Chapter 22 Check the Fifth Prince

"Dong Liu Guo has always loved his granddaughter, and my father has always valued the Liu family. Marrying a granddaughter from the Liu family will only be good for you."

"But the Liu family and the aristocratic family are at odds with each other."

Li Jing: "..."

Concubine Xian realized that her voice was a bit loud, so she lowered her voice and said, "Besides the Liu family, is there any other reason?"

Li Jing picked up the tea on the table and took a sip with a smile on her lips: "The mother-in-law wants her son to marry a daughter of a noble family, but have you ever thought about what the father thinks? Regarding Fang Guifei, the father has not set foot in Jian'an Palace for many days.

Yes, does the mother-in-law want to remain in a stalemate?"

Concubine Xian was caught off guard and her heart suddenly shook.

Since the death of Concubine Fang, Your Majesty has not set foot in Jian'an Palace for two months. Your Majesty has to go to Jiaofang Palace every first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year because it is an ancestral rule.

Rumors had begun to spread in the palace that she had fallen out of favor, and even the Wang family had sent word that they wanted to select a cousin of the same clan to enter the palace.

If this continues, mother and son will be doomed.

"It's getting late, and Aunt Shang has worked hard to take care of the two children. It's enough for me to be here. You can go down first."

After a long period of struggle, Concubine Xian finally agreed, "You can marry her, but you must divorce her if necessary in the future, and I will let people watch. After we get married, you can't let her give birth to your child."

"

Li Jing's eyes were as deep as ancient pools, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "What if we are no longer here?"

Li Jing: ...I'm afraid this is a bit difficult because it already exists.

He can't wait to see that woman now and hear what will happen next.

Thinking of Sister Rong and Brother Ye, Li Jing had a smile on her face.

Nanny Shang didn't want to say much about the master's affairs, so she withdrew.

"How was the check?"

Aunt Shang guessed that Cui Yuexi was the child's biological mother, but she was never sure.

The masters responded with a busy smile.

Xingchuan asked, "Your Majesty, the fifth prince is dedicated to seeking immortality and has never participated in these things. What's the use of checking him out? Besides, the relationship between the fifth prince and you has always been very good. Concubine Hui is from a low background, so it won't be her turn no matter what."

Him?"

"Three years ago, that is, the day when the master's accident happened, someone arranged for some beautiful women in Fo'an Temple. They were killed for unknown reasons afterwards. Their bodies have been found in the mountains behind Fo'an Temple."

Aunt Shang replied with a smile on her face, "Be obedient. I have seen many children. I have never seen anyone's children be so obedient. Your Majesty is blessed."

What's more, Sister Rong and Brother Ye looked so similar to Li Jing when she was a child.

The two children have not separated rooms since they entered the house and have always slept together. At this time, they are leaning against each other with sweet smiles.

In the past, Li Jing never put the fifth prince in the struggle for the throne. Now that he thinks about it, there are many things that seem to have nothing to do with the fifth prince, but in fact they are inextricably linked to him.

"Sister Rong and Brother Ye also asked about Miss Cui. It can be seen that they are very worried about her."

Li Jing casually picked up a piece of paper with the names of several princes written on it.

Concubine Hui also lived up to her expectations. She gave birth to five princes in the first year of entering the palace, and then gave birth to two more princesses. She was the concubine with the most children in the harem.

Aunt Shang is Li Jing's person. Although Li Jing did not directly tell the life experience of the two children, the servants serving in the palace are not stupid. After a long time, they will inevitably make guesses.

The master was already prepared, but when he saw Cui Yuexi's homework, he still laughed twice.

Xingchuan said: "Master, we have some clues about what happened three years ago. At that time, the master was addicted to a drug after he left. This drug has an aphrodisiac effect, but he was completely unaware of it afterwards."

Li Jing stayed with the two children for a while, and did not leave until Xingchuan appeared.

The night was hazy, and a few dark clouds drifted over to cover the moon's light.

"..."

Over the years, although the emperor's love for Concubine Hui was not as good as that of Concubine Xian, he was indeed good to the fifth prince.

Li Jing has been getting along with the two children for a long time, and he likes them more and more. He now understands why Cui Yuexi is so worried about the children.

No wonder he can't remember what happened three years ago.

There were many people in the Liu family's school, and Cui Yuexi prepared her homework in advance and gave it to her master.

He drew a circle on the name of the fifth prince with a pen, "Check further, mainly the fifth prince!"

Li Jing left the palace without even taking a sip of the Four Gentlemen Soup when she left.

Li Jing's worries were swept away, "Are they still obedient today?"

Concubine Xian was a little tired. She wanted to think carefully about how to tell His Majesty, "You should go back first."

Mrs. Shen personally accompanied Cui Yuexi to the girls' school. She smiled and said to the master, "This is Cui Yuexi, a cousin of the Liu family. She will also come back to attend classes in the future. She is new here. I will ask the masters to take care of her."

If it was just the eldest prince who did it, there should be more than this.

"Now it seems that everything is under the arrangement of the eldest prince. If Cui Yuexi had not been plotted by others and happened to appear at Fo'an Temple, the master would have been ruined and even his life would have been lost."

Concubine Hui entered the palace because the Queen Mother was seriously ill. Yu donated a thousand years of Tai Sui to cure the Queen Mother's illness. Although the Queen Mother still passed away two years later, the emperor still missed Yu.

"In addition, Wu Zuo found a kind of poison on the bodies of these women, a poison that can enter the body of men through the bodies of women."

"My subordinates followed this clue and found out the identities of these women. They found out that these women were given to the eldest prince. The master went to the eldest prince's appointment three years ago before something happened."

How could the battle for the throne be simple?

Xingchuan's eyes widened and he thought for a moment, "I'll go investigate later."

"Good morning, ladies and gentlemen." Cui Yuexi stepped forward and saluted.

The biological mother of the fifth prince, Concubine Hui, was from the Yu family in Henan. The Yu family was naturally not in the spotlight compared to big families like the Wang family and the Xie family, but it was still considered a third-class family.

"..."

"Any more?"

Li Jing untied her cloak and handed it to Aunt Shang, then walked into the room quietly.

Back at the palace, the two children were already asleep. Nanny Shang, who had been waiting for a long time, knew that he was thinking about the two children. "Sister Cai Rong and brother Ye said that they would wait for the prince to come back, but they couldn't bear it anymore and went to bed."

.”

The wives finally had smiles on their faces. Who doesn’t like a girl who understands etiquette?

Mrs. Shen carefully warned Cui Yuexi: "Yuexi, if there is anything you don't understand in the future, just ask Cousin Wen."

Thinking of her daughter's hostility towards Cui Yuexi, Shen changed her mind again, "Maybe ask cousin Fei."

Sister Fei's homework was not very good, so Shen quickly said, "You can ask Sister Lu, her homework is not bad either."

Seeing her aunt worrying about herself, Cui Yuexi smiled sweetly, "Yes, I will be obedient."
