It's a pity that as soon as this sentence was finished, the second prince, who was questioning the third sister with him just now, turned his head and said with a gentle smile: "Brother, this statement is wrong. I have always known in Dongzhou that everything cannot survive the changes of the world. , there is no eternal principle in the world, even if it is the true yang view, not everything is right."

The eldest prince looked at the second sister who suddenly turned the offensive to refute his words, and realized that he had slipped a word just now.

The second younger sister and the third younger sister are both women, and they are in conflict with the concept of Zhenyang Temple opposing women as princes. For her, Zhenyang Temple can also be excluded.

It's okay to make trouble with the elder brother and question the third sister.

But it would be impossible for her to support Zhenyang Temple together with the First Prince.

If she followed the eldest prince's lead and admitted to Zhenyang Temple just now, it would be like a slap in the face for herself who wanted to fight for the heir.

"Well, no matter what, we must never forget the teachings of the sages. Even if Zhenyang Temple is conservative, those matters should be resolved by Dongzhou itself, and outsiders should not be allowed to talk about things."

"Hehe, big brother is right, Third Sister is indeed in a hurry."

The eldest prince tried to win over the second sister again, the two exchanged words, and pointed the finger back again.

The fourth prince saw his brothers and sisters all smiling, arguing back and forth word by word, coughed dissatisfiedly, and raised his hands.

"Father, the boy is full, if there is nothing else, the boy will leave first."

He doesn't like to listen to the contentious contests in these words. What he wants is to go out to fight for justice and be praised by the people, but he is neither good nor caring about the intrigue in the court.

"nothing."

The emperor also knew that his fourth son was not interested in these things, so he waved his hand.

The fourth prince was about to stand up and go out to play, but saw the third sister who was seated next to him also stood up together.

Long Chaohua bowed to her father: "My daughter is full too, and I still have some things to do, so I'll go back first."

"Oh……?"

Long Wuxing smiled as he looked at his daughter who left the table.

"You didn't move your chopsticks, did you?"

"I can't eat that much early in the morning. I also admitted that my elder brother and second sister wanted to ask me. It's okay. My daughter will leave."

After finishing speaking, before Long Wuxing agreed, Long Chaohua got up and left, taking advantage of the opportunity to put the jade bowl and chopsticks into his sleeve.

Seeing his daughter's small movements, Long Wuxing frowned slightly, but didn't say any more.

According to the temperament of the third daughter, she will definitely seize this opportunity to confront her eldest brother and second sister, at least she can get a bargain.It's not like her style to run away like this now.

"...Oh, that's all."

After clapping his hands, the emperor closed his eyes, and a dark shadow flashed away from behind the emperor's jade throne and disappeared.

----------------------

"Third Highness, don't you want to have breakfast with His Majesty today..."

"I came back first when I felt uncomfortable eating, and went to the kitchen to prepare some food for me."

Long Chaohua returned to her Ning'an Palace. Before the crown prince was established, all the princes lived in the palace, and each had their own confidants. Big cronies.

"Your Highness, the eldest prince and the second prince didn't treat you well..."

"The eldest brother and the second sister are still the same old tune. Even if they have any evidence in their hands, they dare not show it in front of the father. Don't worry. Go and get some breakfast."

"The servant knows."

The maid secretly looked at her master.

The third prince is wearing a gray palace dress, which is a very rare color in the palace. Even the maids and eunuchs in the palace will not wear such inconspicuous clothes, but the third prince likes it very much. However, this old-fashioned skirt matched with her snow-muscled cherry lips, and the exquisite appearance sculpted by heaven and earth, is like throwing hibiscus flowers into the dust, which is a pity.

Ugh……

"By the way, princess, there is Mr. Liu waiting for you in the teahouse. I have already asked all the servants to retreat. I will make breakfast later and I will send it to your bedroom."

"I see."

Long Chaohua nodded, suddenly remembered something, took out the exquisite jade bowl and chopsticks from his sleeve, and handed it to the maid.

"Take it, and keep it as a bargain in the future."

"Your Highness, you..."

"Don't think too little, just take it."

"How many times have I told you, I will never abandon you! Why do you..."

Long Chaohua patted the maid on the shoulder with a gentle smile, turned around and walked leisurely towards the teahouse without saying a word.

Holding the jade bowl and chopsticks, the palace lady remembered the strange words and deeds of His Highness the Third Highness over the past six months, held them in her heart sadly, sighed, and walked towards the kitchen.

Long Chaohua came to the teahouse, shook the door and pushed it open. A skinny old man dressed strangely was sitting inside the door. When he saw the princess coming, he didn't bow down and bowed. He drank the tea the servant had prepared for him.

Such behavior is obviously a person from the rivers and lakes.

Having the ability to enter this heavily guarded palace shows that he has a good cultivation, Long Chaohua did not neglect, and sat on the chief seat and poured a cup of tea for this "Mr. Liu".

"It's hard work, is it done?"

"Well, the news of Cao Shangshu's death will come around this afternoon. His head is buried in the mountains eight hundred miles away, and no one will find out in a while."

"What about his wife and children?"

"There are a total of 120 people in Cao's house. Except for the eldest wife who died for him, everyone else is kept alive. It's just that the family wealth is lost. I'm afraid they will become beggars in a short time."

"Well, that's fine, the promised money will be sent to the man's house when there is not much money."

Long Chaohua nodded, leaning sideways on the ebony chair, resting his face on his right hand, squinting his eyes and thinking about the next step.

Mr. Liu sipped his tea, looked sideways at the little girl in the gray skirt, and suddenly said: "We have cooperated for so long, I don't need your money, as long as you answer a question for me."

"You say."

"Why keep them alive?"

Mr. Liu swallowed the tea, rubbed the rim of the cup with the lid of the teacup: "It's not difficult to kill those people, your intention is to make the officials who support the True Yang Sect fearful. Is it enough to scare chickens and monkeys? Leaving those alive is a hidden danger after all, if you were in the past, you would definitely give them a good time."

He narrowed his eyes and sighed: "If you are soft-hearted, I can remind you that some people are alive, but they are not happy if they are not dead."

"I know that killing them all is a kindness, but... some people don't like dead people."

"Who?"

"If Mr. Liu thinks that you are very happy to be alive now, then don't ask more questions."

Long Chaohua smiled and turned his head to look at the quack who he had hired to commit the murder, and shook his fingers lightly: "My daughter's thoughts are wild guesses, it's impolite."

"Hehehe, the old man is reckless."

Mr. Liu didn't care about Long Chaohua's words just now, he just took a sip of tea and nodded: "The Third Highness has plans for the Third Highness, the old man is just your hand, your knife, if there is anything that needs the old man's help, next time Just mention it again.”

After finishing the tea in the cup, Mr. Liu put down the teacup, stood up from the chair, and saluted Long Chaohua respectfully.

"Then, I heard that you will have some distinguished guests coming, so I will take my leave first."

"Well, walk slowly."

"By the way, the porridge and rice in the porridge shed in the capital have tasted pretty good recently."

"Hehe, the fat mouse that stole the porridge is gone, and the porridge and rice are naturally thick and fragrant."

Long Chaohua poured himself a cup of tea and closed his eyes.

There was no sound of doors and windows being opened in the room, but there was one less sound of breathing inside.

After a while, there was a light knock on the door of the teahouse.

The young maid shouted outside the door: "Princess, the wife of Wang Liangsi is here to see you."

"Well, here we come."

Long Chaohua breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and walked out of the teahouse

Facing the sun, she stretched her waist, subconsciously stretched out her hand and licked the index finger of her left hand. The slight salty taste of her fingertips made her dazed for a while, she turned around and closed the door of the teahouse, and walked to An Ning The gate of the palace.

Seeing the Third Highness coming down, the maids went to the door one after another and pushed open the palace door.

Standing outside the door was a middle-aged woman in luxurious clothes. She was plump and slightly powdered. She walked around the stone road outside the door impatiently, carrying an elegant fragrance when she walked.

"Mrs. Wang, long time no see, how come you have time to visit me?"

Long Chaohua walked out of the gate and greeted the lady.

When Mrs. Wang saw Long Chaohua, the expression on her face became more urgent: "Third Highness, I beg you to save my husband!!"

"Oh, what's going on?"

"Five days ago, a group of officers and soldiers who came out of nowhere dragged my husband away from the house. I inquired a lot before I found out what the second princess meant... This, this, what should I do!"

"Don't worry, don't worry, let's go into the room and talk slowly."

Long Chaohua welcomed his wife into the house, and led her into a relatively small room in the northwest corner of the Anning Palace.

The back of the room was sunny, and when the door was opened, a gust of cold wind blew out, making Mrs. Wang shiver with the cold.

But Long Chaohua took her by the hand and sent her to the house.

"I've been waiting here for me this early in the morning. You haven't eaten yet, have you? Yun Qing, go prepare some porridge for Mrs. Wang."

Long Chaohua yelled, the maid guarding the door nodded, turned her head and closed the door, and left quickly.

"I don't even have the heart to eat, Third Highness, you must save my old man! He, he was taken away because of you."

"Calm down and speak slowly."

Long Chaohua put her hands on her knees, her serene expression was in stark contrast to Mrs. Wang who was flustered and eager to get her facial features twisted together. Seeing that His Highness was unmoved, Mrs. Wang twitched the corners of her mouth and let out tears. Suddenly stood up and threw herself on Long Chaohua's lap, crying out for injustice.

"Our old Wangtou has been the first to agree to open a porridge shed in the capital since I heard that the princess is so kind... He does his best and does everything by himself. He personally inspects every porridge shed, I've been busy all day long, and I don't know what time it is when I get home. If you work hard all night, there is no credit but there is hard work—His Highness Wanwang, please be merciful, save our old Wangtou, I, I will give you a kowtow! !!"

With a loud cry, Mrs. Wang prostrated herself on the ground, and lightly knocked her head on the floor.

Long Chaohua sat on the chair without saying a word, turned her head to look at Mrs. Wang's hem, her crimson eyes stared at her with a calm expression.

The room fell silent for a while.

According to Mrs. Wang's calculations, if she cries, makes a fuss, and then kowtows like this, the third highness will somewhat take into account the meeting, and at least reach out to stop her, and then start talking about the follow-up matter of saving lives.

Why is His Highness so indifferent?

Could it be that she is planning to die?

Impossible, now is the time to choose the crown prince, how could His Highness allow those who supported her to be taken away by competitors?

"Three Highnesses?"

Really puzzled, Mrs. Wang raised her head slightly, only to see the Third Highness sitting on the chair smiling, tapping her fingers lightly on the armrest.

"Madam Wang, what's the matter?"

"You, you must save our old Wangtou... I only rely on this one..."

Mrs. Wang was confused, and she couldn't help but weaken the posture of crying.

Long Chaohua smiled slightly, and nodded: "I will help you find a solution, but this matter was done by the second sister, and I am not easy to handle. Either you go to the second sister to discuss it, and ask Why did she get offended by the gruel storage, if she has to send someone to arrest her, it is really impossible to ask someone to write a complaint and hand it over to the Ministry of Officials for a judgement."

"This, how can this work!"

When Mrs. Wang heard that Long Chaohua wanted to let go of her, she felt a little annoyed.

"Our old Wangtou belongs to your highness, the second prince arrested her, but he made it clear that he wanted to use him to talk about your affairs, it's useless for me to ask, third highness, you must think clearly. "

"I thought clearly, hehe, you are wrong, he is my man, his words and deeds are my instructions, and going out represents my face."

Long Chaohua nodded: "If such a person is caught by the second sister, I'm afraid it will bring a lot of disadvantages to me..."

At this moment, the maid outside the door gently knocked on the door: "Your Majesty, the porridge is ready, here it is for you."

"Okay, bring it in. Mrs. Wang is also hungry, give her something to calm down."

Where is Madam Wang in the mood to eat, she feels more and more that Long Chaohua is going to abandon the car to protect the handsome man, so she begs for mercy and weeps bitterly.

She had hoped that Long Chaohua would not want to lose face in front of the servants and agreed, but she did not expect that Long Chaohua took the porridge bowl and brought it to Mrs. Wang.

"Have a drink."

"If Your Highness refuses to agree to me, I will starve to death here, and ask you to agree!"

"Okay, after drinking this bowl of porridge, I'll go talk to someone."

"Really?"

"of course."
