Canglan Empress

Chapter 50 Isn't the Emperor cheating on me?

The emperor is indeed not a fool.

The sky gradually turned dark, and the banquet in the Daqing Palace was ready, and all the officials were seated.

The queen, prince, princess, and concubines in the harem who are eligible to participate in the palace banquet have already taken their seats.

But at this time in the imperial study room, Emperor Tiande was still talking to Huangfu Xuanyin.

The emperor sat on the dragon chair behind the imperial case, and Xuanyin sat on a chair on the left side of the imperial case. Hearing what the emperor said, his face flashed with surprise: "The emperor just said, fourteen The princess is actually not the fourteenth princess, but the fourteenth prince?"

Emperor Tiande nodded: "After a whole day of deliberation, I think I should tell you the truth."

This sentence is not an exaggeration, he has indeed gone through almost a whole day of deliberation.

After Xuanyin left the palace in the morning, he thought a lot by himself.

Over the years, every time he encountered some incomprehensible things, he would stay quietly in the imperial study alone, thinking quietly by himself——

The habits formed over the years have made his mind more meticulous and sharp, and he can often find a little clue from some seemingly flawless appearances, so as to draw unexpected conclusions.

However, today he thought about what Huangfu Xuanyin said from the beginning to the end several times, and he thought about the existence of the Fourteenth Prince from the beginning to the end several times, and thought through layers of thoughts in his mind countless times——

In the end, however, no valid conclusions were drawn that could prove that there was some kind of relationship between the two men.

So he felt that he could rest assured of Huangfu Xuanyin.

Besides, he was going to announce the identity of Fourteen tonight.

The fact that Fourteen is the prince actually has nothing to do with Huangfu Xuanyin—except that he cannot marry him.

Everything else really doesn't matter.

It was impossible for Huangfu Xuanyin to gain any benefit from it, because even if Shisi regained his status as a prince, he would definitely not be qualified to inherit the throne.

Even if it takes ten thousand steps back, Fourteen is qualified to compete for the throne.

But he is only 12 years old now, and his brothers who are expected to inherit the throne are all in their thirties, and they have been planning in the court for many years.

Fourteenth, if Xiao wants to be the throne, it is undoubtedly whimsical, and I am afraid that he will not know how he died in the end.

Therefore, Emperor Tiande would never think that the matter of whether Fourteen was a prince or a princess would be involved with the throne.

"The fourteenth princess... is actually a man?" Xuanyin frowned, and looked at Emperor Tiande hesitantly after a long time, "Isn't the emperor trying to lie to me?"

The corner of Emperor Tiande's mouth twitched.

He also didn't care about his tone of voice and what he called himself, and shook his head seriously: "I don't have the need to lie to you."

"But... those two masters clearly said that the fourteenth princess is a princess..." Xuanyin's expression suddenly became extremely tangled, apparently still unable to accept the fact that the princess became a prince and her daughter-in-law suddenly flew away, " That humble minister...wouldn't be able to become the emperor's consort?"

"No." Emperor Tiande quickly comforted him, "Apart from Baoling and Baozhu, don't I have another daughter? The thirteen princesses under Concubine Mei's knee will be betrothed to you, what do you think?"
