Chapter 53 The Prince
On the other side, the powerful princess has also come to the emperor to plead guilty.When Emperor Wu heard about this, he smiled and said: "You are doing the right thing. I am very envious of Duke Zhen who has a Qilin girl like you."

After hearing this, the prince kneeling beside him knew that the emperor was humiliating him, so he didn't care, and knelt silently.He knew that no matter whether he was hard or soft today, he was wrong in the eyes of the emperor.

After returning to the East Palace, the husband and wife dismissed the servants and talked alone in the room.The crown princess accused the crown prince, "Your Highness, your reaction today made King Jin a joke."

The prince was habitually silent and bowed his head first, and then he laughed at himself: "What can I do? If I did what you did today, my father would have whipped me a few times."

The concubine was dumb, knowing that what he said was right, but she said angrily: "Even so, Xiao Shi was scolding Mr. Sui and Lan Shi, so you shouldn't have the slightest reaction."

The prince's hands slowly curled up together.

The Crown Princess didn't notice, and she was so annoyed that she slammed a hammer on the table, "Wouldn't Your Highness be angry when King Jin insulted his father and son so much today?"

The prince raised his head suddenly, and looked at the princess with dark eyes, "My heart will only hurt more than yours. The Taifu is like Yafu, and Lan Shi is like brothers and sisters. Their deaths have tortured me day and night. I know you look down on me. I was cowardly at the time, I never interceded for them, and I looked down on myself, but no matter how much I look down now, I can’t change what happened back then—”

He took a deep breath, "I can only bow my knees in front of my father, I can only bow my head in front of my father, so that I can win my father's sympathy and peace of mind with the image of cowardice and inferiority, so as to get along with the domineering King Jin fight."

"In the past four years, others don't know how I lived, don't you know?"

The Crown Princess extinguished her anger when she heard the words, she felt a sting in her heart, and then said slowly, "Shou Ke, how long are we going to live with this kind of life?"

The prince was originally furious, his eyes turned red when he was called 'Shou Ke', and then he turned his face away, "I don't know. But don't worry, I am not the cowardly person who can only hide behind the prince, and more It's not that... that person who doesn't listen to Taifu's words."

The princess felt sad when she heard it, "Back then, I should have persuaded you."

Prince: "It's my fault, it's none of your business. At that time, I was proud and complacent, and I didn't even want to listen to the words of the Taifu..."

He took a deep breath, "When Tai Tuo and Lan Shi went to Jizhou, they told me to keep the East Palace stable and not to be reckless, especially the tax reform in the south of the Yangtze River, we must wait for them to come back, but I... ...But I...I'm sorry for them, I should have died back then, I should have died!"

"When the Grand Tutor is temporary, I dare not go to see him. I am afraid to see the disgust, disappointment, and regret in his eyes..."

Speaking of this, he has been sobbing.He didn't dare to continue talking about Lan Shi, because he didn't tell anyone about Lan Shi being sent away by him, including the princess.

He took a deep breath, "Yingniang, I heard that people who died in vain have souls that linger... Do you think Taifu and Lan Shi are still watching me by my side?"

The princess's nickname is Yingniang.

She sighed and handed him a handkerchief. She wanted to say a few words of comfort, but she still felt aggrieved and said, "Shou Ke, Lan Shi will hate you, but the Taifu will not hate you. The Taifu will follow Continue to help you, but Lan Shi won't."

Hearing this, the prince glanced at her in a daze, remained silent for a while, finally smiled sarcastically, and said tremblingly with sobs: "Yes, the orchid time has passed, the longevity guest is not withered, spring is only March, but chrysanthemums can bloom four seasons, it is true." unfair."

Seeing him like this, the crown princess turned her head away sadly, "The past is over, let's just look at the future, only for them can I have the face to go down to see them."

The prince nodded silently, stood up quietly, and was about to leave when the princess asked hesitantly, "Ms. Zhaomei... how are you going to arrange it? She seems... doesn't seem to want to stay in the palace very much."

The prince paused, and said: "She is pregnant with my child, let's raise the baby first."

The Crown Princess nodded, "Yes."

After the prince left, she sat silently for a while, remembering what the father and son were scolded today, she felt uneasy, so she simply asked someone to bring wine, "Go and ask the small kitchen to cut a plate of meat."

The maid who had always been serving her nodded, and went out to tell the little maid, "Remember to make a bowl of hangover soup, and then make sweet wine for eggs."

Then he went back to the house and said in a low voice: "Crown Princess, let's not care about...the one from Cangyuan?"

The person in Cangyuan was talking about Zhao Meiren.The prince is not a womanizer, and now there is only Zhaomei on the side of the four beauties, and there are several other concubines who have served the prince, but they have no status.

It can be said that Zhaomei is the only thing that the prince cares about.Now there is a child... The maid is always afraid that Zhaomei will hinder the crown princess in the future.

The princess gave her a serious look, "That's not someone who can make moths, take care of the people below, don't bother her, otherwise, don't blame me for implicating them."

The maid knew her temper, and after asking her to understand her thoughts, she was able to count, but she was still worried, "The princess is kind-hearted and treats her so well. If she is not a sensible person, what should I do if she comes to deal with you in the future? The servant girl is the best!" What I'm afraid of is that she will give birth to a son... In that case, she may develop a disobedient heart and harm the little emperor's grandson."

There are many such things in the palace, and the maid is very worried.

The princess waved her hand, but she didn't care: "If that's the case, just kill her. Now the danger of the East Palace is outside, not inside, just find someone to look after her."

She had a headache, "I don't know where the prince found the woman. According to me, if he can't make Zhaomei surrender, he can let her go. Why should he frame her?"

The prince has never done a refreshing thing.

When the wine came, the maid warmed her a glass of wine and said cautiously: "It's strange to say that it is a blessing to be the prince's concubine and to be favored by the prince. This Zhaomei just came to the East Palace. It was okay, but now she is pregnant, and she has gone crazy..."

The princess: "Who knows what tricks the prince is playing."

She didn't care so much, the maid was relieved, but felt wronged for her, "Obviously you are the crown princess, and it should be His Royal Highness who loves you..."

Before she finished speaking, the princess said proudly: "He is not good enough for me."

The maid grew up with her and knew her arrogance, so she laughed, "Many years ago, the master was worried that you would like Master Lanshi, and he was afraid that you would get involved with the crown prince and Master Lanshi in a story-book affair. There will be estrangement between brothers and hatred between husband and wife."

The princess laughed, "Lan Shi is not good enough for me either. He is very tender, and I don't eat tender grass. Dad spends all day thinking wildly, who is like him, only women are in his mind..."

Thinking of the women in her father's house and the strings of brothers and sisters, she was also a little unhappy, and then sighed, "Father sees that I don't love the prince, and always wonders if there is someone in my heart. But in this life, is it always Do you want to like someone? I don't think so."

She stood up and walked into the courtyard to look at the moon. The moonlight was bright and clear, but the world was very filthy. She murmured: "I don't understand Your Majesty, and I don't understand Your Highness. I can only do what I can do." .”

The maid knew that she was sad for Suijia again, and said bitterly: "Yun Xiao is really disgusting. Young Master Lanshi is obviously trying to make friends with ministers for His Highness. He is quick to advance and retreat. He laughs three times when he sees people. He is an angry horse in fresh clothes. With a temperament like a spring breeze blowing on his face, he can be tough but soft, and everyone was proud of being friends with him back then, but who knows that in only four years, he has been humiliated... humiliated into a brothel girl!"

The crown princess sneered, "The women in the brothel have no choice but to sell their bodies and smiles. Xiao Shi couldn't see the troubles, and even used them as a metaphor for Lan Shi. For him...to be able to jump out, it must be the king of Jin who promised benefits."

She snorted, "Auntie will come to the palace to pay her respects in the future. If you let her come to the East Palace, I have something to tell her."

The maid went away at the sound, and the princess went back to the house, drank the sober soup, and walked around in front of the children's house, and saw that they were all asleep, so she went to sleep with peace of mind.
