After the replacement of the delicate imperial concubine, my emperor will never come to court again

Chapter 287 Four Deaths and Nine Lives
Li Bin smiled and followed the old palace man in while looking around.

Although it is said that Taixue has been neglected for a long time without the prince coming to study, but now that the little prince is born, Taixue pays attention to it again and everything is sorted out.

Li Bin saw that there were many bookcases in the room she entered, and a table was placed in the middle of the bookcases.

It looks like Mr.'s room.

Hairpin Hua walked up quickly and saw a roster on the table. She opened it, looked at it twice and said with a smile: "This is the roster of the children in the royal family who are similar in age to the little prince recently!"

The old palace man laughed and said, "That's right. Now that the young prince is the first to enter the Imperial College, he can't study alone, so the Queen Mother has given instructions to start choosing a study companion."

When Concubine Li heard this, it turned out that this old palace man had already received orders from the Queen Mother. They also lied that the Queen Mother had something to do, wouldn't they have been seen through?

However, the old palace man did not tell the truth, so Concubine Li smiled and said: "I have just been working with the Queen Mother, but I didn't know about this matter. It has already been arranged, and I wanted to come and have a look in advance!"

Hearing this, the old palace man chuckled and said, "Your Majesty has good intentions. If the Queen Mother finds out, she will definitely understand your Majesty's good intentions. I haven't finished the matter yet. It would be great if Your Majesty is willing to help."

This is obviously to give Libi a reward and let her go to the Queen Mother to perform.

Hearing this, Hairpin Hua immediately stepped forward with a smile and helped the old palace man sit down: "You are really considerate. Come, let's sit and talk. I will prepare the tea here, and you will talk to our queen."

When the old palace man heard about it, he quickly said: "That won't work. I'll go get some tea."

But after Hairpin Hua finished speaking, a palace maid had already gone out to do it.

The old palace man then sat down and asked: "In the past few days, I looked at the roster and found that there are still quite a few children born with the little prince, but there are not many in the capital, and the choice is limited."

Li Bin did not come here just for this matter, so she smiled and said, "I don't understand these rules. Why don't you, father-in-law, show me these old year's brochures first, so that I can get familiar with them?"

When the old palace man heard about it, he could only smile and said: "Of course."

As he was about to get up to get it, Hairpin Hua immediately said with a smile: "You, old man, lead the way. There are many of us, so let's move there."

Li Bin stood up and said with a smile: "They must be placed in the same room, right? We don't need to move them, just go and take a look."

The archives room was not a confidential room originally. Although it could not be shown to outsiders casually, since Libi came under the order of the Queen Mother, there was no need for him to stop her.

The old palace man took Li's concubine in. Li's concubine only asked Hairpin Hua and Zicuckoo to accompany her in, while the others served outside.

Now that she has come in, Li Concubine can read as she pleases. The hairpin is perfunctory to the old palace man, and Li Concubine searches for the information she wants to read and starts reading on the spot.

What Concubine Li wanted to know was the situation of the late emperor's princes. If she wanted to know this, besides asking from the elders in the palace, the best place to know was Taixue.

Fortunately, all the late emperor's books were placed at the end, and Shen Yanzhi only had one book here.

Li Bin immediately started to read.

The late emperor had many concubines in his harem, as well as a lot of children. Although the Queen Mother kept strict supervision, she still couldn't take care of them all, and many princesses still stayed.

What Li Bin wants to know is that Concubine Xian wrote about Four Deaths and Nine Lives. Should it be talking about the fourth and ninth princes?

However, Concubine Li opened the list of princes and found that the late emperor only had five princes in total.

Where did the four deaths and nine lives come from?

The eldest prince fell off his horse and died. In his weak years, the second prince was born to Concubine Mei. He died of illness when he was nearly sixteen years old, and then the third prince became His Majesty.

The fourth prince is Shen Hebei. Shen Hebei was born to a talented person with a low status in the palace. The talented person died in childbirth after giving birth. His Majesty personally took the child to find the Queen Mother and sent it to the Queen Mother.

Therefore, in terms of title, Shen Hebei can be regarded as his legitimate son.

The fourth prince was none other than Shen Hebei, but among the four deaths written on the note, didn't Shen Hebei die?
Concubine Li pressed the button and looked at the fifth prince.

The fifth prince was born to Concubine Rong and died of illness when he was full moon. There is nothing to mention about this.

So Li Bin flipped forward again and focused on Shen Hebei's information.

"Eunuch, did all the princes of the late emperor go to Imperial College together?"

When the old father-in-law heard about it, he immediately reported back: "The late emperor's eldest prince, second prince, and Your Majesty, the three princes went to the Imperial College together and were taught by the same Imperial College gentleman."

"Oh, what about the Fourth Prince?"

"The fourth prince, the current prince, he is quite special. Although he is listed in the Imperial College, he has never been to the Imperial College for a single day."

Concubine Li was a little surprised when she heard this: "I heard that the prince is very talented, how come he never went to school?"

The old father-in-law chuckled and said: "My dear, what I said is that the prince has never entered the Imperial College. This matter is interesting. Let me slowly tell you to your Majesty."

"Your Majesty, he has been good-looking since he was a child. He is cuter than the princesses in the harem. I can't blame the ladies for loving him."

"On that day, Prince Ning, Prince Yong, Prince An and other princesses came to the palace for the banquet. Princess Ning fell in love with the prince immediately, and the Queen Mother made the decision to adopt Princess Ning."

"Princess Ning's child happened to pass away. Naturally, she loved her like a treasure and took her out of the palace."

"I see."

Concubine Li put down the book and found the late emperor's generation again.

The late emperor had a total of nine brothers. The late emperor was the eldest and the legitimate son, so he took the throne without any controversy.

And Lao Jiu is Prince Ning!

Four deaths, nine lives!
She should be talking about Shen Hebei!

Li Bin was just thinking while holding the book. Seeing this, Hairpin Hua said to the old palace man: "You are also taking care of these files?"

The old palace man went to chat with Hairpin Hua.

Zicuckoo then took the opportunity to walk to Concubine Li and asked softly: "What else do you want to see, my empress? I will help you find it."

Although Zicuckoo followed her all the way, she had no idea what Li's concubine was investigating. When Li's concubine put down a book, she went up to read it and found that Li's concubine was looking at the list of princes in the past.

This is strange. What was Libi doing to investigate these things?
So she asked, and if Concubine Li didn't have a kind answer, Zijuan decided not to stay with her.

Li Bin put down the book and said with a smile: "No, I have finished reading it."

After saying that, he turned around and said to the old palace man: "I suddenly feel dizzy and weak. Please come back to help my husband another day."

After leaving Taixue, Zijuan saluted and said: "I remember that I still have something to do and need to go back -"

Concubine Li waved to Zijuan and said, "Don't be anxious. I have something I want you to help bring to my sister."
