"Elder-in-law" migraine

Duan Yihong played with Xiao Zhi'er for a long time, when someone knocked on the door, "His Royal Highness Shu, our Highness is waiting for you in the study."

Duan Yihong kissed Xiao Zhi'er's face, returned him to the nanny's arms, and said in a warm voice, "Zhi'er is good, Sixth Uncle is going to talk to your father about something serious, and I will see you next time."

The people outside the door waited patiently for Duan Yihong to bid farewell to Xiao Zhi'er, and came out slowly, then hurriedly walked ahead to lead Duan Yihong.

It seems that Duan Yihong really just came to the mansion to visit his little nephew, and to meet the third brother by the way, his laid-back appearance made it impossible for anyone to notice what was on his mind.The guards led him all the way to the door of the study, knocked on the door lightly, "Your Highness, His Highness King Shu has arrived."

Duan Yixian's gentle voice came from inside, "Sixth brother, come in quickly."

The guard opened the door for Duan Yihong, Duan Yihong straightened his robe, and strode in.Duan Yixian was sitting in front of the book bed, flipping through a book, and raised his head when he heard footsteps, "Sixth Brother, why didn't you inform Third Brother in advance?"

Duan Yihong shook his head with a smile, "I'm here to see my nephew, but I just have something to say to Third Brother."

Duan Yixian nodded, "I want to know, what are these few words by the way?"

"The third brother must have found out who the murderer who poisoned Concubine Shu and who was behind it, right?" Duan Yihong reached out and took out the book he was clutching from Duan Yixian's hand, glanced at it, and found that it was a book. strategy.

Duan Yixian's face remained unchanged, "So what? What's your suggestion?"

"My suggestion is, third brother let this person go, how about we reach a cooperation?" Duan Yihong flipped through the strategies in his hand, and said, "Third brother has read all kinds of strategies since he was a child, and he has a careful mind. It is probably also clear that even if you hand over this person to the father now, you can only get rid of him at most, and it will affect my mother and fifth brother, although it will not be shaken, maybe it will be cheaper for the other party."

"My mother and concubine have no grievances with him. Gong Xibang actually wanted to poison her to kill her. So far, her face has been ruined. Why do you think I will let him go?" Duan Yixian said in a slightly intimidating tone. Self anger.

"I know what you want most. For that high position, you sacrificed too much. Although you hate him deeply in your heart, I think you can swallow this breath, as long as, You can get everything you want." Duan Yihong threw the Art of War book on the table and said, "Third brother, let's cooperate, and I will help you win the throne."

Duan Yixian narrowed his eyes and looked at the younger brother in front of him. After a long time, he asked, "Why do you want to help me? You don't want to get the throne?"

Duan Yihong sneered at Duan Yixian's words, "I've been a person since I was a child, and I'm not interested in what others want. I'm helping you because I hope that after you succeed, you can have a bargaining chip to ask you to promise me something. "

"Speak up and let's talk about the rest." Duan Yixian asked, "Even if I can understand that you don't want the throne, but over there is your mother's queen, your half-brother, why do you insist on helping me get it?" The throne?"

"Because I have understood since I was a child that the throne belongs only to you." Duan Yihong sighed deeply, and then continued, "I want you to promise me to spare the lives of my mother and fifth brother after you get the throne. If you Worried that they will become hidden dangers, you can let my queen mother stay in the palace, and let my fifth brother go to a border area to be an idle prince, without my queen, he can't achieve great things."

Duan Yixian looked at Duan Yihong intently for a long time, and then slowly said, "Okay, I promise you."

Early the next morning, King Yi Duan Yixian rushed into the Palace of Funing, saying that he had caught the murderer who poisoned Concubine Shu, and after torture, the other party confessed that the instigator behind him was Fang Yong, the minister of the court.

Emperor Jingyan was shocked, and immediately sent someone to declare Fang Yong to enter the palace.Duan Yixian sat aside, drinking tea slowly, waiting for Fang Yong to enter the palace.A young eunuch ran in at this time and whispered something in Zhang Cheng's ear, Zhang Cheng hesitantly turned to Emperor Jingyan.

Emperor Jingyan looked at him in surprise, "Just tell me what's going on."

"His Royal Highness the King of Shu is waiting outside the palace. He said that he has something important to tell His Majesty. It is related to the royal blood. It is extremely urgent."

Emperor Jingyan frowned, "Let him in."

After the word spread, Duan Yihong quickly entered the hall, glanced at Duan Yixian who was sitting on the side, and looked straight at Emperor Jingyan, "Father, my son traveled far a while ago, and met a person who claimed to be the concubine of virtue back then." The son of Mrs. Wen who gave birth, he said that his mother's family was murdered because she knew a big secret, and he was spared because his mother sent him to distant relatives in other places in advance, begging the child to make decisions for him."

"What's the secret?" Emperor Jing Yan's face was slightly cold, and he vaguely sensed that what Duan Yihong was about to say would be extraordinarily shocking. He waved his hand and made the other servants retreat. For a while, only Emperor Jing Yan and Duan Yixian were left in the hall. , Duan Yihong, father and son, and Zhang Cheng, the eunuch who is a confidant of Emperor Jingyan.

Duan Yihong licked his lower lip, and the old smile on his face had long since disappeared. He stood in front of Emperor Jingyan and said word by word, "He said that the concubine De concubine gave birth to a healthy baby boy that day. But Fang Yong replaced him with his concubine's son. The real seventh brother, Fang Yong, was handed over to Wen Po who wanted to get rid of him, but it was a baby after all. Wen Po felt that it was too sinful, so she smuggled the baby out. After leaving the palace, Mrs. Wen was worried that Fang Yong would kill her, so she sent her only son away, and at the same time gave him a few things, which were exactly the bamboo basket and wrapping cloth that smuggled the seventh brother out of the palace that day."

Emperor Jing Yan opened his eyes wide in disbelief. He never thought that his favorite minister would be so bold, daring to use his heirs to pretend to be royal blood. His heart is simply damnable!He took a few breaths violently, got up suddenly, and overturned the table in front of him to the ground. The teacup on it fell, making the sound of broken porcelain, and it became an exceptionally quiet place in the hall after Duan Yihong finished speaking. the only sound.

Duan Yixian, who was sitting quietly drinking tea, Zhang Cheng, who was standing beside him, and Duan Yihong were all startled, and immediately knelt down. Duan Yixian hurriedly said, "Father, calm down, we can't just listen to an unknown source." According to some people, it happens that Fang Yong is on his way into the palace, so it is better to call the son of Mrs. Wen into the palace to confront him."

Emperor Jing Yan nodded, calmed himself down as much as possible, and told Duan Yihong, "Bring that stable woman's son into the palace, and confront Fang Yong face to face. Fang Yong really gave me a big surprise." , In one day, I found out that he killed my son 15 years ago, and poisoned the concubine 15 years later!"

Duan Yihong replied, "Wen Po's son, Hai'er, has been brought here, so we can confront each other at any time."

Emperor Jing Yan breathed a sigh of relief, "You all get up. Send someone to take care of both King Chen and Concubine De. In addition, after Fang Yong entered the palace, immediately send someone to seal the house, and no one is allowed to go out."

Zhang Cheng immediately went out according to the order, and there were only father and son left in the hall for a while.

Duan Yixian got up from the ground, carefully glanced at Emperor Jingyan's expression, and then asked Duan Yihong, "If what that person said is true, did he say that after the real seventh brother was taken out of the palace, Where did you take it? Where is it now?"

Emperor Jing Yan nodded immediately, "Yes, where is my real son?"

"After the Wen woman took the seventh brother out of the palace, she originally wanted to raise her with her own hands, but because she was worried that Fang Yong would kill her, she sent the seventh brother to a couple without children. The minister sent someone to find the couple, and they After raising the seventh brother for a few months, she became pregnant with her own child. Because the family was poor and could not afford the two children, she left the seventh brother by the moat. When she went to look for it later, she was gone, presumably by someone else. Take him away. I am still investigating the whereabouts of the seventh brother, and I will definitely find him as soon as possible." Duan Yihong replied to Emperor Jingyan.

Emperor Jing Yan sighed deeply. A child who was only a few months old was thrown around. What are the chances of him surviving?Even if he was lucky enough to survive, but the imperial city is so big, where can he find this child?

Duan Yihong saw the faint worry in Emperor Jingyan's expression, and couldn't help comforting him, "My child has sent people to investigate all Jingyan's five-year-old babies in the imperial city, and the seventh brother should be found soon. Father Don't worry."

"It's hard to find a solution." Emperor Jing Yan said slowly with a tired face.

Duan Yihong took out a piece of paper from his bosom and presented it to Emperor Jingyan, "When the seventh brother was carried out of the palace, Grandma Wen secretly stuffed a sachet embroidered by the concubine Defei herself into his quilt. I just want to leave a thought about my mother to the child. Later, when the seventh brother was thrown by the moat, the sachet was also stuffed in it. It was on this picture. With this, it should be easier to find .”

Emperor Jingyan took the paper and glanced at it, when Zhang Cheng came in from the outside, "Your Majesty, Fang Yong has already been brought."

Emperor Jingyan handed him the paper casually, and said in a deep voice, "Bring him in."

Zhang Cheng took the paper and glanced at it casually, and was about to pass it to Duan Yihong, but suddenly stopped, "I have seen this sachet before."

The three people in the hall were all taken aback, Duan Yihong stepped forward and grabbed Zhang Cheng's sleeve, and asked hastily, "Where is it?"

Zhang Cheng thought about it and replied, "It's in Ren Zhi's room. It has been hanging beside his bed. He has been carrying it since he was a child. I have seen it many times, so I recognized it at a glance."

Duan Yixian's eyes widened in surprise, before he had time to think, he snatched a piece of paper from Zhang Cheng's hand, and his expression changed after he glanced at it, it was indeed the sachet, the incense that Ren Zhi had been wearing since childhood The master Qiao Lin said that it was found in Ren Zhi's quilt when he picked it up, probably a thought left by his parents.Although Ren Zhi never mentioned the pair of biological parents who cruelly abandoned him, he paid special attention to this sachet.

Duan Yixian felt that his brain was suddenly a little confused, Jing Yan five years, the moat, could it be that he was the baby who was replaced out of the palace back then?
