Everyone in my harem is talented

Chapter 401 Story

Hanzhang Palace.

Noble Concubine Yu Yu Sheyue laughed so hard that she fell backwards, and a crystal tear seeped out of the corner of her eye.

She sat up straight and wiped her slightly red eyes with a handkerchief.

"Alas, the Thirteenth Prince, how pitiful!"

Noble Concubine Yu Yu Sheyue rested her arm on the table in front of her. Her wide sleeves slipped down, revealing a piece of her white arm. She sighed softly.

"The queen is kind-hearted."

The palace maid and eunuch beside him complimented him.

"A kind heart?" Yu Sheyue shook her head slightly.

"The Thirteenth Prince is not your biological son. You feel sad and regretful because of his death. Isn't that kindhearted?"

Yu Guipin Yu Sheyue rested her head on her arm and said lazily, "Okay, Aunt Shuangxu, please tell me why the eldest and ninth princes would murder a child who poses no threat at all."

This rumor is really outrageous.

Yu Sheyue closed her eyes slightly, wearing an elegant plain long dress. Her hair was simply tied up with a few strands of hair scattered down. She wore a little makeup, which added a touch of casual beauty to her.

Ever since her grandmother, Princess Qin Man of the State of Jin, passed away, her father, brothers and sisters have all been helpless, and the family has been relying on her, the daughter who is the empress in the palace, to keep up appearances.

Unfortunately, she has never had any children, but fortunately, His Majesty is willing to pamper her.

She also registered the third prince Qin Mingjin, who had lost his biological mother, under her name so that she would not have to be crowded in Jing'an Palace with other concubines and imperial concubines.

If the third prince has good fortune in the future, it will also be her good fortune.

This good fortune could not be taken away even if Li Xihua were reborn. However, the Third Prince, who was calm and intelligent in his childhood, became more and more like a ball of temperless cotton as he grew older.

Why does Your Majesty like a ball of cotton?

I feel more and more that my future is hopeless.

Yu Sheyue placed her other hand on her lower abdomen.

She has been blessed with good fortune for all these years, so why has she never been able to conceive a child?

"I wonder if your Majesty has ever heard of the story of the First Emperor?"

Shuang Xu took the tea tray from the palace maid, took the snacks and tea on the tray one by one, and placed it on the corner of the table to prevent Concubine Yu from accidentally knocking it over and scalding herself.

"Stories about the First Emperor? There are so many stories about the First Emperor. I wonder which one you are talking about, aunt?" Yu Sheyue raised her eyes slightly, without moving.

"Of course it's the story of the eighteenth son born to Hu Ji who succeeded to the throne." Shuang Xu paused and continued:

“It is said that the Ninth Prince was worried that his brother, the Thirteenth Prince, who was even more favored than him, would seize the Crown Prince position that he had not yet obtained, so he instructed the First Prince to eliminate the threat for him.

Some say that the eldest prince killed his youngest and most favored brother, the thirteenth prince, in order to curry favor with the legitimate prince who was about to be appointed as the crown prince, and thus pledged his loyalty to the ninth prince.

"These rumors are all very diverse, but they all basically say that the Ninth Prince conveyed some overt or covert information, and that the First Prince was the one who did it. But if they continue to spread, I'm afraid there will be more and more versions."

Shuang Xu said lightly.

"What is the Queen's reaction?" Yu Sheyue opened her eyes wide and asked curiously with her chin propped up.

"It seems... there is no movement?" Shuang Xu shook his head. "Don't worry, madam. I have someone watching us. I will come and report to you as soon as there is any news. I will not let you know too late."

"This rumor has spread so far that I don't believe it anymore. Will the Queen just sit there and wait for death?" Yu Guipin Yu Sheyue stood up. "Forget it. Overthinking is useless. Why are we, the bystanders, so anxious? Come, arrange for me to dress up. I want to go to Zhaozheng Palace to comfort His Majesty."

"Yes, ma'am."

The palace maids responded one after another.
