During these five years, Liu Wei was no longer Consort De, but was promoted to Noble Consort De, becoming the most favored concubine in the harem, unmatched by anyone else.
Some even say that Liu Wei is about to be promoted to Imperial Noble Consort, a rank second only to the Empress.
During these five years, Liu Wei also gave birth to a son, who is now 2 years old.
Everyone watched as Liu Wei's status rose higher and higher, and she became more and more favored, and they sighed that Qin Jue was truly lucky.
While her biological mother was alive, she was the most favored concubine in the palace; after her biological mother died, her adoptive mother began to enjoy the same favor.
What outsiders don't know is that Qin Jue is indeed registered under Liu Wei's name and is Liu Wei's son, but he doesn't live in the Feather Palace. Instead, Liu Wei has thrown him into the Cold Palace. He sleeps in the Cold Palace at night, and during the day, he must go to the Feather Palace whenever Liu Wei summons him.
In this palace, all the palace servants acted as if they had received orders, and could bully Qin Jue at will.
It could be said that Qin Jue's status in the palace was lower than that of a dog.
In the Cold Palace
A eunuch held a whip and lashed Qin Jue, saying smugly as he did so, "You think you're some high and mighty fourth prince? You're nothing but a dog."
It's unclear how many more times the eunuch lashed him, but he put the whip away and looked at Qin Jue, who stood motionless, his clothes torn and blood flowing from his skin. The eunuch spoke with a mixture of excitement and disgust.
"You're such a bastard. One day I'll beat you so badly you'll be begging for mercy."
At this moment, a young eunuch walked up to the eunuch holding the whip and took the whip.
"Eunuch Liu, why are you getting so angry with this brat?"
"What if this brat upsets your precious health?"
Hearing what the eunuch beside him said, Liu Si visibly cheered up. He handed the whip to the eunuch, then snorted and turned away.
"snort"
Liu Si took the tray from a palace maid and threw it directly to the ground at Qin Jue's feet.
"You're getting a good deal on these clothes, you little rascal!"
"If it weren't for the benevolence of Consort De, would you, you little bastard, have such fine clothes to wear? Dream on!!!"
"I'm telling you, this afternoon you'll wear this outfit and go with Consort De to offer incense outside the palace."
After saying this, Liu Si led his men away from the Cold Palace.
As Liu Si walked, he felt a chill on his neck, but he ignored it and continued walking forward.
"Oh"
Standing behind, Qin Jue glanced down at the clothes lying on the ground and chuckled, then stared menacingly at Liu Si's departing figure.
A while after Liu Si had completely left the Cold Palace, Qin Jue looked at the clothes on the ground and gave a self-deprecating smile. He bent down to pick up the clothes that Liu Si had thrown on the ground.
Just as Qin Jue's hand was about to pick up the clothes, another pair of hands, even faster than Qin Jue's, picked up the clothes and the tray.
Qin Jue straightened up and looked at the person standing in front of him. He saw that the person in front of him had a face that was not much different from his own and was wearing clothes that were a little faded from washing.
Qin Zhong quickly picked up the clothes, dusted them off, put them back on the tray, and then looked at Qin Jue.
"elder brother"
"What are you doing here? Didn't I tell you not to come looking for me?"
Upon hearing Qin Jue's cold words, Qin Zhu took another step towards Qin Jue.
The clothes in his arms were snatched away by Qin Jue.
"Brother, I came to see you. Can you please not be so cold all the time?"
"I'm still your brother, your own brother from the same mother."
Qin Zhong saw Qin Jue turn and leave, and quickly followed.
"I don't need you to come see me, nor do I need my younger brother, and our mothers are different."
After saying that, Qin Jue went straight into the room in the Cold Palace and slammed the door shut.
"bump--"
Qin Zheng nearly bumped his nose into the door. He quickly stopped, touched the tip of his pen, and then reached out to knock on the door.
"Brother, you're still injured. Let me come in and help you apply medicine, otherwise how will your wounds heal?"
Qin Jue, with his back to the door, continued speaking in a cold tone from inside.
I don't need your sympathy.
"roll"
Qin Jun, standing at the door, heard Qin Jue's words and lowered his head in disappointment.
After a while, not hearing anything from Qin Jue, she took out a porcelain bottle from her sleeve, placed it at the door where Qin Jue had left it, and walked out of the Cold Palace dejectedly.
Qin Zhen saw Lin Dan at the entrance of the Cold Palace and immediately went forward.
"Mother, what brings you here?"
"He didn't take the medicine you gave him?"
Lin Dan looked at Qin Zhen's dejected face, then slightly turned her head to look into the Cold Palace, and said directly...
"Hmm," Qin Meng replied in a muffled voice.
Lin Dan sighed, "Let's go, Xiao Gong."
Lin Dan and Qin Ming left the Cold Palace
Inside the room, Qin Jue saw only a bed and a thin blanket. He walked expressionlessly to the bed and sat down.
After an unknown amount of time, Qin Jue used a towel to clean his wounds. After finishing, he looked at the clothes that were also on the bed, and finally picked them up.
