When the prince has the ability to read minds, he switches to the princess

Before Zhongyong Hou left the palace, he met Fang Xirou.

Before Fang Xirou could speak, she heard Marquis Zhongyong say: "Princess, you don't have to worry, the prince will be fine."

"Master Hou, how come the prince is locked up?"

"Locked up is also a kind of protection."

Fang Xirou was stunned and pondered for a long time. She was a little unsure and asked, "Is it really going to be okay?"

Zhu Gaoyong was dead in his previous life.

She couldn't help but worry.

"How could the prince be poisoned? The prince was fine when we went there yesterday."

Marquis Zhongyong whispered: "Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to him."

Fang Xirou knew it well.

"Thank you, Lord Marquis."

Because of the death of the Crown Prince, the royal family was in chaos. There has been an ongoing investigation into how the Crown Prince died.

The entire East Palace, except the Crown Princess, was all taken away and interrogated.

Fang Xirou was waiting anxiously at the house. She wanted to do something, but she didn't know what to do.

At that time, Xilin came to the house.

Fang Xirou asked someone to invite him in.

"Cousin, the prince is still locked up."

Xilin nodded.

"Cousin, I came here today to tell you that you just stay at home and don't do anything."

Fang Xirou didn't dare to do anything.

What does she know during this sensitive period?

She was afraid, so she didn't dare to do anything.

Not doing it is the greatest protection for yourself.

"Cousin came here today, why?"

"I'm here to tell you, take good care of the prince, and don't go out if you can't do it recently. No matter who comes looking for you, they won't see you."

Even if he didn't come, she wouldn't go out.

Nowadays, the court is tense, and if you are not careful, you will fall into eternal disaster.

Of course Xilin didn't tell her what they were plotting.

Some things cannot be seen in the light.

However, after half a month, Zhu Gaoyong was released because the prince's death had been found out.

The prince committed suicide.

But in the past half month, Zhu Gaoyong has been making constant remonstrances, including instigating the crown prince to insist on Zhu Gaoyong.

However, the Crown Princess was not stupid. She did not conspire with them and even bit back.

Marquis Zhongyong also found out that the Qin nobleman was actually discovered by Zhu Gaojian.

Not only that, but Zhu Gaojian also colluded with officials in private...

The emperor was furious and scolded Zhu Gao for criticizing his ambition.

He is the murderer who killed the prince.

Zhu Gaojian was imprisoned.

Zhu Gaoyong was released.

Zhu Gaoyong came out, first asked about the situation, and then entered the palace to thank the emperor for not killing him.

Knowing that the prince had not been buried yet, he asked his father to let the prince rest in peace.

"I'll leave this matter to you."

"Yes."

Zhu Gaoyong went home to rest for the night, and then he was busy for a few days.

After finishing all this, he took the wine and food and went to the cell to visit Zhu Gaojian.

When you get to the place, drive everyone away, open the cell, and put the food on the table.

Zhu Gaojian had been arrogant since he was a child and looked down on Zhu Gaoyong.

However, their situation is different now.

Zhu Gaojian always knew that Zhu Gaoyong disdained political intrigue.

Recently, he has been thinking about how he exposed himself and how he offended Marquis Zhongyong.

After much deliberation, he came to only one conclusion.

"You married a good princess."

Zhu Gaoyong did not agree with this, but asked him: "Have you ever thought that I would come to see you?"

Zhu Gao admonished: "I have thought about it, among all the brothers, you are the only one who values ​​friendship the most."

Zhu Gaoyong mocked:

"I value friendship most? What about you? If you succeeded in Beirong, would you still keep me?"

"..."

Zhu Gaojian didn't reply, but he acquiesced.

What happened that time was also what he did.

"We are all brothers, why should we do this?"

Zhu Gao admonished: "Brothers are also distinguished by their status as noble and humble, but you have no face, skin or dignity."

"So, you want to kill your brother because of your pitiful dignity?"

"..."

"I've been thinking lately, if I hadn't been the one who got in the way that time, the prince died, and the eldest and third brothers were involved, you would have reaped the benefits."

"Even if I didn't block your way, you wouldn't want me alive. Just like when we were children, if I showed that I was overpowering you, you would suppress me and murder me."

"Do you still remember that one time when I was in the study room, I was praised by my father, and you turned around and kicked me into the water. If the palace maid hadn't found out, I would have died that day."

"And we practiced riding and shooting together. Naturally, my riding and shooting is better than yours, so you poisoned the horse, causing it to go wild and throw me off the horse."

"It's really ridiculous. When we were in Beirong, I actually thought of giving you a chance. I destroyed the evidence of your murder of the Crown Prince... Now you actually want to eradicate the root cause and accuse me of murdering the Crown Prince."

Zhu Gaojian shook his head.

"Successful king and defeated bandit, why do you have to speak so grandly? Now you are the only son under the father's knees. You must be very proud of yourself."

"I'm really not willing to accept it. I kept planning and planning, but I actually made a wedding dress for you."

Zhu Gaoyong looked fierce.

"Zhu Gaojian, by now, don't you realize that you did something wrong? We are all brothers."

"Brothers? Do they regard us as brothers? One of them is a prince, the other relies on his own merits, and the other's mother's family is strong. As for us, we are not even as good as dogs in their eyes."

"Why?"

Zhu Gaoyong frowned and said: "Why, the king is the king and the minister is the minister."

"You? You are all stupid and stupid, buying and selling official positions and emptying the treasury. Why should you be a king? If the throne is left in their hands, it will be ruined sooner or later."

"What about you? What did you do? You pretended to be gentle and virtuous in front of outsiders, but what did you do behind your back?"

"Zhu Gaojian, you secretly colluded with powerful officials, bribed officials, bought and sold officials, do you think you are worthy? Since you entered the court, what good things have you done for the country?"

Zhu Gaojian remained silent.

"If you see that the prince is unhappy, you can stand out instead of joining them."

Zhu Gaojian asked him: "Why are you so noble? Now you just think that you are the only one among the brothers in the court, so you dare to preach to me?"

"If it were before, who would you be?"

As soon as Zhu Gaojian finished scolding, Zhu Gaoyong snorted coldly.

"Is this what you want now? To sit in a cell and have your wife and children be looked down upon for the rest of their lives because of you?"

“…”

Next to the cell, Emperor Ruizong, who followed Zhu Gaoyong when he heard that Zhu Gaoyong was visiting, seemed to have heard some secret.

It turns out that Lao Jiu suffered a lot of grievances in the past.

No wonder no one knows about his martial arts skills.

The emperor left the cell and asked no more questions.

Marquis Zhongyong was waiting outside. Seeing the emperor coming out so quickly, he asked, "Has the emperor talked with Fourth Master?"

"Huh, I have nothing to talk to him about."

Originally, the emperor wanted to ask, why did the fourth child do this? In his heart, he still hoped that the fourth child would have some difficulties.

But he still looked up to him.
