Zhu Gaochi and his brothers left Zhu Shangbing's residence and returned to his palace. After ousting the palace guests, the three brothers talked quietly.
Zhu Gaosui casually picked up a Jiangxi tribute orange on the table, broke it open without peeling it, and said while eating, "Brother, do you think Old Sixteen will understand what you said?"
Zhu Gaoxu snatched the orange and stuffed it into his mouth, "Brother didn't say anything? Is there anything you don't understand?"
Zhu Gaosui rolled his eyes and continued to pick up another orange.
Zhu Gaochi said thoughtfully, "You will understand when you need to understand. If he pretends to be confused, he will never understand!"
"What are you talking about? You are so babbling!" Zhu Gaoxu looked at the two brothers and glared, "What are you trying to do in riddles? Are you hiding something from me?"
"Oh, second brother!" Zhu Gaosui pulled the other person, looked out, and whispered, "Keep your voice down!" He said, leaning against the other person's ear, "Brother is giving Lao Shiliu's eye drops, you didn't
figure it out?"
"Ah!" Zhu Gaoxu seemed to understand and nodded, "Can I not see it?"
His appearance directly made Zhu Gaochi laugh. But after the smile passed, his face turned horrifyingly gloomy.
"Boss, what's wrong with you?" Zhu Gaoxu saw something wrong with his expression and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
"After all, he is also the lord of a vassal, and the Qin vassal is a powerful vassal of the Ming Dynasty. It is the longest and strongest among the kings!" Zhu Gaochi said in a low voice, "But your highness actually rejected the direct eldest son in front of the emperor's grandfather.
System, I chose Lao Shiqi!" Remember the website address m.wxsy.
"Humph, Old Seventeen got a big bargain!" Zhu Gaoxu said with a snort.
"His Royal Highness Taisun established a new king with all his words. The ministers did not dare to object, and the emperor's grandfather even spoke for him!" Zhu Gaochi seemed not to have heard Zhu Gaoxu's words, and said worriedly, "This is so intriguing!
"
Zhu Gaosui also said, "Grandpa Huang really loves him so much. We are all his grandsons, but compared with that man, we are nothing!"
Zhu Gaochi smiled and said, "Now, he changes the king's title at will before he ascends the throne. Will we still have a good life in the future?"
Zhu Gaoxu ate the last piece of orange, looked at the boss, then looked at the third child, his eyes widened, "What will happen in the future? Boss, let me tell you. Although I usually don't admire you, but if one day, someone else wants to ask
If you are bullied by that coward like Old Sixteen, I will definitely help you stand up!"
As he spoke, he waved his fist and said, "Our family has always bullied others, how can anyone else bully us?"
"Haha!" Zhu Gaochi laughed suddenly, "Second brother, second brother, you are really" He said, as if laughing so hard that tears came out, "If this happens to you and me one day, will you really help me vent my anger? I
It’s too late to see you snickering!”
Zhu Gaosui also laughed, "Second brother, go help! My brother will never stop you!"
Zhu Gaoxu looked at them again, grabbed an orange and took a bite, "Huh! You two seem to have taken the wrong medicine!"
~~
When the new king of Qin returned to his fiefdom, the emperor's grandson came out of the palace to see him off.
The old man, on the other hand, summoned his subjects in the palace.
Because King Zhu Xiang of Qin passed away, the palace was somewhat sad. After all, he was the legitimate second son of the old man and Queen Ma, so everyone in the palace was mourning in plain clothes.
The palace city in winter becomes increasingly silent.
In the Fengtian Hall, the light was a little dark. The old man was afraid of the cold as he got older, so all the gaps in the doors and windows were sealed with brown paper so that no wind could get through.
The old man was leaning on a lounge chair, covered with a fur.
Five steps away from his feet, there was a prostrate figure, Commander He Guangyi of the Jinyi Guards.
"The royal guards in Xi'an report that the death of His Royal Highness the King of Qin is probably a little bit..." He Guangyi lowered his head and became more humble, not daring to speak the words.
The old man closed his eyes and clutched the fur tightly with both hands, his veins exposed, "Is something strange?"
"Yes!" He Guangyi gritted his teeth and said, "The emperor's grandson secretly warned the King of Qin when he went to Xi'an, and used Xu Xingzu as an example to tell the King of Qin to be careful of evildoers!"
Xu Xingzu was the old man's lifelong cook. Although he was a cook, the old man never treated him harshly. Even if he made some minor mistakes, he was very tolerant.
When King Zhu Fan of the Jin Dynasty went to war, he whipped the cook because the food he cooked was not delicious. When the old man found out, he was scolded.
The cook is the closest person to their heavenly family, and the person who is most likely to harm them. In the twenty-three years since he conquered the world, no matter who makes a mistake, he will be punished according to the law. However, if he treats the cook differently, he will be attacked behind his back.
The old man's hands trembled slightly, "Keep talking!"
"The King of Qin was deeply touched after hearing His Highness's words. He also changed some of the people around him and paid special attention to his diet. He never ate outside except what was cooked by those close to him in the palace!"
"Moreover, after King Qin learned about Deng's incident, he did not want to see outsiders. He was surrounded by his cronies who had followed him for many years!"
"But this time King Qin was poisoned, and the poisoners were just ordinary three old women who worked in the kitchen! So I feel that there are many suspicions!"
"First, why do the three old women want to harm the King of Qin? They are all slaves born in the Qin vassal family, and their family members are all working in the Prince of Qin's palace. Those old women also have children and grandchildren, why do they risk the whole family to do this?
"
"Second, the food of the Prince of Ming Dynasty is of great importance. Before entering the food, there are three checks and five checks. From the selection of ingredients to the cooking, there are special personnel to watch. After the food is cooked, the poison must be carefully tested. How did this poison get into the King of Qin's body?
mouth!"
"Third, the prince was poisoned and died suddenly, which shows how violent the poison is. There are not many poisons like this in the world. Even if you search carefully, you may not be able to find it. How did three old women who had never left the palace find it?
?”
"Four, after three poisonous women poisoned the prince for a thousand years, they also took the poison and died. Although they left a suicide note, saying how cruel the prince was. But in my opinion, they couldn't get close to the prince at all. If they couldn't see him in person, how could they do it?
The grudge? Besides, they died like this, I always feel that it is a bit murderous and silenced."
Click, there was a sudden clear sound of wood breaking.
He Guangyi quickly lay down on the ground, not even daring to release his breath.
The old man actually broke the armrest of the recliner with his bare hands.
He struggled to sit up, his eyes were red, like a man-eating tiger.
"Go and investigate!" The old man suppressed his voice, but the words he spoke were as sharp as a knife cutting through iron armor, "The matter of burying the people in Prince Qin's palace will be dealt with later. We give you the power, Qin
Everyone in the palace has been arrested. You can investigate as you like, but you must find out any doubts!"
He Guangyi was trembling all over and was extremely frightened, but he still managed to speak, "I don't dare to deceive you. If it is as I expected, this matter will definitely not be found out!"
"You have to investigate even if you can't find out! Otherwise, you will be buried as a child!" the old man roared, "Whoever harmed our son, we will demand his blood to pay for it!"
Blood debt must be paid with blood! But can the source of this blood debt really be found?
The old man was thinking about all the suspects in his mind, but after much thought, he had no clue. In the Ming Dynasty, no one dared to harm his son. Those who he considered a threat had long been killed by him.
.
Those who could threaten his family have long since ceased to exist!
After all, who is he?
"There is one more thing that I dare not hide from Your Majesty!" He Guangyi said in a trembling voice.
The old man's eyes narrowed, like a lion before hunting, "Say!"
"His Royal Highness disguised himself in the disaster-stricken areas of the Central Plains and went to Zhoukou."
Although he ordered not to tell the old man about Zhu Yunxi's assassination, the people in his team did not dare not to tell it or tell it.
Although He Guangyi is Zhu Yunxi's confidant, the old man has long said that matters related to the safety of the emperor's grandson must be reported. Otherwise, if he dares to conceal it, he will not live until the day Zhu Yunxi ascends the throne.
"This is the second time the emperor's grandson has been assassinated. The assassin is also a dead man, with poison hidden in his teeth!"
Oh, the old man stood up directly and turned over the fur covering his body.
"It's not just that someone harmed our son, they also harmed our grandson!" The old man gritted his teeth with hatred and his face was horrifying.
Zhu Yunxi was the only one in his heart.
It is his current life and the basis for his survival!
"The guards of the East Palace found a mark on the assassin!"
The old man suddenly looked sharply, "What mark?"
"Qing Ji!" He Guangyi said.
"What is that?" The old man paced back and forth on the ground, "Have you checked it?"
"I've checked!" He Guangyi said, sweating profusely, "It's a clothing store in Huai'an!"
With a thud, the old man sat down slumped, his face bloodless.
"Your Majesty!" He Guangyi shouted, "Come, come quickly!"
