Chapter 355 The Princess who refused to marry 24
Xining was lying down recovering from his injuries, not to mention that the house made of stone was quite nice. As long as you don't run out and torture yourself, you generally won't feel the heat wave outside.
Mo Ming: "Do you want to know who did it?"
Xining: "If you fart, hurry up and don't ask for any conditions!"
Mo Ming: "Humph, it seems you haven't learned your lesson yet."
Xining: "Look~, I'm very good. Can Mo Ming tell me?"
Mo Ming...
Yes, with Pharaoh personally giving the order, we will immediately investigate what happened.
After a while, Pharaoh came. As soon as he came in, Xining felt the heat on his body.
Du Ya quickly asked someone to bring a handkerchief soaked in perfume. They also served fruits that had been soaked in well water for a long time.
After Pharaoh ate a dozen figs in one breath, he picked up the grapes, leaned on the soft pillow, and ate them one by one: "My dear daughter, the investigation is almost done."
Someone had tampered with the reins and inserted nails into the reins, with the sharp parts facing the horse's skin. The more the reins were pulled, the more the horse ran in pain.
"Who did this?" Xining asked with a half-smile.
Nakhat put another grape into his mouth: "A slave in the stable committed suicide out of fear of crime. He did it."
Xining immediately said: "Du Ya, bring over the fruit plate in front of my father."
Seeing Du Yalai carrying the plate, Nakhat immediately understood what was happening and protected the plate with both hands: "I haven't eaten enough yet."
Xi Ningpi said with a smile: "Eat more and be careful if your stomach hurts. Bring it here."
Nakhat quickly protected the plate and said: "This must be framed by someone. I will continue to ask people to investigate."
Xining raised his hand, and Duya put down the plate and slowly stepped back.
"Father, that's right. What should be investigated should be investigated clearly. As for how to judge, it is your business. But you can't fool me like a fool, otherwise others will think you are a fool too, and they won't accept your kindness. "Xining smiled and asked: "Go and cut up the melon that was put into the well this morning."
"Is there any more melon?" Nakhat quickly picked up a handkerchief and wiped his mouth, waiting to eat the melon. After thinking about it, I felt a little dissatisfied: "Why didn't you give it to me just now?"
"Prevent my father from eating too much too fast and causing a stomachache."
When the little princess said this, Nakhat felt relieved. No, no matter what, whatever the little princess says is fine.
After biting half of the melon, Nakhat wiped his mouth and hands with a towel with satisfaction: "Why is the well water here so cold?"
There are also wells in his bedroom and other bedrooms, but after soaking the melons and fruits in them, there is no ice here.
Because the well here is deeper than usual, when it is coldest in the middle of the night, the melons and fruits are soaked, even to the bottom of the well. When you eat it, your heart will naturally feel cool. Xining smiled and said: "Yes, the well water here is cool. Father, you can come in more in the future!"
Nakhat pointed: "Just keep it a secret. Sooner or later I will know how to do it."
Xining smiled and did not answer. Then he sighed slightly: "Actually, it doesn't matter if we don't investigate this matter. Many things are obvious. Forget it, father, there is no need to investigate anymore, just treat everything as a thing of the past."
Nakhat also had doubts. When he mentioned it at this time, he couldn't help but straighten his back: "Daughter, are you listening to other people's nonsense? In fact..."
"Okay, father!" Xining smiled with a smile: "Whenever you find the mastermind, you just need to see who gets the most benefits. I'm going to the racecourse, and someone got confused when they found out. To be able to do such a thing The one who came must have some power. His Royal Highness's mother-in-law would not do this, even if she did not know that the prince would go, but the prince has been canonized, and there is no need to deal with the second brother's mother-in-law. , in order to kill me, what is the benefit of letting your son be buried with you?”
Xining picked up a bunch of grapes and said while eating them in a leisurely manner: "The third brother has no concubine at all, and there is no need for the fourth brother's concubine to kill the second brother and affect her father's love for her. Then... There is only one person left.”
The eldest princess doesn't have this brain, only the queen.
No matter which prince dies, there will be less competition for the throne. The prince's position is even more stable!
It was an accident that the prince went there, and it didn't matter even if the prince died. The eldest princess's bloodline is there. If one prince dies, another one will be established. Moreover, the remaining princes are younger than the prince and are easier to handle.
Xining looked at Nakhat with contempt: "My father actually knew it, so he didn't pursue it further. It's very simple to investigate. First, find out whether the dead slave committed suicide or was murdered, and then find out who he had been in contact with on a daily basis. Check it out, but you can’t believe there are no clues. Now, let’s just talk about it. You don’t have to worry about telling me. Let the slave who committed suicide bear the blame.”
Nakhat was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed sheepishly, gently scratching the smooth and bulging back of his head with his fingers.
Thinking about it again, that’s not right. My little daughter is so smart and she tells him everything she thinks.
Facing her little daughter, she couldn't help but have a look of surprise in her eyes. After coming here for a long time, he whispered in a consultative tone: "Daughter, honey, Amenhotep is getting married next month, and the position of the crown prince and concubine is still vacant. How about you..." All you need to do is issue a decree. Very easy.
Xining rolled his eyes and thought he was going to say something. After doing it for a long time, he still planned to trick the girl without limit. Pharaoh, your little daughter is only 8 years old, 8 years old!
Nakhat was confused: "Why don't you want to marry Amenhotep? He will inherit the throne and become pharaoh in the future. Do you want to marry someone else..."
It suddenly dawned on me, but then I was embarrassed: "This may not work. If you are just an ordinary princess, there is no problem in marrying other princes..."
If the princess is not crooked, don't expect to marry anyone other than the prince. Unless you are like the second princess, and if you are not a direct descendant and there are many princesses, it is possible to marry a minister.
But here, it is a monogamous system. Except for the pharaoh who can have a princess, everyone else can only raise female slaves or not be given a title. No matter how good the children of a concubine are, they will inherit the family property and title as legitimate children.
The second princess will get married half a month after the prince's wedding. It is said that the minister's son has been so happy that he "cryed with joy" and fainted in the arms of the dancers in the wine shop several times.
"Father!" Xining smiled bitterly: "Are you really planning to make your eldest sister the crown prince's concubine?"
Nakhat glared, his eyes covered with thick eyeliner, looking very majestic: "What else? Now she has actually reached out to you, and she cannot be allowed to be the main concubine."
Even if you become a concubine, you will be deposed. The first rule of deposing a wife is to be barren. You can't let the husband have no legitimate children. Until the death of the owner, Isenofre was never pregnant with a child. The eldest brother also used this to abolish her position as queen and establish her as the queen.
In order to secure the crown prince's position, Xi Ning persuaded Nakhat for a long time, and finally got Nakhat to agree that the eldest princess should be the crown prince's main concubine, but it was not something that could be given casually...
