Chapter 434: Unbelief

Qin Hanzhen had heard that the attitude of the crown princess Tang towards Zhao Mo had changed subtly, and he didn't think there was anything at first, and he even thought in his heart that anyway, Zhao Mo didn't plan to recognize the crown princess Tang as his mother, so it was not a bad thing for them to be estranged.

But if this change in attitude is because the crown princess Tang listened to other people's slander and had an adverse impact on Zhao Mo, it would be another matter.

The crown princess is the prince's wife, and she also has a daughter for the prince, who is the prince's only child now, the lord of Minshun. In addition, in the past few decades, the crown princess's maiden family has been unswervingly supporting the East Palace, no matter how much the outside world has made a fuss about the royal heir, they have never changed their position, and the prince has always respected the crown princess. As long as it is the opinion of the crown princess, he will not ignore it. Although Chen Liangdi once had the credit of giving birth to the emperor and grandson, and she never gave up on the prince, because she was not as respectful to the princess as she was in the past, the prince snubbed her. This shows the status of the crown princess in the prince's mind.

If such a noble person has a bad impression of Zhao Mo, it is definitely not a good thing.

Taking 10,000 steps back, the crown princess Tang may not have any bad feelings about Zhao Mo, but as long as she is influenced by the princess of Shu, she may be led by the nose of the prince of Shu, which is a great disadvantage to the East Palace.

After listening to Qin Hanzhen's words, Zhao Mo didn't need her to analyze it in detail, he thought of this layer. His face changed slightly, and he said solemnly: "I don't know if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is aware of it." I should have been reminded. ”

Qin Hanzhen asked him: "Can you say it?" I'm afraid it's inconvenient to speak directly, right?"

Zhao Mo smiled bitterly: "It's really inconvenient to say it directly, so I can only remind you in another way." ”

Although Zhao Mo is close to the royal family, he is extremely cautious in many cases, which may be related to the prince's intention to succeed him as his heir, and he himself has no intention of doing so. But with Zhao Mo's background and identity, it is indeed inconvenient to get too involved in the internal affairs of the royal family. The crown princess Tang was a little cold to him, so he went to tell the prince that she might have listened to the slander of the prince of Shu, which sounded more like he was slandering. Even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince trusts him again, there are still some things he can't do. It's just that the stakes are very high, and for his own selfish interests, he conceals important news and doesn't report it, and he can't pass his own level.

So he changed his words, and vaguely asked about his previous calculations when he met the crown prince in Jin: "My nephew got a trap box at His Royal Highness, and it stands to reason that outsiders will not know." The prince of Shu may have heard the news from the mouth of the attendant in the East Palace, but it is also possible that he found out something from his nephew's servants. His Highness said that day that he would investigate in detail, but I don't know if the results can be found?"

The prince smiled faintly: "I found a chamberlain, who is familiar with the prince of Shu on weekdays, and often gets some rewards from him." However, the chamberlain said that he was just revealing some inconsequential news, even if he didn't say it, it would take less than two days for the prince of Shu to find out in the palace. He won't reveal a word of the really important news. I don't know if this is true or not, and the horizontal and vertical people have already dealt with it according to the rules. As for your home, it must be fine. The news leaked from the East Palace. No matter how powerful the prince of Shu is, it is impossible for him to put his hand into your courtyard. ”

Most of the subordinates and guards used by Zhao Mo in the capital mansion, except for the servants given by the Wen family when he was down, and the companion room of his deceased mother, were summoned from the fiefdom Suning, with names and surnames, and backgrounds, all of which were descendants of old families who had settled in the local area for more than 30 years. Unless the prince of Shu had a way to predict today's scene thirty years ago and send people to settle in Suning County in advance, there would be no way to intervene in it. And thirty years ago, the prince of Shu was not even born, which of course was impossible. In terms of tight-mouthedness, the palace of Suning County where Zhao Mo lives may be stronger than the East Palace. There are also chamberlains and palace people in the East Palace who leak the news to the outside world because they are greedy for money.

The prince trusted the people in Zhao Mo's mansion enough, so he generously admitted that it was his side that leaked the news. However, considering that the consequences are not very serious, it is just that the king of Shanyang lost his life, and the Beirong spies are all dead, and those who are caught are caught, so the prince does not care very much.

But Zhao Mo was not only concerned about this: "Is there only this one servant?" The nephew is a little worried...... If it is said that the prince of Shu inquired about his nephew's news from the East Palace, he only relied on this one servant, and it was enough. But he trapped his nephew for the position of the emperor's heir, where did he get his self-confidence, thinking that as long as he destroyed his nephew's holy family in front of the emperor and His Royal Highness, he could let his son replace him? Although the prince of Shu was too bold and ambitious, he was not a stupid person. He would have thought like that, and he should have something to rely on. ”

The crown prince raised his eyebrows, carefully thinking about the situation up and down the East Palace, and his face gradually became difficult to see.

When Zhao Mo saw him like this, he knew that he might have thought of something, and he didn't say much, and mentioned another thing: "I heard that the Queen Mother sent the grandson of the King of Shu out of the palace?

The prince was thinking about things, and replied a little absent-mindedly: "The heart of the prince of Shu is big, mostly because his son is looked at differently by the queen mother. The Queen Mother is wise and will not give him another chance to delusion. Although the grandson of the King of Shu is not in good health, he is not sick and weak compared to children of the same age. The Queen Mother left him to live in the palace for a long time, but it was for the sake of the small county lord. The Queen Mother felt sorry for the little county lord, and was reluctant to let her go back to her parents, and when she saw that she missed her relatives, she summoned her brother into the palace to be her companion. This was not in accordance with the rules, but the father respected the queen mother and acted exceptionally. Now the little county lord is used to living away from his parents, and as he gets older, he no longer cries at every turn. Since the princess of the king of Shu is seriously ill, it is natural to let the grandson of the king of Shu go back to serve the sick. This is filial piety. ”

If it weren't for the fact that the little county lord had an accident in Cining Palace and was disabled, the queen mother felt sorry for the child, but also felt that she was responsible for the little county lord's disability, maybe even the little county lord would have been sent home. But a little girl who is not good at walking, stays and stays. The prince of Shu will not have any delusions because of the special treatment his daughter receives. The little county lord is different from her brother.

Zhao Mo smiled when he heard this: "That's fine." The princess of Shu was so sad that her condition worsened because of the matter between the prince of Shu and Chen's daughter, and she even came to the palace less, and she had fewer opportunities to see her children. Now that the grandson of the king of Shu has gone home to serve the sick, the princess can see her own son every day, and she must be able to get comfort, right? Otherwise, she will continue to drag her sick body like this, crying everywhere that the prince of Shu has an affair with someone, and the prince of Shu will definitely have a headache. ”

The prince's face changed slightly, thoughtfully.

In the past few days, the death of the king of Shanyang and the behavior of the prince of Shu have attracted attention, and the prince did not remember the details of the Beirong people's forgery of letters to frame Zhao Mo for a while, and he also forgot whether there was any problem with the friendship between the crown princess Tang and the princess of Shu. Now that he has discovered the true face of the prince of Shu, and then looks back at the so-called scandal, the prince feels that something is wrong. With the temper of the prince of Shu, can he tolerate his wife ruining his reputation outside? Even if he wants to pretend to be a gentle gentleman, he doesn't need to pretend anymore when he returns home, and he can't let the princess of Shu get so many opportunities to go out.

Unless he did it on purpose.

So what is his purpose?

Although the crown prince did not guess the general plan of the prince of Shu based on Zhao Mo's life experience like Zhao Mo and Qin Hanzhen, he also vaguely sensed the inside story. He sneered at first, and then immediately thought that the Crown Princess Tang Clan might have been affected.

There are some things that Zhao Mo doesn't know, so he can easily go straight to the essence of things and not be easily misled by other things.

But the prince is different. When he informed the crown princess of the truth that the prince of Shu had a problem and was responsible for the death of the king of Shanyang, the reaction of the crown princess Tang was a little different from what he expected.

The crown princess had a bad impression of the prince of Shu, and her first sentence was a sneer: "The villain who hides the traitor! The concubine has long known that he is not a righteous gentleman!"

She believed that the prince of Shu would plot to kill the king of Shanyang because of old grudges, but when it came to the prince of Shu who had delusions about the position of the emperor's heir, she did not believe it: "Has Your Highness misunderstood? How could the prince of Shu want to pass his only son to the East Palace? When the princess of Shu cried in front of the concubine that day, she did mention that in case something happened to her in the future, the prince of Shu married another newcomer and treated her children harshly, so she asked the concubine to be the master and succeeded the grandson of the king of Shu. No matter which family in the clan she inherits, she just wants her children to be safe and prosperous for the rest of their lives, and that's enough. If the prince of Shu has the position of heir, how could the princess of the king of Shu make such a request? His Royal Highness must be mistaken!"

The crown princess Tang was very confident in her judgment, but the prince also hesitated. He also doubted that there was indeed a contradiction between the princess of Shu and the prince of Shu, the two had different ideas, and the princess of Shu hoped that her son could get rid of the control of the prince of Shu?

But now that he listened to Zhao Mo's reminder, he couldn't be sure again. God knows whether the princess of Shu disagreed with her husband before she said that she wanted to pass on her son to other families in the clan, or whether she deliberately deceived the princess at the behest of her husband? Now looking at the princess's trust in the princess of Shu, we know that this method is still very effective. The prince himself said that the prince of Shu had a plot for the throne of the emperor, but the princess still refused to believe it. If it were anything else, she would never refute the prince.

The crown prince's expression was faint, and his expression was unprecedentedly serious: "If there is only one princess of the King of Shu, it is impossible to affect the crown princess to this point." The crown princess is not a person who has not experienced wind and rain, and she will not be easily moved. In the backyard of the East Palace, I am afraid that there are still the eyes and ears of the prince of Shu!"
