Dayong was in the traces of life and death, and the emperor sent his favorite Concubine Lan out of the palace for some reason, and Concubine Lan was sent back seven days later. In those seven days, the emperor of Yunmeng Kingdom had accidents one after another and almost died, and the khans of those barbarians died for unknown reasons, so they retreated.

A month later, the emperor managed the state affairs well, and secretly ordered to poison Concubine Lan, and heard the last words of Concubine Lan before her death, and died in the emperor's mausoleum, which is not in the same hole as the emperor. In the year when the king of Chu was weak, Concubine Lan's classics were eliminated from the royal family tree by the emperor. The palace maid said in one breath, but her hands couldn't stop trembling.

"Where was the concubine sent? I can't tell, this king will let your head fall on the spot. Knowing that it was fake, Cheng Lianjin couldn't control the anger in his heart.

Concubine Lan was picked up by several men. When I sent it back, it was also a man, and I was riding in a sedan chair...... I don't know if it's a slave. The palace maid hurriedly kowtowed, she should say that she had said it, she shouldn't have to die, "There is one more thing, when Concubine Lan died, she was pregnant for a month. ”

"What?!" Cheng Lianjin's shock was inevitable, he never knew that there was such a thing, and his teeth were about to crush, "Impossible!"

"Do you really think I'm going to use this to deceive you?" Cheng Wei saw his sad appearance, his heart was dark, but he was sad for him, "Concubine Lan's death and pregnancy were told to me by the queen mother." Can't be wrong. ”

"How can you trust what the queen said!" Cheng Lianjin's eyes were full of bloodshots, staring at Cheng Xuan.

"Can Concubine Long be trusted? In this matter, she is the one who supports her father the most!"

"It's fake, it's all fake! If the father knew that his mother was pregnant, why was he so ruthless? ”

"Not everyone is like you, I'd rather be beautiful than a country!" Cheng Wei was also angry, he wanted to do this, and he wanted to excuse others, so he directly grabbed Cheng Lianjin's clothes, "The facts you have been pursuing are in front of you, why don't you believe it?!"

Cheng Lianjin didn't know if his current appearance was pretending to be true or real, did Cheng Tang really say this to this palace maid? Hasn't the content of what the palace maid said already been discussed? Why is there such a big difference from what was originally discussed?

"Do you know why Concubine Long now regards you as a thorn in her side?" Cheng Wei let go of him, looked at him and looked like he was out of his mind, and said a few more words, "Concubine Long is the one who directly caused the death of your mother." ”

Cheng Lianjin only felt that his mind was blank, and he didn't expect a word to refute him, and after only a while, he heard heavy overlapping footsteps outside.

The secret guards of the two of them moved, and they did not dare to move without the order of their master, and they both maintained a relative balance.

A trace of uneasiness slipped through Cheng Wei's heart, and before he could go out to look, he heard the voice of the commander of the Praetorian Guard at the door: "The eldest prince, the king of Chu, summoned by the emperor." ”

Cheng Wei and Cheng Lianjin's expressions are rarely the same, but their thoughts are different.

It's clear that he did it seamlessly, why did the emperor know it so quickly?

And Cheng Lianjin entered the palace, it was very secretive, the things he planned with Cheng Tang were only going to drag Cheng Xuan, why did he even have to be called to go? That could only be that Cheng Tang told the emperor his whereabouts.

The moment he opened the door, Cheng Wei knew that he had been fooled, and he fell for Cheng Lianjin and Cheng Tang......

"King Chu, Your Highness. I'm going to go with the lower officials. The commander was also respectful to the two of them, and sent two more people in to drag the palace maid out.

"Alright, no need to say more. Concubine Long took off her fancy clothes and fell asleep with Chunrong's service.

Chunrong lowered the curtain and heard Concubine Long say, "If there is any situation, come and inform the palace at any time." ”

"Yes. ”

The Imperial Study.

The study was brightly lit, the emperor was not there, and in the huge study, only Cheng Lianjin and Cheng Wei were standing.

Now it is Cheng Wei who is angry: "Qi Qing and that palace maid are all your people?"

Cheng Lianjin looked at the emperor's jade throne and did not answer.

"It's me who is in a hurry. Cheng Wei snorted self-deprecatingly, smart people, if something goes wrong, they will never blame their opponents, they will find problems from themselves first.

"It's already like this, and it's useless to say more. After a long time, Cheng Lianjin said this.

"We were all tricked by Concubine Long, this time, you thought you were a chess player, but you never knew that you were a chess piece. Cheng Wei looked up at the sky and smiled at the two of them, full of bitterness.

"Is it?" the emperor came out with Gao Mao, his eyes were full of anger, "My sons are all chess players, and they will use me as a pawn." ”

"See your father's father. Cheng Wei knelt down, what should be done still has to be done.

But Cheng Lianjin stood deadly, his eyes were empty, and he didn't seem to know that the emperor was coming.

Seeing him like this, Cheng Wei felt a little relieved in his heart, and the emperor's anger was probably going towards him.

The two fathers and sons looked at each other like this, Gao Mao stood behind the emperor and gave Cheng Lianjin a look, but Cheng Lianjin did not move.

"Do you really think that my favor for you is infinite?!" The emperor slapped the table heavily, coughing twice in too much excitement, he had been in poor health recently, so when Gao Mao found out the clues, he became more and more angry, causing his illness to worsen a few points.

"The son disdains the favor of his father. Cheng Lianjin stood straight, there was no respect for his father in his eyes, only the interrogation of the sinner, "I don't know what the father called his sons and eldest brother to do?"

"Disdain!? What a disdain!" the emperor clenched his hand into a fist slightly, pressed his lips and coughed twice, "Ahem, Gao Mao, bring the palace maid up." ”

"My father's health has not healed, so it's better to work less and worry about it. Cheng Wei was half-up, now as long as he pretends to be heavier, the image in the emperor's heart will be a few points better.

The emperor did not reply to him, but only gave him a disappointed look. When Cheng Wei received that look, he only felt a chill down his spine, maybe the punishment for this matter was heavier than he thought.

The palace maid just now was brought up, but she was already dying, and when she saw the emperor, her mind would not turn: "It was the queen mother who asked the slave maid to tell the king of Chu, so as to separate the king of Chu and the second prince." ”

How could Cheng Wei let her slander the queen, the queen was not only his biological mother, but also his help, the whole person was angry, and looked at the palace maid with a red face: "Cheap maid, if you talk nonsense again, I will ......"

Hearing the emperor's dissatisfaction with him, he realized that tonight's record had also harmed the queen......

"What! What are you going to do? Do you want to play the majesty of your prince in front of me?! Don't forget, everything you have now is given by me!" the Emperor raised his hands in excitement, and the anger on his face was most obvious.

"Father has asked us if we want it?" Cheng Lianjin clenched his fists, lowered his head and asked softly.

"Rebel son!" the emperor slapped the table twice, and the whole person was about to stand up.

"It's all the fault of the sons, and the father is angry. Cheng Wei kowtowed, got up and stood in front of the emperor, "Father is angry." ”

"Why do you have to force me?!Why!" the emperor shouted at Cheng Wei, got up from the jade chair, bypassed the table, and stood in front of Cheng Wei, "You are my eldest son." You say, why do you have to use this?!

"My father attaches great importance to the dragon body, and all the mistakes are the fault of his sons. Cheng Wei didn't know how to describe his current mood, he was afraid, but he could only bear it.

Seeing Cheng Wei's confession, the emperor collected his anger, turned around and walked towards Cheng Lianjin, and with each step, his anger deepened.

Cheng Lianjin did not dodge and faced the eyes of the emperor.

"What else do you want to do next!?Abolish the emperor?!" The emperor's exaggerated mouth shape made the disappointment and slight regret in his heart undoubtedly show.

"When the mother concubine left, she was a month pregnant, can the father know?" Cheng Lianjin was very calm in comparison, and only the red blood in his eyes could see his emotions, "The father is more lovely than the mother concubine?"

The emperor's face sank, and there was a little fear on his face: "How do you know?"

"The father and emperor killed his children and the people he loved the most so ruthlessly!" came out of the mouth of the palace maid, and the emperor himself admitted that the blow to Cheng Lianjin was really incomparable, "At first, I thought it was fake!"

"I am the Son of Heaven! I will only do the right thing. The emperor is not going to hide any longer, "As you found, this is the case with Concubine Lan." But you have to remember that I am for the sake of the world!"

"Hehe, for the sake of the common people in the world?" Cheng Lianjin glanced upwards with self-deprecation, "Or is it for this throne!?"

The emperor covered his heart, his eyes closed suddenly, Gao Mao was frightened enough, and hurriedly supported the emperor from behind, Cheng Wei did the same.

The emperor was just angry, a little unsteady, raised his finger, and pointed at Cheng Lianjin: "What qualifications do you have?! I am your father! If it weren't for me, how could you have such glory without this throne!"

"In addition to being a cold and cold King of Chu, what else does my father give me!?" Cheng Lianjin's face darkened terribly, he used to be a little respectful to this father, but now the last family affection has been worn away.

"You, you......" The emperor's hands trembled a little, and his heart fluctuated violently.

"Give me to the person who killed my mother to raise, and when my mother dies, my father can come and see me? What am I in my father's heart?" Cheng Lianjin pointed to himself and asked word by word.

"That's not my child, it's a wild seed!" said the Emperor, and then he muttered to himself.

"It's like this, what the father wants, listen to it. Cheng Lianjin is now completely dead in the heart of the father-son relationship with the emperor, and his voice is indifferent.

"You're good! you're good!" said the Emperor's decadence vividly in the sentence, and after speaking, he moved his heavy steps and walked back.

Cheng Lianjin just stood like that, and when he looked back, he didn't know when the palace maid committed suicide by taking poison.

Cheng Wei looked at Cheng Lianjin and said nothing, obviously as long as today's matter, he was defeated, but he was not as angry as before, probably because Cheng Lianjin was also defeated.

"Each other, each other. Cheng Lianjin didn't have much energy to argue with him, and his mind was full of the appearance of his mother smiling at him when he was a child.

"I am different from you, I am calculated by my opponents, and you are counted by those who are considered close to you. Interrogating the palace maid tonight, I originally notified Cheng Tang, but he said that he was sick and couldn't come. There is no need to find out why. Cheng Wei is now thinking about how to recover the defeat, "If you join forces with me now, wouldn't that position be captured?"

"Big brother is so smart, how can he use my little prince. Cheng Lianjin heard him say this, disgusted from the bottom of his heart, "Moreover, I don't need you to remind me of my affairs with him." ”
