Chapter 142 Mantis Catching Cicadas
In the night, Fu An anxiously looked at the second prince Fu Yao beside him.

"Your Highness, why don't we go rescue him? Concubine Qi has been taken away!"

Fu Yao's expression flickered, "What's the hurry, after Fu Yan kills the emperor father, I will go to save you. Doesn't the throne belong to the palace?"

Hearing this, Fu An's eyes lit up, and then dimmed again, "But there is still His Royal Highness, no matter what, the emperor has not abolished the prince, and the prince is a legitimate heir."

"The prince is also dead."

The smile on the corners of Fu Yao's lips spread, he tilted his head and looked at Fu An, "The third brother can kill the king, and killing the prince is also a normal thing."

But the Third Prince never sent anyone to the Prince's Mansion
Fu An opened his mouth, looked into His Royal Highness's eyes, and suddenly understood that the prince was indeed going to die tonight, but it didn't matter who killed him, it would all fall back to the third prince.

Fu'an was already trembling when he sensed what His Royal Highness was thinking. In terms of strategy, His Highness was better.

"The Empress of Qi Concubine"

"Those who achieve great things don't care about small things. The mother concubine understands this truth. Perhaps this palace should also thank Fu Yan."

Fu Yao's sharp eyes like a falcon were particularly sharp in the night.

"The reason why this hall can't even compete for the throne is because of humble backgrounds, because the mother and concubine of this hall are merchant girls."

"She is dead, and this hall is recorded under the name of the queen, so she is a legitimate son. Who has anything to say?"

Fu Yao, who was hiding in the dark, had no weakness, so he waited leisurely for his prey to catch him.

But at this moment, Fu Yan in the palace was a bit uncomfortable. He had cut off three fingers of Emperor Qi And, and Fu Yao, who was hiding in the dark, hadn't appeared yet. Could it be that he was really waiting for him to kill Emperor Qi And?
Emperor Qi'an's face was already frighteningly pale at this time, and he looked at Wang Huan who was kneeling beside him, he wanted to know when the rescuers would arrive!

He really couldn't stand it any longer.

At this time, the Prince's Mansion was full of flames, and Fu Qichen took the Crown Princess and the eldest grandson Fu Changrui to hide in the secret passage of the study under the protection of the hidden guards.

The three of them walked all the way to the end of the secret passage, knocked on the stone wall three times, and then the stone wall was opened from the outside with a 'crash', revealing the faces of Fu Yu and Lin Yu.

After the crown prince Fu Qichen settled the crown princess and his son Fu Changrui, he looked at Fu Yu with lingering fear.

"Shut up, you are really resourceful and resourceful. Fortunately, I listened to you at the beginning, and someone dug a secret path, otherwise Gu, the princess and Chang Rui would have died at the hands of the third child this time."

Lin Yu poured tea for the princess and Fu Changrui, and arranged for Qixi and Hua Ning to prepare the room. Hearing what the prince said, he couldn't help but turn his head.

"The people in the Prince's Mansion were not sent by the Third Prince."

Fu Qichen paused, "What? Who else would there be if it wasn't him, and he is still bringing the imperial army to force the palace."

Speaking of this matter, Fu Qichen was a little nervous, "I don't know if An Yuan and Bingmasi's people went to the palace and rescued the father!"

Fu Yu handed tea to the prince, "The third prince will not kill the emperor, as for the people in your prince's mansion, they should be sent by the second prince."

Fu Qichen held the teacup, and the warm touch made his hands feel a little warm.

"You said it's the second child? It's not possible, but how can you be sure?"

"Du Yu, bring people here."

Fu Yu gave an order, and the outside of the study was opened from the outside after a while, and Du Yu walked in with a woman with her hands tied behind her back.

The princess saw the woman's face clearly, stood up and couldn't help but lose her voice, "Xueyan?"

Zheng Xueyan's eyes were a little red, and then she looked at the prince and princess, and knelt down on the ground with a 'putong'.

"His Royal Highness, Crown Princess, it is indeed wrong for His Royal Highness to rebel, but he did so because he was desperate."

"As for the person sent to assassinate His Royal Highness, it will definitely not be my Royal Highness."

"When he sent the concubine away, he specifically told him that if the concubine could not survive outside, he must seek help from His Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess."

"My Highness actually trusts His Highness the Crown Prince, and he will definitely not kill you."

Saying this, Zheng Xueyan took two steps forward, protecting her stomach, "My Highness will do everything for the child, and the crown prince and princess also have grandchildren, so I should be able to understand my Highness's feelings. He doesn't want the child to be born forever Live in the clan mansion."

The Crown Prince Fu Qichen and the Crown Princess are both soft-hearted people, especially the Crown Princess, who is even more soft-hearted when she becomes a mother.

What's more, she has been with Zheng Xueyan's sister-in-law for so many years, and she also knows what kind of person she is.

"Parents love their children, and they have far-reaching plans. Xueyan, you need to get up first before talking."

Zheng Xueyan hurriedly wiped away her tears, shook her head and did not get up, "I know that His Royal Highness has committed an unforgivable crime this time, and I am willing to go with His Highness as a concubine, but my flesh and blood are innocent, so please take pity on the Crown Prince and Princess Princess."

"After the child is born, I want to ask the Crown Princess to help raise it, or find a good family to send the child away. As long as he grows up safely, I will beg the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess!"

This time the Crown Princess didn't speak, it was related to national affairs, especially the rebellion of the third prince, this child can't live casually.

Crown Prince Fu Qichen also frowned, and it took a long while before he said: "You are only four months pregnant now, there is no rush for the child, and it will not be too late to discuss after today's incident."

The most urgent thing now is Fu Yan and Fu Yao. One kills the king and seizes the throne, and the other hides behind and watches coldly. No matter how you look at it, there is no good person.

Thinking of this, Fu Qichen asked Fu Yu, "Speak less, what do you think should be done?"

Fu Yu tapped the table with his fingers, "Ayu and I mean to wait!"

"His Royal Highness, I know that today's words are a bit treasonous, but now the emperor is incompetent, and he asks the immortal to ask. It's just a month's work, and it has already consumed a lot of money from the treasury."

"There was suspicion in the beginning, but now that the matter of the third prince is over, the emperor will definitely get worse, and His Royal Highness will be in a more difficult situation then."

As Fu Yu said, he pulled Lin Yu and the two of them to kneel down, "So I ask His Royal Highness to watch the fire from the other side and reap the benefits of being a fisherman."

"Are you asking Gu not to care about the life and death of the father?"

Fu Qichen's chest fluctuated a little, "Do you know what you are talking about?"

"Gu acts like this, what's the difference between the third and the second!"

Fu Yu sighed, "Of course it's different. The Second Highness and the Third Highness are for selfish purposes, and His Highness the Crown Prince is for the sake of the people's livelihood."

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, do you know that Princess Beiqi has seized the city defense map and left the capital today, and she will surely make a comeback in the future and send troops against us, Great Wei?"

Lin Yu's voice was even more solemn and firm, "If His Royal Highness allows the emperor to squander the state treasury wantonly and kill loyal soldiers."

"Who will protect my great Wei rivers and mountains at that time, and who will guard my thousands of people in Great Wei?"

A sentence of rhetorical questions struck Prince Fu Qichen's heart, causing him to fall into deep hesitation.

"His Royal Highness, you are not only His Majesty's son, but also the crown prince of a country, and you shoulder the burden of the people of Liming."

Fu Qichen raised his hand, and then lowered it weakly. He looked at Fu Yu with a wry smile.

"You already thought of this when you made Gu Cheng sick?"

"You took Gu out of this battle for succession, and allowed Gu to ascend to the throne without a trace of stain on his body."

Fu Yu lowered his head, "I didn't force the Third Highness to rebel, nor wronged the Second Highness to watch the fire from the other side. This is their own choice."

Hearing this, Fu Qichen couldn't help turning his head to look at Lin Yu, "Shaoyan really has a delicate heart, and younger siblings should be more careful when living with him in the future."

Such provocative words between husband and wife made Fu Yu's eyes widen immediately, "I am working hard for the prince, how can you tear up our relationship like this?"

Lin Yu couldn't help laughing, "His Royal Highness said it too late, and it's too late to reconcile now."

For a while, the atmosphere in the room became lively again, without the previous condensation.
