Meng Nan naturally knew in his heart. So his original good mood and bright sunshine eyes were immediately covered by the haze.
It has been more than three years since they got married, and his dislike for Princess Yiping has only deepened, not diminished in the slightest.
That woman, who looked docile and elegant on the outside, was a full-fledged cunning woman, savage and unreasonable, acting arrogant and domineering. Her mother fainted several times in anger.
He didn’t want to see her at all, but that was the Meng Family Mansion, his home. Why he doesn’t go back? If there was someone to leave, it should be that, not him.
However, that woman, even if he haven’t consummated with her in these three years, could bear it. She never mentions divorce. He mentioned it, but she ignored it.
“Go back!” Meng Nan sighed.
As soon as he got home, the housekeeper led him to the study.
“Father, you’re looking for me?” Meng Nan bowed to his father, then sat down.
Master Meng opened his closed eyes and his eyes fell on Meng Nan, with a strange expression on his face.
“What’s wrong with father? What’s the matter?” Meng Nan looked at his father in confusion. He was acting weird today, and there was an inexplicable excitement in his eyes.
What’s there to get excited about?
“The Ninth Prince has been found.” Master Meng said suddenly.
Meng Nan was also overjoyed: “You found him? That’s great, the imperial concubine must be very happy.”
Master Meng nodded: “Yes, she is indeed very happy, I just came back from the palace.”
“You two already met? Is Ninth Prince okay?” Meng Nan asked.
“Except for the poor mental health and a few bruises on his body, there is nothing else. He is alright.” Master Meng slowly said.
When Master Meng spoke, his eyes were always on him, and he still had that vaguely excited look.
Seeing him like this, Meng Nan hurriedly asked: “What’s wrong with father? Why do you look at me like this?”
Master Meng finally looked away and said to Jin Shiwei: “You step back first, close the door, and don’t let anyone approach here.”
Jin Shiwei hurriedly backed out and closed the door of the study, but his ears perked up involuntarily.
For so many years, the master has never avoided him in matters related to the young master. What could have happened that he even wants to avoid him today?
In the study, Master Meng got up and went to the window, leaning over to look out. After making sure that there was no one on the left or right under the window, he closed the window and went back to sit beside Meng Nan.
Meng Nan became more and more curious. What happened to his father today? He was so strange.
“Nan’er, do you know what the imperial concubine told me today?” Master Meng’s voice trembled when she spoke.
Meng Nan shook his head: “I can’t guess that.” Imperial Concubine Meng rarely called his father into the palace, but he was summoned today, what happened?
Master Meng lowered his voice and moved his lips to Meng Nan’s ear, “The imperial concubine said that the emperor intends to abdicate and take the throne, but the emperor has no children. Although the supreme emperor had many heirs, the emperor still prefers the Ninth Prince.”
Meng Nan’s eyes widened in shock: “The Ninth Prince? But the Ninth Prince is only a little older, how can he be the emperor?”
“Why not? The dragon robe is tailor-made, and the dragon chair can be climbed or lie down.” Seeing his dull face, Master Meng said again: “Do you know how old the Supreme Emperor was when he ascended the throne?”
Meng Nan said, “11 years old.”
“That’s right, he is 11. Although he is much older than the Ninth Prince, he still became the emperor even though he knows nothing. At that time, the power of the government was in the hands of Dongfang Mu. Dongfang Mu was in charge for 8 years, that is why he has such influence in the court even up today.”
