Chapter 48 [Shocked by all parties]

The second prince watched the crown prince leave and gritted his teeth.

Then, she gently shook the strand of hair on her forehead and went back to the palace.

"Don't be too happy too soon, just wait and see!"

In the corridor, Xie Bian was waiting with a sword in his arms.

"Is it done?" Xie Bian asked rarely.

Although he was cold and taciturn, he still paid attention to such a major event as the crown prince being deposed.

After all, the crown prince was deposed, and the position of heir to the throne naturally became vacant.

In this way, it won’t be long before the Second Prince takes over the Eastern Palace.

As for him, the fastest swordsman in Kyoto, he will also become the best guard of the East Palace.

"No, I failed." The second prince was very angry when talking about this.

"Since it is foolproof, how can the prince break this deadly situation?"

At this moment, even the indifferent Xie Bian was greatly surprised.

Because he also believed that in this fatal situation, the prince would definitely die.

But now...

The news of what happened in the imperial study was immediately spread to all parties.

Guangxin Palace.

Li Yunrui sat in front of the dressing table, holding a wooden comb in her hand, looking at herself in the mirror. For a moment, she was a little dazed.

After returning from the East Palace, she has been sitting here, not wanting anyone to disturb her.

She knew very well that if the prince went there, he would have no chance of survival.

I'm afraid the position of the Eastern Palace will have to be replaced.

Rebellion has always been something that every emperor has zero tolerance for.

This is a deadly situation, there is no solution.

For a moment, an impulse flashed through her mind.

He went to the Imperial Study and pleaded for Li Chengqian, using the financial power of the inner treasury to buy him a chance of survival.

But in the end, reason prevailed over him.

Li Yunrui knew very well that even if she gave up the financial power of the inner treasury, the prince would surely die.

When it comes to Li Chengqian, she doesn't have very deep feelings for him.

More than that, it's a desire for possession and control.

But now, he was about to die, and Li Yunrui felt very upset.

For some reason, I felt a little blocked.

But it can't be explained clearly.

In fact, in just a short moment, she asked herself, is Li Chengqian important to her?

The answer is of course important.

In order to control him, she was willing to sacrifice her beauty and join the game.

It took many years of operation to win his heart.

However, five years ago, overnight, his heart drifted further and further away from her, completely out of her control.

For a person with a strong possessiveness and control desire, this is difficult to accept.

For five years, she has been causing trouble for Li Chengqian.

With the help of the Second Prince, he continued to deal with him secretly.

In fact, what Li Yunrui wanted was for him to come back and beg him.

At that time, she will still fully support him.

However, for five years, she has not been able to achieve her wish.

Naturally, the resentment in one's heart will gradually accumulate.

But now, he was about to die, about to die...

For some reason, Li Yunrui stood up and overturned the entire dressing table.

With a crackling sound, the cosmetics rolled all over the floor.

Li Yunrui gritted his teeth, his hair was messy, and he looked a little crazy.

She walked out of the house barefoot.

Finally went crazy.

She decided to rush to the imperial study and exchange the financial power of the inner treasury for a chance of survival for Li Chengqian.

Although he couldn't keep his position as the Crown Prince, at least he could save his life.

Li Yunrui felt that he must be crazy.

But she's gotten used to it.

She is a lunatic.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw my personal maid running towards me from a distance.

"Your Highness, news has come from the Imperial Study that the Crown Prince has left safely."

The maid was panting, and her small breasts kept rising and falling.

"what!!!"

Li Yunrui stopped suddenly.

The look on his face was one of disbelief and a hint of joy.

For some reason, she felt relieved.

The face becomes more radiant and gentler.

"Why didn't your majesty kill him?" Li Yunrui asked. The maid hesitated for a moment and then slowly told the story.

"That's it?" Li Yunrui was stunned.

This reason is too perfunctory. Will Your Majesty believe it?

"Are you sure you didn't make a mistake?" Li Yunrui asked again.

"That's right." The personal attendant confirmed.

Li Yunrui was silent.

Things took a turn for the better and it was no longer possible to mess with her.

That reason has no explanatory power at all.

But why did Emperor Qing believe it?
Logically speaking, at this time, no matter what the reason is, it is futile.

Once the prince enters the imperial study, he will never leave alive.

You can only stand in and lie down to get out.

but……

The development of things was too unexpected.

"This isn't right..." Li Yunrui thought about it carefully, but still felt that it was unlikely.

Your Majesty believed it with just a simple reason?
This is too much of a joke.

But this is the fact and we have to believe it.

"The second brother must look unhappy." Li Yunrui said.

The personal maid stood there with her body bowed, seeming to want to say something but stopping herself.

"What do you want to say?" Li Yunrui asked, seeing her hesitation.

"Your Highness, you are not developing feelings for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, are you?

Maybe not much, but definitely a little bit.”

The female official whispered, and then quickly lowered her head.

"Impossible!" Li Yunrui sneered.

She had lost the feeling a long time ago.

Now, she is just a person who holds the financial power in the inner treasury in this palace and knows how to weigh the pros and cons and think carefully.

emotion?

What a big joke!
The personal maid lowered her head and said nothing more.

When the second prince returned to his bedroom, his men had already prepared hot pot.

He has a habit of eating something before going to bed every night.

Only in this way can you sleep well.

But today, he had no interest at all. As soon as he entered the pavilion, he kicked over the hot pot and went back to his room to sleep.

"Your Highness, what is this?" Fan Wujiu was holding a book in his hand and looked at Xie Bian in confusion.

"The prince didn't die." Xie Bian said.

“……” Fan Wujiu was stunned for a moment and continued reading.

Xie Bian glanced at him, said nothing, and passed by.

Inspection Institute.

Under the candlelight, Zhuge was still busy with his official duties.

At this time, a man bowed and came hurriedly.

"Sir, news has come from the palace that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has left the Imperial Study safely."

"what!"

Zhuge stood up suddenly, his face full of surprise and disbelief.

In such a situation, he couldn't imagine how the prince managed to get out alive.

After hearing the reasons, I found it even more ridiculous.

"How can this be!"

Zhu Ge naturally didn't believe this reason.

Therefore, he couldn't understand why His Majesty believed it.

There is something strange about this matter!
In recent years, Zhuge has also been keeping an eye on the prince.

In his opinion, the Eastern Palace was too powerful, which was very disadvantageous to the Kingdom of Qing.

For this reason, he also went to see Chen Pingping, but Chen Pingping did not give a clear attitude and just asked him to do his job well.

He sent people to keep an eye on all the power the prince had in Kyoto.

The purpose is to prevent the prince from causing trouble.

just in case.

He even submitted a memorial to the emperor regarding the Crown Prince's affairs.

I hope Emperor Qing can take back the world's number one warehouse in the hands of the Crown Prince, transfer it to the inner treasury, and hand it over to the eldest princess Li Yunrui to manage.

In addition, he also hoped that the prince would hand over the rights to water transportation in the world.

The six generals of the Eastern Palace, with a total of 6,000 troops, should also be weakened.

Just keep one thousand.

However, after this memorial was submitted, it fell on deaf ears.

Emperor Qing did not adopt it.

In this fatal situation, Zhu Ge also felt that the prince would definitely die.

But the result...
