The fourth elder brother had a very low presence in the harem, and it was not until Zhen Huan returned to the palace that the two relayed each other to become the heirs to the throne.
Before that, no one in the palace wanted to see him, but the fourth elder brother's food, clothing, housing and transportation were not neglected. He has no mother, and having a father is equivalent to not having a father. But he has never been cautious and thoughtful, knows how to please adults, and also has his own life plan, definitely not like a child who grew up without a father or mother. So who is taking care of him behind his back?
First: to exclude the emperor first.
The emperor loves face very much, and everything that conflicts with his face is kept in mind even if he doesn't say it on the surface. The reason why the emperor didn't like the child of the fourth elder brother was because the birth of the fourth elder brother hurt his face. Back then, the emperor was frustrated because of that time, and the life was not smooth, and he had this child in the process of using wine to relieve his sorrows. The fourth elder brother's biological mother is not beautiful, and her status is also low, which makes it seem that the emperor is hungry and does not choose to eat, which will lose his face.
Although having a child is a scandal, every time I see the fourth elder brother, I think of my unbearable past, which is equivalent to revealing my scars, and I don't want to mention it again. In addition, the emperor is cold by nature, not to mention that he doesn't like this child, and the people he likes in the harem are not single-minded, once he doesn't like it, he will immediately throw it away. An Lingrong has been with her for so many years, in order to please Zhen Huan, the emperor is also willing to give An Lingrong a bird name. Therefore, the emperor didn't pay attention to the fourth elder brother, and directly raised him far away, out of sight.
Therefore, it is impossible for the emperor to take care of the fourth elder brother secretly, and he has no leisure.
Second: Secondly, it is impossible for the queen to take care of the fourth elder brother.
It stands to reason that no matter how bad the fourth elder brother is, he is also the son of the emperor, and the queen, as the mother in law and the head of the first palace, should also take care of the fourth elder brother. But the queen doesn't like other people's children, unless she gives birth to herself, no one can give birth to her, and her own nephew born to her sister was also killed by the queen.
In addition to liking calligraphy all her life, the queen also doesn't like the emperor's own son. Once Jian Qiu proposed to her that you have no children, it is impossible to give birth, and the emperor will not come, it is better to adopt the fourth elder brother, she has no own mother, and she is wholeheartedly with you. But the queen refused, because the emperor didn't like the fourth elder brother, and the queen didn't want to upset the emperor because of the fourth elder brother.
But the more obvious evidence is that the queen was worried about the rise of Zhen Huan's power and was also worried that the fourth elder brother would rob the third elder brother of the throne, so she wanted to kill the fourth elder brother. As a result, the fourth elder brother didn't eat poisonous food and picked up a life.
Therefore, for the queen, she would like to take the life of the fourth elder brother, how could she take care of the fourth elder brother behind her back?
Excluding the emperor and queen, it is the queen mother who is really capable of taking care of the fourth elder brother in the harem. The fourth elder brother must be the emperor's own child, no matter what his background is, he is the queen mother's own grandson. The queen is special, and the queen mother is also angry, and she once deliberately punished the queen for thinking at the gate of the temple, which is also a punishment for her **.
For the Queen Mother, no matter how humble the fourth brother is, and no matter who his mother is, the fourth elder brother is his own grandson, and he has the idea of protection.
Zhen Huan returned to the palace, but in fact, the name was not right, so the emperor thought of a way to let Zhen Huan recognize the fourth elder brother as his son and Zhen Huan's biological mother. In fact, this matter is very ridiculous, the age difference between the two is large, in fact, it is the practice of covering up their ears and stealing the bell, but as the queen mother, she didn't stop it, in fact, she just wanted the fourth elder brother to have an adoptive mother to protect him.
The most important clue is that when the fourth elder brother was poisoned by the queen but not poisoned, the fourth elder brother cried and ran to the queen mother for help, and the queen mother decided to take him in, protect him, and let him live with him for a long time until Zhen Huan returned to the palace.
If there is no correspondence between the fourth child and the queen mother, will he go to his grandmother as soon as he encounters danger?If the Queen Mother has been ignoring the Fourth Elder Brother, and every time she asks to see him, she will block him back, and she will not see him like the queen, and the Fourth Elder Brother will not dare to go to the Queen Mother, and he will also wonder if this poison is under the Queen Mother?It shows that the fourth elder brother trusts the Queen Mother.
Although there is no biological mother and no father to take care of, the fourth elder brother is not crooked, and it is very in line with the growth characteristics of children in the palace. He gets along well with Zhen Huan's mother and son, and even what he said after becoming the emperor is also very in line with his identity, who helped him guide and cultivate this characteristic when he was a child?It must be someone of this ability and level in the harem, except for the emperor and empress, then it must be the queen mother.
