His mother, at best, was naive, at worst, she was really stupid. Also, she was obviously the daughter of a wealthy family, but she made herself seem pitiful and inferior.
He didn't understand. Even if he was a step-sister, he was also the first wife. Why did he feel that he was inferior and had to compete with his eldest brother and his own mother?
In front of Xia Huafeng, he couldn't say anything, but his mother was competing with a dead man, which really left him speechless.
"If she makes things difficult for you, just get angry at her a few times and it will make her calm down for a few days."
Xia Huafeng: "..."
This is really a filial son!
But the problems now are not problems that embarrass him.
"The people in the palace have contacted the servants around my mother. Your people should not show their faces in front of her," he said.
Xia Junfeng was speechless for a while. He knew that the biggest problem was with his mother. Otherwise, he was worried that something would happen to his mother before.
"I have a bit of a headache." He raised his hand to hold his forehead and said.
"Just get through this for a while and you'll be fine."
Xia Huafeng advised him that these days, there are few people in Kyoto who are having an easy time, almost none.
Even ordinary people's homes would have officers and soldiers patrolling from time to time, fearing that the Third Prince and the others would hide in them, which had already made people panic.
"Ok, I know."
Xia Junfeng nodded, indicating that he understood.
"Any other news?"
He looked at Xia Huafeng, and the meaning of his words was very clear. If nothing happened, he would leave, and he would not be able to stay here for a long time.
"One more thing."
Xia Huafeng really had something to say, which was the real reason why his father asked him to come over to find Xia Junfeng.
"My father discovered that there were layers of guards outside the Qifeng Palace. Someone seemed to be living inside. My father suspected that it might be the Queen Mother." This is why he told Xia Junfeng before that it was still unknown whether the Queen Mother was dead.
.
But to Xia Junfeng's ears, it didn't sound like that.
Even if the Queen Mother is really not dead, she will not be hidden in the palace. After all, the Queen Mother supports her elder brother. If she is discovered hiding in the palace, it will cause big trouble for the old emperor.
"Brother, please go and investigate this matter. Well, the focus will be on people from the Shang Kingdom." He said.
"Shangguo?"
Xia Huafeng raised his eyebrows, not expecting him to say that.
Have people from the Shang Kingdom arrived in their Daqing Kingdom? Will the old emperor be so protective of an envoy from the Shang Kingdom who has always coveted their Daqing Kingdom?
"Prince Yi is saddened by Ning Yi?"
He immediately thought of this person, and he had also heard that this prince from the Shang Kingdom had been causing trouble for Prince Zhan Yun in Huayan Jueding.
Did he really come to Daqing and live in the palace?
"That means that the relationship between the Third Prince and Prince Zhan Yun is most likely leaked from his mouth?"
He had been wondering what went wrong before. His father thought it was Fu Ming's fault, but it turned out that the real fault was probably Shang Ningyi, King Yi of the Shang Kingdom, right?
His eyes dimmed. If Shang Ningyi was really responsible, he must be prevented from leaving Daqing this time!
I hate people who are willing to do all kinds of disgusting things for their own selfish interests, and Shang Ningyi is the most disgusting among them!
