How could you know his plan so clearly?

"Ah, no, father, please listen to my explanation, I..." Although the fifth prince is smart, he is not good at speaking.

I thought about it for a long time, but I couldn't figure it out.

The tyrant kicked him again, "Do you want me to hear you say those nonsense again? You are a prince, but you are plotting against your brother and disturbing the emperor's heart.

From today on, your title of prince will be stripped away, and you will be demoted to a commoner. You are not allowed to set foot in the capital city again in your life! "

Fifth Prince:?

He was terrified and came to his senses from the shock, "Father - please don't!!! I am the chosen son of God, I am the future crown prince, the future emperor of the Tiansheng Dynasty - ah!"

The great tyrant really thought that the fifth prince was crazy.

He was so angry that he winked at the guards, and a knifeman chopped the fifth prince unconscious.

[Scumbag dad, Fifth Brother is crazy about becoming the emperor]

The Tyrant:!

snort!

Is it so easy to become emperor?

Unless he is crazy, he would not hand over the throne to such a rebellious son!

…

The tyrant carried Abao back to Yihe Palace.

"Let you, Concubine De, take care of the Empress Dowager's return to the palace." The tyrant gave an order.

Generally speaking, concubines who can handle major events in the harem will have the opportunity to be promoted in the future.

After all, concubines of low rank are not qualified to participate in important affairs of the harem.

De Fei was somewhat flattered and bowed: "I obey your order."

[Mom, this is a dangerous job for you]

The smile on Concubine De's face froze in an instant.

The Tyrant:?

Po blinked his big eyes and turned them around.

[Mother, the Empress Dowager will go through the east gate when she returns to the palace. Assassins have already ambushed there. 】

[After the Empress Dowager was assassinated, you became the scapegoat, and your beautiful mother would be in danger.]

Concubine De was so frightened that she stood there.

But she is the legitimate daughter of the general's mansion after all, and has extremely strong psychological qualities.

After a moment, she took A Bao from the tyrant's arms as if nothing had happened, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, I have a suggestion, but I don't know if I should say it or not."

Tyrant: "You can say whatever you want."

"I live deep in the harem, and I have heard some gossip about the palace from many servants.

Unexplained incidents have occurred frequently this year. To be on the safe side, I think it would be better to change the route my mother takes when returning to the palace in previous years. Instead of returning from the east gate, we can return from the south gate. What do you think? "

【Goose! My smart mother! I'll give you a thumbs up! 】

[This coincides with my thoughts. It turns out that mother and daughter are connected by heart.]

[I just don't know if my scumbag dad would agree. After all, returning to the palace from the South Gate is not as grand as returning from the East Gate! 】

[But you scumbag dad, you can't just look at the form, you have to consider your mother's safety. 】

The great tyrant raised his eyebrows calmly, "Why did Concubine De make such a suggestion?"

"I have been feeling uneasy these past few days. My mother just happened to be back in the palace, and I am worried that something has happened to her.

I became more cautious and just wanted to put my mother's safety first. "De Fei lowered her eyes.

All this is thanks to Abao's reminder.

Otherwise, if she had encountered this disaster, she would never see Abao again.

"I just said that you have full authority over this matter. Whether to go through the east gate or the south gate, it's up to you. You don't need to discuss it with me."

Concubine De smiled and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will definitely do a great job on this matter."

-

Late at night, the tyrant returned to the imperial study and was reviewing memorials.

"What a mess this is! There isn't a single useful suggestion!"

The great tyrant flipped through several memorials and became so angry that his eyebrows were crooked.

"The Lingnan plague has been going on for a month. Hasn't the eldest prince already rushed to the epidemic area? How could there be a riot in the epidemic area? Where is the money allocated by the court?"

Eunuch Xi stood aside, trembling.

It is true that living with the king is like living with a tiger.

"What are you standing there for? Speak!"

Eunuch Xi:?

Your Majesty.

I am just a slave.

How dare I interfere in the affairs of the court?

Eunuch Xi was panicking and crawled on the ground, "Your Majesty, calm down. Princess Abao is still waiting for you to pamper her. Please don't get angry and hurt your health."

"Abao?" The tyrant was stunned.

It's like discovering a new world.

The eagle's deep eyes suddenly sparkled.

Since he can hear Po's inner voice, can he...

the next day.

After Abao had eaten his fill, he stretched lazily in Concubine De's arms. There seemed to be a faint scent of milk in the air.

After being reborn as a cub, she wants to drink back all the milk that she didn’t drink in her previous life, haha.

"Your Majesty, Eunuch Xi is here. He said he is following the Emperor's orders to bring the Tenth Princess to attend the palace banquet."

"Palace banquet?" Defei was curious. Didn't they just attend it yesterday?

"Your Majesty~" Defei did not expect that the tyrant would come to Yihe Palace in person.

Ever since she gave birth to Abao, the Emperor has come to Yihe Palace more frequently.

"Is Po awake?"

"Yeah, I'm awake."

"That's good."

Concubine De: "Your Majesty, are you going to take Abao with you..."

The great tyrant took Abao and said with a smile, "I have set up a banquet for Abao in the imperial garden to entertain all the ministers and celebrate Abao's new life."

Concubine De:?

this……

She had only heard of the full moon banquet, but there was also a birth banquet?

The nine royal heirs in the harem did not have any birth banquets.

The Tyrant lowered his head and coaxed Po, "Po is the protagonist today, come on, I'll take you out to play."

When it comes to playing, Abao's eyes light up.

【Let’s go play】

【Thank you, scumbag dad】

The tyrant was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and happily carried Abao to the harem.

For some reason, Po felt that today's party was different from previous ones.

There was laughter and joy yesterday, but today the atmosphere is a bit solemn.

"Your Majesty, the Minister of Personnel, Lord Zong, and the Deputy Minister, Lord Lin, have arrived."

The Tyrant held Po in his arms and sat at the head of the table. "Let them both take their seats."

"Your Highness." The two adults bowed in unison.

There were only three of them in the entire banquet hall.

Your Excellencies:?

This banquet was a little different from what they had imagined.

The atmosphere is a bit tense. What's going on?

Zong Daren had been an official for many years and was very perceptive. He immediately took out something wrapped in a piece of brocade from his waist and said, "Your Majesty, this is a birth gift from me to the Tenth Princess. I hope that the Tenth Princess will be safe and happy in the future."

When I opened it, there was a golden leaf.

Mr. Zong’s wife opened a medicine shop in the capital and it is doing well.

In addition to the monthly salary from Lord Zong, plus the medicine business run by his wife, it is not difficult to make some money.

Even from a distance of dozens of meters, Abao could see it clearly.

The gold leaf is delicate and beautiful.

[Master Zong is really good at doing things. I like gold the most. You have embezzled so much silver, Lingnan Plague. I don’t mind if you give me a few more gold leaves. The more the better.]

The Tyrant:? ?

Good job!

He said that he had allocated so much money to the epidemic area, but he still couldn't control the epidemic area, which led to riots.

So this is the reason!
