Chapter 26 - Misfortune

King Qin walked into Huanhua Hall cautiously.

He had just been scolded by the emperor, and now he came to the mother and concubine, and he was mentally prepared to face the storm.

But to his surprise, Yun Fenghuang did not have an attack. After he was excused, he comforted him first: "This is all done by Mrs. Gu, my son is really wronged!"

"Mother and concubine, it's my son's incompetence that's burdening my mother and concubine." King Qin's eyes turned red, and he said with sobs.

"Your father will be confused if you care about it, and don't take it to your heart." Yun Fenghuang sighed, motioned him to sit in front of him, took him with one hand to hold, and said confidingly, "He is not only angry with you, but also I am angry with those who schemed against you. As a prince, although you are aloof, you are also the target of many people with good intentions. Counting your age, you are thirteen, and if there is no accident, you will be resigned in two years. There is still your father in this palace, no matter how loud the officials are, they will not be able to do anything to you. At that time, what will happen if you leave this palace and your father?"

These words made King Qin couldn't help being silent.

Although he also knew that his aptitude was not good enough, and there was a high probability that he would not be able to catch Chunjia's eyes, but he was the eldest son of the emperor after all, and he had been favored since he was a child.

It's not that the King of Qin never fantasized about it. His father, the emperor, now promises everything. If... If he forces the eldest son to be the crown prince, it will be useless to oppose it in the front and rear palaces.

Even though he was thirteen, Chunjia didn't mean it.

It's just that if he doesn't die in a day, he still has this slim hope after all.

Because Chun Jia has always been very kind to him, pampering and partial.

Today is the first time I have had an attack with him.

But this can also be understood as the emperor's love for the imperial concubine.

His favor not only comes from his status as the eldest son of the emperor, but also from his adoptive mother as a noble concubine... King Qin knew this very well.

So I didn't feel anything.

Now when Yun Fenghuang mentioned Jiufan, he suddenly realized that his father, the emperor, probably had no such plan.

Even if there was, after this incident, would the emperor, who was disappointed in him, still give him that kind of honor?

For a moment, King Qin felt mixed feelings.

Yun Fenghuang saw the change in his expression, but pretended not to know it, and after comforting him softly, he analyzed the ins and outs of the whole thing together with him: "...this is Gu What you did, but Gu will not expect that after this incident, they will do something to you. After all, they also know that you are the eldest son of your father, and it is absolutely impossible for your father to deal with you severely because of such things. So you don't have to worry about this matter, mother concubine and your father will help you deal with the aftermath. For these two days, you stay in Qiongjiu Palace and don't go out. Let's talk about it after the limelight passes."

After sending King Qin away with such a good voice, Yun Fenghuang turned around and showed a gloomy expression, "If this child hadn't already known his background, I would have personally beaten him this time!"

The left and right persuaded: "Although His Royal Highness King Qin knows about his life experience, his heart is still toward you, Madam. Even if you beat him, does he still dare to blame you in his heart?"

"You also said that it's not that you don't blame, but you dare not blame." Yun Fenghuang snorted, "This child was raised by me alone. I don't know what kind of temperament I don't know? He has been praised since he was young. I haven’t heard any serious words. Now I know I’m wrong. If I was punished by this palace, I probably didn’t think much about it at the time. After two years, I went to the feudal kingdom and was slightly provoked. Maybe I will feel wronged and think that this palace Harsh him!"

Of course she is not afraid of this son, the key point is that she has pampered her for so many years, just to make King Qin hate her for such a short time, is it a loss?

So after Yun Fenghuang's anger passed, he decided to carry his loving mother to the end.

Besides, "He came from His Majesty, and His Majesty has already scolded him. No matter how much I scold him, what's the use of scolding him, except to make him feel uncomfortable? Why don't you just be a good person."

Speaking of this, he thought that Chunjia was not a person who could not hold his breath. Moreover, after all these years, he must have known the aptitude of King Qin, and he should have been selected as a candidate for the heir apparent.

She understands the emperor's temperament, as long as he is not the son of the future prince, the emperor not only doesn't care, but even encourages him.

It's not that the emperor wants some of his sons to be rich and prodigal sons, but that only the princes with flaws will not be suspected by the sons who are in charge of the East Palace in the future, so that they can end well.

Like the emperor's own two cousins, King Yi and Marquis Yongchun, they have no heirs, and they don't have any outstanding abilities... So the emperor has become more affectionate and kind to them in the past two years.

If these two brothers are extremely outstanding talents...

It is estimated that they have gone down to see the Prince Regent and his wife long ago.

In short, Chunjia should not be so angry with King Qin that he summoned him personally. Didn't he see that King Qin knew his background and deliberately acted as a villain?

Yun Fenghuang smiled slightly, stopped thinking about it, and turned to talk about the arrangements for the King of Qin: "He happened to have such a stumble because he happened to have a long memory. How many times have I told him in the past, but he never took it to heart. Go. Now is a ready opportunity, so don't push things down too easily, lest he be depressed for a day and think it's nothing more than that."

The attendants worried: "Will it hurt the reputation of Xuanqing Palace too much?"

"It doesn't matter, anyway, Zhonggong is not going to be much better at the moment." Yun Fenghuang sneered, "Besides, Mrs. Gu thought that if Gu Jing's mother and daughter were forced to death, this matter would be over? It's a good idea!"

While watching the aftermath of King Qin's affairs, she is planning to continue to take revenge on Zhonggong...

In the end, before he could do anything, he received a bad news: "Jin Xi had an affair?! When did this happen?! And who was she picked up by!?"

Chen Jing was sweating profusely, knelt on the ground and didn't dare to get up, first she pleaded guilty, and finally said tremblingly: "Returning to your mother, it is not known whether Princess Jinxi has a heart, but our people accidentally saw it. Princess Jinxi is outside the palace, disguised, playing with... and His Royal Highness the Third Prince!"

Yun Fenghuang's face was gloomy, and he said: "They are serious cousins. If they meet by chance, Jin Xi is young and ignorant, so it is possible for him to be deceived by the third prince... How long has it been since you found out? Have there been similar things before?"

"...After discovering this, the maidservant immediately asked someone to bribe the servants of Princess Yun'an's mansion. I learned that the princess has often disguised herself in the past six months and went out through the back door to relax." Chen Jing said in a low voice, "Is it every time I don't know if they all met with the third prince...but seeing how warm the princess is with the third prince, I'm afraid they have had a lot of contacts."

Although Princess Jinxi and the third prince are serious cousins, the princess has always studied with women, while the third prince never went to school with girls because the queen has no princess under his knees.

In this way, they only had the chance to meet at the palace banquet.

But at the palace banquet, under the watchful eyes of everyone, if there is something involved, how can Yun Fenghuang not know?

I didn't hear the wind at all before, and now I just heard it by accident...

Yun Fenghuang's thoughts turned around, and he compared Xie Fuwang with the third prince in terms of talent and appearance, and his face gradually became livid.

There is no doubt that her nephew is regarded as a talented and beautiful jade among the many children of the Xie family.

The appearance is also extremely handsome, and the temperament is generous and considerate.

Can be regarded as a modest gentleman.

But the third prince...

Ji's daughter-in-law and Chunjia's flesh and blood, not to mention their looks, are not in the same category as Xie Fuwang, but they will definitely not be compared.

In terms of talent and learning, in fact, the third prince has gradually faded away in the school in the past two years, but Yun Fenghuang knew it well, this one must be keeping a low profile, and in serious comparison, Xie Fuwang may not be able to compare with him.

If you talk about identity, the gap is even bigger.

No matter how unfavored the third prince is, he is still a prince, and at worst he is also a future feudal lord.

In addition, this kid has a lot of eyes, he has cheated the empress and the ten princes so many times, but the mother and son have not noticed it so far... It can be seen.

Such a city is used to deal with a decent little girl like Jinxi, isn't it easy to catch?

And Shaffer forgot...

Although this nephew is one year older than the third prince, because of his background, he is far less scheming than the third prince, and the weakness in his bones is difficult to completely erase.

In the eyes of an elder like Yun Fenghuang, this weakness will cause her heartache.

But she knew in her heart that for a girl like Jin Xi, from the standpoint of a lover, she might find it boring, or even despise her.

In other words, it is entirely possible for Jin Xi to empathize with another...

"... Leave a message to His Royal Highness Yun'an, and invite her to come into the palace to explain." The imperial concubine was furious, but after thinking for a while, she finally calmed down and said slowly, "I want to ask myself, what is going on? What's going on?!"

The marriage between Jin Xi and Xie Fuwang was not a childhood sweetheart, but after the two parties agreed, they tried to make their childhood sweethearts.

Now Jinxi seems to have changed his mind, or at least he has an external heart, and it doesn't matter.

What the imperial concubine wants is a niece and daughter-in-law who is of noble birth and can support her nephew to be favored by the emperor. It doesn't matter the specific identity of this niece and daughter-in-law; and Princess Yun'an must also want a niece who can help her family In-laws, Xie Fuwang's weak nature may not be interesting in Jinxi's eyes, but in the eyes of Yun'an and his wife, it is easy to control, has a bottom line, and is an advantage.

So what Jinxi thinks doesn't matter.

As long as Yun An is not confused, this marriage will not be shaken.

but……

Yun An was so confused that her daughter went out to relax again and again, and didn't know who she was with?

Yun Fenghuang was full of thoughts, waiting for the arrival of Princess Yun'an.

"What?! There is such a thing?!" After a while, Yun An, who was confused, came over, and after hearing the beginning, his face suddenly changed, and he said hastily, "I have never heard of this... Ma'am, please don't get me wrong, Jin Xi is young, if the third prince orders her to travel with her as an elder brother, this child is very naive, she must not know how to refuse at all!"

Yun Fenghuang was not surprised by her reaction, and only said lightly: "I naturally believe in Your Highness, but Jin Xi said that she is young, after all, she is a girl who is engaged, and she always goes in and out with her cousin. Go out, and those who know say that their brother and sister have a good relationship, those who don't know, don't know what to say... This will also be detrimental to His Highness's reputation, right?"

"Your Majesty said so." Yun An forced a smile, "After I go back, I must be disciplined. This child... this child is usually very obedient, and I don't know what the third prince said to her this time. Lied like this... It seems that in the future, I can't be too pampered, I have to let her know some truths."

The eldest princess shifted the responsibility to the third prince, insisting that Jinxi must have been deceived, and said a lot of good things to her daughter in a roundabout way. Seeing that the imperial concubine's expression gradually eased, she hurriedly left and went back to deal with the matter.
