Although Si Xingjian saw that the eldest prince was not Si Xingzheng's own, she had no intention of bringing it up in person.

Men in this era are very face-saving. Faced with this kind of family scandal, most of them would want to deal with it privately and would not let outsiders know about it.

What's more, this person is still the emperor aloof.

Moreover, Si Xingzheng was nearly thirty years old, and had many concubines, but only two children - the eldest prince and the princess born to Lu Xiuyi.

Maybe he has some hidden disease.

This is even more impossible to say.

Si Xingjian also guessed: Maybe this person has already noticed it, so he took the original owner's child to his side to raise him.Probably because he didn't want to see the throne fall into the hands of someone with a foreign surname, and wanted Zai Zai to inherit the throne?

If you don't have a child yourself, do you rob other people's cubs?

But he is not the original owner, and he has no plans to give his cub to others.

Si Xingzheng sat at the main seat and asked: "I heard that King Chen was poisoned, is he in good health? Have you ever found the person who poisoned you?"

Si Xingjian said indifferently: "It's just that the medicines are contradictory, and it's not a serious problem if you faint for a while and catch your breath."

Zai Zai, who was being held by him, was surprised when he heard what he said.

Si Xingzheng didn't quite believe his explanation, but seeing that he was hiding it intentionally, he didn't ask any further questions.

The two exchanged a few words.

Seeing An An obediently being hugged by Si Xingjian, Si Xingzheng said sourly, "Are they the biological father and son? It's been a long time since we've seen each other and they're still so close. An An never likes being hugged by others, but sitting in your arms now is good."

Si Xingjian pulled the corner of his lower lip, but did not answer.

Xiao An'an couldn't help being a little shy.

He really didn't like being hugged before. He felt that when he grew up, he should walk and sit upright by himself, and he couldn't let people serve everything.This will make him indulge in enjoyment and become lazy.

But now it's his father who is holding him, so how can they be compared?

In front of his father, he will always be a baby.

Si Anzhen became even more shy because of the thoughts in his head, pursed his lips, and gently pressed his face to his father's heart.

When Si Xingzheng saw this scene, the soreness in his heart could hardly be concealed, so he turned his eyes away and proposed to take An An back to the palace.

Si Xingjian was unwilling, and facing Si Xingzheng's various reasons, he refuted them back with reason and without haste.

Si Xingzheng felt helpless, so he could only coax Xiaotuanzi, "Are you going back with Uncle Huang?"

He thought that he had raised An An for three years, so why would he be closer to Prince Chen?Even if An An gets close to her father for a while, she must be even more reluctant to part with him.

After all, to An An, King Chen's father is no different from a stranger.

An An originally wanted to refuse, but she was afraid that Uncle Huang would be sad, so she pretended to struggle for a while before replying, "I want to live in the palace."

Si Xingzheng didn't give up, and continued to ask: "Didn't you say that you want to learn painting a few days ago? Xinke Tanhualang is a good painter, and he is handsome and clever. Do you want to learn painting from him?"

He thought that children and young people who liked beauty and fun compared to the old man who was strict and strict, so he sold Tanhua without hesitation.

Unexpectedly, An An blinked her big eyes twice, looked up at her father, and asked, "Does my father look good?"

Si Xingzheng choked, unable to answer "yes" against his will.

Although Tan Hualang was good-looking, he only selected one of the students who passed the exam with a relatively outstanding appearance.Its appearance is incomparable with most of the descendants of the aristocratic families, let alone compared with King Chen.

In the past, King Chen had nothing but skin, and he put on a fake face all day long, putting on a respectful appearance, which was really unpleasant, even that pretty face was disgusting.

But today he took off his mask for some reason.

It's like a rough stone that has been carved to reveal the beautiful jade inside.

Moreover, King Chen didn't like An An before. Although he deliberately concealed this, anyone with a discerning eye could see it.

It was An An, a little fool, who, after being coaxed a little, turned his heart towards his father.

The more Si Xingzheng thought about it, the more unhappy he became, but he still said with a smile on his face: "Today is too hasty. All of An An's supplies are in the palace. If he suddenly changed them to something else, he might not be used to it. And the childish skin Delicate and tender, the pajamas and mattresses are all worn out, so they are comfortable. Let him go back to the palace with me first, and then send An An to the palace when the weather is warmer."

As long as An An is taken away, he can coax people back.

Faced with such a delay, Si Xingjian did not back down at all.

"It's still early, and there is still time to get some urgent things. The rest will be moved later."

"But no one has lived in this yard for a long time, so I'm afraid it needs to be cleaned up?"

Si Xingjian: "Naturally, it needs to be renovated, and there is no rush. My yard is big enough for such a small person to live in, which is more than enough."

Xiaotuanzi spoke at the right time: "An'an will often go to the palace to greet Uncle Huang."

An An said this to comfort the Uncle Huang, but from what Si Xingzheng heard, it was An An who was urging him, the Uncle Huang, to stop entanglement in order to reunite with his father.

Si Xingzheng: What an unfamiliar little white-eyed wolf!

But he still couldn't just watch this little wolf cub enter the tiger's mouth.

He felt that King Chen suddenly changed his attitude towards An An, and he was afraid that he had other plans.

After all, he is not An An's biological father, and if his name is not correct, his words will not go well. King Chen is unwilling to let go, so he cannot take An An away forcibly.

Otherwise, it would be too suspicious.

What's more, An An is also facing her biological father.

So he can only let An An stay in Chenwang Mansion temporarily.

Si Xingzheng was worried that An'an would stay here with a child, so he wanted the two guards Xuan Shisan and Xuan 14 and the servant girl Cui Hong to accompany him, but when he looked up, they were not in the yard.

That's all for Cui Hong, she just waits close to An An when she needs it, so as not to inconvenience him as a young child.

But how could Xuan Shisan and Xuan 14 neglect their duties?

The servant Zheng Xi is used to observing words and expressions, so he immediately told about the fainting of the two people.

Needless to say, it was naturally done by King Chen.

"What, did those two guards offend King Chen?" Si Xingzheng's voice already had some warning.

It is disrespectful to dare to attack the emperor's guards.

Si Xingjian replied naturally: "I can't use the disobedient guards. I'd better ask their masters to take them back."

"Those two idiots..." Si Xingzheng laughed a little, "I trust their loyalty, so I let them be An'an's guards, but they are not flexible. They are good at martial arts, so keep them to protect An'an." .”

"I will let them listen to King Chen's orders."

There was an undeniable order in his tone.

Si Xingjian knew enough was enough, he took Zai Zai back and ignored such trivial matters.

At the time of parting, Si Xingjian handed an emerald finger ring to Si Xingzheng, "For you."

This finger was worn by the original owner, and he took it off when he took a bath.He doesn't like jewelry, so he puts it in his purse.

The jadeite is of high quality, pure in color and dazzling green.

Si Xingjian felt that she should remind her.

He didn't think the bloodline was so important, if the eldest prince really had the appearance of a wise king, then he could accept the eldest prince inheriting the throne.

It's just that he can see that the eldest prince is not the emperor's own, so others may not be unable to find out.

This is a hidden danger.

If people knew that the eldest prince was not of royal blood, he might take the opportunity to cause trouble, causing instability in the court and pushing his family to the forefront.

The first emperor had four sons, except for the brothers of the original owner, the remaining two were the successor's son, King Jing, and the son of Concubine Wu, Prince Gong.

Prince Jing and Prince Gong were in the same group, and they were already disposed of after the prince came to the throne because they attempted to seize power with the prince.

Prince Jing was sentenced to death, Prince Gong was imprisoned, and both of them were demoted to common people. Their descendants were beheaded or banned, and they were not eligible to enter the court.

Therefore, An An is the only one who is most qualified to inherit the Datong in the next generation.

This is the target of public criticism.

Moreover, if the emperor intends to cultivate An An, he must alienate him from his biological father.

This is what Si Xingjian doesn't want.

Si Xingzheng received an emerald finger ring, a little unclear, so, no matter from the status of the monarch and his ministers, or from the perspective of brotherhood, only those who are for the king and brother should reward or give gifts to the ministers and brothers.

The courtiers can only "present".

But Jinxian, you can't just give away the objects you have worn.Moreover, King Chen's fingers are thinner than his, so he can't wear them at all.

King Chen really doesn't distinguish between superiority and inferiority.

Si Xingzheng felt so disgusted in his heart, but he still took the wrench away.

Sitting on the carriage back to the palace, Si Xingzheng played with his fingers and asked casually: "You said, is there any deep meaning in sending this to me by King Chen?"

Zheng Xi was the only one waiting in the carriage, he knew all the inside information, but he also couldn't understand the meaning of King Chen's move.

Zheng Xi guessed: "Perhaps, King Chen just wanted to give His Majesty a personal thing that he likes to show his closeness?"

He is an old man serving His Majesty now, and he has witnessed the two brothers gradually becoming estranged and guarded against each other, and seeing His Majesty becoming a loner when he sits in a high position.

"At that time, the king was only a little old, and his majesty's foreign family lost power, and the empress didn't have a sacred heart. How hard life was at that time! It was all thanks to your majesty, so that King Chen could live in peace. ..."

Zheng Xi sighed.

"Perhaps King Chen has figured it out and knows His Majesty's kindness to him."

A look of reminiscence appeared on Si Xingzheng's face, and a smile appeared in his eyes, "When he was young, he was as cute as An An in rain and snow."

"Auntie was seriously ill, so I took him to the East Palace to protect him. At that time, I was only 13 years old, and I realized what it was like to be a father. It's just that he grew up slowly, and he had his own thoughts. However, Now... it looks a little pleasing to the eye."

Zheng Xi also laughed along, and even picked up a few interesting stories about the two of them getting along when they were young, and told them to amuse them.

It was rare for Si Xingzheng to really relax for a while, but he quickly stopped laughing.

"I didn't care about his small actions in the past. But if he dares to use any means against An An, don't blame me for not caring about A Niang's death."

Speaking of An An, he felt sore, and hummed: "After all, he is not his own. I have raised him for three years, but it is not as good as his own father spending a day with him..."

Zheng Xixin said: The eldest prince respects your Majesty as his own father, but you don't care too much!He only loves the little prince.

Although Xiaoshizi was raised in the palace, he knew that his own father was King Chen, so naturally he would not regard the emperor as his father.

Also, one is a nephew and the other is a wild son, it is self-evident which one His Majesty will prefer.

It's not easy, Your Majesty.

Zheng Xi felt a lot of emotions in his heart, but he couldn't say these words out of his mouth.

No man likes to be reminded that he raised a son for others, even a eunuch like him feels humiliated for His Majesty.

He can't have children, but at least no one makes him a bastard.

Zheng Xi suddenly had a flash of inspiration - bastard?turtle?Turtle slaves are used to wearing cuckolds; it is said that some women in the market do skin and flesh business after they get married.

Si Xingzheng saw Zheng Xi's expression changed, and asked, "What did you think of?"

Zheng Xi didn't dare to express his guess.

King Chen is His Majesty's younger brother, he has something to rely on, but he is just a servant, if he utters such insulting words, His Majesty will probably be offended.

Moreover, what if King Chen didn't mean that?Even if it meant this, King Chen could deny it.

But if he said it, it would be irrefutable.

If King Chen really meant that, then he can be described as daring!How dare you compare His Majesty with those lowly men.

But why did King Chen specially give His Majesty a green finger?Is it a hint, or a show off?

His Majesty grew up in the palace since he was a child, and has never been in contact with the dirty things in the world, so he can't think of that at all.

Zheng Xi's face wrinkled into an orange peel.

He knows too many secrets that he shouldn't bear, and he has to solve the troubles behind these secrets.

Facing His Majesty's inquiry, Zheng Xi tentatively said: "Maidservant guesses, could it be that King Chen has already guessed that the eldest prince is not of royal blood?"
