After rebirth, His Highness Xinshu was pampered by me.

Chapter 410: Choking

Concubine Wei immediately smiled at Empress Dowager Wei and said, "Look at what my aunt said... I just heard the maid beside me say it."

In order to avoid being criticized by Empress Dowager Wei again, Concubine Wei immediately said, "I don't know what's going on in Fengzhao Palace. Aunt, do we really not need to investigate?"

Empress Dowager Wei frowned and glanced at Concubine Wei: "The Emperor has his reasons for doing things. Since he hasn't said it explicitly, you shouldn't do anything unnecessary. Do you understand?"

Upon hearing this, Concubine Wei lowered her head and looked submissive, but in her heart she didn't care at all.

As a concubine, and a concubine with a prince at that, how could she not care about the emperor's every move?
The worst thing to do to survive in the harem is to be blind.

Thinking of this, Concubine Wei Shu felt a little resentful.

Even though Empress Dowager Wei was her biological aunt, and although she loved the Tenth Prince very much, she had never promoted her... specially.

Sometimes Concubine Wei couldn't help but wonder whether Empress Dowager Wei was still her biological aunt.

When Empress Dowager Wei saw her like this, she sighed in her heart, but she was too lazy to lecture her in person. Anyway, no matter what she said, Concubine Wei might not take it to heart.

The palace servant who was delivering the message was guarding the door. Seeing that there was no order from above, he looked hesitantly at Nanny Gui who was standing beside him.

Nanny Gui glanced at him, then took two steps forward and leaned close to Empress Dowager Wei's ear to remind her, "Master, Princess Yi and Prince Yi are still waiting for an audience."

Empress Dowager Wei said indifferently: "I was a little tired, so I left. Besides, don't you know why they are here? What can I say if I see them?"

She knew nothing about Queen Li.

Nanny Gui knew this, but she thought that Empress Dowager Wei might want to meet the other party, so why not say a few words to comfort the emperor?

But obviously, Empress Dowager Wei did not think so.

So be it.

Nanny Gui didn't say anything to persuade them. Concubine Wei, who was standing by, hoped that the Empress Dowager Wei would not meet Prince Yi and his wife, so she naturally didn't say much.

Outside the Cining Palace, Prince Yi and his wife received the message from Nanny Gui and did not argue any further. They all bowed towards the main hall and left the Cining Palace.

After walking for a long time, Princess Yi said to Prince Yi, "When I came here, I heard from the little palace maid in Cining Palace that Empress Shufei had entered Cining Palace early in the morning and has not left until now."

In other words, when they were standing at the door just now, Concubine Wei was still sitting in the Cining Palace.

Prince Yi paused for a moment, then continued walking forward as if nothing had happened.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Princess Yijun didn't say anything more and just followed him silently.

When the couple walked to the palace gate, they ran into the eldest prince. Prince Yi subconsciously stopped.

Judging from the direction the eldest prince came from, it seemed to be the direction of Dizhao Palace.

Oh, his eldest brother, who pretends to be crazy and stupid, is becoming more and more favored by the emperor. Recently, he has been entering the palace every now and then.

Thinking of this, Prince Yi's eyes couldn't help but deepen.

The eldest prince was walking, thinking about something in his mind, and did not notice Prince Yi and others on the side. However, Jin Ge saw them when he turned his head.

Seeing Prince Yi stopped there and staring at his master, Jin Ge hurried forward to remind him: "Master, Prince Yi is here too."

The eldest prince responded in surprise, raised his head and looked around, and sure enough, he saw Prince Yi standing not far away looking at him.

"Oh, it's the fifth brother. You are in the palace today too? What a coincidence!" Prince Yi's face suddenly turned two shades uglier.

Since he had received the news, he didn't believe that the eldest prince hadn't heard about it.

Since the eldest prince got the news, how could the other party not know that I would come to the palace at this time?
Coincidence? Humph!

It was true. The eldest prince had not thought about this for a moment. When he saw that he had greeted Prince Yi, but the other party not only did not greet him but also gave him a cold look, he immediately became unhappy.

He looked at Prince Yi, frowned and asked: "Fifth Brother, I, the Emperor, am saying hello to you. What's with that expression on your face?"

Prince Yi said indifferently: "Your Majesty, what are you talking about? I have always looked like this."

"When did you always have this gloomy face?"

The eldest prince looked at Prince Yi in surprise, and after a while he seemed to react and said, "I don't know about other things, but you are becoming more and more talkative, and you can say anything. Tsk, I, your royal brother, can't compare to you!"

Hearing this teasing tone, Prince Yi was furious.

But thinking that they were still in the palace and had not yet left the palace, he held back his anger.

Taking a deep breath, Prince Yi bowed to the eldest prince and said, "My eldest brother, I have something else to do. I will not entertain you any more. I will take my leave now."

After saying this, he turned and left without waiting for the eldest prince to react.

When Prince Yi saw this, he bowed hurriedly in the direction of the eldest prince and followed Prince Yi without stopping.

At this moment, the eldest prince seemed to have just noticed the presence of Princess Yijun: "Hey, why is the fifth prince's family here too? Did they enter the palace together?"

Jin Ge didn’t know whether they entered the palace together or not. After all, he didn’t ask. But since they were walking together now, it seemed that they must have entered the palace together, right?
Besides...

Jin Ge thought for a moment and said in a low voice: "Something happened in Fengzhao Palace this morning. I think Prince Yi and Princess Yi will definitely come to the palace to take a look."

They are Queen Li’s biological sons and daughters-in-law. How could they not come when Queen Li was in trouble?
The eldest prince nodded as if he suddenly realized something: "So that's how it is. I almost forgot about this... Tsk!".

After thinking about it, the eldest prince turned around and headed towards the harem instead of leaving the palace.

Jin Ge was stunned and quickly turned around to follow: "Master? Aren't we going to leave the palace?"

The eldest prince nodded and said, "I haven't entered the palace to pay my respects to mother today. Now that I have entered the palace, it's a good opportunity for me to pay my respects to mother."

By the way, I'd also like to find out what's going on in Fengzhao Palace.

Concubine Wu De was still a little surprised to see her own son at this time. After asking and learning the reason why he came, she was even more speechless.

"How would I know what's going on in Fengzhao Palace? It's now firmly guarded by people sent by Eunuch Yang. If you ask me what's going on inside, you're asking the wrong person."

The eldest prince clicked his tongue and sighed, "I originally thought I could come to mother to hear some happy news!"

Although he didn't have much aversion to Queen Li, to be honest, he didn't like her very much either.

It shouldn't have happened.

But who can blame him for being the biological son of Queen Li? And for some reason he particularly dislikes the fifth son!
Concubine Wu De glared at the eldest prince in annoyance and said, "What are you talking about? She is your mother. How will you react if others find out about your attitude?"

Queen Li is annoying, but she is the queen, the mother of all the royal heirs!
