"Yes, mother, my eldest brother doesn't care." Not to mention Concubine Dong, even Murong Jie is still shocked by this result.
Because the eldest royal brother was different from them, he was taught since childhood how to be a good emperor. It was his destiny to be the future ruler of the Great Zhou, but he didn't care about occupying that position.
"That's fake. How could he not care? The goal of the Queen and him for so many years has been to make him the Crown Prince and the future Emperor of the Great Zhou. How could he not care? How is that possible?" Concubine Dong's words were hysterical.
"Mother, my eldest and third brothers asked me to persuade you. I don't know how, but I just want to tell you what's in my heart. I hope you can listen to my son." After saying this, Murong Jie deliberately paused, waiting for the reaction in the hall. This time, Concubine Dong surprisingly did not speak.
She was still in shock. She couldn't understand why the eldest prince had no interest in the throne
Had she been wrong all along? How was it possible? If it wasn't for the eldest prince, how could the queen have endured for so many years
Concubine Dong couldn't find any reason to convince herself.
Murong Jie didn't know what Concubine Dong was thinking, he just felt that she was willing to listen to his good advice.
"Mother, do you think the emperor really loves you? I think the emperor does not love you. In his eyes, you are just an object, a plaything. He pampers you and coaxes you to make you happy. When you are happy, he will be happier. However, how long can such a relationship last? If the emperor is disappointed in you, he will pamper someone else instead."
"Mother, the last time I left this Qingliang Palace, I knelt outside Father's Palace as you instructed. When Father heard that Mother was ill, he rushed out into the rain without a care in the world. Not only did he not take an umbrella, but his clothes were also in disarray."
"Because my mother is ill, my father is worried every day. He even has no smile on his face in the court, and all the ministers are trembling with fear."
"I have seen you and the Emperor together before, and I have never seen the Emperor lose his composure like this."
"How dare you tell me this? What does this prove? It proves that the Queen is very skilled and that she won the Emperor's heart after I entered the Qingliang Palace. This proves that all men are unfaithful and your father has failed me."
It would have been fine if Murong Zheng and the Queen hadn't mentioned it, but now that Murong Jie was talking about it, his tone was full of envy, which made Concubine Dong jealous.
"So, no matter what I do, it's because they force me to do it. Even if I die, it's my own fault."
Concubine Dong did not hear Murong Jie's response. She was furious in her heart and uttered the most vicious words. Only after she finished speaking did she realize what she had said.
"Jie'er, mother didn't say anything. Mother was just too angry..." Concubine Dong explained anxiously, but her explanation now was even more of a cover-up. Even though Murong Jie was not very smart, he understood what she was covering up.
"Mother, what did you do? Regarding father's poisoning, you..." The possibility that emerged in Murong Jie's mind made his mind go blank. Although he tried his best to deny it, his reason told him that his father's poison was related to his mother.
"Don't worry about it. This is all about adults. He owes you the position of crown prince. Your grandfather and uncle will return to the capital in the next two days. They will help you secure the position of crown prince by then."
Murong Jie's world seemed to be struck by lightning. He didn't know how to respond to his crazy mother, and he didn't know where to go next.
