Yuan Hai's body trembled, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he quickly looked away, refusing to look at Zhu Yun.
The reaction at this moment was the most obvious and direct, and could not be concealed at all.
Zhu Yun's heart suddenly sank to the bottom of the valley. The cloud of doubt in his heart instantly turned into a violent storm, stirring in his chest. Yuan Hai's city was so horrified when he heard these probing words!
As expected, there is a deadly secret in Shen You's body!
He stared closely at Yuan Hai's face, as if he was waiting for Yuan Hai to tell the truth.
Yuan Hai was caught off guard, and the clues were revealed. When he came to his senses, he immediately regretted it. Although Zhu Yun was usually gentle, he was actually smart and sharp. It was clear that he was deceived just now, so how could he be fooled?
"Your Highness is joking." Yuan Hai gave a stiff smile: "This matter was the emperor's idea, and I don't know what happened. Besides, Shen You and I have a mediocre relationship and don't have much contact. How could I know that Shen You What’s the secret?”
Zhu Yunjun's face was serious and his eyes were sharp. At this moment, he looked very much like Emperor Qing'an: "I'm not joking. At this moment, my father-in-law is still trying his best to hide it. My father-in-law is afraid of revealing secrets and angering his father, so he is not afraid of me, the prince." Isn’t it quick?”
Yuan Hai: "..."
This was the first time Zhu Yun showed his power as a prince in front of him.
Yes, the Zhu Yun in front of him is not only his nephew and son-in-law, but also the Prince of the East Palace of the Da Qi Dynasty and the future Emperor of Da Qi. The Yuan family is facing a situation where military power has been weakened. If they want to maintain their wealth and power in the future, they will have to rely on Zhu Yun. .
He had to keep Zhu Yun tightly... However, his father repeatedly told him not to tell the prince this secret... Wait, even if he didn't tell it, this secret might not be able to be maintained forever, and the mastermind behind the scenes would be willing to let it go... …
Yuan Hai's thoughts were ups and downs, and his expression kept changing. He finally made up his mind and lowered his voice and said: "Forget it, I will tell Your Highness the truth of the matter. This matter must not be known to anyone else. The Crown Princess cannot tell, and the Queen's side, let alone You have to hide everything. Otherwise, your grandfather is afraid that he will kick me out of the house, and the emperor will not let me go."
Zhu Yun's heartbeat was racing, but his expression was calm: "I will never tell anyone what we said today."
Yuan Hai gritted his teeth: "This matter has to start more than 20 years ago..."
This is a long story. The past that has been sealed in dust for more than 20 years slowly comes to light as Yuan Hai talks in a low voice.
We talked for almost half an hour.
After Yuan Hai finished speaking, he wiped the cold sweat that broke out from time to time on his forehead with his sleeves. He smiled bitterly at His Highness the Crown Prince, who looked very ugly, and said: "Your Highness, I have told you everything. You must never do it in front of the Emperor. What a leak! Otherwise, the Emperor will definitely be angry with me."
Zhu Yun said nothing. He was like a stone sculpture, motionless.
Yuan Hai looked at Zhu Yun like this, and felt heavy in his heart. After a long time, he sighed: "I know that His Highness must feel very uncomfortable after hearing this secret."
"When I found out about your father and the Jiang family, I was extremely angry and thought about getting rid of the Jiang family. However, your mother was about to give birth at that time and her pregnancy was not good. If the Jiang family made a mistake, your mother would be alarmed. Your father The king doesn’t dare to take risks, so I have to endure it.”
"The Jiang family gave birth to Shen You a long time ago, and I had my suspicions. Your father ordered Eunuch Yang to take a blood test for a parentage test. No one would have thought that he would deny his son. I thought Shen You was Shen Rong's posthumous son. Just ignore it."
"Who would have thought that things would reach this point..."
yes!
No one could have imagined that Emperor Qing'an would let his own blood flow outside.
Zhu Yun closed his eyes forcefully. Scenes of the past flashed through his mind. Shen You first entered Prince Yan's Mansion and was seriously injured to protect Prince Yan. Shen You tried his best to protect him in the battle at the imperial mausoleum. Shen You also fought in the battle at the border gate. Fight hard and never retreat...
The chaotic thoughts finally settled on Shen You's indifferent and handsome face.
Yuan Hai's voice rang in his ears: "You can't touch Shen You now. Your Highness will be patient for a while. Wait three to five years and find an opportunity to let Shen You die on the battlefield..."
Zhu Yun's blood surged to his temples, he suddenly opened his eyes and said sternly: "Shut up!"
Yuan Hai was startled by the anger bursting out of Zhu Yun's eyes, and all the next words were stuck in his throat.
"Father-in-law, listen up." Zhu Yun suppressed his anger and said word by word: "The Yuan family must not take action against Shen You! Otherwise, I will be the first to spare the Yuan family!"
Yuan Hai's heart was beating so fast that he couldn't look directly into Zhu Yun's bright and sharp eyes, and lowered his head slightly: "I just said casually, since His Highness has not got rid of Shen You's heart, I don't dare to take action randomly."
An uncle and nephew for more than 20 years, and a son-in-law for several years, Zhu Yun knew Yuan Hai very well.
Although the generals of the Yuan family hold military power, they stay away from the court. Only Yuan Hai has been an official in the court since he was young. He has always been loyal to King Yan, and he is the most utilitarian.
With Yuan Hai's personality, he will definitely regard Shen You as a serious problem. What he said just now is definitely Yuan Hai's heartfelt voice. He really plans to get rid of Shen You secretly.
Zhu Yunjun's face was as serious as ever before, and there was a chill in his voice: "I'm not being pretentious. My father-in-law will remember everything I said today. From now on, my father-in-law will keep this secret deep in his heart and will never mention it again. More Don't have any dissatisfaction with Shen You."
"Otherwise, it will bring great disaster to the Yuan family."
"My father cannot tolerate ministers who want too much power, and I, the prince, will never tolerate the bold and reckless in-laws."
"For the sake of the Yuan family, for the sake of the queen mother and the crown princess, please father-in-law keep this in mind."
Yuan Hai's face was expressionless and he responded in a low voice.
It was breathtakingly quiet in the dormitory, and the only sounds could be heard being each other's breathing.
After a long time, Zhu Yun finally opened his mouth: "I want to be alone for a while."
Yuan Haiqiang cheered up, resigned and left.
…
Yuan Hai left quickly and the door was gently closed.
Zhu Yun was lying on the bed with his eyes closed tightly. His chest kept rising and falling, which showed that his mood was ups and downs at this time and was by no means calm.
The chamberlain knocked on the door: "Your Highness, it's time to drink medicine. This servant will come in to serve..."
Zhu Yun didn't even think about it and shouted angrily: "Get out of here! No one is allowed to come in without my order."
The waiter was frightened by his master's anger and rolled out of the house without daring to make any move.
An hour later, Crown Princess Yuan Min came. Seeing that the dormitory was closed and the servants were standing outside the door tremblingly, Yuan Min felt a thump in her heart and was about to knock on the door.
The chamberlain hurriedly whispered: "Your Majesty, Your Highness was furious before and no one was allowed to enter."
Yuan Min frowned and slowly lowered his raised hand.
Yuan Min stood outside the door for a moment before turning and leaving.
