First, this is the Royal Imperial Garden. In addition to the various beautiful flowers, the natural scenery is pleasant, but Chen Kaizhi has no intention of enjoying the beautiful scenery in the Imperial Garden, thinking about the meaning of the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager deliberately sent Empress Dowager Mu and the woman, and there must be something special to tell him, so he quietly looked at the Empress Dowager with his own eyes with doubts.

The Empress Dowager's face was calm, her eyes were gently turning, browsing the beautiful scenery far and near.

Not far away, there was a long pavilion. The Empress Dowager pointed at the lightly and smiled.

"Go there and sit."

Chen Kaizhi nodded, and he looked back quietly. Seeing the old eunuch following him from afar and did not dare to get close, he helped the Empress Dowager to the pavilion.

At this time, there was no one in the pavilion and it was very empty. Except for the occasional sound of birds, it was very quiet.

The pavilion is very spacious, with a round stone table in the middle, and several small stone stools surrounding the round table.

The Empress Dowager entered the pavilion and sat down on the stone bench. The sun shone in the pavilion with a slanted light. The bright light covered the Empress Dowager's face. A very well-maintained face was almost transparent and it was hard to see.

Chen Kaizhi couldn't see the expression of the Empress Dowager clearly, so he could only wait aside and wait for her to speak. While thinking, the Empress Dowager pointed to the small stone bench beside him.

"You sit down too."

Chen Kaizhi just bowed and sat down.

The Empress Dowager sat dignifiedly, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she did not care about the beautiful scenery around her. Instead, she looked at Chen Kaizhi very seriously. A face covered by light flashed through a hint of sadness. The next moment, her elbows were supported on the round table, her head was tilted in her hands, her eyes wandered, and her whole person seemed to be in deep thought, and she sighed deeply unconsciously.

"The Ai family entered the palace at the age of fourteen. That was more than 40 years ago. The past is like smoke."

Chen Kaizhi didn't expect that the Empress Dowager would suddenly say this, and he was a little surprised.

However, Chen Kaizhi couldn't understand this feeling when the Empress Dowager's words, but he nodded and said, "Now people don't see the moon in ancient times, but this moon once shines on the ancients?"

The Empress Dowager was stunned and chewing on this sentence, she was so crazy, and a light flashed in her eyes.

"Yes, that's right. The last time Li Ai's family left this place, it was considered to be a 15-year-old family. In the past fifteen years, things have changed. Many 'ancient people' have been here for every tree and grass here, but most of them have disappeared. People have good fortune and good fortune at any time. Fifteen years ago..."

She said, putting her hands in front of her abdomen, raising her eyes slightly, her eyes seemingly becoming distant, and then said, "Do you know why the Ai family left here fifteen years ago?"

Chen Kaizhi always felt strange about this issue.

At that time, the Empress Dowager not only had a noble status, but also had a high status in the hearts of court officials. However, he suddenly left the imperial center and ran to Guanzhong. It took more than ten years to go there. In Chen Kaizhi's opinion, this should be the biggest mystery in the Empress Dowager.

Looking at Chen Kaiyi's face in confusion, the Empress Dowager sighed, her eyes were slightly red and her voice was slightly trembling.

"At that time, there was a grandson of the Ai family. He was the eldest grandson of the Ai family. The Ai family still remembers that when they heard his crying, the Ai family's heart was broken. At that time, the Ai family thought that they would be blessed in this life. They had a few sons, and now they had another grandson. In the future, the Ai family must raise this eldest grandson and raise it by their side. The Ai family is preparing to wait for him to grow older and tell him many stories, but... I think you know that the prince is missing."

Chen Kaizhi was stunned at first, and never expected that the Empress Dowager would tell him this, but he nodded immediately and said, "I have heard of some, it is said that it was the actions of the remnants of the sons."

"Ha... it's not that simple." The Empress Dowager was cold and no longer saw her usual cihe appearance. Her eyes were so deep that she couldn't see her, but she said lightly: "What are the benefits of the remnants of the sects doing this?"

Chen Kaizhi nodded again, but at this time, he knew that he could not continue talking, because what was involved next must be the biggest secret in the palace.

As a minister, even if it is a royal family, it is better to have some taboos in some matters.

Yes, since the remnants of the sects will not have any benefits, does that mean that there is another person? But who will be? This is almost imaginable. Who gets the greatest benefit in this process?

Of course it is King Zhao, and his son who has now become the emperor.

But King Zhao was the son of the Empress Dowager after all, and the young emperor was the legitimate grandson of the Empress Dowager. At present, except for King Zhao and his son, the former emperor had already lost his heirs. It was no longer important whether the person behind him was King Zhao or not, because the Empress Dowager would never avenge the eldest grandson.

Seeing that Chen Kaizhi was silent, the Empress Dowager couldn't help but glance at Chen Kaizhi's eyes, and the corner of her mouth twitched slightly, and she actually sneered.

"At this time, you must be thinking that this person must be King Zhao, right?"

Chen Kaizhi was surprised. He did not nod or shook his head.

Not nodding is a taboo.

Instead of shaking your head, it is because you don’t want to open your eyes and talk nonsense.

"You are wrong." The Empress Dowager put away the sneer at the corner of her mouth and said lightly.

Chen Kaizhi was surprised and was wrong. This is strange. If it weren't for King Zhao, who else could there be? Who else in the Great Chen Dynasty could take away the emperor's son?

When the Empress Dowager saw Chen Kaizhi's surprise, she couldn't help but narrow her eyes, looked at the colorful flowers in the distance, and said with a sneer.

"Will the Ai family know about his own son? King Zhao seems to be quite cunning, meticulous in his actions, and is ruthless in his work. He is not a despised by the Ai family. He is just a person who is always good at planning. Such a person can usually live in luxury and win people's hearts, and can be called a master of success."

As she said that, her voice became particularly firm, and her face shrouded in the sun became more and more difficult to see.

"But he won't do such a thing, not because he doesn't want to, but because he doesn't dare!"

The word "Don't dare" is really analyzing Chen Zhijing thoroughly.

Chen Kaizhi couldn't help but think that the Empress Dowager's words were nothing wrong. Then King Zhao thought he was ambitious, but did he have the courage?

From his personality, Chen Kaizhi felt that this person was at most a noble ruler, but he could not be a hero, and he might not even be a hero.

Thinking of this, Chen Kai was shocked. Could it be that there are other more powerful people in this big Chen?

In a frightened state, he couldn't help but ask subconsciously: "So, who is this person?"

"I don't know." The Empress Dowager retracted her gaze and looked at Chen Kaizhi with a smile.

Well……

It's a bit embarrassing. You don't know, but you still come to tell me this?

However, Chen Kaizhi felt vaguely that the Empress Dowager must have known something, but... she was not convenient for her to say it.

"So the Ai family is thinking that someone must have instigated King Zhao behind the scenes. This person is crucial, but... Is this person really just to make King Zhao's son ascend the throne? No, it shouldn't be. The person behind him will not make wedding dresses for others. The Ai family doesn't believe that he has tried his best to arrange such a major deficit, risking being cut into pieces, just to make King Zhao profit."

The Empress Dowager's eyes narrowed deeply again, and the eyes in her eyes became colder.

"So... the Ai family guessed back then that this person must have had a bad intention and that he must have a deeper plan. King Zhao, the incompetent son of the Ai family, was just tempted by him and became his pawn."

Chen Kaizhi nodded thoughtfully.

The Empress Dowager said again: "So, what can you guess?"

Chen Kaizhi suddenly realized, and then he suddenly remembered something: "Crown Prince, he must still be alive!"

"Not bad!" The Empress Dowager said seriously: "It must be alive, because since this person has already made plans, and it is definitely not just for the sake of King Zhao. He has deeper plans, so he will definitely keep the prince in his hand. The Ai family quarreled with the previous emperor and left in anger. He ran to Ganquan Palace for this reason. In Luoyang Palace, it was too annoying to plan and plan. Guanzhong is the Ai family's mother's home, which is also quiet. The Ai family has enough time and energy to deal with this person, or to find the prince back."

Chen Kaizhi was shocked. He didn't expect that the Empress Dowager had endured for so many years for this.

But after thinking about it carefully, I felt afraid. What she wanted to find was the prince named Wuji. This must be correct. But what I saw in the Tianren Pavilion was that Wuji was not the real prince, but a person with a birthmark on his thigh, and this person...

The more Chen Kaizhi thought about it, the more complicated he felt. He suddenly felt that he didn't understand the adult world and wanted to go back to kindergarten.

Then, new questions have emerged, why should the Empress Dowager tell him these?

What does she mean?

Could it be that he wants to help find the whereabouts of the prince?

Chen Kaizhi couldn't help but raise his eyes and looked at the Empress Dowager suspiciously.

The Empress Dowager stood up. Chen Kaizhi was about to get up to support him, but she shook her head slightly at him and said with a faint smile.

"You must be wondering why the Ai family said these things to you. Now you must be full of doubts. Don't worry, the Ai family will not harm you. The Ai family talks to you. You just think that this is talking to you and relieving you. One day, you will understand the profound meaning of the Ai family today."

She looked into the distance, sighed deeply in her heart, and finally put her hand on Chen Kaizhi's shoulder.

Chen Kaizhi looked at the Empress Dowager who was beautiful but well-maintained, and was a little confused for a moment. Then he thought, "What if he doesn't harm me, it's enough."
