Chapter 211
The lights in the room were bright, but they couldn't illuminate the cold look on Lu Zhijie's face.

He looked at Qin Zhangyuan and said, "Originally, I really planned to ask the eldest prince to help Mr. Qin escape from danger, but now it seems that there is no need to go to such trouble."

Qin Zhangyuan seemed to have noticed something, and immediately backed away in horror.

Lu Zhijie said no more, turned around and left with Chengchang.

But just when all the guards thought that Lu Zhijie had left with Chengchang, Chengchang returned to the cold palace like a ghost.

Lu Zhijie's heart was beating wildly as he watched Chengchang remove the bed curtains on the side, "Chengchang, you can't kill me. I am following the eldest prince wholeheartedly. I am a big girl, all big girls..."

Before he could finish speaking, Cheng Chang tightened his neck.

The feeling of suffocation instantly enveloped his whole body. Qin Zhangyuan didn't even have time to struggle, and he became a piece of fish at his mercy.

Before his consciousness completely disappeared, he finally understood that Su Chengying did not lie to him. From the moment Su Chengying stood here today, she wanted him to die.

Soon, Qin Zhangyuan died.

Chengchang put the bed curtain in his hand on the beam and tied it, then hung Qin Zhangyuan on it, then jumped out of the back window and quickly disappeared into the night.

The night passed quickly, and early the next morning, the palace messenger went to the cold palace to deliver food to Qin Zhangyuan as usual. When he entered, he found that Qin Zhangyuan had hanged himself in the cold palace.

"what--!"

The screams of the palace people broke the morning tranquility.

Soon, the news reached Emperor Liang's ears.

If Qin Zhangyuan was alive and well, this matter would be in the past. After all, there was no evidence to prove that Qin Zhangyuan really had an affair with Su Zhenzhen.

But now that Qin Zhangyuan is dead, people will naturally mistakenly think that he committed suicide out of fear of crime.

In this way, there was no need to prove anything anymore. Su Zhenzhen couldn't explain it even if she was covered with the most.

On the same day, Emperor Liang sent a message to Emperor Tang.

After receiving the news, Emperor Tang became extremely gloomy, "Go and call me the eldest prince!"

Wei Liangquan, the chief eunuch, quickly said yes, and soon brought the eldest prince to the imperial study.

"My son, please pay my respects to my father." The eldest prince knelt down and said his greetings.

"One thing after another, what can I do to comfort you? How can I comfort you!" Emperor Tang was really furious and threw the letter from Beiliang directly in front of the eldest prince.

The eldest prince picked it up and looked at it in confusion, and was instantly petrified on the spot.

Su Zhenzhen and Qin Zhangyuan were caught, but Qin Zhangyuan committed suicide out of fear of crime...

How can it be!

"Father, although Su Zhenzhen and Qin Zhangyuan are not related by blood, they would never do such an outrageous thing. Please find out, father, there must be some hidden secret in this!" The eldest prince knelt down and kowtowed, extremely embarrassed. .

Emperor Tang angrily pointed at the secret letter sent from Beiliang and angrily said, "Now that both people have stolen the goods, Qin Zhangyuan committed suicide out of fear of crime. Is there anything else to investigate about this matter? It was you who recommended Su Zhenzhen to go to Beiliang for marriage. Yes, now Qin Zhangyuan is the person beside you again..."

Although Emperor Tang didn't say the following words, his meaning was already clear. He was obviously suspecting that the eldest prince might have known about Su Zhenzhen's affair with Qin Zhangyuan but concealed it.When Beiliang proposed marriage, Emperor Tang couldn't bear to send his daughter there for marriage. It was at this time that the eldest prince proposed that Su Chengying take Su Zhenzhen with him. Although Su Chengying was not of royal blood, with Su Zhen Marrying Zhen Yi as his aunt also blocked Beiliang's mouth.

Originally, Emperor Tang did not agree.

After all, the Su family should all be executed and held accountable, so as to calm the anger of the people.

It was the eldest prince who knelt in front of him time and time again and convinced him!
At that time, Emperor Tang was still thinking that the eldest son was sensible and would solve the problem for him with full satisfaction, but now that he thinks about it, who knows if the eldest prince had his own selfish motives when he suggested that the daughter of the Su family marry.

After all, for the girls of the Su family, the eldest prince is their savior. If the eldest prince has the affair between Qin Zhangyuan and Su Zhenzhen in his hands, then both Qin Zhangyuan and Su Zhenzhen will naturally do their best to help. The eldest prince works hard!

They are all people who grew up in royal battles. The emperor naturally understands the art of controlling people!
"Tell me, what exactly do you want to do by sending the Su family daughter to Beiliang?" Emperor Tang asked gloomily.

The eldest prince's heart trembled. Naturally, he could not admit anything. He just knelt down and kowtowed, "I just want to share my father's worries. I hope my father will trust me..."

Emperor Tang knew that he had no evidence in his hand and everything was just his suspicion. He frowned and looked at the eldest prince who only shouted to him to believe him. He waved his hand impatiently, "Go back, Su Zhenzhen's matter." I will leave it to others, so there is no need for you to intervene."

Su Zhenzhen and Su Chengying went to Beiliang to get married. It was the eldest prince who helped the emperor. Although the emperor did not punish the eldest prince, he told him not to interfere in Su Zhenzhen's affairs. This was obviously a warning to the eldest prince. , don’t do unnecessary things.

The eldest prince gritted his teeth and could only nod his head, "My son, I obey."

After the eldest prince left, Wei Liangquan lowered his voice and said, "Anger is very harmful to the body. Your Majesty, please calm down."

Emperor Tang looked at Wei Liangquan in silence for a while, then lowered his voice and said, "During this period, we will send people to keep an eye on the eldest prince's residence. If there is any trouble with the eldest prince, they will report it to me as soon as possible."

Wei Liangquan leaned forward slightly and said, "Old slave, I obey."

The eldest prince returned to the mansion in despair all the way from the palace. When he stepped out of the carriage, he seemed to be heartbroken and frightened. He almost slipped and fell to the ground.

The concierge at the door saw it and rushed forward to help him.

From a distance, it looks like a mess.

The eldest prince was helped into the mansion by a group of people from outside the door. After he entered the study room and closed the door, all the fear and grievance on the eldest prince's face disappeared.

He slowly closed his eyes and then opened them again, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

The eldest prince walked to the desk and sat down, forcing himself to calm down and keep his chest rising and falling.

No matter who Qin Zhangyuan is, Su Zhenzhen will never betray him. It's not that the eldest prince has confidence in him, but that he is very aware of Su Zhenzhen's love and vanity, and the position of future queen is in front of her. , how could she be content with Qin Zhangyuan?

"Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock..."

Outside the door, there was a knock on the door suddenly.

Three hits and three hits, this is the signal from the spies around the eldest prince.

"Come in." The eldest prince whispered.

Soon, a spy knelt on the ground.

His wrinkled clothes and slightly messy hair all indicate that this person hurried to the eldest prince after receiving the news and reported, "Your Highness, Mr. Lu, who is in Beiliang and Shangjing, has sent news. It was said that the second girl of the Su family wanted to discuss something secretly with Mr. Qin. Mr. Qin went as promised, but unexpectedly he was bumped into by the fifth prince of Beiliang. Afterwards, the people from the Duke's Palace discovered the body of the second girl of the Su family. The palace’s secret medicine.”
