Three hundred and nineteenth chapter self-defeating
The secret room at the end of the right side of the seventh floor of the Seventh Level Palace was where Long Xiao was imprisoned. Long Ming went straight there, walking in a hurry and exempting all notifications. He wanted to ask Long Xiao about this matter as soon as possible, and then go investigate William He
There was only half an hour left before the trial time for Yu and others' actions, so he had to race against time.
The door of the secret room opened, and Long Lin walked in quickly. Long Xiao was sitting on the chair in front of the desk, eating breakfast slowly. Seeing Long Lin's arrival, Long Xiao was a little surprised, raised his eyes, and asked in surprise:
"Ling, the arraignment time is coming soon. Shouldn't you be making preparations at the Hall of Justice? Why are you rushing over to see me?"
"Father, I have something important to ask you." Long Lin said bluntly. There was no time to waste. Maybe William Heyu and the others had already taken action.
"What's the matter?" Long Xiao put down the tableware in his hands and looked at him with a smile.
"You all retreat and close the door." Long Lin turned around and ordered the followers and officers behind him.
"Yes, Your Highness Lin." Everyone retreated and closed the heavy iron door. This room had a high-end soundproofing system, so no one could hear their conversation from outside.
"What happened?" Long Xiao looked at Long Lin lovingly.
Long Lin walked to the desk, looked at Long Xiao solemnly, and said seriously: "Father, there is only half an hour left before the trial. Everything is about to end. It's time for you to tell me the truth."
Long Xiao was stunned for a moment. An extremely complicated light quickly passed through his blue eyes, but he quickly calmed down and asked calmly: "Ling, why do you suddenly ask this? Have you heard what others said?
What? Don’t believe those rumors, my father is..."
"Father, please stop hiding it. Please tell me your eldest brother's true life experience. Hurry, I don't have time."
Before Long Xiao finished speaking, he was interrupted by Long Lin's urgent words. Long Lin was really impatient. It was a race against time. He didn't have the patience to delay it any longer. If he could wait a little longer, he might be able to hear it.
It was obvious that what he asked and what Long Xiao answered were not the same thing at all.
"Yi's... true life experience?" Long Xiao looked at Long Lin in astonishment. He almost misunderstood that Long Lin wanted to ask about another secret. He didn't expect that it was just this matter. Fortunately, his words were interrupted by Long Lin,
No clues were revealed.
"Yes, please tell me, whose son is Yi? Are he and I related by blood?"
Long Lin put his arms on the desk and looked at Long Xiao eagerly and solemnly. This question is the key. If he and Long Yi are really related by blood, it proves that Long Yi is indeed the biological son of his mother. Then he will
There is a reason to help Long Yi, because Long Yi would not have the heart to hurt his biological mother.
As long as the queen mother and father are not harmed, Long Lin can temporarily put aside the fight for the throne to help Long Yi.
Therefore, the key lies in Long Yi's identity.
"Why do you ask that? What did you hear?" Long Xiao frowned and looked at Long Lin uneasily.
"Father, do you still remember seven days ago? The day after you were imprisoned, the queen mother came to visit you. I heard everything you said here. In your conversation, you said that the queen mother once had an affair with William Heji.
A child, but was killed by his mother through a strange combination of circumstances, and Long Yi was not her biological son, but the child born to William Heji and a woman named Lan Yan. Is this true? "
Long Ming told this matter straight to the point because he firmly believed that his father would not betray him or expose his eavesdropping. Moreover, he had no time to explain any more.
"Since you have heard everything, why are you still asking me?" Long Xiao lowered his eyes sadly. This past incident was a shame for him, especially when it was mentioned in front of Long Lin, he felt even more ashamed.
"Now I heard another legend. Some people said that Long Yi is the child of the mother queen and William Heji. However, the child of William Heji and Lan Yan is not dead, but someone else. So, I am here to confirm it for you.
"
When he said this, Long Lin stared sharply into Long Xiao's eyes, trying to get some clues from Long Xiao's eyes. He believed that his father must know this secret. This legend was deduced by himself based on Lan Yan's words.
, Lan Yan said that she and Long Yi were half-brothers and sisters, while Long Yi and Long Lin were half-brothers. He thought for a long time before coming up with this conjecture. Only in this way could this matter be reasonable.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Long Xiao looked very shocked, but soon he calmed down again, stared at Long Lin displeased, and shouted angrily: "Who did you listen to? Who said this?"
"Father, I know this matter is very unfair to you, but time is urgent now and I need your confirmation. Is this true?" Long Lin frowned and asked seriously. He was too eager to think.
Knowing this secret, he had no patience to analyze Long Xiao's abnormal reaction.
"Why are you so urgently asking me about this matter at this critical moment? What is the reason?"
Long Xiao didn't answer the question. Even at this moment, he was still able to maintain a clear and rational mind and control the overall situation. He knew his son very well, and he knew that Long Lin must have a reason for asking him like this.
After a few seconds of silence and hesitation, Long Lin lowered her eyes and said in a low voice: "Something happened to the queen mother. Half an hour ago, she was suddenly poisoned for no apparent reason. Now she is completely unconscious, like a walking zombie.
She has no thought and no consciousness. Before her consciousness disappeared, she said something to me, asking me to help Long Yi. But I wanted to find out Long Yi's identity first.
Father, I know that after hearing about this, you will definitely scold me for being narrow-minded and callous. At this time, I only think about my own interests and ignore the brotherhood of my elder brother. You have always taught me to be kind and upright.
, I think you must want me to help Long Yi unconditionally, but I can't do it."
Having said this, Long Lin raised his eyes and looked at Long Xiao, and said firmly: "I know how much Long Yi hates the Queen Mother. Now that William Heyu has joined forces with him, they may have found evidence of the Queen Mother's crime back then. If Long Yi is not the Queen Mother's
I can't help him because he is my own flesh and blood. If he comes out to seek revenge on his mother, then I will be the one who indirectly harmed her.
What I am doing is not only for my personal interests, but also for the reputation of the Long family and the Yun family. I don’t have to be the king, the crown prince, or even the prince, but I can’t just watch the Long family be in disgrace for thousands of years and be disgraced by the world.
Swearing. I can’t just watch Long Yi kill his mother. I really can’t do it..."
