How dare you have bad intentions towards them...

Haha, you are not overestimating your own abilities.

"What's wrong?" Li Tianze felt that there was something wrong with her aura.

"It's okay, let's talk about it when we get back."

The banquet was gradually coming to an end. Because of the Northern Frontier Emperor's attitude towards the two of them, few people would dare to disrespect them. He almost praised them.

If there were any, there were only a few princes who would look at them from time to time.

The fat and big-eared Second Prince wanted to make a few sarcastic remarks from time to time, but was secretly blocked by the Emperor of Northern Frontier.

"Alright, it's getting late. The two distinguished guests must be very tired after coming from such a long distance. I will invite you to the palace for a small gathering in a couple of days. There are many interesting places in the capital, and you two can walk around."

His words were like an imperial decree. With his words, no one would stop the two of them no matter where they went.

It's like a pass.

Leng Youran and Li Tianze also stood up and clasped their fists to express their gratitude.

Everyone left the palace one after another, and Leng Youran and Li Tianze were assigned to Li Shuai and the third prince.

"I told you not to come here. It would be better if you could stay at my place."

The Third Prince looked at the inn in front of him and didn't want to set foot in it at all.

"My wife and I appreciate the prince's kindness, but we are still used to staying in the inn."

Li Shuai also said, "Alright, Your Majesty, His Majesty still needs to see us. If You Ran and the others want to stay here, they can. It's not far from us."

The young couple should also have some private space.

When the Third Prince heard Li Shuai say the same thing, he sighed helplessly, "Alright, if you have anything to say, please let us know."

They had already formed a deep friendship along the way.

Although he is an idle prince, he still has this identity.

Even if he is useless, doesn't he still have an older brother, the Emperor?

We can't let these two people suffer injustice here.

"Okay, Your Highness, please go to the palace quickly. We can handle this here by ourselves." After saying this, he went to the guest room under the guidance of the innkeeper without waiting for the two to refuse.

Because of what the Third Prince and Li Shuai said, the shopkeeper also knew the identities of the two, and he kept smiling throughout the whole process for fear of neglecting them.

It was not until the two of them entered Room No. 1 and closed the door that the Third Prince gave some instructions to An Yi beside him with some concern, and then he returned to the palace with Li Shuai.

In the royal study

"Brother, what did you mean by that today? What did you mean by not keeping my sixth brother? Could it be that Father also knows about him..."

The Third Prince had a hard time convincing his Sixth Brother to kiss him.

Now that he knows that he is really not his brother, how can he not be horrified.

As soon as he entered the imperial study, he asked the doubts in his heart without waiting for the Emperor of Northern Frontier to speak.

This incident caused him to eat less food at the banquet.

"Well, Father has had some suspicions for a long time. However, Chen Wan'er is Chen Yao's sister after all. Because of Father's debt to Chen Yao, Father thought that as long as Chen Wan'er and her child are content, it would not matter if her child was given the title of a prince."

Chen Yao, the daughter of Chen Gongfu, supported her father in ascending the throne in his early years.

Chen Yao and the late emperor could be considered childhood sweethearts. When the late emperor ascended the throne, Chen Yao blocked a sword and saved his life.

Even though the late emperor later married their mother, he still felt guilty towards the Chen family and brought Chen Wan'er into the palace when Chen Gongfu passed away.

At first, the late emperor raised her as his sister, but Chen Wan'er had other thoughts at some point. When the late emperor went to see her after getting drunk, she climbed onto his dragon bed.

It was at that time that Chen Wan'er announced that she was pregnant.

Chen Wan'er was the only one left in the Chen family, so even though the late emperor felt a little uncomfortable, he did not blame her too much.

After she became pregnant, he took extra care of her and prepared a secluded yard for her.

After that, the late emperor would still visit her from time to time, but he never stayed overnight at her place.

Everyone knew that Chen Wan'er was adopted by the late queen because she was the same mother as Chen Yaoyi, so no one would mess with her.

Even though Chen Wan'er later gave birth to the sixth child and poisoned their mother, the late emperor only imprisoned her in the cold palace. It was not until his death that he ordered her to be buried with him.

It can be said that if Chen Wan'er had not committed suicide, her life would not be so difficult now.

Unfortunately.....

"Father is willing to accept it..." That green hat?

The Northern Frontier Emperor rolled his eyes at him. "Father, there's nothing we can do about it. We promised Minister Chen that we would take good care of her. Besides, didn't we take her away later?"

"That's what you said, but why didn't father tell me, so that..." He wouldn't be so worried about his sixth brother's affairs.

Since they are not your blood relatives, you naturally won’t feel hurt.

"Come on, if I let you know that you can be like this, don't you know that you are the best tool to paralyze the enemy?" The Emperor of Northern Frontier said bluntly, with disgust in his eyes.

Li Shuai stood quietly at the bottom, laughing in his heart as he listened to the conversation between the two.

Because he was still in the imperial study, he could only lower his head and hide the smile on his lips.

"Xiao Shuai, you should pay more attention to City Lord Leng. If it's really as you say, I'm sure Old Six will not let go of such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

"I understand. I will make arrangements once we leave the palace."

"Okay, then you go back first, and you stay here, Third Brother."

Li Shuai left, and the Third Prince looked at Li Shuai's back with envy.

There is no doubt that my brother will start preaching again.

As he expected.

"Third brother, you're not a child anymore. Now that Queen Mother is constantly accompanying the ancient Buddha with green lamps, you're the only one in the Imperial City that Queen Mother can't let go of. It's time for you to grow up and put away your worthless kindness. Not everyone deserves your kindness. And since you know about the sixth brother, I might as well tell you about the second and fourth brothers..."

"Royal brother, what do you mean? Could it be that they are not our father's either..." Before he could even utter the word "bloodline", he was hit on the head by a memorial from the Emperor of Northern Frontier.

"What are you thinking about?"

The Third Prince rubbed his aching forehead, raised his head and looked at the Northern Frontier Emperor with an innocent face, "Didn't my brother say that they..."

"I'm talking about their business, not their life experience..." The Northern Frontier Emperor held his forehead with his hand, his eyes full of disappointment.

If he wasn't afraid that his third brother would be deceived by a few people, he really wouldn't bother to say anything.

But who can blame his third brother for not understanding unless things are made clear to him?

"Just listen quietly and don't speak."

The Third Prince nodded obediently and stood aside, listening quietly.

I don’t know what the Emperor of Northern Frontier said to him, but the Third Prince’s eyes were red when he came out of the palace.

After leaving the palace, I felt for the first time that the night in the capital was not as quiet as before.

It seems calm, but it is actually turbulent.

He looked back in the direction of the palace, his eyes full of apology.
