Xie Duo's fierce gaze gradually became bewildered, and finally he staggered back a few steps, leaned against the wall, and squatted down slowly.
Although Li Ge was extremely anxious, he still quietly waited for the child in front of him to accept the reality.
"How will the queen mother decide?" Xie Duo lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Expel me from the palace? Or kill me?"
Li Ge saw that King Ling had no intention of resisting the sudden attack, so he took a step forward to cheer him up, and said in a deep voice, "Your Highness, death is not the worst outcome. It is obvious that the queen took this risk to murder the emperor." I have already hated you to the marrow, if you choose to give in at this moment, when the queen regains power, she will even reveal your true identity, and let you spend the rest of your life as a disgrace of the royal family."
Noticing that King Ling's clenched fists were trembling slightly, Elder Li Ge took a step forward, squatted beside him, pressed his shoulder lightly, and comforted him: "As long as you accept the edict tomorrow morning, Your Highness doesn't need to be afraid of anything." people."
"And then?" Xie Duo said in a muffled voice, "What do you want me to do with my mother?"
Old Li Ge frowned and said: "Your Highness, I am afraid that the Empress does not really regard you as her own child."
There was another dead silence.
Xie Duo suddenly sneered a few times: "She already knew? How early?"
Elder Li Ge whispered: "Maybe one or two years ago, maybe even earlier."
"Then you're just telling me now?" Xie Duo raised his head slowly, leaned against the wall and stood up, staring at Mr. Li Ge with eyes full of anger: "You're just telling me now? I'd rather not know anything and be in a daze In her hands!"
Li Ge frowned and said: "Your Highness, you have never been a person who would choose to escape."
"But I love them!" Xie Duo grabbed old Li Ge's front and lifted him up: "Does the sixth brother know? Did the mother tell him? Everyone is pretending? Only me, a fool, was kept in the dark." Is that right?"
Li Ge shook his head: "The old minister can't be sure."
Xie Duo let go of his front, grinned in pain and choked up: "Why did father do this?"
Li Ge said in a hoarse voice: "Your mother refused to stay with His Majesty, and His Majesty begged you repeatedly to keep you. The old minister thought that His Majesty just wanted to give you a higher status, so he made such a move. thoughts."
"Where's the premature baby?" Xie Duo asked in a low voice, "Is it still there?"
"He is very good and was raised by a wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River."
"Let him return to the queen mother, and I will give up the position of the crown prince to the sixth brother. Can the queen mother calm down?"
"Your Highness." Li Ge's face darkened: "This is not something that you can be happy after admitting your mistakes and subduing yourself. You can't just beg for the queen's mercy and kindness. There is only hatred between her and you, and there is no family affection. Between enemies, benevolence It is the privilege of the strong, you can consider how to deal with them after you take power, but you must not bow your head and hope that they will care about the past."
Xie Duo closed his eyes in pain: "Then what should I do?"
"Tomorrow morning, I will receive the imperial edict." Elder Li Ge said decisively: "Other matters, the old minister can take care of His Highness first."
Xie Duo looked up at him: "Why are you helping me? King Yan is the most orthodox heir."
Mr. Li Ge said sternly: "First of all, although His Royal Highness has a lot of prejudice against the old minister, it is impossible to deny that the old minister has never done anything against the emperor's order. His Majesty appointed you as the heir. You are the only candidate for the successor in the hearts of the veterans. Second, King Yan is upright but has shallow political opinions. If he succeeds to the throne, he may disturb the peace of the people. The generation of heroes of Chu, for the livelihood of the common people, the crown prince is none other than you."
Han Jiao was finally received by King Yan this morning.
King Yan lost some weight, his face was pale, Han Jiao didn't know how to comfort him for a while.
"I'm fine." Instead, it was King Yan who spoke first: "Father made a wise decision, Ninth Brother... is fine."
Han Jiao said in a low voice: "The only thing I don't want to hear is your eulogy. If you have any grievances, you can tell them all."
King Yan bent over in the armchair, rubbed his face, and said in a low voice: "I admit that the ninth brother is talented, but... but I don't understand..."
Han Jiao encouraged him to vent his anger: "There is no one else here."
"But I don't understand Father!" King Yan raised his head with resentment on his face: "Sir, didn't you notice it? All this seems to be a game arranged by Father, and Lao Qi and I are like Pawn, I found that those eyes that had been staring at me in the dark before were not testing whether I was upright and selfless, but were wholeheartedly waiting for me to make mistakes and embarrass myself, waiting to trample me into the mud!"
Han Jiao was slightly startled, then calmed down again, and did not respond with a sound.
King Yan's eyes were red, and his voice was hoarse and he said: "In the past, Emperor Father always taught me benevolence, generosity, integrity, and selflessness, but these days, I think of many things from the past, and suddenly realize that I have been used to letting Ah Duo take the lead since I was a child. Choosing to take away everything he is interested in, my father will never reprimand him for being domineering, but always praises my modesty, as if those benevolence, righteousness and morality are only used to restrain me. As long as I show the slightest thought of fighting , you will see the disappointed eyes of the father, the eyes seem to be staring at me all the time, I have been out of the palace for so many years, I still can't get rid of it."
"Even... even in today's situation, I'm still trying to find fault with myself."
"Your Highness, you have done nothing wrong."
King Yan shook his head, and said in a hoarse voice, "It's also a mistake that I'm not as talented as Ah Duo. It's the biggest mistake. I'm not worthy of my ambition, and I'm not worthy of Mr.'s help."
Han Jiao's heart was sour, and he comforted softly: "It is impossible for the country to run on the ability of the monarch alone. You have a heart for the common people, are courageous and hardworking, and are willing to listen to suggestions from all parties. These qualities are enough to realize your grand ambitions. Don't belittle yourself. .”
"These words can only make me more painful." Yan Wang took a deep breath, leaned back in the armchair, and said in despair: "I am willing to accept my fate, but I have no face to face those courtiers who have followed me for many years."
Han Jiao comforted: "Everything is still inconclusive. I think that His Highness King Ling's ambition is not here. After the emperor thinks it through, he may make concessions."
As soon as the words were finished, suddenly the voice of the little eunuch asking for peace came from outside the door, as if there was a secret report.
King Yan let him in, said that Mr. Han was not an outsider, and asked the little eunuch to report the news in person——
The Ninth Prince received the imperial edict today!
Han Jiao didn't expect the slap in the face to come so quickly, and he was too embarrassed to look up at King Yan.
After the eunuch retreated, King Yan sighed softly: "The one who should come has come."
"Your Highness..."
"Sir, you don't need to persuade me." King Yan lowered his head, "I've already figured it out, why don't you talk to the ninth brother, and let him arrange me and the seventh brother properly in the future, so as not to cause turmoil in the court."
Han Jiao solemnly promised, seeing that King Yan didn't want to talk any more, he had no choice but to leave first.
Riding a donkey back to the alley of his house, he was blocked by the crowd.
Han Jiao led the donkey and walked ahead to clear the way.
When I got closer, I realized that the people blocking the alley were all girls!
Han Jiao's heart shuddered. Could it be that his mother arranged dozens of blind dates for him in one go, and they accidentally set them on the same day?
Han Jiao lowered his head and kept yelling "excuse me". Finally, he got out of the crowd through the path given by the girls. He raised his head and was about to rush towards the door, when he suddenly found a tall and tall figure standing at the door.
Hearing the footsteps of the donkey behind him, the man turned his head sharply, and the delicate profile of his profile instantly triggered a small cheer from the girls behind Han Jiao.
Han Jiao: "..."
Don't worry too much, it turned out to be the scene of the big boss's fan meeting.
"Why is Your Highness here!" Han Jiao quickly stepped forward to meet him. There was nowhere to find him, and the boss came to the door by himself.
Xie Duo turned around and said lightly, "I'll come and see you."
"Look at me?" Han Jiao hurriedly invited the boss to come in and talk.
Xie Duo shook his head: "Send the donkey back, you can relax with me."
Han Jiao: "..."
As for the character of the big boss, he was really raised by the emperor to be unscrupulous. He was ordered to become the prince of Chu in the morning, but he slipped out of the palace at noon and asked him to press the road.
There was no other way, Han Jiao could only obediently obey, tied up the donkey, and followed the big boss all the way through the alley, throwing away the crowd of onlookers.
The two walked in the empty alley.
Han Jiao felt that the boss was not normal. Although he walked beside him expressionlessly, there was an inexplicable depressive emotion that made people panic.
Isn't this kid still sulking because he was forced to accept the imperial decree?
Han Jiao probed in a low voice: "Is Your Highness feeling depressed and sneaking out of the palace to get some air?"
"I'll come to see you." Xie Duo emphasized again.
When it was over, Han Jiao was so flattered that the two signal lights disguised as ears were about to go off again. He lowered his head and muttered in a low voice: "Today is a big day, why can Your Highness come out of the palace to see me? If you have something to do, you can tell me another day."
Xie Duo was still expressionless: "I'm going to see my mother in the future, and I may not be able to see her again in the future."
Han Jiao was startled when he heard the words, stopped in his tracks, and watched the white-eyed wolf boss pass by with displeasure.
Xie Duo also stopped and turned to look at him.
Han Jiao asked: "Your Highness has become the prince, so you don't need me as a servant anymore?"
From three steps away, Xie Duo stared at him quietly.
It was only then that Han Jiao realized that his question was strange, and just about to change his words, he heard Xie Duo's sonorous answer—"Yes."
The corners of Han Jiao's mouth could not help but curl up, and he said triumphantly, "It's more or less the same."
"What about you? Han Xiaobai." Xie Duo asked him back: "If I don't become the crown prince, would you still be willing to be my attendant?"
Han Jiao raised his eyebrows and said, "What do you think? I have been serving as your attendant for almost a year, but you just became the prince today."
"No matter how my status changes, you will not regret it?"
Seeing the serious look of the big boss, Han Jiao couldn't help laughing: "Of course! I am the attendant of the Great Chu God of War. When I make new friends, I usually introduce myself like this."
The author has something to say: Cotton essence bragging capital: I taught the art of war strategy to God of War, that's right!
Although Li Ge was extremely anxious, he still quietly waited for the child in front of him to accept the reality.
"How will the queen mother decide?" Xie Duo lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Expel me from the palace? Or kill me?"
Li Ge saw that King Ling had no intention of resisting the sudden attack, so he took a step forward to cheer him up, and said in a deep voice, "Your Highness, death is not the worst outcome.
