Chapter 386
The emperor personally went around the inner courtyard, but returned in vain, so he could only give up for the time being.

After leaving the gate of King Jing's mansion, the people outside the door have not dispersed, they are only eagerly waiting for the news of King Jing and Princess Jing.

Seeing that the emperor finally came out, Grand Master Wen and others stepped forward and said anxiously: "Did the emperor see someone?"

The emperor didn't say a word, and didn't even look at the people beside him, he got into the sedan chair and left, leaving only a team of imperial guards stationed here.

Back in the palace, Eunuch Li followed the emperor and waited carefully.

Eunuch Li, who was overwhelmed by Eunuch Liu, has finally reached his prime.

After Eunuch Liu died, he naturally became a powerful eunuch beside the emperor.

Of course, he has heard about these things that happened today.

"Tell me, how do the people in the city organize me today?"

Eunuch Li was thinking about this, when he heard the emperor ask a question abruptly.

"This... the people in the city have a lot of complaints against the emperor. However, since King Jing is dead now, the emperor naturally doesn't have to be scruples."

Eunuch Li didn't mention anything about the prince. He knew why Eunuch Liu died tragically, and he knew what to say and what not to point fingers at.

"Hmph, those things that I don't know good or bad, I have been kind to them before, but in a blink of an eye, I have completely forgotten them!"

The emperor was half lying on the small couch, and Eunuch Li rubbed his temples carefully.

"Your Majesty, you don't need to get angry with those unreasonable troublemakers, but you must take care of the dragon's body."

Eunuch Li was too cautious, which made him a bit boring.

The emperor suddenly got a little irritable, got up and said: "Eunuch Li, you send another five hundred imperial guards to guard Prince Jing's Mansion. Ask a thousand cavalry to search for traces of Prince Jing and Concubine Jing in the city. They must be found within three days!"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Two days later, the emperor exhausted all means and even sealed off the city gate for two full days, but they still couldn't find them.

On the contrary, the prince, taking advantage of the people's resentment towards the emperor these two days, he has done a lot of good deeds openly and secretly to buy people's hearts.

For a while, rumors that the emperor had a cruel temperament and the prince had benevolence and righteousness spread like wildfire.

When the emperor heard the news, he was furious, and called the prince over that night.

The prince didn't dodge or evade, he just came here alone, with only one Eunuch Zhao by his side.

"Father, I haven't seen you for a long time. Is your dragon body okay?"

The father and son haven't seen each other for many days, but the prince has lost a lot of weight, his cheeks are slightly sunken, it can be seen that the queen's death has hit him hard.

"Prince, I called you here today to appease you, do you know?"

The emperor sat safely on the top seat, and the dinner on the table did not move at all, just waiting for the prince to come and share it.

Seeing his hypocritical appearance, the prince gritted his teeth, suppressed the anger surging in his chest, and sat down calmly.

"My son naturally knows. Father, it was my son who was ignorant a few days ago, which made father furious."

"I don't blame you."

The father and son each took a step back, but the atmosphere during the dinner still seemed a little stiff.

"My lord, I remember that these are your favorite foods. Today, my father specially asked someone to make these. You can taste them, and you will still be able to eat them."

"Father, these are the things that I loved when I was young."

Looking at the table full of gourmet delicacies, the crown prince didn't even move his chopsticks, even under the persuasion of the emperor, he still didn't move.

The atmosphere was a little stiff for a while, the emperor cast a fixed glance at him, and slowly put down the chopsticks in his hand.

"Prince, are you still angry with your father?"

"Where is the father's words? The father is always the father, and the son is always just a courtier. How can he have any objection to the father."

A self-deprecating smile flashed across the prince's face.

"What I have now will be yours in the future."

"is it?"

The prince raised his eyes slowly, his eyes were cold and without any emotion.

"But now, it doesn't belong to me, does it?"

"Prince, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. You should know this truth."

The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, with an unknown smile on his lips.

"Oh? Royal father knows exactly what this son-in-law wants."

"What you want is nothing more than that dragon chair."

The emperor's tone was very firm.

"Hahaha!"

"why are you laughing?"

The prince suddenly raised his head and laughed loudly, picked up the wine glass on the table, and drank the wine in the glass.

"Father, I remember that this snack was my favorite thing when I was young. At that time, my son broke his teeth, so my father stopped asking the dining room to make this snack for my son. As time went by, I just forgot about it." It smells..."

As he spoke, the prince picked up a piece of pastry on the table, put it in his mouth, and chewed it carefully, his expression seemed to be dazed.

"Father, today's snacks belong to my son?"

The emperor looked at him quietly without saying a word.

The prince ignored his response and just stuffed the snacks into his mouth piece by piece.

"Father, this snack is exactly the same as the one I ate when I was a child..."

"Prince, you..."

The emperor looked at him in surprise, stood up in disbelief, and took a few steps back.

I saw the prince grinning, blackened blood gurgling from his mouth.

"Come on, call the imperial doctor quickly, call the imperial doctor quickly!"

The emperor yelled in horror, Eunuch Li entered the door to see the scene, and immediately ran to the Imperial Medical Office in a frenzy.

When Doctor Qin arrived, the prince had already fallen to the ground unconscious.

But the emperor just stood far away and didn't ask anyone to touch the prince, as if he was afraid of getting involved in something.

"Emperor Qin, no matter what, the prince must be cured!"

Just throwing down these words, the emperor fled and ran out.

After leaving the bedroom, the emperor was extremely impatient, and after much deliberation, he had no choice but to go to Concubine Yue's palace.

At this time, Concubine Yue Gui had just had her dinner and was teasing and playing with the infant baby.

"Chuan'er, be good, Chuan'er, don't make trouble, listen to your mother..."

"The Emperor is here!"

Eunuch Li's trembling voice was even more so in the quiet and empty hall.

Concubine Yue Gui's expression changed, she handed the child in her arms to the nanny, stood up and saluted.

"The concubine has seen the emperor."

"Yue'er, Yue'er..."

The emperor hugged her in a panic.

"What's the matter, Your Majesty?"

Concubine Yuegui struggled a little, then followed him.

The emperor only buried his head deeply in her neck, but he didn't reply.

Concubine Yue raised her eyes to look at Eunuch Li who was behind the emperor, Eunuch Li made a mouth-shape to her, causing her face to turn pale.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with the prince?"

"The prince... the prince, he should die!"
