The next day happened to be a day off.
King Kang got up with dark circles under his eyes, washed himself, and then personally washed his daughter who had just woken up.
It was a rare day off, and he wanted to spend more time with his daughter to cultivate their father-daughter relationship.
But he was still thinking about what he had said to his wife last night. He took a handkerchief and wiped his daughter's face. He wiped her cheeks for a long time.
"What's wrong with my dad? Is he still asleep? I'd better wash my face myself."
Grandma Song Jiujiu sighed, stretched out her chubby little hands, grabbed the handkerchief from her father's hand, and wiped her face with the handkerchief.
King Kang came to his senses and rubbed his daughter's hair embarrassedly.
"Jiu'er has really grown up and can wash her face by herself."
Song Jiujiu gave her father a speechless look.
Song Jiujiu discovered today that not only her father, but her mother also looked a little dazed.
It was obvious that something had happened between the two of them.
[What on earth happened? Why do my parents have the same expression?
You still have dark circles under your eyes. Did you not sleep well last night? 】
Song Jiujiu puffed out her cheeks and looked at her father and then at her mother.
"Prince, Princess, Prince Jing is here."
Qiuyun came in to report.
When they heard the three words "Prince Jing", Ye Peizhu and Prince Kang looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes.
Why did King Jing suddenly come so early in the morning?
"Let him come over."
Prince Kang had no reason not to meet Prince Jing, even though he had just learned yesterday that Prince Jing and Prince Duan were colluding to plot against him.
Qiuyun agreed and was about to leave, but Ye Peizhu stopped her.
"Qiu Yun, have someone else go to the door and invite Prince Jing to come to the main hall, and you stay here to look after Jiu Er."
"yes."
Song Jiujiu: "??"
[Are you going to abandon me again, Mother? What is it about King Jing that I can't obey?]
"Mother, go! Jiuer, go!"
Fat little Song Jiujiu held his mother's legs with his hands and tried to speak in a baby voice.
"Jiu'er, be good. The adults need to talk about serious matters, and the children can just play on the side."
Ye Peizhu touched her daughter's fluffy hair soothingly, picked her up and put her on the blanket again.
The couple went to the main room next door and waited for King Jing to come.
Before King Jing came, King Kang asked his wife in a low voice.
"Madam, why don't you bring Jiuer here? Maybe what King Jing said can make Jiuer say something in her heart, and we can also know more about the past life."
Ye Peizhu pursed her lips, her pretty face tinged with worry, "Your Highness, I have a hunch that I can't let Jiuer hear what Prince Jing said.
I don't know why I have this intuition, but I still do it to feel more at ease."
Prince Kang nodded. "Madam's intuition is always accurate. So be it."
Not long after the couple finished talking, King Jing walked over the threshold.
King Jing was still dressed in white, his temperament seemed to be detached from this world, and he looked indifferent to everything.
If Prince Kang and Ye Peizhu had not just learned yesterday about Prince Jing's involvement in the conspiracy, they would probably have been stunned by Prince Jing's behavior.
"Fifth brother, why are you here alone today? I thought you would come with your family."
King Kang wore a polite but distant smile on his face.
King Jing sat down with his back straight, his expression calm and a faint smile on his face.
"Brother Wang, I'm here today to discuss serious matters, so I can't bring my family with me."
Prince Kang raised his eyebrows slightly. "Oh? Fifth brother, your words have piqued my curiosity. I wonder what the serious matter is that you want to talk about?"
"Of course, what I want to talk about is what's been circulating in the capital recently.
Brother Wang and Sister Wang should have heard about this matter from the secret guards you sent out to investigate, right?
Did the secret guards find out that the rumors circulating in the capital were the work of my younger brother and Prince Duan?
Or is it a collaboration between my younger brother and Prince Duan?"
King Jing said this directly, catching King Kang and Ye Peizhu off guard.
Prince Jing curled his lips and smiled, "The expressions of my brother and sister-in-law let me know that my guess was correct. Are they thinking about how to deal with me and Prince Duan because of the news from the secret guards?
My younger brother knew about this, so he came here early this morning just to explain the matter to his brother and sister-in-law.
To avoid unnecessary misunderstandings and casualties. After all, brothers turning against each other is not what the younger brother wants to see."
King Jing's words contained a lot of information, and King Kang and Ye Peizhu both tried to calm their thoughts.
"From what Fifth Brother said, it seems that what my secret guard investigated was wrong?
Or did someone deliberately let my secret guards investigate this matter?"
Prince Jing nodded slightly, speaking meaningfully, "Third brother is indeed smart. The recent rumors in the capital were actually spread by Prince Duan alone, but that person insisted on dragging me into it.
I think my brother and sister-in-law can guess what the man's intention is. He wants my brother and sister-in-law, my younger brother and Prince Duan to plot against each other.
"Do you know who that person is?"
Without waiting for the Kang King and his wife to reply, the Jing King chuckled, "My brother and his wife must have guessed it, but they are not sure.
After all, what that person showed in front of the world was that he doted on his brothers, sisters-in-law and nephews.
Whoever is favored wouldn’t believe it.”
King Jing's words were already very clear, except for naming names.
Ye Peizhu knew who King Jing was talking about, but she was surprised why King Jing suddenly came to tell them this.
It was as if Prince Jing really didn't want to be an enemy of Prince Kang's Mansion, so he came to explain.
But does King Jing really not want that position?
In Jiuer's mind, Prince Jing had plotted against their Prince Kang's Mansion in order to fight for the throne in his previous life.
How is it possible that King Jing has never had that thought in this life?
Or is it that King Jing is also hiding?
Ye Peizhu became alert.
King Kang had similar ideas to Ye Peizhu.
He pursed his lips and stared at King Jing, "Fifth brother, what exactly do you want to say? Just say it directly."
But King Jing did not continue what he had just said.
He picked up the teacup and took a sip. "Brother and sister-in-law, do you believe in an afterlife? Or that people can be reborn with the memories of their past lives?"
King Jing's words stirred up a thousand waves in the hearts of King Kang and Ye Peizhu.
Their first reaction was whether King Jing knew their Jiuer's secret.
"Brother and sister-in-law, judging from your expressions, you should believe it.
I also believe it, because I, like my niece Jiuer, am a reborn person."
Prince Jing chuckled, and his casual words made Prince Kang and Ye Peizhu feel like their hearts had stopped for a moment.
The main room fell into an eerie silence.
King Jing continued to drink his tea calmly, waiting for King Kang and Ye Peizhu to recover from this huge shock.
After a while, King Kang spoke.
"Fifth brother, are you joking?"
