Although the princes are still unwilling, they are helpless even if they are unwilling when the dust settles. Half a month later, they will go to their respective fiefdoms to break away from the care of their parents and spread their wings.

But...... Why can the Seventh Prince stay in the capital? Just because he is the emperor's concubine from the queen?

There are three adult princes, the eldest prince, the second prince, and the fourth prince. As for the third prince, the case from the previous year made him almost useless. But I don't know what Concubine Yu did later, she actually fished the three princes out of the prison, and then threw them into the prison of Tongnan Mansion.

Perhaps, she thought that Tongnan Mansion was her maiden home, where the three princes could be taken care of? But for the third prince, he only wanted to die.

The once high-ranking prince is now going to be reduced to a prisoner. He still has to work every day with those prisoners who usually feel disgusting at a glance, and do those jobs that seem to him to have no afterlife?

The third prince once begged, begged his mother to intercede for him, even if he couldn't be released, it would be a hope to change it for three or two years. Imprisoned for life, this life can only be locked up, eat, drink and Lazar no one to serve it, and someone has to keep an eye on it.

Is this the life of a man? He is now a pig, a dog, a cow and a horse......

It has been a month since I was transferred to the Quarry in Thong Nam Province, and it has been unbearable from the beginning to now, from being a pain every day to being a pain all the time.

He is a prince and a real dragon. But why...... Why are you doing this to me......

In the night, the lights flickered.

After all, the third prince is the emperor's bloodline, and in fact, its treatment is much better than that of other prisoners.

At least, others are ten people crammed into a stone room, while the three princes live in a stone room alone, and there are oil lamps, stone tables, stone benches, and stone beds. When he was in pain every day, he didn't know that there were countless criminals who envied his treatment.

Some people will only look up at the sky in this life, and they will never know how to be satisfied. Some people spend their lives looking at the ground and never want to make progress. If the third prince could look down at others and listen to others' envy of his treatment, maybe it wouldn't be so painful.

As the minutes passed, the third prince sat in the corner with a blank expression, his hand tightly holding the stone knife that had been sharpened these days.

He didn't want to endure such pain, he wanted to end this kind of life. If he can't end his life, then he can only choose to end his life. The third prince is very afraid of death, but he is even more afraid that there will be endless work every day, and he will live in dire straits every day.

Suddenly, the third prince raised his head, and the corners of his mouth hooked into a sly smile.

"It's you...... You're the ones who forced me to die...... Lu Sheng, Ji Lin...... Father's ...... And you, mother, why don't you save me...... Why don't you save me......"

Whew——

The stone knife stabbed into the throat fiercely, and blood gushed out like a water gun. A crazy smile appeared on the face of the third prince, and he did not have the slightest fear in the face of the passage of life. What remains on his face is a strange pleasure.

Appearing in front of him, the three princes only felt that they were constantly sinking.

The body continued to sink as if it had fallen into the void, sinking ......

The world around him was constantly changing, and suddenly, the three princes came to the endless desert. There were no stars in the sky, no lights in the distance, nothing but the cold wind whirring and the yellow sand beneath our feet.

The third prince was frightened, and hurriedly touched his body, and the touch from his body was flesh and blood?

I'm not dead, am I being saved?

"You haven't lived a long life, why did you come here?" a cold voice sounded from behind him, so frightened that the third prince fell directly on the yellow sand. When the third prince saw the appearance of the woman behind him clearly, he was even more frightened and retreated.

"Bu Feiyan......? Why are you here...... You are...... Are you here to get me back?"

"Bu Feiyan?" the woman thought for a moment and shook her head indifferently, "Have you forgotten what you just did?" You still ask me why I am here, I should ask you, why did you come here when your longevity is not over?"

"I just ...... I ......" Suddenly, the third prince remembered, his pupils contracted suddenly, "I...... I killed myself...... Here it is...... The underworld?"

"Go back before you arrive. ”

"Go back?" the third prince regained consciousness and shook his cheeks violently, "No, I'm not going back, I'd rather die...... I don't want to go back. So many people have killed themselves, why can't I die...... I want to be reincarnated, I want to be reincarnated...... I'm going to do it all over again, I'm going to be an emperor......"

"Reincarnation?" the woman in black turned around slowly, smiling.

Reincarnation is not a great person who has done good deeds in one lifetime, a person who has made great merits in the future, or a talented person who has benefited thousands of families. You...... Why?"

"I ...... I'm ......" Suddenly, the third prince was speechless. He wanted to say that he was the third prince, but he had been demoted to a commoner. He wanted to say that he was immeasurably meritorious, but he couldn't even say it himself.

When he was powerful, he thought about fighting for power and profit, just like his mother once asked him, in your life, can you do a practical thing for this country and the people of the world?

Except for gangs, except for intrigue, he has not done anything for twenty years. Is...... Pathetic, lamentable.

"You go back!" the woman smiled faintly, "You have the blood of Emperor Yu, maybe you can make a difference in the future." Death is the act of a coward, and only those who live hard are truly strong. Don't you want to take back what you've lost?"

"How do you take it? I'm a bed bug, an ant. They are too powerful...... Lu Sheng is too powerful, Ji Lin has been canonized as a prince, and if they want to shoot me to death, it's as simple as shooting an ant to death......"

"Isn't it power? I can give it to you! But you have to make a pact with me, I give you power, you have to listen to me. ”

"You want me to bow down to you?" the third prince's face turned cold, "I am the son of the emperor, and you want me to bow down to you?"

"I am the Emperor of the Underworld, controlling the life and death of all beings in the Three Realms, why do you ask me?" the woman in black asked lightly.

"Master!"

The third prince knelt down, and the one who knelt was called a crisp. learned from those who flattered him in the past, and even the humble smile was so appropriate and natural.

"Report—"

As soon as the hour arrived, Lu Sheng had just begun to sit down to handle official business, and there was a knock on the office door.

"Come in, what's the matter?"

"Wuzhou Xuantian Mansion sent an urgent report, last night at three o'clock, Tongnan Mansion Huanben Quarry, the third prince committed suicide!"

"Oh!" Lu Sheng replied disapprerovingly, for this person to commit suicide, it did not bring Lu Sheng's heart to fluctuate. Committing such a big thing and being sentenced to life imprisonment?

But Lu Sheng also knew that at most he would be imprisoned for life, and as a prince, it was impossible to be beheaded. Even if Lu Sheng forcibly beheaded him, not to mention that the court did not accept it, even the people did not accept it.

In the hearts of the people, the emperor is not just a person, but the lord of the world. It is also a symbol of their faith and spirit. The emperor proclaimed himself the Son of Heaven, and the people regarded him as a true dragon, and the son of a true dragon was also a dragon, right? The people could accept that Jiaolong should be suppressed and imprisoned, but they would never accept that Jiaolong should be beheaded.

committed suicide, and gave an account to him and to those who were killed by him.

"I will report this to the emperor...... But I guess I don't need to report it, the thousand-mile urgent report from the Tongnan prefect should have been delivered, right?"

"But...... It is strange that the third prince did not die. ”

"Didn't die? Did you do it lightly, or was you rescued?" At this time, Lu Sheng was surprised.

"According to the Tongnan Mansion brothers, the three princes are absolutely deadly. He secretly sharpened a stone knife and plunged it into his throat, blood splattered five paces away. It's just that the quarry jailer who found the third prince thought that the third prince was dead and hurriedly reported it.

The Xuantian Mansion and the official yamen rushed to the quarry overnight, and the brothers found that the body of the third prince was still warm, and the wound was slowly healing after pulling out the dagger in the throat, and even worse, they found that the blood of the third prince had a trace of golden light.

The jailer of the quarry rumored that the third prince was a golden dragon......"

"Heh......" Lu Sheng smiled coldly, "Isn't the third prince still dead?"

The brothers' reply contained this in the matter, which did not seem to be a deliberate show. ”

Lu Sheng can doubt others, but he will never doubt the brothers in Tongnan Mansion. Tongnan Mansion can be regarded as established by him, and all the backbone members were assigned by Jinling at the beginning. The seniority of the middle and old people in the Xuantian Mansion of Tongnan Mansion is even older than that of the first phase of the Xuantian Mansion in Chuzhou. In the entire Xuantianfu system, this kind of old seniority is comparable to that of a giant panda.

They will definitely not help the third prince to deceive Lu Sheng, and the third prince has already become a lost dog, is there a must?

Sure enough, soon, I will report to the palace and ask Lu Sheng to discuss.

When he arrived at the imperial study, he rubbed his eyebrows with a headache. Seeing Lu Sheng's arrival, he raised his head and smiled bitterly at Lu Sheng.

"Lu Qing, you know about Yi'er, right?"

"The minister also just heard that the emperor wants to pardon the three princes?" Lu Sheng's direct words almost blocked Ji Zheng's back road.

"Yi'er committed suicide in fear of sin......"

"Then, what ceremony does the emperor plan to bury the three princes?" Lu Sheng asked with a clear pretense of confusion.

"Buried? No, Lu Qing, although Yi'er committed suicide in fear of crime, she didn't really die......

"If you are not dead, the argument that you commit suicide in fear of sin is not valid, and this should be called self-harm in fear of sin. ”

Ji Zheng's eyes are very resentful.

Ji Lin slowly turned his face away, deliberately not looking at the eyes cast by Ji Zheng.

Lu Sheng can understand Ji Zheng's mood, as a father, of course there will be partiality. If Ji Zheng can do it without eccentricity, then he is not a mortal, but a saint.

Even Lu Sheng himself didn't dare to guarantee that he was not biased. But there is a saying that it is not the fault of raising a godfather, and it is not your habit for the three princes to be like this? If you don't give the third prince the right to do nonsense, can he come this far?

"That'...... Let's take Yi'er out and ask the doctor for treatment, right?"

Ji Zheng's tone was really cowardly, and it was also the first time that Lu Sheng clearly felt that the relationship between himself and Ji Zheng had become anti-customer-oriented.

Two clear changes in the perception of status, one from Ji Lin, and one this time.

Lu Sheng has never had the idea of being anti-guest-oriented, let alone thinking of overriding the imperial power. But when people reach this height, even if they don't want to, it's an established fact.
