Until this charming and handsome face appeared in front of his eyes, Ge Shu Wuluan felt his body and mind relax.
Until she touched the reassuring smile under the icy blue eyes, which seemed to give her endless convincing magic power, she suddenly felt a great power filling her whole body, her hands relaxed involuntarily, and she finally released her grip on King Chu. , finally, slowly stepped aside.
Then, as if he realized something, he glanced at the man who was petrified on the spot. For a moment, surprise flashed in his beautiful eyes, and then it turned into reality.
It turned out that he had something important to do, which was to find Crown Prince Hongli to persuade him to surrender. She knew early on that the two of them were old friends, so she didn't care that he could invite Crown Prince Hongli. Surprised.
But right now, what worries her is whether Crown Prince Hongli can persuade the rebellious King of Chu? !
Although they were father and son, their personalities were worlds apart. Hongli was respectful and virtuous, while the King of Chu was evil and sycophantic. Good and evil collided. She really didn't dare to judge whether the saying "evil can never defeat good" would be fulfilled.
Over there, the concubine in the iron cage had a look of surprise on her face at the sudden appearance of Prince Hongli, while the monarch's expression was relatively calm, so calm that it was surprising, and even more disturbing. Impenetrable emotions were secretly flowing in his eyes.
King Chu's face changed drastically when he heard the man calling. At this moment, he was leaning weakly on the back of the chair, taking a few mouthfuls of air to catch his breath. His thin face was mixed with blue and red, and his voice was hoarse. Said: "Hong'er, what are you doing here?!"
Although it was a deep voice, it was not difficult to hear the deliberately suppressed shock and anger.
After saying that, I saw him narrowing his cloudy eyes and glancing at Yan Qisha who was standing diagonally opposite. His eyes were dark and deep, which was undoubtedly puzzling.
Yan Qisha, on the other hand, faced his inquiring eyes needlessly, standing with his hands behind his hands with an indifferent expression, maintaining a calm and calm mood from beginning to end, and remained silent.
After hearing the questioning, Crown Prince Hongli seemed to have regained his consciousness. He moved his eyes from the iron cage to the face of King Chu, with a pale face and said in a painful voice: "Hong'er... If I don't come, I still don't know my father." Would do such a heinous thing... Father, Uncle Wang is your blood brother, how could you... "
At this point, he was choked with sobs and could hardly utter a single word. He could only look at the King of Chu with sad eyes.
He really couldn't believe that the man in front of him was his loving and kind father! For the sake of his own selfish desires, he did not hesitate to cut off his relatives and sever ties. At that time, he even used his filial piety to secretly order him to go to Beijing to petition in order to achieve his goal of returning to Beijing to cause rebellion...
He knew that his father had been disrespectful and unfriendly to Uncle Wang for many years. It was just because of the matter of his succession that he had been brooding over for a long time, and he could not let it go for a long time. He never expected that his father would rebel, and if Qisha hadn't found him in time, He came to persuade him to surrender, but he didn’t know what the consequences would be. !
Thinking of this, Crown Prince Hongli's face turned a little whiter.
His words put a look of anger on King Chu's face. Suddenly, he laughed wildly, "Hahaha... Rebellious?! Blood brothers?! Okay, I didn't expect these words to come from my beloved son. What he said!" Then his smile disappeared, and he glared at the king in the cage angrily, "Why don't you ask him, ask your good uncle Wang, what kind of dirty things did he do to fight for the throne? Something evil?!”
The sharp voice and deep meaning of the words resounded through the hall for a moment, reaching the ears of everyone present, who were all stunned by this.
Just as Crown Prince Hongli was stunned, he heard King Chu speak again. His voice was extremely sharp and sarcastic, but it was also as cold as if it had been tempered by nine winters of frost and snow. "Do you know how he could do it without any innate advantages back then?" Will he ascend that throne? In terms of honor and inferiority, he is just a concubine. How can he be qualified to compete with your father, the eldest son, to become the crown prince? In terms of favor, he is not as good as your uncle, the Third Prince... However, he is determined to win. In order to compete for the position of the crown prince, he almost used all kinds of methods, colluding with courtiers, secretly planting power, and stumbling between your father and me at every turn, until he completely trampled your father. However, he finally discovered that, I am not his biggest threat, his biggest threat is your unborn Third Prince! He knew very well that the late emperor loved Mrs. Chongjing, and he was even more fond of the dragon heir she was pregnant with. At that time Judging from the situation, the title of Crown Prince is likely to fall on your Third Prince Uncle. Therefore, he was afraid that he would end up making a wedding dress for others if he bothered to scheme. Therefore, he did not hesitate to give him the title of Crown Prince. Mrs. Jing, who was pregnant with Liujia at the time, poisoned her! It was just to remove the most threatening stumbling block to him. In the end, it caused Mrs. Jing to have difficulty in giving birth, which eventually led to the death of both mother and son! But, they How innocent?!"
At this point, King Chu's voice had become hoarse, and his eyes were red, stained with deep pain. It seemed that the mention of the death of Mrs. Jing and her son had touched his pain point, which was undoubtedly thought-provoking and puzzling.
But these words were obviously too shocking to be digested by Ge Shu Wuluan. These old things had been buried underground for many years and turned into dust over time. Who would have known what was hidden inside if he hadn't mentioned it? Hidden secret
However, judging from his excited and indignant mood, she could not detect the slightest distortion or false argument, which made her heart choke. She hurriedly looked at the monarch in the iron cage, only to see that the monarch's face was gloomy at this time, and even more so. Quite embarrassing.
In this way, the remaining doubts in Ge Shu Wuluan's heart were all wiped away, and he became more certain that King Chu's words were indeed not a lie. He was so shocked that he couldn't be more shocked.
He glanced at the concubine quietly, but saw that her complexion was not much better. Her beautiful face was filled with pale color, and she was obviously shocked to the point of disbelief by what King Chu said.
However, Brother Shu Wuluan was so shocked that he did not realize that Yan Qisha staggered slightly when King Chu said these shocking words. Then, he slowly closed his eyes, and then covered up his eyes. All the emotions in his eyes.
At this time, Crown Prince Hongli's face could no longer be described as pale. He was so shocked that his lips trembled and his whole body was stunned. He obviously did not expect that his Uncle Wang would do such a thing! In the end, I just didn't know why and stayed in place.
Suddenly, the King of Chu hoarse again, "Just because of his selfish desires, just because it hindered his way to the throne, he did one more cruel thing than the last... He plotted to frame his brother and killed his concubine with poison. , slaughtered his own brother! He killed one after another. What if this is not treason? At that time, did he ever say the words "blood brothers" and let your uncle go?! Hong'er, these Do you know everything? Ha... Of course you don't know. You were just a swaddled baby at that time. How could you know all this?! So, what my father is doing now is compared with his ruthlessness back then. Get up, it’s nothing more than a small witch seeing a big witch!”
These mocking words finally made the monarch unable to suppress his emotions. With a livid face, he shouted in a low voice: "Yin Mingwu, shut up!"
The King of Chu met his gaze fearlessly, leaned feebly on the back of his chair, and sneered: "Shut up?! Your Majesty, why do you want me to shut up? You think I have exposed all the 'good deeds' you have done, You can't keep up your face, right? Hahaha... It's really ridiculous! Jin Rui, Jin Rui, do you think that you did those things so well and hid them so deeply that you could deceive everyone? Tell you, I have noticed it a long time ago! That medical woman who protected Mrs. Jing’s pregnancy and took care of her until she gave birth, do you dare to say that she is not yours? Even if you deny it, I have already found out the fundamentals of that medical woman He is the poison master you invited from outside the palace!"
At that time, Mrs. Jing felt various discomforts during pregnancy, and her physical condition was even worse than that of other pregnant women. No matter how she nursed her back to health, it was of no avail, leaving all the imperial doctors helpless. Until she encountered dystocia on the night of delivery, she died after giving birth to a son. , followed closely by the newly born third prince.
The world just sighs, the sky does not miss the year, and the palace hurts the yin! But he vaguely felt that there was something fishy here, so he sent someone to secretly check the bodies of the mother and son before they were buried in coffins. Later, he found that the remains of the mother and son were both dark purple, which made him immediately aware of them. The mother and son did not die accidentally at all, but were killed and poisoned!
Although he was shocked and indignant about the incident at that time, because the late emperor was in deep sorrow over the sudden death of their mother and son, he could not bear to make the late emperor more sad, so he did not report the matter. He only wanted to investigate and find out the exact results. While waiting for the late emperor to slowly let go and be able to withstand such tragic and outrageous things, he can then make a report.
While secretly making this decision, he soon became suspicious of the medical woman who was taking care of Mrs. Jing. Because she was the only one who had many opportunities to take action, he secretly sent people to search for the whereabouts of the medical woman, hoping to find out her whereabouts. The mastermind was revealed, but unexpectedly, the medical woman hanged herself because of her dereliction of duty on the night of Mrs. Jing's death.
After the clues were interrupted, he was named King of Chu and sent to the fiefdom. However, he never gave up investigating the matter thoroughly. He left a secret clue in the palace early in the morning to conduct a secret investigation. Soon after, he finally made a major discovery. A secret informant came to report that the medical girl had had private contact with the second prince Jin Rui, who had not yet been married at that time. Although he was shocked, he still held a denial attitude, thinking more about brotherhood, and never made any comment. After reporting it, it was not until a year later that the exact clue was finally found, that is, the medical woman was actually a hidden poisonous doctor that Jin Rui had secretly recruited from outside the palace!
Because her poisoning methods were so extraordinary, the imperial doctors could not detect that Mrs. Jing had been poisoned when she was pregnant, which led to the tragic death of both mother and child!
However, these shocking and painful discoveries came too late, because at that time the late emperor had already passed away, and Jin Rui had already ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor...
