The legitimate daughter brings disaster to the concubine! Seize the imperial power and the throne
Chapter 164: Farce in the East Palace
At that time, after the Third Prince sent Bo Yan'er back home, he made an excuse to go out and took another carriage to accompany Liu Xiangling.
Liu Xiangling pouted and started to act coquettishly around the third prince.
The third prince had no choice but to say a few words to comfort her.
After Liu Xiangling calmed down, she said, "Today, my mother sent me a letter saying that the Queen had summoned my grandmother, and my second uncle and second aunt's family had come to the palace for an audience. Ever since my grandmother found out that it was my mother who had helped His Highness take in a concubine, she has been very dissatisfied with my mother and even punished her by making her kneel in front of the ancestral hall to reflect on her mistakes."
"Is this happening?"
"Grandma is so partial!" Liu Xiangling curled her lips.
The Third Prince shook his head: "To the old lady, the Queen is her biological daughter, the Second House is her biological son, the Crown Prince is her biological grandson, and the Crown Princess is her biological granddaughter. They are all relatives. I am just the Queen's adopted son. After all, there is a gap."
"Grandmother has no say in this matter." Liu Xiangling's face was full of sarcasm, and she snorted, "Your Highness may not know, but Concubine Han became a different person after her miscarriage. The Crown Prince accompanied her every day. Liu Meier was very proud and could not stand having her favor taken away from her. She found all kinds of troubles for Concubine Han and made her almost dead. The Crown Prince was very angry. In order to compensate Concubine Han, he actually wanted to give my son to Concubine Han to raise."
"Liu Mei'er was naturally unwilling to do so, and she had an argument with the prince. In a fit of rage, she stabbed the prince's arm with a hairpin, causing him to bleed a lot."
Liu Xiangling sneered. This was all Liu Meir's ability was. Relying on the support of her family and the fact that she gave birth to the eldest son, she was arrogant and looked down on everyone.
It would be fine if it was just a minor fight on a normal day, but Liu Meir injured the prince. How could Queen Liu tolerate this?
Now, he directly issued an edict to allow several elders to enter the palace.
"Father said that the prince has no morals. Now is a good time for your Highness. If the emperor gives your Highness the power of 300,000 troops in the northwest border, your Highness will definitely be able to defeat the prince." Liu Xiangling blinked, looking confident.
The third prince disagreed: "This is just a minor incident. The prince himself did not make any mistakes. As time goes by, my father will forget about this matter. If he wants to trample the prince under his feet, he needs more fire."
The third prince leaned close to Liu Xiangling's ear and whispered something.
"I will listen to your Highness and go find my father right away."
"Ling'er, thank you for your hard work."
Liu Xiangling blushed with embarrassment: "Your Highness has treated me well, how could I let you down?"
……
Royal Palace
Queen Liu was furious and pointed at Liu Mei'er: "She is just a concubine. What's wrong with pampering her for a few days? Why are you so confused?"
Liu Meir was already feeling aggrieved. Even her own son was almost taken away. How could she remain calm?
"Aunt, you don't speak for me. If you give your eldest son to a concubine to raise, won't he become a bastard? How can he listen to me in the future if he hears my instigation?" Liu Meir winked at her mother beside her.
Madam Liu stepped forward and said, "Madam, Mei'er was a little reckless and shouldn't have hurt anyone, but when it comes to the child, Mei'er is not wrong."
"That's my grandson, too. I know that." Empress Liu angrily scolded, "If she hadn't killed Concubine Han's child, would the Crown Prince have done this?"
Queen Liu rubbed her brows and said to the old lady with suppressed anger, "The eldest house is already trying to win over people, but the prince is making a scene. What a mess!"
His words already expressed his dissatisfaction with the old lady.
"Such a big thing happened and no one noticed it. The whole family is fighting for power and making me a laughing stock."
Thinking of Liu Xiangling and Bo Yan'er chatting and laughing, Empress Liu was furious. She clenched her fists tightly and said, "Mother, we are all in the same boat. If the boat capsizes, no one can escape. That person is not your real grandson! Big brother is so confused!"
How could Old Lady Liu not understand the warning? She immediately said, "Don't worry, Madam. I will give your brother a good lecture. No one can compete with the Crown Prince for the throne."
The old lady turned around and looked at Madam Liu Er with a sinister look on her face: "The clothes are dirty, take the Crown Princess down to wash up, the Queen and I have some private words to talk about."
Madam Liu had served the old lady for so many years, so she naturally understood the meaning behind this look. She swallowed nervously and nodded in agreement.
Leading Liu Mei'er to the side hall, Liu Mei'er pouted and said reluctantly: "Aunt is partial. That vixen has bewitched the prince day and night, and even delayed government affairs. Aunt doesn't care and still punishes me. After all, the daughter-in-law is an outsider. Any talk of love is fake."
"Shut up!" Madam Liu couldn't stand it any longer and stepped forward to cover Liu Mei'er's mouth: "If the Queen hears this, she won't forgive you."
Liu Meir was also startled. She shrank her neck and sat aside in a huff.
"Mei'er, the Queen is naturally on your side. You are the Crown Princess. As for that so-called Concubine Han, she is just a toy. When the Crown Prince gets tired of her, he can get rid of her however he wants. At this critical moment, the Third Prince and the Crown Prince are fighting fiercely. The more you make trouble, the more you will drag down the East Palace and give the Third Prince a chance to take the throne. When that day comes, don't talk about Concubine Han. You will even kneel down and kowtow to that bitch Liu Xiangling!"
Under the persuasion of Madam Liu Er, Liu Meir's emotions gradually stabilized. She didn't want to kowtow to Liu Xiangling.
Don’t even think about it in this life.
"The Queen is far more cruel than you think. If you continue to make trouble, the Liu family may abandon you."
Madam Liu said this because she felt sorry for her daughter.
Liu Meir was so frightened that her eyes widened in horror and she looked at her mother in disbelief: "Why..."
"Your grandmother has already developed murderous intentions towards your aunt's family. If your uncle does not compromise, your aunt's funeral will be held in a few days. If you hinder the crown prince from ascending to the throne, you will not be an exception. Don't forget that there are still many girls waiting to be married in the Liu family."
Madam Liu held Liu Mei'er's hand tightly and whispered: "Good child, be patient. When the prince's position is stable, no one can shake you. It's okay to give her that illusory favor. Men always need to be coaxed. If you offend the prince, wouldn't it be more miserable to be lonely and cold in the future?"
Stimulated by Mrs. Liu's words, Liu Mei'er finally came to her senses. She swallowed nervously.
Thinking back on my own stupidity, I wanted to slap myself twice.
"I, I will go and apologize to my aunt and the prince right now." Liu Meir stood up.
Suddenly the door was opened, and Empress Liu's personal nanny came in with a serious face: "Crown Princess, the Empress wants you to come immediately."
Liu Meir's eyelids twitched.
"The prince suddenly fell into a coma. The imperial physician said it was caused by poisoning. Your hairpin was smeared with poison." said the nanny.
