The emperor was at peace, but the civil and military officials were no longer at peace.

The queen didn't dare to say much, for fear of being beaten if she wasn't paying attention.

Yushu and Fengxi were together every day, eating and living together. If you didn’t know, you would think Fengxi was married to her.

Chu Zheng had no choice but to hold his little pillow and go to sleep with his father.

Yulin carries a burden with him wherever he goes, and he doesn't even have time to make babies.

It was about to be time to turn over the cards again. Chu Zheng was already waiting with his little pillow in his arms, "Father, whose card are you going to turn over today?"

Yulin really wants to stuff him back into his mother's womb. Is it his father who flips the card or that bastard who flips the card?

"Zheng'er, go back and find your mother."

"My mother and mother An sleep together every day. They can't tolerate me."

"Then go find your mother."

"My mother has gone to fast and chant Buddha's name. Father, my mother is so lonely. Why don't you give her a child? A princess will do. Why don't you turn over my mother's card today? I want to eat the mung bean cakes in her palace."

Yulin's face turned black. "You little bastard, you have no business interfering in my affairs."

"Oh, okay, then do as you please. I'll wait."

"You stay here and sleep."

"No, I'm afraid of the dark."

"You are the crown prince of a country, how can you be afraid of the dark?"

"Humph, you used to be afraid of the dark, I'm just following my roots."

"Go away, when have I ever been afraid?"

"Grandma Huang said so. Don't try to make excuses."

Yulin raised his head. "When did you meet your grandmother? Who was it?"

"She's not Huang Ling's, she's the one you forced away." Chu Zheng was still angry. That was not only his grandmother, but also his own grandmother.

Yulin suddenly laughed, "Zheng'er, do you think that father did something wrong?"

"No, the emperor made no mistakes."

"Haha, what a great saying! The emperor can do no wrong."

"Father, don't worry too much. No one will say anything to you."

"I never worry about the gossips. The reason they call me cruel and ungrateful is because they are not emperors. If they were emperors, they would be even more cruel than I am.

I can only ask your grandmother to leave and your uncles to stay away from here. The more miserable they are, the safer they will be. And I can be so cruel to them, what about others?"

Chu Zheng suddenly realized, "Father, are you trying to shock the tiger with a warning? Or are you killing a chicken to scare the monkey?"

"Both."

"What about grandpa, Grandpa Zi'an and the two little uncles."

"They are so smart that they hurt your grandmother's heart. It is necessary to let them suffer a little."

"What about my little aunt?"

"It's a marriage."

"Is she really getting married? Or should she be sent to be with my grandmother and let her choose her own husband?"

Yulin tapped his head and said, "You know a lot."

"Father, if you keep knocking, I will become stupid. What about my uncle? What are you going to do with him?"

"He likes someone but doesn't have the courage to pursue her, so I have to give him a helping hand."

"Bitter meat trick?"

"My son is really smart. They are already grown up. If he doesn't tell her, she won't be able to guess when they will be together. It's also me who delayed them, so I will make it up to them in the betrothal gift in the future."

"That's incest, right?" Chu Zheng asked a soul-searching question.

"Go away, we are not related by blood, why are you making such a fuss?"

"Okay, then why does my father have so many concubines but I am the only one?"

"To remove obstacles. No, it is for you to have no obstacles. Your grandmother helped me ascend to the throne and helped me to stabilize the world. Therefore, the future king must have her blood flowing in his veins."

"Father, why don't you explain it to them?"

"unnecessary."

Chu Zheng didn't know why he didn't need it. Anyway, since his father said it was not necessary, he wouldn't explain it. But who should he sleep with tonight? Why didn't his father choose him?

Mu Wanqing never expected that the emperor would come with the prince.

Can't you see her eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddhist scriptures?

Don't you know that you don't welcome him at all?

Chu Zheng looked at Mu Wanqing who was angry. "What's wrong with you, mother? Don't you welcome us? Don't you want a child? I've sent the father to you. Please hurry up. I'm anxious to sleep."

Mu Wanqing's face darkened, "Your Majesty, some things are not good if they are taught too early."

Yulin didn't care. "He learned it all by himself. He was too bored in the palace. He listened to the gossips of the palace servants all day long."

"That won't do. The prince is less than five years old. If he keeps talking about this all the time, people will laugh at him."

"Then can't the Queen just give him a brother or sister?"

Mu Wanqing was very surprised, "Your Majesty, why?"

"You have worked hard these past few years. I have failed you in the end. You will also be the Holy Mother Empress Dowager in the future. Zheng'er will not treat you unfairly, and Xi'er will not embarrass you either."

Mu Wanqing burst into tears. She was an unpopular concubine's daughter. According to the law, there was no such thing as allowing a concubine's daughter to become the queen. However, the emperor ignored all objections and insisted on making her the queen.

She knew that she was blocking the knife for one person, and she also knew that the emperor would not give her a child. Holding the Phoenix Seal, she avenged her mother with her own hands, and watched them kneel in front of her and beg for mercy, which made her feel very happy.

But for the sake of a good reputation, the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion was not completely destroyed. Only the stepmother was dealt with, and marriages were arranged for those brothers and sisters who had bullied him since childhood, making them spend their whole lives in pain.

She was willing to live this kind of life, but the emperor said he wanted to give her a child. She must have heard it right.

"Wanqing, why are you standing there? Let's go to bed."

"But Zheng'er is still here..."

"You don't have to worry about him. He has nests all over the palace."

......

It is true, a cunning rabbit has three burrows.

Chu Zheng is from the Eighteenth Cave.

There is a place for him everywhere.

But today he didn't go to his own place.

At this time, he was sandwiched between the two mothers and was sleeping soundly.

Feng Xi pursed her lips and said, "You little brat, you fell asleep so quickly."

"Oh, Mother An, I'm already asleep, please stop talking and disturb my rest."

"Who is talking to me now?"

"I was sleepwalking."

"Okay, okay, you are sleepwalking, where is your father?"

"He went to have a child with the Queen Mother."

Feng Xi glanced at Yu Shu, "Sister, are you jealous?"

Yu Shu shrugged, "Why are you jealous? The queen is also a pitiful person."

"Mother, Queen Mother will give birth to a child."

"I know, no one is taking your place."

"Father said the same thing."

Feng Xi seemed to have figured something out, and she wanted to write a letter to her aunt.

Yu Shu yawned, "Alas, the bed for three people is a bit crowded after all."

"It's better to sleep together, mother, don't waste your time, and get your beauty sleep."

"You little brat, go to sleep. I still have something to say to your mother, Concubine An."

Watching the two of them get up and go to the couch, Chu Zheng turned over and muttered, "Is there anything I can't hear? I know everything, but you're still being so mysterious."
