Xie Yijiang nodded: "Yes, you have also seen today's events, the prince is competing like this, and there will be a tough battle to be fought in the court in the future." ”

"I know." Zhu Xinzhi bowed his head, looked at Xie Yijiang and smiled slightly: "Until now, I won't hide it from my father-in-law." He glanced at it, Pei Xie Tang felt his heart skip a beat, and gave Li Shangxi a look, this is to let him go to the door to guard, Zhu Xinzhi showed a look of joy, softened his voice and said: "This matter was originally provoked by me." ”

"You?" As soon as these words came out, Xie Yijiang and Pei Xie Tang were both shocked.

Zhu Xinzhi said: "When you entered the palace before, I was busy for a few days, and that's what it was for. Huang Peilin has long had signs of corruption, and he used to hold back, but he just felt that a petty official, as long as the place was stable, it was nothing to embezzle. But after what happened to you, I later felt that although the mosquito is small, it bites but hurts, and I traced it layer by layer, only to find that there is such an amazing deal hidden behind it. I am ready to uproot Huang Peilin, and naturally I have done it well, father-in-law, you don't have to worry. ”

"The prince must have hated us this time." Xie Yijiang rubbed his hands again and again, but he was not too anxious, and after thinking about it, he said: "It's just that I still can't figure it out, the prince let a Huang Peilin embezzle so much, and he didn't see a penny of the money from the treasury, where did all this money go?" ”

"Here." Zhu Xinzhi smiled slightly, and sent a palm-sized ledger from his arms.

Xie Yijiang took it suspiciously.

After only reading a few pages, he changed color: "The prince is too bold, raising a private army, this is a rebellion!" ”

Zhu Xinzhi didn't answer this.

Pei Xie Tang didn't answer.

After Xie Yijiang finished speaking, he saw that the two of them looked strange, and he stopped talking, he was loyal, he had been a cold bystander in the court for so many years, and he was also extremely sensitive to many things. With only the vague attitude of the two of them, he was quiet, and suddenly struck his body like lightning, and he suddenly stiffened: "Could it be that the prince really has such a disobedient heart?" Why? He is the crown prince of the East Palace, as long as he doesn't make any mistakes, and His Majesty will go in the future, the position of the Ninety-Five Emperor is his alone! ”

Such a rush is easy to backfire!

Xie Yijiang really couldn't figure it out.

Zhu Xinzhi drank a cup of tea leisurely, Pei Xie Tang pursed his lips and smiled, and also poured a cup for Xie Yijiang, and said thoughtfully: "Dad, what the prince wants to say next may be too shocking, Dad drink some water steadily." ”

That's a big deal!

Xie Yijiang really picked up the teacup, only had a strong premonition in his heart, his hands trembled, a cup of tea spilled most of it, he finally took a sip, swallowed it, and listened to Zhu Xinzhi's mouth: "Why the prince is like this, I have clearly found out." Just because he is not of his father's bloodline, but the illegitimate son of Empress Chen and Meng Zheping! The Chen family and his plan is like this, if the prince's life experience is not revealed, he will naturally sit back and relax, if he is exposed, for the sake of the supreme position, there is still a way to retreat. ”

Bang –

The teacup that Xie Yijiang didn't have time to put down just rolled out of his hand and smashed into several pieces on the ground.

What did Zhu Xinzhi just say?

The crown prince is not born to Emperor Xuanqing?

Xie Yijiang's face was pale, almost shaky, he looked at Zhu Xinzhi with wide eyes, and saw that the other party's expression was solemn, recalling the past, this person was not a person who could speak. Since Zhu Xinzhi can say it, he is completely sure. He was eating the court and being a subordinate of Emperor Xuanqing, and he wanted to worry about the king every day, but when he heard this earth-shattering news, his brain became blank and he didn't know how to react. Pei Xie Tang knew that he would not be able to stand it, so he helped him who was crumbling: "Dad, steady!" ”

Xie Yijiang slowed down for a long time before he finally recovered, and only his lips trembled violently.

There was only one sentence in his mind: The crown prince is not the biological son of Emperor Xuanqing, but the blood of Empress Chen and Meng Zheping!

This sentence alone is enough to overturn all his understanding.

Zhu Xinzhi waited for him to slow down, and then took out the secret letter sent by the eldest princess Zhu Qinglian from his arms, and unfolded it in front of Xie Yijiang.

Xie Yijiang's hands were shaking, he thought that the news was already a bolt from the blue, but when he read the letter, he felt that the news was simply reasonable, and even this letter was very logical.

"I can't imagine ......" Xie Yijiang sighed in a low voice: "The prince and the Chen family still have such a disobedient heart. ”

"It's useless to lament it right now." Zhu Xinzhi said in a low voice: "Father-in-law, there is not much time left for me, now that you have offended the prince, he will not let you stay, after this incident, because of the existence of the princess, I think that the Xie family will disappear in the long river of history with my Huai'an Palace, and even be charged with rebellion." ”

Xie Yijiang's face was pale, he had already thought of it, but he was at a loss in his heart.

However, in the end, he has been in the DPRK for many years, and he is in a high position, although his heart is simple, he is not completely unassertive. Waiting for Xie Yijiang to settle down and think about it, he asked, "What is the prince going to do?" ”

"Lift." Zhu Xinzhi said.

Xie Yijiang asked: "How do you raise it?" If the prince wants to kill two birds with one stone on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, he must be well prepared. ”

"I also got the rumor, and I may not be able to lose to the prince." Zhu Xinzhi was unruly, with a little condensation in his eyes: "If I dare to do it, I dare to be sure that I will not lose." ”

Suddenly, he looked at Pei Xie Tang, and his voice was a little gentle: "I won't let her follow me and become a ghost under the knife again." ”

Pei Xie Tang was stunned for a moment, and then felt as if he had been hit by something.

She looked back at Zhu Xinzhi's eyes, the soft warmth in it was like an unshakable mountain, she had never seen such a Zhu Xinzhi, even if he deceived him before and provoked him very emotionally, he had never said his thoughts so firmly.

Xie Yijiang was quite pleased: "Cheng Yin is fortunate to be married to you." ”

Only a person like Zhu Xinzhi can protect his daughter, and when his daughter is handed over to the prince, he is completely relieved. It's just that when I think about it, I still feel too risky and very nervous.

He simply stood up, walked around the room, and after thinking about all the possibilities, he suddenly felt a chill all over his body.

This matter is too big, and the more he thinks about it, the more he feels like a man.

Zhu Xinzhi turned his gaze, still falling on Xie Yijiang's body: "Father-in-law, I have thought about it, the eldest princess handed over her life to her son-in-law, and her son-in-law can't let her take risks too." The eldest princess only has one son, Gao Xingzhi, and now for the sake of the country, she doesn't even care about her son's life. This can only succeed and not fail, I have secretly deduced it several times, and in some places I still need my father-in-law to help me. Huang Peilin's matter is just the beginning, I provoked it at this time, just to divide the prince's mind, since the father-in-law has torn his face with the prince, with the father-in-law's integrity, it is impossible to be in the same league with such rebellious ministers and thieves, right? ”

"What do you want me to do?" Xie Yijiang is also refreshing.

Zhu Xinzhi said what he was asked to do: "In the court, the prince must not be willing to lose his money bag like this, and maybe he will use some means." Now that things are so big, it is impossible to fish out Huang Peilin, and the prince may have to install his own people again. No matter who he wanted to send, his father-in-law had to bite the bullet and stop him. ”

Xie Yijiang nodded.

Pei Xie Tang interjected on the side: "The prince and the Chen family will not give up, and there needs to be someone around Daddy to protect him." ”

"I'll let Yue Xixiu and Ji Ying follow you." Zhu Xinzhi: "It's all arranged." ”

Pei Xie Tang also breathed a sigh of relief.

There was silence in the room for a while, and everyone's hearts were very heavy, and when they thought of the danger ahead, they didn't even have the interest to speak.

After a moment's silence, Xie Yijiang suddenly raised his head: "Your Highness." ”

He shouted solemnly.

In the past, Xie Yijiang either called the prince, or called Xinzhi to show his closeness, but suddenly shouted such a formal sound, which made Zhu Xinzhi and Pei Xie Tang stunned.

The two of them raised their heads together, only to hear Xie Yijiang ask word by word: "At that time, if the conspiracy of the East Palace is overturned, and the country has no prince, what will happen?" The second prince has no achievements, not to mention, he has learned the viciousness of the Meng family, although he was suppressed by the crown prince, but everyone can see that the second prince is not a Ming monarch. The third prince is a decent person, but unfortunately, he is not a smart person, and if the prince of the country is stupid and incompetent, it will be a disaster for a country. Your Highness, if the East Palace is gone, you ...... Do you want to ascend to the position of the Ninety-Five? ”

This question stopped Zhu Xinzhi and Pei Xie Tang together.

Pei Xie Tang looked at Zhu Xinzhi in amazement.

Yes, they have been planning this big thing all day long, but they forget that after this big thing, there is another bigger thing.

After the crown prince falls, who will sit in this position?

If you are not careful, this will be a disaster for the Eastern Continent!

Zhu Xinzhi's face changed.

"I am tantamount to the position of the prince." Zhu Xinzhi said in a low voice: "I swore when I was young that I would only be a virtuous king in this life, and I would never try to seek that throne, and my father knew it." ”

"But I remember, there seems to be a condition for this oath?" Xie Yijiang blinked: "You can't be shaken unless you have to." Isn't it a last resort when the country is in imminent danger? ”

Zhu Xinzhi shook his head slowly: "Without the prince of the East Palace, the second emperor brother will not succeed, and there will be the third emperor brother." Although the Third Emperor Brother is a gentleman on weekdays, however, he is a loyal and kind person, and he may have no achievements, but he will never be stupid. And with our assistance, there may not be a big mess. I don't want to break my vow, even if I didn't want to when I made it, but after all these years, I have a princess, and I will never take any chances, if not for me, for her. ”

Xie Yijiang looked at him fixedly, his eyes full of admiration.

There are many people in this world who want that position, but this is the only one who has the opportunity to get it, but he refuses to come forward for the sake of a vain oath. This concentration is really unmatched.

Zhu Xinzhi is worthy of being praised by the world as a gentleman and a virtuous person!
