Chapter 347 The Unfavored Princess
"Your humble servant greets His Majesty."
The Ninth Prince simply ignored the Queen.
Shen Zhaotong followed the Ninth Prince in paying his respects.
The anger on the emperor's face had not disappeared. When he saw the Ninth Prince and Shen Zhao, he just frowned slightly and said nothing.
Shen Zhao took the opportunity to observe the Queen and the Sixth Princess.
But the queen calmly distanced herself from the Sixth Princess.
The disgust in his eyes was not concealed at all.
The Sixth Princess's hand reaching out to the Queen instantly froze in mid-air.
She silently withdrew her hand, with a hint of loneliness in her eyes.
[My mother hates me touching her the most. I almost made her angry again just now...]
"Mother, I will immediately send for the imperial physician."
[Although my mother is cold to me, she is still my mother after all.
He is the one who gave birth to me and raised me, so I shouldn’t harbor any resentment towards him.]
As she spoke, the Sixth Princess began to give instructions to the palace maids around her.
"Chaohua, go back to your Buddhist temple." The queen said coldly.
A look of hurt flashed across the Sixth Princess's face.
"But you are injured, mother. I am worried about you..."
"There's no need for you to worry about me. Go back to your temple. You're not a royal doctor, so you're useless here."
The Queen spoke again.
This is not my biological child, so I treat him/her cruelly.
The corners of the Sixth Princess' eyes were red and her eyes were shining with tears.
"Yes, mother, please don't be angry. I will return to the temple and pray for you and father."
After saying this, the Sixth Princess staggered to her feet and saluted the Emperor:
"I was anxious just now and did not pay my respects to the Emperor. I beg your forgiveness."
[My father has never liked me. I was so rude just now. I'm afraid he must hate me even more.]
[I thought I was terrible, not loved by my parents, and even my brother was indifferent and distant to me.]
[I have been worshipping you for over ten years. Could you please tell me what sins I committed in my past life that have caused me to be without any relatives in this life?]
It was the first time that Shen Zhao heard the choked voice.
She felt a little sorry for the Sixth Princess.
It's not her fault.
The queen disliked her because she was not her biological daughter.
Although she was replaced by someone sent by the Queen.
But in the eyes of the queen, she replaced her biological daughter and enjoyed the honor of a princess.
In the palace, he enjoyed fine clothes and delicious food and was served by palace maids and eunuchs.
I naturally hate her very much.
The emperor dislikes the Sixth Princess because he knows that she is not his child.
Not only is it not his own, it is also a disgrace to his brilliant life.
So how could the emperor be kind to the Sixth Princess?
The prince should know all of this, so he doesn't have any brotherly or sisterly feelings towards this fake person who has no blood relationship with him.
But don’t they think the Sixth Princess is innocent?
The emperor's eyes darkened.
"Chaohua, do you know why your mother summoned you and then sent you away?"
Chao Hua shook his head, "I don't know."
Shen Zhao looked at the Sixth Princess in front of him. In fact, she knew everything, but she just didn't say it.
How could I not know? The palace maid who went to announce my arrival has already informed me.
Let me cooperate with my mother later and not disobey her orders.
These days, my mother has been saying that she wants to marry me off to someone else.
I also need to remember that my husband must be someone who can help my brother, the emperor, and preferably one who holds military power.]
The Sixth Princess subconsciously glanced at Shen Zhao.
Then he shook his head and smiled bitterly.
[My mother will not choose General Chu, and I will probably be betrothed to the Chen and Wu families.
That's not a place for me to live...]
The emperor's eyes grew even colder.
"You are truly a good daughter to your mother."
"Your mother has asked me to come here and ask me to arrange a marriage for you. Do you know who she is asking for?"
A hint of disappointment flashed across the Sixth Princess's eyes.
In front of her, my father is always the king and the emperor.
"The matchmaker's words are my parents' orders. As long as it's arranged by my mother and father, I will marry."
It was obvious that the Sixth Princess's answer made the Emperor very dissatisfied.
"You're going to marry a pus-filled idiot!"
"The person you're begging for behind the scenes is the second eldest son of the Wu family. Do you know that he's neither good at literature nor martial arts, and has a violent temper? If you marry him, you'll have to follow him to the border.
If something were to happen and no one would answer your calls to heaven or earth, would you be willing to do that? "
The emperor looked at the Sixth Princess.
Chaohua looked bitter.
It turned out that her mother had chosen the second son of the Wu family for her.
"As long as the Queen Mother wishes the Emperor's consent, I am willing to marry."
"Well, then I will grant you an imperial decree to marry you to the second son of the Wu family."
After saying that, he angrily threw his sleeves and left.
The palace maids said in unison: "Farewell, Your Majesty."
When the emperor reached the entrance of the hall, he paused.
"This world belongs to me, so put an end to any inappropriate thoughts you may have."
Of course, these words were spoken to the queen.
The Ninth Prince followed slowly, and when he reached the Queen, he spoke softly.
"I haven't seen you for many years, and you're still as stupid as ever.
The Wu family is also under your control... I'm afraid it will cause a lot of trouble by then... How could this king forget that the emperor's sister-in-law is a playboy and a flirt..."
"You... dare to disrespect me!" The Queen's face was gloomy, and she blushed with shame at the Ninth Prince's words.
"So what if I'm disrespectful to you? Everything you did to A-Li back then, I will repay you a thousand-fold.
My dear sister-in-law, please open your eyes and watch carefully. I will make sure you don't even have the chance to regret."
After saying that, he walked away.
When Shen Zhao reached the end and just stepped out of the hall, he suddenly heard a loud slap.
“Pah…”
"Useless thing, what's the point of giving birth to you? Why don't you go to your Buddhist temple and reflect on your mistakes..."
Shen Zhao's eyes turned cold.
She was going to speed up.
After leaving the palace, I will ask my eldest brother and Xie Yuheng to trick Li Yuwan into talking.
Is the Sixth Princess her second sister?
Shen Zhao followed the emperor and the ninth prince to the study room with great thoughts in mind.
"Xiaojiu, are you and Mu'er going to the palace together for some important matter?"
The old emperor pressed his forehead, obviously in a bad mood.
The Ninth Prince kicked Shen Zhao on the butt.
"Brother Emperor is asking you a question, why don't you answer it?"
This kick was delivered with full force, causing Shen Zhao to stagger.
"Xiaojiu..." the emperor shouted in disapproval.
"The Emperor's uncle should act like an Emperor's uncle."
After saying that, he looked at Shen Zhao again, a hint of sympathy flashing in his eyes.
How did Mu'er provoke Xiaojiu?
Shen Zhao received sympathy from the emperor.
He brushed off the dust on his body and said, "Your Majesty, I have something important to report."
She still wasn't used to calling herself a son and a minister.
Her father already has two and doesn't want any more.
Even if the other party is the emperor.
"My brother came from Lingnan last night..."
Shen Zhao told the emperor why his elder brother came to Kyoto and why the six princes were planning a rebellion.
The emperor's expression suddenly became serious.
"It seems that these people are going to unite and rebel against me."
Shen Zhao keenly grasped the "they" mentioned by the old emperor.
Could it be that it's not just the six kings who are planning a rebellion, but other forces have also begun to take action?
The old emperor pondered for a moment and said, "That idiot Lao Liu did a good thing.
If the news of Mu'er's assassination gets out, those who are ready to make a move will probably start to act."
"I failed to kill them all twenty-three years ago. Now I will annihilate them all in one fell swoop."
Then he looked at the Ninth Prince, "Ninth brother, I'm sorry to inconvenience you for a bit."
Chen Zhao was stunned. He was just talking about her, why was she talking about making the Ninth Prince feel wronged again?
It only took a moment for Shen Zhao to understand why the emperor said that.
