Chapter 577 Suspicion of each other, no suspicion of her
"No, no, it's not your fault. It's your mother who failed to protect you. Why did you suddenly come to the cold palace? Did your father ask you to come?" A glimmer of hope rose in the eyes of Concubine Luo.
She was now staying in the cold palace, and could not hear any information from the outside world. Even if some palace maids and eunuchs occasionally came to the cold palace and wanted to inquire about the news outside, they would be driven away with disgust.
"Mother, I will help you sit down for a while, and then I will slowly tell you about the situation outside."
"it is good."
The Fourth Prince gave a brief account of what had happened during this period. After listening to it, Concubine Luo could not calm down for a long time.
"So, so many things happened outside. Fortunately, God has eyes and made the Queen Mother lose hope. If the Cao family really couldn't find a suitable girl to enter the palace, they would definitely not choose to support you. This is also an opportunity for us. You must behave very well in front of the Queen Mother and listen to her in everything to gain her trust in you. You can only rely on the Queen Mother, understand?"
"Don't worry, mother, your son understands."
"With the Queen Mother's support, mother is relieved." Concubine Luo looked the Fourth Prince up and down, her eyes full of reluctance, "You should go back soon, the cold palace is not the place for you."
"Mother, the Queen Mother asked me to come. I will stay with you for a while longer." The Fourth Prince pleaded softly.
"No need. Staying longer or shorter makes no difference. In the future, don't take the initiative to ask to come and see me. I believe that one day, you will be able to take me out of here and give me the most honorable identity and status again."
"Mother, don't worry, this day will come!"
The Fourth Prince left reluctantly under the gaze of his mother.
I kept reminding myself in my heart.
He will never let go of anyone who hurts his mother and the Luo family.
The Queen, the Third Prince, Ji Chuhe...all of these people will pay the price!
……
When the news that the Queen Mother had brought the Fourth Prince into the palace reached the Queen's ears, the Queen put down the pen she was copying scriptures with and a slight smile appeared at the corner of her lips.
"Is it him? The Queen Mother really knows how to take advantage of the situation."
"It seems that the assassination of the Fourth Prince was also arranged by the Queen Mother. Otherwise, what excuse would the Queen Mother find to bring the Fourth Prince back to the palace? The funny thing is that the Emperor actually agreed. No wonder the Emperor deposed Concubine Luo, killed Marquis Zhenyuan and Luo Heng, but was reluctant to touch the Fourth Prince. It turns out that the Emperor really favors the Fourth Prince in his heart."
The queen suddenly laughed, "Anyone who wants to compete with my son will never live!"
The queen had been enduring for too long, and now that she was finally getting a taste of indulgence, she couldn't stop herself. The feeling of being able to do whatever she wanted was so wonderful!
When she becomes the queen mother, she will never live her life by relying on anyone else's wishes!
……
In the imperial study, the emperor prepared an edict to reward the three armies and handed it out.
"Pass on my order, let Rong Yulan continue to garrison the northern border and deal with a series of matters related to the surrender of the Hu bandits. In addition, Gao Jin will lead 80,000 troops back to the court."
"Yes." Chao Sihai responded immediately.
"Chao Sihai, the person who assassinated the Fourth Prince has not been found yet?" the Emperor suddenly asked in a deep voice.
This issue seems to be of greater concern to the emperor than the affairs of the northern border.
Chao Sihai immediately perked up his alertness, "Your Majesty, we are still investigating. It seems that the assassin has disappeared from the face of the earth."
"Who do you think arranged this assassination?"
"Your Majesty, could it be the Queen again?" Chao Sihai guessed boldly.
"I now feel that I am not the queen."
"Could it be the Empress Dowager?" Chao Sihai made another bold guess.
"Not necessarily." The emperor shook his head. "What has Ji Chuhe been busy with recently?"
"Your Majesty, after the Crown Prince's wife recognized her daughter, she hired a teacher for the child, and sometimes even taught her personally. These were all witnessed by the people stationed in the Crown Prince's Mansion. The Crown Prince's wife has almost never left the Crown Prince's Mansion."
"Where is Xiao Yan'an?" the emperor asked again.
"The prince has been obsessed with cockfighting for a few days. He has been looking for the strongest cockfighting king recently. He even spent tens of thousands of taels to buy a good cockfighting cock! He takes his own chicken to participate in cockfighting competitions every day and has won many times."
The emperor immediately gave up the idea of doubting Xiao Yan'an.
Suspecting Xiao Yanan is simply a waste of time.
Would Ji Chuhe give up such a good opportunity and continue to be obsessed with Xiao Yan'an? There was no love between them, and someone like Ji Chuhe would definitely make the most rational choice.
The emperor gradually dispelled his suspicions about Xiao Yanan and Ji Chuhe, and still felt that the person responsible for this matter was either the queen or the queen mother.
He is now in his prime, and they can't wait to appoint him as a crown prince!
Are you hoping that he will die soon?
……
At the prince's residence, the teacher has already started teaching Yun'er.
In order to cultivate Yun'er, Gao Jin gave her some education when she was young. She could already recognize some words and write simple characters.
It is easier for Madam to teach.
After just one class, Yuner had already finished learning all the plans for this month.
The Master was introduced by Marquis Wuyang and was also Marquis Wuyang's disciple. He was overjoyed to meet such a disciple.
I sorted out Yuner's homework from the past few days and gave it to Ji Chuhe for review.
Ji Chuhe looked at the words on the paper. Although they were written very awkwardly, they were not ugly at all.
Some children, when they first start learning to write, their handwriting is so ugly that it is unreadable.
The writing by Yuner gives people a sense of freshness, and there is not a single mistake in the whole picture.
This shows how hard this child works.
"Thanks to the Master's teaching, Yun'er has made such rapid progress. Mianzhu, bring me the gift I prepared for the Master."
"Yes." Mianzhu immediately brought the things.
"Ma'am, this is embarrassing."
"Master, you are so polite. Please accept it. In the future, there will be two more children in the mansion who will need your care."
"Then I will respectfully obey your command. Madam, please rest assured to leave the young masters of the mansion to me. I will certainly not let you down and will teach these young masters well." The teacher also vowed.
"Then I will have to rely on you from now on!" Ji Chuhe responded politely.
"You are too polite, Madam. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave. Tomorrow is a day off, and the young lady can also take a rest. She works too hard on weekdays and hardly takes a rest."
"Okay, I'll remind her."
After the teacher left, Ji Chuhe immediately asked Mianzhu, "Where is Yun'er?"
"It seems that she is in her room. She borrowed a book from me two days ago. I feel that the eldest lady's love of learning is not inferior to that of the former lady."
