In the Zichen Hall, Zheng Jifu finished saluting Emperor Yongning and said with concern: "Father, you must take the dragon body as your priority. Brother Three Emperors..." qs
She paused, as if she didn't know what to say.
Emperor Yongning glanced at her and his voice was slightly hoarse: "Chang Ding, what did you hear?"
He is not a young man after all. He was busy late last night and looked very tired.
Zheng Ji replied with a smile: "Well, I heard that my father summoned the prince and the three emperor brothers overnight, and also heard my father's decree..."
She couldn't act like she didn't know anything about what happened in Zichen Palace last night, but she couldn't act like she knew the details about Zichen Palace.
Everything is in crisis.
She seemed to think about it for a while, but she mustered up the courage to say: "Father, the Third Emperor brother just likes to eat, drink and have fun. I'm afraid he can't change it. Father... why are you so angry? Yinzhou, I heard that The place is poor and remote..."
"Chang Ding, do you really not know why I am angry?" Emperor Yongning said warmly.
Zheng Ji was stunned: "Father, what are you talking about? If I knew why you were angry, I would have scolded Brother Sanhuang a long time ago."
She blurted out these words with a confused and natural expression, as if she really didn't understand what was going on.
Emperor Yongning tapped his fingers on the royal table and said slowly: "The third child wants to murder me, he..."
"Impossible! Father, it is impossible for the Third Emperor Brother to do this!" Zheng Ji said decisively, interrupting Emperor Yongning's words.
"Oh? Why is it impossible?"
Zheng Ji looked up at him and replied matter-of-factly: "Father, isn't this obvious? Brother Sanhuang only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, so how could he think of plotting against father? Besides..."
She lowered her voice, but still said quickly: "Brother Sanhuang doesn't have the brains either!"
After saying that, she hurriedly added: "Father, I didn't mean to say that Brother Three Emperors is stupid, it's just that... I just think it's impossible."
very good!
Emperor Yongning completely understood that in Chang Ding's mind, the third child was a fool.
Precisely because of his stupidity, he will not be murdered.
After all, to murder a person, especially the current emperor, requires extraordinary intelligence and extraordinary means.
And the third child doesn't have either of these.
Emperor Yongning had never thought about this issue before, but now it clicked in his mind.
Third child, could this be the case?
Before entering the palace, Zheng Ji had already thought about it, and this time he wanted to speak for King Yi.
She didn't want to protect King Yi. In fact, when she thought about the things done by King Yi's Mansion and the Zhou family in the previous life, she hated it extremely.
Prince Yi's Mansion can be defeated or fell, but not now.
Even though her father has decreed that King Yi be imprisoned in Shannan Road, it does not mean that she has to sever her relationship with King Yi.
King Yi, Concubine Zhou Shu, and the Zhou family have been operating in Jingzhao and among the scholars for so many years, and there are always some unknown forces.
These forces could block the Crown Prince's forces and buy her time invisibly.
"Moreover, why did Brother Sanhuang do this? There is a saying among the people that a child with a father and mother is like a treasure. Only with a father can we live happily. Anyway, that's what I think, and Brother Three Emperors probably also Roughly the same."
Speaking of this, she hesitated for a moment, as if she was willing to give it all, "Father, the prince is a very good brother, but I... I don't like to be called "Princess Changding." "
After saying that, she frowned and said coquettishly: "Father, please don't be angry with me."
What she is saying now is really treasonous.
When will others call her Princess Chang Ding? That must be after Emperor Yongning's great success and the crown prince ascends the throne!
Who dares to say such words? That is, she, the much-loved Princess Chang Ding, dared to say it.
When Emperor Yongning heard this, instead of being angry, he burst into laughter and pointed at Zheng Ji: "Changding, you, you..."
Xue Gong stood beside Emperor Yongning, his expression respectful and gentle as usual, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
How wonderful it is to hear what His Highness Changding said!
The so-called high place is too cold, but the emperor sits in this position and kills everyone. Who can speak to the emperor without hesitation and careful consideration?
Only His Highness Changding can speak without any scruples.
Behind this lack of scruple, what is reflected is trust, and what is revealed is sincerity.
Trust and sincerity are also rare things for the emperor who has everything.
If all concerns about balance are put aside, among all the princes and princesses, the one the Emperor loves the most must be His Highness Chang Ding.
Isn't that what it is now?
Originally, the emperor summoned His Highness Chang Ding to inquire about Lord Cheng's death and Lord Dou's visit. However, His Highness Chang Ding just said these words and the emperor was happy.
Even the emperor is like this, so it is normal that a small chamberlain like him has no way to deal with His Highness Chang Ding.
Listening to Emperor Yongning's laughter, Zheng Ji's eyes were blank, but his heart was calm.
Sure enough, the most important thing is to attack the heart. To break the suspicion of the father, the only way is to use family affection.
There is no family affection in the royal family. This is almost an iron rule in everyone's mind. However, family affection is the most useful weapon.
This truth was realized by Zheng Ji through many hardships in his previous life.
While Emperor Yongning was happy, Zheng Ji asked, "Father, why did you summon me to the palace?"
It should be that Prince Yi's Mansion and the Crown Prince are involved in her, but I don't know what happened.
Emperor Yongning's smile faded a little, and then he asked, "I heard that Dou Shiyuan went to visit you?"
"Yes, it was for Master Cheng's death." Zheng Ji answered openly, not feeling the need to hide anything.
She explained: "Father, Dou Shiyuan came here to thank me. It turns out that Dou Shiyuan's grandfather and Cheng Yong actually had a personal grudge. Does Father know about these things?"
Dou Shiyuan's grandfather Dou Gui and Cheng Yong had a dispute many years ago, and the two had many disagreements in the court. Dou Shiyuan has said all this.
This was originally meant to deal with the rhetoric outside, but I didn't expect it to be used here by my father.
Then, King Yi and the Crown Prince must have mentioned Dou Shiyuan last night, and it should be related to Deng Wuyou.
No wonder Feng Chenwei went to the Dou family to search for something, but since the Dou family was affected, why was the Dou family still safe?
Zheng Ji was puzzled, but he couldn't verify it.
At this moment, she was actually not in a hurry, because she already had the answer to what she wanted to verify most.
After learning that King Yi was taken away by Fengchen Guard, she knew that the prince had taken action first - the half of Deng Wuyou in her hand no longer needed to be risked on her father.
She originally wanted to use this half of Deng Wuyou to let King Yi and the Crown Prince fight against each other. Unexpectedly, the Crown Prince had the same plan!
The prince has been entrenched in the court for many years and has more power than her, so he can be one step ahead of her.
but……
Since the prince was one step ahead, why is she still safe and sound now? What happened in Zichen Palace last night?
