Wei Zeyin closed his eyes for a moment, and opened them again, his eyes flashing with calmness and suspicion.

"The crown prince is the prince, the next emperor, and the future lord of the world. The status is precious, the future is vast, and the responsibility is also great. However, Erchen was very puzzled in his heart, and hoped that his father could solve his doubts. ”

Every word seemed to be squeezed out between the teeth, with a bit of doubt.

When the emperor heard this, his back couldn't help but straighten, and even his face was very solemn.

"What do you have doubts? can make you in the position of the prince, so insistent that you don't want to succeed to the position of the prince. Third child, I chose you from many princes, and I don't think you really have the ability to be an emperor, but I believe that if you can be a prince in your future studies, you will naturally be able to be qualified for the position of emperor. I have high hopes for you! ”

In the last few sentences, the emperor glanced at Wei Zeyin, who had clear water chestnuts and a handsome complexion, and a complex emotion slowly spread in his heart, and after a while, it turned into a light sigh.

"I've always had high hopes for you, but there was a fifth child before who made me neglect you. But that hope for you has never diminished, but it has been hidden deeply. Now let the ministers recommend the crown prince, you are expected to return, I recognize the people they recommend, in addition to your ability, more importantly, I also recognize you in my heart. Are you really going to let me down? ”

Every word is like a father's greatest expectation for his son.

If it is a son who has not been loved by his father since he was a child, he will naturally be ecstatic.

But Wei Zeyin has long recognized that the emperor is the most ruthless, and at the same time, he also believes that his favorite children are Wei Yechen and Wei Yi.

Everything the emperor said to him now was just a test of him.

An inexplicable sense of sadness rose in Wei Zeyin's heart, and then, he did not hide it on his face, and directly revealed this sadness, looking at the emperor with fixed eyes.

It wasn't until the emperor didn't know what he thought of and his face sank that he said leisurely: "Father, the mother concubine entered your backyard back then, followed you into the palace, and became a concubine, do you have any sincerity for her?" My mother was poisoned to death by the Queen Mother, do you know it? ”

The emperor's heart jumped, but his face remained the same, "I only found out about your mother's concubine later." ”

Wei Zeyin pulled the corners of his mouth coldly, and asked in a resolute tone: "Father, what about your sincerity to your mother?" I heard a rumor, that is, Mrs. Yurong has been favored for so many years, and even brought the fifth child to you to look at you differently, all because Mrs. Yurong and my mother are somewhat similar. ”

"Father, I want to know if everything they have gotten between their mother and son over the years is what they deserve, or if it's all because of the guilt in your heart. Or maybe my mother concubine only entered this harem because of Mrs. Yurong from beginning to end, and ended up in such a fate. ”

This sentence carried a bit of persecutive questioning, and even the bruises on his forehead burst out, as if this matter had been in his heart for a long time, so that his whole person had a little bit of every word he said to the emperor, and he no longer dared to give a heart to trust.

"Or, my mother fell into your eyes and entered the harem to be a concubine, from beginning to end, it was just you to help the queen mother torture her."

"Shut up for me." The Emperor shouted coldly.

There was a touch of self-deprecation on the corner of Wei Zeyin's mouth, and a look of pain appeared on his face.

His tone was deep: "Erchen just wants to know the truth, if my father is unwilling to say it, and he doesn't want to ask again." Because the real culprit is completely gone, my mother will only be happier when she sees it in the spirit of heaven. At the same time, she didn't want me to be in some pain for the sake of a past. ”

The emperor clenched his fists, finally let go, and sighed softly: "The emperor can't have too many feelings. ”

"Then your preference for Mrs. Yurong for many years is not also a manifestation of affection." Wei Zeyin asked coldly.

The emperor was silent, Wei Zeyin already knew what happened back then, and the emperor knew it from beginning to end, even the death of Concubine Xiang......

Wei Zeyin smiled: "Father, you are the emperor who is high, and your son is just your son, even if you don't agree with many things." The sons and daughters did not dare to disobey, but only obeyed orders. ”

After finishing speaking, he arched his hand at the emperor, and then said with a smile: "Since my father has such expectations for his sons, then the ministers should follow my father's side and learn how to be a prince!" ”

The Emperor's lips moved, but at last he waved him away.

When the person left completely, his whole look was a little decadent.

"After so many years, I thought that feeling had completely disappeared, and I had completely thrown away those useless feelings, but I didn't expect that in the face of him, I still had a little timidity."

The emperor smiled bitterly, and the great eunuch who was serving beside him was very distressed when he heard this.

He couldn't help but comfort: "Your Majesty, everything has passed, you don't have to indulge in the past, as for His Royal Highness King Qin, how can you believe that one day he will understand Your Majesty." ”

The emperor stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, and said coldly: "I know very well in my heart, how did Concubine Xiang die in the first place? How was the third child poisoned? For so many years, because of guilt, I gave all the compensation to another mother and son, so that their ambitions increased, and even communicated with foreign thieves in a vain attempt to overthrow the dynasty. ”

Speaking of this, the emperor narrowed his eyes dangerously, and finally got up directly and went to Concubine Jiang Shu, and asked in a cold voice: "For so many years, the third child, as the king of Qin, has not participated in the major affairs of the court......"

After a pause, he directly asked the key point: "Why did the third child investigate the affairs of Concubine Xiang back then?" Why do you know that Yurong and Concubine Xiang are somewhat similar. ”

Concubine Jiang Shu was slightly frightened, but her face did not show a little, but she looked at the emperor with a cold face in surprise, and frowned: "The emperor came here today for the concubine." To be honest, the concubine was also very surprised, why did the emperor ask this? Concubine Xiang and Mrs. Yurong look similar, which is not something that the old people in the palace know. ”

"But because your love for her is too grand, even many old people avoid her. We all think that Concubine Xiang is just a stand-in for Mrs. Yurong. ”

At this point, Concubine Jiang lowered her eyes, her eyelashes trembled slightly, covering the coldness at the bottom of her eyes.

"Although King Qin was young, he walked in that small palace with Concubine Xiang, and the mother and son depended on each other for a few years, and then Concubine Xiang went, and King Qin was poisoned again and his eyes were blind. But King Qin's eyes are better, and on top of the palace banquet, he looked at Mrs. Yurong again, combined with the rumors in the harem, can't he be sure that he is just a stand-in for Mrs. Yurong? ”
