Tang Zhiling did not continue to ask questions. Children in the royal family were very narrow-minded and he could not treat the second prince as an ordinary child.
After the prince and King Beijing came in together, all the ministers stood up to pay their respects.
The prince was the future heir, and the ministers did not dare to take advantage of Qiao. Even if they had secret intentions, they did not dare to show it.
However, the emperor now only has four princes. The prince's status is stable, the status of the third prince's mother and concubine is low, and the fourth prince is only one month old.
There were two new children in the emperor's harem, a boy and a girl. Li Guisheng gave birth to the fourth prince Chu Haozhe, and Zhang Guisheng gave birth to the fourth princess Chu Qianmiao.
There are not many candidates who can make these ministers choose sides. Apart from the prince, the only remaining one is the second prince.
Although the second prince has not yet entered the court, he has a small group of people due to some connections with his maternal grandfather's family.
The prince has not entered the court yet, so the queen is anxious for the prince's wedding.
After the prince gets married, he can enter the court and receive errands.
The prince had a high status and sat at the top. After he sat down, the second prince sat below, but the seat was also next to His Royal Highness.
When the second prince saw the attitude of these ministers towards the prince, he also knew in his heart that it would be really difficult for him to replace the prince.
Unless...unless something happens to the prince's brother.
Thinking of this, the second prince's heart beat two beats faster.
How could he have such rebellious thoughts.
The second prince is still a young man, and his pursuit of the throne is only mentioned by Concubine Xiao and Lord Xiao often.
The idea of replacing the prince only slowly emerged.
He really hadn't thought about it before.
After everyone began to sit down, the servants of the palace began to serve the food.
During the banquet, there were also singing and dancing performances.
After all, a banquet is still empty without singing and dancing.
Fortunately, these officials also knew what the occasion was today, and they only drank lightly, for fear of making a joke if they drank too much.
King Beijing's health has recovered, and he drinks wine informally.
The court ministers were also full of suspicion when they saw King Beijing like this.
If it weren't for the imperial doctor from the Imperial Hospital and the doctors from Jingcheng who were invited by the Jiang family to see King Beijing, they would have almost thought that King Beijing was pretending to be ill.
This person who is in good health does not look like someone who has just recovered from a serious illness!
Even the prince looked at King Beijing a few times.
King Beijing has been in the Northern Army all year round, so he naturally has more banditry.
Whether it's wine or food, it's all about big gulps.
"Everyone, thank you for being a guest in Jiang's house. You don't have to be restrained. Come on, I'll toast you all."
King Beijing stood up and started drinking with the ministers.
Some officials who wanted to please King Beijing also started drinking with King Beijing.
The prince was young, so naturally he couldn't drink much. He was bored when he suddenly caught Tang Zhiling's gaze.
"Master Tang, has Little Fubao come today?"
The prince hasn't seen little Fubao for a long time, and he still misses him very much.
So he chatted with Tang Zhiling skillfully and asked him for the little blessing.
"Little Fubao is here, but he's in the backyard."
The prince's eyes lit up, "What a coincidence. Bring little Fu Bao over and let me take a look! I haven't seen him for a few days and I miss him."
Tang Zhiling: "......"
It sounds like you are very familiar with Xiao Fubao.
However, thinking that the prince had no ill intentions towards Xiao Fubao, and that the prince was also the future prince, Tang Zhiling did not mind the close relationship between the prince and Xiao Fubao.
"Okay, I'll ask someone to bring little Fu Bao over."
"Go quickly, go quickly!"
"Qiao Shan, go find the servants of the palace and go to the backyard to bring little Fubao over."
"Yes, Lord Marquis!"
Qiao Shan disappeared quickly. The prince noticed Qiao Shan just now. He felt that this person's identity was not simple.
It looks like someone who has left the palace!
Qiao Shan is a secret guard, and the prince has never seen him in the palace before.
But there are also secret guards around the prince. Generally speaking, these royal secret guards are somewhat similar.
At least in terms of martial arts methods, the techniques are similar.
The prince has also studied literature and martial arts since he was a child, so he knows a little about it.
The second prince watched the interaction between the prince and Tang Zhiling silently, and he also had concerns in his heart.
Only now did he know that the relationship between the prince and Tang Zhiling would be so good.
The second prince thought about Tang Zhiling and Xiao Cheng. Could it be that this Tang Zhiling specifically looking for trouble with his uncle and provoking disputes was under the instruction of the prince's brother.
The second prince's heart became heavier when he thought of this.
Could it be that the prince brother has already thought of dealing with him?
The second prince kept guessing in his mind, even the way he looked at the prince was complicated.
The prince felt the second prince's gaze and asked, "Second prince, what's wrong with you? What are you looking at me for?"
The prince didn't like the second prince and thought his younger brother was unlovable.
The prince prefers the honest third prince.
"Brother Prince, it's nothing!"
Prince: "......"
This second child is getting more annoying the older he gets!
At this time, Shen Fei was in the backyard, surrounded by many people.
The reason is him, because of the third princess Chu Qianrou.
After the third princess came in, she walked around in a circle, ignored the flattery of the official ladies, and walked directly towards Shen Fei.
"Bad woman, so you are here!"
Shen Fei was listening to the gossip when she suddenly heard the voice of a little girl. When she raised her head, she met the eyes of the third princess and remembered who the little girl was.
"Oh, it turns out to be the third princess. I didn't expect you to be able to leave the palace."
The third princess was a little proud, "Of course, I can come out if I want. By the way, what were you talking about just now? Can I listen?"
The third princess also wanted to know what they were talking about so enthusiastically.
Shen Fei rolled her eyes, "It's okay to hear it, but you can't call me a bad woman in the future."
"Oh? Then what do you want me to call you?" the third princess asked nonchalantly.
Shen Fei glanced at the third princess and said in a cool tone: "Your prince brother claims to be Xiao Fubao's brother, just call me aunt!"
Third Princess: "......"
Is this woman lying to children?
Zhao Ninghan: "......"
Zhao Ninghan came with the third princess. Shen Fei had never seen this girl. In addition, Zhao Ninghan was very low-key and his reputation in the capital was not as great as that of Si Miaolan.
Not many people know her details.
Although Shen Fei was sitting in the corner, there were many people in the hall.
Even if there is a distance between people, the sound can still be transmitted.
Shen Fei's words teasing the third princess just now caused gasps to be heard in the hall.
These ladies and ladies did not expect that Shen Fei was so familiar with the prince.
Others heard that the prince claimed to be Xiao Fubao's brother, and even looked at Xiao Fubao.
It's a pity that the ladies who came here are not very old, and they are ladies of the back house, so they have never seen the appearance of the late emperor.
When I saw little Fubao, I just thought he was a cute child.
