Chapter 409 Before the Storm (3)
After returning from Changchun Palace, the Crown Princess and Hu Shanxiang went to Yikun Palace immediately.
Concubine Wang asked about today's situation, "She was showing off a lot today, right?"
"This is within expectations, but I also heard some good news today, saying that His Majesty will be back in ten days at most." The Crown Princess knew that there had been no news about Zhu Di for a while, and Concubine Wang was worried.
"That's great. His Majesty is finally coming back." After hearing the news, Concubine Wang's face looked much brighter.
"Yes, so, you must be well, otherwise I will have a hard time explaining to His Majesty when he comes back." The Crown Princess felt a little uneasy when she saw her appearance, but she still didn't dare to show a bad look on her face.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work during this period."
After chatting for a few minutes, the two went back.
After leaving Yikun Palace, the Crown Princess's face suddenly turned bad. "It seems that we don't have much time left. It has been so long and there is no news from His Majesty. I am afraid they have already controlled His Majesty?"
"If Concubine Zhang dares to reveal this news to us so openly, it means that this news has been known before. His Majesty may only return to the court in these few days. Your Majesty, how is the Crown Prince now?" Hu Shanxiang's mind was working frantically.
"Crown Prince... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should still be in the small court meeting now. Is there any problem?" The Crown Prince and the Crown Princess haven't seen each other much in the past few days, so she is not very clear about the current situation of the court.
"If they only controlled His Majesty, then the situation would not be too bad. But His Majesty has been controlled by them... and then they falsely passed the imperial edict to rebel. Now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is missing, so His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the only legitimate successor. Then Concubine Zhang and the others will definitely help them get rid of this threat..." Thinking of this, Hu Shanxiang didn't dare to continue.
"You have a point. Fortunately, they can't get involved in the East Palace. I will go to find His Highness now." The Crown Princess felt uneasy. Suddenly, she remembered, "The Zhang family of the East Palace is them..."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. In fact, the one that the Eastern Palace should worry about is not Concubine Zhang, but someone else..."
The Crown Princess was puzzled, "Another one?"
East Palace
After the Crown Princess came back, she immediately sent someone to find the Crown Prince.
"Send someone to wait in front. As soon as the prince comes out, ask him to come back to see me immediately." The Crown Princess' body and voice were still trembling, and she didn't even notice it.
"Don't panic, Your Majesty. Things haven't reached that point yet. We will have a chance." Hu Shanxiang said, holding her hand.
"Yes, I... I am..." The Crown Princess slowly calmed herself down.
Less than half an hour later, the prince came hurriedly.
"What happened? Why are you calling me here in such a hurry?" The prince was supported by someone and hurried in. He almost fell. Fortunately, the princess went over and supported him first.
"Your Highness, go slowly." The Crown Princess helped him sit down.
"Crown Princess, His Highness has returned, so I will leave first." Hu Shanxiang said goodbye.
"Okay, you've been tired these days, go back and have a good rest."
"Your Highness, Your Majesty, I will take my leave now."
The prince and his wife nodded in response.
After Hu Shanxiang left, the Crown Princess told the Crown Prince about what happened today and Hu Shanxiang's speculation. For a moment, the Crown Prince fell silent.
