, but the eldest imperial sister herself couldn't wait. But when it came to himself, his father was thinking about marrying himself off now!

I'm only fourteen years old! Does the father not want to see his daughter like this? Intellectually speaking, Princess Yichang can accept her father's decision, after all, her biological mother committed the crime of killing the king! But emotionally, Princess Yichang couldn't get over this hurdle in her heart. My heart was sore and painful for a moment, and I was extremely sad!

After a long time, Princess Yichang said numbly: "Erchen obeys the holy decree of his father. If you listen carefully, you will find that Princess Yichang's voice is trembling.

After a stick of incense, Princess Duanmin followed Jiang Liuqu and entered the Linhua Palace, and she saluted: "The son sees his father." ”

"No courtesy." Wei Zhao's pair of clear and sharp ink eyes looked at Princess Duanmin from top to bottom, and he said casually, "Where did you go to play?" Do you know that Yichang has been worried about you? ”

Princess Duanmin lowered her long eyelashes and said timidly: "Erchen missed his mother, so he went to Ruihe Garden, where his mother used to go before she was sick. ”

"Imperial sister, what nonsense are you talking about! The mother concubine is to blame! She doesn't deserve it! Princess Yichang couldn't help but raise her voice in a hurry, and her mouth was secretly bitter. Why are my sisters so confused, how can they mention their mother concubine in front of their father!
