Xiao Shizhang doesn't like to talk, but as a mother, even a glance can read it, Concubine Yan saw his thoughts, and said: "Today, Your Majesty asked Princess Yongxing to separate from the concubine, I tried to mention the matter of the Su family, Your Majesty is not very happy." ”

Xiao Shizhang was silent, but there seemed to be a layer of ice in his eyes. It is understandable that Xiao Yan dotes on his eldest daughter, but as a prince, is it so difficult for him to be on an equal footing with the princess?

"Your Majesty has become more seriously ill recently, he has seen the crown prince, and he has seen Yongxing, but he ......"

This time, instead of being silent, Xiao Shizhang also interrupted Concubine Yan, he knelt down and said, "Mother, Erchen knows what to do." ”

Concubine Yan's face, which was slightly haggard because of her illness, showed a relieved expression.

At the same time, in the prince's mansion, Xiao Shide's henchmen hurriedly came to report.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, there has been a strange thing recently......"

"What's wrong?" Xiao Shide asked indifferently, he has been smooth sailing recently, and he is very proud. Even thinking of his father's illness, whenever he is alone, there will be a faint excitement.

For as long as he can remember, everyone has told him openly and secretly that the future throne is his, so he has also been looking forward to that day since he was born. What's more, there are almost no people who can compete with him for the crown, there was originally a hidden danger Xiao Gonghe, but the death of King Linchuan is not a problem. There are also the three princes...... Although he has good knowledge and character, he is too shy and introverted, and he doesn't seem to be very concerned about the position of the prince.

Xiao Shide thought about it, and felt how strange it could be.

The henchman also seemed to think that the matter to be reported was incredible, and he was not very confident when he said it: "The matter of the prince and the prince back then, it seems that someone has been secretly investigating it recently. The henchman pondered, and then rounded his words euphemistically: "But...... It doesn't have to be intentional, it may happen to turn over the case of the year. Because there's nothing big going on......"

"Taifu? Which Taifu? Mrs. Steward? I don't have much friendship with him, and the old man is a bit arrogant. ”

"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, it's not the Imperial Palace, it's the ......" He secretly looked around, Xiao Shide motioned for him to continue, he lowered his voice and said, "Ju Taifu." ”

"Bow ......" Xiao Shide's face was suddenly stunned, and he immediately signaled to retreat from the people around him.

He added, "Are you sure?" It's been a matter of how long this has been, and besides, their family is dead, who will care about this matter. ”

The henchman was also not very sure: "After the scientific examination a few days ago, Guozixue invited some officials and literati to come over and teach them some things about entering the office, and I don't know who mentioned it first, so I discussed a few words at random, but they all said, 'I really didn't see that Ju Taifu was that kind of person back then', but no one doubted it, and I gave up after saying a few words." After that, the henchman added: "It may also be that it was really mentioned suddenly." ”

Xiao Shide nodded, pondered, and said after a while: "Don't worry about this matter for now, I think it's eighty percent of you who are all soldiers, check and check, don't end up with us lifting a stone and hitting ourselves in the foot." He tapped his fingers on the tabletop and said, "Be cautious lately, try not to have an accident these days." ”

"Yes, my subordinates know."

"Let's go down."

After the henchman left, Xiao Shide recalled the events of the year and had mixed feelings. Speaking of which, when he was young, Mrs. Ju treated him very well and taught him a lot, and in those days, he really regarded Mrs. Ju as his elder. Unlike the later Shi Taifu, he has an arrogant personality and does not take the prince in his eyes at all.

It's a pity...... Ju Taifu did what he shouldn't have done.
