Childbearing system: The royal family is shocked to see their offspring wither away!

My heart started beating faster and faster, and a piercing pain spread throughout my heart.

The queen shed silent tears.

This scene made the emperor even more uncomfortable.

Afterwards, he said to the queen: "However, I will not treat you unfairly, nor will I treat Old Nine."

"I know... it was extremely difficult for you and Lao Jiu to finally recognize each other as your relatives."

"After that, you saved the lives of the third and fourth brothers. In fact... their mother's families were more or less accomplices in causing you and the ninth brother to not recognize your relatives for many years and to have a rift in your family relationship."

"So I know you, you are extremely kind, and you are a good queen."

"I will naturally not let the third and fourth brothers go!"

"This time, since they provoked Jiang Zhao, I will definitely not let them go. They were the ones who made the mistake first. They were the ones who provoked Jiang Zhao first!"

The queen was stunned when she heard this, and then asked: "Could it be... Your Majesty!" "Your Majesty, you want to...?"

"Yes, I want to kill them both."

The emperor said firmly: "Old Nine has suffered so much. I can't just care about Old Three and Old Four and ignore the suffering Old Nine has endured for so many years."

"The third and fourth brothers bullied Jiang Zhao when the ninth brother was young. The ninth brother and I no longer care about what happened at that time. "But I didn't expect that they would bully the ninth brother again and again! They really treat me as if I don't exist!"

"So, after much thought, I decided to kill the third and fourth brothers. Otherwise, they won't let it go in the future."

"If we don't kill him, but just make him a commoner, he might rebel again one day! Then there will be even more trouble."

The queen nodded and said nothing.

The emperor continued: "By the way, there is another good news."

The emperor said wearily, "I'm afraid you returned to Kyoto too early, didn't you know?"

"Zhi Ning is pregnant! She is pregnant with Lao Jiu's child and it has been more than three months now."

"???"

"!!!"

"what?!"

When the queen heard this, she felt a shock in her heart, and then she was surprised.

"You mean...you mean Zhining is pregnant!"

"She's so lucky!"

The Queen was very pleased, "Zhi Ning this child...ah, I knew she was blessed."

If Chen Zhining had not been pregnant at such a critical moment, the emperor would probably not have been able to be so cruel to his two sons.

He must give an explanation to the child in Chen Zhining's belly.

Those are his grandson and granddaughter.

Their grandchildren had not yet been born, but their father was killed by the third and fourth brothers. This is a huge grudge.

How could the emperor not be sad? He felt sad when he thought about this.

So, at this time the emperor made up his mind that the issue of Lao Jiu must be resolved.

"But... this matter is a royal scandal."

The Queen suddenly said, "We can't make this matter public."

The emperor said: "Just tell the public that it was the Third and Fourth Princes who failed to handle government affairs properly."

The emperor was very tired and said, "That's why I demoted him to a commoner."

"But as for the matter of death...it can't be an order from the royal family."

"Let's just say that the two of them fell off a cliff and died while being sent abroad by me."

"To the outside world, everyone just needs to pretend to be confused. In fact, everyone knows the truth in their hearts."

No matter how many excuses the emperor gave, they all knew that something had happened to His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince.

But, people in the royal family always have to save their reputation, and they cannot let their royal family members lose face.

The Emperor discussed this with the Empress.

The queen nodded, not thinking there was anything wrong with it, and said to the emperor, "In that case, Your Majesty, I'll leave it to you to decide, right?"

Anyway, she also held a grudge against the third and fourth brothers.

The queen was very happy with this treatment.

But...even if she, the queen, wanted to ask His Majesty to kill the third and fourth princes.

Can the emperor be killed without making up his mind? !

It is impossible to let public opinion oppress the emperor.

The only way to solve the problem is for the emperor to make up his mind and kill the third and fourth princes.

She took a deep breath, and a look of determination flashed across her gentle and beautiful face.

The Queen said to the Emperor, "It is a blessing in disguise that Zhining is pregnant now. Let's find a chance to go to the Ninth Prince's residence to see Zhining and her four children!"

"it is good."

The emperor nodded.

So next, they released the third prince and the fourth prince.

And arranged for the third prince, the fourth prince and the fourth prince's wife to enter the palace immediately.

In the Sky Prison, the three of them were still discussing anxiously when they entered the palace.

The fourth prince said, "Father, are you just going to let us go like this?"

“It feels a little unreal!”

Lin also nodded, her face full of fatigue.

Ever since the Third and Fourth Princes were demoted to commoners, it had become extremely difficult for her to support the Fourth Prince's Mansion alone.

Especially since her family background isn't that good, and her own personality... doesn't allow her to maintain any respect.

The Third Prince snorted coldly and said to his sister-in-law and fourth brother: "Well, what else can we do if you don't let us go?!"

"Could it be possible that he could really kill us?!"

"We are our father's biological sons!"

"Even though that Old Nine is my father's biological son, isn't he still alive?!"

"Besides... we two are two sons, and the ninth one is one son. Father will definitely be more partial to us!"

"..."

Lin thought this made sense, but it was a little unreasonable.

She said in a panic, "But... can we fool the Queen?!"

"You don't know how many times your subordinates have begged for mercy on your behalf in recent times!"

"But His Majesty just refused to let you out!"

"It's been several months now, and I finally let you two out! You scared me to death!"

She even thought that her fourth child was going to die.

After that, the Third Prince sneered and said, "Don't worry, even if the Queen pressures Father and wants to kill the two of us, Father will not agree."

"After all, the Queen's side is full of loyal officials stationed in Yongzhou. How could these loyal officials of the Wei family use the power of the Wei family to oppress my father? Isn't this courting death?!"

"It would be fine if they were disloyal, but they are loyal subjects...so loyal subjects will definitely listen to the emperor."
