King Kang believed it, but Ye Peizhu had a hunch that Gu Yunsheng was not telling the truth. However, there were some things that did not need to be thoroughly investigated.
After saying these things, Gu Yunsheng left.
The next day, Prince Jing and Prince An arrived at Prince Kang's mansion one after another.
The news that Prince Duan was beheaded in the palace late at night by the Emperor had spread throughout the capital. After hearing about it, the two of them hurried to Prince Kang's mansion.
"Third brother, fifth brother, didn't you say last time that you had something important to discuss after Prince Duan's matter was over?
Prince Duan was beheaded last night, and this morning my father ordered that Prince Duan's family be exiled to a bitter and cold place. It's hard to say whether they can make it out alive.
Now that Prince Duan's affairs are concluded, are you ready to get down to business? "
Prince An asked.
The three brothers sat around the table in the main room, and Prince Kang drank tea with a complicated expression.
Prince Jing looked relaxed, while Prince An was full of curiosity.
The three of them were in different moods at this moment.
"The matter of Prince Duan is indeed over. Now let's get down to business."
King Kang put down his teacup and took a deep breath, "Seventh brother, to make a long story short, your fifth brother is a reincarnated person. He has memories of his previous life. In the previous life, all seven of us brothers died.
The culprit...is probably father. Your fifth brother doesn't want to fight for the throne in this life, and he wants to help me fight for that position.
Because I am the target set up by my father, there is no way he will let me go.
Of course, if Seventh Brother wants that position, your Fifth Brother and I can help you get it."
King Kang spoke out all the important things in one breath.
King An, who understood and reacted to King Kang's words, spat out a mouthful of tea.
"Puff—cough cough cough, what the hell? Fifth brother, fifth brother is a reborn person?!"
Prince An's face turned red from coughing, and he stared at Prince Jing with wide eyes.
King Jing raised an eyebrow, "Why? So surprised? Haven't you already seen someone who was reborn?"
Prince An was thinking of his niece, but he knew that she was a reborn person because he could hear her voice.
King Jing also knew that King Jing...
"Who is the other reborn person you are talking about?"
Prince An was cautious and did not say it directly.
King Jing glanced at him with a meaningful look, "You are smarter than I thought. We can all hear Jiuer's inner voice, so the person who is reborn is naturally Jiuer."
Prince An: “??!!”
"What do you mean? This king is very smart, okay?"
Prince An was not happy to hear such words from Prince Jing.
"So what do you think about what Third Brother said?"
King Jing started talking about business again.
Prince An took a sip of tea and said firmly, "Fifth Brother, since you are a reborn person, you should know that I have no interest in that position at all.
I am willing to work with my fifth brother to help my third brother take that position."
Prince An paused after he finished speaking, and suddenly exclaimed.
"Wait! Third brother, you just said that in our past life, all seven of us brothers died, and the culprit was probably father?! What did you mean by that?"
"Let me explain this sentence." King Jing took over.
"In my previous life, my father's target was my third brother. The more he doted on him, the more other princes who had ambitions for the throne wanted to target him.
In addition to the princes who had attacked my third brother, my father would also deliberately create some misunderstandings to sow discord between my third brother and other princes.
If the third brother wins in the calculation, then he can continue to stand as a target, waiting for the next person to shoot at him.
This is what my father did in my previous life. He kept sowing discord among everyone and plotting against them.
In the previous life, the third brother died before the two of us.
In the end, it was just you and me left. You should be able to guess what father did.
My father continued to sow discord between you and me, and in the end I killed you, and I became the only surviving prince.
I thought the throne was mine, but my father told me some truths and killed me.
The culprit is indeed the emperor, not just him.
If we don’t kill our father early in this life, I’m afraid we will still end up with the same ending as in our previous life…”
