Zhou Shiyue had never had much hope for the queen.

What other abilities could someone have who could think of sending such a maid to the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace?

It was probably because he was influenced by the people around him, and before he even understood his current situation, he rashly wanted to interfere in the prince's marriage.

After living in seclusion for so many years, she finally figured out that she shouldn't force herself to have the emperor's exclusive favor, but now she's fallen into another vicious circle of competition?

Do you want Zhou Ze to suppress other princes?

This IQ is really touching.

Zhou Shiyue has protected the prince for so many years, and he would definitely not let the queen use her status as the prince's biological mother to do something bad at this time.

"Prince Jin, I am your sister-in-law!"

The queen was really angry.

In the past, Prince Jin was still young and full of youthful energy. He didn’t understand many things, so it would have been fine for him to just scold her. But now he is an adult!

You have to understand the rules, right? You have to understand your identity, right?

How dare you be so rude to her!

When the Crown Prince heard how rude the Prince of Jin was to her, he just sat there without saying a word, not protecting his mother at all!

Nanny Huan was right. If she didn't leave, regardless of the prince, her son would probably treat others as his elders.

Zhou Ze is her son, whom she gave birth to at the risk of her life. How could he be treated as someone else's son?

"Ah."

Zhou Shiyue chuckled mockingly.

"If you were in charge of the Eastern Palace, I would probably be sincere in calling you Imperial Sister-in-law. But, Imperial Sister-in-law, would you please think carefully about what you have been doing for the past ten years?"

"Don't you scoff at the position of Queen? The Han family?" Zhou Shiyue knew who Han Suxin was when he heard her name. "Your sister-in-law's family, right? If your brother hadn't been cleaning up their mess for so many years, the Han family would have disappeared from the capital long ago."

"The Han family now is nothing but a rotten shell. You actually want to choose such a princess for your son. Are you worried that the burden on his shoulders is not heavy enough? Are you worried that the road he walks on is not a swamp and is not heavy enough?"

"And Changning. You haven't seen Changning in all these years, right? You don't know anything about her arrogance and bullying of my princess, right? You want to push this damned girl onto Aze, what are you thinking? Come on, tell me, I really can't figure it out."

"Prince Jin," the Queen gritted her teeth, "you are too protective of your own shortcomings. Just because Changning bullied your future princess, you say she is worthless."

Zhou Shiyue: “…”

He suddenly clapped his hands.

"Sister-in-law, I'm convinced by your focus. After all this talk, you've only grasped this key point, right? What if you could go out and find out more about Changning?"

Is he protecting his own people?

Okay, just think of him as protecting his own shortcomings, what's wrong with that?

"These two people, alone, would be a disaster, and you even paired them up with Zhou Ze."

The prince pursed his lips, feeling indescribably uncomfortable.

He suddenly felt a little guilty.

Lu Zhaoling had just returned, and the emperor's uncle was obviously anxious to see her, but for his sake, he rushed back to accompany her to meet his mother.

If he had known it would be like this, he should not have wasted the time spent with the emperor's uncle and aunt.

He is not a child anymore, why does he need his uncle to accompany him for such a small matter?

"Uncle, I'm sorry." Zhou Shiyue understood the prince's sudden apology.

He reached out and patted the prince's shoulder.

"Imperial sister-in-law, I call you my imperial sister-in-law, so you should at least act like one. For so many years, you have never cared about his lifelong affairs, so don't get involved now."

Zhou Shiyue simply said it clearly. They didn't need the queen to intervene at this critical juncture.

"If you want to return to Fengyi Palace, you can have someone report it to the Emperor. After you return, you can act cool in front of the concubines in the harem and take care of the mess in the harem, or you can pester the Emperor to argue about your grudges again. That's fine."

The queen's face turned pale and blue.

How dare the King of Jin say such rude things to her?

What you said is extremely treasonous.

But he said it so naturally, as if he was not afraid at all that these words would reach the ears of the emperor or the concubines in the harem.

"But don't worry about Aze's affairs." After saying this, Zhou Shiyue grabbed the two portraits and the two letters and tore them up in a few seconds.

He glanced at the dishes on the table again and clicked his tongue.

"It's all vegetarian. I want to eat meat."

He stood up and said to the prince, "Shall we go?"

The prince also stood up and nodded.

"Uncle, I'll go back with you."

He bowed to the Queen again and said, "Mother, please enjoy your meal. Your son and I will be leaving first."

Zhou Shiyue had already walked out with his hands behind his back.

The prince pursed his lips, turned around and followed him out.

The attendant and Shuiyue didn't think twice and quickly chased after him. Xiangrou, on the other hand, was shocked and confused at the moment. She looked at Nanny Huan and asked in a low voice, "Auntie, what about me?"

She is also a member of the Eastern Palace now. Does she want to go out with us?

Nanny Huan glared at her and said, "Follow me."

Why are you so stupid?

She was now a maidservant of the Crown Prince, so naturally she had to follow him. If she didn't follow him now, wouldn't that tell the Crown Prince that she was considered a member of the Buddhist Temple?

Xiangrou then lifted her skirt and hurried after him.

The moonlight outside was a little pale at this moment.

The prince followed the Prince of Jin and felt a little sad when he saw his uncle's shadow getting longer and covering half of his own shadow.

After walking for a while, Zhou Shiyue looked sideways at him and patted him on the back.

"Why are you hanging your head? Straighten up for me!"

I just don't like seeing him like this.

The prince straightened his back and said, "Yes, uncle."

"Why, do you expect so much from her? Haven't all these years made you stronger?"

The prince smiled awkwardly, a little self-deprecatingly.

"Not really. I just feel that even Zhou Ling has my mother taking care of him and guiding him, so I should be no worse than Zhou Ling. Why does my father dislike him and my mother dislike him?"

These words made Zhou Shiyue feel a little soft-hearted.

He looked at the prince again, then looked up at the moon and said, "Don't worry, by this time next month, you will not only be loved by the Emperor's uncle, but also loved by the Emperor's aunt."

"Are you happy? Are you excited?"

Prince: "..."

Uncle, are you comforting me or showing off?

"Alright, I haven't even eaten yet. Let's go to the East Palace and have someone make something delicious. I'll have a couple of drinks with you."

Zhou Shiyue was also unhappy. If he had known the queen would be like this, he might as well have taken Zhou Ze to Huai Garden. Tonight, a bunch of people in Huai Garden were eating and drinking, and they were drinking the imperial incense brought from the Prince of Jin's Mansion.

I wonder how lively it is right now.

The uncle and nephew are all alone here.

Huaiyuan is indeed very lively.
