In the luxuriously decorated palace, the prince and the third prince knelt down together and bowed to the woman who was looking up to them. There was no ambiguity in their actions, and they did not dare to be disrespectful at all.
If Jia Lian were here, he would probably be shocked by the size of his city.
The person Gein was sitting on the couch in front of the two princes was the woman he had protected from horseback!
This woman had now changed into a gorgeous and bright palace dress. She looked a little less cold than before, but a little more graceful and noble and indifferent to all living beings.
Facing the two princes' frightened confessions, she just glanced at them lightly.
Seeing this, Zhaoyang, who was beside her, knew that the Queen Mother was angry, so she immediately scolded the Prince: "Brother, you promised emphatically before that you have arranged everything properly, and no one will hit the Emperor again." Grandma, I begged the Imperial Grandmother to go with me.
Now that something like this has happened, what do you say? And if it weren’t for the great blessings of the Imperial Grandmother today, luckily nothing serious would happen. Otherwise, how would we explain to our father and Grandfather when we go back? "
Princess Zhaoyang's words clearly revealed her fear.
Indeed, it was wrong to take the Queen Mother out of the palace. If something unexpected happens to the Queen Mother, even if they are princes, they will have to shed their skin if they don't die!
Therefore, even if Princess Zhaoyang's tone was accusatory, the two princes did not dare to feel dissatisfied. Instead, they both raised their heads and glanced at the woman above them, who was the formal grandmother of all their princes and princesses!
Although the imperial grandmother still looked young, they did not dare to despise her for this.
In front of this young imperial grandmother, even their father was respectful and did not dare to show any slightness.
"Please forgive me, Grandma Huang! My grandson has found out clearly that it was a disobedient person named Youxiao who deliberately tampered with the horse that Grandma specially selected for Grandma Huang and Zhaoyang.
They added a large amount of stimulant drugs to the fodder they fed. Once the horses ate such fodder, they would fall into a manic and violent state within half an hour. It was also because of this that the purebred BMW that the imperial grandmother rode became out of control……
The grandson wanted to find out who was so bold as to murder the imperial grandmother, but he didn't know that the poisoned groom had committed suicide half an hour ago.
My grandson has asked everyone responsible for taking care of the horses to be detained. Please rest assured, the royal grandmother and the royal sister, I will definitely get to the bottom of this matter and find out the mastermind behind the scenes! "
Although the prince seemed to be reporting and defending himself, the suspicious look he always cast on the third prince clearly showed who in his heart was this bold and rebellious person.
The Queen Mother and Zhaoyang naturally followed the Crown Prince's gaze and looked at the Third Prince.
They all understood what the prince meant.
If something happens to the Queen Mother today, the Prince, as the host, will naturally not be able to escape the blame.
Once the prince loses power, the only person who may benefit is the third prince, who is not much different in age from the prince but has a good reputation among the government and the public!
The third prince's face was gloomy, and he said coldly: "What the prince said is that no matter who dares to murder the emperor's grandmother, he will be punished by Ling Chi!
I hope the prince can find out the truth as soon as possible. If the prince is busy with affairs and cannot find out the truth as soon as possible, it is better to leave this important task to his younger brother.
The younger brother promised the prince that within three days, he would get to the bottom of the matter, give an explanation to the imperial grandmother, and clear the prince's name! "
"you……"
The prince was very angry when he heard this.
What a third prince, how dare you hint in front of him that he is incompetent!
When he didn't know that the rumors that "the prince is the eldest, but his talent and moral character are inferior to the third prince" were created by him in collusion with those literati?
Bullshit virtues, bullshit talents, horse riding and archery, which one can compare with myself? You dare to talk about your talents.
Moreover, what else did he say to prove his innocence?
The implication is that now he, the dignified prince, is a suspect in murdering the Queen Mother!
What a vicious and hateful person. Does he think that everyone in the world is so stupid that they can't even understand this framed evil trick? !
How brave he is. In order to frame him, he even dared to scheme against the imperial grandmother...
The prince was shocked by the third prince's ruthlessness and unscrupulous tactics.
Seeing that the two of them were already tense in their few words, the Queen Mother waved her hand and said: "That's all, you two should get up."
"Thank you to Grandma Huang..."
"I heard that the prince has ordered martial law?
It doesn't have to be this way.
Today I left the city with Zhaoyang, and no one except a few of you knew about it.
Isn’t it puzzling that you are spending so much time now? Remove all the extra manpower.
By the way, I heard from Zhaoyang before that the prince also prepared a cultural gathering in the afternoon?
It just so happens that I want to choose a suitable husband for Zhaoyang. The two of you will help me keep an eye out for him. It is best for him to be a talented person with both civil and military skills, who is ideal and ambitious, and let me know about him. "
After hearing the Queen Mother's instructions, the two princes felt anxious.
Although the Queen Mother did not blame her at all, no one knew what she was thinking in her heart.
When they reach this stage, the only people who can decide and influence their destiny are those in the palace.
Obviously, the Queen Mother is definitely one of them.
And because of their special relationship, the Queen Mother's attitude was very important to them. Otherwise, they would not have made a special trip out of the city today to celebrate the birthday of their imperial sister Zhaoyang.
Putting aside the relationship with the Queen Mother, a royal sister may not be worthy of them.
Finally, the prince said sarcastically: "But, Grandma Huang, you are frightened. Your grandson has ordered someone to cancel the afternoon cultural gathering and prepare to escort Grandma Huang back to the city..."
Before she finished speaking, she saw the Queen Mother's eyebrows darken and she quickly changed her words: "My grandson will go down right now to make arrangements."
The Queen Mother nodded, "Well, you can go down, don't worry about me."
"yes……"
The Crown Prince and the Third Prince left the Queen Mother's temporary palace with no less anxiety than when they arrived.
After the two of them left, Zhaoyang came to the Queen Mother's side, feeling a little disinterested.
"What's wrong with you?"
Zhaoyang shook his head and said: "Royal Grandmother, do you think it was really the First Imperial Brother or the Third Imperial Brother who instigated this?
Could it be that the dispute between them has reached this stage, and in order to achieve their goal, they even dare to ignore the safety of the emperor's grandmother? "
The Queen Mother smiled faintly: "What do you think?"
Zhaoyang did not answer, so the Queen Mother taught: "Since ancient times, such things have not been uncommon in the Heavenly Family.
You come from a royal family, so you should understand better than others. Many times, when you are in a whirlpool, a single thought can lead to many situations where close relatives can kill each other..."
Seeing the disheartened look in Zhaoyang's eyes after the investigation, I knew that with her own intelligence, it wasn't that she didn't understand, but that she just wasn't willing to believe it.
So he changed his tone and said, "However, today's incident may not have been caused by the two of them."
Zhaoyang immediately asked: "Is there anyone suspicious in the Queen's heart?"
The Queen Mother only smiled and did not answer, but said: "Okay, let's not talk about this matter, let's talk about your life events.
But I agreed, this time I will choose according to the standards you gave me.
If you still give me excuses when the time comes, I will never forgive you. "
When Zhaoyang heard the Queen Mother's old talk again, she hurriedly said coquettishly: "Oh, Imperial Grandmother, why do you have to rush to marry me off? I just want to stay with Imperial Grandmother and spend more time with you... "
"You still want to deceive me? When I don't know, it's because you have too high standards and want to find someone you like?
But in this life, how can there be so much satisfaction..."
When the Queen Mother said this, there was a brief pause in her tone.
Zhaoyang also immediately realized that the great-aunt and imperial grandmother who raised him actually had many things that he didn't like...
My great aunt is actually two years younger than my mother.
Although she was not very clear about what happened back then, she knew that when her great-aunt entered the palace at the age of fourteen, the emperor's grandfather was already over sixty.
Although Grandpa Huang loved her very much and gave her everything that a woman in the world could not achieve.
Honor, status...
But as a woman, how could she not know that maybe this was not what she wanted.
The Queen Mother did not know that the girl she had raised with her own hands was going from here to there, and speculating on her inner loneliness, she continued: "It's all my fault that I spoiled you since you were a child and raised you to have such a high-minded personality.
Just in front of me, be a little more well-behaved!
I'm really worried that if you are like this, even if you are married off, your consort may not be able to stand you. "
"Look at what you said, why are people so unbearable..."
Zhaoyang completely disagreed with the Queen Mother's criticism of her.
I thought to myself, if I were asked to find my right husband, I would definitely integrate with him with the most extreme love in the world, so that the piano and the harp could sing harmoniously, and the husband would fall in love with his concubine.
It’s not what the imperial grandmother said!
As an experienced person, it was easy for the Queen Mother to see through her inner thoughts. She shook her head and stopped forcing her words again and again.
