Chapter 251 Looking at him in shock
After they arrived at Ye Kingdom day and night, Chen Yunjing hurried into the palace to report the cause and effect of the whole matter to the emperor.
After the emperor learned that all this was planned by the Fourth Prince and the Prime Minister, he was extremely angry. However, after being furious, the emperor calmed down again. The Prime Minister had passed away and the past was not pursued. Although the fourth prince did something too much, it was not a crime of rebellion.
After the emperor stayed in the study for an afternoon, he was still exhausted and issued an imperial edict, demoting the fourth prince to a commoner and not allowed to enter the palace for the rest of his life.
As for the Prime Minister's funeral, everything was left to Chen Yunjing and Shen Yunyu to arrange.
After Chen Yunjing took the errand, he hurriedly left the palace. However, Chen Yunyu was summoned into the palace by the emperor that night.
The next day when Chen Yunyu returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, he happened to meet Chen Yunjing who had been kneeling in the mourning hall for a night. Chen Yunjing raised his head and looked at Chen Yunyu who was standing at the door, and said in a low voice: "Brother is back?"
"I'm back." Chen Yunyu sighed, walked to the Prime Minister's coffin, knelt down, kowtowed three times seriously, then turned his head to look at Chen Yunjing and said, "Jing'er, where is Grandma Wang's body?"
Chen Yunjing was slightly stunned, then pursed his lips and said, "I'm parked in my yard, Wanwan is guarding...Mother-in-law...I will find another place to bury it."
"No need." Chen Yunyu turned his head, looked at the Prime Minister's coffin, closed his eyes and said, "Buried her and his father together."
"Brother?" Chen Yunjing looked at him in shock.
He knew that he was not the prime minister's biological son, but his elder brother was the prime minister's biological son. Did the dead prime minister's wife bury Grandma Wang and Prime Minister together?
"Jing'er." Chen Yunyu smiled bitterly, turned to look at him, and then said to him with difficulty: "Last night in the palace, the emperor told me a lot of things. My mother... was the Prime Minister's wife. She was the emperor's real sister. She fell in love with a guard despite the emperor's opposition. Later, she became pregnant. The emperor was very angry and ordered the guard to be executed..."
"The emperor was still having a headache at that time. He didn't know how to take the fetus in the princess's belly. It was also the father at that time... he advanced to the emperor, saying that he was willing to marry the princess, which solved the problem that the emperor had always had a headache..."
"What do you mean by brother?" Chen Yunjing looked at Chen Yunyu with a confused look on his face, and his thin lips opened slightly. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
"It means, I am the princess's illegitimate son." Chen Yunyu said to Chen Yunjing with some fatigue: "We are both, neither of us are the father's biological sons."
Chen Yunjing: “…”
The news came so suddenly that he didn't know how to deal with it.
Their fathers, the Prime Minister, and the two sons under their name, were not their own children. One was the emperor's son and the other was the princess' son. In other words, the Prime Minister raised two children for the royal family...
