In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Zhou Zhan knelt on the ground. It has been six years. He has not been to the Hall of Mental Cultivation for six years. Ever since his mother and concubine disappeared, Zhou Zhan’s life has plummeted. I like myself. In the past six years, Zhou Zhan has tasted the warmth and coldness of human relationships, and he also knows that in this palace, only if he is liked by the emperor can he survive.
He has also guessed countless times, what exactly did the concubine mother do to make this happen, and as he grew up, after inquiring from outsiders, he knew that the concubine's mother's family, that is, his grandfather's family, had been confiscated and sent to prison Well, this situation can only be the case if the Shu family made a big mistake.
As a prince who is not valued by the emperor, Zhou Zhan has no one and no money in his hands. After two years of investigation, there is no result. Now, after six years, he has returned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and Zhou Zhan is trembling all over. , wanted to raise his head and question the emperor above, why he doted on him so much back then, but he was so indifferent to him afterwards.
Perhaps it should not be said to be indifference, but indifference.
After Zhou Zekai read a memorial, he looked at Zhou Zhan who was kneeling on the ground. He didn't really hate this child. Although he ascended the throne later, he was killed by his biological mother in the end. He was also a pitiful person, but Zhou Zekai He didn't want any messy things to happen in the Jin Dynasty, so Zhou Zhan must let Zhou Zhan know the truth of all this.
For example... Why did the second prince, who was once loved so much, end up in this fate
"Get up."
The voice above his head came, and Zhou Zhan slowly got up from the ground. At this time, the legs of the kneeling man were already numb, and he almost fell to the ground. Then he stood aside, and only dared to secretly look at himself The father who can act like a baby at will, in six years, time seems to have left no more traces on the father, but it reminded Zhou Zhan for a moment of his brother Zhou Yu, because although he is the first time in six years He saw his father once, but he could see a face similar to his father's face all day long.
This person is his imperial brother Zhou Yu. Since Zhou Yu helped him teach the eunuch a lesson three years ago, he has been taking good care of him. Although he has a grudge against Zhou Yu, he is also very grateful. , and only Zhou Yu called the imperial physician, and was willing to look at him in undressed clothes. That was the only warmth that Zhou Zhan could feel in this palace.
He wanted to ask Brother Huang countless times about his mother and concubine, but he never asked.
"Father..."
The titles he had yelled countless times in his dreams became a little dull at this moment, and Zhou Zekai couldn't help sighing. He knew that it was Shu Huiyun's fault and had nothing to do with this child, but he still felt somewhat uncomfortable.
"Okay, come with me."
Get up from the chair, then go out, Zhou Zhan wanted to ask, but didn't dare, so he could only walk out with his father, and after walking for a long distance, Zhou Zhan felt that the surrounding scenery became more and more unfamiliar , but he didn't dare to ask more, Wang Daxi who followed behind also had a condensed expression.
It has been six years. Shu Huiyun and Zhou Zeyan have been imprisoned in the confinement of this palace for six years. The two of them planned to escape secretly before, but now they blame each other for dragging their feet. Shu Huiyun even thinks that if It would be great if Zhan'er wasn't Zhou Zeyan's son, she was still a lofty imperial concubine, but she never thought that it was because she poisoned the emperor in the first place that she ended up like this.
When they arrived at the room where the two were imprisoned, Wang Daxi went to open the door himself, and Zhou Zekai walked in slowly. Zhou Zhan, who was following behind, suddenly felt a little nervous. After entering the room, he found that the room was pitch black and very Quickly, Wang Daxi came over with the Ye Mingzhu, lighting up the whole room.
Shu Huiyun and Zhou Zeyan squinted their eyes at this time. Their eyes, which had been used to the darkness, suddenly saw the light at this moment, and they were a little caught off guard. Zhou Zhan looked at the woman imprisoned on the wooden stick, and his pupils constricted instantly. Looking at that woman in disbelief...
Although Zhou Zhan was only five years old at that time, he was already very smart. He remembered Shu Huiyun's appearance. In the past six years, he had been thinking about what mistakes and things his mother and concubine had made, but he never expected that he would be so smart at such a time. See mother and concubine.
"Mother Concubine..."
Unable to hold back the cry, Shu Huiyun, who was squinting, quickly opened her eyes. She tried her best to see the person in front of her, but found that besides Zhou Zekai, there was a young man who came this time. Take a closer look. Look, it turned out to be his son Zhou Zhan.
"Zhaner... my Zhaner..."
Unable to hold back the tears, tears fell immediately. Although Shu Huiyun's love for Zhou Zeyan had been wiped out over the years, she couldn't kill a woman's motherhood. She was still most worried about Zhou Zhan every time. In order to prevent Zhou Zekai from killing Zhou Zekai Zhan tried her best to meet Zhou Zekai's demands, and it was precisely because of this that she was not killed.
Zhou Zeyan on the side also hurriedly looked at Zhou Zhan. All his heirs were killed by Zhou Zekai, and there was only one son left, Zhou Zhan. Such a son can be counted on.
Although Zhou Zhan saw his mother, he also understood that it must have been a mistake for his mother to be locked up here by his father. Otherwise, he would not have ended up like this. He immediately looked at his father, but he did not plead for mercy, because he knew, Since his father brought him here, he must have told his mother what happened back then.
Zhou Zekai was very satisfied with the child's intelligence, and smiled at the couple who now hate each other.
"Now that the child has grown up, it's time to know his life experience, Concubine Ai, do you want me to tell him personally, or you to tell him?"
People always have to pay the price for their own choices, just like when Shu Huiyun had an affair with Zhou Zeyan while enjoying the treatment of the imperial concubine, she should have known what would happen to them after the incident happened, and this child, How embarrassing it would be.
An illegitimate child... In the ancient environment, if this status was despised by others, if outsiders knew it, Zhou Zhan would not talk about his current status as the second prince, but whether this little life could be saved was still the same thing!
Shu Huiyun looked at her son's excited eyes and suddenly froze, her eyes fell on Zhou Zekai. She actually didn't know this person, she always felt that after she took the ice pill that time, this person seemed to be a different person after recovering from illness, although The system can't scan whether this person is reborn, but Shu Huiyun still can't see this man clearly...
She used everything in the system to ensure that her son was able to live well. In fact, she did not have a trace of doubt in her heart. Now, she knew that her son was still alive, and she was actually relieved.
When Zhou Zhan heard this, his heart skipped a beat. His gaze finally fell on the man beside him. A huge guess in his heart made him turn pale. Although he had never seen this man before, he could feel the man Similar to himself, compared to his elder brother, he doesn't seem to resemble his father, but now after seeing this man, Zhou Zhan finally knows who he looks like.
"Zhan'er... Zhan'er... It's all concubine mother who is sorry for you... Concubine mother is sorry for you..."
At this time, Shu Huiyun looked at her son's pale face and knew that his son might have guessed the answer. She apologized in embarrassment, but she didn't have the courage to say that her son was actually Zhou Zeyan's child. Before that, she always thought that she would succeed in making her son Sitting on the dragon chair and becoming the empress dowager herself, no one would know about this matter, but now, after six years of thinking, Shu Huiyun realized how embarrassing her son should be after being exposed.
He was originally the son of the emperor, the proud son of heaven, but in a blink of an eye he became the illegitimate son of a prince, a prince whose house was confiscated, and his mother and concubine even betrayed the emperor and had an affair with someone. Lost everything about Zhou Zhan.
Hearing his mother's crying voice, Zhou Zhan felt a rumble in his head. Only then did he realize what had happened. He was not the son of his father, but an illegitimate child born of an affair with someone! The affair between mother and concubine was discovered by the emperor six years ago, and then he was imprisoned here, and he was completely hated by the emperor...
Everything seemed to have come to an end. Zhou Zhan's eyes were red, and he held his hand tightly by his side, but he couldn't say a word. He wanted to look up at his father, but suddenly remembered that he was not the emperor. His son, how can he have the right to be called Father Emperor
"Okay, none of this is your fault." Zhou Zekai saw the child's eye circles were red, and he knew the child's intelligence, so he stretched out his hand to pat Zhou Zhan's shoulder and said.
"Your elder brother knew about this three years ago, but he was still willing to take care of you. I was shocked when I found out about this and couldn't face you, but it's not your fault. Zhan'er, I'm taking care of you now." If you know the truth, I want you to know the thoughts in my heart for the past six years, Daxi will tell you everything that happened that year, please listen carefully, and then tell me if you have any thoughts."
After finishing speaking, Zhou Zekai turned around and left. There are some things needless to say, for a smart kid like Zhou Zhan, letting him know the truth is the best result for him.
Zhou Zhan stood in the room where his father and mother were imprisoned, and learned everything from Wang Daxi, whether it was the mother and concubine who poisoned Zhou Zekai, the queen who was lingering on the sick bed, and the barren concubine. Everything is due to the greed of the mother and concubine.
"My father is only one."
Knowing all this, Zhou Zhan suddenly calmed down, let Wang Daxi go out, and stayed in that room by himself.
After that, Zhou Zekai received the latest news from the dark guard in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
The second prince Zhou Zhan personally killed the imperial concubine Shu Huiyun and the third prince Zhou Zeyan. On the second day, Zhou Zhan invited himself to guard the tomb of the Zhou clan. Zhou Yu, who knew the news, wanted to stop him, but was refused. Zhou Zekai personally approved this matter.
And Zhou Zhan, after killing his father and mother, completely stayed away from the capital...
