The assassin's princess is actually my aunt

Chapter 134 The Prince's Confusion

"Mother! Is father confused? How could he give the post of Nine Gates Commander to my third brother!"

Qian Wuling looked at Queen Meng who was sitting on the throne with some impatience.

Queen Meng looked indifferent, not at all surprised, as she looked at Qian Wuling in such a panic.

He reminded in a cold voice: "Prince, watch your words!"

Queen Meng's voice was not sharp, but it was filled with boundless coldness.

Qian Wuling's heart felt as if a basin of ice water had been poured on it, and his hands and feet were cold.

He calmed his mind, even though the anxiety between his brows had not completely faded.

But his expression calmed down.

"Mother, these days, I have put a lot of effort into this position of Nine Gates Commander.

Third brother, he didn’t do anything!

My third brother has been fighting on the border over the years. What does he know?

What else can he do?

Why did the emperor choose my third brother? "Qian Wuling didn't understand why his father did this.

Even though he was more unwilling, this matter fell on the second brother's head.

But at least compared to the third brother, the second brother fought for it.

"The reason is that he did nothing," said Queen Meng.

"Wha...what?"

There was a moment of confusion on Qian Wuling's face.

Then, as if he suddenly thought of something, his face became extremely embarrassed.

He and the second brother tried their best, but to no avail.

The third brother did nothing, but was highly valued by his father?

Then they don’t have to do anything from now on!

The unwillingness on Qian Wuling's face was too obvious, and Queen Meng's eyes flickered slightly.

There was also some coldness in the words he said.

"Do you really think that your father doesn't know about the little things you did?

I was stupid and exposed a lot of evidence and was caught by others.

You still dare to say shamelessly that you have spent a lot of effort on your work.

How much is used for practical purposes, and how much is used for crooked ways! "

“Mother, I…” Qian Wuling was shocked. He thought he was cautious enough.

However, he did not expect that everything he did was always under the noses of his father and mother.

Queen Meng waved her hand, looking a little tired: "Your father did this for his own reasons."

Qian Wuling still didn't understand why his father had always given important positions in the court to either him or the second oldest son.

Or, hold it in your hand.

Even though he is the fifth brother that the emperor loves the most, he has no real power except Zhou Gaoyang from the Zhou family.

"Mother, there is one thing I don't understand.

Could it be that father is serious about what he did this time, or is he just fed up with the fight between me and the second brother?

Otherwise, why would he give it to his third brother?"

Qian Wuling asked with a frown.

"Why can't it be handed over to Prince Sheng?" Queen Meng sat on the throne with an unclear expression.

Qian Wuling said naturally: "It is well known that the emperor doesn't like my third brother.

How could Father give such an important position to my third brother? "

Queen Meng sat quietly, her eyes somewhat empty, as if she was deep in thought about something, and had no response to the prince's questions.

The prince felt a little strange and couldn't help shouting, "Mother?

Queen Meng still did not answer, but just looked at Qian Wuling steadily.

After a while, she suddenly asked Qian Wuling: "Have you ever cared about your father's health?"

The Queen's tone was flat and it was hard to tell what her tone was.

"Father...Father's body?"

After hearing what the queen said, the prince felt a tightness in his heart, realizing that he might have overlooked something.

He suddenly thought of the increasingly strong smell of ambergris in Chengqian Palace every time he went there recently.

Could it be that it was to cover up the smell of the medicine?

"Mother, there is something wrong with father's health..."?

Queen Meng looked at Qian Wuling with clear eyes.

He quickly replied, "Your Highness is naturally concerned about your father's health, but I have been busy with work recently and have not been able to visit you often."

Queen Meng looked at the prince, a hint of disappointment flashed in her eyes, but she still said dignifiedly:

"As the crown prince, you should be concerned about your father's health.

Your Majesty has been working hard for state affairs and is getting thinner and thinner. You should visit him more often and show your filial piety."

The prince replied respectfully, "I will remember your mother's teachings and will pay more attention to your father in the future.

The queen nodded and said, "Okay, go down..."

"Yes! I will take my leave..."

After Qian Wuling walked out of the palace, he whispered a few words to the people around him.

The man retreated immediately.

Qian Wuling thought about what Queen Meng said, his brows furrowed.

In the palace, Queen Meng was still sitting quietly as she had been before.

Even though there was only the queen herself and her personal servant Nanny Zhang in the palace now.

The queen still has an elegant figure and graceful manners, which seems to be innate.

Even when no one was paying attention, she still maintained this noble posture.

Always maintain a high level of vigilance and rigor, without any relaxation.

Nanny Zhang's eyes were filled with heartache.

The status and responsibilities of a queen meant that the girl in her family could not relax as easily as ordinary people.

Her Majesty the Queen must always appear in front of everyone in the best possible manner and become a role model in the palace.

You must not be jealous or compete for favors...

Perhaps this is the price one has to pay for being a queen.

The maid hurried over from the side, bent over, and whispered something in Nanny Zhang's ear.

Nanny Zhang nodded, waved her hand, and asked the maid to leave.

Then he said to Queen Meng: "Your Highness, His Highness has sent someone to investigate His Majesty's condition."

Queen Meng said: "Useless thing, after all, you can't keep your cool!"

There seemed to be some displeasure in his eyes, but there was no surprise.

"Your Highness, if His Majesty finds out about your investigation, what will happen?"

Nanny Zhang was a little worried.

Queen Meng curled her lips and said, "How long do you think the emperor's illness can be kept secret?

A few months ago, he hurriedly called that woman's son back to Fengyao City.

I was just worried about myself, and suddenly one day…"

"Your Majesty!" Nanny Zhang suddenly spoke, interrupting Queen Meng.

He shook his head almost imperceptibly.

Queen Meng snorted coldly: "Mammy, do you think I still care?

Not to mention, that woman is already dead, even if she were alive, I wouldn’t care.

So what if I got your true love? The person has been dead for more than ten years!

And I am still Qianyao's queen. Even if I die, the one buried with His Majesty will be me!"

Looking at Queen Meng's eyes, there was full of paranoia.

Nanny Zhang sighed silently in her heart.
