After rebirth, His Highness Xinshu was pampered by me.

Chapter 407 Left Out

Queen Li was suddenly confined to Fengzhao Palace by the Emperor's order!
This incident not only surprised the concubines and masters in the harem, but when the news spread out of the harem, everyone in the court was shocked.

She is the queen of a country, why is she like this?
As soon as the news came out, the ministers who had just returned home from the morning court dispersed, straightened their clothes and hats, and hurried back to the palace.

At the Fifth Prince's Mansion, the Fifth Prince frowned upon hearing the news and ordered Zhuo Fang: "Prepare the carriage immediately, I want to go to the palace to see my mother!"

Zhuo Fang looked embarrassed: "I heard from the palace that Fengzhao Palace is being guarded inside and outside by people brought by Eunuch Yang, and no one is allowed to enter or leave. This..."

The fifth prince looked at him with a dark face: "If that's the case, then I don't need to go to the palace directly?"

Whether he can enter Fengzhao Palace or not is not the same for now, but at this time, he must go into the palace.

Zhuo Fang didn't dare to complain anymore, and hurriedly ordered people to prepare the car and asked people to pack up the Fifth Prince.

While she was busy, a servant came running in from outside and almost bumped into Zhuo Fang.

Zhuo Fang was startled and stopped, looking at the boy with a gloomy face: "What are you in such a hurry for? Are you in a hurry?"

The servant was also startled, and did not dare to look at Zhuo Fang. He just lowered his head and said nervously: "Brother Zhuo, the princess is here and wants to see Your Highness."

Is it something particularly important that the princess wants to see His Highness? Why is he in such a hurry?

Zhuo Fang waved her hands impatiently: "I know, you can go down!"

The servant didn't dare to say anything more. He just responded and left in a hurry.

Zhuo Fang stood there for a while, then took a deep breath and returned to the house, tiptoeing up to the Fifth Prince: "Your Highness, the Princess Princess is here and said she wants to see Your Highness!"

"What is she doing here? What is it?"

The Fifth Prince was pondering the possible reasons why Queen Li was under house arrest, when his thoughts were suddenly interrupted. He could not help but frown.

Zhuo Fang's heart tightened. Oh no, she was so angry that she forgot to ask the servant what the princess came for.

At this moment, the Fifth Prince asked...

Zhuo Fang paused and shook her head silently: "I only know that the princess came to see her in a hurry, but she didn't say why."

Well, why did the princess come? Can he say that he didn’t ask and didn’t know?

No, can't!

So, when His Highness asked, he could only say that the princess was anxious and did not say why she came!
Yes, it is like that!

The fifth prince frowned. He was in a hurry to enter the palace and didn't want to pay attention to his own princess, but his thoughts turned and he paused.

He stood still for a while and said to Zhuo Fang, "Let her in!"

Zhuo Fang replied yes and hurriedly went out to welcome the Fifth Prince's wife in.

When the Fifth Prince's Consort Li saw the Fifth Prince, she was about to bow and pay her respects, but the Fifth Prince waved his hand and stopped her.

The Fifth Prince had a calm expression on his face, but upon closer inspection, he could see a hint of impatience in his eyes: "Why are you coming here now? Do you have something important to say?"

The Fifth Prince's wife usually looked gentle and kind, but today she seemed a little impatient.

She bowed slightly and stood up, looking at the Fifth Prince and said, "Your Highness, I heard that the Queen Mother was under house arrest. I wonder what is going on?"

The fifth prince thought to himself, you ask me, how would I know?
He suppressed his impatience and said in a calm voice: "I am about to enter the palace. Since you are here, you can follow me. After you enter the palace, go directly to the Queen Mother and try your best to find a way to see her."

The Fifth Prince's wife naturally agreed, but she was a little worried in her heart: "I understand, but I'm afraid that Fengzhao Palace is not easy to enter now. If I can't see my mother..."

"If you can't see your mother, go to the Cining Palace to ask for an audience with the Empress Dowager and see if she has any news." The fifth prince waved his hand slightly in annoyance and said in a calm voice: "Okay, the matter is urgent, go to the palace first, and we can talk about other things on the way."

Go ahead and say it, the fifth prince turned around and walked out.

The Fifth Prince's wife could only hurriedly catch up.

The group entered the palace very quickly. The Fifth Prince naturally had to go to the Dizhao Palace first to ask for an audience with the Emperor, and the Fifth Prince's wife went towards the Fengzhao Palace.

However, the audience did not go smoothly for either the Fifth Prince or the Fifth Prince's wife.

Let's not talk about the Fifth Prince's wife. Fengzhao Palace has been closed, the palace gates are shut tightly, and there are eunuchs guarding the door. Even if the Fifth Prince's wife came in person, the gatekeepers would not dare to let her in without the emperor's order.

The Fifth Prince's persuasion and cajoling were of no avail.

She couldn't and didn't dare to force her way in, so after lingering at the gate of Fengzhao Palace for a long time, she finally turned around and left.

As for the fifth prince.

The fifth prince entered the Di Zhao Palace smoothly. When the eunuchs in the Di Zhao Palace saw him coming, they greeted him respectfully.

The Fifth Prince indicated to Zhuo Fang that she had done him a favor, and then he said, "Please go and tell my father that I need to see him for something."

The young eunuch took the purse, replied with a smile, and turned to pass the message to Xiao Anzi.

Xiao Anzi got the news and reported it to Eunuch Yang.

Eunuch Yang looked at the emperor, took two steps forward, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Prince Yi is here and he wants to see you for something!"

"Ok!"

The emperor responded indifferently, but did not say that he wanted to see the fifth prince. He just picked up another memorial and opened it: "Grind the ink!".

Well, judging from the emperor's expression, he doesn't want to meet Prince Yi for the time being.

Eunuch Yang took a look at the ink that was almost gone, hurriedly stepped forward and added clean water, then began to grind the ink in an orderly manner without saying anything more.

Not only did the emperor know it clearly, Eunuch Yang also saw it very clearly.

The Fifth Prince came into the palace in such a hurry, it could only be because of Queen Li's matter.

But the emperor obviously did not want to publicize what Queen Li had done, and naturally he would not tell the Fifth Prince. So when the Fifth Prince came to ask for an audience, the emperor was definitely unwilling to see him.

If this happens, and the Fifth Prince keeps asking about Queen Li, what can the Emperor say?
There's nothing to say anyway, so why not just leave him alone?

So the fifth prince was left out.

The eunuch who delivered the message saw that there was no movement inside, so he hesitated for a moment and invited the Fifth Prince to sit in a side hall and drink tea, resting and waiting.

However, the Fifth Prince's tea had been refilled twice, but there was still no movement in the main hall.

Although the Fifth Prince was still sitting upright, he stopped the little palace maid who wanted to come forward and continue to pour him tea.

I gradually felt a little irritated.

But this was the Di Zhao Palace, so he didn't dare to do anything.

After sitting like this for nearly half an hour, the Fifth Prince finally became a little impatient. He stood up and found the eunuch guarding the gate: "Young eunuch, please pass the message on for me."

The young eunuch was a little hesitant at this moment. After all, the situation was very clear. The emperor might not want to see the fifth prince at this moment.
