After Li Jingxiao went out, Li Zetian said to Li Yu next to him: "Send someone to get an inkstone."
He will not really let one son subsidize another son, and he will definitely make compensation afterwards.
Li Jingxing raised his eyebrows.
It seems that Chiyang is right. Playing the role of brother well can win the favor of his father.
Li Zetian was in a good mood at the moment, and it was rare that he was in the mood to mention a few words about Li Jingxing. The father and son were talking and laughing, and they were enjoying themselves for a while.
After a cup of tea, Li Jingxing said: "I still have some things to deal with, so I will keep you here soon. Go to Changchun Palace to see your mother."
"My son, please retire."
On the way to Changchun Palace, Li Jingxing was preoccupied and didn't speak from the beginning to the end. Chiyang's thoughts also drifted a little far.
[The imperial uncle asked the princes to train each other and try to select the best heir, but in the end he chose a person with doubtful blood. What a headache! 】
Li Jingxing's steps stagnated, but Chiyang didn't notice and kept walking forward.
[Unfortunately, in the last life, the short-lived ghost only found out that there was something wrong with the fourth prince's background, but did not find out the identity of the adulterer, otherwise this matter would have been much easier to handle. 】
[I will have to ask my father and eldest brother for help later to investigate this soft concubine. 】
Li Jingxing suppressed the turmoil in his heart and followed quickly.
[I’m going to see my aunt soon, and I’ll be asked later why I didn’t consummate the marriage with the short-lived ghost. Can I tell her that the short-lived ghost is not in good health? 】
Li Jingxing grinded his teeth until they made a clicking sound.
[This reason doesn’t make sense, because the short-lived ghosts will soon fill the backyard, and the concubines and concubines will be carried into the house one by one. There is no reason why it works for them but not for me. 】
[Forget it, let’s tell my aunt about my plan to make peace, and wait for my aunt to lay a foreshadowing in front of the emperor’s uncle, so that it will be easier for her to do things in the future. 】
Chiyang arrived at Changchun Palace after thinking about it. Queen Chi's confidant, the nun, had been waiting at the gate of the courtyard for a long time. When she saw them arriving, she happily greeted them.
"Your Highness, Crown Princess, Your Majesty, I have been waiting for you for a long time!"
Seeing his grandma's happy look, Li Jingxing immediately thought of Queen Chi's eager look in the palace. The scene in his dream last night could not help but appear in his mind, and he felt sour in his heart.
How stupid he was to listen to the slanderous words and question his mother's intentions. He should be damned!
Queen Chi sat on the phoenix chair and looked up eagerly. When she saw Li Jingxing and Chiyang walking in, her excitement and joy were beyond words. Her eyes first fell on Li Jingxing's face, a hint of sadness flashed in her eyes, then she looked at Chiyang and said kindly : "No need to be polite, sit down quickly."
Even so, the two of them still bowed according to the rules.
"My son, I have met my mother, and my mother may be blessed and safe!"
"sit down."
Li Jingxing and Chiyang sat down one after another. Queen Chi knew that her adopted son's opinion of her had become more and more serious in recent years, and she had forced her to let her adoptive son marry her maternal niece. Now she might have even greater opinions on her.
She was afraid that what she said would make Li Jingxing unhappy again, so she only talked to Chiyang. Whenever she met Li Jingxing, she always looked like he was hesitant to speak. After saying a few unfamiliar and polite words, she said to Li Jingxing: "Okay. Son, if you have other things to handle, just let Yang'er stay with me for a while."
Li Jingxing had a problem in his heart. He wanted to tell Queen Chi that he didn't want to leave, but he always loved saving face. It was a bit embarrassing for him to admit his mistake to Queen Chi in front of such a person. He thought it would take a long time anyway, so he could figure it out later. .
Chiyang also wanted to talk to Empress Chi about something from her heart, and wished Li Jingxing could get out of the way quickly.
[Go away, go away, you go away so that I can discuss the divorce with my aunt, and then let my aunt consider severing the relationship between mother and son with you, whether you, a short-lived ghost, will live or die in the future. 】
Li Jingxing clenched the hands in his sleeves tightly and gave a very forced smile: "Mother, I haven't had a good conversation with my mother for a long time. I have nothing to do today, so I am here to accompany my mother."
Queen Chi was a little surprised when she saw him say this, but she thought that maybe it was difficult to leave due to the situation, but she still felt comfortable.
"Husband and wife are one body with honor and disgrace. You should support each other and tolerate each other in the future, and don't create barriers because of unnecessary misunderstandings."
Li Jingxing used to feel bored and harsh when he heard this kind of thing, but today he felt guilty and moved at the same time.
The queen mother regards herself as her own child, so she will nag her tirelessly.
"My sons, please remember your mother's teachings."
Chiyang looked at Li Jingxing strangely.
[This bitch took the wrong medicine today, why is everything so weird? 】
Li Jingxing tried his best to ignore the disturbing voice in his mind.
Queen Chi was also puzzled by her adopted son's performance today, but she didn't look into it in detail. Maybe he was just showing off a loving mother and a filial piety to the emperor.
Having said that, knowing how to hide and disguise is a good thing.
While they were talking, a palace official came in to report that the fourth princess, Li Jinyan, was here.
Li Jinyan is thirteen years old. She is pretty and lively.
When Li Jinyan was three years old, her biological mother died of illness. Empress Chi took pity on her and raised her by her side. However, she was not recorded in Empress Chi's name, so she was still considered a concubine.
Li Jingxing felt that Li Jinyan was unsteady, so he had no good impression of Li Jinyan, the sister who was also raised in front of Queen Chi, and subconsciously frowned.
Seeing his disgusted look, Chiyang couldn't help but start complaining in her heart.
【The short-lived ghost who knows no good and bad things! Although your aunt saved your life with her death in the previous life, the imperial uncle still wanted to demote you to a commoner. In order to retain your position as the prince, Jinyan took the initiative to ask Ying to marry in Mobei. Later, the fourth prince wanted to lure the eldest prince. He provoked a border war with Mobei. On the eve of the war, the Mobei people actually killed Jinyan Jiqi! 】
[No, no, this time I advise my aunt to find a good marriage for Jin Yan as soon as possible, and never again serve as a stepping stone for a short-lived ghost like you! 】
Li Jingxing was drinking tea. When he "heard" Chiyang's words, his hand shook and the tea cup immediately hit the ground.
Queen Chi's face turned pale, and Nanny Lin reacted quickly. While hinting the palace maid to clean up, she said with a smile: "Peace in pieces, peace in every year, a good sign."
Queen Chi nodded and said, "That makes sense."
Li Jingxing's heart was filled with ups and downs, and he could not calm down for a long time.
While he was stunned, a pretty girl in a bright yellow dress walked in happily.
"My son has met his mother, his brother the prince, and his sister-in-law."
Seeing her adopted daughter, Queen Chi smiled and said relaxedly: "They are all family members, Yan'er doesn't need to be polite, just sit down."
Li Jinyan sat next to Chi Luan and joked: "Sister-in-law, I will go to the Prince's Mansion to play with you in the future!"
Chiyang and Li Jinyan had a close relationship and were like sisters. Before she got married, Li Jinyan often went to Chi Mansion to play with her.
Chiyang quickly looked at Li Jingxing.
