Episode 6

Xiao Dingquan and others knew that the new maid in Lu Wenxi's side courtyard was from King Zhao, so they asked Chang'an to help intercept the letters between the maid and King Zhao to find out the whereabouts of Lu Wenjin.When You Ming reported the situation to Xiao Dingquan, he mentioned by the way that Xu Changping was still in the palace, but Xiao Dingquan didn't even know when Xu Changping entered the palace.Xu Changping entered the palace this time to meet Gu Cairen. While Wang Weng and Xu Changping were waiting in Prince Lin, they talked about how Wang Weng had guessed that Xu Changping's identity was related to Prince Duo three years ago. They talked with Xu Changping about the relationship between the queen and Song Dynasty.Interesting things about my wife.Xu Changping asked Wang Weng to conceal his conversation with Gu Cairen from His Highness...

The next day, Lu Wenxi's personal maid Xixi was sent out of the palace under Wang Weng's arrangement on the grounds of being infected with the epidemic. In front of Princess Xie, Zhong Liangdi said that Lu Wenxi was heartless and unjust, and she also complained about Lu Wenxi.He was the only one favored by the prince.Princess Xie asked the sisters to leave it as they agreed, and prepared to attend the Queen's birthday and the fifth prince's wedding banquet. She lamented that the fifth prince was leaving Beijing after his wedding, and this was probably the last time he would attend his mother's birthday.Before the Queen's Qianqiu birthday, the Five Great Kings Xiao Dingkai made a special trip to see his mother, intending to ask her mother to use her life to prevent the marriage and keep him in the capital.Queen Zhao blamed herself for neglecting her son, saying that Xiao Dingkai was her life-saver, and she cried and asked Xiao Dingkai to go with her to the Qianqiu Banquet%.The Qianqiu banquet was peaceful with singing and dancing. The queen was very satisfied with the emperor's arrangement. She was very proud when she asked Xiao Dingkai to paint the beautiful scenery. However, when the emperor said that the five kings had caused a lot of trouble recently, her face became solemn.The queen secretly said that her son was useless and would only sit back and enjoy the success and be manipulated by others.

During the banquet, the five kings came to Lu Wenxi through the Sixth Prince, but they made no move and were not nervous about their marriage because he had backup plans.The queen dismissed the banquet because she was too tired. She cried while looking at the gorgeous fireworks and promised to let the five kings stay.In the middle of the night, Wang Weng hurriedly came to tell Xiao Dingquan that the queen died. Everyone was shocked. Wang Weng's hands were shaking in shock. Lu Wenxi took over Wang Weng's work and helped Xiao Dingquan change into plain clothes. Lu Wenxi was a little worried.Unable to stop the situation, Xiao Dingquan asked Lu Wenxi to wait for his return at home.The emperor's personal father-in-law Chen Changshi knew that Jiang Shanggong was responsible again, because Jiang Shanggong was present when Princess Ningguo died, and Jiang Shanggong was also present when the queen died. He asked Jiang Shanggong not to instigate the originally innocent Xiao Dingkai.He told Jiang Shanggong that the emperor already knew that the cause of the queen's death was swallowing gold alive, and that the return of Prince Guangchuan to the capital to pay filial piety would lead to bloodshed in the city. He warned Jiang Shanggong that it was wishful thinking to be able to manipulate the fifth prince all the time.In the evening, Xiao Dingquan was also sobering up and relieving his worries about the prince of Guangchuan County returning to Beijing to pay filial piety. Wang Weng looked at the prince's belt that Xiao Dingquan took off and thought deeply, but he did not tell Xiao Dingquan the secret hidden in his heart.

In the early morning of the next day, Chen Changshi rushed to the East Palace and ordered the emperor to ban his feet and prevent Xiao Dingquan from going to the morning court. The reason was that Xu Changping often went to the East Palace and colluded with the Jingwei and was impeached by the imperial censor.Xiao Dingquan quickly asked You Ming to send Xu Changping out of the city, but Xu Changping was still in the Prince's Forest in the East Palace.Xiao Dingquan wanted to question him, but Xu Changping said that it had nothing to do with him and that he did it himself.Xu Changping is the unrecognized cousin of the chief secretary of Zhanshi Mansion in the East Palace and the crown prince Xiao Dingquan. He is also the driving force behind the frame-up of the crown prince in the Chunwei case and the court trial case.Because of the grudges between his parents, he repeatedly framed the prince. After a trip back to his hometown, he learned from his mother that Xiao Dingquan's biological mother was his mother's savior.Xu Changping, who had mixed feelings, wanted to make up for his mistakes. In the nursery rhyme case, he used the mouth of Lu Wenxi, whose pseudonym was Gu Sese, to remind Xiao Dingquan that Xiao Dingquan's uncle Gu Silin was the initiator of the nursery rhyme case.Xiao Dingquan was very puzzled that Xu Changping betrayed him in the Chunwei case, but then helped him in the nursery rhyme case. He didn't know what his purpose was.

When Xiao Dingquan asked Xu Changping the reason, Xu Changping said nothing, and Xiao Dingquan punished him by not being able to eat until he told him.Prince Zhao secretly sneaked into the East Palace under the orders of Xiao Dingkai and told Lu Wenxi that Xiao Dingkai would help Lu Wenxi take care of her younger brother Lu Wenjin in Changzhou.Xiao Dingkai also entrusted his commander and sent a message to Lu Wenxi, telling Lu Wenxi that he could escape from the East Palace through the back door of the Lu Mansion, so that Lu Wenxi would not reveal his identity and report to Guangchuan County, so that Xiao Dingkai's crime of deceiving the emperor would be confirmed.When Changhe walked out of Lu Wenxi's room, he happened to be bumped into by Xiao Dingquan. Xiao Dingquan knew that people from Guangchuan County were looking for Lu Wenxi, so he pretended to care about Lu Wenxi without knowing it, and thoughtfully fed Lu Wenxi porridge.Wenxi wanted the unhappy Lu Wenxi to tell him the difficulties.Lu Wenxi thought about Changhe's warning but did not tell Xiao Dingquan what he was thinking.Seeing that he couldn't find out, Xiao Dingquan didn't force it. He hugged Lu Wenxi and said that no matter what it was, he just hoped that Lu Wenxi would get better. He still had many things to do with Lu Wenxi.

Xu Changping couldn't stand the hunger but confessed the truth to Xiao Dingquan, saying that his mother was the maid beside Xiao Dingquan's mother. Xiao Dingquan invited Wang Weng, an old man in the palace, to confront Xu Changping.Xu Changping said that his mother's surname was Song, and that his mother served the late empress when she was still in Prince Xiao's palace. His mother became pregnant out of wedlock in the palace, and the first empress helped take care of his mother and helped cover up the situation when she was sent out of the palace.Wang Weng recalled his wife named Song, but when he thought about it, he left the palace with Jiang Shanggong.Xu Pingchang went on to add that his mother became delirious when she returned to Yuezhou to serve as the Xu family's aunt and practice Buddhist temple.That's why Xu Pingchang said that before he returned home, he misunderstood that the late empress was the one who harmed his mother, so he colluded with Li Baizhou. Later, he learned that the late empress was his benefactor and changed his ways.After Xu Pingchang explained to himself, he pretended to be hungry and fainted.In fact, Xu Pingchang also concealed some facts from Xiao Dingquan, that is, his father was the elder brother of the current emperor.After repenting, he just wanted to stay with Xiao Dingquan and help Xiao Dingquan fulfill He Qinghaiyan's ideal. He hoped that Xiao Dingquan could forgive him when he learned the truth in the future.
