Chapter 186 The Little Transparent in the Princess and Prince Consort Story (51)
When the news of the second prince's becoming a monk reached the palace, countless porcelain pieces in the Queen's palace were smashed to pieces.
The third princess Li Danruo found the news ridiculous. She had gone through so much trouble to beg Chu Yuhe to get her brother back, and yet he became a monk not long after that.
Chu Yuhe was about to vomit blood at this moment. His years of hard work were wasted on this pile of useless "mud". Instead of this, he might as well put some effort into military power, otherwise he would not be ending up with nothing.
Things have come to this, and Chu Yuhe can only hold his nose and consider himself unlucky. After all, he has already made an engagement with the Xue family, and he still has to do what he has to do.
Emperor Zhaohui was also very curious about what happened to this ambitious son, so he sent someone to recall the second prince to the palace to see what was going on!
Yes, Emperor Zhaohui knew this son very well. He recalled the second prince from the imperial mausoleum simply to use him as a shield for the child in the belly of the fifth princess Li Handan.
But I didn’t expect that this “shield” would break first.
The "Second Prince" entered the palace to meet the emperor wearing a Taoist robe. He knelt in the main hall and talked about Taoist thoughts. He did not look like the prince before.
Emperor Zhaohui, who was not close to the second prince, of course did not recognize that the person in front of him was an imposter.
Not to mention him, even the queen didn't recognize that her son had been replaced.
Those who had originally planned to "re-energize a cold stove" were now very grateful, because the second prince had no chance of becoming emperor at all.
The eldest prince finally went to the border, but he sent a few people to his fiefdom as tax collectors.
Seeing his second brother like this, he became energetic again and knew that it was normal for him to stay in Beijing.
Emperor Zhaohui was also a clever man. He was thinking of finding another shield for Li Handan, but after much deliberation, he decided to "trap" his eldest son.
This "trap" method is also very simple and crude.
Among the three princes, the second prince became a monk, the third prince has not yet been married, and the only one who is married is the eldest prince.
Emperor Zhaohui hinted to his eldest son that he currently did not have a satisfactory successor, but he might consider finding a candidate among his grandchildren.
The eldest prince thought to himself that he was the only one who had the conditions now!
What are you waiting for! He married two concubines and three concubines in one go. Together with the previous princess, in just five years, the eldest prince's family had seven children. However, he only had two sons, and neither of them was the princess's legitimate son.
One was born to a concubine, and the other was born to a maid.
Compared to the fifth princess, Li Handan's life was much more stable. She only gave birth to two children. The first was a daughter, and three years later she and Chu Yuxuan had their first son.
Chu Yuhe and Xue Qi have been married for more than four years. He has not taken a concubine, but Xue Qi has not given birth to any children for him.
Compared with the situation in his previous life where he had many descendants, it was like heaven and earth. Chu Yuhe couldn't help but wonder, could it be that Li Danruo was really more suitable to have his child?
After all, he and Li Handan had no children in his previous life, and all his children in his previous life were born to Li Danruo.
With a skeptical attitude, Chu Yuhe pretended to fall into the trap and went to Li Danruo's bed again. As expected, he succeeded in one go and she gave birth to two more children for him.
When Li Handan gave birth to a daughter, Emperor Zhaohui was not particularly disappointed. A hundred days later, he conferred the title of "Princess of Changle County" on her daughter.
Li Danruo even went to Emperor Zhaohui to ask for reward, hoping that Emperor Zhaohui would also give his daughter a title.
"Your daughter is so young, she is not worthy of this blessing." Emperor Zhaohui refused with just one sentence.
"But father, my sister's daughter is just over a hundred days old and she already has a title!" Li Danruo said unwillingly.
"How can it be the same? When Changle was born, the Imperial Astronomical Observatory calculated that she was a very blessed person." Emperor Zhaohui looked impatient, "Besides, she is under my protection and has a destiny with me. A mere county lady can naturally suppress her."
When Li Danruo wanted to say something, he was stopped by the Queen who came hurriedly. The two of them could only leave Emperor Zhaohui's Qianqing Palace in displeasure.
When everyone thought that the Fifth Princess had reached the pinnacle of the emperor's favor, Emperor Zhaohui's actions once again refreshed everyone's perception.
