Chapter 231: Incompatible
In Shengjing City, rumors about the crown prince's long-term illness became more and more exaggerated.
Some people believed that the prince had shortened his lifespan by praying for rain, which led to his illness.
There is no free lunch in the world. Even if you are a prince, you must pay a price if you want rain.
Some people believed that the prince was cursed, which was why he became seriously ill, and even the imperial doctors could not figure out the cause.
There were also some people with great powers who learned that the prince suddenly fainted while attending a banquet for beauties.
What is the Banquet of Flowers?
Anyone who knows a little bit about the subject knows that it is a large-scale blind date event for the upper class.
The prince went to attend the banquet for beauties, most likely to choose a princess.
As a result, the Crown Princess was not chosen, and the Crown Prince fainted in public. What does this mean?
This shows that the prince and those noble ladies are not compatible!
Most people these days are superstitious. Whenever they want to do something important, they have to calculate the time and match the horoscope first. If the horoscopes don't match, the thing cannot be done for sure.
The Crown Prince is a daughter of gold and the heir to the throne of the Great Sheng Dynasty. His Crown Princess is the future Queen. If he marries a woman who is incompatible with him, it will definitely bring disaster.
Perhaps the prince's sudden fainting was a warning from God.
These rumors spread from one person to another, and inevitably reached the palace, where even the emperor and empress heard about them.
Queen Qin was in the deep palace and had no influence on what was happening outside the palace.
She specially summoned Madam Qin to find out the details of the matter.
Madam Qin usually smiles when she sees people, but today she didn't smile, which was unusual. She frowned and said.
"These rumors came out half a month ago, but not many people talked about it at that time. We didn't take it seriously, thinking that no one would talk about it after a while. Who knew that these rumors would spread more and more."
Queen Qin said in a deep voice: "Someone must not want the Crown Prince to marry into the Qin family, so they deliberately fabricated these rumors. Didn't you send someone to investigate?"
"Of course we sent people to investigate. Our people followed the clues all the way and finally found the Great Prince's Mansion. It is said that these rumors first spread from the Great Prince's Mansion."
Queen Qin pondered and said, "Given the eldest prince's impulsive personality, it's not surprising that he would do such a thing, but I still think that things are not that simple. It is very likely that someone fabricated these rumors under the guise of the eldest prince."
Madam Qin: "The master thinks so too, but the clues are cut off in the Grand Prince's mansion. If we want to investigate further, we will definitely alert the Grand Prince."
Although the eldest prince is not very smart, he is a prince after all. Now that he has taken over the Ministry of Works, he is a prince with real power. It is not easy to investigate him.
Queen Qin was very calm: "Go back and tell my brother that the Qin family should stop interfering in this matter. Someone else will investigate this matter for us. We just need to watch quietly."
Mrs. Qin nodded and agreed.
After the morning court session ended the next day, the emperor deliberately kept the eldest prince Luo Yechen.
The emperor knew his eldest son's temper, so he didn't beat around the bush and asked directly.
"Did you spread those rumors about the prince?"
Luo Yechen flatly denied: "No."
The emperor stared at him and said, "Since I can ask you this in person, it means that I am sure that you are involved in this matter. I am asking you now to give you a chance to confess and be lenient. If you are stubborn and refuse to say anything, then it will be considered that I did not ask anything. The responsibility for this matter will be borne by you alone."

The author's mumblings:
Every time when it is written that the male protagonist is moved but the female protagonist is not, there will be readers who pop up to complain that the female protagonist is dull and conscienceless and not worthy of the male protagonist, blah blah.
I admit that Xixi is indeed slow in emotions, but in the harem, isn't it good to be a little slow? This way you can better protect yourself from being hurt.
As for the prince, he is still young and his position is not stable. If he were to get together with Xixi now, it would not be a good thing for either him or Xixi.
Please give the prince more time to develop his career. When he has the ability to protect himself and his loved ones, he can fall in love happily.
Oh, as an old mother, I am really worried about them!
Luo Yechen: Why am I always the one who takes the blame? ! =皿=
……
Please give me some votes!
