After reading the whole family's minds, the eldest daughter awakened

"Back to my father, I have been wronged. Please understand clearly."

Chu Wangchen didn't explain too much for himself. When he was taking care of Chu Jinhong in Kunning Palace, he was not alone. The imperial doctors and maids were all there. One check would tell.

Soon, the eunuch whispered a few words into Emperor Dongzhou's ear, and then stepped aside respectfully.

Emperor Dongzhou snorted coldly, "I believe you for the time being, but you have an unshirkable responsibility for the eldest prince to become like this.

I now give you a chance to atone for your sins. The fifth prince is not young anymore. It is time to learn to deal with political affairs. "

The fifth prince, Chu Jinren, is fifteen years old and the son of the current noble concubine. Unlike the eldest prince, he likes to read and play the piano, and is still studying in the academy.

"Yes, I will definitely teach the Fifth Emperor's brother well."

"Well, you go back to the Prince's Mansion first. I will ask the fifth prince to find you tomorrow."

"Yes, I will retire."

Emperor Dongzhou waved his hands impatiently. In his heart, Chu Wangchen's status was higher than that of Chu Jinhong, but he was not qualified to inherit the throne.

The fifth prince's mother was a noble concubine. She was also of noble birth and was excellent in all aspects. In the eyes of Emperor Dongzhou, she was the best person to inherit the throne.

Chu Wangchen did not leave the palace directly, but went to Kunning Palace to say goodbye to the queen.

Empress Murong had a headache and couldn't sleep. Grandma Wang beside her was massaging her temples.

"Mother and Queen, my father asked his son to return to the Prince's Mansion first and start teaching the fifth prince from tomorrow. He came here to say goodbye to his mother."

After hearing Chu Wangchen's words, Queen Murong immediately sat up straight and asked, "Did your father really tell you this?"

"Yes."

Empress Murong put her hand on the low table with slight force, and a crease appeared on the long armor.

"Okay, I understand, please step back."

"Yes."

After Chu Wangchen left, Grandma Wang beside Empress Murong couldn't help but speak worriedly.

"Empress, is your Majesty planning to support the fifth prince to ascend to the throne?"

Grandma Wang is Empress Murong's wet nurse. She is loyal to her and very capable. She has given her many ideas.

She was Empress Murong's confidant, and she never had too many scruples about what she said.

Empress Murong slammed the table several times angrily, "Your Majesty has failed me so much. As soon as Ahong did this, he couldn't wait to train other princes. He didn't take this palace and the Zhenguo General's Palace seriously at all."

"Empress, what are we going to do next? He is the emperor, and we have to obey whatever he asks us to do."

"You're right, what if he is no longer in that position."

"Empress, what do you mean..."

"Bring me a pen and paper, I want to write a letter to my father."

"Yes, ma'am."

After Chu Wangchen took Chu Ning back to the Prince's Mansion, he immediately went to the secret room.

Li Youwei was training, and Chu Wangchen didn't bother her, just watching quietly from the side.

Li Youwei turned around to look, and met Chu Wangchen's affectionately smiling eyes. Li Youwei was also worried about Chu Wangchen these days. When he saw him coming back, he asked the secret guard leader An Yi to continue training. , and she came to him in a few steps.

"Wangchen, are you injured?"

Chu Wangchen smiled and shook his head, "It's just a minor injury. I've gotten used to it after so many years."

Chu Wangchen said it lightly, but it made the listeners feel sad. Chu Ning secretly wiped the corners of his eyes. Their prince was really suffering, but soon, those who bullied him would be punished.

Li Youwei's father did not care for his mother, and he raised his younger siblings from childhood. She can sympathize with the pain and hardships involved.

"Come on, let's talk over there."

Li Youwei pulled Chu Wangchen's sleeve very naturally. Chu Wangchen didn't expect such treatment, and he was so dumbfounded that he didn't know which foot to step.

Chu Ning was originally sad, but when she saw how worthless his highness looked, she suddenly wanted to laugh.

Chu Wangchen glared at Chu Ning fiercely, and Chu Ning hurriedly covered her mouth.

"You don't need to follow me."

"Yes, I understand."

Chu Ning went to talk to the secret guards very wisely, but An Yi couldn't help but speak.

"Brother Ning, General Li is our mistress, right?"

Chu Ning leaned against the stone pillar with her sword in her arms and bared her teeth, "When have you ever seen His Highness look so worthless? General Li is the person he cares about most."

"It would be great if that's the case. General Li is really powerful. Although he only guided us for a few days, he benefited us a lot."

Chu Ning nodded, "General Li's ability is undoubted, that's why our Highness loves him so much."

"Then when will Your Highness marry someone home?"

These secret guards have been with Chu Wangchen for many years. They all know that he is suffering and hope that there will be someone who can love him.

They thought that the person was Princess Anping before, but when they saw that His Highness barely even looked at him, they knew they were mistaken.

Now His Highness has made it obvious that his true love is General Li.

"Your Highness is determined to be a dreamer. The key is to see when General Li wants to get married."

The secret guards looked at each other, then nodded, "Then is there anything we can do to help His Highness?"

"You just need to protect General Li, and leave the rest to His Highness."

"Yes, we understand."

In the stone house, Li Youwei pulled Chu Wangchen to sit down and took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve pocket.

"This is the ointment that Sister Ling developed for me. It has the effect of reducing swelling. Your face is a little serious. I will help you apply the ointment."

Chu Wangchen nodded obediently, looking like he was letting others manipulate him. If Chu Ning were here, he would definitely call his Highness a thief, because when he came out of the palace, Chu Ning proposed to give him medicine on his face. He said No need, it turns out he was kept to make a miserable show in front of Li Youwei.

After Li Youwei gave Chu Wangchen the medicine, he was about to take the porcelain bottle back when Chu Wangchen grabbed his sleeve.

"You Wei, the Queen loves to slap me on the face. Can you give me this bottle of medicine?"

Li Youwei's movements paused, and there was distress in his eyes.

"Okay, I'll give it to you."

Li Youwei thrust the porcelain bottle into Chu Wangchen's hand, watched him put it away, and then asked about what happened in the palace.

Chu Wangchen's main focus was sincerity. He recounted what happened in the palace without treating Li Youwei as an outsider.

After listening to Chu Wangchen's narration, Li Youwei put forward his own guess.

"Wangchen, what happened to the Saint? Did you find her? Is it her who caused Chu Jinhong's stupidity?"

Chu Wangchen shook his head, "I didn't find her. Chu Jinhong was stupid because I had someone tamper with her.

Ahem, You Wei, you don’t think I’m vicious, do you? "

Chu Wangchen could live until now. If he was really as weak as his body, he would have died countless times.

"You are just trying to protect yourself. Chu Jinhong can kill you without blinking an eye, so you can naturally deal with him."

If it were those young ladies who were inexperienced in the world, they might be afraid of hating Chu Wangchen after seeing his true face, but Li Youwei wouldn't, so he would fall madly in love with her.

"You Wei, these words from you are enough."
