Chapter 559
Prince Ning was sitting on the armchair beside the bed, staring at his son, and suddenly asked in a deep voice: "Ze'er, it's hard for you to hide from my father!"

Xiao Ze's heart trembled, but it didn't show on his face, he just pretended not to know and asked: "Father, what do you mean by this, my son doesn't understand."

Prince Ning sighed and said, "Ze'er, how deep is your relationship with Xiao Yi?"

"Ah...Father, because of the relationship between Ah Heng and the Duke of Zhenguo, Xiao Yi and I are both cousins ​​and brothers-in-law, so the relationship is naturally closer than others." Xiao Ze said evasively.

Prince Ning chuckled, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is it just closer? I ask you for my father, whether Xiao Yi has the intention to seize the heir apparent. What role do you play here?"

Xiao Ze Chuimu was silent for a moment, then raised his eyes to look at his father, and said very calmly: "My son helped Ah Yi plan for the throne."

After hearing this, Prince Ning showed a slight smile on his face, and he asked again: "Why is it Xiao Yi, not the crown prince, King Ke, or the thirteen princes?"

"The crown prince is not worthy of being a king. King Kejun and Ah Yi have a hatred for killing their mother and younger brother." Xiao Ze said simply and neatly.

"What about you?" Prince Ning asked again.

Xiao Ze said with a faint smile: "Father, my son has never thought of wanting the position of the son. Prince Ning's mansion is yours. If your son wants fame and wealth, he will fight for it with his own achievements."

"So you pretended to be sick for ten years, and even set up a big trick to marry your wife. I don't know about your elder brother and second brother, can you tell the whole story? Ze'er, you really surprised my father!" Ning The prince's expression at this time was both happy and sad, which made people feel very uncomfortable.

"Father is only half right. There is nothing wrong with pretending to be sick for ten years. If the son did not pretend to be sick, he would not be able to live to the present. During these ten years, even if the son has been pretending to be sick, he has been tricked. There is an adventure, and the button is loyal, I am afraid that the grass on the son's grave is already knee-deep." Xiao Ze recalled the ten years of pretending to be sick, and said with a sigh.

Prince Ning's heart sank. Although his son didn't say it very bluntly, he knew in his heart that it must be his eldest son and second son who plotted against the third son.From this, he thought of his lonely look at his third son at the beginning, and a burst of guilt surged in his heart.

"My son met Ah Heng at Tanjing Temple, and fell in love with her at first sight. He used some tricks because he was afraid that someone would obstruct her. One point, my son dares to swear to the sky." Xiao Ze looked into his father's eyes and said frankly.

Prince Ning sighed, and said in a low voice: "Ze'er, I believe in you as a father. You have been a kind child since you were a child. They have to blame for what happened today, and they have no one to blame." For more than half a year, Ning The prince ordered people to investigate Xiao Nuo and Xiao Xi secretly, and found out some private affairs. He knew that with what Xiao Nuo and Xiao Xi did to Xiao Ze, even if Xiao Ze killed the two brothers, it would not be an exaggeration. , That's why Prince Ning said such words.

"Father?" Xiao Ze called out in surprise.He really didn't expect his father to say such a thing. Does he really know everything?But if he knew all about it, why would he allow those two people to do all kinds of harm to him?
Seeing the surprise in his son's eyes, Prince Ning said shyly, "Ze'er, so many things have happened in our palace this year, why didn't you investigate as a father? They are both cruel-hearted but mediocre. If the father really investigates thoroughly, he will be able to find out some clues. Ze'er, it is because of the father that I am sorry for making you feel wronged."

Xiao Ze shook his head and said: "Father, my son has not suffered any grievances. In fact, the past ten years of pretending to be sick has benefited my son a lot."

Prince Ning smiled bitterly and said: "It's really hard for you, Ze'er, although you don't care about this Prince Ning, but the father has already decided to make you his son, the two of them are useless, wait for the will to make you his son This is for my father to immediately separate Xiao Xi from the palace and let him set up another family, and I don't expect him to watch over and help you, I just hope that I don't create trouble for you."

"Father...I don't..." Xiao Ze spoke hastily, but he was stopped just as he spoke.Prince Ning said solemnly: "Ze'er, I know in my heart that you are talented and kind-hearted, and you are the most suitable heir in my heart. Your younger brother is much different in age from you. When your wife gives birth to a child, you will be married Put them together and raise them together, so your brothers will naturally not be divorced. As for the matter of the seventh child, he seems to be doing well now, but I don’t know what the future holds. , Wealth and wealth are hard to share!"

After a moment of silence, Xiao Ze said softly: "Father, my son and Ah Yi are friends by fate, we lived and died together."

Prince Ning turned pale with fright, he stood up and stared at his son nervously, and whispered nervously: "Ze'er, what are you talking about?"

Xiao Ze sighed lowly, and said softly: "Father, my son didn't lie to you, it's true, my son followed you and mother into the palace when he was young, just when Xiao Jing harmed Ah Yi, his son smashed it with a stone. Xiao Jing's head rescued A Yi, if his son was one step late, A Yi would have become a dead soul in the Yu River."

Prince Ning was extremely shocked, he said in astonishment: "Back then, the Fourth Prince's head was broken, and you did it?"

Xiao Ze nodded and said, "That's right, it was my son who did it. My son has kept it a secret for ten years. Besides Ah Yi, you are the second person who knows about it."

Prince Ning slapped his forehead and shouted helplessly: "You boy, really...you were only four years old that year!" The real culprit was not found out, and the real culprit was a four-year-old child, so Prince Ning really didn't know what to say.

A mischievous and triumphant smile floated on Xiao Ze's face, and he said proudly: "Yes, father, you remember clearly that your son was only four years old that year, and he was already capable of beating the seven-year-old fourth prince to death. flow without being noticed by anyone."

"You brat, just enjoy yourself! Forget it, Prince Ning's Mansion will always be handed over to you. Since you have chosen Lao Qi long ago, it will be him. Hurry up and let Lao Qi come to see you in secret. For father!" Prince Ning put down a sentence feigning anger, then got up and walked away...

The day after the decree to put the queen under house arrest is the Great Court Meeting. The princes, relatives, dignitaries, civil and military officials gathered in the Golden Hall. After three shouts of long live, everyone heard a very gloomy "Pingshen", everyone's heart skipped a beat, and they thought to themselves: "It seems that the emperor is in a bad mood. You should be more careful. If you don't say anything, don't report it, so as not to suffer disaster." The silence in the hall was scary for a while, and every minister could hear the noise around him. The sound of people's breathing was suppressed so hard that no one dared to speak.
