"Xiao He, I don't care whose son you are, and I don't care who you are, nor do you care who you are. I won't marry you in my prime, so just give it up. " Eleventh Princess, this could be considered to be the formal rejection of Xiao He.

"You have a lover?" Xiao He stared at her eyes as he asked.

"…" Princess Eleven froze, a blush on her face.

Xiao He was stunned in his heart, and a rock instantly sank as he asked, "Who is he?" There was already a strong sense of killing intent in those words!

"It's my business. It's none of your business."

"Who is he, Ling Yue'er?" I have to know! I want to see what qualifications he has to take you away from me! If he has the ability to fight me, then I'll back out. If he doesn't, then he has no right to have you! " Xiao He had become famous at a young age, and his achievements were illustrious, causing his name to shake the entire army. He had always been conceited, and now that his beloved girl had a lover, this was an extraordinary shame and humiliation to him.

"He won't fight you! Stop talking nonsense! I did not allow you to meddle in my affairs! You are not allowed to call me by my name either! " Princess Eleven says angrily.

"Is he a coward?" Xiao He frowned as he asked.

"No!" He's not! I forbid you to say that about him! " Princess Eleven reached out and forcefully pushed Xiao He away, but Xiao He's strength was beyond compare. Even after Princess Eleven pushed him away, he still remained standing and unmoving —

"Since you're so protective of him, I'd like to see just what kind of abilities he has now!"

The first time Xiao He saw Princess Eleven, he was hit by her, and it made his face blur. At that time, his gaze fell on this "vicious" princess.

He had always thought that after he built his career, he would marry her into his family. But who knew that someone else would appear out of nowhere. This caught him off guard, but at the same time he was extremely unconvinced!

"He doesn't like me at all. Are you satisfied now?" Princess Eleven gave Xiao He a fierce glare before passing by him and hurriedly running away.

Xiao He stood in place, his hand holding onto the little wood person he had carved himself. A trace of icy coldness leaked out of the corners of his mouth as he coldly muttered, "You don't like me? Then his sin will be even greater! "

Xiao He returned the little wood person to his waist and returned to the banquet. Xiao Zhenhai's expression was gloomy. He picked up his wine cup, drank it and said in a low voice — —

"He'er, Princess Mo Yin has forgotten what happened tonight!"

Xiao He had already recovered his usual cold arrogance as he said, "Father, don't worry."

The banquet continued. The sounds of music could be heard. One by one, the delicacies began to change. It was a scene of singing and dancing.

At this moment, however, the Eastern Palace was a different desolate scene. There were piles of yellow and withered leaves all over the ground, and the place was lifeless and lifeless.

It had been over a year since Feng Ming had been deposed. During this period of time, no one cared about him.

Zhou Chengdi doted on Feng Ming and said, "Feng Ming was born of the empress, I love you," so even though it was a busy day, Zhou Chengdi still insisted on taking care of his son, who was born to the throne until he was six years old.

Later on, he chose the famous scholar Zhang Guang, Li Qiansheng and others as his masters; a little older, he specially summoned the famous military scientist Tang Liu to teach the crown prince. The crown prince did not disappoint Zhou Chengdi when he was young, and was quick to learn.

However, as a grown up, he suffered from a disease known as extravagance. Thus, some bad rumors began to reach Emperor Zhou's ears. Of course, most of them were manipulated by the Fourth Prince, Feng Qianyue, behind the scenes.

In the end, with great disappointment, Zhou Chengdi issued an imperial edict, "The crown prince, Feng Ming, is no longer virtuous and virtuous. He has formed a personal alliance, and has the intention of murdering his father."

As a result, the crown prince was finally crippled and imprisoned in the Eastern Palace along with the crown prince's consort, Chu Zhen. The third son was demoted to a commoner, and the rest of the people were greatly implicated. The crown prince's faction, the ninth prince, Feng Yunzheng, was seized by the emperor as an opportunity to leave the palace.

At this moment, within the desolate Eastern Palace.

The music from outside came one after another, the abandoned princess consort, Chu Zhen, was dressed in plain clothes, her face was pale. She opened the door with a squeak, and the smell of alcohol hit her in the face. She took two steps back, choking, as she covered her nose with her hand.

He saw the crown prince, Feng Ming, also dressed in blue cloth shoes. He was lying on the messy desk. His body was no longer as sharp as it used to be. He looked like a living corpse waiting to die.

There was an empty wine jar on the ground, and it was clear that there was a brush in his hand. Chu Zhen walked up and saw the contents written on the book under the crown prince's cheek.

"How much trouble can I get? "It's like the waters of a river flowing eastward …"

Chu Zhen couldn't help but shake his head, then slowly backed out, closing the door behind him.

The Crown Princess, Chu Zhen, was the direct descendent of the Chu Country, as well as the cousin of the empress. Originally, she thought she was the Crown Prince's consort, and the Queen was her own aunt, so she had already stepped into the front gate of the harem. But who knew that the Crown Prince would be disappointed when she got married for less than four years, and then she would become a crippled Crown Prince's concubine, and she would have to live in the East Palace with the crown prince for the rest of her life.

In the future, if the new crown prince were to ascend to the throne, the Eastern Palace would have to make way for them. And waiting for the new emperor to ascend to the throne, they would definitely die, because the crown prince was the only legitimate son, so the new emperor would definitely not allow such a threatening person to live on by his side.

Thinking of this hopeless future, Chu Zhe sighed deeply and looked at his hands. Without a servant serving her wholeheartedly, she would do everything by herself. It was cold this winter, and not enough charcoal. Her hands were already so rough that they could no longer be seen.

At this moment, the gate of the Eastern Palace opened. A eunuch appeared within the palace hall that had not been seen for a long time, and he knelt on the ground.

Chu Zhen looked at the person in front of him blankly and asked, "What day is it today? It's so lively."

The eunuch replied, "It's Esteemed Empress Dowager's birthday today. For the emperor's filial piety, he's holding a birthday banquet at the Supreme Splendor Hall. The empress dowager's kind and merciful, ordering the servants to deliver some food to the Eastern Palace."

"So it was the Empress Dowager's birthday," Chu Zhen's eyes revealed a hint of helplessness and bitterness. He recalled that in the past, there had been a part of her in that luxurious and beautiful palace hall, but now he could only stand outside and listen to the laughter and eat a few more mouthfuls of cold food.

Chu Zhen couldn't help but sigh, "Put it down."

However, the man did not leave. Chu Zhen was shocked, and he hurriedly asked, "You gave me this, is it poisonous wine?"
