Chapter 254 He wants to pave the way for your second brother

Huangfuyan's departure caused panic in the whole capital.

It should be said that everyone had already guessed that the crown prince would not live long, but guesses belonged to guesses, and plans belonged to plans. What made everyone feel uneasy this time was that the emperor's actions were too extreme.

Yunfu Palace, the palace of Concubine Shu.

Among several high-ranking imperial concubines, the most inconspicuous one is this Concubine Shu.

Concubine De has the eldest son of the emperor and has a family background. Concubine Liang has the emperor's favor. Needless to say, the empress was bestowed by the first emperor. Concubine Xian has an elder brother who holds military power. It's just that her uncle, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, is already in his 60s, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to go any further.

So she has always kept a low profile in the palace, neither fighting nor grabbing, anyway, she was upbeat and gave birth to a son, the fourth prince, early.Although both their mother and son are not valued by the emperor, it is no problem to live in peace and stability.

But this time, when she heard that the emperor forced the prince to go to the border, she couldn't sit still.

Pacing back and forth in the palace, he hurriedly asked someone to pass the fourth prince into the palace.

As soon as the fourth prince came, she hurriedly retreated from the palace guards, grabbed his hand and said, "Xin'er, what is your father going to do? He, he is planning to send the prince to die! Then, what will happen next?" It won't be your turn? Xin'er, what should I do? What should I do?"

Concubine Shu is really not very courageous, and the backstage is not that hard. Although she also had the idea of ​​hoping that her son could take the throne, she was frightened by the emperor's series of actions, and her courage was broken.As long as the emperor doesn't have any ideas about her son, she will kowtow and burn incense.

The fourth prince, Huangfu Xin, is actually the most stable among the several princes besides Huangfu Yan. The eldest prince is mentally abnormal, and no matter how much he pretends on the surface, he can't change his twisted psychology. Insolent and ignorant, the fifth prince is the youngest, and the concubine Xian has a heavy heart, so it is inevitable that he will often whisper orders, which will affect his temper.The fourth prince, on the other hand, was a little transparent among his brothers since he was a child. The emperor has always had a dispensable mentality towards his son, and occasionally he would praise him when he remembered it, but he almost couldn't remember it on weekdays.

So the fourth prince knew how to live a peaceful life since he was a child, and with Concubine Shu's courage, she didn't dare to persuade him to rebel or something, but he was the one who lived the most relaxed life.

Of course, the fourth prince is also smart. From the war between his brothers and younger brothers, he also realized a set of survival philosophies, which is to continue to hide and be a little transparent.

Seeing his mother and concubine in such a panic, the fourth prince couldn't help but comfort him: "Mother and concubine, don't worry, father is getting older, and he will inevitably be biased. My son has always been cautious, and he hasn't made any mistakes. Father will not take care of you." The anger came to me."

"It's not like he's partial just now." Concubine Shu muttered in a low voice that only she could hear.

"What did the concubine say?" the fourth prince asked.

"It's nothing." Concubine Shu looked at her son worriedly: "Concubine Mother only has you as a son. As long as you can be good, Concubine Mother will be satisfied. Concubine Mother is afraid now. Your father, he, he will give Your second brother is paving the way! Tell me, what should we do? Do you want to..."

"It's absolutely impossible!" The Fourth Prince immediately interrupted Concubine Shu before she could say anything.
