Chapter 340: Let's Talk, Ask
The second prince heard Su Zhaoning's words, and glared angrily: "What do you mean by this?" ”
"That's what His Royal Highness understands." Su Zhaoning replied without fear.
Even, Su Zhaoning was much bolder than the second prince imagined.
She looked directly into the eyes of the second prince and said, "His Royal Highness designed the Drunken Immortal Tower, and this is what he was waiting for." Now that I have got my wish, I am really gratifying. ”
Locked up in a prison, Su Zhaoning didn't know anything about the outside world. She didn't know what had been sent, and she didn't know what the emperor had found. It's just that the fourth prince and the second prince were deliberately imprisoned on their side, and it is obvious that in the emperor's heart, these two people have something to do with the affairs of the fifth prince.
Then give it a try. Will it be worse than it is now?
The second prince was really enraged.
If it weren't for the cell that restrained him, Su Zhaoning had no doubt that the other party's fist would hit him directly in the face.
"Nonsense! What nonsense are you talking about! Su Zhaoning, don't think that now that I'm in this prison, I can't help you. When I'm out, see how I clean you up! The second prince roared.
Su Zhaoning looked back at him: "I don't think so. Second Highness, you can break Qi Chen's hands and feet, and you can poison your own brother. How could I not be afraid of you? ”
"I didn't! You talk nonsense ! The second prince looked at Su Zhaoning with a wary expression.
He was already somewhat aware of Su Zhaoning's intentions. mentioned the matter of the fifth child again and four times, this Su Zhaoning is probably talking about himself!
Thinking of this, the second prince immediately shut up and said nothing.
It wasn't until he listened to it for a long time that there was no sound of the jailer's approaching footsteps in his ears, and the second prince breathed a sigh of relief.
It's just that after that, he was more careful when he spoke.
The second prince deliberately lowered his voice before he spoke to Su Zhaoning: "Do you think that you can force me to confess my sins by using the method of agitation?" Don't you think! ”
"Second Highness is thinking too much." Su Zhaoning hugged Nan Minxing in his arms in a different direction, and replied to the second prince in a calm tone.
After saying this, Su Zhaoning no longer paid attention to the second prince.
Su Zhaoning didn't care about himself anymore, and the second prince looked at the four princes around him who were even more unprovoked by him, and felt a little unspeakably depressed in his heart.
Why are you here, aren't they all the people in front of you?
If they had been beheaded earlier, he wouldn't have been here to accompany them.
What did his father say to him today, he actually suspected that he had something to do with the death of the fifth child!
Although, the fifth child's death was indeed done by himself. But it should be seamless.
Thinking of Su Zhaoning's words earlier, the second prince couldn't help but raise his head again and took the initiative to look at Su Zhaoning's side.
Could it be that in the Queen's Palace, something else happened that was not planned by himself? That's why my father was suspicious of himself?
The second prince wanted to get rid of the fifth prince and the fourth prince at the same time. But he didn't want to get on himself at all.
The eyes of the fourth prince also looked at Su Zhaoning's side, and they saw that her hand holding Nan Minxing was turning her wrist slightly, thinking that she was very tired.
And his family Ah Bao has always been naughty, why is he so stable now?
The fourth prince was a little worried, so he went around the bend and asked Nan Qichen: "Qichen, are the three of you okay?" ”
"I'm fine. It's just that Minxing caught a cold last night and is now a little feverish. Nan Qichen honestly explained his family's situation and inventory.
When the fourth prince heard the news that his son had a fever, the worry in his eyes became even more obvious.
He was about to open his mouth to ask Su Zhaoning, but Su Zhaoning spoke first.
"Qichen, Minxing's fever has subsided, you hand me the quilt over there from this fence gap. I'll cover him. Su Zhaoning said to Nan Qichen.
After hearing this, the four princes immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
His breath was completely taken into the eyes of the second prince.
The second prince's lips rose, and his words were full of malice: "The four emperor brothers are all in time to sing a big opera." When you are not in front of others, I don't see how much you care about the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion. Now that they're in front of you, you've done a good job. ”
Nan Qichen shot back for the fourth prince: "Your Second Highness can sing by himself, do you think that everyone can sing like you?" ”
The second prince still bit the fourth prince and said: "If the four emperor brothers don't have one set in front of them and one set on the back, it seems that it will vary from person to person." ”
"Dare to be affectionate, this valuable person in the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion is worthy of being valued by the Fourth Emperor Brother, and the worthless person will be abandoned by you." The second prince deliberately looked at Nan Qichen and said this, and he saw that his fourth emperor brother could not bear it.
As long as the other party can't help it, Nan Minxing's identity is even more worthy of scrutiny.
In fact, the second prince is not 100% sure of Nan Minxing's identity. But he felt that such a worthless Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, if he changed himself, he would never secretly help each other anymore.
Since his fourth emperor brother is willing to give the Drunken Immortal Tower, it is obvious that there are still people or things in the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion that he cares about.
Looking at this house, it's the new little guy.
The second prince added fuel to the fire and continued: "Madam Dingyuan, you have to hold on to this talisman in your arms. Without this little guy, I'm afraid that your life or death will not be taken care of by the Fourth Emperor Brother. ”
The fire burned on himself again, and Su Zhaoning returned a smile to the second prince.
The enemy's laughter was obviously not at all happy.
The second prince is inexplicable and depressed. He asked, "What are you laughing at?" What's so funny about you? ”
Su Zhaoning replied: "I just want to laugh when I think of some things that happened a few days ago." Why, does Your Highness even care about what I think? ”
The second prince was blocked by this sentence for a long time and didn't know how to respond. But he gradually came back to his senses.
What happened a few days ago, if it can make Su Zhaoning laugh, does it mean that he guessed correctly - something did happen in the queen's palace, which made his father directly suspicious of him.
In this prison, the second prince didn't want to stay for half an hour. Not to mention, there is no end in sight.
He tested Su Zhaoning and said, "Since we are all in the prison now, what are you happy about, why don't you say that you have fun together?" ”
Su Zhaoning glanced at the second prince and said with a smile: "Your Royal Highness is sure that what I am happy about is not something that you are sad about?" ”
Listening to Su Zhaoning's provocative words, the second prince was not angry but happy. He expected that he had completely guessed, and hurriedly said, "You can tell me, how do you know that I won't be happy if you don't say it?" ”
The corners of Su Zhaoning's mouth raised slightly, and he said to the second prince: "Your Royal Highness is right. There is nothing else to do in this prison. It's always good for people to tell stories. Let's ask each other. Whatever His Royal Highness wants to ask, I will answer. ”
"As for what I want to ask, Second Highness, please answer as well." Su Zhaoning was very patient with the words of the second prince.
The second prince thought of the danger of doing so, but he was confident that he could completely avoid such a danger.
Su Zhaoning asked something, even if he answered, he didn't say that he had to answer the truth.
The second prince nodded and said, "Okay." So let's get started. Why don't I ask first? ”
"Second Highness, please." Su Zhaoning did not refuse.
The second prince hurriedly asked: "I don't know how many people were in the harem on the day my fifth emperor brother had an accident?" ”
"In addition to the servants who serve, the harem ladies are only the queen mother, the concubine and the concubine Zhen. The princes who came were the fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, tenth, and eleventh princes. And then it's me and Minxing. Su Zhaoning replied very sincerely.
When the second prince heard this, he thought quickly in his heart: The eldest princess of Chaoyang said that she had arranged for someone to propose to Zuixianlou to send food into the palace, could it be that this was said by a palace maid?
I only heard Su Zhaoning add: "By the way, Your Majesty is coming later." ”
"When did my father come?" The second prince asked.
Su Zhaoning replied: "It was when the fifth prince had not yet had an accident. ”
If it was proposed to send pastries in front of his father, then the person who proposed it would be easy to guess.
Definitely one of the three harem lords.
These three people, the queen is her adoptive mother, and she should not harm herself. Lin Guifei promised to help herself. Then, if someone is not good for themselves, it must be Concubine Zhen.
The second prince figured out the key point, and then asked: "Who first mentioned the matter of the Drunken Immortal Tower?" ”
"It's the concubine." Su Zhaoning replied.
The second prince can't think clearly now. Could it be that Concubine Lin Guifei has reversed course? Or is it that his Seventh Emperor Sister has rebelled?
"Did Father and Empress summon the others in?" The second prince continued to ask.
Su Zhaoning looked at the second prince and did not answer this question.
The second prince was a little anxious, and hurriedly urged: "Answer quickly!" ”
Su Zhaoning said sarcastically: "Has Your Highness forgotten what we discussed, shouldn't you be the only one who asks?" ”
Su Zhaoning's attitude did not surprise the second prince. They are not people in the same boat, if the other party has been cooperating, the second prince will suspect that Su Zhaoning is lying.
The second prince replied, "You ask." One of us asked three. Take turns. ”
The second prince eagerly refined the rules.
Su Zhaoning did not object, and asked three questions of his own at one time: "Is the Nanmiao Village cook in the Drunken Immortal Building the second prince arranged for you to enter?" Then the immortal life of Nanmiao Village was killed by the second prince? Also, where did the immortal mother go? ”
The second prince knew that Su Zhaoning would ask about something related to the Drunken Immortal Tower. He said all the negative answers he had in his heart in one breath: "No." I didn't arrange for the cook to enter the Drunken Immortal Tower, nor did I arrange for Changsheng to blackmail you, let alone kill people. Changshengniang, a seventy-year-old mother-in-law, how do I know where she has gone. ”
"Okay, I've answered your three questions, it's time for me to continue." The second prince couldn't wait to say.
Su Zhaoning nodded and said with a smile: "Second Highness, please speak." ”
Her smile made the second prince feel a little inexplicable. But the four princes already understood.
