Before he met her, he had planned to start selecting an adopted son and training him when he turned thirty.
He had already defined the scope, which included his two younger brothers and several uncles and cousins who were very close to him by blood.
Although one of them was fourteen years old and the other only twelve, it would not be difficult for them to have children in five years.
Wei Hanzhang was praised by him and became more confident, so he said, "If something really happens to me, you will definitely not marry and have children again, so when choosing an heir, will you give priority to the children of your two younger brothers?"
Xiao Junzhan held her hand and nodded slightly.
In this way, Wei Hanzhang became more certain of his guess.
To be honest, if something really happened to her, the direct beneficiaries would be his two younger brothers.
Others may not know, but she knew that in the original novel, he finally abandoned the offspring of his two younger brothers and chose Wei Hansu's child as his heir.
...Why did this happen? Something must have happened to make him hate his two younger brothers.
The two princes are not law-abiding people.
They have the motivation.
Having said this, Wei Hanzhang stopped talking, and the man next to him also fell silent.
Chen Zishu stood in the hall with his body slightly hunched, waiting for instructions.
Xiao Junzhan closed his eyes slightly, thinking quietly for a long time, and then said: "Investigate Concubine Xian for me, mainly to check whether she and her mother's family have any disputes with the Xie family, the Zhang family, and the Liu family."
Concubine Xian is the biological mother of the two princes. She was born in the Mansion of Marquis Liu and is the highest-ranking concubine in the harem. The position of Queen has been vacant. In recent years, she has held the Phoenix Seal and exercised the power of the Queen. The inner court is under her control.
If she wanted to set an ambush in the paddock, she could really do it.
The Xie family of the Purple Marquis' Mansion, the Zhang family of the Great General's Mansion, and the Liu family of the Anguo Duke's Mansion were all generals who quelled the rebellion in Miaojiang, and they were also the people most likely to be able to produce the spiritual poison.
The Liu family is willing to take the blame, perhaps because they are not afraid of the itch when they have too many lice, or perhaps because they have a close relationship with the person behind the scenes.
This time we should check it thoroughly once and for all.
Xiao Junzhan said calmly, "I'll let Deng Chen cooperate with you, and you'll also be in charge of the Secret Guard Division. You can bring anyone in the Imperial City who you think is suspicious, whether they are from the royal family or the princes and concubines, for questioning. But you have three days to find out the mastermind behind this. Can you do it, my dear?"
Chen Zishu looked solemn and bowed solemnly: "I accept your order."
Xiao Junzhan nodded: "Then I will wait for your good news."
After Chen Zishu left the hall, Wei Hanzhang, who had been silent for a long time, gently tugged at the sleeve of the person next to him: "You also think it's not the eldest princess, right?"
"The truth will eventually be revealed." Xiao Junzhan glanced at her and whispered, "Whoever it is, they will have to pay the price."
Wei Hanzhang nodded without any surprise, fully believing that if it was really Concubine Xian and the two princes who did it, he would probably be capable of killing his own brother.
She was not so saintly as to persuade him to let go of the person who wanted to kill him. Instead, she asked another question: "You asked the people from the Secret Guard to keep an eye on Qi Mingrui, suspecting that his first wife was not dead. Was it because the death of the young master of the Qi family was so strange?"
Even if the eldest daughter of the Xie family was rescued by Qi Mingrui and was still alive somewhere, how could she reach out to the Duke of Qi's Mansion and harm the eldest princess's son?
Unless Qi Mingrui is involved, that is Qi Mingrui's own child.
How big of a grudge did he have to make him do that to his own child? Thanks to all my dear children for their support of my new book.
In addition, I only found the record of 500 book coins rewarded by Qidian book friend 'Shaou Piaopiao' yesterday.
