Chapter 1206 Her Origin is Unknown
The Imperial Garden had long been cleared of outsiders.
The emperor was furious, Princess Jun was also there, and the empress dowager hurried over too. The palace servants saw that the situation was not right and left early.
When the emperor was about to get angry, he waved his hand and asked them to leave.
Now the only ones left here were the emperor and a eunuch beside him, the empress dowager and the old nanny who was supporting her, and Fu Zhaoning.
There was also a rooster scratching the soil under the flowers not far away.
Now that things have come to this, there is no point in hiding it any further.
The emperor also gave up.
He looked at the Queen Mother with fierce eyes.
It was the first time that the Queen Mother was stared at like this by him, and she couldn't help but take a step back.
"Now I remember that I had a chance to ask my father to take Xiao Lanyuan to a distant fiefdom. The weather there is bad, the natives are fierce and rebellious. Besides, the taxes are low, and it has long been designated as his fiefdom."
The emperor said harshly, "If Xiao Lanyuan really went there at that time, nothing would happen! Maybe I would miss him from time to time, and even give him some rewards."
The Queen Mother also remembered that time.
Why would he miss A Yuan from time to time? If A Yuan really went to such a poor, bad and unruly place, with unruly people, he would die within two years with his physical condition. How could he expect the emperor to reward him?
"My father had clearly agreed at that time, but it was you, mother, who coaxed me at that time, saying that if we send him so far away, who knows if he will leave the palace to enjoy himself? We don't know what's going on. What if he grows up in his fiefdom? Who knows, he may become a threat in the future. You said that it's more reassuring to keep him under your watch."
The emperor was furious when he thought of that incident now.
"At that time, I really believed that you wanted to keep him in front of you and torture him from time to time. I really believed it!"
In addition to that incident, there were many other similar incidents.
He really had never doubted it before, but now thinking back, he realized that the Queen Mother had secretly protected and saved Xiao Lanyuan many times when he was still young and immature.
The Queen Mother was silent for a moment.
She was not going to lie now and didn't want to keep it a secret any longer.
"Your Majesty, I know A Yuan. Although that child looks cold, he is actually very loyal. The Emperor loves him, and he will keep the Emperor's request in mind. He will only protect Zhao State and will not do anything that will harm Zhao State. If you trust him, he will respect you as his brother."
The Queen Mother really thought so, but the Emperor never believed it.
The emperor laughed sarcastically.
"I actually believe him when he says he won't do anything to harm Zhao. But he will harm me! If he wants to seize my throne, Zhao will be his kingdom. Is there any conflict between this and his promise to my father that he would protect the Xiao family's kingdom in Zhao?"
Therefore, he never doubted Xiao Lanyuan's loyalty to Zhao State.
What he wants to protect is the dragon throne under his butt!
When Fu Zhaoning heard this, he said coldly, "A Yuan has no interest in being the emperor."
"You know shit!"
The emperor couldn't help but yell.
"His last name is Xiao, and he is also the emperor's favorite son. How could he not be interested in this position? Do you think I am a three-year-old child? Who would not be interested?"
The emperor firmly believed in his own thoughts. "It's just that his mother's background is unknown, and she is also a hypocritical and silly woman. I heard that she once told my father that true love can only have two people. If there are more people between a husband and wife, it is not love anymore."
"Hahaha, how ridiculous. A woman like that is destined to be unfit to be the heir of a country. Her mind is smaller than the eye of a needle, and she is childish and ridiculous. Even though Xiao Lanyuan has a mother like her, he is destined not to be able to sit on the throne. He has no support from his mother's clan, so what right do he have to compete with me?"
The Queen Mother moved her mouth.
Fu Zhaoning could see that she was about to hold back and refute the emperor.
Why is Xiao Lanyuan's mother's origin unknown?
She is the real Crown Princess of Dongqing!
"The Queen Mother."
Fu Zhaoning grabbed her hand to stop her from speaking.
