Reason told Yan Gui that the reason why the prince intended to facilitate the meeting between his father and Li Zhong, the envoy of Great Xia, must be because of ulterior motives, and Yan Gui couldn't tell what he meant for the time being.

For Li Zhong, the tenth prince, that is, Yan Zichu, once promoted him from a guard to the emperor, and then he had the opportunity to show his skills, which is a kindness that has been accumulated for fifteen years.

Even though both of them are no longer young, the long talk when they were young is still unforgettable.

Li Zhong stared at Yan Zichu, who was suppressed with excitement, and couldn't help but sigh: "You haven't been home for a long time. ”

Family? The cold palace? That sad place that has been staged for more than ten years and still has not stopped intriguing.

"Actually, I'm pretty good here."

"Really?"

"Yes."

Li Zhong glanced around and stopped at the prince's place for a while, "But you are not very peaceful here." ”

"After all, the family is in the Qi country, Your Majesty treats me very well, my wife, children and children are here, and the rest is not important."

The guests looked at this unusual conversation, and they felt a little awkward in their hearts, and they remembered it again, as if they were ...... After all, Master Attached Ma is a native of Daxia, not a native of Daqi.

Yan Gui came to his senses at this time, the prince wanted to take this opportunity to reiterate the fact that his father was from Great Xia, this was a plan to attack the heart!

So, what's next for him?

When Yan Gui was faintly worried, the Queen Mother said: "Today's banquet is almost over, you should clean up and go back, the mourning family is a little tired."

By the way, the prince, King Chen, and the eldest princess's family should stay, and the mourning family has something in their hearts that they want to talk to you. ”

Emperor Daqi felt that something was not right, and just wanted to open his mouth but suddenly had a headache, leaning back in his seat and unable to speak.

The Queen Mother glanced sideways and said, "The emperor is a little greedy today, he is drunk, he should rest early, the queen should help him to rest." ”

The queen is a simple and gentle character, she has always obeyed the words of the queen mother, and at this moment got up from the front of the case, supported the emperor of Daqi and a group of palace maids and eunuchs to leave.

Qi Wan'er walked over and clasped her father King Liang's hand, her eyes full of hidden worry.

King Liang also wants to get involved, after all, he has a friendship with his niece, but King Chen and His Majesty the Emperor are the flesh and blood of the Queen Mother, they are each other's brothers, and they are half-fathers, in fact, they are outsiders after all.

After a moment of silence, King Liang still didn't speak, because whatever he said was useless, and he pulled Qi Wan'er out of the main hall.

The guests quickly left the table, and for a while, only the eldest princess's family, King Chen, the crown prince, the queen mother, and a few palace maids were left in the spacious hall.

The eldest princess's heart jumped, and Rao is temperament was a little panicked, "Imperial grandmother, what do you mean?" ”

"It doesn't mean anything else, it's just that the mourning family is old, and Your Majesty's physical strength is not as good as before, so I should consider clearing the obstacles for our prince."

What clears the way? His own family will become an obstacle to the crown prince's accession to the throne in the future? Yan Gui was confused at the moment.

"Imperial Grandmother, why are you here?"

The Queen Mother's eyes closed slightly, "Don't worry, the mourning family doesn't want to fight and kill, as long as you attach Ma Ye's father and son back to the Xia Kingdom." ”

Yan Zichu understood at this time that all the previous plans of the prince and King Chen were probably for today.

The prince's expression was still indifferent, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, "Master Attached Ma, you are a Daxia man after all, and so is your son." ”

The eldest princess gritted her teeth and said, "Since the Qi Kingdom can't accommodate the family of the palace, then let's go." ”

King Chen smiled and added, "No, it's just that Master Attached and the Little County King are leaving, niece, you can stay in the Qi Kingdom." ”

"What if the palace refuses to stay?"

King Chen sneered, "Then it should be normal for them to have some kind of accident, right?" ”

"You ......"

The Queen Mother interrupted the eldest princess's words and said: "Okay, let's settle it, although Gui'er gave the mourning family a big gift, but what is personal affection in front of the country?"

Qin'er, don't go back today, you will spend one night in the mourning family's dormitory, and as for the father and son of the attached horse, you will go back with the Great Xia delegation tomorrow. ”

Yan Zichu suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "What if I refuse to go back? The Queen Mother is going to drive me away? ”

"Then you can try!"

Yan Zichu glanced at Yan Gui, and his shoulders trembled slightly: "One day, our father and son will return here!" ”

The prince said disapprerovingly: "Then we will wait." ”

All this happened so fast that Yan Gui didn't react at all, and he didn't have the slightest power to parry.

The mother's sobbing, the father's anger, Yan Hui clearly perceived all this, and could not forget.

The once kind Queen Mother has changed her face, becoming vicious and ugly, and Yan Gui even has a sense of disgust.

If everything could be done again, he would rather trample Zhu Xuancao to the ground than give it to the old woman to eat.

Yan Gui didn't know how he left the Longevity Palace, but he remembered that he was very embarrassed and embarrassed...... When leaving Changle Palace, Yan Gui, like his father, did not take a carriage, but walked step by step.

Yan Gui felt that he had walked for a long time before walking home, and his father was standing at the door like a walking corpse, so he also stood with his father like this, without saying a word.

It didn't take long for Yan Zichu to finally speak: "Child, just ask what you want to know, and your father will tell you everything." ”

"Why do the crown prince and King Chen want to harm our family?"

Yan Zichu smiled miserably: "Because His Majesty once said in front of several eunuchs that he wanted to abolish the prince and make you the prince, but what Your Majesty didn't expect was that some of those eunuchs were not strict, and the city was full of wind and rain. ”

Establish yourself as a prince? What international jokes? Just because he's the son of the eldest princess, and then a little witty?

"But how did King Chen get involved?"

Yan Zichu's eyes flashed slightly: "That has to start with a secret, which my father also heard from your mother."

The reason why King Chen spared no effort to support the crown prince was because the prince was his biological son! ”

Yan Gui was surprised: "Father, you didn't laugh. ”

Yan Zichu shook his head, "Today's saint was too romantic when he was a teenager, so that his kidneys were damaged, and he was no longer able to have children after your mother was born, but it is impossible for the country to be passed on to women, so His Majesty asked the queen to disguise herself as pregnant under the persuasion of the queen mother, and took King Chen's new son under his own door a few months later, so as to deceive the world." ”

In this way, it makes sense, Yan Gui pursed his lips and said: "So the Queen Mother thinks that Your Majesty and King Chen are her biological sons anyway, and King Chen's son is equivalent to His Majesty's son, and it is logical for the crown prince to ascend the throne, and it is equivalent to a thorn in the flesh if I come to insert a foot in the eye?" ”

"That's true."

"That'...... Since my parents knew that there would be today, why didn't they find a general to send troops to clear the king's side? ”

"General? Although others are in Kyoto, but the good generals and strong soldiers are all on the side, it is equivalent to house arrest, where to find a large army to counter the encirclement of the Imperial Forest Guard? ”

"But you have to find a way after all, aren't your parents tied up?"

Yan Zichu said bitterly: "Your mother and I thought we would just give up, but who would have thought that they would want to separate us from your mother!" ”

Yan Gui frowned: "I don't know when I will be able to come back again." ”

"Hope is not forever ......"
