The paranoid prince is crazy, but I have been quietly reborn

Chapter 153 Invite Your Highness to Accept Kexin's Worship

Seeing the Queen Mother's serious tone, Mother Xia was really angry, and immediately stepped forward to comfort her in a soft voice.

"His Royal Highness King Yu, please follow the Queen Mother, don't make the Queen Mother angry."

Chu Yu still had a cold face.

The Empress Dowager looked serious, without the loving smile just now.

"Lian'er, Nan'er, you all step back first, the Ai family has something to say to Yu'er."

Chu Lian and Chu Nan looked at each other, then immediately stood up, saluted and retreated.

Out of the side hall.

Chu Lian and Chu Nan walked out.

"Today in Qinzheng Hall, the third brother and the fourth brother cooperated so well. I don't know when the fourth brother and the third brother got so close?"

Today the three of them were summoned to Qinzheng Hall, the emperor asked about the vacancies of the hundred officials in Kyoto, and wanted to ask them if they had any good recommendations.

Chu Lian was in the same vein as the prince in the past, but he also established some connections with him in private.

Now that he and the crown prince are officially at odds, apart from the previous network, the imperial concubine also secretly managed many people for him.

It is a good opportunity to have many vacancies in the official positions in Kyoto. He can place his own people in various places in the court, and he can better stabilize his position.

What Chu Lian never expected was that Chu Yu and Chu Nan agreed in front of the emperor that the appointment of officials was the responsibility of the emperor or the crown prince, and they should not interfere.

As soon as these words came out, Chu Lian didn't know what to do with his careful thoughts, but he couldn't help but feel puzzled.

When Chu Nan returned to the capital for the first time, he had a very good relationship with him. Even the time when Zizhou was almost plotted by the prince was because of his help.

How could it be that in just a few days, Chu Nan turned his back on a cripple?
Hearing Chu Lian's doubts, Chu Nan still put on a warm smile.

"Fifth brother's words are strange. Just like the emperor's grandmother said, they are all brothers of the same clan for the same life. How can they be close or not?"

The surprise on Chu Lian's face suddenly changed, and he let out a chuckle.

"Fourth brother is right, I was worrying too much."

The two stopped talking and walked straight outside the hall.

Suddenly, Chu Nan stopped in his tracks, still smiling lightly.

"Fifth brother, like the third brother, the fourth brother has no one to rely on behind him. Now that the Queen of the East Palace and the crown prince have been reprimanded, the fifth brother should take care of his father's worries."

As soon as these words came out, Chu Lian's face changed inexplicably again, as if he was discerning the intention of Chu Nan's words, and he said coldly after a while.

"This king has been taking care of my father's worries."

Chu Nan's smile grew stronger, and he even nodded slightly to show his approval.

"That's right, the fifth brother has a noble concubine behind him, and his status is naturally incomparable to that of the fourth brother and the third brother."

When Chu Nan said this, his tone was sincere. In his heart, the current situation of the prince was really like this.

Chu Lian was a little flustered, now that his mother and concubine still have the right to assist the Sixth Palace, how could it not be precious.

After thinking about it, Chu Nan's words are not unreasonable. Now is the time when the East Palace is defeated and he and his concubine are proud.

If he didn't take this opportunity to set up the situation in the court, once the power of the East Palace regained power and the support of the Lu family, he would have little chance to win the crown prince.

"Fourth Brother was joking, but it's been a long time since I mentioned Concubine Mother, so Fifth Brother bid farewell to Concubine Mother."

He must discuss countermeasures with Concubine Ling as soon as possible, and place his people as much as possible in various parts of the court to deal with the Lu family's party members.

Chu Nan looked at Chu Lian who was leaving in a hurry, showing a meaningful smile.

On the other side, Qin Kexin took Su Youning and Nan Xiang for a walk in the garden.

In Empress Lu's Qianqiu Day, Su Youning saved the Queen Mother's life, and later cleaned up all the ladies from Kyoto who wanted to show her a good look. Qin Kexin did not reject Su Youning.

After all, Su Youning was courted by Lu Pingting, whom she disliked the most.

Moreover, everyone knows that His Royal Highness King Yu has a weird temper. Not only did Su Youning not lose half his life like the gossip that has spread all over the capital when he married into Prince Yu's mansion, but he was able to show his face in front of the Queen Mother, and made that weird-tempered Your Highness save her.

All kinds of things can't help but make Qin Kexin look at Su Youning high.

"Princess Yu is quite capable. I heard that His Royal Highness Prince Yu has stood out for you in the palace several times."

Facing Qin Kexin's slightly teasing and sarcastic words, Su Youning just laughed it off.

"You Ning is from Prince Yu's Mansion. If His Highness doesn't stand up for You Ning, everyone will be able to see the jokes of Prince Yu's Mansion."

Qin Kexin smiled, and turned to look at Nan Xiang who had been absent-minded.

She knew that Concubine Zhe's intention to seek the Empress Dowager was Nanxiang's meaning, even though Qin Kexin was not in the palace all the year round, she still knew some things.

"If the princess can enter Prince Yu's mansion, Princess Yu will have a companion in the future."

Su Youning bit her lower lip, for some reason, she felt an inexplicable sourness in her heart when she mentioned Nan Xiang's marriage to Prince Yu's Mansion.

"The matter is still undecided, the county owner should not talk about it, lest the county owner be shy."

Qin Kexin has always disdained to please anyone, so she glanced at Su Youning coldly.

A gust of cold wind blew by, and Qin Kexin gathered the cloak around her body.

"What Princess Yu said is that King Yu is not easily persuaded. Besides, with his temperament, if he really wanted a side concubine, he would have gone to the emperor to ask for an order. Why should Concubine Zhe come to meet the Queen Mother in person? Madam said so."

Qin Kexin thought his analysis was correct, and glanced at Nan Xiang provocatively.

"Princess, is Kexin's analysis correct?"

The phoenix hairpin on Su Youning's head had already caused Nan Xiang to be in a mess. Hearing Qin Kexin's words at this moment, he had already lost his mind.

In the past, Nan Xiang was sure that she was a special case of Chu Yu.

But several times, Nan Xiang saw with her own eyes that the exception beside Chu Yu was no longer her, and forced a smile.

"What the county magistrate said makes sense."

"The autumn wind is cold and cool today, Nanxiang is feeling a little unwell, so I won't accompany the county magistrate to enjoy the scenery."

Seeing Nan Xiang disappear across the garden with two maids, Qin Kexin burst out laughing.

"It's really not funny."

Su Youning was also amused by such a cute Qin Kexin.

"The county owner is not afraid that she won't be able to eat or sleep well when she goes back."

Qin Kexin snorted coquettishly.

"That's her business. Do you still want to watch the scenery here? I'm going back to the queen mother."

Su Youning leaned over to salute.

"The county lord can go and get busy if you have something to do. You Ning is waiting here for His Royal Highness King Yu."

Qin Kexin raised her eyebrows slightly, and left without any reluctance.

As soon as he walked out of the garden and walked up the corridor, Qin Kexin saw a man in a white brocade robe standing with his hands behind his back on the corridor coming out of the side hall.

Qin Kexin stopped in her tracks. From her perspective, she happened to see a smile on the man's chiseled side face. Perhaps it was because the weather was too cold, and one side of the man's earlobe was obviously red.

With her heart beating faster for no reason, Qin Kexin gathered the cloak around her body with her white and slender fingers, and approached the man in white with light steps.

"At the end of autumn and early winter, after the heavy rain, His Royal Highness didn't even put on a cloak, isn't it cold?"

Chu Nan, who had watched Chu Lian leave, was planning secretly in his heart, when a delicate female voice broke into his mind.

Chu Nan turned his head to look at Qin Kexin, whose nose was slightly red.

"Thank you for your concern, the county lord. Men are different from women. Besides, I live in the south of the Yangtze River where it rains all year round. It's not a big deal for me to be cold."

Qin Kexin knew more or less about Chu Nan's life experience, and he couldn't help but feel a little sad when he heard him mention it so casually.

"The Fourth Highness reminded Ke Xin at the Qianqiu Banquet, but Ke Xin has not yet officially thanked His Highness."

"I met you today, please accept Kexin's respect from the Fourth Highness."
