The position in the harem is respected by the queen, and there are three wives and four concubines.In order to seek longevity, the current ruler of the country is quite dedicated to Taoism, so there are not many concubines in the harem, and there have been no newcomers for several years.

Back then, Concubine Shu surpassed the third wife and became a queen because she gave birth to a prince.And the three wives all come from the clan with noble status, and they are just worried because they have nothing to come out of.

Now that the queen has died of illness, the prince is single and weak, and under the bewitching and lure of the royal family, they all start to move around. They suspect that their infertility is due to the queen's persecution, so they form a group to frame the prince.

Among them, the one who benefited the most, and who was helped by him, was naturally the king's younger brother, King Yongcheng.He has been devoting himself to the deployment for the past few years, and the real Xiaoyao, who is the most trusted by the lord of the country and has been sealed as a national teacher, was recommended by the king of Yongcheng.

He and the king have the same mother. The young king is more than eight years old, but he got married at sixteen. Before the age of 20, he had two sons and one daughter in succession. Even his granddaughter Xue Lingyi was the same age as Zhuji.

The prince was placed under house arrest, and Marquis Wuwei begged to see the king, but he was not allowed to see the prince, but the king sent people to stop him.Now that such a large amount of dirty water has been splashed on him, the prince can't defend himself, the situation is extremely critical.

Marquis Wuwei had no choice but to sit alone in the study for a long time after returning to the mansion that day. He knew that the current framing of the prince was just the beginning.The king of Yongcheng will not give up if he does not achieve his goal with such a large sum of money, and it is unknown who will be behind.

Marquis Wuwei knew that he couldn't just sit and wait for his death. He had already contacted the courtiers who supported the prince to put pressure on the king to deal with those who spread rumors and frame him as soon as possible, and lifted the prince's house arrest.

As for Runyu, the lord of the country probably wouldn't summon her so soon, so he should take advantage of this opportunity to leave the capital as soon as possible.

He asked someone to call Runyu to come, but when he looked up, he saw Zhuji standing at the door, and Marquis Wuwei walked in generously after seeing him.Zhuji saluted, and proposed to see the king herself, and asked to see the prince Yaoyu.Marquis Wuwei gave a deep smile, he didn't expect that the young jewel in his palm would already share his worries.

Zhuji has her own waist card and can enter and exit the palace freely.Since she was born, she was often brought into the harem, and she was born pink and cute. She has always been liked by the lord of the country. Maybe she can persuade a few words. It would be even better if she could see the prince.

Although Marquis Wuwei felt that something was wrong, he still sent someone to set up a carriage and sent Zhuji to the gate of the palace.She entered the palace without hindrance, and also met the king.But there are still King Yongcheng and the national teacher in the hall, seeing that it is inconvenient to persuade Zhuji at this moment, she can only openly say that she wants to see the prince.

The lord of the country is still a little conniving with Zhuji, a pink doll who has grown up, and he is not too embarrassing.But King Yongcheng, who was standing aside, smiled contemptuously, and satirized Zhuji.

"You girl is more in love with His Highness the Crown Prince. No wonder the Empress is newly mourned, so she wants to marry you."

Zhuji was very annoyed, but still neither humble nor overbearing, she bowed to King Yongcheng and said in a low voice.

"My cousin, he lost his mother just now, and I lost my aunt. We feel sorry for each other. After thinking about it for only a few days, someone will tarnish his virtuous name behind him. I feel very sad, so I want to cry with him."

Her eyes were red, and tears came as soon as she said it, and in a blink of an eye, Lihua approached the king with rain, looked up at him, and cried out aggrieved.

"Uncle...you won't let me go?"

Hearing the words of the king of Yongcheng, the king hesitated at first, wanting Zhuji to go back, but seeing her crying and begging himself, his heart softened for a while, he sighed and allowed her.

After getting the consent, Zhuji hurriedly thanked her and resigned, and rushed to the East Palace.With the king's oral order, naturally no one dared to stop him, so he went straight in and saw Prince Yaoyu who was reading a book in the inner hall.

Yaoyu didn't look depressed and embarrassed, and she wasn't surprised when she saw Zhuji. After closing the book, the sackcloth was undiminished, and she stood up, smiling lightly.

"Father is soft-hearted towards you."

He greeted her, rolled up his sleeves and went to make tea for Zhuji.

"You are still so calm, the king of Yongcheng wished he could eat you alive!"

The water in the water mirror began to bubble slowly, he turned around and laughed jokingly.

"That's because he failed to recruit me as his grandson-in-law, so he became angry from embarrassment."

The granddaughter of King Yongcheng has a deep admiration for the prince Yaoyu, but she is a bit domineering and often makes enemies with Zhuji.

"No wonder, that's why I beat you hard. This is to prevent you from becoming a prince. Then what are you going to do?"

"Then let's not do it."

As if joking, Yaoyu spread her hands.Zhuji felt even more heavy, she sat down beside the long table and said anxiously.

"Life and death, don't joke about it."

Yaoyu suddenly stopped washing the cup, turned her head and said solemnly.

"Zhuji, do you think I'm joking?"

Zhuji pursed her lips, not daring to look at his serious eyes, but said.

"If marrying Xue Lingyi can make everyone happy, why not?"

There was a moment of silence, only the sound of boiling tea in the water mirror.Yaoyu ironed the cup, ordered the tea silently, beat the foam with the tea whisk, pushed it in front of Zhuji, looked at her, and said slowly one word at a time.

"I've been waiting for you to grow up for all these years, so I don't want this happy ending."
