The second prince Luo Chen also.
Son of Concubine Wen, 12 years old.
"Little Yaozi, come on, come on, serve me and dress me up. I am going to see my father. My father dotes on my mother and concubine the most and will never watch the queen humiliate my mother and concubine."
The second prince was shocked and angry.
A fierce look flashed across his narrow triangular eyes, and he roared angrily at the kneeling eunuch Xiao Yazi.
The little Yaozi looked embarrassed and gritted his teeth.
"Second Prince, not only the imperial concubine was arrested by the queen, but also all the maids, eunuchs, and guards in the imperial concubine's palace were imprisoned in the sky prison by the emperor."
"What?"
The second prince was suddenly startled, his slender cheeks instantly became bloodless, and his lips trembled uncontrollably.
"Mother, is she..." exposed?
He knew very well what kind of person his mother-in-law was, and he even knew that he was not his father's biological son.
If only the fact that his mother-in-law was sleeping with other men was known to his father, he might still be able to escape, but if his father knew that he was not his child...
Then, he will be doomed.
The second prince's thoughts were not changing, and he quickly got out of bed and held down the little Yaozi's shoulders.
"What should I do, the prince? My mother and concubine have been arrested. Will my father send people to arrest the prince soon? Little Yaozi, please think of a solution quickly. What should I do now?"
A twelve-year-old child, even if he is usually cruel and vicious, will not be able to help him at all if something really happens.
From childhood to adulthood, he was almost always pampered by Concubine Wen. He got whatever he wanted, and the eunuchs and maids allowed him to beat and scold him. Even if he killed a person, Concubine Wen would clap and applaud him.
Tsk tsk, someone like the second prince is cruel, arrogant, talentless, ambitious, only interested in eating, drinking and having fun, and will lose his temper at every turn and want to beat or kill someone.
If you ascend to the emperor.
This is the real sorrow of Tianqi Kingdom.
The little eunuch was extremely speechless. He was just a little eunuch. How could he take care of his master's affairs?
"Second Prince, please don't worry. The Emperor has not sent anyone to arrest you. I think you are safe now.
Do you think this is good?
You should rest first, and wait until early tomorrow morning to go see the Queen and ask her to let you see the Imperial Concubine, and ask the Imperial Concubine to give you an idea in person. "
The second prince felt restless and couldn't wait any longer. He snorted coldly and pushed the little boy away.
"Useless trash, what does this prince want from you? It's useless at the critical moment. Call me and wait. How can you call me and wait in the long night?"
The little Yaozi knelt on the ground silently, trying his best to reduce his sense of existence.
The second prince has always been domineering.
Now when he encounters something that makes him anxious but at a loss what to do, he only loses his temper, and gets furious.
Gritting his teeth, he fiercely pulled out the whip hanging on the bedside.
"Pa bang bang..."
He beat the little boy hard, with such force that it seemed like he was going to be beaten to death.
The little Yaozi screamed and begged, "Second Prince, please don't beat me. If you beat this slave to death, there will be no one left to run for you."
The second prince made a move.
Thinking about it, he originally had many servants to serve him, but a few days ago his grandfather was ransacked and beheaded. His father was so furious that he and his mother's food and clothing expenses were reduced by more than half.
Nowadays, he has five or six slaves serving him, but the only available slave is Xiao Yaozi.
If nothing happened to his mother and concubine, he wouldn't need to worry about these things at all. All his food and clothing would be taken care of by his mother and concubine.
“Ahhhhh, damn it, the queen is damned!
Didn’t she close the palace door tightly and never leave the world?
Why did you suddenly attack your mother and concubine?
Why didn't she die earlier? "
The second prince was so angry that he whipped the furnishings in the room with his whip. The crackling sound accompanied by his angry curses kept ringing in the room.
The little boy huddled in the corner, not daring to say anything, let alone to persuade the second prince to restrain himself.
It's no use trying to persuade him anyway.
Let him die as much as he wants!
The movement in the second prince's room soon woke up the fifth prince who lived next door to him.
The fifth prince Luo Chenqing.
The son of Concubine Wen is seven years old this year.
He has been weak since birth and has been sick all year round. He is not liked by Concubine Wen Guifei, who left him to be cared for by slaves since he was a child.
His treatment was on par with that of the second prince, and even the second prince, the elder brother, disliked him extremely.
Whenever he was in a bad mood, he would bring his slaves to his door to humiliate him. Beating and scolding were also common.
Fortunately, he took the fifth prince's status into consideration and did not deal harshly with him. Otherwise, according to his weak body, the fifth prince would have been tortured to death long ago.
One can imagine.
The fifth prince's life is not easy. He is obviously a prince, but his life is even harder than that of ordinary children.
The fifth prince opened his big dark eyes, coughed slightly, and asked weakly in a hoarse voice: "Anhe, what's going on next door?"
An He, the personal eunuch, quickly lit the candle and reached out to touch the fifth prince's forehead. He found that the temperature was normal and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he reassured with a smile.
"Fifth Prince, it must be that the Second Prince has something wrong with him and lost his temper in the middle of the night. You are young and have poor health. Go to bed first. When you get up tomorrow, I will bring you your favorite sweet-scented osmanthus cake. How are you?"
Osmanthus cake! (◦˙▽˙◦)
The fifth prince couldn't help but lick his chapped lips, but when he thought of his situation, his bright eyes gradually darkened.
"But the imperial kitchen will not give the fifth prince the osmanthus cake."
He has a weak body and is always in need of medicine.
He was neither favored by his father nor his mother and concubines. People in the palace had always looked up to him and looked down on him. As he grew older, he had long seen his situation clearly.
One day is a day to live.
Try not to cause trouble.
An He looked at the lost and sad expression of the fifth prince, and couldn't help but feel a sore nose and a red eye.
He knew that although his little master was young, he was sensitive and intelligent, so he took a deep breath and held back the tears in his eyes.
Grinning his lips, he said with a smile: "Fifth Prince, you can sleep peacefully. I promise that you can eat the sweet-scented osmanthus cake you have been longing for next morning."
The fifth prince frowned, feeling anxious. He quickly stretched out his little hand and grabbed An He's right hand.
"No, An He, I don't want sweet-scented osmanthus cake. Don't beg others for me. You are the person I care about most in my life. I don't want anything to happen to you, let alone lose you."
As he spoke, the fifth prince's eyes filled with tears.
When he was young, he was ignorant. Every time he drank medicine, his mouth felt bitter and he just wanted to eat sweet cakes, so he shouted for cakes.
Anhe in order to satisfy his request.
He knelt down and begged the eunuchs in his mother's palace, but he was humiliated in various ways by them. They forced him to crawl under their crotch, kneeled on the ground and licked their shoes...etc., and what was even more outrageous was that they also forced An He to drink. their urine.
He never thought about it.
How could the eunuchs in the palace be so vicious?
You don't need to think about it to know that it must have been the mother and concubine who had spoken, so they dared to humiliate An He so unscrupulously.
