Speaking of the eldest prince's concubine, Li Jingxing didn't know how to comfort her.
Li Jingye did not want Li Jingxing to comfort him, and said to himself: "Not only is the fourth child deeply favored by the father, but Concubine Rou is also favored in the harem. It is not easy to make the mother and son fall out of favor."
Not to mention making them fall out of favor, according to the current situation, it would be difficult to prevent Concubine Rou and the fourth child from becoming more and more favored.
Li Jingxing was silent for a moment and said hesitantly: "I heard an interesting story. I wonder if I am interested in it?"
Li Jingye was aroused by his hesitation and asked, "What's the matter?"
Li Jingxing said slowly: "I heard that Concubine Rou accidentally fell down when she was eight months pregnant and gave birth to her fourth child prematurely."
Li Jingye's heart beat wildly: "Then what?"
"I searched for a long time and found that people related to Concubine Rou's pregnancy and childbirth either died suddenly due to various accidents, or they were not alive but their bodies were not seen. It is very strange."
Li Jingye's eyes were shocked. The more clean those people were dealt with, the more it showed that there was something wrong with Concubine Rou.
"Could it be that Concubine Rou has stolen a dragon and turned into a phoenix?"
Li Jingxing glanced at Li Jingye without saying a word.
Li Jingye's heart was beating like a drum when he looked at him. Could it be that he had been conservative in his guess?
"If it's just a matter of stealing a dragon and turning a phoenix into a phoenix, why should we execute the maidservant who served Concubine Rou before she entered the palace?"
Li Jingye was shocked and speechless, which meant that there was something wrong with Concubine Rou's stomach before she entered the palace!
It’s impossible for the father to sleep with Concubine Rou before she entered the palace, right?
It was possible, but his intuition was otherwise.
He seems to know a shocking secret!
After a long time, Li Jingye gritted his teeth and said, "I'll send someone to check too!"
Otherwise, if the fourth child is allowed to sit in that position, the Li family may have to change their names!
Li Jingxing was waiting for his words.
Li Jingye's mother-in-law is a virtuous concubine, and her mother-in-law is a protector of the country. Their comprehensive strength is comparable to his in all aspects, so he has always regarded Li Jingye as his number one competitor. Maybe Li Jingye can find clues to things that he cannot find out.
Li Jingye is a gentleman, but he is not. As long as he kills the fourth child, he is sure to win against Li Jingye.
"Brother, my father is very prejudiced against me. No matter what I do, my father will not believe me easily. Therefore, I can only leave Brother Lao to compete with the fourth child for favor."
Speaking of this, Li Jingye couldn't help but feel guilty. If he hadn't thought that the murderer was Li Jingxing and applied eye drops in front of his father, Li Jingxing would not have been punished by his father.
"I will clarify the matter of the assassin to my father. My second brother does not need to worry."
Li Jingxing said nonchalantly: "My father hates me not because of this incident. If the eldest brother identifies the fourth child as the murderer to his father, not only will he not be able to convince his father, but he will also arouse the vigilance of the fourth child. The gain outweighs the loss."
"Then we can't let my father misunderstand you." Li Jingye's conscience did not allow him to let Li Zetian misunderstand Li Jingxing when he knew the truth.
Li Jingxing had already thought of a countermeasure and said, "The position of right minister of the Ministry of Rites is vacant. Big brother can arrange for a reliable person to come over."
Li Jingye was stunned for a moment before he reacted: "What you mean is, let me pretend to be bribed by you with benefits, and then let you forget about your 'assassination' of me. This way I will not only have a reason to excuse you in front of my father, but also be able to confuse you." Fourth child?"
Li Jingxing nodded: "If you and I reconcile for no reason, there must be suspicions on the Fourth's side. Now is not the time to alert the enemy."
Li Jingye thought for a while and felt that Li Jing's words made sense. He couldn't think of a better solution, but...
"But in this case, wouldn't I be taking advantage of my second brother?"
Li Jingxing smiled and said, "Brother, don't worry about owing me any favors, and don't worry about me opening my mouth like a lion. I just hope that at the right time in the future, eldest brother can speak kindly to me in front of my father."
Li Jingye looked at Li Jingxing suspiciously.
The second child loves scheming and scheming the most. He never wants to suffer a loss. Are you really so kind?
Li Jingxing said frankly: "Brother also knows that my father has a deep prejudice against me. For me, letting my father change his mind about me is more effective than any other benefit."
These words were frank and straightforward, and they were in line with Li Jingxing's character of not being able to get up early. Li Jingye finally dared to believe Li Jingxing this time.
Li Jingye solemnly promised: "Second brother, don't worry. When the opportunity comes, I will definitely speak kindly to you in front of my father!"
"Thank you, brother." Li Jingxing believed that Li Jingye kept his word. Besides, the more wronged he was now, the more guilt his father would feel for him when the truth was revealed in the future. It was a sure-fire deal.
The two discussed some more things before Li Jingye quietly left.
After Li Jingye left, Chiyang walked out from behind the screen and asked Li Jingxing curiously.
"Your Highness, the eldest prince?"
Li Jingxing smiled and said: "The eldest brother is a gentleman of Qingfenglangyue, so of course he can be trusted."
Chiyang nodded: "That's true."
[If the eldest prince becomes emperor, he should be a wise king. 】
Li Jingxing was a little unconvinced.
If he becomes emperor, won't he be a wise king?
Although he is not as upright and upright as his eldest brother, at least he will not be as unscrupulous as the fourth brother, sacrificing the lives of frontier people and border guards for his own selfish desires.
"Your Highness, the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet will be held in more than ten days. At that time, the musicians and dancers from the Jiaofang Division will perform at the palace banquet. There have been cases of assassins pretending to be dancers to assassinate the emperor. If you are free, Your Highness may wish to send Check with the Jiaofang Division."
Just now, Li Jingye and Li Jingxing were talking about competing for favor, and she was so happy that she remembered something that was neither big nor small.
[At the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet in the previous life, an assassin sneaked into the dancers and assassinated the emperor's uncle during the dance. 】
[At the critical moment, Li Jingxiao used his body as a shield to block the sword for the emperor's uncle, and Gu Qingzhi ordered the miracle doctor to save Li Jingxiao's life. 】
[Subsequently, Concubine Rou was named Concubine Rou. Li Jingxiao asked the emperor's uncle to grant Gu Qingzhi to her as the royal concubine on the grounds of saving her life. 】
[This incident is very strange, and it was probably a trick directed and performed by Li Jingxiao. 】
Li Jingxing fell into deep thought. This fourth old lady was very good at something. If Chiyang hadn't been reborn, he could hear Chiyang's voice again, and he really couldn't play with her.
I have to accept it!
Chiyang was a little worried that Li Jingxing would not take it seriously. Unexpectedly, Li Jingxing nodded solemnly: "I will send someone to the Jiaofang Division to investigate later."
Chiyang breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Li Jingxing listened to more advice in this life than in the previous life.
"Your Highness, what should Rong Yunyun do today?"
[You don’t want me to rob someone again. 】
[Everyone in the house is now saying that I am domineering and arrogant, and my aunt has sent people to persuade me. 】
Li Jingxiao chuckled and said: "I am grounded by my father, so how can I be in the mood to sleep with a woman in the backyard?"
Chiyang thinks about it and thinks it makes sense.
"That's a good idea."
