Since ancient times, that position has been occupied by the most capable, and she believes that her son is no worse than the crown prince.

The only difference, she felt, was that she didn't have King Chen's protection and the age gap between her and the prince.

But all this was done deliberately by the emperor.

Even if she was dissatisfied, she didn't dare to show it easily.

After all, in this harem, the emperor's majesty is unchallengeable.

However, now her son had only gotten close to a few ministers, and the emperor began to warn them so sternly.

She was not convinced, nor was she willing to give in.

She felt that the emperor was too partial and only saw the good in the crown prince but not the excellence in the second prince.

Imperial Concubine Wenxi tightly grasped the handkerchief in her hand, and her wrist joints turned white from the force.

There was a determination in her eyes, she decided that she couldn't just sit there and wait for death.

She wanted to gain more opportunities for her prince, and she wanted the second prince to be the one who controlled the world.

After the Crown Prince and Prince Chen came out of the imperial study, they smiled at each other, then got on the carriage together and told the coachman to drive to Bai Mansion.

Along the way, the prince was in a particularly good mood. He kept looking out through the car window, as if he couldn't wait to tell Bai Chenfeng the good news.

King Chen sat quietly aside, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised and a hint of relief in his eyes.

He knew that Bai Chenfeng's appointment as an official in the court was of great significance to the Bai family.

From then on, Mr. Bai's family would no longer be just the Bai family dependent on the Left Prime Minister, but would truly have the capital to gain a foothold in the court.

The carriage sped through the streets of the capital, the wheels rolling and raising a cloud of dust.

The prince sat in the carriage, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.

He recalled the time when he studied and played with Bai Chenfeng. At that time, they were carefree and full of hope for the future.

Now, Bai Chenfeng finally has the opportunity to realize his ambitions and display his talents in the court. He is happy for his good friend.

Finally, the carriage stopped in front of the Bai Mansion.

When the servants of the Bai Mansion saw that it was the carriage of the Crown Prince and King Chen, they hurried forward to greet them and respectfully invited them into the mansion.

Inside the Bai Mansion, Bai Qingbai and his wife Han were discussing something in the hall.

When they heard the servants come to report that the Crown Prince and King Chen had arrived, they were surprised and hurriedly stood up to greet them.

As soon as the prince saw Mr. Bai and his wife, he smiled and said, "Congratulations to Mr. Bai and Mrs. Bai. Bai Chenfeng is about to enter the court as an official. This is a great joyous event!"

When Mr. Bai and his wife heard this, a look of surprise appeared on their faces.

Madam Bai's eyes were red with excitement, and she said with a trembling voice: "This... This is really great. Thank you, Your Highness the Crown Prince and Your Highness Prince Chen, for your support."

She knew very well that the prince had said so.

Then it must be true that the son entered the court as an official.

Just then, Bai Chenfeng rushed over after hearing the news.

He was dressed in a white robe, with an upright posture, handsome face, and his eyes revealed confidence and determination.

The prince saw Bai Chenfeng, walked up to him with a smile, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Uncle, you have finally made it. From now on, you will be like the left prime minister, and you will be able to stand in the court and work for the welfare of the people."

Bai Chenfeng bowed respectfully to the Crown Prince and King Chen, and then said, "Thank you for your trust, Your Highness the Crown Prince and Your Highness the King Chen. Chen Feng will definitely live up to your expectations and work hard to do his part."

King Chen looked at Bai Chenfeng, nodded, and said, "Chenfeng, you are talented and have experience in the military. I believe you will be able to take on the position of the Minister of Personnel. However, the person you should be loyal to is the emperor, so remember not to form a clique for personal gain."

Bai Chenfeng replied solemnly: "Don't worry, Your Highness Prince Chen, Chenfeng understands his responsibilities. Chenfeng is loyal to the emperor and will serve the court and the people wholeheartedly. He has no intention of forming a clique for personal gain."

Although Prince Chen is his brother-in-law, it is still more appropriate to call him His Highness Prince Chen in front of outsiders.

You won't be caught making mistakes.

After all, he will be standing in the court in the future.

At that time, there was no such thing as brother-in-law.

Everyone sat down in the hall, and Master Bai hurriedly ordered the servants to prepare tea and snacks.

The prince talked to Bai Chenfeng about the affairs of the court with great interest. His eyes sparkled with excitement, and he said, "Uncle, when you enter the court as an official, you must make good use of your talents. Although my father is in charge of the court now, there are still many problems that need to be solved. You must select true talents for the court when you are in the Ministry of Personnel."

Bai Chenfeng nodded slightly and said, "Hehe, don't worry, I will definitely handle this matter for you. The affairs of the Ministry of Personnel are of great importance, and I will definitely not disappoint the expectations of the Emperor and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Mrs. Bai Han watched from the side, her heart filled with satisfaction and pride.

She watched her son having a pleasant conversation with the Crown Prince and King Chen, and she seemed to see a brighter future for the Bai family.

At this moment, a mysterious figure quietly flashed by on the street outside the Bai Mansion.

This person is the confidant of the Second Prince, and he has been secretly monitoring the movements of the Crown Prince and King Chen.

After learning that Bai Chenfeng was about to enter the court as an official, he quickly returned to the Second Prince's residence and informed the Second Prince of the matter.

After hearing this, the second prince's face became even gloomier. He paced back and forth in the study, with jealousy and resentment surging in his heart like a tide.

"Why can Bai Chenfeng serve as an official in the imperial court?" He gritted his teeth and said, "Father is still partial to me as always. Not only did he suppress me this time, but he also let the crown prince place his own people in my place!"

The second prince is only a ten-year-old child after all, but he is at an age where he longs for fatherly love.

But the emperor was destined to disappoint him.

He was very angry that his grandfather was not allowed to stay at home.

Without his grandfather's support, it would have been much more difficult for him to take that position.

What's more, my grandparents have no chance to extricate themselves.

After venting his anger, the second prince sat down.

It was also at this time that Concubine Wenxi's personal maid Zhudi came.

After paying respect to the Second Prince, she called out respectfully, "Your Highness, the Imperial Concubine asked me to tell you to behave yourself and not act rashly. Don't let the Emperor catch you doing anything wrong, otherwise your position will only get further and further away."

Although the little girl came to deliver a message, she did not dare to look at the Second Prince's expression.

At this moment, the second prince's face looked extremely ugly.

Although I know that my mother will not harm me.

But he couldn't help but get angry.

Be patient. Be patient with everything.

Isn’t it enough that he has endured for so many years?

When will I no longer have to endure?

The teacup on the table was knocked to the ground.

The maids and eunuchs knelt on the ground.

They were trembling and their heads were lowered to their chests.

Zhu Di sighed and advised: "Second Prince, it's hard for the Imperial Concubine to stay in the palace. She still has to appease the Emperor today. You should not enter the palace for the time being."

Even if she enters the palace, it will only make the emperor even more unhappy.

The second prince waved his hand to indicate that he understood.

Only then did Zhudi retreat.
