Chapter 375

"I don't know if my uncle asked me to come here, what advice do you have?" Fourth prince Li Ze took a sip of tea, and looked at Du Heng indifferently.

"I thought His Highness would not dare to come." Du Heng looked at Li Ze with a smile while fiddling with the teacup.

Li Ze didn't take it seriously, "I'm doing well and sitting upright, why didn't I dare to come to see my uncle? Even if my father knew about it, he wouldn't blame me."

Du Heng had a very emotional expression on his face, "It's hard for His Highness to call me uncle."

Li Ze greeted politely, "After all, you are my elder brother's Master Taishan. It is not an exaggeration for me to call you uncle."

Du Heng hooked his lips sarcastically, "Your Highness, to be honest, you are much better than your elder brother. Since I was taken back by the Holy Majesty as the Duke of Lu, your elder brother has never even visited the door once. I will clean up for him." After making so much mess, now it’s very cold.”

Li Ze didn't move his eyebrows, "Didn't the elder brother be banned by the emperor? When the ban is lifted, he will come to greet you."

Du Heng smiled, "Your Highness doesn't need to speak for him, the old man is very aware of His Highness's personality, when he is useful, he will talk to you angrily, and when you are useless, he won't even look at you."

Li Ze didn't want to talk about his elder brother, so he asked casually, "Then what's the purpose of posting this post?"

Du Heng looked at the fourth prince in front of him, feeling in his heart, if he knew that the fourth prince was the candidate for the crown prince in his heart, he should have married A Shu earlier, and then married the second younger brother's daughter to the fourth prince, it would be cheaper Pingjin Hou.

"Your Majesty the Fourth Highness is invited to come to the door today, and I have something important to discuss with Your Highness in detail."

Du Heng straightened his expression, and said very solemnly, "I have inquired about a piece of news that your eldest brother is planning to force the palace, kill the king and father, and forge the imperial decree to pass on the throne."

Li Ze's original casual expression suddenly changed, he looked at Du Heng sharply, and his voice sank, "Uncle, do you know what you mean? Don't talk nonsense."

Du Heng didn't move his eyebrows, "I naturally know what I'm talking about, do you think I'm talking nonsense?"

Li Ze frowned, "How did uncle know that big brother is going to do such a rebellious thing?"

His eyes couldn't hide the suspicion. Just now Du Heng said that the elder brother didn't even open the door of Du's house, and the elder brother was confined at home by his father, and Du Heng was obviously dissatisfied with the elder brother, so how could Du Heng know that the elder brother wanted to Force the palace?

"Did you forget that your sister-in-law is my daughter?" Du Heng asked back.

Li Ze's brows were still furrowed, "Even if sister-in-law is uncle's daughter, that doesn't mean anything. I don't believe that brother would tell sister-in-law such a terrible thing."

Du Heng nodded with a smile, "Your Highness is right, Your Highness really wouldn't bring this kind of thing up to the First Prince Consort, this matter is still played by the First Prince Consort's girl, who secretly hid behind the room and accidentally eavesdropped Arrived."

Li Zepo was a little speechless, this reason was too ingeniously fabricated.

Du Heng knew what the fourth prince was thinking at a glance, and sighed slightly, "I know that His Highness won't believe it, but the fact is that it is true, the girl really overheard this matter, and the first princess hurriedly came to tell me, Let me tell the Holy Majesty about this."

Li Ze was surprised that the eldest concubine wanted to ruin the good deeds of his elder brother. Seeing Du Heng's slightly more miserable face than before, he felt that he could understand what the concubine did.

He raised his eyebrows, "Since my sister-in-law asked my uncle to tell my father about this matter, why didn't my uncle go to my father instead of my father?"

Du Heng laughed at himself, "It's not that your highness doesn't know that the Du family has become a bereaved dog. How can I, a white man, enter the palace to face the saint? Besides, even if I can really enter the palace to face the saint, will the saint really believe me? "

Li Ze fell silent. He also felt that his father would not believe Du Heng's words. After all, his father even took back the iron scrolls of the Du family. The relationship between the monarch and his ministers for decades has been severed. His father must have listened. These words still feel like Du Heng's alarmist words.

Du Heng paused, and continued, "As for coming to His Highness, it is because I want to help His Highness, and Du has something to ask for."

Li Ze put on an attitude of listening attentively, "I would like to hear more about it."

Du Heng took a sip of tea and said, "His Royal Highness, think about it, your eldest brother wants to force the palace and kill the emperor's father. If you appear to stop him when he is in trouble, do you have the power to protect him?" ? Will His Majesty take a high look at you then?"

Li Ze didn't show it on the surface, but he was secretly thinking about the feasibility of Du Heng's words.

Du Heng went on to say, "The eldest prince forced the palace to kill the king. Among the remaining three princes, only His Highness is eager to save his father. With the name of benevolence and filial piety, and the merit of saving him, in the heart of the Holy One, the other two princes How to catch up with you."

Li Ze pursed his lips and asked, "What is uncle asking for...?"

Du Heng smiled, "Naturally, I hope that His Highness will ascend the throne as emperor in the future. For the sake of today's merits, I will return the Danqing iron scroll of the Duke of Lu's mansion to the Du family. The Du family's Danqing iron scroll cannot be in my hands." Lose it, otherwise I will have no face to face my ancestors after I die. Your Highness should believe that I am telling the truth based on the Danqing iron scroll."

That's right, Li Ze was dubious at first, but now he really believed in Du Heng, but he was a little puzzled, "Since uncle knows that elder brother is going to force the palace, why doesn't he help elder brother, instead ruining his good deed? If you are disrespectful, if the big brother succeeds, you are his Taishan, and it is only a matter of saying to give back the Danqing iron scroll."

Du Heng shook his head disapprovingly, "I said before, your elder brother is too cold, and now he has crossed the river and demolished the bridge. When he ascends the throne and becomes emperor, I'm afraid there will be no good fruit from the Du family."

Li Ze nodded slightly, "Uncle's thinking is indeed reasonable."

After a pause, Li Ze asked again: "Then I don't know if Uncle knows when Big Brother is planning to start an incident?"

But Du Heng shook his head, "Not yet. If I know the day when the First Prince started the incident, I will tell His Highness immediately. But Your Highness, if you want to stop the First Prince, do you have reliable people?"

Li Ze said 'hmm', "Of course, I don't need to worry about this."

Seeing that Du Heng had nothing else to do, he got up and nodded politely at Du Heng, and promised: "If I really prevent my elder brother from rebelling, I will really ascend the throne and become emperor in the future. I will not forget what my uncle asked today."

Du Heng looked at the back of Li Ze leaving with the guards, smiled suddenly, and muttered to himself, "The fourth prince is not the previous fourth prince, if the former fourth prince, if he finds out about this kind of thing, he will immediately go to the palace to tell Your Majesty, so that His Majesty can take precautions and avoid getting hurt, but now he hides it, after all, it is the dragon chair that makes people change. But it’s also good, only when there is a change can there be an opportunity."
