Chapter 1177: Empress Chen
Translator: Lonelytree
The Imperial Palace of the Capital
In the past few days, the Emperor had been refusing to et anyone. Even the Emperor’s most beloved Noble Consort Zhou was refused. This gradually attracted the attention of the imperial concubines, princes, and grandchildren.
Everyone had a vague guess that the Emperor had not seen anyone for such a long ti. Could it be that he was seriously ill?
Or perhaps, His Majesty might have secretly left the palace!
However, other than His Majesty himself, no one could give them an answer.
Kunning Palace
“Mother, the people in the palace are secretly guessing that Father has left the palace. Is it true?” Crown Prince Yuwen Yanyu asked Empress Chen with a frown.
Empress Chen sat calmly on the chaise lounge and said lightly,” A guess is just a guess. Without seeing His Majesty himself, so what if you guessed correctly?”
However, the Crown Prince asked,” Then Mother, do you know that Father, he…” Was he really sick, or had he secretly left the palace?
Empress Chen shook her head. “His Majesty has always had his own plans and sense of propriety.” She did not tell him that the Emperor was really sick or had left the palace.
However, the information that was revealed told the Crown Prince that His Majesty had indeed left the palace.
After listening to Empress Chen’s hint, the Crown Prince’s pupils contracted violently, and he found it hard to believe.
Then, he revealed a worried expression and said,” Mother, it’s so dangerous outside. Father…”
Empress Chen waved her hand to stop him from continuing. She warned the Crown Prince with a sharp gaze and said coldly,” Your Highness, the walls have ears! Mother said that His Majesty always has his own plans and limits when doing things. We just have to wait patiently!”
Then, she warned,” Crown Prince, don’t do anything unnecessary, understand?”
The Crown Prince’s expression imdiately turned stiff, but he still replied respectfully,” Yes, Mother!”
He doesn’t know what the reason is, why mother would treat him so coldly, clearly, they are mother and son, aren’t they?
The Crown Prince felt bitter.
Empress Chen glanced at the Crown Prince’s expression and sighed helplessly in her heart. Then, she said coldly,” Crown Prince, if there’s nothing else, you may leave. Mother needs to rest!”
The Crown Prince replied,” Yes, Mother. Have a good rest!”
After the Crown Prince left, Empress Chen’s nanny looked at the cold Empress Chen and sighed softly.” Empress, the Crown Prince will understand your painstaking efforts one day.”
Empress Chen looked at the Crown Princes back and smiled bitterly.” Nanny, do you think the Crown Prince will bla for being cruel?”
Ever since she gave birth to him, she had ignored him. After he grew up, she was also cold and heartless to him.
However, she did not do it on purpose.
Nanny advised,” Empress, don’t think too much!”
Empress Chen nodded. “As long as he is well, everything is fine!”
After the Crown Prince returned to his palace, his mood imdiately beca complicated.
Every ti he went to see his mother, he was filled with anticipation and nervousness, but more than that, he was filled with longing.
He really hoped that his Imperial Mother would be like the mothers of other families and ask him if he had been eating well, sleeping well, and so on…
However, his mother was very cold to him. Sotis, she was not even
willing to look at him.
Sotis, he really wanted to ask his mother why she hated him so much.
The Crown Prince sighed softly and said,” Forget it!”
A little eunuch walked over and said to the Crown Prince,” Your Highness, soone outside sent this!”
As he spoke, the young eunuch passed a piece of paper to the Crown Prince.
The Crown Prince frowned and took the note from the eunuch.
As soon as he opened the note and saw the contents, his pupils constricted violently, and his expression beca exceptionally excited.
He said,” I’ll make a trip to the Palace of Earthly Tranquility. Get soone to guard the door and not let anyone step in. Do you understand?”
“Yes, Your Highness!”
The Crown Prince ca to the Palace of Earthly Tranquility again with a complicated expression.
Empress Chen’s nanny walked over and asked,” Your Highness, is there anything urgent? The Empress is resting!’
The Crown Prince said anxiously,” Granny Wang, I have sothing urgent to attend to. I must see Mother imdiately. I’ll have to trouble Granny Wang to inform her!”
Granny Wang looked at the anxious Crown Prince and nodded.” Alright. This old servant will report to the Empress. As for… Sigh, forget it.” In fact, what she wanted to say was that it was not up to her whether the Empress wanted to see him or not..
