Chapter 289: The Innocent Prince Leaves the Abyss
"But the prince, you have to persuade the emperor, abolishing the prince is not a trivial matter, it is likely to shake the country's foundation, now that the prince has been abolished, how many people in the harem are starting to move, haven't you thought about it?"
Chi Lu's worries, how could Bai Yan not think of it, it was precisely because of this that he did not persuade the emperor at this juncture.
It has been four years since the crown prince was canonized, so how could Uncle Zongshu ask Concubine Liliang to be the queen at this time for no reason?
Behind this is probably not as simple as it seems.
"Don't worry, Xiangye, the emperor is angry, if this king goes to persuade the emperor now, the emperor will definitely be even more angry, and when the time comes, the prince will suffer even more."
Bai Yan opened his mouth, patted Chi Lu's shoulder soothingly, and said, "This king will go to see Yuan'er first, this matter, this king knows how to deal with it, Xiangye will go back first." β
After speaking, he turned around and walked in the direction of the Prince's East Palace.
And Chi Lu originally wanted to say something, but since Bai Yan said so, he had no choice but to give up, believing that the sixth prince would definitely make proper arrangements and decisions.
Prince East Palaceββ
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, can you eat something first?"
In the East Palace, palace maids and eunuchs of all sizes knelt on the ground, begging the silent little prince in front of them, and everyone's brows were twisted into a ball because of the emperor's edict in the morning.
Li Bai Yan walked to the door of the East Palace, and his eyes quickly caught Prince Liyuan, who was sitting on the stone steps of the courtyard silently without saying a word, and his brows furrowed.
Ti Bu stepped forward, and he called in a low voice, "Yuan'er." β
When the little prince, who had been silent, heard this familiar voice, he immediately raised his head, and his dark eyes melted into a bit of bright color.
Immediately stood up from the stone steps and ran towards Bai Yan, his small body looked a little pitiful.
"Uncle Six Emperors."
In the immature voice, there was a heavy nasal voice, which came from Xiao Liyuan's mouth, which sounded particularly distressing.
Li Bai Yan squatted down in front of him, looking at this little face as good-looking as his mother, a trace of distress flashed in his eyes.
But at the age of seven, he is about to become a victim in the open and secret battle of the harem, what about the prince, isn't he innocently implicated?
"Uncle Sixth Emperor, my father ordered the mother concubine to be sent to the cold palace, and Yuan'er wants the mother concubine."
Liyuan's voice was full of crying, but at a young age, he had a stubbornness and dignity that others did not have, even if he was afraid, he couldn't bear to cry.
"Yuan'er, listen to Uncle Huang's words, go to dinner first, and after eating, Uncle Huang will take you to see your mother again, okay?"
In the Nanjiang Kingdom, the crown prince is supposed to be the eldest son of the emperor, and the late former queen has no heirs, and the crown prince Liyuan, born to Concubine Liang, is the third son of the emperor.
Because of his extraordinary talent, coupled with the bearing and posture of other princes who can't look down on him since he was a child, as early as when he was three years old, Li Yunzhao put aside the tradition of standing tall and not young, and made the third son of the three-year-old emperor Li Yuan the crown prince.
In addition to making his father like him, several uncles also liked him, because Li Bai Yan and Li Yunzhao were brothers of the same father and mother, so the relationship between Li Yuan and Li Bai Yan, the sixth uncle, was even closer.
Now hearing what Li Baiyan said, Xiao Liyuan was naturally overjoyed, and immediately obediently under the leadership of the palace maid, he quickly ate.
