Reborn as a concubine's sister, the eldest lady went crazy

"My son, you can vent your anger on me, but you have to believe that I have no intention of harming you! Since you already knew who the murderer was, you should have let me know earlier. We are united as mother and son, are you afraid that we will not be able to stand firm?"

Here it comes again! Here it comes again! Fortunately, I was in a hurry to go to the palace today and didn't have breakfast, otherwise I would have vomited now.

"Forget it, mother. Since you have already thrown dirty water on my third brother and his mother, why not just deny it? That way, even if it is found out in the future that they were not responsible, you can just say that you were just confused, anxious and angry and that's it."

The reason why the Second Prince was able to adjust his strategy so quickly and swallow his anger was because he did not have complete evidence in his hand. The evidence he originally used to point to Lu Anyuan was the arrows of the border troops in that area, and he wanted to use this to link him to the Xu family.

However, this evidence is too weak, and he is just taking a gamble. Since the incident has already happened, he can only let his third brother suffer for now. It is better than identifying a "murderer" now and letting his father think that he is not on good terms with his brothers.

Concubine Ying stared at the Second Prince again and again, and always felt that something had changed since he built his palace.

"My son, your mother always feels that you seem to have changed a little, but your princess consort didn't take good care of you?" Concubine Ying said, her tone already taking on that of a mother-in-law, as if she was going to go and call the emperor to task.

"She is very good. She looks after her son's children and manages household chores in the mansion every day. There is nothing wrong with that."

After hearing what she said, Concubine Ying calmed down: "Although Feng's family background is not glorious, mother chose her to be your consort because she was considerate and thoughtful. Now I think mother was short-sighted. If we can also find a daughter of a famous family like the Cui family to be your consort, she will be no worse than Cui!"

The second prince waved his hand. His marriage was arranged long ago. At that time, it was all decided by his mother. She actually chose the daughter of an official as her wife. It was because her family had some wealth and bought an official position. Otherwise, it would be a dream to let her daughter marry into the royal family.

After Feng got married, she had been living in the palace. At first, the second prince was very dissatisfied, as he thought that the daughter of a merchant was not of proper origin and he was very disdainful of her.

But Feng was indeed as her mother had said, gentle and attentive, and her father-in-law had done a lot for her in the past. Without mentioning anything else, she had been restricted by the palace in the past, and many times when she did not have enough money for social engagements, the money was paid directly from Feng.

Later, the two had children, and the second prince gradually accepted it. Now the mother is bringing this up again, it's really annoying!

"Don't mention the past, mother. You must remember this time. This matter ends here. If father doesn't ask, you must not talk about my third brother again."

"Why is that? Didn't you just say that we should make the best of a bad situation? Then we should strike while the iron is hot and let your father punish that bitch!"

"Mother! Third brother is not the culprit. Your making a fuss like this will not lead to any result. You even made the Queen Mother seriously ill. Aren't you afraid that the Emperor Father will be dissatisfied with you?"

"He's not my biological child..." Concubine Ying's words slipped out of her mouth, but were immediately interrupted by the Second Prince's cough.

There was no one in the hall, but who knew if there was someone listening outside the window.

"Mother, whether she is your biological daughter or not, the Queen Mother is still the Queen Mother, and we, the younger generation, must show respect to her."

After all, the Queen Mother is the mother of Prince Cheng, and she is not a puppet without any power. My mother despises the Queen Mother so much. No wonder the Queen Mother is not close to my family, or even the emperor's grandson, but is closer to Madam Jing and Lu Anyuan. Damn it!

"Yes, yes, yes, I understand. Don't worry, my son. How could your mother not know this? Since you don't want to make a big fuss, then let it be. Count that bitch's life as good as hers. Let her continue to linger on!"

Ying Fei was very proud when she said this. Since giving birth to the third prince and the fourth princess, the emperor had hardly seen Gong Fei. He only gave her the title of concubine but did not favor her at all. In Ying Fei's eyes, this was no different from death, so she just let her continue to live the life of a living dead.

The second prince sighed. After all, Concubine Gong and his mother were both concubines and both had raised princes to adulthood. His mother was always so arrogant and couldn't stand others. She didn't know how to restrain herself. He was really afraid that one day she would backfire on him.

"If there is nothing else, my son will take his leave first."

"Why, you've only been here for less than half a day, and you're leaving?"

"Today is the new year, and there are still many things waiting to be dealt with in the mansion."

Concubine Ying felt an inexplicable jealousy in her heart. She always felt that it was someone outside the palace who seduced her son away, so she wanted to vent her anger.

"In that case, you can go. By the way, when Feng has met her family, you can ask her to come to the palace and bring her grandchildren to see me. Otherwise, I will be an old lonely woman, too pitiful!"

The second prince looked up in astonishment. Wasn't this a trick played by his mother when Feng had just entered the palace? In order to temper her temper, she had to suffer a lot. Now that she was already a mother, his mother still wouldn't let her go...

"Yes." Although he was helpless, he was still very happy when he thought that his mother would focus less on him if Feng entered the palace.

The second prince left the palace and got on the carriage. As soon as he left the restricted area of ​​the palace, he punched the carriage board. He finally couldn't hold back his anger for so long.

"Your Highness?" A questioning voice came from outside the car. The second prince slowly retracted his fist and pressed his blue veins.

"Nothing, just seal up the bows and arrows and clothes and fabrics. They won't be needed for a while."

"it is good."

"By the way, I asked my fifth brother to help take care of Qibei. Has there been any news from there?"

"It is said that the Fifth Prince is very concerned and has listed all the detailed regulations. As long as you have read them and there are no problems, they can be promulgated."

"Yeah." Finally, there was something that made him satisfied. It was also a risk to recruit his fifth brother. After all, if the emperor knew about it, he would definitely scold him for leading his younger brother astray.

But since I dare to give him this opportunity, I believe he will know how to repay me in the future. I am afraid that the world does not know that the fifth prince of Daxia is the best financial manager. I got a bargain and my fifth brother realized his ambitions, which is a win-win situation.

"Don't let him take over the iron and silver mines. We must use our own people."

"Of course. Besides, the Fifth Prince is far away in the capital. Even if he wants to intervene, he doesn't have the conditions to do so."

Hearing this, the Second Prince closed his eyes, leaned back on his cushion, and breathed a sigh of relief. He was not afraid that his Fifth Brother would interfere in the mine affairs for personal gain, but because so far, he was the only one who knew the situation of the iron and silver mines in Qibei.

Qibei does have mines, but according to the reports, the reserves are very unsatisfactory. Some staff even said that it might have been a mistaken exploration. But no matter what, this secret cannot be revealed now.
