Chapter 283: Jaw-dropping...
Chapter 283: Jaw-dropping...
"Give up so quickly? Don't try to guess anymore? I remember that you have access to a lot of unofficial history. It shouldn't be hard to guess the secrets of the harem, right?"
Ling Chuan had a smile in his eyes. Although he didn't say directly what was going on, the answer was very clear, leaving Xia Mo stunned and his jaw almost dropped to the ground.
"Ouch!"
Damn! What does Brother Chuan mean by this?
Xia Mo blinked, looked at him uncertainly and said, "Are you saying that the Third Prince...has a different identity?"
Is this true? Is it so exciting?!
Ling Chuan nodded, not forgetting to praise him: "Mo'er is really smart, he understands it immediately."
Xia Mo slowly lowered his chin, his eyes twitching slightly. He thought, "You've given me such an obvious hint, if he still can't say anything, then he's really stupid."
However, what kind of European physique does Brother Chuan have? He eavesdropped twice and heard such secret and explosive things!
Xia Mo thought about it and rolled his eyes, starting to look up and down at the man who had put away his smile and returned to a poker face.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Ling Chuan let the young man look at him for a long time before asking.
"I wonder if you were possessed by the purple energy and then awakened your European Emperor physique. Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence? You stumbled upon all the secrets that others have hidden so well."
Xia Mo stared at him with his dark eyes, motionless, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
"Indeed." Ling Chuan curled his lips, and then said seriously: "Since I carried you home, your luck has been getting better and better. Even if I encounter trouble, I can turn it into good fortune."
Wow, he sounds like a koi fish.
A smile flashed across Xia Mo's eyes and she gave the man a look that was one part anger and nine parts sweetness.
"Stop talking nonsense and get back to the topic. What is going on with the third prince? Don't keep us in suspense." Xia Mo urged.
Receiving the young man's glare that was neither angry nor angry, Ling Chuan decided to stop and decisively brought the topic back to where it was going.
"I'll tell you right now... The Third Prince's mother is the daughter of a court official. It's rumored that before she entered the palace for the selection, she seemed to have a crush on someone, but that person was in love with another woman."
Hearing this, Xia Mo couldn't help but exclaim "Oh" inwardly, as if he saw a huge basin of melodrama about to be poured towards him, and thought that he was familiar with this plot.
Glancing at the young man with twinkling eyes, Ling Chuan felt amused. As if he could see through his thoughts, he pointed out, "She is the eldest prince's mother's biological sister."
"Ah ha? I thought she was the eldest prince's mother, but it turns out she's not."
Well, it was a little different from what he thought.
"And then what? They hated each other because of this, and started fighting from outside the palace to inside?" Isn't this too exaggerated?
Ling Chuan shook his head, "Yes and no."
"Oh?" I'd like to hear more details.
"The two families' fathers have always had different political views, and their backgrounds are similar, so they already dislike each other. This love and hatred is just the nutrient that feeds their hatred."
Xia Mo thought for a moment and said, "That's true, but what does this have to do with the identity of the Third Prince? Wait, could he be the child of that man?"
"No."
“…Not again?”
"Yes, that man died a long time ago, before his mother entered the palace. I heard that he died trying to save the eldest prince's mother."
Damn... the person I like likes the sister of the other family, but he died for the sister? What kind of weird thing is this!
Xia Mo didn't know how to describe this amazing development. He could only say that it was strange but reasonable that the two of them were fighting so fiercely.
So, whose child is this third prince? Xia Mo looked at the man and suddenly had an idea. He thought to himself, it can't be a rival family, right?
Ling Chuan stared at him for a moment, and finally mercifully gave him a thunderous answer: "It belongs to the eunuch."
"What?!" Xia Mo exclaimed.
Did he hear it right? Eunuch... isn't that a eunuch? A eunuch... could actually cuckold the emperor? !
"Brother Chuan, you are not kidding me, are you?"
Xia Mo looked at the man, trying to find some flaws on his face.
After all, the eunuchs' thing... isn't it castrated? Can it still be used? ? ?
Besides, the Third Prince’s mother was born into a wealthy family after all, so even if she was looking for someone, she shouldn’t have chosen a eunuch.
Wait, the people that Brother Chuan mentioned just now, including the Crown Prince's mother and the others, couldn't they be...
Xia Mo suddenly realized, "Is it the eldest prince's mother who did this?"
If that's the case, it's really cruel.
"You can say that, but the third prince's mother is not innocent. She reaped what she sowed." Ling Chuan said indifferently.
"..."Xia Mo was speechless.
Sure enough, he thought it was too simple.
"So, the eldest prince's mother also knew about the affair, so why didn't she take the opportunity to eliminate her opponent?"
Ling Chuan: "How do you know she doesn't have it?"
Xia Mo suddenly realized, "Oh, I was thinking about it wrongly."
Both of them wanted to kill each other, and it was impossible for them to give up such a good opportunity. The only explanation was: failure.
So, how did the third prince's mother deal with it? Xia Mo was very curious about this, and his eyes flickered as he looked at the man.
Ling Chuan smiled lightly, "What happens next is no longer a secret..."
At that time, the eldest prince's mother deliberately led several concubines to go with her to the residence of the third prince's mother, saying that they were visiting sisters, but in fact they were bringing a group of people to catch an adulterer.
However, she never expected that before she came to catch the adulterer, the Third Prince's mother had received the news and sent a maid to her bed.
Therefore, when the eldest prince's mother and several others hurriedly arrived, they rushed in without any obstruction and lifted the tightly covered quilt. They saw the naked maid and eunuch lying together, which immediately caused the concubines who were traveling with them to cover their eyes and scream.
Therefore, the Third Prince's mother, who deliberately appeared later, also had amazing acting skills, from being completely confused to being directly stunned by the scenery on the couch.
In the end, the eldest prince's mother not only failed to deal with the third prince's mother, but instead made her feel pitiful and aggrieved. Not only did she win the emperor's heart, but she also enjoyed the emperor's favor because of her son's status.
As for the eunuch and the maidservant, they dared to have sex in the master's bed, which undoubtedly violated the emperor's majesty and they were sentenced to death by the emperor...
"Alas, there is always a mountain higher than the other. The women in the harem are really not easy to mess with." Xia Mo was filled with emotion.
Then he looked at Ling Chuan again, propped up his chin and said, "No, can you hear so much by just squatting at the wall?"
"Of course not." Ling Chuan replied.
"At that time, I only heard a little bit of it before someone discovered it. The rest was the truth that Yingying pieced together after investigating."
"Him?" Xia Mo was stunned. He didn't expect that this matter was discovered by Yingying.
"Yeah." Ling Chuan responded, and added: "When we asked him to frame Li and the others, he had just returned from the capital."
Oh, so it was that time...
Speaking of Yingying, Xia Mo couldn't help but praise him: What a wonderful person.
As for that treacherous "bastard", if he knew that the guy he betrayed his master and followed was actually the son of a eunuch, he would probably be so angry that he would die.
Ah, just thinking about it is so sour!
It was as if he had just witnessed the hilarious scene after that scumbag learned the truth, and Xia Mo couldn't help but laugh out loud.
“Hahahaha, I’m dying of laughter…”
