Chapter 2722 Erchen Wants to Have Something of His Own
"Er Chen understands in his heart, but... Er Chen always feels helpless. It's like he is being forced and pushed away by them."
"You are a prince, who dares to force you to do anything?" Zhao Yuanjing glanced at him, "Xiao Er, your mother has always felt that you are still a very young child and should stay in the harem like the two princesses. Apart from studying, do nothing else. Don't worry about anything. But do you know that I was poisoned when I was younger than you. At that time, I didn't have the protection of my mother, and my father didn't care much. You can't raise brave wild wolves in a greenhouse. of."
The waiter lowered his head: "I...I don't understand. But they all said that my father wanted to cultivate competitors for the emperor brother and let the emperor grow up faster, so he allowed Mr. Xu Ge and the others to get close to his son. "
"Do you think so too?"
"No." The waiter shook his head, "Although the father, the emperor, and the queen love the emperor's brother, they also dote on their children. The emperor's brother is very good to his children, and the children will never do anything to harm the emperor's brother."
"Xiao Er, most human nature is innate. If you were ambitious when you were ten years old, your ambition will not disappear even if it takes ten or twenty years."
"Father, son, minister... will not fight with the emperor's brother."
"You don't want to compete with the prince, that's why you want Northern Qi, right?"
"My son..."
"Tell the truth!" Zhao Yuanjing's voice was a bit harsh.
The waiter trembled, was silent for a moment, raised his head resolutely, and said: "Er Chen indeed thinks so. He is also the son of his father, the emperor, and his mother, and is the legitimate prince of Zhou Dynasty. I don't want to be like the King of Qin back then. Er Chen I want to have something of my own. But I don’t want to compete with my brother.”
He slowly lowered his head again.
Zhao Yuanjing smiled when he saw him like this: "Who is born without ambition? Besides, you are a prince. It's not a bad thing if you can say it calmly."
"Now my uncle has his eldest son. The sons and ministers are not willing to hurt my uncle and the others, so that's it for Northern Qi. It's just those disciples and old friends of Mr. Xu Ge..."
"As far as I know, the newly born eldest son of the Northern Qi King does not have any Xiao family mark on his hand."
"Really?" The waiter looked up.
"It's not a question of deep or shallow, but not at all." Zhao Yuanjing said, "Your mother is the princess of Northern Qi, and you inherited your mother's blood. You should know that Northern Qi values the Xiao family's red leaf mark. Okay. Said, if there is no red leaf mark, it will not be recognized by the Xiao family."
The waiter wondered: "Why is this happening? Could it be that the child is not my uncle's?"
"There is no difference between yes and no." Zhao Yuanjing looked at Zhezi again and said calmly, "You just need to know that Beiqi will not admit people without bloodline marks to succeed Beiqi."
The waiter glanced at his wrist.
His mark was almost identical to his mother's.
This is why everyone initially agreed that he was the future King of Northern Qi.
Now Xiao Ziliang has a son, but there is no mark. If this news is released, what will Beiqi think?
The waiter looked slightly condensed.
In fact, there is no need for him to think about this kind of thing, or even do it.
In less than three days, the news spread that the eldest son of the Northern Qi King did not have the Xiao family's red leaf mark.
There was an uproar in an instant, and the forces in the court who had given up hope immediately took the opportunity to build momentum, and even spread rumors that the child was not Xiao Ziliang's flesh and blood at all.
