Chapter 940: Dead End
The emperor raised his hand and asked the Nine Emperors to bring a chair to him, and told him to sit down as well, before he said, "Just sit there and think about it, every word the prince has ever said to you, it's best not to miss a word." Regardless of whether what you said today is true or not, the most important thing is not to say the wrong thing when confronting the prince. In the past, you thought I was supporting him, but today it is clear that I am supporting you. With such a hidden advantage, let's confront him about this matter!"
Xinli has only turned around until now, what the emperor said that the prince will definitely appear, because no matter whether those so-called rebels are found in the East Palace or not, the emperor has summoned the prince to Xixuan to confront the Nine Emperor Princes face to face. Many times, he really didn't understand the majesty of imperial power.
The news I got again was uneven. But the stewards were still quick, and the only real bad news was to sort out that they had fallen into a complete hopelessness.
He sent the unfavorable results from the eyes and ears of the palace, and did not hide a trace of it to the prince.
He thought that the crown prince would completely collapse all at once, but he didn't expect that he was just silent for a while, and then quickly withdrew from that decadent state, obviously he thought of a new way.
"We haven't failed so quickly, and there's a better way out, and that's Celestia. The steward who stood in front of the book case was stunned by the prince's statement, and he was a little hesitant, how to remind the prince that the eldest princess seemed to be more suitable to be a person who fell into the hole for them than to be the one who could save them. In fact, the prince should know this kind of thing better than anyone else. So, what thoughts flashed through his head...... He stared nervously at the expression on the prince's face at this time.
He thought he would find it dazed. But the truth was obviously the opposite, and what he could find on the prince's face was the extreme affirmation. Isn't the eldest princess their mortal enemy, although in some cases, the relationship between them can be slightly eased, and then use each other, but at this time, if there is a definite chance to shoot the prince down to the dust through the hands of others, then the eldest princess will obviously resume the identity of the prince again. At the very least, they will put their hands up and just stand by cleanly and wait to see how they are defeated.
He pondered too deeply, and when he raised his head, he found that the prince had already walked out of the house, and he was anxious to follow, but was stopped by the prince who had not turned his head, "You stay here, drag them who come to search for a while at the gate, and I will be back soon." ”
The crown prince fell from the wall and was caught by the palace guards, which was the way he was happy to be sent to the eldest princess to meet.
Because it would be fast enough, the actions of these secret guards were the fastest in the palace, and as he knew, there was no interrogation. They have always only been the best killers in the palace, and they never use their brains. The only thing that made him miscalculate. Yizhen who came out of the shadows.
He never wanted him to see her embarrassed appearance, but the truth seems to be, he has always been happy to do so.
Yizhen probably didn't expect him to be caught so obediently, so she couldn't recognize him for a while, and when she really saw that it was the prince, although her face couldn't make people look surprised!
In fact, the prince didn't react to Yizhen all at once, he guessed who he was, only half of the guess was right, and a large part of the trance that Yizhen showed was because she had just done something, which was enough to be exciting in her reckless behavior for many years. stole the Changle that was hidden in the study by her brother and fed her the medicine that burned her throat. She was now sure that the woman could no longer speak. Words that sound ugly like ducks came. She thought her brother would never be sad about that ugly voice again.
Then his thoughts suddenly returned to look at the prince in front of him, "For the prince's enthusiasm, the way I will repay it may be cruel." It's never the first time I've said these words. The prince should be cautious when doing things. Yizhen rubbed her aching forehead and warned him in a mocking tone.
The crown prince knew exactly what Yi Zhen was talking about, so he tried to weigh his words as much as he could, so that Yi Zhen would not get angry and snatch him away from the hands of these secret guards.
So almost only in this moment, he turned around, and there were all kinds of strange statements, but in fact, many statements would make people Yizhen continue to think about his intentions. Or to encourage her to be more defensive about herself. Of course, as it is now, it is not good to meditate deeply and not say a word. Mainly for some reasons before, he deliberately left the impression that Yizhen was that she was a person who did not distinguish between public and private.
Therefore, there is only one way to tell her what you actually mean.
It's adventurous, but it's worth a try.
"I'm here to see Her Royal Highness the Celestial Princess. My father, the Emperor, was sending someone to search the East Palace at this time, and I needed her help. He was telling the truth, something that Yizhen could read when she looked into the prince's eyes, and there was a moment of merging gaze. But the time was too short, and she could only trust him for a little time. After that, he became even more suspicious of his intentions.
"Does the prince prepare such a beautiful reason every time he breaks into the house at night? Do you mean that you are in great danger and rush to ask for help? But with all due respect, it would be better to ask your mother than to ask someone who hates you! You are not here to waste your precious time because you need someone to remind you like a slap in the face, that your aunt is not someone close to you who can help you, is it?"
"So Zhen'er can send me to my aunt and let her uncover my lies. He said with a steady eye.
"But what to do? I have no such interest, I want to sleep well tonight, and then I will wake up refreshed to-morrow, and I will never know that you have been here. But the prince knew what she wanted to ask, and she wanted to use these refusals as a reason to ask him, not on the surface, but real, and she could be sure that the eldest princess would help him.
The prince was stunned, thinking in his mind what bad consequences would be caused if he exposed all his intentions now!
Yi Zhen didn't intend to wait for him for too long, she spoke in that commanding tone, "Your Highness heard me right, I don't plan to forgive Your Highness for jumping into the palace from the wall, so I will let them take Your Highness to the firewood room to rest." By the way, I remember that His Highness just said that the Emperor is looking for His Highness because of His Highness's mistake, so I have hidden His Highness here for such a legitimate reason......
