The next day, after the early dynasty, Zhenguo Gong was summoned by Empress Xie.

As expected by Zhenguo Gong, as soon as Empress Xie saw him, she said that His Royal Highness King Jing had been entrusted by the emperor with an important task to serve as Shang Shuling.

Zhen Guogong did not interrupt Empress Xie's words, and quietly listened to Empress Xie's rhetoric.

The more Empress Xie spoke, the more excited she became, but she suddenly found that her brother had a cold face, which made the smile on her face freeze suddenly, and a trace of anger immediately rose in her heart. She shouted dissatisfiedly, "Big brother! ”

Zhen Guogong looked at Empress Xie and said calmly: "Finished?" ”

Empress Xie hated Zhen Guogong's calm appearance the most, as if everything was under his control.

"Big brother, what do you mean?"

Zhen Guogong did not answer Empress Xie's question, but asked rhetorically, "What do you mean?" ”

Seeing that Zhen Guogong still looked indifferent, Queen Xie's heart felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on her, and the whole person fell into the ice cellar in an instant.

She looked at Zhen Guogong in a daze, and did not respond for a long time.

Seeing Empress Xie's unbelievable sluggish appearance, Zhen Guogong sighed slightly in his heart. Still, his expression remained aloof.

"What do you want me to do?"

Hearing Zhen Guogong say this, Empress Xie came back to her senses, and immediately glared at Zhen Guogong with a pair of eyes full of anger. She asked sharply, "Big brother, you know what I want you to do, are you playing stupid for me now?" ”

Zhen Guogong didn't know what to do, so he patiently asked again, "What do you want me to do?" ”

Empress Xie was extremely angry, her face was flushed with anger, and her eyes were spraying anger at Zhen Guogong. She roared at Zhen Guogong: "I want you to support Xiao Qi as the crown prince!" Did you hear me clearly? ”

Zhen Guogong ignored Empress Xie's angry appearance, and still asked indifferently, "Then what?" “

Empress Xie saw that Zhen Guogong still had this calm expression, and her angry face turned blue. She glared at Zhen Guogong angrily, gritted her teeth and said, "Then abolish Zhao Xuan!" ”

"Impossible!" Zhen Guogong did not ask Queen Xie again this time, but spoke decisively.

Empress Xie had long expected the Zhenguo Guild to say this, but she still had a trace of luck in her heart, thinking that her brother would be on her side, but she didn't expect it...... Now hearing Zhen Guogong's refusal, Queen Xie was angry, aggrieved and unwilling in her heart.

Her eyes were red with anger, but she still suppressed the anger in her heart, and asked Zhen Guogong word by word: "For!" Miscellaneous! Whatever! ”

Zhen Guogong saw that Empress Xie's face with delicate makeup had become distorted because he was too angry, and his eyes and face still did not change at all.

"I said that our Xie family only supports His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and does not support others, including His Royal Highness King Jing!"

With a snap, Empress Xie raised her hand to destroy the tea cup on the table next to her.

This sound was particularly loud in the quiet Zhaoyang Palace. Jiang Chuan, who was guarding the door, heard the sound of the tea cup breaking, and a touch of fear swelled in their hearts.

They hurriedly lowered their heads and lightened their breathing, for fear of touching the queen's moldy head at this time.

"Where is Xiao Qi not as good as Zhao Xuan?" Empress Xie yelled at the Duke of Zhenguo with a gloomy face.

Zhen Guogong said in a light tone: "Xiao Qi is not the eldest son!" He added, "We've talked about it before. ”

Empress Xie's eyes were red, and her always dignified face became very terrifying at this moment.

"Big brother, you are Xiao Qi's uncle, uncle!"

Zhen Guogong said in an indifferent tone: "I am also the uncle of His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”

"You ......" Empress Xie pointed angrily at Zhenguo Gong, almost unable to breathe because of her anger.

"Little sister, don't be so angry first." Seeing that Empress Xie looked like she was about to faint, Zhenguo Gong spoke softly to comfort her, "Let's have a good talk today." ”

Empress Xie's whole body trembled slightly, and she looked at Zhen Guogong with resentment in her eyes.

"You...... What else is there to talk about between us......" After speaking, Empress Xie's angry eyes shed tears.

"Little sister, haven't you ever thought about why the emperor suddenly asked His Royal Highness King Jing to make a scholar's order?" Zhen Guogong was patient, and continued in a gentle tone, "Do you really think that the emperor wants to give His Royal Highness King Jing a chance because he values His Royal Highness King Jing?" ”

Empress Xie said angrily: "Isn't it? ”

He knew that Xiaomei hadn't thought about it.

"Of course not, the emperor is trying to sow discord between you and me." Zhen Guogong sighed in his heart, compared with the eldest sister, the little sister is really far behind. "Let's get into the house."

Empress Xie said coldly: "If you support Xiao Qi, the relationship between us will not be provoked, and the Xie family will not have infighting." ”

Hearing Empress Xie say this, Zhen Guogong was not surprised at all.

"Little sister, in your heart, is His Royal Highness King Jing important, or is the Xie family important?"

Empress Xie said without thinking: "Of course Xiao Qi is important. After speaking, she added, "As long as Xiao Qi becomes the prince, the Xie family will be even more powerful than now." ”

Sure enough, in the heart of the little sister, His Royal Highness King Jing is the most important!

"Little sister, you have always been jealous that the eldest sister replaced you to marry the emperor, and then became the queen. Then do you know that before the eldest sister married the emperor, her father and mother had already told the eldest sister about their relatives, and the eldest sister and the other party were happy. ”

Empress Xie didn't know about this, this was the first time she had heard of it. She opened her mouth wide in surprise: "What did you say?" ”

"When you were young, you didn't understand anything." Zhenguo Gong didn't want to talk about this matter, but he saw that Queen Xie was stubborn, so he could only tell Queen Xie some unknown things about the former queen, hoping that Queen Xie could understand something. "The eldest sister and the other party have been married since childhood, and they originally planned to wait for the eldest sister and the two to get married, but I didn't expect my father to cancel the eldest sister's marriage since childhood in order to win over the first emperor, and marry the current emperor."

"The eldest sister and the other party grew up together, and the relationship is very good, just like Concubine Rong and the emperor. The eldest sister was reluctant to marry the emperor at that time, but for the sake of the Xie family, she could only marry the emperor. ”

After hearing this, Empress Xie said with a mocking face: "It is a blessing that she has cultivated for eight lifetimes to marry the emperor. ”

"And my father, in order to marry the first emperor, my father's posture was very ......low," Zhenguo Gong told Empress Xie about some of the sacrifices made by the Xie family for the Xie family, including himself, of course.

After Empress Xie heard Zhen Guogong's words, not only did she not understand, but asked unhappily: "Big brother, do you mean that I want to give up my own son for the Xie family?" ”

Zhen Guogong nodded his head: "Little sister, you have to think about the Xie family, you can't let the emperor's plan succeed!" ”

Empress Xie stood up suddenly, and immediately laughed loudly: "Hahahahaha......" Her laughter was very sharp, and it was full of anger and sarcasm. "Hahaha, it's really funny......"

Zhen Guogong didn't speak, and looked at Queen Xie, who was laughing a little crazy, with an expressionless face.

Empress Xie laughed for a while before stopping, her face was covered with thick ridicule: "Big brother, don't you think your words are too funny." If it were you, would you give up your son for the Xie family? ”

Zhen Guogong did not hesitate, and said in a serious and firm tone: "Yes!" For the sake of the Xie family, I can give up myself! ”

The sarcastic smile on Empress Xie's face froze. She looked at Zhen Guogong in a daze. I saw that Zhen Guogong looked very serious, not like he was lying to her.

"For the sake of the Xie family, any of us can sacrifice!" Zhenguo Gong said solemnly, "The Xie family's current status is the result of the Xie family's sacrifice for the Xie family!" ”

Empress Xie was stunned, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

"If it wasn't the eldest sister who sacrificed her happiness to marry the emperor back then, then the current queen is the Wang family." Zhenguo is fair, "Then the current Wang family is the head of the gate valve family, and our Xie family is subservient." ”

Empress Xie bit her lip and did not speak.

"Without the sacrifice of the eldest sister, can you still be this queen now?" Zhen Guogong said, "Is your son still a prince?" ”

He continued: "Without my father's low voice back then, without my father's compromise back then, the Wang family is now above our Xie family. And you can only marry someone from the same clan, maybe you will be forced to marry the Wang family, or the Xun family, or the Yuan family......"

Zhen Guogong's words made Queen Xie unable to refute.

"Little sister, without the Xie family, you are nothing." Zhen Guogong said, his face turned cold, and his tone became cold, "Believe it or not, once something happens to the Xie family, you, the queen, will also do it, and your precious son is only afraid that he will be demoted to a concubine." ”

"You ......"

Zhen Guogong interrupted Empress Xie's words and said very ruthlessly: "You can marry the emperor and be the queen, do you really think it's on your own?" If you are not the daughter of the Xie family, do you think the emperor will still marry you as a successor? ”

"You are selfish and only think about yourself and your son, and don't care about the Xie family, it's okay." Seeing that it didn't make sense to Queen Xie with kind words, Zhenguo Gong could only threaten. "From now on, you and His Royal Highness King Jing have nothing to do with our Xie family. I don't think there is a Xie family, what can you and His Royal Highness King Jing do? ”

When Empress Xie heard Zhen Guogong like this, she couldn't help but panic, and there was a look of panic on her face.

"What do you mean, to cut ties with me?"

"I can't let you and His Royal Highness King Jing ruin the Xie family." Zhen Guogong said with a serious face, "I promised my father that the Xie family could not be destroyed in my hands. I also promised my father that I would never allow anyone to ruin the Xie family, including you! If your father is alive and learns that you are selfish and only think about His Royal Highness King Jing, and don't think about the Xie family, your father will no longer recognize you as a daughter! ”

As he spoke, his eyes became very cold, "If you insist that I abolish His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and replace His Royal Highness King Jing as the Crown Prince, then don't blame me for being ruthless as a brother." ”

"You ......" Queen Xie didn't expect Zhenguo Gong to be so ruthless, and cried angrily, "Mother, my eldest brother bullied me and wanted to cut off the brother-sister relationship with me......"

His Royal Highness King Jing rushed to Zhaoyang Palace and heard Empress Xie crying and screaming. He hurriedly walked in and comforted Queen Xie.

Empress Xie leaned on King Jing's arms, pointed at Zhenguo Gong and cried, "Xiao Qi, your good uncle wants to cut off the relationship with our mother and son in order to support the crown prince. ”

When King Jing heard this, his face was covered with haze.

"Uncle, what's going on?"

Zhen Guogong told His Royal Highness King Jing in detail what Fang had just said to Queen Xie.

After hearing this, His Royal Highness King Jing was naturally angry.

"Uncle, do you really want to be so ruthless?"

"Your Highness, it's not that I'm ruthless, it's that I can't let the emperor's conspiracy succeed and make our Xie family fall apart."

At this time, in the East Palace, the eighth prince was helping the prince deal with political affairs.

In the past few years, the emperor has asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to review some recitals and deal with some political affairs.

"Big brother, what do you think of Seventh Brother's appointment as Shang Shuling?"

The crown prince was watching the recital, and when he heard the question of the eighth prince, he didn't think about it and said, "It's good." ”

Hearing the prince say this, the eighth prince sighed helplessly in his heart, and then opened his mouth and asked, "Big brother, what do you think of Seventh Brother?" ”

"Seventh brother?" The crown prince didn't understand why the eighth prince suddenly asked this, he raised his eyes and looked at the eighth prince in confusion, "Eighth brother, what's wrong with seventh brother?" ”

"Big brother, didn't you notice it at all?"

The prince looked dazed: "What did you find?" ”

Eighth Prince: "......" He always thought that the eldest brother knew about the ambition of the seventh brother, but he didn't take the seventh brother in his eyes, so he never told him about the seventh brother. Unexpectedly, he looked down on the eldest brother, and the eldest brother didn't notice the ambition of the seventh brother at all.

"Eighth brother, what should I find?"

"Seventh brother's ambition." The eighth prince never expected the crown prince to be so dull. In a phrase that the tenth brother often says, it's simple!

The prince asked with a puzzled face: "The ambition of the seventh brother, what ambition does the seventh brother have?" ”

The eighth prince was speechless, and then spoke: "Big brother, the seventh brother is also a son-in-law, do you think he doesn't mean anything about the throne?" ”

He asked again: "Even if the seventh brother doesn't have it, do you think the queen mother doesn't have it?" Do you think the queen will willingly let her own son only be a prince? ”

"Eighth brother, have you thought too much......"

The eighth prince interrupted the crown prince's words: "Big brother, it's not that I think too much, but you think too little, don't you forget that the queen mother is the concubine of the Zhenguo Mansion, do you really think she will willingly let her son be a prince?" ”

"Queen Mother, she doesn't have this mind......" The prince said this very unconfidently.

Hearing the crown prince say this, the eighth prince knew in his heart.

"Big brother, you know it in your heart, but you just don't want to admit it, right?"

The prince suddenly fell silent.

"Big brother, it's not that I'm provoking the relationship between you and the queen mother, but that the seventh brother is the queen mother's biological son, and you are just the queen mother's nephew." The eighth prince emphasized, "The most important thing is that the queen is a concubine, and the first queen is a concubine. Big brother, do you really think that the queen mother treats the former queen as her own sister? Do you really think that the queen mother has no problem with the first queen? ”

The crown prince looked at the eighth prince, opened his mouth, and finally let out a sigh: "Alas......"

"Big brother, my father suddenly let the seventh brother serve as Shang Shuling, what do you think the seventh brother and the queen mother will think?"

"As long as my uncle is on my side, the queen mother and the seventh brother are not afraid." The crown prince knew what the eighth prince was worried about, and smiled at him soothingly, "Don't worry, my uncle will always support me, and he will never change his mind to support the queen mother and seventh brother." ”

"Big brother, Zhen Guogong is a smart person, he will never abandon you and run halfway to support Seventh Brother, but the Queen Mother and Seventh Brother will not give up."

"Uncle will take care of it." The prince smiled slightly, "I don't need to worry about the affairs of the queen mother and the seventh brother. ”

"Big brother, are you really not afraid that Zhen Guogong will change his mind and support Seventh Brother at all?"

The prince smiled meaningfully: "Don't be afraid, because my uncle will not put the Zhenguo Mansion in danger!" ”

When the eighth prince heard this, a look of shock appeared in his eyes.

It seems that the eldest brother doesn't know anything, it's that he underestimates the eldest brother!
