Speaking up to this point, Emperor Hao sighed.
He was a little worried that his son would not be able to keep Da Ling together.
He only had one son… Although there was another child coming, he did not know if it was a boy or a girl. He would only know after she gave birth…
He was looking forward to the Empress having another son..
Prince Qing comforted him, “The Crown Prince is still young. He needs time to learn. You don’t have to worry too much.”
Emperor Hao nodded. “Fortunately, he is still young. I can still support him for many years to come. Otherwise, I would be even more worried.”
“It seems that you never thought of letting the Second Prince inherit your throne.” Prince Qing smiled. “l heard that the Second Price is very intelligent.”
Although he was a prince and shouldn’t say such things, it was taboo. However, his relationship with his brother was so good that his brother wouldn’t mind.
Emperor Hao opened his mouth and subconsciously wanted to refute the ties with the Second Prince but because of his mother’s words, he swallowed those words back into his stomach.
Previously, his younger brother only wanted to travel around. He and his mother also doted on his younger brother and did not want to let his younger brother worry about anything. Therefore, he did not tell his younger brother about the years of planning and dramatic events that happened.
In the past, as long as his younger brother asked, he would answer truthfully. Yet, his younger brother had never asked anything.
Now that his younger brother was willing to help him, he really wanted to tell his brother the truth. However, his mother said to be weary…
No matter who it was, he had to stay vigilant…
Emperor Hao sighed in his heart, feeling a little sorry for his younger brother. Then, he smiled and said, “There’s a difference between the both of them. You know how it is with who comes first and what not.’
He was implying that Prince Yi would never inherit the throne.
Prince Qing nodded, indicating that he understood.
He sighed in his heart.
Ji Yi, which was Consort Yi, was someone he had always hidden in his heart and had never told anyone about.
He had liked Ji Yi since he was young but no one knew about this.
However, Ji Yi couldn’t see him as he wasn’t the Emperor.
Ji Yi definitely hoped that Prince Yi would become the Emperor, but his brother had always believed that there was a difference between the direct descendants and the son’s from a concubine. Now that the Crown Prince was back, it would be even more difficult for Ji Yi’s son to become the Emperor.
When the Empress said that the Crown Prince’s disappearance was Ji Yi’s doing, he actually believed it. After entering the harem, who wouldn’t want their own offspring to be the Emperor. With the Crown Prince gone, the biggest beneficiary was Ji Yi’s son, the Second Prince Prince Yi.
He used to come back often, but ever since he found out that Ji Yi was pregnant and was taken into the palace by his brother as a concubine, he rarely came back.
Even if he came back, he would avoid Ji Yi as he still had feelings for her.
He didn’t know why, but he just couldn’t forget.
Unknowingly, Emperor Hao and Prince Qing had arrived at the place where the princes studied in the palace. Coincidentally, the Grand Tutor had just finished teaching the first lesson in the afternoon and was letting them rest.
There were only two princes in the palace, Wei Zizhan and Prince Yi. They were both being taught by the Grand Tutor.
This Grand Tutor had taught Emperor Hao before and also taught Emperor Hao’s father, so he was naturally also the soon-to- be Emperor’s teacher.
After class, the Grand Tutor came out. He met Emperor Hao and bowed..
