Daughter's Poisoned Wife

Chapter 354: An Old Man Comes From Afar (2)
"My lord, what are you trying to say about something important, and you want all the servants to retreat?" Princess Ning guessed that what her husband was going to say might be about Zhong Yuyuan pretending to be pregnant, but she still asked in a puzzled way .

Prince Ning said solemnly: "Rou Rou, I plan to submit a zhezi to ask the emperor to remove Xiao Nuo from the position of Prince Ning's son."

"Ah..." Princess Ning was already mentally prepared, but she was still taken aback. She originally thought that her husband would only punish Xiao Yao and his wife heavily, but he would not touch his position as the eldest son. Unexpectedly, Prince Ning This time he was so angry that he didn't even leave the position of son to Xiao Nuo, which obviously meant to give up Xiao Nuo completely.

"My lord is the head of the family. You are the one who decides the big and small affairs of the family. You will not have any objections to how you decide how to obey me." Prince Ning said softly.For her stepson and stepson's daughter-in-law who didn't respect her, Prince Ning and Princess Ning didn't want to bother to say good things for them.

Prince Ning nodded. His wife has always been submissive, and no matter what he said, he had no objection. Prince Ning sat down beside his wife, with one hand on his wife's shoulder, and the other lightly on her. On Xianhuai's lower abdomen, he said in a low voice: "Rou Rou, it's nothing more than Xiao Yu's son, do you think it's Li Ze'er or Li Xi'er? This one is too small, I'm afraid this king won't see him growing up. grown up."

Princess Ning was terrified, she quickly grabbed her husband's hand and shouted: "My lord, what's wrong with you? Send the doctor quickly! Don't scare me!"

Prince Ning saw his wife's frightened face changed, but his mood inexplicably improved, he held his wife's catkin with his backhand and said with a smile: "No, Rourou, don't think too much, I don't have any discomfort , It’s just that the world is changing and no one knows what will happen in the future, so this king feels this way.”

Princess Ning didn't quite believe it, she frowned and looked at her husband intently, as if she was looking at the doctor.Prince Ning said with a smile: "Rou Rou, don't worry about this king. The imperial doctor will check the pulse of peace every month. If there is anything wrong, the imperial doctor will have discovered it long ago."

Princess Ning said in a muffled voice: "You can't tell, my lord, let Ze'er-in-law give you a pulse tomorrow, or I won't feel at ease."

In order to reassure his wife, Prince Ning had no choice but to respond with a smile: "Okay, I'm all up to you. Rou Rou, now I intend to make Ze'er my son, do you want to?" Prince Ning still remembers his wife He once strongly opposed Xiao Ze's being the heir, but the situation at that time was different from now, so he asked again.

Princess Ning thought for a while before she said: "My lord, if there is no one more suitable than Ze'er, then it's useless for me to object. But I still don't want Ze'er to bear such a heavy responsibility in my heart. , the concubine wants him to live freely for the rest of his life."

"Rourou, I understand what you mean, so let's talk about the establishment of a son in a few years." Prince Ning patted his wife's hand and said with a smile.Princess Ning didn't say anything else, she just nodded slightly.

After the morning court the next day, Prince Ning did not return to the mansion immediately, but entered the palace with a sign.Last night he almost stayed up all night, thinking about it over and over again, the more Prince Ning thought, the more he felt that the eldest son Xiao Nuo was not the one who could inherit the throne and inherit the family business, and he could no longer be the heir.

"Brother Ning, why didn't you say anything at the court meeting?" The emperor announced that Prince Ning came to meet him in the imperial study, and the emperor asked in puzzlement as soon as Prince Ning walked in.

Prince Ning sighed for a long time, and said in a gloomy voice: "Brother Huang, how can I say something about my brother's family ugliness in the courtroom?"

The emperor was startled, and hurriedly asked: "What happened to the palace? Brother Wang, you..." Prince Ning walked up to the emperor while talking, and the emperor was surprised to find that there was a silver light on his brother's temple.

Prince Ning sighed again, took out the scripture he had written long ago from his sleeves, and held it in front of the emperor with both hands.

The emperor frowned and looked at his younger brother, reached out to take the booklet and looked at ten lines at a glance.After seeing it, the emperor's brows furrowed even tighter.He said in a deep voice, "Brother Wang, have you made up your mind?"

Prince Ning nodded and said: "Brother Huang, I made this decision after careful consideration."

The emperor let out a deep "Hmm...", closed the zhezi and put it on the imperial book case, frowned and said: "My brother, if everything in the zhezi is true, not only will Xiao Yu be abolished as the son of the dead, but also You should be expelled from the palace and become a commoner. Do you have solid evidence, if not, you can't convict Xiao Nuo."

Prince Ning was silent for a moment before he said in a harsh voice: "The last thing is the witness, and the first two things, the minister has no real evidence."

"Oh, that's right!" the emperor said in a deep voice, with a rather perplexed look on his face.It is easy to write the decree of the abolished son, but if this decree is promulgated, it will have a series of consequences. Xiao You is no longer a child of a few years old, but an adult who has already married and married. The power in the middle is not small, if Xiao Yu is abolished without knowing it, I am afraid that no one in Dingguo's family will agree.

What Pian Xiaoyou did can't be made public. He is not just a thing but also a child of the royal family, and the reputation of all the children of the royal family cannot be ruined because of him, although not many children of the royal family have a good reputation.But the others are just gossiping, fighting and drinking, and no one is plotting to murder the stepmother all day long, and trying to confuse the blood of the royal family.This is the most intolerable for the emperor and Prince Ning.

"Brother Wang, I understand what you mean, but now is not a good time to make an edict. In this way, I will write you an edict. When the time is right, you will take out the edict and announce it. I will not invent an edict."

Prince Ning also understood the emperor's scruples, he hurriedly knelt down and said, "My brother accepts the decree to thank you, my brother has made the emperor difficult."

The emperor bent down and stretched out his hand to support his younger brother, and said with a smile: "Forget it, my brothers don't talk about this, brother Wang, who do you plan to make another son? The second child is Ze'er?" Xiao Xi, the second son of Prince Ning's mansion, always Living in the shadow of the eldest brother Xiao Yu, even the emperor can't remember his name, so he can only call him the second child.No better than the youngest Xiao Ze, the emperor still has a great impression of him.

"I haven't made up my mind about this subject yet. I plan to take a look first. Ze'er is recovering. I don't know what ability he has and how far he can go." Prince Ning is telling the truth. In his heart, he originally wanted Xiao Ze to be his son, but because his wife was unwilling, Prince Ning suppressed the matter of making Xiao Ze his son.
