Only after getting married do you realize how comfortable and easy life is at your parents' home. Although Lady Xianrong was dressed up to welcome guests, her face was filled with unconcealable sadness and fatigue.
It was only two days after the wedding.
Nanny Yuan was startled and quickly stepped forward to look at Mama Lou. Seeing that Mama Lou also had a bitter smile on her face, she hurriedly asked, "But what happened?"
In the past, I thought Nanny Yuan was too strict, but now when Xianrong County Lady saw her, she felt that she had found a backbone and hurriedly responded, "The prince and father had a quarrel..."
Nanny Yuan rolled up her hands and coughed. She glanced around and saw that everyone had left. Then she said softly, "What's the matter? Please tell me slowly."
The newlywed Prince Linjiang is leaving the capital again. What could be so big a deal that they have to quarrel at the time of separation
Nanny Yuan was very afraid that Princess Xianrong had just arrived and had thrown some tantrums, which had displeased Prince Linjiang and the Princess. Princess Chang'an was already in a difficult situation.
If something happens to Lady Xianrong again, it will be even worse for Princess Chang'an.
Xianrong County Lady was somewhat embarrassed and lowered her head. After a while, she sighed, "It's because of my father-in-law..." She organized her words for a while before saying, "For some reason, my father-in-law laid off the prince's staff..."
Speaking of Chu Jingxing, Xianrong County Lady's tone became gentle and helpless: "How can this be possible? Moreover, they took back the prince's seal and said that he didn't have to worry about anything in the capital..."
Even the Crown Prince's seal was taken back?!
Nanny Yuan was immediately shocked and asked, "Do you know why? Why would the prince do this for no reason?"
Everyone in the world knows that Chu Jingxing is the prince of Linjiang Palace, and people in the Linjiang Palace have known this for a long time. Chu Jingxing was once taught by Mei Hanlin and Xia Shoufu, and his mother's position is also stable, and she has long been recognized as the successor.
If Chu Jingxing hadn't done something particularly excessive, King Linjiang wouldn't have deliberately slapped him in the face like this.
What’s more, this happened at a time when Chu Jingxing had just gotten married.
Xianrong County Lady was embarrassed for a moment, and after hesitating for a while, she stammered, "It's because of this... the Fourth Prince's matter..."
Nanny Yuan is not that kind of ignorant woman. She is the daughter of an official family. Since there are no males in the family, she was taught as a boy. She has also gained experience following the eldest princess over the years and understands many things at a glance.
When she heard what Xianrong County Lady said, she immediately understood the reason. After a moment's pause, she asked, "Does the Fourth Prince's matter have anything to do with the Crown Prince?"
Could it be that Chu Jingxing deliberately set up a trap to make the Fourth Prince fall so seriously ill
If that's the case, it doesn't make sense-----Why would King Linjiang be angry with Chu Jingxing for something like this? This is clearly for the sake of the palace.
Or is there another reason
Now that everything had been said, Xianrong County Lady simply stopped trying to hide it and told Nanny Yuan the whole story. Then she said, "Because the eunuch felt that the prince had violated a taboo..."
Nanny Yuan frowned.
Chu Jingxing shouldn't be so anxious to take action again - King Linjiang still hasn't gotten over the time he schemed against Shen Chen.
He has now come out to instigate conflicts between brothers and behaves so cold-blooded and heartless, plotting against Chu Jingmeng, Chu Jingqian, the Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince at once. Doesn't he seem a little heartless
She understood and asked, "Is this why the prince is angry with the prince?"
Xianrong County Lady couldn't help but feel a little resentful: "Not only that... Eunuch actually wrote a letter to the Xiao family, asking them to send the fourth son to be the prince's companion."
Be a study partner to Chu Jingwu
This attitude is already very clear. What King Linjiang did is tantamount to announcing to the Xiao family, asking them to choose the right side in the future, that Chu Jingxing will not be his only heir.
This was indeed a huge insult to Chu Jingxing.
No wonder Chu Jingxing was so angry. No one could tolerate it.
Chu Jingxing certainly did something wrong, but King Linjiang was a little too cruel...
Princess Linjiang felt the same way. She cried and asked King Linjiang: "Even if what you said makes sense, he is now blinded by greed and does not recognize his relatives, but you don't give him a chance to correct himself. Isn't it too heartless? After all, he is our own son!"
There was a pen and paper in front of Prince Linjiang. He looked at Princess Linjiang coldly and asked calmly, "So what you mean is that I did something wrong?"
Princess Linjiang has always been afraid of the calm Prince Linjiang. When she heard this, her crying stopped and she just sobbed softly.
She also knew that what King Linjiang said made sense. The eldest son did seem to have a deep prejudice against the younger son recently. If things continued to develop in this way, it would be easy for something to go wrong if the eldest son had too much power.
But the problem is that the eldest son hasn’t really done anything yet.
It was really too much for Prince Linjiang to punish his eldest son for such a trumped-up crime.
How will my eldest son cope with the situation in the future
Prince Linjiang put away the crown prince's seal expressionlessly, and after a while he said, "If he doesn't improve himself, he won't be able to sit on this throne for long."
He looked at Princess Linjiang who suddenly raised her head, and asked expressionlessly: "Look at what he did for his own selfishness. How can he behave like a prince? You are the only one who is willing to see brothers killing each other in the future?!"
Princess Linjiang whimpered and was speechless. After a while, she spoke in a voice as soft as a mosquito: "How can it be so? Jingxing is not that kind of person..."
King Linjiang laughed coldly, and then he closed his eyes after a while: "Of course I hope he is not such a person. We should take precautions against everything. He is now relying on the Xiao family and the status of the prince, and he is really arrogant. If we don't teach him a lesson, he will not know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is. I am saving him. If you help him again, you will harm him!"
Princess Linjiang didn't dare to say anything more.
She knew that Prince Linjiang was a man of his word.
Since he had already taken back the seal of the crown prince, he would definitely not take back his decision. After thinking it over again, he sobbed, "But when we leave the capital, what will happen to him and Jingwu..."
This was a tacit agreement that Chu Jingxing would no longer be helped privately. King Linjiang glanced at her and said, "I have already arranged all this. Nothing will really happen to him."
Not allowing him to interfere too much is both a restriction and a protection for him. I hope he can understand this principle and not make irreparable mistakes again.
Otherwise, he would never be able to return the seal to his eldest son, who should have been his heir.
