Chapter 613 Even a tiger won’t eat its own cubs
Prince Gongxuan said, "Auntie Deng is timid and probably doesn't have the courage."
"Father," Shen Hanrui said, "You trust her too much. Back then, she was my mother's maidservant, and she took advantage of my mother's illness to climb into your bed."
"The last time the Grand Empress Dowager came to our house, the servants saw with their own eyes that she asked my second brother to go and pay his respects to the Grand Empress Dowager."
"After the Empress Dowager asked my second brother to leave, the servants saw Aunt Deng and my second brother angry, and vaguely heard her say that my second brother was not doing his best."
"I guess she just wants Second Brother to please the Empress Dowager, but none of us gave Second Brother face last time."
"Mrs. Deng is so scheming, ambitious, and ungrateful, how could she not have the guts?"
"Hanrui!" Prince Gongxuan frowned and said, "How can a girl like you say such things?"
Princess Gongxuan was anxious, "Your Highness, she is still a child. Don't take her seriously. She is doing this for her mother."
Shen Hanrui was yelled at, and said aggrievedly: "I am telling the truth. If Aunt Deng was a good person, why would she climb into the bed? It was because of her that my mother was sad for a long time."
Seeing his daughter about to cry, Prince Gongxuan sighed and said, "I just feel that she is a woman without any support from her family. Now she relies entirely on the palace and her son. She probably doesn't have the ability to do such a bold thing. If something goes wrong, she will be doomed."
Shen Hanrui continued, "Father, there are many things that Mother has not told you. Before Aunt Deng gave birth to a son, when my eldest brother was still at home, she was always respectful to Mother."
"But ever since she gave birth to a son and my eldest brother passed away, she has lost her former respect for my mother. Sometimes, she even takes advantage of the fact that she has a son who is the only bloodline of the royal family and disrespects my mother."
"You probably don't know this yet, but Aunt Deng's expenses for food, clothing, and other expenses are almost as high as mine."
"If she's not satisfied with anything sent to her every month, she'll come to my house and cry to me."
"Those things were originally given to me based on my status as a concubine. Even if I took them outside, no one would find fault with them."
"In order to prevent her from bothering you, my mother, who is kind-hearted, always gave her a lot of good things on her own."
Prince Gongxuan frowned: "She is so ignorant!"
Chen Tangyu said sternly, "Father, we know a person's face but not his heart. We should be suspicious of everyone and everything."
"If Big Brother is really still alive, and it really is Song Hexiu, then the mastermind behind this is extremely evil."
"And father, you forgot the most important point. If eldest brother dies, second brother will be your only son. Even if you know he killed eldest brother, what can you do to him? Can you really kill him and end up without any descendants?"
King Gongxuan was stunned.
Indeed, if he only had one blood-related son, Chen Tangqi, even if he made a huge mistake, even a tiger would not eat its own cubs, so he would not take his life.
Chen Tangyu continued, "Father, when you were investigating, you should have seen Song Hexiu's experience. If he is really our eldest brother, then he suffered so much before, and now he has a son who was sold and disappeared. That's too pitiful."
"A prince of a royal family is being bullied so badly by the Song family. Don't you feel heartbroken?"
