The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 2

Stepping into the palace gate, the eunuchs and maids who were sweeping the floor and making flowers inside bowed down to him one after another.

"Meet Your Highness the Ninth Prince!"

Among them, the younger and more courageous court ladies quietly raised their heads to look at Zhao Yanxun, this handsome Prince His Royal Highness is extremely lethal to the Huaichun girls.

Zhao Yanxun is still expressionless, at this moment his mind is not outside at all, but on Concubine Duan in the palace.

Walking to the center of the garden, Zhao Yanxun stopped according to the etiquette in his memory, waiting for Concubine Duan to be summoned.

Because concubine Duan was deeply favored by the emperor, the regulations of Xianfu Palace were greatly improved. Just looking at the appearance, it was much more refined than other palaces, and the clothes of the maids and eunuchs were all as if they were brand new.

After a while, a female officer came out from the gate of the main hall, bowed to Zhao Yanxun, and then said, "Your Majesty, please enter the hall!"

Zhao Yanxun took a step and slowly walked up the steps outside the main hall of Xianfu Palace.

Approaching the main hall, there is a soft couch in front, and a few chairs on each side, but Concubine Duan is not here.

Zhao Yanxun looked around, walked to the center of the main hall and turned to the left, and he saw Concubine Duan sitting at the round table in the side hall.

There was an exquisite meal on the table, obviously Concubine Duan was having breakfast.

Concubine Duan is over forty years old, but because of proper maintenance, she looks only in her thirties on the outside, and her appearance is still charming and charming.

"Xun'er is here, come quickly!" Concubine Duan beckoned, with a smile on her face.

Walking into the side hall, Zhao Yanxun obediently knelt down on the ground according to the shape in his memory, and paid homage: "My son pays respects to my mother and concubine!"

"Xun'er get up quickly, your body has just recovered, don't be tired anymore!"

While Concubine Duan was speaking, the nurse who was serving at the side stepped forward and carefully helped Zhao Yanxun who was on the ground up.

Because of the influence of the memory of his predecessor, Zhao Yanxun has a kind of intimacy from the bottom of his heart for the Concubine Duan who loves his son.

So after he got up, he said to Concubine Duan: "Thank you, Concubine Mu!"

Under the signal of Concubine Duan, Zhao Yanxun walked to the table, and immediately a palace lady helped to carry the pier.

After taking off the black gauze wing crown on his head, a court lady immediately stepped forward to take it, and then carefully placed it on a small table beside him.

"The emperor hasn't eaten yet, so he ate here. You are coming today, these are all your favorite food!" Concubine Duan said with a warm smile.

Although Concubine Duan seems to be just a kind mother at the moment, Zhao Yanxun knows that this concubine has deep thoughts and is famous in the harem.

After taking her seat, Concubine Duan asked about Zhao Yanxun's physical condition while picking up vegetables for her son.

While eating, Zhao Yanxun carefully answered Concubine Duan's questions.

To be honest, Concubine Duan felt some changes in Zhao Yanxun, but she only regarded it as a sequela of recovering from a serious illness.

When the mother and son were about to eat, Concubine Duan glanced at the nurse next to her, who understood and waved everyone in the room to leave.

Seeing this situation, Zhao Yanxun felt puzzled, guessing that Concubine Duan must have something important to say.

When only the mother and child were left in the room, Concubine Duan picked up the spoon and poured it into the bowl herself, the smile on her face gradually disappeared.

"Xun'er, there is something... Mother wants to tell you in advance, so you can prepare yourself!"

After saying this, Concubine Duan handed the emerald bowl containing fresh soup to Zhao Yanxun, who got up and took it respectfully.

"Mother and concubine please show me!" Zhao Yanxun answered as he remembered.

"Through these years, your royal father intends to make you the crown prince, but now... I'm afraid it's all in vain!"

"Although I'm in the harem, I've also heard some things about the previous dynasty. Now your father's desk is full of papers that ask you to give you the title of king and let you immediately become a vassal!"

Hearing these words, Zhao Yanxun was overjoyed, and immediately asked: "Ji Fan's meaning... is to let his son leave the capital to become a prince?"

Seeing Zhao Yanxun ask this question, Concubine Duan was surprised. Shouldn't her son be angry for missing the crown prince?

How could Concubine Duan know that what Zhao Yanxun wanted was to leave the capital, after all, there were too many rules and regulations in this place.

And if he becomes a prince in another place, then the constraints will undoubtedly be much less, and it will also allow Zhao Yanxun to make more preparations for the end of the world.

To him, no kingship, wealth or honor is as important as the coming of the last days, which will kill people.

"Xun'er, aren't you disappointed?" Concubine Duan said worriedly, she was afraid that her son would be overwhelmed.

disappointment?Why be disappointed?Zhao Yanxun thought about this question for a few seconds before he understood what Concubine Duan meant.

"Mother and concubine... In order to fight for the crown prince, let the father and mother concubine criticize the foreign ministers, and the son is suffering a lot!"

Such words established Zhao Yanxun's image as a filial son, so that tears appeared in Concubine Duan's eyes.

Said that Zhao Yanxun put down the emerald bowl in his hand, and said with firm eyes: "Simply according to the wishes of those ministers, it is good for the son to become a rich prince, so that the father, mother and concubine don't have to worry about it every day!"

To be moved is to be moved, but the shock in Concubine Duan's heart at this moment is also real.

Concubine Duan just wanted Zhao Yanxun to be mentally prepared to accept failure. She really didn't expect that after her son experienced a serious illness, she wanted to give up immediately.

How could this be possible? Concubine Duan still wanted to be the Queen Mother in the future. How could she just give up if she gave up, and the emperor would not allow her to give up directly.

"That... Xun'er, don't worry too much, this matter hasn't come to a final conclusion yet, what if it does happen!" Concubine Duan laughed.

Zhao Yanxun had no choice but to show an embarrassed smile, and then picked up the emerald green bowl to taste the soup.

At this moment, the mother and son have different thoughts, and this breakfast should end here.

"Okay, you stay in the bedroom these few days, there is news that the concubine mother will call you again!" Concubine Duan said while holding her forehead, she seemed a little tired at the moment, the matter of seizing the concubine was exhausting.

Zhao Yanxun learned from his memory that Concubine Duan had given birth to four princes before, and she also competed with the eldest son Zhao Yanjun for the crown prince.

It's just that his fourth brother died of an illness when he was eight years old, otherwise there would be nothing wrong with Zhao Yanxun.

The empress has no children, and the one sitting on the crown prince's throne is none other than the eldest son Zhao Yanjun, the prince born to a court lady.

At this moment Concubine Duan already wanted to see off the guests, so Zhao Yanxun could only get up, and after respectfully saluting, she slowly exited the side hall, and then walked out of the main hall of Xianfu Palace.

"Congratulations, Your Highness!"

When the sound of the maids seeing him off came from outside the hall, the nanny who had just left walked up to Concubine Duan alone.

"My lady..."

"Lingsu... After my son experienced a serious illness, his thoughts have become beyond my understanding!" Concubine Duan said helplessly.

The nanny, known as Lingsu, is Concubine Duan's absolute confidant and has done a lot of dirty work for her.

"Your Majesty... Maybe it's this serious illness that scares His Highness!" Lingsu said in a cautious tone.

Hearing these words, Concubine Duan's tiredness disappeared, and there was a bit of murderous look in her eyes.

"How's the investigation? Who did it? My son got sick for no reason?"

"The servants searched carefully, and although they couldn't find conclusive evidence, they had something to do with the queen!"

Concubine Duan narrowed her eyelids slightly, and her expression became distorted at the moment: "She...this bitch!"

Sensing Concubine Duan's overwhelming hatred, Lingsu lowered her head and did not dare to intervene. She knew the grievances between the master and the queen very clearly, and the two were indeed sworn enemies.
