After marrying the heirless prince, I gave birth to three children

Chapter 248 Something happened to the 3rd prince!

Concubine Shu buried her head in the emperor's neck, her low voice carrying a hint of grievance, "Your Majesty...are you mocking me?"

A smile appeared in the emperor's eyes, "My beloved concubine, why would you think so?"

Concubine Shu bit her lower lip lightly and said shyly, "In the past, Your Majesty always had Sister Li Fei by his side."

"Even though I admire Your Majesty in my heart, I don't understand Your Majesty's heart..." Concubine Shu lowered her eyes with a sad face.

The emperor hugged the man distressedly and said, "It's my fault."

Concubine Shu looked up, her face full of joy. "As long as I know that Your Majesty has me in his heart... I won't have any other thoughts."

"I just want to spend more time with Your Majesty. Even if Sister Li Fei blames me, I am not afraid."

Concubine Shu took the initiative to reach out and hugged the emperor tightly, pressing her cheek against his warm and broad chest.

The young woman's warm, youthful, and energetic body pressed against his...

The emperor's heart softened and he embraced her lovingly. "So, it was my fault before. I made my beloved concubine misunderstand me."

Concubine Shu shook her head, "It has nothing to do with Your Majesty. It's just that I'm not brave enough..."

Concubine Shu raised her eyes and asked pitifully, "Your Majesty... don't you like me to be close to Your Majesty?"

She looked extremely pitiful.

The emperor quickly said, "How could that be? I like such a beloved concubine very much."

The emperor picked up Concubine Shu by the waist and walked towards the inner room...

Concubine Shu buried her head in the emperor's chest in embarrassment, her slightly lowered eyes filled with coldness.

at the same time.

Weiyang Palace.

After receiving the emperor's reply, Concubine Li angrily smashed everything in the palace again, but as she fell out of favor, the things sent by the Imperial Household Department were no longer as good as before.

There were even fewer things, and soon Concubine Li could only stand in the empty palace and feel angry.

Your Majesty, how could Your Majesty treat her like this?

It's not like she hadn't used this method before, but His Majesty would always come to see her...

"Your Majesty really didn't come?" Concubine Li asked the palace maid.

The palace maid knelt on the ground, trembling, and whispered, "To answer your Majesty, the lights in Yanxi Palace... have been turned off."

In other words, the emperor and the concubine have gone to bed.

"Your Majesty, how could you do this to me?" Concubine Li immediately screamed out loud, she was very uneasy, and her eyes and expression looked a little crazy.

"Impossible! His Majesty can't do this to me! His Majesty has me in his heart. His Majesty said that I am the most important. How could His Majesty do this... How could he do this..."

Princess Li was obviously very upset. The more she spoke, the more aggrieved she felt and she wanted to cry.

"Back then, for His Majesty, I was willing to do anything! His Majesty said he would never let me down..."

Although His Majesty had other concubines in the past, she was the one He loved and cared about the most!

Even when the Li family and Xiao Hong were punished, His Majesty had sent people to spread rumors to appease her.

If it weren't for her, why would His Majesty be in such a difficult situation?

But now... Your Majesty has really changed.

It’s all because of Concubine Shu, that damn bitch!

Concubine Li went crazy, and no one in the entire Weiyang Palace dared to approach her. Everyone waited silently outside the palace, and could only vaguely hear some inaudible sounds.

The intoxicating incense burning in the fireplace in the hall was Concubine Li's favorite scent.

The more she thought about it, the sadder she became. She stood up on the spot and walked out.

She is going to find His Majesty!

She didn't believe that His Majesty would think that Concubine Shu was more important than her, unless His Majesty told her in person...

Concubine Li left Weiyang Palace and went straight to Yanxi Palace. She was walking on the palace road late at night without even wearing shoes or socks.

After running barefoot for a distance, Concubine Li suddenly slowed down.

The summer night breeze made her originally drowsy and emotionally overwhelmed mind become much clearer.

What is she going to do now?

Your Majesty has been seduced by that bitch Shufei. If she makes trouble now, it will only backfire!

No matter what she does, it's better to go over and make trouble...

Concubine Li paused, turned around, put on the shoes and socks brought by the palace maids, and said with a cold face, "Let someone thoroughly investigate the Weiyang Palace!"

She suspected that someone had tampered with her emotions because they were suddenly out of control!

Thinking of this, Concubine Li couldn't sleep.

These people were so bold that they actually reached into her Weiyang Palace... It must be Concubine Shu! Apart from that little bitch, she didn't want to do anything else!

Concubine Li's confidant personally investigated the matter thoroughly, and soon, Concubine Li learned the result.

"Your Majesty, someone has added something to the incense in Weiyang Palace. It's something that can amplify people's emotions. The greater the emotional fluctuations, the greater the stimulation from the incense..."

The palace maid lowered her head and dared not look at Concubine Li.

However, Concubine Li understood that the reason why she behaved so abnormally today and did such a shameful thing was all because of this incense!

Concubine Li looked extremely ugly.

The maid whispered, "Your Highness, should we inform His Majesty about this? If His Majesty knew, he would surely feel sorry for you and come personally..."

"No need." Concubine Li refused coldly, "Your Majesty has been seduced by that little bitch, Concubine Shu. Even if I go and complain now, I'm afraid His Majesty won't trust me."

She tried to calm down and said, "Since Concubine Shu has harmed me so much, I naturally cannot pretend to be unaware."

"Return everything in here to Concubine Shu..." A cold light flashed in Concubine Li's eyes. "Also, do one more thing..."

Concubine Shu whispered instructions in the maid's ear. The maid listened with a changing expression, and finally she could only respond with "yes".

Only then did Concubine Li smile.

She is now waiting for Concubine Shu to make a fool of herself in front of His Majesty!

……

The next day, early in the morning.

Xie Yao stayed up a little late to guard Xiao Ji last night, so she inevitably got up a little later than usual.

She was woken up by Zhu Qing before she even woke up.

"Crown Princess, something bad has happened!"

"Something happened to the Third Prince!"

Xie Yao was originally very sleepy, but after hearing Zhu Qing's words, she immediately became alert and opened her eyes. "What happened?"

Zhu Qing said, "Last night... the Third Prince didn't return home. The people in the Third Prince's mansion thought he was staying in the other courtyard. This morning... the Third Prince was found in the downtown area. And..."

Zhu Qing's eyes flickered, and he looked troubled. He lowered his voice and said, "The Third Prince... was abolished."

what?

Xie Yao was a little confused. What did it mean to be disabled?

Seeing this, Zhu Qing said more directly, "The Third Prince is just like Song Wenbo. From now on, he will never be humane again."

"When he was found in the downtown area, he was completely naked. I'm afraid everyone in the capital knows about this..."

Xie Yao: “…”

What a big excitement!

The person who did this is really... cruel.

"I just received news that His Majesty is furious and has ordered the Marquis of Zhenbei and the Junior Secretary of the Dali Temple to thoroughly investigate this matter. The perpetrator must be found within three days!"

"Right now, I'm afraid all the doctors in the capital are in the Third Prince's residence..."

As Zhu Qing finished speaking, the voice of the Prince's Mansion steward came from outside the door, "Crown Princess, people from the Third Prince's Mansion are here."

Xie Yao raised her eyebrows. Coming at this time?

But she quickly guessed the purpose of the people from the Third Prince's Mansion, and said, "Please invite them in."

Soon, the steward of the Third Prince's Mansion hurried in and knelt in front of Xie Yao without saying a word, "Please save me, Crown Princess!"

"Crown Princess, my prince has been attacked by thieves and his life is in danger. The prince's doctor is very skilled. I dare to borrow your help to save his life!"

The steward kowtowed repeatedly, "Please have mercy on me, Crown Princess, please have mercy on me!"

Sure enough, he came to borrow the palace doctor.

Xie Yao looked sullenly at the steward of the Third Prince's Mansion, "Do you know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still in a coma?"

The steward of the Third Prince's Mansion had a slightly stiff expression.

He naturally knew about this matter. Not only him, but everyone in the capital knew about it. But... at the moment, the Third Prince's matter was more important.

After all, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been in a coma for several days. If he could be saved, he would have been saved long ago. Besides, even if... there is nothing wrong with it.

But of course I can't say that.

The steward kowtowed without saying anything and said, "Please, Crown Princess, save my prince's life. Please, Crown Princess, save his life! Please, Crown Princess..."

He begged so pitifully that if someone who didn't know the situation saw it, it would seem like Xie Yao was taking advantage of his power to bully others.

Xie Yao didn't give in, and only said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still in a coma, I'm afraid he needs the help of the palace doctor."

The steward seemed not to understand what Xie Yao said. He continued to kowtow and beg for mercy, insisting on borrowing the palace doctor from the Prince's Mansion.

At this moment, the steward of the Crown Prince's Mansion walked in again with a troubled look on his face, "Crown Princess...someone is coming from the palace."

However, Taifu Xuan entered the palace early in the morning and pleaded with His Majesty.

The young eunuch who came to the palace at this moment was ordered to convey the emperor's decree, ordering the palace physician of the Crown Prince's Mansion to go to the Third Prince's Mansion to consult for the Third Prince.

After hearing His Majesty's order, Xie Yao could only have red eyes and an unwilling look on her face as she asked someone to call out the court physician, send the court physician out, and ordered the Prince's guards to follow and protect her.

As soon as the group left, the reluctance on Xie Yao's face disappeared instantly, and her expression became cold and indifferent.

The Third Prince, Grand Tutor Xuan, and even... Your Majesty.

Even when he knew that His Highness was unconscious and needed the care of the court physician, he still resolutely ordered someone to call the court physician away.

Its heart is awkward!

Xie Yao asked Zhu Qing in a deep voice, "Can Xiao An's vitals be reconnected?"

Zhu Qing shook his head, "I'm afraid not."

Xie Yao sneered, "He's useless!" She wanted to see how long Xiao An could remain so rampant.

"Have you found out who did it?" Xie Yao asked, but she had a basic guess in her mind, and now she was asking more about evidence.

Zhu Qing shook his head. "The person who did it was very secretive. I haven't received any news yet."

Xie Yao said: "I'm afraid His Majesty will doubt us..."

Xie Yao didn't think that such suspicion was a mean-spirited one; it was a completely reasonable guess.

After all, Xiao Ning's incident just happened.

Zhu Qing became anxious when she heard this, "Crown Princess, what should we do?"

Xie Yao shook her head. "It's just a guess. Without evidence, I won't do anything for now."

After all, the prince was still in a coma, and something had just happened to the two children.

Xie Yao comforted Zhu Qing, but her tightly furrowed brows did not relax. After all, there was nothing she could do except analyze and guess.

Thunder, rain, and dew are all your grace.

Rights... what a wonderful thing!

……

Imperial Palace, Yangxin Hall.

The incident involving the third prince Xiao An had caused a huge stir, and the emperor naturally knew about it clearly. It was naturally the emperor's order to let the palace physician of the prince's mansion go to see Xiao An.

At this moment, he was sitting on the dragon throne, his frowning brows full of worry.

"How's the situation at the Third Prince's Mansion?" The emperor's voice was full of fatigue. He was really tired.

Li Dajian glanced at the emperor cautiously and whispered, "Your Majesty, the situation with the Third Prince...is not good."

Although the Third Prince's Mansion had not been made public, such a matter could not be concealed from Li Dajian.

"The Third Prince's... blood has been completely severed. It's impossible to reconnect..." Eunuch Li hesitated, "The doctors have tried their best to save His Highness's life."

"Cough, cough, cough!" The emperor started coughing on the spot, his cheeks turning red.

Li Dajian quickly served tea and said, "Your Majesty, please take care of your health."

The emperor waved his hands repeatedly, his expression very grim. "Tell the imperial physician to do his best to save the third son's life."

Li Dajian responded and immediately turned around to explain the matter.

Soon, Li Dajian returned again and said, "Your Majesty, I have already passed on the order. Please be at ease."

The emperor shook his head, "The third brother...can't do it anymore."

His attitude has always been very clear. He used to be optimistic about the third prince becoming the next crown prince, and even paved the way for Xiao An, wanting to win over Pei Chen for him.

But now...

Xiao An has completely lost the qualifications to compete for the throne.

The emperor cannot be a "eunuch".

When the emperor said this, Li Dajian naturally did not dare to express his opinion, and he didn't even dare to breathe.

This matter concerns the foundation of the country, and it is not something he can comment on.

The emperor's expression kept changing, clearly analyzing the others...

Xiao Hong is now a commoner. The Fourth Prince is suffering from a fire poison and loses his mind in the middle of every month. The Fifth Prince is only four years old this year...

"Who else?" The emperor sighed, his voice full of melancholy and frustration.

Li Dajian immediately said, "Long live Your Majesty. I dare to say that Your Majesty's worries are premature."

"Ah."

The emperor chuckled and glanced at Li Dajian, "You are really good at making me happy."

Li Dajian immediately said with a sincere face: "Your Majesty, please understand. Every word I say is sincere!"

The emperor said nothing more, just shook his head slightly.

Live forever?

Is there anyone in this world who can live forever?

He knew the condition of his own body clearly. Although his elder sister had protected him since he was a child, he still suffered a lot and was the victim of many plots.

In recent years...his health has been getting worse.

If not, he wouldn't have hurriedly set his sights on Xiao An. He paused and said, "Xiao Wu has started learning this year, right?"

"Your Majesty, that's right," Li Dajian replied quickly. "The Fifth Prince should be studying in the Imperial Study right now."

The emperor stood up and said, "I'll go and take a look."

Eunuch Li immediately followed with a respectful attitude.

Royal study room.

The emperor was standing outside the hall and saw the little kid sitting inside at a glance. The fifth prince was raised by Concubine Shu and became plump and white, with a baby's milky smell.

But at this moment, his sitting posture was particularly serious.

A pair of big, twinkling eyes stared at the teacher sitting above him, and the expression on his little face was serious and focused.

The emperor couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips slightly when he saw the fifth prince's performance.

Soon, the fifth prince finished his get out of class. He walked out of the hall and immediately smiled when he saw the emperor and ran towards him quickly.

Then, before throwing himself into the emperor's arms, he stopped and bowed respectfully, saying, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you, Father."
