She would be upset if any of the children were hurt.
"Because we felt guilty for not being able to tell the Crown Prince about his true identity, we gave him the position of Crown Prince as compensation."
Feeling guilty for depriving the second and third children of their right to compete fairly, they decided to give their parents more love and attention.
The emperor said in a deep voice, "As parents, we think about fairness, but there is no fairness in this world, especially in the royal family."
Perhaps, from the very beginning, the couple was simply naive.
The three brothers were completely unaware of their parents' arrangements. Before Xie Tingzhou could even leave the palace, he was stopped by his two younger brothers.
The palace had no shortage of good doctors and medicines. The swelling on their faces had subsided, but the bruises were still there. They should have stayed in their residence to maintain the dignity of princes.
But Prince Ning couldn't swallow his anger any longer, so he urged Prince Yun to come out, as they needed to keep an eye on Xie Tingzhou.
I want to find the Crown Prince quickly and beat him into a pig's head too.
His thoughts were written all over his face. Xie Tingzhou smiled slightly and said, "I just heard from Her Majesty the Empress about the two princes. I feel truly ashamed."
Upon hearing this, Prince Ning exclaimed, "So it really was you who did this..."
Before he could finish speaking, Xie Tingzhou continued, "If I had known that Your Highnesses would be beaten up at night, I should have shown mercy during the day."
That way, the two princes wouldn't have been so exhausted and defenseless, beaten like this.
Prince Ning was furious and reached out to pull off Xie Tingzhou's mask.
The Cloud King stopped them, his eyes conveying a message: "You'll alert the enemy if you do this."
Prince Ning had no choice but to silently withdraw his hand and ask Xie Tingzhou, "Where are you going?"
Xie Tingzhou pretended not to see the tension between the two and said, "The Grand Princess is missing. Her Majesty has ordered me to go find her."
Prince Ning was very attached to the Empress. Even after being beaten into a pulp, he would still go to the palace every day to pay his respects to her. He knew about the old princess's disappearance.
He has no secrets from King Yun; what he knows is the same as what King Yun knows.
Just as the two brothers were wondering where to find an excuse to follow Xie Tingzhou, Prince Ning's eyes lit up. "It is my responsibility to share the burdens of Father and Mother. We will help you find one."
Prince Ning thought this reason was excellent and that he was very clever. He secretly gave himself a thumbs up to Prince Chaoyun behind his back.
But when he arrived at Chunfeng Tower with Xie Tingzhou, he was completely dumbfounded.
"You came to a brothel to find the old princess? She's so old, surely she's not stolen and sold to a brothel yet?"
Xie Tingzhou's gaze fell on a man in red. He put his arm around the two men's shoulders and led them inside. "Your humble servant has discovered that this brothel is owned by the Grand Princess..."
He didn't need to say the rest; the Prince of Yun took over, saying, "If the old princess's people entered the palace and took her away, she might be hiding in this building."
Xie Tingzhou smiled but remained silent.
The old princess is still hungry at his grocery store. Once he finds out what happened, he will send her back to the palace.
He didn't come here today for the old princess.
Prince Ning, unaware that he was being used, also saw the man in red and excitedly exclaimed, "Little Imperial Uncle!"
