Traveling through famine: The space peasant girl

At this time, the Crown Princess came to the Crown Prince's bedroom again, and seeing her kneeling on the ground begging bitterly for the Crown Prince to save her child, she knelt down beside the Crown Prince and tightly grasped his long sleeves.

The prince stood in front of the window, looking at the bright sunlight outside, the sadness in his eyes could not be concealed. He felt very powerless and even irritable now.

"Wanjun, it's not that I don't want to save our children, but the Queen deliberately delayed time and didn't let us know that the children were bitten by snakes. Now there is no way to save them. Just a quarter of an hour ago, the palace sent news that our three children have died."

The prince pulled the sleeve out of the princess's hand, turned around, squatted down, and held her shoulders tightly.

"Did you hear that? Our child is gone."

The prince's originally gentle face now became hideous and terrifying. Who would not be sad if the child he held in his hands was killed by someone else, especially since he loved his own legitimate child very much.

After hearing what the Crown Prince said, and knowing that her child was gone, the Crown Princess instantly lost her temper, and tears rolled down her face.

Even though the prince grabbed her shoulders, she still didn't come to her senses and didn't want to accept this reality.

It has been ten years since she married into the Eastern Palace from the Prime Minister's Mansion. She and the Crown Prince have a harmonious relationship and have raised three children. She even promoted the title of Crown Prince's concubine to the girls in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. No one dared to fight with her in the Eastern Palace.

But how could this happen? The children had always been well protected by the prince. Just yesterday, after the prince went to court, the queen suddenly came to the mansion and took the three children away. She was unable to stop them, and when the prince came back, it was too late.

"It's my fault, it's my fault. I shouldn't have let the Queen take the child away, but she used the Emperor's order to pressure me. I had no choice but to let her take the child away. How could she die? How could our child die?"

The pain in her shoulder brought her back to her senses. She held the prince's robe tightly with both hands. She couldn't believe it. How could her child die in just one night? The child who was so lively and called her mother yesterday!

"I didn't say that if the Queen wanted to take the child away, you should have delayed her until I came back. I would never let her take the child away. How could you be so weak and let her take the child away?"

"I have told you that you must not let the child leave the East Palace. Why didn't you listen to me? Why did you have to wait until now? Now you come to tell me that you regret it, but it's too late for you to regret it. It's too late to tell you now."

The prince pushed the princess aside, stood up, left the bedroom and went to the study in front.

The Crown Princess looked at the empty palace with tears streaming down her face. She couldn't stop her tears from flowing.

She naturally remembered that the prince had told her some days ago that all the children in the East Palace must not enter the palace, and asked her to take good care of her children. Even if the queen came in person, she could not take the children away. However, because the queen had the emperor's decree, she let the queen's people take the children away. She regretted it now, really regretted it. She had thought that no matter how unreliable the emperor was, he would not abuse his own grandson and granddaughter.

Because of this lapse of thought, her three children died.

After the prince came to the study, he looked silent and sad. There was no one else in the study. He sat quietly for a while, and finally couldn't hold back the tears in his eyes and flowed down. How could he not love his own child?

Those three children were born and raised in his expectation. He was about to transfer them, so how did they get discovered?

Why? Why couldn't his own father, the current emperor, tolerate him? He even teamed up with the queen to kill his own grandson.

There were only four children in the East Palace, and now his three legitimate children were all killed. He was really angry, really angry. In the end, the Queen was punished to be confined to the palace for three months for failing to take good care of them, and then there was no punishment.

The emperor felt a little bit reluctant, so he gave a lot of rewards to the Eastern Palace. At the same time, he secretly ordered people to investigate where the child of the crown prince's concubine Zhang had gone. If the child was found, there was no need to report it, but to execute him directly.

Zhang, the prince's concubine in the Eastern Palace, lived in Yimei Cottage. She watched the entire Eastern Palace in mourning. She could hear the prince's wife crying even from this corner. Zhang Qianqian looked at the mourning outside with a sneer. Liu Wanjun, that fool, attacked women like them in the Eastern Palace all day long, but couldn't even protect her own child. She really wasted the prince's trust.

Zhang Qianqian was born as the second daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. She was originally eligible for the position of Crown Princess. She had a crush on a young general, and they had been childhood sweethearts. She was going to marry the young general after the beauty pageant, but she was framed by Liu Wanjun and her inner clothes were seen by the Crown Prince when she was changing clothes in Prince Kang's Mansion.

The bitch Liu Wanjun actually brought a lot of ladies to catch him and the prince committing adultery. It was simply unbelievable. The emperor actually issued an edict, allowing him to be carried into the East Palace through the side door in a sedan chair.

This plot was too obvious. How could she not know that it was the plot of Liu Wanjun and the one in the palace? Zhang Qianqian had already accepted her fate, but that little bitch Liu Wanjun actually instigated the prince to kill the young general. She was naturally gritting her teeth in hatred, but her own family was suddenly wronged, and her grandfather asked her to endure it and take good care of her son, and they would take care of everything.

Zhang Qianqian had to hold back her anger. She knew very well what was happening outside these days. She had been living in her own small garden. The secret guards found out that the prince was transferring his property, so Zhang Qianqian also urgently transferred her property and son. She didn't dare to send her son directly to his grandfather, so she could only walk through the mountains to Qiong Island.

Just two days later, the Queen came to pick up the children to play in the palace. She said that she didn't know where the children had gone and couldn't be found. The Queen didn't care much about Zhang Qianqian's children, so she took the Crown Princess' children and left the East Palace. Looking at the backs of the Crown Princess's three children leaving, Zhang Qianqian could hardly suppress the smile on her face. It turned out that every bitch will get her comeuppance.

This Liu Wanjun is such a fool. Prime Minister Liu is a staunch royalist, and he is also good at talking and is deeply trusted by the emperor. In this turbulent time, the Liu family has not been affected. Liu Wanjun has come to disgust Zhang Qianqian many times. Now looking at the worried look on Liu Wanjun's face, in order to prevent herself from laughing, she pretended to casually adjust the three-tailed golden phoenix hairpin on her temples, left the door, and returned to her own cottage.

While waiting for good news from the harem, Zhang Qianqian didn't expect the queen to be so impatient that she took action before the night before. It would be extremely difficult for her son to be taken to Qiong Island by the secret guards, but it would be better if he didn't die directly at the hands of the ladies in the harem. Even if the people of their Zhang family died, they had to die in a fair way.

She sat in front of the dressing table, looking at her beautiful face in the mirror. She wore a golden peony crown on her head, with three golden phoenix hairpins on both sides. She looked very precious, but she was born as a legitimate daughter, but she could no longer wear peonies. How could she not be angry? She asked the maid to take off the crown and hairpins on her head.

She put on two white flowers and changed into a plain white dress. She couldn't cry, so she asked someone to prepare a handkerchief soaked in chili powder. When she really couldn't cry, she would wipe the area around her eyes.

The mourning hall for the three children was quickly set up. When Zhang Qianqian arrived, she saw the three half-grown coffins without any emotion. These three children had learned bad things from the Crown Princess. They not only bullied their own Yun'er, but also bullied the Crown Prince's concubines. Their death would get rid of three troubles for the future Dazhou Dynasty.

Zhang Qianqian took the incense and lit it for the three children, then sat down beside them, watching the Crown Princess crying with tears in her eyes. Beside her were two maids who accompanied her as part of her dowry. The Crown Prince also came with red eyes, and after lighting incense for his son, he went to the front to receive his brothers.

The prince didn't know that the person who plotted against him was Liu Wanjun, or he didn't care at all who plotted against him. He only cared about losing face, so he kept giving Zhang Qianqian the cold shoulder. However, he didn't dare to go too far. After all, the Zhang family was there, and the Zhang family's influence was in the army, so the prince had to please Zhang Qianqian.

The Crown Princess was really good at crying. She cried for a whole day, which made the Crown Prince feel very distressed. After everyone left at night, Zhang Qianqian also wanted to leave, but was stopped by the Crown Princess. The Crown Princess looked at Zhang Qianqian with dark and fierce eyes.

"Zhang Qianqian, why haven't I seen your son these past two days? His brother and sister passed away, but he didn't come. It's better to kill this bastard who has no brotherly love."

"Xiao Cui, arrange for someone to go to Yimei Cottage and bring Zhou Qingyun to me."

Liu Wanjun was not a person with a bad temper. Since her son was gone, all the children in the East Palace had to be buried with her son. No one could survive and they all had to die.

At this time, the Crown Prince had been crying all day because he felt sorry for his Crown Princess. As soon as he came outside, he heard what the Crown Princess said. The Crown Prince's face, which was originally a little worried, immediately turned gloomy. Zhou Qingyun was the only child he had left alive. Was the Crown Princess, who had always been gentle and generous, possessed by a demon?

There was no one else here, and Zhang Qianqian didn't tolerate her. She turned around and slapped Liu Wanjun hard on the face, grabbed Xiao Cui's hair, and slammed her head hard against the sharp corner of the chair next to her. She didn't have time to talk to these people, she just wanted to vent her anger.

"Liu Wanjun, I'm giving you some face. You don't want it at all. I have been enduring all these years just for Yun'er to live a healthy life. Let me ask you, those things that you sent to Yimei Cottage that contained medicines that weakened the body, I saved them all for you."

"You and the Emperor plotted against me to get me and the Crown Prince together, so that I could be carried into the East Palace in a sedan chair. Are you very proud of yourself? You have the girls in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion in your hands."

The prince looked into the room in shock, because he couldn't see what was going on inside because of the door. But he also knew that he seemed to have wronged Zhang Qianqian over the years. He always thought that Zhang Qianqian had plotted against him and had never given Zhang Qianqian a good look.

"You want your child to be the only one in the East Palace. I don't care about you, but if you attack my son again, I will make sure you die without a burial place. You don't really think that our Zhang family will leave Jinling without any backup plan, do you?"

Liu Wanjun looked at Zhang Qianqian with a sneer, who looked like an old hen.

"I was able to plot against you once, but the prince still believes that you were the one who plotted against him. It has nothing to do with me. Even if the prince knew about it, what would happen? It was originally the emperor's order, and I had no choice. It's best if your son is hidden somewhere I never know. Once I find him, no matter where he is, I can make your child die quietly."

Liu Wanjun has gone crazy. She has no way to confront the people in the palace now, so she can only vent her anger on Zhang Qianqian. There are no legitimate children in the Eastern Palace now, so how can a bastard's child survive?

"Liu Wanjun, I have already sent Yun'er to a safe place. You will never find that place even if you die. You are really pitiful. The prince values ​​you and let you give birth to three children. But you are stupid and harmed your own children. The prince has told you to keep an eye on your children and not let them out of your sight.

Do you think that since you have cooperated with the emperor, the emperor will definitely protect your child? After all, you think you have the upper hand over the emperor, right?"

Zhang Qianqian was really dying of laughter. The prince had warned Liu Wanjun so much, but this fool still let someone take her child away. She found that it was a blessing that her Yun'er was not paid attention to. Liu Wanjun walked around the harem with her child every day, and now she was being retaliated against. She really deserved it.

"Zhang Qianqian, you don't have to be so proud. I am the mistress of the East Palace. No one can stop me from doing what I want to do. How long do you think your little bastard can live? My father is the prime minister, and he has many disciples. Where can you hide your child? There are only a few places. I wonder how long you can be so proud."

Liu Wanjun shook her sleeves angrily, left the mourning hall and went to the back to rest. Zhang Qianqian looked at the spirit tablets of the three children and sneered.

"You three are so unlucky to be born into a mother like this. I hope you can have a good family in your next life, with parents who love you."

Turning around and leaving the mourning hall, Zhang Qianqian saw the expressionless prince as soon as she walked out the door. She twitched her mouth, but still knelt down and saluted.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. The Crown Princess is in the inner hall. I will take my leave first.

The prince didn't say anything, just nodded. He didn't know what to say. He had always treated Zhang Qianqian badly over the years, and suddenly he didn't know how to face this person who was also being plotted against.

Zhang Qianqian had no intention of talking to the prince and went straight back to her own Yimei cottage. The prince's wife in the room also heard Zhang Qianqian's greetings and her heart skipped a beat, but she still came out with hope.
