The empress is pregnant, and the emperor's incense continues

With this doubt in mind, the eldest prince sneaked into the queen's palace in the middle of the night and asked the queen herself.

"Mother, you are confused. You are already the lord of the Sixth Palace, and your son is also the eldest son. Our mother and son will have stable rights and wealth in the future. Why do you want to kill a dying person so early in the morning when you have nothing to do? If you rush into someone’s room and kill her, can’t you wait until she leaves the palace before killing her?”

Faced with the eldest prince's accusation, the queen was speechless. If she said it directly, she had found the emperor's secret. With the eldest prince's temperament of not being able to keep things secret, he would definitely be discovered by the emperor soon. Then the prince would point out They may all be in danger of their lives.

What's more, everything is her guess, and all the witnesses are dead, so there is no point in her speaking out.

"Your Majesty, you are not young anymore and should use your brain. Since you think I shouldn't kill people like this, then why do you think Mrs. Yousheng died?"

The eldest prince fell into deep thought. His mother was not a brainless person. She had been standing in the harem for many years and had many scheming methods. She really did not look like someone who would do such a brainless thing.

"Could it be that the Queen Mother accidentally killed Madam Yousheng?"

This must be the case. The eldest prince became excited instantly: "Mother, I know you didn't do it on purpose. Let's go tell your father. He will definitely understand. How can he and you have been married for so many years just because of this?" A momentary mistake has put you under house arrest."

The more the eldest prince talked about it, the more he felt that it was feasible. All of this was a misunderstanding. Just clear it up.

He smiled and waited for the queen's answer, but what he waited for was a big-eared melon seed from the queen.

"That's enough. Is this all you have?"

The eldest prince was a little aggrieved: "Mother, I guessed wrongly. Please tell me why you hit someone? Could it be that you killed Madam Yousheng impulsively?"

The queen was too angry to hit anyone. Why did she give birth to such a stupid son?

She took a deep breath for a long time, and then slowly said: "Have you never thought that I can't kill Mrs. Yousheng?"

The eldest prince really hadn't thought about it. He said in surprise: "Is there anyone in the harem who can frame the queen?"

The queen no longer wanted to be tempted, she said directly: "The death of Mrs. Yousheng was just an accident, not killed by me. However, the emperor did not investigate or listen to my explanation and just issued the imperial edict. This can only show that the emperor has no intention of killing her." He just wants to abolish the queen, what he cares about is not the death of Madam Blessing Saint at all, he just wants an excuse to abolish me."

"Father, does he want to change his position to a noble concubine?"

The eldest prince once again felt that he had guessed correctly, and the queen opened her mouth to refute, but suddenly felt that her son was not smart enough and would definitely not be able to fight Meng Wenyao, so it was better to let the noble concubine fight.

She responded vaguely: "Hmm."

Then, she told the eldest prince earnestly: "When you see the second prince from now on, you must be respectful and don't be presumptuous. From now on, he will be the king and you will be the minister. Do you understand? Otherwise, your life will not be saved."

The eldest prince sat down on the ground. He had been the legitimate son for more than ten years, and now he wanted to bow his head to a concubine. It would be better to kill him directly.

Seeing the reaction of the eldest prince, the queen smiled knowingly. The eldest prince was a brainless person. Only if he truly thought that the emperor wanted to depose the queen, would the noble concubine believe it.

As long as the imperial concubine accepts the emperor's intention to abolish the queen and establish a new one, she will definitely take action against the queen so that she can ascend the throne as soon as possible.

After all, only a dead queen can make room.

At that time, as long as the imperial concubine takes action, she can immediately seize the imperial concubine's handle, and then throw the blame of Mrs. Yousheng to the imperial concubine, killing two birds with one stone.

From now on, she can clear her grievances. If the emperor does not release her ban, the previous dynasty will also force the emperor to release her. She is not only a queen, but also the biological mother of the eldest prince.

Sure enough, the confused eldest prince sneaked out of the queen's palace and sat by the lake in the imperial garden for half the night. When the sky was bright, he walked to his palace indifferently.

After walking a few steps, I met the imperial concubine and the second prince who were walking.

"I have met the imperial concubine, my second brother."

The eldest prince bent down to salute, but the imperial concubine did not speak. He remained motionless. His respectful look was not the same as the domineering look he once had.

The imperial concubine and the second prince looked at each other, with a vague idea in mind.

"Get up, why does the eldest prince come to the imperial garden so early in the morning?"

The eldest prince shook his head in confusion and said casually: "Collect some dew to make tea."

Hearing this, the second prince burst into laughter. Why does the eldest prince still have such a girly hobby?

"I didn't expect that my eldest brother is so proficient in tea ceremony. I wonder if my younger brother is so lucky. Let's try the dew collected by my eldest brother."

The eldest prince nodded and said awkwardly: "I was in a hurry today and forgot to bring the bottle. I will pick it up tomorrow and send it to my second brother."

Until the eldest prince said goodbye and left, the imperial concubine and the second prince were still in a fog.

"Is that really the eldest prince? Why do you feel like a little eunuch?"

After hearing what the second prince said, the imperial concubine glared at him angrily: "Be careful, the queen is actually a queen, and he is still your brother. You must not say such derogatory words."

The second prince quickly said yes, but he didn't know what he was thinking.

Looking at the retreating back of the eldest prince, the imperial concubine sighed: "He has been the legitimate son for more than ten years. Once the queen lost power, she was nothing more than a lost dog. Now, although our mother and son are in power, if you are not the prince, our status will be the same." It’s unstable, do you understand?”

He didn't understand this. Even if he didn't understand it before, seeing the queen and the eldest prince fall, the second prince still had lingering fears.

"My son understands that he must strictly discipline himself in the future and not let his father make mistakes. Will the mother and concubine of Yaohua Palace take action?"

The two of them looked towards the Yaohua Palace where the Queen lived. The Concubine said quietly: "We have been fighting for half a lifetime, but I didn't expect that she lost so suddenly. When I first received the imperial edict, I thought the Emperor just asked me to take charge. It's just the harem, and now looking at the eldest prince's desolate appearance, there's a good chance that the emperor doesn't even want to protect the eldest prince.

If this is really the case, Your Majesty, this throne will be yours in the future. Since I am the mother of the emperor’s heir, I cannot just be a concubine to embarrass you. Don’t worry, the one from Yaohua Palace will not live long. When the time comes, I When you ascend to the position of queen, that is the day when you ascend to the position of prince. "

Hearing these words, the second prince's blood surged with enthusiasm. He whispered in the ear of the imperial concubine: "My son, please pay your respects to the queen mother."

The mother and son looked at each other and smiled, their eyes full of bloodthirsty madness.

Although Meng Wenyao in Jianzhang Palace was raising the fetus honestly, her ears were not idle and she kept listening and collecting information from all over the palace.

After hearing about the confrontation in the imperial garden this morning and how the eldest prince was now so good at pretending to be a grandson, the imperial concubine must have thought that she was about to fly up a branch and would definitely test whether the emperor had any plans to depose the queen.
