"What does it mean?" King Xiao did not understand the Duke of Zhenguo's meaning and roared angrily: "Don't keep it in front of me. What's going on? Tell me quickly!"

Duke Zhenguo was so angry that he was laughed at King Xiao's reaction. As far as he could speak, King Xiao didn't understand it thoroughly.

"I'll tell you the last time that Chu'er was not dead. Chu'er was rescued by someone." Duke Zhen said word by word: "The one who saved people is your emperor brother, Xiao Jingheng!"

"How is this possible?" King Xiao didn't believe it. How could the emperor brother save Chu'er?

The emperor was still in the palace at that time, and he had no chance to save people. It must be fake.

King Xiao held the collar of Duke Zhenguo tightly and asked angrily: "Are you playing tricks on me? How could you know these things? Since Chu'er is not dead, where is the person?"

Perhaps because he was beaten up very hard, the Duke Zhenguo's condition was a little unstable. King Xiao immediately asked someone to make a bowl of ginseng soup and poured it into Duke Zhenguo. Waiting for his expression to recover, he asked again.

"Chu'er was just pretending to die back then. After being buried by you, she was not dead yet and was rescued by Xiao Jingheng." As soon as Duke Zhen finished speaking, King Xiao suddenly realized: "As far as to say, Chu Yunning tried every means to divorce me because she had known that Chu'er was not dead and the emperor's brother..."

King Xiao pale in disbelief: "Everyone in all countries knows that the Southern Emperor has a resourceful Chu Shang Palace. On the battlefield of men, the emperor actually put the bitch Chu Yunning beside him. After Heli, the emperor also gave Chu Yunning an official position in Shang Palace, temporarily replacing the Fengyin..."

Duke Zhen frowned and looked at King Xiao in surprise, and then heard him muttering alone. It turned out that Beibei was the son of the emperor's brother, no wonder the emperor valued Chu Yunning so much.

"Ha! If Beibei is the descendant of the emperor's brother, it would not be surprising to let him ascend the throne with Chu Yunning's current ability."

This sentence fell into the ears of Duke Zhenguo. Duke Zhenguo was shocked and moved his throat. He didn't know what to explain to King Xiao for a moment.

I can't start from scratch either.

Could it be that Chu Yunning hated King Xiao after being irritated by Chu'er and then reunited with him?

When Chu Yunning entered the palace, he was to cure Xiao Jingheng's illness and to appease General Chu who went out to fight, so he would promote and take care of him everywhere.

The Duke Zhenguo swallowed it back when he reached his mouth. He found that he could not explain it clearly and was getting farther and farther from what he expected.

"The emperor's brother actually deceived me." King Xiao gritted his teeth and clenched his fists tightly in anger.

The prison cell was terrible. Duke Zhenguo didn't even dare to breathe, and stared at King Xiao's reaction silently.

After a long time, King Xiao looked up and stared at Duke Zhenguo: "You just said that Chu'er is not dead yet, and you need my heart blood to be used as medicine?"

"Yes, Chu'er is a weak disease caused by the womb, and is full of poisons. If the antidote is not found, Chu'er will definitely die." Duke Zhen looked at King Xiao carefully, and could not understand King Xiao's thoughts for a moment.

King Xiao's tense face slightly improved, and he pursed his lips.

"Actually, for the prince, the first thing he needs to do is to win over two children, especially Beibei." Duke Zhen cleared his throat: "Chu'er is weak, Beibei is the future king."

"That's not my child!"

Duke Zhen took a deep breath and decided to reveal the truth: "That's because the prince's body is also poisonous, but it's not fatal. Even if the prince's blood is recognized with his biological children, it will not merge."

Upon hearing this, King Xiao tightened all over.

"This is the secret of the royal family. Even if you and the Queen Mother recognize each other with blood, they will not blend together before detoxification."

The Duke of Zhenguo simply gave up and said it all: "Xiao Jingheng also has this poison on his body. This is because the poison brought by the empress dowager's body has been passed down from generation to generation. Before the late emperor died, he verified Xiao Jingheng before he died. He accidentally discovered that Xiao Jingheng was not a royal bloodline, so he issued a secret decree to let Xiao Jingyan succeed the throne."

King Xiao widened his eyes and felt incredible: "This... this is absolutely impossible!"

"The person who poisoned the poisoning back then was the imperial concubine, and the empress dowager was also aware of this matter. If the empress dowager was not smart, there might not be anyone who would sit on the throne."

At that time, there were a total of fifteen princes in the early emperor, but there were very few princes alive. Xiao Jingheng was the eldest son, with a noble status, intelligent since childhood, hard-working, and an example of many princes.

King Huai was ambitious, King Cheng was reckless, King Yun was weak... The only person who could compete with Xiao Jingheng's intelligence was Xiao Jingyan.

It’s a pity that Xiao Jingyan was born at the wrong time. She was too young when the late emperor was dying and was not enough to fight against the then crown prince Xiao Jingheng.

Even if the late emperor forcibly made a will to allow Xiao Jingyan to succeed the throne, Xiao Jingheng's power was enough to pull people down.

If the late emperor lives for a few more years, the southern end will not be in this situation today.

King Xiao returned to the main house in a daze, and Xi'er happened to be smiling in the wet nurse's arms. When he recalled Duke Zhenguo's words, he found an excuse to coax Princess Weiwu out and hugged Xi'er alone.

While no one was prepared, he took out a silver needle and stabbed Xi'er's toe and dripped it into the clear water. Then he quickly penetrated his own fingertips, dripping blood.

While coaxing the child, King Xiao looked at the two drops of blood in the bowl without blinking, scattering the two ends, each without blending!

Boom!

It seemed as if a muffled thunder exploded from King Xiao's mind. He knew very well that Xi'er was his child.

If it weren't for the Duke Zhenguo's words, he almost suspected that Xi'er was not his child either.

This... is so terrifying.

Why has the mother never mentioned it to herself?

The child in his arms was still crying. King Xiao patiently hugged and coaxed him for a while, then poured out the bowl of water, coaxed the child and handed it to the wet nurse.

At this moment, King Xiao's face was very bad, and he returned to the prison again. When Duke Zhenguo saw that the other party was so insane, he knew that he must have verified it.

"For the sake of telling me so much, I can let you go."

King Xiao was in a complicated mood, and there was a little more guilt in his eyes.

The Duke of Zhenguo sneered: "Where can I go in the world? Besides, I am also carrying the infamy of the traitor. As long as the prince swears in the name of his descendants, he will definitely let my descendants live well. I will tell the prince what the secret of the two children is?"

King Xiao nodded without hesitation: "I promise you."

"Okay!" Duke Zhenguo didn't keep much, and immediately said: "Don't worry, Xiao Jingheng's body is worse than you expected. He is also innocent at this moment. The second prince and the eldest princess in the palace are not Xiao Jingheng's children at all, but are just tricks to confuse everyone. The late emperor had long cut off Xiao Jingheng's descendants. Whether it was Chu'er or Beibei, they had nothing to do with Xiao Jingheng!"

After the words came to an end, King Xiao could not come back to his senses for a long time.
