If An Lingrong was reborn before the draft

After Li was put under house arrest, the third prince bribed the guards of Changchun Palace to go in and visit her.

"Mother, are you okay? I heard that you were confined by the emperor because you made a mistake. What did you do wrong that made the emperor take away your title and confine you?"

For the sake of the Third Prince, the Emperor issued a gag order not to mention the matter anymore. So now no one dares to tell the Third Prince the truth.

"Son, mother is counting on you, you must rescue her!" Li thought simply. The third prince was the emperor's eldest son, and when he ascended the throne, he would definitely appoint her as the empress dowager. Then no one would dare to say anything if he took her out.

"Mother, I will definitely save you." The Third Prince misunderstood. He just thought that Li didn't want to be under house arrest, so she asked him to rescue her.

The third prince went straight to the Queen's Jingren Palace after leaving Changchun Palace. He thought that the mother might still be angry about the punishment by the Emperor's father, so he might as well go and ask the Empress' mother for help. The Empress' mother loved him so much that she would definitely help him.

And so he arrived at Jingren Palace.

In Jingren Palace, the Queen was asking the Fourth Prince about his studies. When she heard that the Third Prince had arrived, she did not rush to call him in. Instead, she asked the Fourth Prince, "You have heard about what happened to Lady Li, right? What do you think about this?"

"Madam, I guess my third brother must have come to you to beg for mercy. He must not know what mistake Empress Li made." The Fourth Prince was extremely smart, so the Empress did not hide these things from him.

He wants to compete for the position of crown prince, so the sooner he accepts the open and secret struggles in the harem, the better.

"Well, do you think the Empress Dowager should plead for her?" The Queen wanted to see what the Fourth Prince thought.

"My Queen Mother, I know that Queen Li is not an unforgivable evil person. She was just instigated by others. However, she herself does not even have the ability to distinguish right from wrong. This is the punishment she deserves. Third brother is also naive."

The Queen looked at the Fourth Prince with disdain and spoke, which shows that the Fourth Prince is indifferent to family affection. But it is not his fault. He was reborn as a palace maid and was abandoned by the Emperor in the Old Summer Palace. The Emperor neglected him and did not care about him, not to mention other concubines and palace maids. This made him experience the warmth and coldness of human feelings and the fickleness of the world too early. I just don't know if it is good or bad for him to ascend to the throne with this kind of character?

The queen nodded slightly and said, "You are right, but Empress Li is under house arrest and there is no possibility for her to leave Changchun Palace again. You should be nice to your third brother and take good care of him. Then your father will look up to you."

The Queen also hinted to the Fourth Prince that the Third Prince had no chance of ascending the throne, and that he should show as much brotherly affection as possible, as this was what the Emperor wanted to see.

The Queen waved her hand, and Huichun went out to call the Third Prince in.

"Your son pays respects to the Empress Dowager,"

"Third brother." The fourth prince smiled brightly. He understood the queen's hint that the third prince had no chance of ascending the throne. So he no longer considered the third prince as an opponent.

"Fourth brother."

"Empress Mother, why was my mother confined by the Emperor?" Although the Third Prince wanted to plead for his mother, after thinking it over, he felt that he should not do so directly. He should first know what mistake his mother had made, so as not to anger the Emperor and then implicate his mother.

"You really don't know?" Although the emperor had issued a gag order, the order could not stop people from gossiping about such things, so the queen did not expect that the third prince would come to her directly without asking.

"I don't know, please tell me clearly, Madam." The Third Prince really didn't know.
