Chapter 224 Summoned
Lu Chengting said, "In a short period of time, the third prince and the fifth prince had accidents one after another. Now, among the five princes, only the fourth prince is left."

The guard nodded. He just heard that the Fifth Prince had an accident and felt that the matter might not be simple, so he hurried back to report to Lu Chengting.

When Xiao Jinyue heard Lu Chengting's words, for some reason, she remembered what she heard in the cave that day.

She remembered that when the man comforted the woman who had an affair with him, he said, "Don't worry, the other two, I've already found out what's going on with them, and after I clear the obstacles, you can do whatever you want in the future."

A bold thought suddenly popped up in Xiao Jinyue's mind. Could it be that the other two that the man was referring to were the third prince and the fifth prince?

But as soon as this idea came up, she pinched it out the next second.

Although originally five princes took over the heir apparent, now only the fourth prince is left, if one guesses who benefits the most and who is behind the scenes, it should be the fourth prince.

But the man in the cave that day was surnamed Song, and the fourth prince did not come to the Jin Palace that day.

Looking at it this way, the fourth prince can be ruled out.

The man is not the fourth prince, and the woman cannot be his mother and concubine Zhuang Xian.

Jin Wang is the emperor's elder brother, and the relationship between the two has been very good since childhood.Originally, the first emperor intended to pass the throne to King Jin, but after Princess Jin gave birth to her first child, King Jin was injured on the battlefield.After the imperial doctor made a diagnosis, he said that it had hurt the roots of his descendants, and he would not be able to have children in the future.

The king of Jin had no intention of the throne, so he truthfully informed the first emperor of the imperial physician's diagnosis, and asked the emperor to pass on the throne to the current emperor.

For this matter, the emperor has been grateful for so many years.

Hearing that the emperor's brother has found his only biological daughter, the emperor is very happy for him.

On the day of the confession banquet, the emperor bestowed a lot of generous gifts to Jinwang Mansion.

In the harem, the queen also gave a copy.

Even though the First Prince is under house arrest, Concubine Zhao Gui is not as favored as before.But seeing that both the emperor and the empress had given gifts, Concubine Zhao was naturally not to be outdone, and also gave a gift to Prince Jin's mansion.

Concubine Zhuang Xian, Concubine Yao Shu and Concubine Sun De had always followed the previous two, so naturally they all followed suit.

Xiao Jinyue remembered that after the banquet that day, she asked her mother, Princess Jin, that the gifts from the emperor and queen were sent by eunuchs, and the congratulatory gifts from the four concubines were sent to Prince Jin's mansion by the big maids around them.

Concubine Zhuang Xian, who was the fourth prince's mother and concubine, never came out of the palace to the Jin Palace, so it is impossible for her to have an affair with that man in the fake cave.

Although the appearance of the third and fifth princes was a bit of a coincidence, it should have nothing to do with the man and the woman.

According to the dialogue between the two cheating lovers, it is speculated that they are both married and have their own families.

Although I don't know who the other two people the man mentioned were referring to, but he probably wanted to remove those two obstacles and marry the woman who had an affair with him in a good way.

The woman once complained that the man now has a beautiful wife and concubine, and there is no place for her in his heart.

Xiao Jinyue remembered that the man had no choice but to say that he was forced to marry them back then.

According to this analysis, the man should want to get rid of the wife and concubine who had no choice but to marry back in the first place, so that he can marry back the beautiful woman who had an affair with him?

Xiao Jinyue's thoughts after sorting out for a long time were still in a mess, and she sighed in her heart, regretting why she didn't see the true colors of the man and woman clearly that day.

While resting her chin in thought, Bai Guo led a nanny in. Xiao Jinyue looked up and found that it was Nanny Di who was beside Princess Jin.

"Mother Zhai, why are you here?"

Nanny Di greeted Lu Chengting and Xiao Jinyue, and then said with a smile on her face, "Princess, someone from the palace sent a message to ask the princess to bring you into the palace, saying that the queen mother wants to see you. So the princess asked me to come Pick you up to Prince Jin's Mansion, and she will accompany you into the palace."

Xiao Jinyue was slightly surprised. The emperor was restless and hadn't gone to court for several days. Her father hadn't seen the emperor several times when he entered the palace.

How could the Queen Mother be in the mood to summon her at this time?

But after another thought, the queen mother is her grandmother after all, and it is reasonable to want to see her after hearing that her granddaughter who has been lost for many years has been found.

The queen mother is still in the mood to see her at this time, does it mean that the emperor's health is actually not a big problem, he is just angry with the third and fifth princes, and feels ashamed to face others, so he has not been in court for a few days?

Xiao Jinyue had a few thoughts in his mind, but they didn't show on his face.After resigning from Lu Chengting, he followed Nanny Zhai to Prince Jin's Mansion.

When I arrived at Prince Jin's mansion, I saw that King Jin and Princess Jin were ready and waiting for her.

As soon as the husband and wife saw her, they immediately pulled her to ask her how she was, worried that she would be nervous and scared when entering the palace, and then asked the maid to bring her cakes and tea to fill her stomach, making sure that she would not be hungry. This is a family of three. go out.

King Jin rode a horse, while Xiao Jinyue and the princess rode in a carriage together.

Knowing that Xiao Jinyue seldom enters the palace, Princess Jin explained to her the rules and etiquette of entering the palace along the way, and comforted her that the queen mother generally treats younger generations with kindness, so she should not be nervous or afraid.

Xiao Jinyue recalled the experience of being called into the palace by the Queen Mother and giving her a marriage. In fact, her first impression of the Queen Mother could only be described as mediocre.

But at that time, she was just a girl of low status, and Chang'an county lord belittled her openly and secretly in front of the queen mother, so it was not surprising that the queen mother didn't want to see her.

Now that she is known as King Jin's daughter, I don't know if the queen mother will change her opinion?

The mother and daughter chatted casually in the carriage, and they arrived at the palace not long after.

Jin Wang hadn't seen the emperor for a few days, worried about his health, after entering the palace, he went directly to meet the emperor.

Xiao Jinyue followed Princess Jin to the Empress Dowager's Palace of Compassion.

After the mother and daughter entered the Palace of Compassion and Peace, the maid came out apologetically and told them that the Empress Dowager didn't sleep well last night, and just fell asleep after drinking calming tea.

After hearing what the maid said, Princess Jin and Xiao Jinyue didn't think much about it.The four princes had accidents one after another, the emperor was in poor health, the queen mother was worried, and it was normal to not sleep well at night.

Although the queen mother is usually well maintained, she is not young after all.A few grandchildren had accidents, and as a grandmother, the queen mother must feel very uncomfortable.

The maid took Jin Wangfei and Xiao Jinyue to the side hall to drink tea and wait.

Xiao Jinyue sat in the side hall with her mother and concubine, chatting while drinking tea. She felt like she was going to doze off for an unknown amount of time, but the queen mother hadn't woken up yet.

Princess Jin looked at Xiao Jinyue's listless face, smiled lovingly, and asked her if she would like to visit the Imperial Garden.

Xiao Jinyue cheered up and simply nodded in response.

Sitting still is really boring, why not go for a walk in the imperial garden.
