Chapter 117: East Palace
The East Palace is the residence of the prince of a country, and only the prince can live in it.
Yongguo also has an East Palace, but no one has stayed in it all this time.
Generally speaking, the crown prince is the concubine of the queen, so once, even if Xiao Yan was Xiao Ji'an's only prince, he was not canonized as the crown prince.
Wei Rudai is the emperor's favorite concubine known to the whole country, and Xiao Ji'an's wife Li has always been a dispensable queen, she is the daughter of a Qingliu minister, there is no power in the family, neither family background, nor heirs, has been confined to the deep palace, no sense of existence.
It is rumored in the palace that the Li family will not live to be forty years old, and Concubine Xiang must be the next queen.
Xiao Yan studied poetry and etiquette, and knew that as a prince, he should ask the queen for peace.
Li is a gentle woman, beautiful, but indeed frail and sickly.
She likes children very much, every time Xiao Yan comes to greet her, she is very happy, but after Xiao Ji'an knew, she secretly said to Xiao Yan, the queen is sick, you don't have to go often, don't let her pass on the illness to you.
Li once said to him that before she died of illness, she persuaded the emperor to support Sister Wei as the empress, let him live in the East Palace, and become the crown prince.
Until that time, after Xiao Yan went to ask Li for peace, he saw Xiao Ji'an coming secretly, and Li suddenly hid him behind the screen for some reason, and told him not to make a sound.
He saw Xiao Ji soothing and touching Li's lower abdomen, and his tone was gentle that he had never heard before, and said:
"Wan'er, the imperial doctor said that our child is a boy, and when he is born, I will canonize him as the crown prince, and when he grows up, I will definitely be able to cure your illness, we will live forever, stay away from the world, and be a pair of fairy couples."
Li's voice was already angry, she seemed to glance at the screen, and said: "Your Majesty, the concubine doesn't want to live forever, and the concubine's body, I'm afraid I won't be blessed to conceive this child, the prince is the foundation of a country, Yan'er is already nine years old, you should have made him the crown prince earlier." ”
Xiao Yan was on the other side of the screen, watching this scene, and gently raised his hand, wanting to touch Xiao Ji'an.
Is there a younger brother in Lee's belly?
He's going to be a brother?
He didn't care if he could be canonized as the crown prince, he just wondered if he had been so gently caressed by his father when he was still in the womb of his mother? The mother concubine is so indifferent to him, but the father, at least he cares about him.
Then, Xiao Yan heard Xiao Ji'an's cold and gloomy voice: "That kid is a monster, how could I allow him to be the prince?" What's more, Wei Rudai is a member of the royal family of the Jin Kingdom, and my throne will only be passed on to the people of Yongguo, and it will only be given to our children, Wan'er, you don't have to say this kind of thing in the future. ”
Xiao Yan's eyes widened, and his small hand turned into a palm and covered his ears, but the voice had been imprinted into his mind, lingering no matter what, making him feel like falling into an ice cave.
Li let out a long sigh: "Okay, Your Majesty is angry, and the concubine takes good care of her body." ”
Waiting for Xiao Ji'an to leave, Li walked behind the screen and looked at Xiao Yan.
"Yan'er, you see it now, he doesn't love your mother at all, and he doesn't love you at all."
Xiao Yan was cold, and asked tremblingly: "Queen Mother, why do you want to tell me this." ”
"Because, I hope you can tell Concubine Xiang about this." Li said seriously.
Xiao Yan shook his head, recalling Wei Rudai's cold appearance towards him: "No, the concubine won't believe me, let alone ...... Maybe your father is also fake to you? ”
Li bent down and gently touched the top of Xiao Yan's hair, his eyes full of sadness and pity.
"What a clever boy, you already understand so much at such a young age, but since you said 'yes', it proves that you actually believe what I said in your heart, doesn't it?"
Li's words were like a sharp sword piercing into his heart.
"Why...... Why? Xiao Yan still asked in a low voice, his amber eyes were covered with a layer of mist, confused and gray.
Why did the mother hate him so much? Don't see him? Why does the usually gentle father also say that he is a monster?
He was obviously very well-behaved, obediently took medicine, obediently injured, obediently listened to his father's words, and lived in that dark room.
Li stood up and looked in one direction.
That's the direction of the palace gate.
She said slowly, seriously: "Because, I have already seen that he is a madman, because, I hate him!" ”
She didn't care if Xiao Yan understood, but later, Xiao Yan understood.
When the child in the womb of the Empress Li was seven months old, Xiao Jixing assassinated Xiao Ji'an, killed his brother and usurped the throne, and led troops to break into the palace.
Xiao Jixing personally led a team of tiger soldiers to the queen's palace as soon as possible.
But what he saw was the queen's already cold corpse.
She was killed by the eunuch next to her, with a wound in the abdomen, one corpse, two lives.
Xiao Jixing looked up to the sky and roared, calling "Wan'er" in grief.
At that time, Xiao Yan understood why the Li family would say that Xiao Ji'an was a madman.
……
The East Palace of Yongguo is empty.
The East Palace of the Jin Kingdom is full of countless bloodshed and contention.
In the East Palace of Yan State, the first thing Chu Tingxiao, the emperor of Yan State, did when he ascended the throne four years ago was to canonize the second prince Chu Ye as the crown prince, and then Chu Ye lived in the East Palace.
So far, the prince has both ability and political integrity, and his reputation is far and wide, from civil and military officials to pawns in the countryside, all praise them for having a good prince.
"There is no need to say polite words to this palace," Chu Ye looked at Xiao Yan in front of him, "Xiao Gongzi was only a little short of this position back then, and this palace is no different from you except for the country." ”
"Okay, then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince might as well take a look at these."
Xiao Yan nodded, calmly took out the case documents that recorded the evidence of the Fan family's crimes, and after handing them to Chu Ye, he subconsciously straightened his back.
This young man is the princess's brother.
Chu Ye was very surprised when he learned that Xiao Yan had come to the East Palace to look for him, and he always felt that this person was deep in his mind and didn't want to intersect with him.
As soon as Chu Ye thought of Chu Yi's attitude towards him, his temples jumped suddenly.
If he weren't for the fact that he was a calm and self-controlled prince, he would definitely drive Xiao Yan out of the East Palace, and it was best to drive him out of Shangjing, so that Chu Yi would never have contact with this dangerous teenager again!
But he was a calm and wise man, and he decided to endure it for a while.
Chu Ye took the thick stack of documents, turned the first page, and his pupils suddenly contracted.
Xiao Yan stood beside him, looking at the prince's study.
The study room is arranged simply and elegantly, the files on the table are also neatly placed, and there is a plaque with gold characters on a black background hanging on the back wall, which reads "and light and dust", which should be given by the royal pen himself.
Chu Ye looked at these evidence of the Fan family's guilt and took a deep breath, indicating that his heart was not at peace.
He sat back in his chair and looked at them one by one, not missing a word.
After the time of a stick of incense passed, Chu Ye raised his head: "Young Master Xiao, this palace will not ask you where you found these things, but want to know, why do you want to check these things." ”
