Chapter 231 Past events (7)

"I heard that the prince is back? Why don't you come to see me?"

In Kunning Palace, a beautiful woman wearing a phoenix crown and robe, with long red hairpins on her fingers, asked in a low voice.

"Reporting to the Queen, it is said that His Highness went to the Third Prince's bedroom and left in a rage."

Cuizhu, the queen's personal maid, said.

"Oh? What made Jing'er so unhappy?"

The queen reached out to adjust the ornaments on her head, with a look of impatience on her face.

For so many years, she only had one prince, Jing'er, and she would never have any more children after that.

"Slave, slave dare not speak"

Cuizhu knelt on the ground with her forehead pressed tightly against the ground, and spoke in a trembling voice.

The queen snorted coldly and slammed her nail-painted hands on the table. The next thing she said was tinged with anger.

"Why are you afraid to say it? Speak!"

"Yes, yes. I heard that it was because the Third Prince brought some portraits of ladies to you some time ago. When the Crown Prince found out, he..."

"Oh, so that's what's going on. The prince really doesn't know the seriousness of the matter. Erdana took the portrait just to show his brotherly love."

"Your Highness, this is rather tactless, and it also hurts the friendship between the brothers. In the final analysis, it was my fault back then. If it weren't for me, how could the Prince, how could he..."

At this point, the queen gritted her teeth.

When she was about to give birth, the midwife beside her turned out to be a lowly woman who was bribed by the imperial concubine.

When her child Jinger was born, she suffocated him to death in the cradle and then lied that it was a stillbirth.

When the emperor learned about this, in order to prevent the world from knowing that the queen had given birth to a stillborn baby, which was an extremely ominous thing, he directly entrusted Jing'er to the eunuch and threw her out of the palace.

Perhaps the eunuch felt pity for Jing'er, who was just born and had never opened his eyes to see the world, so he originally agreed to bury him in a mass grave.

As a result, he put the small basket into the flowing water, and let it slowly float away. Then began Xi Jingzhi's long journey to find his relatives.

If Xi Jingzhi hadn't looked so much like the Queen, the Queen wouldn't have dared to recognize him at first.

It was precisely because of her mistake that Jing'er had been stranded outside for so many years, and was raised astray, becoming a freak like Long Yang.

Thinking of this, the queen became even sadder. She raised her hand and used a handkerchief to gently wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Cuizhu didn't dare to answer and just knelt on the ground in silence.

After the imperial concubine was exposed, she was sentenced to being torn apart by five horses, and the Mu family behind her fell into decline and was no longer allowed to enter the court.

"What's wrong with women? She actually likes a man. Maybe Jing'er hasn't realized the beauty of women. I have to pick some for him."

"Cuizhu, what do you think of the daughter of this civil servant? She is eighteen years old, well-educated, proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and even her appearance is impeccable."

After the queen finished her grief, she quickly picked up the portrait and happily chose a candidate for the Crown Princess for her son.

At the banquet, the scene was quiet for a long time since the prince left.

It was not until the Sixth Prince had eaten his fill and burped that everyone woke up and immediately pretended nothing had happened and continued eating and drinking.

But in this kind of atmosphere nowadays, who can really eat it?

They all wanted to leave the table immediately and pretend that they had not heard the prince's words.

It turns out that the friendship and respect between the brothers is just superficial. How could the royal family be so harmonious?

The Third Prince did not speak until the end of the banquet, and the Fourth Princess took over the presidency. Everyone dispersed and went back to their homes.

After walking out of the palace and getting on the carriage, Wei Changsheng finally spoke out what he had been holding back.

"The prince is indeed as difficult to approach as the rumors say. I didn't even dare to breathe heavily when he appeared just now."

Wei Changsheng patted his chest and said in a low voice.

"Changsheng, disaster comes from the mouth, don't criticize the prince rashly"

Wei Changqing's face darkened and he looked at himself seriously.

Shi Yunan remained silent from beginning to end, just lifting the car curtain to look at the scenery outside.

When leaving the palace, an extremely luxurious carriage drove past quickly, raising a cloud of dust all over the sky. Shi Yunan quickly lowered the curtains.

So he naturally missed the look of Xi Jingzhi holding the jade pendant in deep thought.

The prince's carriage went ahead, and the Wei family's carriage followed slowly behind. Before long, it was completely left behind.

After returning to the Wei Mansion, Wei Changqing was called away by Wei Changyi.

Wei Changsheng was bored staying in the mansion, and besides he didn't have to go to class, so he thought about going out to play.

"Let's go out and play."

Wei Changsheng ran all the way to Shi Yunan's room without stopping, knocked on the door and said, panting.

He had been in poor health since childhood, a disease he had brought with him from his mother's womb. He had consulted numerous famous doctors and imperial physicians, and all he could do was to take good care of himself.

No heavy exercise and no strong emotional ups and downs are allowed, so over the years, Wei Changsheng has never ridden a horse to hunt or anything like that.

The most intense exercise he could do was just jogging a few steps, but even this jogging scared the servants behind him.

"Young Master, slow down and don't run. Young Master Shi won't run away either. Slow down, ancestor!"

Hearing the noise outside, Shi Yunan opened the door and saw Wei Changsheng, who was slightly shorter than him.

Wei Changsheng is nineteen years old this year, and he still has one year to go before he reaches adulthood. Now is the age when he loves to play.

Seeing Shi Yunan coming out, Wei Changsheng quickly grabbed his sleeve and wanted to run out excitedly.

Shi Yunan lowered his eyes and looked at the sleeve that was being pulled, and found that Wei Changsheng really loved pulling people's sleeves. He didn't know where this habit came from.

This time they did not take a carriage, but took a few servants with them.

"Xiao Xiao, do you want to go to Miao Zui Lou?"

Seeing the excited smile on Wei Changsheng's face, Shi Yunan subconsciously asked, "Miaozuilou? Wanna drink?"

"If you say it's wine, it's wine. If you say it's not wine, it's not wine either."

Wei Changsheng suddenly started talking in a riddle.

“You can’t drink alcohol.”

Shi Yunan looked at him expressionlessly.

With Wei Changsheng's current body, if he drinks, it's hard to say whether he can get out of Miaozui Tower safely.

"I don't have to drink, but you drink it."

"I'm not interested in drinking. Let's go to the dim sum shop and buy some dim sum to eat on the way."

It was already the Shen hour when the banquet ended, and now it is already the You hour.

"Well, go ahead and have a look. I heard from others that Miaozuilou is really great. Maybe it can help you get out of the shadows in one fell swoop."

"Shadow? What shadow?"

Shi Yunan was stunned for a moment.

"Oh, that's it, that's it..."

Seeing Wei Changsheng hesitating, Shi Yunan rolled his eyes and pretended to leave him alone to buy snacks.

Anyway, his eldest brother gave him money, so he could buy whatever he wanted.

"Hey, don't go, Xiaoshi! Isn't that okay?!"
