After crossing, I was miserable.

Chapter 196 Queen

In order to show her concern and let the emperor see her attitude, the queen asked about the well-being of the unpopular Fourth Prince in her eyes, and she asked in a hypocritical manner.

Chu Yan did not show his emotion, but still answered respectfully:

"Everything is subject to the arrangements and orders of Her Majesty the Queen."

There was no joy or sadness on his face, just a cold and indifferent expression.

The Queen wanted to see something from the Fourth Prince's face.

According to her intelligence, the Fourth Prince was not close to the Emperor, so she didn't know why the Emperor suddenly paid attention to him.

Could it be that he has already contacted the emperor in a place that I can't see?

She knew very well that the Fourth Prince's biological mother was of extraordinary status and was a person of extraordinary significance and importance to His Majesty.

This woman may be extremely beautiful, or possess extraordinary intelligence; perhaps she is favored by the emperor, or is highly respected because of her powerful background...

In any case, what is certain is that this woman must occupy an important position in the emperor's heart, and has intricate connections and entanglements with the emperor.

All this makes people wonder, what kind of woman can move the Holy Heart so much?

However, when the child was sent back, the emperor was furious and placed the child in the care of a concubine in the cold palace to be raised and never took care of him again.

The concubine in the cold palace wanted to regain favor through this child.

The emperor did pay more attention to her, but it was just a little more attention, nothing else.

For a moment, I couldn't figure out the emperor's true thoughts.

Just when everyone was about to forget that Leng Gongzhong had a prince, the emperor specially approved him to train on the battlefield.

However, during this period of time, he did not receive any care or attention. He seemed to be abandoned and left to fend for himself.

It is just like those soldiers who died on the battlefield without anyone caring about their life or death. This kind of indifference and disregard is chilling.

However, what was unexpected was that the prince who was banished to the cold palace miraculously survived!

What is even more unexpected is that he not only came back alive, but also made great military achievements many times!

What on earth was going on? Everyone was confused, but they couldn't help but be full of curiosity and expectations about this prince.

In that cold and ruthless palace, it was already difficult for an unpopular and neglected prince to survive, let alone achieve such brilliant achievements.

The queen quietly gazed at the fourth prince who was growing taller and taller, and a feeling of emotion welled up in her heart.

His handsome face had clear contours, and his eyebrows revealed an innate majesty that clearly surpassed that of other princes. The queen wondered to herself whether the emperor had also noticed the unique charm exuded by the fourth prince.

Perhaps it was because of this that the emperor turned his attention to him again. After all, in the palace, which was full of power struggles, a prince with outstanding talents and majesty would undoubtedly be more likely to attract the emperor's attention.

However, there was still a glimmer of doubt in the queen's heart: Was this just a coincidence, or did the emperor do it on purpose?

Faced with such a complicated situation, the queen decided to remain vigilant and observe closely. She knew that the situation in the palace was unpredictable and any slight change could cause an uproar.

As the mistress of the harem, she must always keep a clear head to deal with various possible situations.

At the same time, the queen also realized that she needed to know more about the true thoughts and abilities of the fourth prince. Only through in-depth contact and observation can she better grasp the situation and make wise decisions for the future of herself and her sons.

Then the Queen showed a kind smile:

"If the Fourth Prince has someone he likes, you can tell me about it, and I can also make a good story about it.

You don't know that the Emperor is very worried about your marriage and has personally instructed me to choose carefully for you.

Alas, it stands to reason that you should have been chosen a concubine earlier, but you have been on the battlefield before, and you don't know much about the situation in the capital, and you have not met many girls of the right age.

Well, I'll hold a few more banquets so you can learn more about it."

"Yes, thank you, Queen."

In fact, neither of them had much to say to each other, but they had to pretend to be close friends on the surface, which was really torturous.

From beginning to end, Chu Yan had no expression. The Queen did not like the disgusting face and felt that the temperature around her dropped by several degrees.

So the queen asked a few questions and let Chu Yan leave.

So, in the following days, the Queen began to quietly pay attention to the Fourth Prince's every move...

Chu Yan had no interest in the affairs of the palace, and did not care much about the various informants planted there.

As long as they don't affect him, he will let them go and support them.

But he really didn't have any news worth their while.

After all, the emperor might not even remember an unpopular prince who came out of the cold palace, so who would care?

It’s just that it’s the habit of people in the palace to place their own people in each palace.

He did not have much thought about the dragon throne that symbolized supreme power and glory.

But it is undeniable that since he walked out of the forgotten place of the cold palace,

The situation then changed subtly - after all, there was one more person who might participate in the fight for the throne.

Regardless of whether they are willing to be involved in this brutal struggle, this fact itself is enough to make everyone wary and fearful.

The palace is full of twists and turns, and no one can predict where the future will lead...

Even if he had no intention of becoming emperor, he would still be drawn into this vortex.

When the prince reaches adulthood, he will be granted his own mansion, but his mansion is like an iron wall. Even though it seems that there are not many people there, most people are hiding in the dark.

Of course, he also has a residence in the palace, but when there is nothing to do, he prefers to stay outside.

He was very surprised to hear the Queen Mother say that his "father" would personally take care of his marriage.

He actually knew everything about his life story. When he came back, he could already remember everything.

It's just that due to injuries and psychological problems, he lost some of his memory for a period of time.

It was because of the loss of these memories that the emperor announced to the outside world that he was his child, and it was probably in order to protect him at the time that he was placed in the cold palace to be educated.

This vague memory continued until he went to the battlefield, and after he was injured on the battlefield, he slowly remembered it.

He also knew that his "father" was actually his uncle, and his mother was Princess Yihe, who had married into the Qin Dynasty. His biological father was the old emperor of Qin, and he had a younger brother.

I have never given up looking for my brother over the years.

He has gradually accumulated his own money and connections,

He didn't have too many requests. He just hoped that after finding his brother, he could find a remote fiefdom, stay away from the capital, and live a life in paradise.

However, as a prince, he was destined to have an extraordinary life.

He always thought that his uncle did not go to find his brother in order to protect himself.

His usual indifference to himself is also a way of protecting himself.

But after the few contacts he had, he felt that he was a cold emperor.

He doesn't care about any of this at all. He doesn't care about anyone except himself.

Even his own mother's initiative to marry a foreign prince was designed by him in order to stabilize the country.

When he knew that his own sister was asking him for help, he chose to remain indifferent.

Perhaps he did not expect that Princess Yihe had her own group of secret guards in the palace. It was with the protection of these secret guards that he was able to return to the palace safely. Otherwise, no one would know where he would end up.

I don't think his indifference over the years is a protection, maybe he just doesn't want to see him.

When you see him, you will think of your own sister, and you will think of your ignorant and incompetent self when you were young.

No one wants to face his or her previous miserable life, even the closest people.

What's more, he was the emperor back then, and nothing was as stable as his throne.
