Chapter 420: The Emperor Will Always Be the Emperor
Sure enough, after hearing this, the emperor looked at the eldest princess of Chaoyang and asked, "How did the imperial sister know about this by chance?" This matter involves my prince, and there is no room for error. β
The eldest princess of Chaoyang and the emperor have been sisters and brothers for many years, and for a long time, the two have been close. Therefore, as soon as the emperor's words came out, the eldest princess of Chaoyang knew one thing.
In the past, she had guessed that when the second prince and the fourth prince, Su Zhaoning and Nan Qichen of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion went to prison, the emperor already knew that the death of the fifth prince was the hand of the second prince, and there was some evidence.
Now, it seems, that is.
The emperor hates others more than ever to be deceived. If he hadn't decided that the second child had done this, his tone would never have been so peaceful.
In the other case, the emperor called himself me in the first sentence and I in the second sentence. According to the emperor's habit of disguising his true temperament, the reason why he really caused him unhappiness and made him use the self-title of Hui Zhen was not in the latter sentence.
The Emperor became suspicious of her.
This kind of caution of the eldest princess of Chaoyang is not for others. But her cautiousness is very common in the people in the palace.
Nearest the king nearest the gallows. If you really want to stay in front of the emperor who can tell the life and death of a person for a long time, you must have this means of survival.
In fact, every time Su Zhaoning entered the palace, he felt that this was the reason why he was extremely depressed and cautious. Because, what she is good at, what she relies on, everyone here will. The decision to win or lose is only in the subtle difference of who does better.
At this time, the eldest princess of Chaoyang wanted to win with this subtlety.
She unreservedly told some of the things that the five princes had before they died, from the cook who offered vegetables in the drunken fairy building to the concubine who told her to report the news.
All, the part she was involved in, she said.
It's just that the reason for doing this in the first place is completely different from the answer that is being said at this moment.
The eldest princess of Chaoyang explained: "The Dingyuan Marquis Mansion has no pillars, and the Nuo Hou Mansion is as big as a thatched hut in the wind and rain. Therefore, the cook who served the dishes in the Drunken Immortal Building that day was actually arranged by me. I sympathize with Su Zhaoning. She is a woman, and if she encounters such a blackmail thing as the previous time, it may not be convenient to come forward to solve it. I'll keep an eye on her so it's much easier. β
And the news from Xi Concubine's side is actually just a show of goodwill. There is absolutely no problem with that dish. When the eldest princess of Chaoyang said this, she sighed again.
When she mentioned the second prince later, her expression could not hide her grief, and her eyes were moist before she finished speaking.
"Second brother, he would do that, I really can't think of it...... Telling him about the cook, and even asking the concubine to report the news, is actually to atone for him. The second child of the Nan family can't do it anymore. This is iniquity. The eldest princess of Chaoyang raised her head, looked at the emperor, and said with a look full of reminiscence, "Among your concubines, the second concubine has a docile temperament, you know, she treats me very well." β
Behind the screen, the sixth princess heard the eldest princess of Chaoyang say the cook and the concubine, and she was very disdainful in her heart.
Sure enough, the eldest princess's mother is really selfish. Anyone can sell for their own sake. The sixth princess suspected that if the emperor mentioned that she should return to Nanyu, the eldest princess of Chaoyang might also selfishly agree.
Outside the screen, the emperor did not say anything for the time being. He was considering the truth or falsehood of the words of the eldest princess of Chaoyang.
Really, there is. Xi Concubine had already chosen to tell her in front of her that she had helped the eldest princess of Chaoyang.
Fake, there must be some too.
His royal sister is so smart. How can a wise man go without profit? The emperor didn't believe that the eldest princess of Chaoyang would help the Marquis of Dingyuan and the second prince for no reason.
He thought about the results for a moment, and finally felt that he was okay and skipped this part. After all, in the hearts of many people, the eldest princess of Chaoyang is a manifestation of him, the emperor, remembering the old feelings.
Moreover, sooner or later, the crown prince will be established. The emperor hated that his sons took the initiative to fight for the position of the crown prince, but if he calmed down, he also knew that the position under him would have to be given up sooner or later.
He will give, but not now.
The emperor asked the eldest princess of Chaoyang: "What does the imperial sister think should be done with this matter?" β
Of course, the eldest princess of Chaoyang would not believe that the emperor was really asking her opinion on the matter of the second prince.
She got up and saluted the emperor and said, "My unintentional mistake killed Xiao Wu, please punish Your Majesty." β
"Sister Huang is serious." After the emperor said this, he did not immediately come to help the eldest princess of Chaoyang to get up as usual.
The eldest princess of Chaoyang also maintained a saluting posture and did not get up without permission.
The emperor looked at it for a moment, and then said, "Sister Huang, get up." You really don't have to be so guilty. I thought that the second child wanted this position, so he had the idea of killing his brother. Therefore, without the 'unintentional mistake' of the imperial sister, he would have taken Xiao Wu's life. β
"Speaking of Xiao Wu, I am actually very satisfied with him. But people die like lights go out, and Xiao Wu can never come back. The emperor couldn't hide his regret on his face, "Sister Huang thinks that which of the remaining princes is more suitable to be the crown prince?" β
The sixth princess suddenly pricked up her ears. knew that her father would ask this question directly, why did she need to help her mother to plot with the second prince and the third prince?
The eldest princess of Chaoyang is not the sixth princess, so she will not have such a naΓ―ve idea. She left the table again, saluted and pleaded: "Whether it is the second prince or the third prince, they have all come to my house to ask me for help, hoping that I can say a few kind words for them in front of His Majesty." But I think that Your Majesty is far-sighted, and who he is going to choose to inherit the unification must have an answer in his heart. I don't have to add to it. β
After hearing this, the emperor looked at the eldest princess of Chaoyang and praised meaningfully: "I know that the imperial sister is dedicated to me. β
The eldest princess of Chaoyang replied word by word in her heart after pondering in her heart: "Of course I should think of my own brother. β
The emperor smiled: "Then I will be relieved." Zangxi had already declared himself a vassal to David, but Nanyu was slow to respond. I want to send Zhiyin back to Nanyu to recognize my ancestors and return to my ancestors, I don't know what the imperial sister wants? β
The sixth princess held her breath and waited for the answer from the eldest princess of Chaoyang.
Zhiyin, is her name.
The eldest princess of Chaoyang also smiled and replied, "Your Majesty has such an idea, which is a blessing for Zhiyin. Then I will thank Your Majesty for Zhiyin. β
The reason why the eldest princess of Chaoyang can always be the eldest princess of Chaoyang is because she remembers better than anyone that the emperor is actually not the emperor's brother, but always and always the emperor.
The emperor's consultation will really be a consultation, can it really be refused?
Compared with the future calculation, the current life is the most important.
To be alive is to have hope. This is also the reason why the eldest princess of Chaoyang entered the palace to save the three princes.
But some people are born with the understanding that this kind of short-term grievance is in exchange for greater success. And some people will never be able to accept any grievances.
The sixth princess shifted her gaze to the side, and suddenly landed on an object.
