Hongyan is her grandson, how could she have the heart to do that to him?
"Master?"
Su Peisheng was a little worried about him. After all, he was the one who personally led people to investigate the contents of the letter, and he knew everything in it.
Although I am not favored by Concubine De, I am a filial son. Even if Concubine De dislikes him, I will still do what a son should do.
It's not that the master is not angry about the fact that Fu Jin attacked Prince Hongyan, but he is just thinking about the grievances that Fu Jin has suffered in the palace since her marriage, so he is just going to keep a record of it.
"Putting aside Fujin's matter for now, Master, have you found out why Mother attacked Li?"
"To answer your question, I have found out a little bit."
"explain."
"Li Gege was given to you by the Empress Defei. She is considered the Empress's person. I have found out that the Empress asked Li Gege to drug the eldest prince, but Li Gege refused."
The veins on Yinzhen's clenched hands were bulging. What a good mother he was. Honghui was her legitimate grandson, but she actually let Li drug Honghui.
Perhaps it was because Li refused this matter that she turned to drugging Hongyu.
Sure enough, the Empress Dowager's worries were not unfounded. When he went to Chengqian Palace and became the Empress Dowager's son, he was no longer the son of Concubine De of Yonghe Palace.
"Spread the contents of this letter. Don't let anyone know it came from me. Send someone to closely monitor Yonghe Palace. I want to know my mother's reaction."
"Yes, I'll do it right away."
After Su Peisheng left, Yinzhen took out a spinning top from the drawer. It was the toy he and his sixth brother played with when they were young.
He remembered that when his sixth brother was still alive, his mother's attitude towards him was not so bad, and she even cared about him a lot. When did his mother's attitude change?
By the way, it seems to have started after my sixth brother died.
He remembered that he was also seriously ill on the day his sixth brother passed away. The Empress Dowager was very worried about him, so she asked all the imperial doctors to go to Chengqian Palace to wait for consultation.
My sixth brother was very ill at the time, but my mother was unwilling to bow to the Empress Dowager, so she held on and wanted to wait for the imperial physician to return to the Imperial Hospital before asking him to see my sixth brother.
Who would have thought that because of this delay, the sixth brother suddenly fell seriously ill. When the Emperor and Empress received the news and rushed to Yonghe Palace, the sixth brother had already passed away.
Empress Dowager Cixi could not accept that her beloved son died due to her negligence, so she took out all her resentment on him and Empress Dowager Cixi.
He was shocked when he heard the news of his sixth brother's death. He ignored the objections of everyone in Chengqian Palace and dragged his sick body to Yonghe Palace.
As a result, my mother was too sad to let me see my sixth brother for the last time. It was only after the emperor asked me to do so that I could see him.
His sixth brother was only six years old at that time, and he felt really heartbroken when he saw him lying soundlessly on the bed.
No one knew that he had actually long since refused to have his mother give him to the Empress Dowager to raise. He was even secretly happy that he had two mothers who loved him.
This was also the reason why he had a good relationship with his sixth brother. However, the fact that his sixth brother died because he was ill and did not receive timely medical treatment was really hard for him to accept, and he fainted in Yonghe Palace at that time.
He remembered how angry the Empress Dowager was when she talked about this after he woke up, because she said that when the Empress Dowager saw him faint, there was no worry on her face, but instead an expression of great joy.
He didn't understand why his mother hated him so much. He was partly responsible for his sixth brother's death, but the majority of the blame lay with his mother.
After the Empress Dowager passed away, he returned to her side. Although she still cared about him in front of outsiders, her attitude towards him in private was extremely bad.
In the past, he had never rebelled against his mother out of consideration for his sixth brother, but now that she wanted to harm his only two sons, he had no choice but to rebel against her.
I don’t know what my mother’s reaction will be next. To be honest, he is looking forward to it.
After arriving at Mu Sili's small courtyard, when he saw her teaching Yuyao and Hongyu with a warm face, tenderness flashed in his eyes.
It's not that he favors her. Just because she refused her mother's request to assassinate Honghui without regard for the consequences, he can forgive all her previous mistakes.
Moreover, during these days of getting along with each other, he found that she was changing every day. She used to be a little spoiled and willful, but now she was gentle and considerate.
"Greetings to the master, why are you here at this time?"
"My daughter/son pays respects to my father."
Mu Sili noticed him the moment he came in, but she was playing games with two children at the time, so she didn't say hello. Unexpectedly, Yinzhen was actually peeking at her and even staring blankly at her.
"I came to see what's going on since I have nothing to do. How is Hongyu?"
"It's okay. He seems to be in good spirits, so I think he has completely recovered from the poison."
"That's good. You...come here. I have something to tell you."
"Okay, Yuyao, take good care of your brother. Mother will be back soon after talking to Ama."
"good."
After the two of them came to the courtyard and sat down, Yinzhen slowly asked the doubts in his heart.
"You are the princess given to me by my mother. Has my mother ever asked you to do anything?"
Mu Sili pretended to be nervous and scared, but then looked relieved, which made Yinzhen stunned. What did this mean?
"Master, I will tell you the truth. I fell in love with you at first sight when I first entered the palace. However, due to my low status, I did not dare to dream of becoming your concubine.
It was not until the news came out that Yonghe Palace was selecting a princess to serve you that I knew the opportunity had come, so I went to great lengths to pass the test of Concubine De, and was then chosen by her to be sent to the prince's residence.
It's just that the Empress has already labeled me as her person. I want to get rid of her, but I'm afraid of causing a rift with you, so I have never mentioned this to you.
Since you asked me today, I might as well tell you. I just discovered something and I need you to go to the lady and check it out with her.
Sister Song was arranged by the Emperor, and I also respect her as Sister, but since Sister Song became pregnant, I have been eyeing the position of concubine.
At that time, there were only two princesses, me and her. She was pregnant and could not serve you, so she wanted to push the servants around her out to consolidate her favor, but I stopped her.
Because of this, Sister Song hated me. She was worried that I would harm the little prince in her belly. Of course, at that time we didn't know that she was pregnant with a princess, so she was very wary of me.
But she was too cautious and did not dare to eat properly. She ate the food of the servants every day. As a result, the eldest princess was weak and sickly after birth and died before she was one month old.
She blamed all of this on me, thinking that I had harmed the eldest princess, so she turned to Concubine De and became her person.
A few days ago, the Empress asked me to give the eldest prince a drug, hoping that he would become ill and die young, but I refused. However, I don’t know if she has summoned Sister Song yet.
