"Go sit in your mother's palace. I haven't seen you for a long time. I must miss you."

After Emperor Liang finished speaking to the Prince of Jin, he called Eunuch Yu over and said, "Send the Prince of Jin to the Imperial Concubine's Palace for a visit."

Eunuch Yu bowed and said to the Prince of Jin, "Your Highness, please come in."

A trace of suspicion flashed in the eyes of the King of Jin, and he bowed to Emperor Liang and said, "I will take my leave."

As soon as he came out of the imperial study, he came face to face with Ming Wang, who was squatting on the ground and acting stealthily.

The two stared at each other.

Prince Ming stood up and said, "I will come to see the emperor on behalf of Zhao Zhao."

Prince Jin walked away expressionlessly.

Along the way, he kept thinking about his father's words in his mind.

His father asked him two questions in total. The first was whether he had seen his second brother in the small town on the southwestern border.

He didn't know why his father asked about his second brother's whereabouts. Was it because his father discovered that his second brother had secretly gone to the southwest and his father wanted to punish him, or was there some other reason?

The second question was about the thing he never wanted to talk about.

It was obvious that he had already taken care of the officials traveling with him, and their whereabouts that night were modified in the files.

Could it be that my second brother found out something and informed father?

"Eunuch Yu, when we were in the palace, my mother and I treated you well, right?"

Eunuch Yu said with deep fear, "I am so humbled. Your Highness and the Empress have shown great kindness. I will never forget it."

The King of Jin said, "Eunuch Yu, you are too kind. I just don't understand something. Please help me solve this puzzle."

Eunuch Yu bowed his head and said, "Your Highness, please speak."

The King of Jin asked, "Why did my second brother come to the palace today?"

Eunuch Yu hesitated: "This..."

King Jin said calmly: "If it's difficult, forget it."

Eunuch Yu sighed, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that the person he spent the night with that night was not Dou."

After Prince Jin left, Emperor Liang and Lu Zhaoyan fell into silence.

King Ming was extremely anxious outside.

I've been listening to this story from beginning to end in vain, why don't you two say something?

My eldest brother is favoring a woman outside, what happens next?

Did someone come to your door?

Did you bring a child with you?

Otherwise, Father, you wouldn’t care so much.

Prince Ming was anxious and wanted to get into Emperor Liang's mind to see what he was thinking.

Emperor Liang finally spoke: "Your elder brother..."

Lu Zhaoyan said stubbornly: "He knew that I went to the southwest secretly, but he never told my father. Why do you think that was? I guess it's because he feels guilty and has done something wrong to me, so he is afraid of getting into trouble."

This was the first time in his life that he interrupted his father and said so much in one breath.

Gongsun Yanming brought Dou Qingyi and her son to the emperor's home to recognize their relatives, but he did not disclose to the public where he had "favored" Dou Qingyi. Except for his father, everyone else, including the Prince of Jin, believed that he and Dou Qingyi had a brief affair in the imperial city.

At this moment, he had almost guessed what was going on.

Dou Qingyi went to the inn to find him, but entered the eldest brother's room by mistake. The eldest brother thought Dou Qingyi was a beauty presented to him, and spent a night with her. When he woke up, he found that she was an ugly woman.

Coincidentally, the eldest brother found him in the inn and threw the unconscious Dou Qingyi onto his bed.

Dou Qingyi was completely unaware of this. When she opened her eyes and saw him, she thought the person she had spent the night with was herself.

It's so unfair for him to bear this blame!

Emperor Liang also knew that Lu Zhaoyan had been wronged. He paused and sighed, "Qi'er is blessed with the fortune of a unicorn, and your position as crown prince came because of him. In a sense, it can be considered a blessing in disguise for you."

"In theory, I should restore order, but by then not only will Qi'er's status be changed, but your position as crown prince will also be difficult to keep. You can continue to be Qi'er's father, and as for Dou, you can find a reason to send her out of the mansion."

Lu Zhaoyan said without hesitation: "I don't want it."

Emperor Liang frowned: "What did you say?"

Lu Zhaoyan met the sharp gaze of Emperor Liang and said in a resounding voice: "I said, I don't want the position of crown prince, I want my son, I want my wife!"
