Chapter 177

Be calm

"Father, I was wronged. You must not listen to other people's one-sided words..."

The third prince shot him head on, his heart burning with rage, but the emperor had no patience to listen to him anymore.

Moreover, the Yan family is the Marquis after all. Now that something big happened to Yan Jingtian, their family must be given an explanation.

"Hold it down, and you are not allowed to step out of the house from now on."

Two imperial guards immediately came up and forcibly dragged the third prince down.

Although Mr. Yan was still dissatisfied, seeing that the third prince had been placed in solitary confinement, Emperor Zhenglongyan was furious and could not say anything more, so he clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, I will leave first."

The third prince was dissatisfied. After being imprisoned by the guards in his mansion, he kept yelling and cursing there, completely ignoring the prince's image.

"Let me out now. Why are you keeping me here? It's obviously not my fault!"

The third prince jumped to his feet and cursed in the room: "That boy Yan Jingtian framed me deliberately. I want to go to my father for judgment!"

He knew that there was no hope in interceding with the emperor through Concubine Sheng, but he was still unwilling to do so.

Concubine Sheng felt very unhappy when she mentioned that incident. Although he knew that the third prince had been framed by others, there was no evidence, so even if he felt aggrieved, he could only grit his teeth and swallow it.

Concubine Sheng was not as anxious as the third prince. She smiled and patted the third prince's hand, comforting him: "Your Majesty, don't be anxious. The queen naturally has plans, otherwise she wouldn't have come to you in person."

The third prince understood immediately. After seeing the two maids leaving, he quickly went up to close the door and retreated to Concubine Sheng again.

He and the second prince have been competing for the throne, and both sides are actively trying to win over their own forces. Pei Mo has a heavy army under his command, and is also the target of competition between them.

"Hmph! When the limelight passes, I will make sure those who framed me get retribution!"

With a smile on his face, the third prince hurriedly went up to hold Concubine Sheng's arm and asked her to sit down in the room, thinking about how to tell Concubine Sheng about this.

Moreover, he and the second prince were now evenly matched. If Pei Mo sided with him, he would not have much chance of winning.

"Why? This matter is not my fault. Yan Jingtian obviously wanted to frame me. Not only did my mother not speak for me, but now she came to persuade me. Why?"

Fortunately, on this day, Concubine Sheng from the palace came to the Third Prince's Mansion to deliver a message.

"Your Majesty, you'd better be more at peace these days. Since the Emperor has put you in solitary confinement, you should reflect in your room and don't make any noise."

Although Concubine Sheng had been chanting Buddha's name in the palace on weekdays, she actually sent a lot of spies to lurk around the concubines in the harem, and got a lot of gossip.

The third prince suddenly had a smile on his face again, and he admired his mother even more.

Therefore, although he lives in seclusion, he is well aware of the situation of every concubine in the palace.

The third prince had not seen anyone from the palace for several days. Suddenly he saw Concubine Sheng coming. Naturally, he was very excited and hurried out to greet her.

"I heard that this incident was just a sight. Tian framed the third prince, but the emperor refused to listen to his explanation no matter what, so he came back like this."

When the third prince heard that, he clenched his fists and beat them hard on the table. His eyes narrowed and he gritted his teeth.

"If the child remembers what the queen mother said, the child will definitely not cause trouble again."

Seeing that the surroundings were safe, Concubine Sheng turned around with a faint look of worry on her face.

When the third prince heard this, his whole body went limp and he stood there blankly, already having some bad premonitions in his heart.

"I knew the mother would definitely find a way, so please tell the child quickly."

Concubine Sheng paused and warned: "The emperor has a bad impression of you these days, and the queen has been saying bad things about you in the emperor's ears, so you should be more at ease and don't be caught out by the eels again.

, otherwise the punishment will be more serious, and then we will have no chance of winning."

Concubine Sheng sat dignifiedly on the chair. With a wave of her hand, the two personal maids who had followed from the palace retreated.

"Mother, what do you want to say to the child?"

In the past few days, the servants have been fed up with the third prince's bad temper, and they have been saying bad things about him behind his back in their spare time, feeling quite dissatisfied.

After all, the two of them had been preparing for decades to compete for the position of emperor. If they failed like this, they would inevitably feel unwilling.

The third prince was greatly disappointed when he heard this, and the light in his eyes dimmed.

With this thought passing through his mind, the third prince suddenly felt a little desperate and excitedly reached up and grabbed Concubine Sheng's arm.

Concubine Sheng frowned tightly, looking at her son who was raised by her own hands, she couldn't help but shake her head in disappointment.

In the first few days, the prince kept jumping around in the house and went on a hunger strike to resist the emperor's confinement.

At this time, the third prince banged the door of the house, and the two of them couldn't help but shake their heads, feeling helpless and regretful in their hearts.

"Mother, why are you here to sit with me when you are free today? How is your stay in the palace?"

The maids served delicious meals, but the third prince knocked over a table full of dishes.

"What's happened to the Third Prince these past two days? He seems a little unstable mentally. This is not a good situation." One of his subordinates was worried.

But then his mood gradually calmed down and he turned to look at Concubine Sheng.

"Furthermore, the Queen has become very close to the Pei Mo family in the past few days. The relationship between the second prince and Pei Mo seems to be no longer what it used to be. And according to the gossip I found, the Queen seems to be on good terms with the Pei Mo family."

"The queen mother must help the child. In this case, wouldn't the child have nothing to compete with the second prince?" The third prince was very anxious.

"Don't you understand now? You behaved so ungrately at the Queen's banquet some time ago, and the Emperor is still furious now."

There was a sound of smashing in the house, mixed with the third prince's yelling, and after a while, several maids came out crying.

The subordinates who had their hands outside were also very speechless. Listening to the Third Prince yelling and scolding inside, they shook their heads helplessly and gradually began to discuss him.

"Clang!"

Concubine Sheng nodded, feeling very satisfied: "In this case, the mother is relieved."

On the other side of the General's Mansion, Pei Mo and Murong Qing were discussing Yan Jingtian's condition.

"Is Jingtian's condition getting better? What did the doctor say?" Murong Qing was slightly worried.

Pei Mo sighed: "I haven't woken up yet, maybe because I was seriously injured."
