Chapter 78 The birth of the fourth prince, who is the Night Master (please vote for me)
Establish a reserve!
What a big deal!
But... how much does it have to do with Zheng Xiu?
It doesn’t seem to matter!
"Establishing a reserve is a good thing. Establishing a reserve as soon as possible will stabilize the country and stabilize the people of the world. But, what does it have to do with me?"
Zheng Xiu said it matter of course.
Who he chooses to be the crown prince has nothing to do with him on the surface.
Zheng Xiu's matter-of-fact answer made the second prince, who was full of emotions, furious.
"Yes! It has nothing to do with you!" The second prince looked unhappy: "But do you really think you can be alone?"
"Are you going to ask me in your next sentence if I know how to write the word "death"?
Zheng Xiu immediately became energetic and raised his head to ask.
The sudden interruption caused the second prince's mood to plummet and he froze on the spot.
He was indeed thinking about it, but he didn't dare to say it out loud.
"Mr. Zheng, we, plain men, don't tell secret words——" When the second prince was about to say something, Zheng Xiu waved his hand and interrupted his next words: "No! The second prince is serious, we are just ordinary people.
Rich businessman, the second prince is above you, and you and I are not really wise people. I hope you will say some secret words to Zheng that are hard to understand at this moment."
The second prince was stunned.
Zheng Xiu laughed again and said: "The reason why you came to watch the Heavenly Prison even though you knew you would be put on the table is just to make your other two brothers think that I, Zheng Xiu, will be persuaded by you to stand by you on the matter of establishing the crown prince.
Bian. But since you know your two brothers, how can you not know their character? Will they believe that I, Mr. Zheng, can be easily persuaded by you?"
"You came here for nothing, who would believe it?"
"How can I, Zheng, have such a big influence?"
"You overestimate me, Zheng Xiu!"
"Our little Zheng family keeps to ourselves and does not break the law. We take the initiative to pay more taxes every year and do good deeds to help the people every month."
"Whoever sees me doesn't praise me in his heart, Mr. Zheng Dashan, why should I wade through these muddy waters?"
The second prince was speechless.
Zheng Xiu continued: "Besides, the emperor's will is unpredictable. How can you be sure that the Holy Emperor's decision to establish a crown prince has something to do with me, Zheng? This crown prince has to be established. What's the difference if he is established earlier or later? Born in the royal family, it is determined
So true!”
Hearing this, the second prince fell into silence. He suddenly remembered something and raised his eyebrows: "Yes, ten days ago, a noble concubine in the palace gave birth to a son."
"When my father first learned that he was a prince, he went to check it out happily. But in the end... he came back depressed."
"Why is this?"
Zheng Xiu was stunned when he heard this. The second prince's mellow tone made him curious.
But Zheng Xiu knew that it was useless to know too much about the emperor's family affairs, so he immediately waved his hand: "The prison is gloomy and full of bad luck. Your Highness is a noble person. It is not suitable to stay for too long. It is better to leave early!"
The implication is that the words are not speculative and are driving away guests.
The second prince calmed down and knew that Zheng Xiu was determined and would not waver. It would not be good for either of them to talk any more.
So he bowed his hands to Zheng Xiugong and stepped out of the prison door.
But before leaving, the second prince did not look back and whispered: "This palace believes that the killing of Princess Yurun is related to Ye Weiyang. If it wasn't you, it could only be Ye Weiyang."
Zheng Xiu sneered.
"Whether you believe it or not, Lord Marquis." The second prince sneered: "Master Marquis, I don't believe it. You have no grudges against Ye Weiyang! After all, you clearly know that the 'Night Master' who is now in charge of Ye Weiyang is
The current national advisor is the same military advisor who abandoned General Zheng and fled back to the imperial city alone twenty years ago!"
What!
Zheng Xiu looked at the back of the second prince in surprise.
The second prince waved his sleeves and left.
He didn't know that his last words, which seemed to be just words to vent his anger, would bring the greatest impact and confusion to Zheng Xiu tonight.
The matter of establishing the crown prince obviously put a lot of pressure on the second prince.
There are only three months left until March 3rd.
In these three months, in order to become the crown prince, the three brothers will have to fight fiercely!
Either you die or I live!
This is the tragedy of being born in an emperor's family!
But at the moment, he doesn't have many chess pieces in his hand. If he can't win over the Zheng family, the second prince will be at a disadvantage in this battle for the crown prince.
After failing to win over him, the second prince's eyes turned violent, and he walked out of the Wangtiantai Prison Camp accompanied by his subordinates.
There were many street vendors and vagabonds around the prison camp. They seemed to have no intention of moving around, but they were quietly watching the second prince's back as he returned to the palace.
"It seems that the master is in some trouble."
Not far away, the coachman was dressed to celebrate the 13th, wearing a bamboo hat to cover his face, smoking a cigarette, and looking sad.
As soon as the smoke rings floated out, a raven looked at this side warily. Qingpi was so frightened that he quickly patted away the condensed smoke rings.
As soon as Erniang woke up, he hurried out to solicit customers.
Making money is out of the question, you have to seize the time to practice your skills.
Watching the second prince leave, Qing Shisan stared worriedly up to the sky nine feet high.
Boo hoo hoo.
In the city, the undulating whistle is still there, it is the familiar voice of Zheng's cyclist, which is loud and clear throughout the city.
…
Zheng Xiu was a little surprised by the second prince's visit.
It seemed that there was an invisible hand behind the scenes pushing the second prince.
Everything is too clever and deliberate.
But the second prince took the initiative and came to persuade Mr. Zheng.
Among all the information, what surprised Zheng Xiu the most was that he actually learned the identity of the mysterious Night Lord from the second prince.
Is he actually the military advisor who survived the Northern Barbarian Rebellion?
Didn’t he say that he was crazy and died?
He single-handedly created Ye Weiyang?
And became a night master?
Why?
This matter was the most difficult for Zheng Xiu to figure out.
He has thousands of reasons to believe that Ye Weiyang's night master will be the illegitimate son Wei Chen.
Nor would he have thought that it was the crazy strategist who survived.
What really happened twenty years ago?
Zheng Xiu was puzzled.
"Dad really died on the battlefield?"
He has heard Zheng Haoran's legend countless times.
He also dug the Zheng family's floor many times.
Last week, Lao Wei was seriously ill and came to Di Zi Lao in person to ask him three questions.
The second question mentioned the death of my father.
As the saying goes, when a person is about to die, his words are also good. Zheng Xiu really believed at that time that what Old Wei said was true. Otherwise, if he had said it for no reason, it would have no benefit and no effect.
However, after the butterfly effect occurred, Zheng Xiu was a little unsure.
If the second prince is telling the truth, his imprisonment and his being framed as the murderer of Princess Yurun are all related to Ye Weiyang.
So, whose side is Fengbei on?
This result was a bit difficult for Zheng Xiu to accept.
In addition to this explosive information, Zheng Xiu drank hot tea and enjoyed the cold wind blowing on his face, carefully reviewing what the second prince said.
There are three important pieces of information:
First, Zheng is now more awesome in the eyes of many people than Zheng Xiu himself imagined;
Second, on March 3 next year, Old Wei will appoint the crown prince at the ancestor worship ceremony;
3. A certain noble concubine gave birth to a prince ten days ago. At first, Old Wei was very happy, but later after "checking", he returned home depressed.
The first two things are obviously important.
The third point, the reason why Zheng Xiu took it to heart was that even the second prince found it strange and said it "accidentally".
The description is really weird.
So what is it about the newly born prince that makes Old Wei dissatisfied?
Congenital malformation?
Ugly?
In other words, he looks like a prince on the surface, but is actually a princess?
I wanted to see the majestic mountains, but they turned into hills and valleys, so I came back depressed?
Zheng Xiu always felt that this was a bit anti-human.
It doesn't make sense.
However, due to the lack of direct information and speculation based on thin air, it was difficult for Zheng Xiu to come up with the truth.
"Establish a reserve, establish a reserve! What does it have to do with me! Ha!"
After a long time, Zheng Xiu sneered and closed his eyes on the warm Taishi chair.
This matter really has nothing to do with him.
He doesn't care who the prince is.
He didn't care about the reason why Wei suddenly made up his mind to establish a reserve when he was still strong.
With Old Wei's imperial scheming, how could he not know that once the crown prince is announced on March 3rd, it will lead to a deadly fight among the three princes?
Who doesn't want to be the future emperor?
Even if the "Crown Prince" is just a painted cake, this cake can only be eaten if Old Wei dies.
But no one can resist this cake, which is so big and fragrant.
Each of the three princes wanted to walk in the palace and be respectfully called "Crown Prince".
As for the other two, if they can survive, they will barely be able to become "princes" in the future.
However, Zheng Xiu speculated that no matter who became the prince, the other two would have little chance of surviving. No, it would be three, including the newly born new prince.
Let’s take the simplest example.
Old Wei's brothers in the past are all dead, died in various accidents.
The most cold-blooded one is the imperial family.
The Taishi's chair swayed slightly, making a squeaking sound.
He raised his hand to fiddle with his beloved golden vine, and the strands of golden strands exuded an aura of wealth and wealth.
"The current Zheng family seems to be beyond my imagination."
"But getting bigger is not necessarily a good thing."
"As for the matter of establishing a prince, it seems that someone wants to involve the Zheng family."
No, no, no.
Zheng Xiu was thinking deeply and suddenly opened his eyes, full of doubts.
He thought of Wei Chen again.
With terrifying perseverance, Wang Cangyun broke into Chang Dark and tried to save the child Wei Chen at the expense of himself.
If he is not the "Night Lord", then where is Wei Chen now?
For twenty years, disappeared?
Does Old Wei know that Wei Chen survived the tragedy in Baili Village twenty years ago?
Thinking of the end, Zheng Xiu couldn't help but smile bitterly.
After pondering over and over again, it seems that there is only one way to find out the answer.
