Zhao Xin's face changed several times, and he reluctantly said, "He is another legitimate son of this king."
After all, Zhao Xin had been able to survive under Zhao Gan and had been in the court for many years. He could barely maintain his superficial emotions, but Zhao Zhongsheng next to him could no longer hide his expression.
His face was dark and cold, even vaguely dissatisfied.
There were not only the four of them in the palace, but also a number of palace maids and eunuchs. Behind Zhao Jin, there were Shouquan and Fukang standing on the left and right.
Fukang was the chief eunuch of the East Palace. After Zhao Jin took over the East Palace, he surrendered to Zhao Jin and stayed with him all the time.
"I have heard about the king's affairs." Zhao Jin's tone was very light, but Zhao Xin couldn't help but feel nervous.
What does prince mean?
Zhao Xin was not surprised that Zhao Jin would investigate him. However, the other party specifically mentioned Zhao Zhongru. Did he only know about this scandal, or did he know something more.
Originally, Zhao Xin was very confident that Zhao Jin would not know their plan.
After all, few people in the Communist Party knew about this matter, and the possibility that Zhao Jin could find out the information was extremely slim.
Now Zhao Xin is not sure, Zhao Jin really doesn't know anything.
After Zhao Jin said this, he added: "However, it seems that the two legitimate sons of the middle king have quite different personalities."
Zhao Zhongsheng's face was dark and sullen, but it still didn't get better. The arrogance that had been suppressed in his eyes could no longer be hidden. It was mixed with dissatisfaction and anger leaked out.
Zhao Zhongru, who was slightly behind, although he spoke little, entered the main hall. In addition to saluting, he only said a few words when returning to Zhao Jin, and he also deliberately stood at the back.
However, his expression was always calm. Occasionally, when his eyes glanced at Zhao Xin, Zhao Zhongsheng and Zhao Jin, they were all gentle and indifferent.
Even if Zhao Xin deliberately ignored him, Zhao Zhongru never showed dissatisfaction or anger.
Zhao Xin turned his head and glanced at his two sons, and his vision almost went dark.
Regardless of everything else, the way Zhao Zhongsheng behaves in a black face in front of Zhao Jin is enough to ruin his impression in front of Zhao Jin!
Zhao Xin said a little nervously: "Zhong Sheng has always been more exposed in his emotions and is used to being straightforward. However, for the vassal country located in a corner, he is just right."
The implication is that Zhao Zhongru has a deep and scheming mind, while Zhao Zhongsheng has a straightforward temperament.
If Zhao Jin didn't know about Zhao Zhongsheng's instigation of Zhao Xin's rebellion, he might really think that Zhao Zhongsheng's straightforward temperament was quite good.
but……
He glanced at Zhao Zhongru without leaving any trace.
The other party's expression didn't change much. I don't know if he didn't hear the implication of Zhao Xin's words, or if he was used to it, so it didn't affect his emotions.
Zhao Zhongsheng reacted suddenly and quickly calmed down the expression on his face, becoming much more respectful.
"The common people have lost their composure. Please forgive me, Your Highness."
Zhao Jin waved his hands indifferently and said in a gentle tone, "It's okay. Being straightforward is not a bad thing."
In the depths of the city, Zhao Zhongru, who was hiding all his thoughts in his heart in order to survive and regain his things, had troubles in his eyes and his heart was tense.
He couldn't control it, raised his head slightly and glanced at Zhao Jin's expression, but he couldn't distinguish anything.
Zhao Zhongru didn't know if Zhao Jin really preferred the so-called straightforward temperament. If so...
His Adam's apple rolled.
No matter what, he had to give it a try. This might be his only chance.
"It's just that since the middle king has two legitimate sons, although the prince prefers Zhong Sheng, the eldest son is Zhong Ru after all." Zhao Jin was a little embarrassed, and his voice was hesitant.
"Your Highness." Zhao Xin said quickly: "Zhong Sheng is more suitable for the position of Prince Wang than Zhong Ru."
Zhao Zhongsheng was silent at this moment. He knew that his performance just now was not good. If he spoke any more, he would probably push the crown prince's position towards Zhao Zhongru.
Regardless of whether they reply
After leaving, should they raise an army immediately? Once Zhao Zhongru becomes the prince, it will not be a good thing for them.
Zhao Jin pondered for a moment and did not express his opinion directly, "After all, this matter is of great importance. The king and the two princes have come all the way, so they must be tired now."
"If the matter is not urgent, why not go back and rest first, and wait a few days before discussing this matter."
Zhao Xin was obviously reluctant, but he knew clearly that Zhao Jin had already said something and could not get a result now, so he had to reluctantly say: "Your Highness said it politely."
"Shouquan, take the king and the two princes down to rest."
Zhao Xin and Zhao Qian were really related by blood, but Zhao Jin did not call Zhao Xin his uncle even though he called King Yan his uncle.
Make a distinction between superior and inferior.
The people in the palace are all human beings, and they immediately understood that in the heart of the prince, the king of Zhong was not as good as the king of Yan, and he was not as dedicated in serving him.
The king was naturally dissatisfied. He didn't believe that Zhao Jin was not afraid of these princes and was worried that they would take action. So was he doing this to give him a disincentive?
If this is really the case, no matter how unwilling the king is to admit it, he cannot deny that Zhao Jin's move was successful.
Zhao Xin did not dare to act rashly.
Zhao Jin had the courage to treat him like this, a prince who was far away from Bianzhou City, which meant that Zhao Jin must not be very worried about his rebellion, and he should have some trump cards in his hand.
He had to know what Zhao Jin's trump card was, whether he could resist, and whether he could raise troops now.
As soon as Zhao Xin and others arrived at the resting palace, they sent the palace guests out. Zhao Zhongsheng and Zhao Xin nestled in Zhao Xin's palace.
"What does Zhao Jin mean by this? Do you want to make Zhao Zhongru the crown prince?" Zhao Xin was the first to speak, with obvious confusion on his expression.
"No matter what the prince's intentions are, he should be suspicious of us." Zhao Zhongsheng narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a deep voice.
It was a show of intimidation, and it was a deliberate reference to Zhao Zhongru.
Since Zhao Jin knew about that matter, there was no reason why he should not be aware of Zhao Zhongru's embarrassing position in the Prince's Palace. He still said this, either because he was really thinking about it or because he was deliberately testing it.
"Doubt, it's okay to just doubt. I'm afraid that he really knows something. This trip to Beijing is the Hongmen Banquet!" Zhao Xin said a little eagerly and stood up directly.
Zhao Xin was aware of the previous fight between Zhao Jin and the aristocratic family.
At Chu Xiao's time, how could a mere minister of the Ministry of Punishment have such great ability to investigate everything that the Yao family had done?
Behind Chu Xiao, it was clearly Zhao Jin. Those things were not so much found out by Chu Xiao as they were handed over to Chu Xiao after Zhao Jin found them out.
It can be seen that Zhao Jin definitely has many capable people.
"Father, it's useless for us to be anxious now. Soldiers will come to stop us, and water will come to cover us."
