At this time, the Crown Princess came to the Crown Prince's bedroom again, and saw him kneeling on the ground begging bitterly, asking the Crown Prince to save his child. She knelt and walked to the side of the Crown Prince, tightly grasping his long sleeves.
The prince stood in front of the window, looking at the bright sunlight outside, the sadness in his eyes could not be concealed. He felt very powerless and even irritable.
"Wanjun, it's not that I don't want to save our children, but the Queen deliberately delayed time and didn't let us know that the children were bitten by snakes. Now there is no hope. Just a quarter of an hour ago, news came from the palace that our three children have died."
The prince pulled the sleeve out of the princess's hand, turned around and squatted, holding her shoulders tightly.
"Did you hear that? Our child is gone."
The prince's originally gentle face now became hideous and terrifying. Who wouldn't be sad if the child he held in his hands was killed, especially since he loved his own legitimate child very much.
After hearing what the Crown Prince said, and knowing that her child was gone, the Crown Princess instantly lost her temper, and tears rolled down her face.
Even though the prince grabbed her shoulders, she still didn't come to her senses and didn't want to accept this reality.
It has been ten years since she married into the Eastern Palace from the Prime Minister's Mansion. She and the Crown Prince have a harmonious relationship and have raised three children. She even pushed the girls from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion to be the Crown Prince's concubines, and no one dared to fight with her in the Eastern Palace.
But how could this happen? The children had always been well protected by the Crown Prince. Just yesterday, after the Crown Prince went to court, the Queen suddenly came to the mansion and took the three children away. She was unable to stop them, and when the Crown Prince returned, it was too late.
"It's my fault, it's my fault. I shouldn't have let the Queen take the child away. But she used the Emperor's order to pressure me. I had no choice but to let her take the child away. How could he die? How could our child die?"
The pain in her shoulder brought her back to her senses. She clutched the prince's robe tightly with both hands. She couldn't believe it. How could her child die in just one night? The child who was so lively and energetic yesterday, still calling for his mother!
"Did I ever say that if the Queen wanted to take the child away, you could have delayed her until I returned. I would definitely not have let her take the child away. How could you be so weak as to let her take the child away?"
"I've told you all along that you must not let the child leave the Eastern Palace. Why didn't you listen to me? Why did you have to wait until now? Now you come to tell me that you regret it, but it's too late for you to regret it. It's too late for me to tell you now."
The Crown Prince pushed the Crown Princess aside, stood up, left the bedroom and went to the study in front.
The Crown Princess looked at the empty palace with tears streaming down her face. She couldn't stop her tears from flowing.
She naturally remembered that the prince had told her a few days ago that all the children in the East Palace must not enter the palace, and asked her to take good care of her children. Even if the queen came in person, she could not take the children away. However, because the queen had the emperor's decree, she let the queen's people take the children away. She regretted it now, really regretted it. She had thought that no matter how unreliable the emperor was, he would not abuse his own grandson and granddaughter.
Because of this thoughtless thought, her three children died.
After the prince came to the study, he looked silent and sad. There was no one else in the study. He sat quietly for a while, and finally couldn't hold back the tears in his eyes and flowed down. How could he not love his own child?
Those three children were born and raised in his expectation. He was about to transfer these children, so how did they get discovered?
Why? Why couldn't his own father, the current emperor, tolerate him so much? He actually teamed up with the queen to harm his own grandson.
There were only four children in the East Palace, and now his three legitimate children were all killed. He really hated it, really hated it. In the end, the queen was punished to be confined to the palace for three months for failing to take good care of them, and then there was no punishment.
The emperor felt a little bit reluctant, so he gave a lot of rewards to the Eastern Palace. At the same time, he secretly ordered people to investigate where the child of the prince's concubine Zhang had gone. If they found out, there was no need to reply, but to execute him directly.
Zhang, the concubine of the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace, lived in Yimei Cottage. She watched the entire Eastern Palace in mourning. She could hear the Crown Princess's crying even from this corner. Zhang Qianqian looked at the mourning outside with a sneer. Liu Wanjun, that fool, attacked women like them in the Eastern Palace all day long, but couldn't even protect his own child. He really had wasted the Crown Prince's trust.
Zhang Qianqian was born as the second daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. She was originally eligible for the position of Crown Princess. She was in love with a young general and they were childhood sweethearts. She was going to marry the young general after the selection, but she was framed by Liu Wanjun and her inner clothes were seen by the Crown Prince when she was changing clothes in Prince Kang's Mansion.
That bitch Liu Wanjun actually brought a lot of ladies to catch him and the prince committing adultery. It was simply unbelievable. The emperor actually issued an edict, allowing him to be carried into the East Palace through the side door in a sedan chair.
This plot was too obvious. How could she not know that it was the plot of Liu Wanjun and the one in the palace? Zhang Qianqian had already accepted her fate, but that little bitch Liu Wanjun actually instigated the prince to kill the young general. Naturally, she hated it with gnashing teeth, but her own family was suddenly wronged, and her grandfather asked her to endure it and take good care of her son, as they would take care of everything.
Zhang Qianqian finally swallowed her anger. She knew very well what was happening outside these days and had been living in her own small garden. The secret guards found out that the prince was transferring his property, so Zhang Qianqian also urgently transferred her property and son. She didn't dare to send her son directly to his grandfather, so she could only walk through the mountains to Qiong Island.
