Chapter 243
"I forgot about that." Concubine Shu smiled regretfully, "Do you know why Princess Anqing made a fuss about retiring the engagement last time?"

Ying Ning smiled and said: "I really heard a little about this. It is said that the Sixth Prince got hurt, which would be a hindrance to the heirs."

"Is this true or false?"

"It's groundless. Since such a thing has been reported, and it has provoked such a strong reaction from Princess Anqing, I believe it must be somewhat true." Ying Ning said.

"I'm also wondering about this. If it's fake, Zhang Gaoqiu wouldn't be so stupid, right? In the end, he made his daughter a side concubine. But if it's true, why did the emperor keep him in the capital instead of sending him to the fiefdom?" Woolen cloth?"

Ying Ning thought for a while: "Maybe the land is not enough?"

Concubine Shu laughed out loud: "You are the most ridiculous when you are serious and joking. Even you, a princess, has a fief, but he doesn't have a prince?"

"Then why?"

"There are speculations inside and outside the court that the emperor still prefers the sixth prince to be the crown prince."

"Then seal the crown prince directly, how can you seal King Xuan now?"

"Think carefully about this word Xuan. If it doesn't have that meaning, why would you give him such a title."

"The king's heart is like the sea." Yingning sighed.

"You are clever, you must know something about it, you still haven't told your aunt." Concubine Shu said angrily.

Yingning just smiled: "I have a little guess, but I don't know if it's true or not."

"Say it."

"I think the sixth prince should indeed have such a little injury, and it's hard to say whether it can be cured." Ying Ning softly expressed her speculation, "If the news does not spread, the emperor can directly make him the prince. Yes. But now that there is a lot of rumors, the emperor will not be able to handle it."

Concubine Shu said with a smile: "Who would dare to spread such a thing?"

"Excluding other impossibilities, the only explanation left is the news released by the sixth prince himself."

"Is this impossible?" Concubine Shu was stunned, "Is the sixth prince stupid? When a man encounters this kind of thing, he doesn't try his best to hide it. How can he let it out on his own initiative?"

"If I'm not mistaken, it's probably for the marriage with Princess Anqing."

Concubine Shu said in a low voice, covered her lips and smiled: "The sixth prince is probably... still thinking about you?"

Back then, everyone knew that Gu Changyuan begged to marry Yingning.

Ying Ning said with a smile: "It's not necessarily true. However, it is certain that he does not want to marry Princess Anqing."

"Tsk." Concubine Shu shook her head, "If that's the case, the sixth prince is also a ruthless person. In order not to let Princess Anqing be his concubine, he doesn't even want the crown prince."

"He is King Xuan, there is still a chance."

"That's a reasonable thing to say. It depends on whether the body of the six kings can be raised well." Concubine Shu smiled lowly, "If you want to be a prince, you can't have children. The three kings and five kings But they all gave birth to sons."

Yingning couldn't help but think of Ci'er.

Ci'er is already the eldest grandson of the Li family, no one will ever know the secret that he is Gu Changyuan's son.

This made Yingning feel a little relieved.

Walking to a fork in the road, Concubine Shu said: "I'll go back and lie down for a while, so you don't have to send me back. Go back to yourself and play with the third and fourth girls. The two of them finally went to the palace. Bored in the house, you take them out for a stroll."

Ying Ning agreed, watched her go away, and then turned back to her own Yufu Palace.

After walking a few steps, he saw Gu Changyuan and Princess Anqing walking towards each other.
