Royal Palace.

 At this time, the imperial study room was brightly lit.

The palace guards outside were all trembling with fear. Even though there were small flakes of snow falling in the sky, they did not dare to move.

 The atmosphere inside the imperial study is colder and terrifyingly serious than outside.

Emperor Yu's face was sullen, for no other reason than that the four beggars were pretending to look alike. Even the emperor himself was deceived.

This is completely in contempt of royal majesty.

“Brother Emperor, what do you think of this matter?” Emperor Yu first asked the wise king for his opinion.

The wise king pondered for a moment and said respectfully: "Those four beggars have obviously been ambushing Lintian Street for a long time, otherwise they would not have been met by us by such a coincidence. As for their target, they only have the prince."

Emperor Yu's idea of ​​paying a private visit incognito was an impromptu decision, and no one would arrange it so quickly. But he and Princess Xian didn't plan to go out at first. It was the prince who knocked on the door and wanted to take Bei Hengjin out to watch the lanterns. Unfortunately, my son fell asleep.

Since he didn’t want to spoil the prince’s interest, he decided to go together.

As for who wants to deal with the prince, the answer is ready to come out.

 He will not point it out and believes that the prince will make his own decision.

At that time, the prince tried his best to prevent Emperor Yu from following, but it was he who insisted on finding out what happened that led to the accident. If Marquis Yuki hadn't suddenly appeared. I'm afraid things won't go well tonight.

Some of the killers were killed, and some committed suicide by taking poison, leaving no one alive.

The expression on Emperor Yu's face was obscure and difficult to understand. After the wise king finished speaking, he did not give any advice, but looked at the prince with unclear meaning.

 “What did the prince say?”

Hearing this, the prince felt frightened. Father, this tone is not right!

 Is he doubting him?

 “My son thinks that Lord Ji’s appearance is strange.” The prince truthfully stated his doubts.

The wise king narrowed his eyes: Sure enough.

Emperor Yu showed no emotion or anger on his face, so he asked him, "What's so strange? Can you please tell me what the prince has to say?"

The prince couldn't tell for the moment. He just had suspicion, but he felt that this suspicion was somewhat untenable. It's not easy to draw a conclusion at the moment.

"I think you are trying to confuse things. The Ji family is loyal to the emperor and patriotic. How can there be something fishy?" Emperor Yu looked grave.

 The prince did not understand what Emperor Yu said.

On the other hand, the eyes of the wise king next to him moved slightly, and he sensed that Emperor Yu intended to test the prince. Sure enough, Emperor Yu gave the answer the next second.

 “The second son will be at the other village all night tonight.” It took a long time before I heard this sentence from Emperor Yu, which was intended to remind the prince.

The prince's eyebrows moved, his eyes dark and unclear.

 The second prince has been at the other village all night, and there is no possibility of participating in tonight's assassination. Therefore, this assassination was directed and staged by the prince, with the intention of framing the second prince. At the same time, he took out the Ji family and tried to remove the suspicion on him.

 After all, it seems that currently only the second prince poses a threat to the crown prince's position.

At present, I don’t know whether Emperor Yu believed the prince, or whether he believed that the second prince really stayed at the other village all night.

“I will investigate this matter and clear my name.” Obviously, the prince also understood what Emperor Yu meant. His face looked a bit hard to describe.

His own father is suspicious of him, no matter who he is, his temper will not be good.

The wise king only sighed secretly in his heart. He likes obedient children and likes the prince to follow his instructions every step he takes, without any disobedience or mistake.

"Then I'll be waiting for news from you." I want to see what clues I can find out.

At the end of the day, Emperor Yu asked about Bei Hengjin's injury.

 “Back to the Emperor, thanks to Mrs. Ji’s wonderful rejuvenation, I have woken up.”

“That’s good, go back and spend more time with him. That kid showed up at the back door of Ji’s Mansion, and he must have wanted to sneak the youngest of the Ji family out to watch the lanterns. It’s so outrageous.”

Hearing this, the Xian King looked helpless: "Jin'er has become a little bit innocent as a child recently. My younger brother is very happy and indulges it a little bit." "Well, just control it more and don't develop it. With his pampered temperament, the youngest member of the Ji family is the lifeblood of General Ji and cannot make any mistakes. "

Emperor Yu deliberately emphasized the words "general" and "lifeblood", believing that the prince was a person who knew the importance of importance.

After hearing this, the wise king breathed a sigh of relief for the prince. Generally speaking, Emperor Yu still believed in the prince.

When he came out, the wise king saw that the prince's expression was depressed, so he gave him a piece of advice: "Ah Mo, the Ji family is full of loyal ministers. Since the Marquis can take the initiative to hand over military power, it means that he has no intention of getting involved in your fight. Don't do it. It’s a chilling thing to say.”

The prince said in a deep voice: "Uncle Wang, you have forgotten one thing, and that is Ji Yushu's hatred for Gu."

The wise king was startled and almost wanted to open his mouth.

The prince thought about the relationship between Bei Hengjin and the youngest member of the Ji family. He suppressed what he said next and bowed to say goodbye to the wise king.

 The prince walked very quickly, anger covering his face.

 When he returned to the East Palace, he tossed and turned and couldn't figure it out, so he hurriedly went to find the queen.

 When he came out of Fengyi Palace, his brows furrowed even more.

 He fell into self-doubt. Did Ji Yushu really not hate him? Do the Ji family really have nothing to argue with?

 He thought the same way before, but what happened last night made him have some self-doubt.

He suddenly felt that there was a pair of terrible pushing hands pushing him towards the abyss.

At this time, a confidant came over and whispered: "Prince, the second prince was in the other courtyard last night and spent the night with concubine Ji."

The prince frowned slightly, but this could not remove his suspicion.

In the dark room of Yuehua Palace, after listening to the old man's report, the third prince couldn't help but cough up a mouthful of blood, and his sickly white face became sinister little by little.

He had been planning hard for many days, but in the end it was a total failure. How could he not be angry?

 “Master, don’t get angry.” The old man was very worried about the poison in his body.

The third prince said nonchalantly: "Ji Xiaoshan appears strangely, go check it out. And the letter must be found."

 “My subordinates have sent people to take care of it.”

After the old man left, the third prince lay weakly on the soft couch. He had started to make plans since two years ago. Everything has been going smoothly in the past two years. It seems that since the failure of the Ji family's youngest transfer contract incident, things have not been very smooth in the future. smoothly.

 Suddenly, he thought of the time when the second prince was defeated at the Full Moon Banquet.

He guessed that the second prince's plan at that time was to set up Lu Qingyan, but it was somehow ruined by Ji Yushu.

Ji Yushu should have hated the prince and the second prince. After all, he found out that it was the second prince who sent people to ambush the prince that caused his legs to become disabled. Relatively speaking, he wanted to get rid of the second prince more.

When the prince learned that the mastermind behind the incident was also the second prince, he did not help him seek justice, which made the Ji family unhappy.

Judging from this matter, the Ji family will not side with the second prince, nor will they side with the prince.

Perhaps the Ji family is also making plans, with the purpose of using the prince's help to get rid of the second prince and avenge Ji Yushu.

In Ji Yushu's opinion, there is no doubt that the killer tonight must be sent by the second prince.

 His purpose is to make the second prince and the prince fight each other. Although Emperor Yu did not get the letter, he was somewhat suspicious of the prince.

Without the help of letters, the doubt in Emperor Yu's heart would soon be overcome by himself.

  Can't make even a single ripple.

 Midnight.

  The third prince suddenly woke up from the couch, with beads of sweat rolling down his forehead. It was freezing outside, but his whole body was covered in cold sweat.

He couldn't figure out why he often dreamed of a woman in recent days. He hated women and would not allow women to come within three steps of him, but this woman appeared in his dreams more often in recent days. And every time she managed to get close to him and call him Yuan affectionately. Who is she? What does it foreshadow in his dream?

Damn, damn, this person deserves to be damned for trying to mess with his mind. (End of chapter)
