"Brother, stop talking!" Xiao Changying closed his eyes in pain.
His brother had reminded him not to trust his mother and the emperor too much, but he just thought that his brother was resentful of his mother because of the death of his eldest sister-in-law.
Since they were young, A Niang had taken good care of them brothers in the deep palace. In the entire palace, A Niang was the only one who protected the three children and helped them grow up healthily. In his heart, A Niang had always been a great and loving mother.
Xiao Changying knew that A'niang had fanned the flames of his eldest sister-in-law's affairs, but Xiao Changying didn't like Gu Qingzhi. Gu Qingzhi never took his brother seriously. Moreover, when the poison was delivered to his eldest sister-in-law, A'niang didn't force her to take it. He always felt that A'niang was not to blame.
That's why he was not on guard. His brother said that he thought he had found out Shen Yun'an's attitude for him, and Shen Yun'an was shaken about their marriage.
He was very happy, and when A Niang saw him and asked him about it, he did not hide it. He really regarded A Niang as someone he could confide in and trust. A Niang also praised him very much, but he turned around and...
Xiao Changqing understood Xiao Changying's current mood, because he also endured the heartbreaking pain step by step, which led to his current state of being neither sad nor happy, and becoming stronger than steel.
In the past, he took on everything, just hoping that this younger brother, the only one who treated him sincerely, could grow up happily and without worries.
He is a little tired now. Once his work is done, he will have nothing to worry about. A-di must grow up on his own.
Xiao Changqing did not provoke his brother. He stood up and walked to Xiao Changying's side, gently patting his shoulder: "Brother, you have to grow up quickly."
I hope he grows up quickly and is able to withstand all the wind and rain, so that as his brother he can feel at ease.
Xiao Huayong could not understand the sorrow of Xiao Changqing's brothers. He was in a very good mood today. What Shen Yun'an said when he came back was tantamount to entrusting Shen Xihe to his care. Although Shen Yun'an still didn't say a word to him, the more he did so, the happier he was.
If he was not unique to Shen Xihe, why would Shen Yun'an be so resentful about him
Xiao Huayong was in such a good mood that he walked with a breeze. Tian Yuan, who was following behind him, felt that his Highness almost jumped a few times to express his joy at the moment.
Seeing His Highness heading towards the East Palace, Tian Yuan hurriedly stopped him: "Your Highness, have you forgotten that you have something else to do..."
Xiao Huayong slapped his forehead and said, "Yeah, I was so happy that I forgot about the important things."
Having said that, he turned around and went in another direction.
Today is the Double Ninth Festival, and even His Majesty has ordered the ministers on duty to leave early. It should have been a day for family celebration, but an urgent report of tax grain being intercepted was submitted, and Emperor Youning was extremely anxious to contact the three prime ministers and confidential ministers.
The Minister of the Court, Prince Wang Zheng, was unlucky. When he went out, he was blocked by a dispute between two parties, so he had to take a detour.
Taking a detour even startled the horse and he fell off. After much difficulty he climbed back up and hurried to the palace gate. He was about to tighten the reins and dismount, but the horse disobeyed him and rushed straight ahead.
The guards at the palace gate recognized Wang Zheng and made way for him, preparing to enter the palace to tame the mad horse. However, they did not expect that the Crown Prince, who had gone up the stairs with Princess Zhaoning and Prince Shen today, did not leave, but took advantage of his slightly improved health to walk around.
Everyone watched as the mad horse rushed towards His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. At the critical moment, a palace gate guard swooped over and punched the horse on the neck, and both Wang Zheng and the horse flew out.
