In fact, this is really not the fault of Prince An. He doesn't know how to investigate the case. He wants to please the imperial concubine. Therefore, the imperial concubine's brother will write down the name of anyone he dislikes, and then add his own political opponents and personnel. It just seems like a lot.

Of course, the Minister of Punishment and the Minister of Dali Temple saw the problem, but they had searched for so long and found nothing. With Prince An standing in front of them, they had nothing to fear.

As for the names on the brochures, they are not worried at all, as the law does not punish everyone!

Even if the person who died was the nephew of the imperial concubine, and even a small half of the people in the court could be beheaded, the emperor would definitely pick it up high and put it down gently, and everyone would be fine in the end.

So when they saw Prince An's report, they tacitly said nothing and asked Prince An to hand it over without making any changes.

Looking at the fold in his hand, as an emperor with an online mind, he wanted to smash the fold on Prince An's head, but he couldn't.

He has no sons. Prince An is the only bloodline of his brother and his closest nephew, and is likely to be his heir in the future.

This is his first time on an errand. If he loses face too much, it will be difficult for him to gain a foothold in the court in the future, which will be detrimental to the stability of the country.

Thinking of the Queen Mother's words last night and the tears that Concubine Chen shed in his arms, the emperor couldn't help but want to scold Prince An. It was his presence that made him live such a miserable life as an emperor.

The emperor struggled for a long time before suppressing the anger in his heart, and said without distinction of joy or anger: "We will investigate again, don't rush to close the case, don't accuse a person unjustly, just stand down."

The three people went out together. King An felt that there were too many people on the list, so he planned to go back and delete a few and submit them in a few days. It would be best to close the case before his crowning ceremony.

The imperial concubine will attend his coronation ceremony and say a few kind words for him. When the emperor drinks wine and is happy, he may become a prince on the spot.

The Minister of Punishment and the Minister of Dali Temple looked at each other and felt that there was something in the emperor's words. They hurriedly pulled Prince An and said, "My lord, wait a minute. I'm afraid the case will be overturned and re-investigated."

Prince An didn't understand. The emperor didn't look angry. He was just worried that they would investigate too quickly and wrongfully accuse someone. They would just go back and delete a few of them.

"What do you two adults mean by this?"

The Minister of Punishment said: "The emperor is afraid that he doesn't believe this list at all, so he asked us to investigate again. Don't accuse people unjustly. He also said that there is no rush to close the case. From what I see, we will investigate slowly. When the emperor urges us, we will investigate again." When will the case be closed?”

It’s just a drag to say the least! Prince An was not happy. This was his first errand. How could it end in a big way? He was still waiting to ask for credit from the imperial concubine.

The Minister of Dali Temple also took advantage of the situation and said: "What the Lord Shangshu said makes sense. This case is too strange. Many places need to be re-examined. The coronation ceremony of the county king is coming soon, so there is no need to worry about this case."

Prince An now has reason to wonder whether these two adults deliberately prevented him from running his errands, for fear that he would make some achievements before the coronation ceremony. Could it be that these two adults also did not support him in becoming the crown prince?

There are so many opponents in the court? Prince An made a note of the two adults in his notebook, but the three of them broke up unhappy.

There were still two days left for Prince An's coronation ceremony, and Meng Wenyao kept applying eye drops to him.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother said that when you were crowned, she was still in the cold palace and could not see it with her own eyes. She felt very sorry. Therefore, when Prince An was crowned, she would use the same golden crown you used to crown her, which would be considered as compensation for her old age. It’s a pity.”

As expected, the emperor's face turned cold. Prince Ruo'an used the emperor's golden crown. What is the difference between this and issuing a decree to canonize the prince.

Although he had always planned to pass the throne to Prince An, he felt unhappy after being urged to do so.

"It's better to use new ones."

The emperor replied calmly, and Meng Wenyao continued: "What about the cloak you used when you were crowned? The Queen Mother also wants to give it to Prince An."

The emperor was roaring in his heart, Prince An just used his dragon robe, why bother with a crown, he could just ascend the throne.

The emperor's face darkened little by little. Meng Wenyao smiled with satisfaction, picked up a piece of melon, and raised it to the emperor's mouth.

"Your Majesty, try it. It's very sweet."

If you feel bitter in your heart, you have to eat something sweet, otherwise how can you live your life.

The emperor pushed Meng Wenyao's hand away and refused: "I still have some things I haven't read, so I won't accompany Yao'er for now."

After seeing the emperor off, Meng Wenyao happily tried on clothes.

"Your Majesty looks great in this goose-yellow outfit. When the time comes, the Emperor will wear bright yellow and stand next to your Majesty. It will match well."

Aunt Hua looked at her young lady with joy, feeling as if a daughter in our family had grown up.

"Does goose yellow look good? Does it go well with bright yellow? Why do I think bright yellow is more suitable for bright yellow?"

Meng Wenyao stood in front of the mirror and looked at her own figure. The bright yellow queen's court uniform was probably more impressive.

"What the empress said is that when the empress puts on the queen's court clothes, she will be more suitable for the emperor."

Ru Xin answered the words so quickly that she was so frightened that Nanny Hua quickly covered her mouth and scolded: "I don't even look where I am. There are ears everywhere and I dare to say anything."

Ru Xin sticks out her tongue to express her dissatisfaction. If her young lady is so favored, it will only be a matter of time before she becomes the queen!

Thinking of the upcoming banquet, Meng Wenyao finally said: "Send more manpower to keep an eye on Jiaofang Palace. If the second lady shows up wearing clothes similar to mine, come and report immediately. You must also pay attention to every move of Prince An."

"Don't worry, Madam. Now even if a leaf falls in Jiaofang Palace, it will be reported to my slave."

Meng Wenyao nodded with satisfaction and waited to see how the imperial concubine would kill Prince An. She was reaping the benefits.

Prince An's coronation ceremony was grand and luxurious, and the Queen Mother praised Meng Wenyao with satisfaction: "Concubine Chen is very capable. Even though she is young, she can handle things very neatly."

The ladies from the aristocratic families in Changle Palace who came to visit all nodded and rushed to fawn over Concubine Chen. The concubine sat aside as if she didn't exist.

The coronation ceremony for Prince An was very complicated. There were a lot of procedures including worshiping ancestors, offering sacrifices to the Ancestral Temple, etc.

The women gathered in the Queen Mother's Changle Palace to wait for the ceremony to end, and then everyone attended a dinner together to complete the ceremony.

The six ministers all brought young ladies of suitable age, and the Queen Mother asked them one by one with great interest, nodding with satisfaction from time to time.

He also secretly asked Meng Wenyao: "How about choosing a few more side concubines for the prince, and whoever gives birth to a son first will be the main concubine?"

Is this because I miss my son? Meng Wenyao didn't even want a serious wife, but only wanted a son. Meng Wenyao was speechless.

"Best regards, Madam."

Anyway, the Queen Mother is in charge of the house, so she just goes along with everything. If anything happens, she can't be blamed.

The ladies tried their best to attract the Queen Mother's attention. Among them, the daughter of the Minister of Civil Affairs was particularly outstanding. The Queen Mother kept holding her hand.
