“Yes.” The Third Prince replied.
“I still have things to do, so i’ll leave first.” Then, he retracted his gaze and quickly turned around to leave.
“I have something to do too. Goodbye.” Then, the Seventh Prince also bowed to the Fifth Prince.
He turned around and left.
The Fifth Prince stretched out his hand and subconsciously wanted to stop the two of them.
But he didn’t say anything.
“Hmph, all of you want to see him make a fool of himself. In the end, they only feel sadness.”
Muttering to himself, the Fifth Prince also flicked his sleeves.
“Return!” With that, he left.
Prince Anyang’s convoy continued to move forward. After a while, they met another person who came to send them off.
It was the Imperial Consort, his mother.
At this moment, Her Highness held onto the Prince Anyang’s arm and sobbed.
“Your Father…how ruthless.”
When Prince Anyang saw his mother crying, his heart ached.
“Please don’t cry.” He quickly comforted her.
“Anyang County is rich in resources and is a good place. 1 will have peace there.”
“Moreover, 1 did it on purpose.” Prince Anyang hesitated for a moment before speaking.
The Imperial Consort was stunned and looked up at her son in disbelief.
A bitter smile appeared on Prince Anyang’s face.
“Father is becoming more and more suspicious of me. Third Brother, Fifth Brother, and Seventh Brother are also attacking me. If I don’t leave, something will happen sooner or later.”
He was the eldest son, and his mother’s status was very high. He was the most qualified person to become the Crown Prince.
Unfortunately, his father had no intention of appointing a crown prince.
The more outstanding he was, the more he annoyed him.
As for his brothers, they had joined forces to target him. If this continued, his father would make a move on him sooner or later.
When that time came, what awaited him might be worse.
After all, that’s what happened to his second brother.
The Imperial Consort was stunned.
Then, a pained expression appeared on her face.
She wanted to comfort her son, but she didn’t say a word.
However, when she heard his son say that he was leaving voluntarily, the uneasiness in her heart faded quite a bit.
“Your father…forget it, you’ll be fine after at Anyang County. Remember to write to me.” The Imperial Consort patted the back of Prince Anyang’s hand and said with some heartache.
She understood her son’s thoughts.
But after leaving the capital, it was not so easy to return.
She would probably never see her son again in this lifetime.
How could she not be heartbroken?
“Yes! Don’t worry. Anyang County is only four or five days away from the capital. I will definitely write to you.”
The Imperial Consort nodded and continued to hold his hand, refusing to let go-
Seeing the look on her face, Prince Anyang understood.
Then, he asked Liang Yu to take the Princess of Anyang and his daughter away.
When only she and her son were left in the pavilion, the Imperial Consort sat down beside him.
“Tell me honestly, why did you suddenly volunteer to leave?” The imperial Consort asked her son.
This was too sudden.
She understood her son. Even if he made such a decision, he would inform her beforehand.
But not this time.
His son was not a muddle-headed person. There must be a reason he made such a decision.
However, she did not know what that was.
Prince Anyang was stunned.
Then, with a serious expression, he looked around.
After making sure that the people around them were far away and that no one could hear their conversation, he told her the truth.
“What? The Ninth Prince and Nangong Xiao are still alive?” The Imperial Consort was shocked and cried out in a low voice.
She had heard it with her own ears. The Emperor told Consort Shu that they found their corpses.
Consort Shu had even personally confirmed the ident.i.ties of the two corpses in front of the Emperor.
At that time, she cried so bitterly that she fainted. It didn’t look like it was fake.
Because of this, she instructed the palace maids to take care of Consort Shu more.
So, was she actually acting? To deceive the Emperor?
Consort Shu, who looked weak and gentle, actually had such ability?
Yes, she did not believe that a mother would not be able to recognize her son.
Also, Consort Shu had always been close to her younger brother. Nominally, he was her G.o.dbrother, but in reality, she knew that Nangong Xiao was Consort Shu’s biological brother.
There was a high chance that Consort Shu would recognize him.
Therefore, she must be acting, so that the Emperor would think that the Ninth Prince and Nangong Xiao were dead..
