The queen became even angrier after hearing this and glared at the maid who made the suggestion. "What are you talking about? The old man hasn't woken up since he was struck by lightning! You are forcing me!"
Emperor Donglin knew that the Queen would definitely not agree to this matter, so he made the decision on his own and planned to compensate her later.
By the way, after the court session, Wang Dehai asked the second prince to persuade the queen.
After Emperor Donglin knew the Second Prince's attitude, he felt at ease to let him take action.
Sure enough, after hearing this, the Second Prince patted his chest and promised that he would complete the task.
For the sake of his own life and the future development of Donglin Kingdom, he must support all good decisions made by Emperor Donglin for Xiao Ruoyi.
"Mother, don't be so angry!" As soon as the second prince entered Kunning Palace, he heard the queen's dissatisfied words inside and hurried to comfort her.
The queen raised her head and looked at the second prince, and scolded him unhappily, "You were in class, why are you back?"
The second prince's eyes flickered, "Father called the teacher for something, so he decided to dismiss school early!"
In order to avoid some trouble, Emperor Donglin simply ordered the class to end early today and asked someone to give instructions to the Second Prince.
...
...
When the queen heard her son mention Emperor Donglin, her face turned even uglier. She complained to her son directly, "Oh, your father is really heartless. He has completely forgotten about us, mother and son!"
The second prince smiled awkwardly and wanted to explain for his father, but he didn’t!
And he couldn't tell the Queen that he came back on the orders of his father, specifically to comfort and persuade his mother.
"Mother, I think this matter will benefit you in every way and will not cause any harm!"
After hearing this, the queen felt the muscles at the corners of her eyes twitching. She glared at the second prince fiercely, looking at him as if she wanted to give him a "love education".
"Bang!" The Queen slammed the table fiercely, "Xiao Wenyan, are you my son? You actually supported that little bitch!"
The second prince was startled at once. He was still shocked by the majesty of the queen, the mother of a country. He quickly waved his hands to deny, "No, no, mother, I am just analyzing with you! Really! Just analyzing. Mother, can you listen to my analysis?"
By the end of his speech, the second prince had rushed to the queen and looked at her pleadingly.
After all, he was her own son, yet he still looked at her with such a fiery snake. The queen could only take a few deep breaths, suppress the anger in her heart, and fiercely slapped the second prince's hand away, "Speak!"
Although the second prince felt a burning pain in his hand after it was slapped away, he still secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, his mother gave him this opportunity.
The second prince quickly explained to the queen, "Mother, you should know that my sister has a very good reputation among the people. Yesterday, she helped Jingzhao Prefecture to eliminate the human traffickers' den in the entire imperial city and rescued the abducted children. She also built an orphanage for those children to take them in and send people to teach them so that they can become the pillars of our Donglin country! This move has continuously raised her status among the people!"
"Father did this probably to elevate the status of the royal family by making the younger sister the eldest princess! The eldest princess has always been an honor only given to the empress's legitimate daughter, but now that it has been given to the younger sister, it is actually equivalent to adopting the younger sister to you, representing her as your daughter. As the mother of the queen, you will also be respected by the people because of this, and Concubine Liang will not take advantage of the opportunity to snatch the position of empress!"
Finally, the second prince gritted his teeth and asked the queen, "Does mother want to offend father and lose the support of the people? In the future, if she is not careful, she will lose her position as queen and be replaced by Concubine Liang?"
After hearing her son's analysis, the queen's face suddenly became serious. After listening to her son's analysis, she felt as if she was powerless to stop it, and she became even more unwilling to accept it.
"Are you going to let my mother suffer in silence?"
Seeing that he could not be persuaded, the Second Prince quickly pulled out his trump card, "Mother, you have not forgotten the current situation of the Royal Grandmother, have you?"
"It was just struck by lightning!"
"But I think this lightning strike should be because the Imperial Grandmother offended the Imperial Sister!"
The queen's face suddenly turned black, and she gave that little bitch face!
"Stop talking nonsense!"
"I'm not talking nonsense! This is the truth. After all, the lightning struck the emperor after the grandmother made things difficult for the emperor's younger sister! And it only struck the two of them!"
The queen still refused to admit it and fought back, "It was an accident! Who knew that the thunderbolt would strike the Cining Palace!"
As the Queen's voice grew lower and lower towards the end, the Second Prince knew that his mother had lost confidence.
In fact, the queen also felt that this thunder was very strange.
"Mother, the emperor's younger sister is in favor right now, we must not stand out! Otherwise, we will be the only ones who suffer!"
The queen turned around and glared at the second prince, "Who are you on the side of? I am your mother!"
The second prince immediately shrank his neck, "I'm just being realistic!"
The Queen snorted coldly, her face full of anger and jealousy, "It's all because of your father's partiality!"
The second prince touched his nose and didn't know how to persuade his angry mother. He really wanted to tell her that everything was because of Yiyi's master, but he couldn't.
I heard from my father that he dreamed about the late emperor, who said that the imperial sister is the lucky star of their Donglin Kingdom.
There is something magical about the imperial sister, which is why the emperor dotes on her so much.
Others didn't believe it, but he, who heard the inner voice, believed it 100%. The imperial sister must be the lucky star of Donglin Kingdom.
"Mother, one day you will understand!"
(Taoist Qingping, "No need for one day! You will know the day after tomorrow!")
After the Second Prince's repeated admonitions, and for safety reasons, he stayed with the Queen all day long, and managed to prevent the Queen from doing anything wrong.
At the same time, this news also reached the ears of the third prince who had been paying attention to the movements outside.
The third prince also heard that Xiao Ruoyi was about to be canonized as a princess according to the ceremony of the eldest princess, and he was extremely angry.
"Damn that little bastard, what on earth did she use to bewitch my father and make him lean towards her?"
Xiao Quanzi looked helplessly at the Third Prince who was only capable of rage and incompetence, "Third Prince, this cannot be changed now, what should we do now?"
He was tied to the Third Prince, and seeing the Third Prince's current condition, he could foresee how difficult his future life would be.
These past few days, he had been out doing things for the Third Prince, and had been completely ignored, and even severely bullied by other eunuchs.
A cold light flashed in the third prince's eyes. Who said that it cannot be changed?
He has a trump card!
If the Queen Mother had not been seriously injured and unconscious due to the lightning that caused the collapse of the Cining Palace, Xiao Ruoyi would probably not have been in any danger.
"Go make some arrangements and go see my mother tonight!"
