He only knew that the imperial physician went to Prince Chen's mansion and said that Prince Chen would have difficulty having children in the future. When the imperial physician said this, some people did not believe it, while others did.
But no matter what the real situation was, once the news about Prince Chen's difficulty in raising an heir came out, it cut off Prince Chen's chances of succeeding to the throne.
He had no intention of standing on Prince Chen's side. What happened to Prince Chen had little to do with Prince An's Mansion.
Who knew that the emperor would issue such an imperial decree and put Prince Chen in the spotlight again? He had heard that both the eldest and second princes had sent assassins but they just didn't succeed.
He knew that this was the most critical moment in the fight for the throne. Although the capital seemed calm, there were actually turbulent undercurrents.
If we wait for Prince Chen to return to the capital, bloody storm will break out again.
If Prince An's Mansion wants to survive this power transition, it cannot just remain neutral and needs to quickly take sides.
Since his niece gave birth to three sons and one daughter for Prince Chen, breaking the rumor that Prince Chen had difficulty in having an heir, it actually made a good choice for Prince An's Mansion. He no longer needed to think about this matter and just had to stand wholeheartedly on Prince Chen's side.
He was never the type to hesitate. Once he made a decision, he would not regret it and would try his best to help Prince Chen succeed.
So after Xie Yunzhou left, Prince An called in the secret guards and contacted Prince Chen.
The Imperial Palace of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Kunning Palace, has always been a palace that only the empress has the right to live in.
This is the queen in her own bedroom. Looking at the letter in her hand, the corners of her mouth unconsciously rise, and her eyes are like two bright stars, flashing a light called expectation.
The queen's good mood can be felt by everyone serving in the palace, especially Hongye, the queen's personal maid.
She didn't know why the Queen suddenly became so happy. You know, ever since His Royal Highness the Third Prince left the capital, the Queen had not been worried for a single day, and had not been happy for a single day.
Even though the Emperor issued such an imperial edict to His Royal Highness the Third Prince, the Empress did not seem very happy. Instead, she was depressed every day. Even when the Emperor was ill, the Empress only visited him symbolically. Usually, it was Concubine Rou who took care of him.
She once advised the Queen to visit the Emperor more often, but the Queen refused to respond and looked sad every day.
But today was different. She could clearly feel the Queen's excitement that came from the bottom of her heart.
But she didn't dare ask the queen what was written in the letter.
She knew that she was lucky and was fortunate to be able to serve the queen. The queen also trusted her and would not hide anything from her no matter what she did.
But she also knew that the reason why she could stay with the queen for so long and win the queen's trust was not for no reason, but because she had her own sense and knew what to ask and what not to ask.
The queen's gloomy mood of the past few days was immediately cleared up by a letter, and it was obvious that the content of the letter was extraordinary.
However, she could guess that it must be related to His Royal Highness the Third Prince, but she just didn't know what it was.
Just as Hongye was wondering why the queen was so happy and what was written in the letter, the queen spoke.
"Hongye, go to Qiankun Palace."
"yes."
After hearing the Queen's instructions, Hongye hurried downstairs to ask people to prepare. She walked quickly, thinking that the Queen had finally come to her senses and was willing to go to Qiankun Palace.
Otherwise, she was really afraid that over time, the relationship between the emperor and the empress would gradually fade, giving Concubine Rou and Concubine Sheng an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
