Chapter 582: The dispute between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, who should be obeyed?
It can be seen that Ji Chuhe also put a lot of effort into running the royal business.
"Chao Sihai, do you think she has noticed something? At first, she wanted to go to the Queen's Palace to report to me, but now, she doesn't even want to enter the palace."
"Your Majesty, even if this is what you think, doesn't this further prove that the Crown Prince's wife is unique and precious?" He whispered to Chao Sihai.
This sentence made the emperor very happy.
"You're right! That's it!"
He raised a smile at Sihai's lips, lowered his head respectfully, and stopped talking.
……
The queen looked at the banknotes sent to her with a dim look in her eyes.
Although it was not much, Ji Chuhe did fulfill his promise.
After the profits of the royal shop were split 50-50 with the emperor, Ji Chuhe's share was completely placed in front of her.
"Mother." The third prince walked in from outside.
The Queen put the banknote aside.
The Third Prince noticed the banknotes at a glance, "Mother, where did this money come from?"
"Ji Chuhe sent someone to deliver it."
"Last time she was talking about the profits of the royal shop? Mother, we can't accept this money! If father finds out, he will definitely suspect that we have ulterior motives!"
"You still don't know your father well enough. Do you think your father won't doubt us now? Money is a good thing. It can do a lot of things for you. Even if your father knew, this was Ji Chuhe's voluntary gift to us. Ji Chuhe is also suspected of trying to win over the prince. What can your father do to Ji Chuhe?"
The third prince felt that these words were a bit off, but he did not think about the dirty details.
"Yes, that woman Ji Chuhe would not do such a stupid thing. If she is not afraid, then we are not afraid either." The third prince added.
The queen looked up at the third prince, and the words she wanted to say came to her lips, but she held them back.
Some things need not be said.
Some words are useless even if they are said.
There are some things that the Third Prince has to realize and experience on his own.
Fortunately, the only thing that comforted her was that the third prince had always wanted to be the crown prince. All that she had plotted and the blood on her hands were worth it.
"Mother, why did you call me here today?"
"The matter of rewarding the three armies has been decided. Your Majesty suspects that the Emperor will take advantage of the opportunity of the national celebration of the victory of the war to summon Prince Huaiyang and his wife to congratulate him. That time will be the end of Prince Huaiyang's Mansion! During this period of time, you must not leave the palace at will. You must pay attention to your own safety." The Queen solemnly instructed.
The third prince looked embarrassed and did not dare to tell the truth.
"Don't you listen to your mother's words?" the queen asked sternly.
"I obey your command." The third prince responded immediately.
When the third prince returned to his bedroom, he saw Qin Yumo standing outside the palace gate waiting for him.
"Yumo, why don't you wait in the house? The weather is still so cold. What if you catch a cold? You are still pregnant. You must take care of yourself." The third prince immediately stepped forward and held Qin Yumo's hand.
Qin Yumo held the Third Prince's hand in hers. "I am also worried about Your Highness. What did Your Highness talk about with the Queen Mother just now?"
When this matter was mentioned, the smile on the Third Prince's face froze.
He had already promised Qin Yumo that he would accompany her to the temple to pray for the baby in her belly tomorrow. Now, the queen mother would not let him leave the palace, and he had agreed to her request. Now, he was in a dilemma.
"Yumo, let's go inside and talk."
Qin Yumo was feeling a little down, and always felt that her prayers would not go smoothly.
This pregnancy was so thrilling that she has not dared to announce it until now.
The Queen Mother killed so many people in the palace to avenge Concubine Cao and the unborn prince. This incident really scared her.
If she became pregnant at this critical juncture, she would definitely become a thorn in the Queen Mother's side.
She was a concubine of the crown prince, and it would be very easy for the queen mother to deal with her. She had no way to defend herself.
If the queen also cared about her pregnancy, perhaps they could work together to save her child. However, the queen was also under house arrest and might not care about the baby in her belly.
It was because she was too worried that she wanted to pray for the child, hoping that her child would be born safely. In addition, she also prayed that it would be a boy.
The two returned to the house, and the Third Prince gave a heartfelt advice: "Yumo, didn't you say that your pregnancy seems a little unstable recently? Otherwise, we should stay in the palace and not go out to pray for blessings, so as to avoid the bumpy mountain road and hurt you and the baby in your belly again."
"Your Highness, didn't we agree that after the morning court tomorrow you would accompany me out of the palace to pray for our child?" Qin Yumo suddenly felt aggrieved and tears came.
"Why are you crying for no reason?" The third prince quickly raised his hand to wipe her tears.
"What do you mean by for no reason? Your Highness, tell me, we have already agreed, why don't you go? If it is a legitimate reason, I will never make trouble without reason."
"My mother said that the reward for the three armies has been decided. My father is likely to ask the Huaiyang prince and his wife to come to the imperial capital to celebrate the victory of the war and use this opportunity to get rid of the Huaiyang prince. My mother is worried about my safety, so she doesn't agree to let me leave the palace at will."
"Your Majesty's worries are not without reason, but hasn't the Emperor summoned Prince Huaiyang to the palace yet? Since there is no decree, the imperial capital is peaceful. Besides, we will go there tomorrow, and two hours will be enough for a round trip. As long as we pray for our child and ask for a peace amulet, we will never leave the palace again."
The third prince was in a dilemma.
He also wanted to hear what the queen said.
What Qin Yumo said was reasonable and he couldn't refuse.
Qin Yumo didn't know what was going on at the moment. It was as if her emotions were out of her control. She just wanted to go and had to go.
It seemed as if he was intentionally confronting the Queen.
She just kept crying.
Finally, the Third Prince hugged her in his arms with a distressed look on his face. "Okay, stop crying. I'll listen to you. Tomorrow morning, I'll arrange for you to leave the palace first. Then, after the morning court session, I'll meet up with you immediately. Let's go early and come back early."
Qin Yumo then smiled and nodded.
In order to prevent the queen from knowing, the third prince deliberately reduced the number of guards who accompanied them to protect them.
As soon as the morning court was over, he left the palace immediately.
What he didn't know was that as soon as he left the palace, the Fourth Prince's men would target them.
The temple for praying is on a mountain about five miles outside the south city, and carriages can go directly up.
This temple is very effective and has a lot of worshippers. The road from the imperial capital to the temple is always crowded with people coming and going.
Logically speaking, there would be no chance to assassinate the third prince.
However, this time, the Fourth Prince spent a huge amount of money.
All those mobilized were death warriors.
If you don’t succeed, you will succeed!
We must get rid of the third prince at all costs!
