When Shi Yi thinks about Xianyu, someone always comes to disturb her.

Prince Shou enjoyed watching these women fight to the death for him, so he didn't care about the struggle in the backyard at all. Unexpectedly, his sons got into trouble one after another.

Some people drowned in the lake, some fell to death from the rockery, and some even choked to death from laughing while drinking water...

Although he had many sons, none of them could bear such a young death. He severely punished many people who took the opportunity to cause trouble, but Qiao Niang was not one of them.

It was obvious that many things were done by this woman, and he could confirm it with a detailed investigation, but he stopped at the moment when he was about to uncover the truth.

All the anger ended when Qiao Niang looked pitiful and pleading.

It turns out that no one can wake up someone who is pretending to be asleep.

Although he protected Qiao Niang, he would not allow his son to have another accident, so he sternly warned Qiao Niang that he would severely punish her if anything happened to his son.

I'm still not very reassured.

In fact, he knew in his heart that Qiao Niang was definitely not as innocent as she appeared to be, but he just couldn't bear to deal with this woman.

One day, he finally came to his senses and felt guilty about it, so he sent away the only legitimate son born to Jiang, letting him grow up well outside under the pretext of learning a skill.

He was called back only when he was almost an adult. He was pleased to see his son grow up, even though he had no father-son relationship with him.

He was far less fond of the son than the one Qiao Niang gave birth to.

But no matter how deeply Qiao Niang loved him, Prince Shou knew in his heart that the successor to his legacy should be the legitimate son left by his legitimate wife.

He has been fooling around for most of his life, what isn't he clear about?

It's just that he is a selfish person who only wants to live a comfortable life. He is unwilling to consider other people's thoughts in many things.

Sometimes he is so obsessed that he has to go against other people's ideas, as if this is the only way to show his uniqueness.

His biggest mistake was losing his military power, but he was unwilling to admit it, so he became more erratic in his actions, making it difficult for people to find his true intentions.

But recently he suddenly felt that he was becoming more and more powerless. The hatred of his wife in his dreams made him feel uneasy. Was it because Jiang had suffered some injustice?

But the doctors said that she was depressed and no one had harmed her. She was just narrow-minded and blamed others. She already had a son to support her and her position as the legitimate wife had not been shaken. What was there for her to be dissatisfied with?

She is the legitimate wife and the princess, so she should be magnanimous. But she has to pick on the concubines in the yard. It is because she is not broad-minded enough. She cannot blame others, let alone him.

He didn't divorce her, she was the one who got herself angry to death.

Prince Shou kept emphasizing in his mind that he was not the murderer who killed Jiang, as if this really had nothing to do with him.

The abbot of the Pure Land Temple twisted his Buddhist beads and hesitated for a long time before saying:

"Your Highness, the princess is your legitimate wife. Even though she passed away earlier, she is still your first wife. In your family tree, she is the only one who can be listed alongside you and is recognized by your ancestors. She keeps appearing in your dreams because the person she is tied to is being treated unfairly, or she is warning you of something bad that is about to happen."

You, Prince Shou, know better than anyone what bad things are!

So many of your sons have died. If you still don’t wake up, even if a great immortal were to come to the world, he would not be able to save you.

He took a risk in saying this. After all, this Prince Shou did not seem to be very smart, and he gained his fortune in his early years by his bravery.

As a result, he was not destined to be so rich, and he squandered the power he had already obtained.

In fact, he already had the biggest backer. His Yue family was a noble family. As long as he and his Yue family learned more about power and business tactics, or discussed it with his wife, he would not have ended up in this situation.

He neglected Yue's family, which meant he pushed away his backers; he neglected his wife, which meant he abandoned his loyalty; he could not live in harmony with both his wife and him. No superior could trust such a person.

Another thing is that he couldn't even keep the son he gave birth to, which shows how bad his ability is.

The abbot said these words after careful consideration. This Prince Shou was unreliable, and there was no point in making friends with him. It would be better to make friends with the next generation head of the palace.

There are only two males left in the palace now, one is born to the legitimate wife Jiang, and the other is born to the favorite concubine. No matter how you look at it, these two are the legitimate sons who are more qualified to inherit the family business.

Therefore, his current interpretation of the dream is in favor of the legitimate son. He asks Prince Shou to think carefully about whether you owe anything to the legitimate son, and to quickly check whether your concubine has done anything to the legitimate son.

Otherwise, why would your wife who has been dead for many years keep coming back to you, a heartless man?

Prince Shou stared blankly for a long time with empty eyes, and finally closed his eyes in pain. He knew that Qiao Niang had done a lot of bad things behind his back.

But this woman was one he truly loved, and he was unwilling to dispose of this woman who had tried to please him wholeheartedly, but his only legitimate son...

Prince Shou knelt in front of the tall Buddha statue, his mind in turmoil. His eyes were fixed on the compassionate face of the Buddha statue, as if he was looking for some kind of answer.

He knew that he was facing a difficult decision. His only legitimate son, the only son of the Jiang family, and the only bond with the noble Jiang family was his hope for the future.

However, it was his beloved concubine who hurt his son. He was full of contradictions and entanglements, not knowing how to choose.

He closed his eyes and prayed silently, hoping to get some inspiration from the Buddha.

He recalled the innocent smile of his son when he was a child, which was one of the few and most precious things in his life. He couldn't let anyone hurt his child, but how could he do that to his beloved concubine?

Prince Shou frowned tightly, and the pain in his heart became more intense.

He knew that no matter what decision he made, it would bring pain.

He knelt in front of the Buddha statue for a long time, as if time had frozen. His mind wandered in pain and entanglement, unable to find a way to have the best of both worlds.

Finally, he took a deep breath and stood up. He decided to trust in the wisdom of the Buddha and believe that everything would be arranged for the best.

He would protect his legitimate son and send more trustworthy people to secretly protect him. As for Qiao Niang...

He was torn between his conscience and his desires, and finally made a decision helplessly. He returned home and thoroughly investigated Qiao Niang.

It's not that he doesn't suspect his son's recent abnormal behavior, he just doesn't want to face it. Now he can no longer pretend to be ignorant.

He went down the mountain in a daze.

The abbot of the Pure Land Temple was very happy. The royal palace was really generous. After all, it was supported by the Jiang family, so the royal palace still had plenty of money.

Why is this Prince Shou so... Alas!
