After being married off, she was favored by the powerful official

Chapter 242 Paranoia

The Queen left Qiankun Palace worriedly, and seeing Mu Zhen in Fengyi Palace, she couldn't help but sigh, "This is the first time I've seen your father like this in all these years, it's obvious that he is really very sad this time.

There are three thousand beauties in the harem, but none of them is favored by your father. I originally thought that His Majesty was not interested in this, but now it seems that he has already had someone else in his heart."

Mu Zhen raised his eyes to look at the queen and suddenly asked, "Isn't your mother angry?"

The queen was stunned and asked in confusion: "Why should I be angry?"

"Because you are my father's legitimate wife, you have only known him for a short time and have accompanied him through the most difficult years.

But he didn't treat you well at all, and even let you be bullied by a concubine."

"Zhen'er!" The queen was horrified. "Do you know what you are saying? Walls have ears. You should be careful with your words!"

But the queen's cautious look hurt Mu Zhen. He was the crown prince of the State of Chen, and his mother was the most noble woman in the State of Chen.

But they have to be so careful when speaking in their own palace, how ironic.

But the queen didn't think so.

She was not born into a high-class family, and even if the empress dowager had not arranged for her to marry His Majesty, who was still a prince, she would not have had a better marriage.

They did live a cautious and difficult life for a few years after they got married, but at least they had enough food and clothing.

Although His Majesty took in many new wives after he ascended the throne, he also gave her enough respect and the dignity that her family deserved.

As for Concubine Jiang's arrogance and domineering behavior, she would not blame him.

Because she knew that the Jiang family was so powerful that even the emperor would have to give way to it, let alone her, a queen with power but no real power.

"Zhen'er, how many men in the world don't have three wives and four concubines, let alone the ruler of a country.

He did not favor his concubine over his wife, nor did he treat us mother and son badly.

Even if he has someone in his heart, it is not a fault.”

The two of them were originally in a blind marriage, which was forced upon them by the Queen Mother.

It's understandable that he doesn't love himself.

Mu Zhen sneered and pursed his lips, "Mother, what do you mean by poor treatment?

You are his first wife, and I am his legitimate son, but do you think our father has really considered us?"

Making him the crown prince was only to create a balance between Prince Yu and Prince Heng, and also because everyone knew that he would not live long.

If his father was willing to protect him like he protected Mu Chen, perhaps he would not have been poisoned and ended up like this today!

Mu Zhen stood up, his tone cold, "This position of crown prince has not brought me any glory, but instead reminds me all the time that I am a joke."

The queen stared at Mu Zhen in amazement, as if she was meeting her son for the first time, "Zhen'er, you..."

Mu Zhen's brows were gloomy. He was unwilling to be abandoned like this.

Even if he was dying, he would not watch those people stepping on his corpse and laughing.

He wants them all to share and taste his pain!

Mu Zhen stood up and walked away, leaving the queen with a stunned look on her face as she left the palace.

"Your Highness, where are you going?"

Mu Zhen concealed the cold light in his eyes and said calmly, "Go to Qingyun Marquis Mansion... No, go to Gu Jin's restaurant."

The time has come for Gu Jin to make this move.

At the same time, Gu Jin was in the Prince of Pingxi's mansion.

"Princess, are you and my mother old friends? Is she really Princess Xuanji of Zhao State?"

Princess Pingxi did not look surprised, but said with some relief: "You finally come to ask me."

She looked at Gu Jin gently, her eyes filled with reminiscence, "You really look like your mother, not only in appearance, but also in personality.

She was also so smart and courageous back then, caring about the world, and she was almost made the crown prince of Zhao State..."
