In the following days, there was no news from the Queen, and the letter was delivered to the Queen, but there was no movement from her.

During the time when Gu Hanzhang was recovering from his injuries, the palace kept the news about him secret, and no one knew that he was injured.

However, Gu Hanzhang was also a little confused. It stands to reason that the news of his intrusion into Eagle Cliff should be known, but the people who stayed in the town still did not notice Fu Qiang's actions. They only saw Long Yan coming down the mountain and returning to the Imperial Palace. He never left the city again.

Half a month passed by in a flash. As time passed, Gu Hanzhang's injuries had greatly improved. This was also due to Ruoruo's very effective medicine and Gu Hanzhang's own good health.

After four or five days, Gu Hanzhang could get out of bed and walk around, but Chaoli stopped him and forced him to lie down for more than ten days.

Nowadays, Gu Hanzhang has no problem walking around in the palace, and Chaoli will not stop him.

The two of them took a walk after breakfast. Not long after arriving in the big garden, a palace maid came anxiously to look for them.

"I have met Your Highness, Your Majesty. Your Majesty has asked you to take charge of the study. The eldest princess is also here," the palace maid said.

Chaoli nodded in understanding, thinking that it must be Prince Gong's business.

Well, the little one in the belly is now more than two months old and very healthy. It's time to start taking care of Prince Gong and get them together as soon as possible.

During this period, Gu Hanzhang's letters became more and more dense. It seemed that the situation in Daqi might not be very good.

"Okay, we'll go there right away." Chaoli agreed.

When the two rushed to the imperial study room, Fang Huimin was already waiting, and Ye Lin was also sitting beside him.

Chaoli and Gu Hanzhang greeted the three of them in turn, and then the Queen asked them to sit down and talk.

"Hanzhang, are your injuries healed?" The queen looked at Gu Hanzhang and asked.

Gu Hanzhang smiled and nodded, "Grandma is worried. My injury has healed. If there is anything you need to do, just let me know."

The Queen chuckled lightly, "You kid, you make it sound like I care about you just because I want you to do things. It really makes me sad."

"Grandma, don't get me wrong, I didn't mean it this way." Gu Hanzhang explained helplessly.

Of course, he also knew that the Queen was not serious about this, but was just joking on purpose.

The atmosphere became lively, everyone laughed, and then started to get down to business.

"I already know what's going on with Prince Gong, and I've checked it based on the letter Han Zhang got back. I can almost confirm the current situation. However, with the letter, there's nothing left to do to convict Prince Gong. Therefore. I arranged for Long Lin to return to the palace to respond internally, but I know that Prince Gong does not believe in Long Lin." After the queen finished speaking, she cast her eyes on Gu Hanzhang, as if she wanted to hear Gu Hanzhang's thoughts.

Gu Hanzhang pondered for a moment, "Grandma, Long Lin is indeed not trusted by Prince Gong, but Long Yan is the person he trusts the most. The relationship between Long Yan and Long Lin is not close, but they are brothers anyway. Be worried about people. Therefore, Long Lin might as well start with Long Yan, maybe there will be something to gain."

According to Gu Hanzhang's understanding, Long Yan was very different from Prince Gong, so it was actually easier for him to get it.

After hearing this, the Queen reacted belatedly.

"Yes, Long Yan is indeed a good entry point. If Han Zhang hadn't met Long Yan at Eagle Cliff, I would have been concealed by Prince Gong. Alas, I didn't expect that he has been planning for so many years, maybe in After Alian passed away, he had this idea. Perhaps in his eyes, Alian's death was intentional on my part. In the final analysis, it was all grudges from many years ago. However, she did follow Alian's intelligence. Like her." The Queen couldn't help but sigh.

Ye Lin saw the queen's sadness, and he reached out to hold the queen's hand and give her strength.

"Grandma, this Alian is Prince Gong's biological mother, but why would he blame his mother's death on his grandmother?" Chaoli asked.

The Queen sighed slightly, "Let your grandfather talk to you."

Ye Lin understood that the Queen did not want to mention Longlian, which would arouse her sadness, so she asked Ye Lin to speak.

"Long Lian is His Majesty's biological sister. The two have had a good relationship since childhood and have always been close. When the Queen became the Princess, the late Emperor asked Long Lian to be her Dark Emperor, but Long Lian refused. She didn't want to To divide the imperial power of Xilin. Later, the two of them got married and had their own homes, which seemed fine. The problem was Longlian's husband. She loved her husband deeply, so she had a relationship under his instigation. Different thoughts. When dealing with the Queen, Long Lian's husband was shot to death by random arrows. The Queen caught Long Lian and the two chatted for a long time. Afterwards, Long Lian suddenly came to his senses, went back to settle Prince Gong, and drank. He drank poison and drank himself to death."

"Your Majesty truly believes in loving this sister, so she is not willing to kill her. Instead, she treats Prince Gong very well and has always regarded her as her own son. Even when the princes had conflicts with Prince Gong, the Queen always scolded them and stood by Prince Gong. . In the final analysis, the Queen felt that she did not guide Long Lian properly, which led to her being in such a situation. Therefore, she felt that she was at fault, and her attitude towards Prince Gong became gentler. However, it now seems that Prince Gong does not understand the truth of the matter. , I just feel that your mother was killed by Your Majesty. Moreover, he must have heard some rumors, so he thought it was His Majesty’s fault and wanted to fight for the throne."

As for those who opened their mouths to tell Prince Gong those rumors, there is actually no need to delve deeper.

After all, Prince Gong's age is here, and those thoughts have been ingrained in his mind for so many years, and it's useless to talk about them.

As for Prince Gong's ambition, the Queen only became aware of it in recent years.

Chaoli frowned slightly, "Grandma, grandfather, why didn't you tell Prince Gong these things? Now that we have seen his fault, we should talk about it openly. This will be good for everyone. Even if nothing can be changed, we must Let him know that if he wants to compete for the throne, he is not justified. Furthermore, there is no need for grandmother to kill Longlian, and there is no need to force her to death. After all, Xilin always respects the elder. The throne, in the end It will only fall on grandma and has nothing to do with Long Lian, let alone Long Lian who did something wrong."

"It's not that simple. I also told him that he just accepted it on the surface, but in fact he didn't take it to heart at all." The Queen sighed.

In other words, Prince Gong is trying to get into trouble and is unwilling to accept this argument.

Chaoli didn't think so. She didn't think Prince Gong didn't listen at all. Maybe he had already understood.

"I think it's not that he doesn't understand, but that he doesn't want to understand."
