What Concubine Gu and King Chen said next, King Chen didn't pay much attention to, he just kept thinking in his mind that Rong Cang was not his father's child, and he was not qualified to inherit the throne...
If the father knew about this, he would be the first to get rid of Rong Cang.
But King Chen quickly thought of a fatal key point.
"Concubine, even if Rong Cang's life experience is revealed in the future, you must never say that you were never pregnant." King Chen came back to his senses and said quickly, "If the father knew that you had deceived him, he would be furious and deceive the king. We can't afford the crime. The mother-in-law will say when the time comes... Just say that this child has been switched. You have been secretly searching for the truth these years, but Po Wen, who delivered the baby back then - "
"The Wen women who delivered the babies are all dead, and no one knows the truth." Gu Guifei said coldly, "You don't need to worry about any of this. I think more deeply than you."
"Yes." King Chen breathed a sigh of relief, "So the lack of any evidence increases the credibility of this matter. In short, even if the father is suspicious, he must not be allowed to know that the mother concubine has created a fake prince to deceive the king, and all the If the blame is placed on Po Wen, my father will not do anything to us."
Concubine Gu nodded: "You are right."
"Mother Concubine——"
"Your Highness King Chen." Eunuch Baoyuan walked in and saluted respectfully, "The time has come."
King Chen turned to look at him with cold eyes: "If I say a few more words to my mother and concubine, will I be controlled by you?"
"I don't dare." Bao Yuan saluted fearfully, "It's just that the Queen's fate comes first, so I don't dare to disobey. Please forgive me, His Highness King Chen."
"Okay, I've seen it, you should go back early." Gu Guifei said calmly, "There will be many opportunities in the future."
"Yes." King Chen suppressed the anger in his heart, stood up, and respectfully saluted the imperial concubine, "My son, please leave first. My mother and concubine must take good care of yourself. I, my son, will come to see you again when I have the opportunity."
"Be good in the future and don't make your father angry again." Concubine Gu waved her hand, suddenly thinking of Jin Yue, and paused in a subtle manner, "How is your trouble-making sister doing lately?"
"Fifth sister has been learning the rules from the nanny during this period." Princess Chen lowered her eyes, looking a little distressed, and somewhat helpless and self-blame, "Mother and concubine know the tricks in the palace, and fifth sister has eaten a lot. suffering."
It was the emperor's intention to let the fifth princess learn the rules from the nun, and the queen just enforced it on his behalf.
Coupled with the recent situation, the upbringing mothers will definitely teach the five princesses the rules "with all their heart and soul" and will never dare to neglect in the slightest.
Concubine Gu's face was gloomy, and she said after a long time: "She deserves to suffer a little, there is no harm in tempering her temper."
Princess Chen didn't say anything more, but she couldn't help but reply in her heart that it was what she deserved.
Their fall from grace started after Rong Jinyue offended Chu Yunfei.
If she hadn't openly insulted Princess Zhan on the long street, causing the situation to become serious and brought the incident directly in front of the emperor, causing the emperor to be furious, the imperial concubine would not have been punished to stay in seclusion because of her goddaughter's incompetence.
Her sister will not be implicated, and she will not be restricted from entering the palace by the emperor.
It seemed that from that time on, they suddenly ran into bad luck. Everything was not going well, and their situation was getting worse and worse. Every incident that happened in the court made the emperor's dislike of them deepen.
There is also what the Gu family did, falsely reporting the disaster and implicating her father in being suspended.
Jiang Ying began to regret vaguely in her heart. She should not have hastily married King Chen, an irresponsible man. She always wanted to rely on nepotism to win over the courtiers, but in fact she had no ability at all.
Without the imperial concubine, he was nothing.
Thinking of the first slap in her life, Jiang Ying's eyes flashed with a gloomy look. It was best for King Chen to survive until the end and earn a place for her, otherwise...
"You guys should leave first." Gu Guifei said calmly, "Restrict your words and deeds from now on, and don't make your father angry again."
Jiang Ying came back to her senses, and she and King Chen agreed in unison, turned around and walked out.
"Your Highness King Chen!" Aunt Ji suddenly ran out and knelt down in front of King Chen, "Please ask the Queen for a favor and let the Concubine have a normal meal. The Concubine—"
"Mother Ji!" Gu Guifei's expression changed and she shouted sternly, "This is the punishment given to me by the emperor. What does it have to do with the queen? Don't embarrass His Highness Prince Chen."
Nanny Ji looked at her with a distressed look on her face: "I just feel sorry for you..."
"I will find a way, please don't worry, mama." After King Chen said this, he quickly left.
As soon as he stepped out of the palace door, two young eunuchs closed the palace door. Baoyuan walked over and locked it.
King Chen looked worried and stared at him for a moment: "Does this palace door have to be locked?"
Bao Yuan collected the key, turned to look at King Chen, bowed and said: "Your Highness, King Chen, please forgive me. I don't dare to violate the emperor's will."
"I know." King Chen turned his head and glanced at the Zhuqi Palace Gate, with a touch of sarcasm and resentment flashing in his eyes.
A palace gate separates the two worlds.
They are biological mother and son, and it is so difficult to meet each other. If he cannot save the situation and win this battle for the crown prince, will his mother and concubine be locked up here for the rest of their lives and never be free again?
King Chen secretly clenched his hands.
He will win, he must get this country, he will become the master of the Chu Kingdom, whether he is the queen or the war king, their fate will eventually be controlled by him.
When he takes that seat, no one who is his enemy today will be able to survive.
After leaving Zhaochen Palace, Prince Chen and his wife cannot leave the palace for the time being.
Because there will be a family dinner later.
Although after Rong Cang gained power, King Chen no longer had any expectations for this family banquet, but he could not leave the banquet in advance. He could only endure the gap and injustice in his heart and survive the unpleasantness of today.
"I thought there was no hope, but I didn't expect such a twist of events, and I got such good news." King Chen walked on the palace road, with a hint of dejection and sarcasm in his voice, "Some people make plans, but in the end they can only come to nothing." .”
Jiang Ying was silent for a long time: "Do you want to tell your father this news?"
"No need." King Chen stopped him, "With such earth-shattering news, the fewer people know about it, the better. If the news is leaked, it will make them better prepared."
"Um."
…
The early summer afternoon was a bit hot.
The queen chatted with Rong Cang for half an hour and then told the palace officials: "Go and see if the princess and Miss Xie have finished chatting. It's hot outside and ask them to come back early for a cup of tea."
"yes."
"These days when you are away from the capital, Yun Fei spends these cold years with me." The queen sighed softly, "She is a smart and transparent woman, and I feel relieved to have her by your side."
Rong Cang thought of everything that had happened in the past few days, and a soft expression appeared on his face: "If it weren't for Yun Fei, I don't know what my son would have become now."
"It's strange that a little girl like her can detect that you have been poisoned." A smile appeared on the queen's face, "In short, you must never fail her again in this life, otherwise you will be sorry for what she has done for you. everything."
"Don't worry, Queen Mother." Rong Cang lowered his eyes and promised, "My son, I will make Yun Fei safe and smooth for the rest of her life, and everything will go as she wishes."
