Chapter 394: Madam Song and Concubine Rou (2/2)



After thinking about it, it is still more reliable to come to the capital. After all, if the eldest prince wants to ascend to the throne, he needs her help.

She knew that even if she didn't come to ask her sister for help, her sister would find a way to help Song He get another official position, but she really didn't want to stay in the capital and wanted to go somewhere else, preferably Qingshan Prefecture.

But if she wanted to do these things, money was not enough. She also needed her sister to persuade the emperor.

Therefore, she could not hide anything from her sister, so she told her that Prince Chen had taken away Song He's official hat on the grounds that he was not good at controlling the locust plague.

"Sister, do you think I'm easy to fool? That's why you don't want to tell me the truth."

Concubine Rou was able to survive in the cannibalistic harem and give birth to the eldest and fourth princes, relying not only on her family background but also on her wisdom and means.

She could tell at a glance whether her sister was telling her the truth or not.

The success in controlling the locust plague was definitely not the reason why the Prince took action. There must be other hidden reasons.

At this time, the woman kneeling on the ground could tell from her sister's tone that her sister was angry. If she still concealed something, the consequences would be beyond her ability to bear.

"Sister, don't be angry. I'll tell you what she said next. She told you everything about how Song He accepted bribes and how his son bullied boys and girls, causing public outrage."

After hearing this, Concubine Rou was furious. If she didn't have that much ability, she could just order her subordinates to do it. But she could accept bribes and bully men and women. What kind of nonsense is this?

The Prince of Chen holds the power to supervise all officials. No matter where he is, as long as he finds that an official has done something similar, he can deal with it directly without having to report it to the emperor.

The Emperor gave Prince Chen such great power. It wasn't that no one objected, but the objection was ineffective, and Prince Chen took the opportunity to deal with many people.

Song He and Song Guangqing fell into the hands of Prince Chen for this reason, and they deserved to be punished.

But she couldn't just ignore it. She didn't know what was wrong with the emperor to issue such an imperial decree.

Although she didn't believe that Prince Chen could properly resettle the victims in the two prefectures, there are always unexpected events.

What if, what if Prince Chen really succeeds, wouldn’t he be able to directly take the throne of the Crown Prince?

Although the Prince of Chen was poisoned, which affected that part of his body and made it difficult for women to conceive, it would also affect his offspring.

Even if Prince Chen becomes the crown prince, he will face considerable resistance if he has no offspring.

But so what? When Prince Chen really ascends the throne and becomes the emperor, it won't be difficult to pick a boy from the royal family to train.

But she believed that once Prince Chen became emperor, she and her two sons would never have a good ending.

Therefore, no matter what, she had to find good help for her son.

Her sister was in good condition, but Song He was fine. Even the position of prefect was obtained by her shamelessly begging the emperor.

But Song He and his son were courting death and fell into the hands of Prince Chen, so they deserved to be taken down.

Although she thought so in her heart, she would not say it in front of her sister. Instead, she would comfort her.

"Sister, don't be anxious. This won't happen overnight. I still need to find an opportunity."

"Sister, I know I've put you in a difficult position."

Just as Concubine Rou was talking to her sister, a palace maid came to report that the eldest prince had arrived.

Concubine Rou immediately stopped talking with her sister.

"Sister, I remember what you said. So please go back and wait for my letter."

Mrs. Song saw that her goal was not achieved and she wanted to beg him, but she also knew that she couldn't go too far, even if Concubine Rou was her biological sister, so she had to go along with the conversation.

"Okay, sister, I haven't seen the eldest prince for many years. How about letting me stay and see my nephew?"
