He knew that admitting his love for Wan Ge was exposing his weakness, but he didn't care. If he couldn't even protect the person he loved, then he wouldn't be the crown prince.

Seeing him like this, the emperor took a deep breath and felt helpless.

Xuan Yi looked at his father and said seriously: "I only want her in this life, and I will do everything to protect her, even my own life."

Seeing the extremely determined look in his son's eyes, he continued to say: "But things in life are destined not to go as you imagine. Marrying the daughter of a minister to stabilize the court is a must."

"I don't need it. If I can only rely on this to stabilize myself, I might as well not have such a position."

Listening to his son's extremely determined words, the emperor trembled in his heart. If he had been so determined at the beginning, then would the queen not have died?

When the imperial concubine was unwilling to go to the marriage, when he did so, there was actually another reason, and the imperial concubine and General Jian also knew it.

That is, if he said that he liked the imperial concubine so much in this situation, then she would be his favorite concubine in the future, and he would try his best to protect her, but the insidiousness of the harem might still fall on her.

The imperial concubine knew the dangers of the deep palace, and she also knew that she had no freedom when the other party named her to marry.

But compared to those, she would rather stay in her own country. Marrying is a very spineless and terrifying thing.

So the imperial concubine still agreed, and because they both used each other, they could only be friends forever, and would not exceed the boundary of friends.

On the surface, it seems that the imperial concubine has received countless honors, but in fact, the closest action of the emperor to her may just be holding hands in front of outsiders.

Even though almost everyone believes that the imperial concubine is the emperor's favorite, there are still people who think that as long as the queen is alive, she will always be a threat to them.

And they also know that the Jian family is powerful, so she can only be the imperial concubine at most. If she becomes the queen and gives birth to a legitimate son, the Jian family will threaten the emperor's position, and the emperor will definitely not let the imperial concubine become the queen.

Then, only when the queen died did they have a chance to become queens. They didn't care whether they were the emperor's favorite or not, as long as they could hold the position of queen.

So an accident happened in a mistake. The queen was poisoned. It was difficult to remove the poison because of her pregnancy.

The poison did not affect the fetus. Xuan Yi was already eight months old at that time, but the only way to completely remove the poison was after giving birth or aborting the child.

The queen didn't want to give up the child and decided to treat it thoroughly after giving birth.

It only took two months, and the poisoning was already very deep. Although it couldn't take her life immediately, it was already difficult to completely remove the poison.

Therefore, after Xuan Yi was born, the queen's health was not very good, and it was also for this reason that she died when he was young.

Neither the queen nor the emperor blamed the child for this. One blamed herself for being too careless and not protecting herself and the child. Fortunately, the child was fine.

The other blamed herself even more, and also felt that she had not protected the queen and her child well, which made the queen have such a thing.

He said he would protect her for her whole life, but he still found someone else's way. The emperor loved the queen but felt guilty about it, so he liked the prince more and more.
