Because of Mo Li, Han Jiangxue knew very early that the emperor's real favorite candidate for crown prince was the young seventeenth prince.

And for so many years, Huangshi has been well hidden, and the method of protection for the seventeenth prince is also the most suitable. But no matter how cautious you are, there is a saying that paper cannot contain fire. There has never been such a thing in this world.

Airtight walls.

Mo Li knew the emperor's true thoughts, and there must be others who could guess it, so it was only natural that someone would take action against the seventeenth prince. Especially now that the prince was under house arrest, it would be best if someone wanted to get rid of the seventeenth prince.

opportunity.

However, the seventeenth prince had no special background, nothing much different from the other princes, and no so-called amazing talent, but why could the emperor work so hard to hand over the entire Dongming Dynasty?

In the hands of such a small child?

Han Jiangxue couldn't figure this out anyway. She muttered it but just said it casually, not thinking that Mo Li could know the reason.

However, what Han Jiangxue didn't expect was that Mo Li had actually found out the inside story.

"The seventeenth prince is actually not the emperor's son." Mo Li said nothing, but his words were truly shocking.

Han Jiangxue couldn't believe her ears, and instantly retorted: "How is it possible? If the seventeenth prince is not the emperor's son, why would the emperor go to such trouble to pass the throne to him?"

"Listen to me." Mo Li looked calm and signaled Jiang Xue not to worry.

Seeing that there was more to come and Mo Li's expression was quite calm, Han Jiangxue naturally put away some surprise subconsciously and waited for what Mo Li would say.

"The seventeenth prince should actually be the emperor's grandson. His father was an illegitimate son of the emperor. The emperor had not succeeded to the throne at that time. Before his wedding, there was a woman he loved very much."

At this moment, Mo Li simply dropped a piece of shocking news that was even more shocking than what he said before. Han Jiangxue was so shocked that she couldn't even speak. She simply didn't say anything, but stared at Mo Li eagerly, waiting.

More inside information.

It turned out that before the emperor succeeded to the throne, there was a woman he was very fond of. However, the woman was from a rather humble background. Even the emperor who was still the prince at that time had no chance of being a concubine. But the emperor loved that woman very much.

Originally, he wanted to wait until he succeeded to the throne to find a way to give the woman a better position so that his beloved could be by his side.

But that woman was very resolute, and she didn't know the emperor's identity when she first met him. After she knew everything, she left alone on the occasion of the emperor's wedding, and there was no news from that time.

This matter has always been regarded as an absolute palace secret. After the woman disappeared, no one mentioned it again. Almost all the people around the emperor were changed at that time, and no one knew about the emperor anymore.

There was once such a secret period.

In fact, the emperor never gave up his secret search for the woman after he took the throne. It's just that there has never been any news.

Seven years ago, the emperor spent all his efforts and finally found the whereabouts of the woman. But what was waiting for him was a handful of loess.

It turned out that the woman was pregnant when she left that year, and then gave birth to a baby boy. When the baby boy was ten months old, the woman died of illness, and she entrusted the baby to her before she died.

He was given to a trustworthy friend to raise him on his behalf.

The family did their best to raise the boy, took good care of him, and married him a good wife. Their life was pretty good. Unfortunately, when the emperor made trouble and wanted to find his beloved,

When a man and the son he gave birth to, he didn’t want to but it was still a step too late.

Unfortunately, the child born to the emperor and his beloved contracted smallpox that year, and the child's wife was also infected, and the couple died of smallpox together.

The emperor was deeply distressed, but there was nothing he could do about it. The sudden loss of his beloved wife and son caused his persistence in decades to almost completely collapse. Fortunately, his son also left him a grandson who was just one month old.

The one-month-old little boy naturally became the emperor's only remaining spiritual sustenance.

He brought the little baby back to the palace, secretly exchanged it for the son born to one of the palace concubines, and raised his beloved child beside him. This little baby became the seventeenth prince.

After hearing all this, Han Jiangxue was really speechless for a long time. She never thought that the selfish and ruthless emperor would have such an infatuation. She never thought that because of such an inside story, the emperor would even want to abolish her.

He married the prince and put the child of his beloved and his child on the throne.

"Okay, actually I think the emperor is really a little too paranoid."

After a while, Han Jiangxue said with emotion: "If he wanted to pass the throne to his beloved woman and his son, this would be easier for people to accept. But when his son is gone, he insists on giving up this obsession.

When it comes to his son's son, at this point, even he himself probably can't tell whether it is a guilt for his beloved wife and children or a demonic obstacle in his own heart."

"Onlookers are clear, but the authorities are confused. Perhaps these words are most appropriate to apply to him." Mo Li agreed with Jiang Xue's point of view, and then said: "Now that the seventeenth prince is dead, the last trace of obsession in the emperor's heart is gone.

There is no direction to continue, I’m afraid there will be big changes in the palace soon!”

The palace changes that Mo Li mentioned were not just the overt and covert fights for the throne among the princes, but also included various changes in behavior that no one could have expected after the emperor's mentality changed.

"So, does the death of the seventeenth prince have anything to do with what happened to us this time?" Han Jiangxue would be more concerned about themselves, of course. Since the seventeenth prince died, this matter must have nothing to do with the emperor, but would it?

Is it related to the fact that she was falsely poisoned this time?

Mo Li shook his head and said: "At present, it seems that the death of the seventeenth prince has nothing to do with our incident, but it is still unknown what will happen in the future.

You have to look at everything while walking, and don’t be careless either.”

After hearing this, Han Jiangxue nodded slightly and couldn't help but think deeply. It seemed that the drama they were going to watch in the dark this time was far bigger than they had imagined before.

I don’t know how this drama will play out, and I don’t know what it will be like in the end, but Han Jiangxue has a vague premonition that because of the death of the seventeenth prince, all the drama will probably become more intense!

After gathering their spirits, Han Jiangxue and Mo Li went to the garden again and continued working on the area they had just started yesterday. However, in the afternoon, someone from the Han family suddenly came to summon them.

Han Feng was not in the mansion at this time, but it was rare that Han Jing happened to be at home at this time.

The palace attendants sent a message to Han Jiangxue to enter the palace immediately to meet the emperor, saying that the emperor had something to ask Han Jiangxue.

Han Jing secretly marveled at the fact that the seventeenth prince had just died, and the emperor was grieving excessively and was extremely emotionally unstable. He heard that many people had died because of the seventeenth prince's death without any reason.

Isn't the emperor currently trying his best to thoroughly investigate the cause of the seventeenth prince's death? Why did he suddenly want to see his sister for no reason?

Fortunately, his sister was not in the palace at this moment, so Han Jing breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what, it would probably be no good to enter the palace. If Jiang Xue was here, of course it would be impossible not to resist the order, but now that he was gone, he just arrived here.

One thing.

He quickly explained that Han Jiangxue was not in the mansion now. She left the capital early yesterday morning and went to seek medical treatment elsewhere. He was also patient enough to explain the situation that the girl was poisoned, so that the palace could be reassured.

People go back to pay errands.

However, after Han Jing explained all the circumstances, the palace official did not buy it and insisted that a search confirmed that Han Jiangxue was indeed not there. Otherwise, he would not be able to return to the palace to resume his duties.

As a result, Han Jing was naturally very angry. Could it be that the dignified Han family could search just by asking? In this way, wouldn't a small eunuch be able to suppress the Han family at will?

What's more, the emperor's decree did not include a decree that people must be searched if no one can be found. These palace officials had other agendas.

"How presumptuous, who do you think our Han family is? I said that my sister is not here right now. Yesterday, so many people saw with their own eyes that King Mo took her out to seek medical treatment. If you don't believe it, you can go to King Mo's Mansion and ask.

Is King Mo still in the mansion now?"

Han Jing was very annoyed. Of course, he could not be manipulated at will: "If you insist on searching, you can do it, but you must first go back to the palace to ask for the imperial edict for the search! Our Han family has not fallen to the point where even a eunuch can do whatever he wants.

The point!”

Han Jing's words left no room for negotiation. Seeing this, the eunuch could neither advance nor retreat. When the two sides were in a stalemate, the sixth prince suddenly came to the door.

As soon as the Sixth Prince arrived, he asked about the situation and immediately waved the eunuch who was delivering the order to temporarily retreat.

Instead, he asked with great concern: "Mr. Han, I wonder what kind of poison my sister was poisoned with? Is it serious? Is her life in danger? Where have they gone to seek medical treatment? How can I help?

busy?"

Seeing the sixth prince like this, Han Jing couldn't get angry anymore, so he could only say: "I'm sorry, Prince Qing, I'm worried. My sister's condition is not very good. I can't tell you what kind of poison it is. I heard Mo Li say it's

This is an extremely rare poison, and there is no one who knows how to cure it near the capital, so early yesterday morning we went to a place called the Valley of Miracle Doctors. They were walking in a hurry at the time, and I didn’t know exactly where it was.

My father has been extremely anxious for two days and wants to know how my sister is doing now."

"So, you said that no one is here, how can you enter the palace? I didn't lie, but they just didn't believe it. They used this as an excuse to forcibly search my Han family. They don't know what they want to do!"

Han Jing complained endlessly. As soon as he finished speaking, he didn't expect that someone would come to the house again!
