On the other side.

His Royal Highness the eldest prince has successfully escaped the charge of murdering his father, but due to various opposition, he has no way to smoothly tie the throne after the first period of the king's death.

If he wants to inherit the throne of the king, he must find out the cause of the king's real death, and convince people, including His Royal Highness the Second Prince.

His Royal Highness the Second Prince wants to be the king, and it is impossible to agree to let the eldest brother take the position of the king no matter what.

There is destined to be a life-and-death duel between two people.

His Royal Highness the eldest prince has been looking for someone to secretly search the palace prison for a fire.

He sent someone to dig up the blackened corpse and found that it was not Ling Xiaoning, he immediately came out of his grief and took out more people to investigate the matter.

After these days of investigation, it was speculated that Ling Xiaoning was probably in danger at that time, but he was rescued by someone who came in from outside the palace.

After His Royal Highness the Second Prince pretended to be dead, he also sent someone to investigate the matter as soon as possible, and he had been secretly chasing Ling Xiaoning and the others.

There is no time to delay, if His Royal Highness the Second Prince finds them first, their lives may be in danger.

His Royal Highness the eldest prince couldn't sleep and couldn't swallow, just hoping to find someone sooner.

Someone reported that the two of them had fled into a deep mountain and old forest before getting a reliable clue, and a group of people were found doing strange things in the forest.

They arrested two of them, subjected them to harsh interrogation, and later learned that they had exchanged fire with the group, and the situation was critical.

Ji Xuanchen was seriously injured this time, but he didn't die, and the person who was sent out found it was sent to the doctor for treatment.

His Royal Highness the eldest prince had already guessed that the person might have been saved by him, and after learning the news, he immediately rushed to the hospital to inquire.

Helplessly, Ji Xuanchen's injury was too serious, and the doctor said that he was abandoned in the wilderness for two days, and he was not treated in time, and he was able to hold on to his breath, and it was already a miracle at this time, and it all depends on God's will to recover in the future.

Ji Xuanchen is currently in a coma, and he can't wake up at all, let alone speak.

His Royal Highness the eldest prince was anxious, and sent someone to invite the best imperial doctor from the air to treat him.

After a night's work, he finally woke up, but his mental state was too poor to articulate.

He explained intermittently that after that attack, he had also lost Ling Xiaoning's whereabouts. People may still be in that mountain, or they may have left, or they may have suffered some accident along the way.

After Ji Xuanchen was seriously injured, he couldn't protect himself, where did he have any energy to take care of other things.

His Royal Highness the eldest prince could only be disappointed for a while, and sent more people to explore the mountain forest.

He was surprised to learn that the group of people was probably looking for some underground treasure, so he notified a group of people from the government and asked them to add as many people as possible to check the situation.

If the security is really hidden in the forest, it is absolutely impossible for these people to secretly transport away their treasury is not very abundant, and it would be great if they could get this treasure.

His Royal Highness the Second Prince couldn't help but be moved after knowing about this, and he naturally couldn't tolerate His Royal Highness the Great Prince finding the treasure one step ahead of him.

If His Royal Highness the eldest prince succeeds in finding these treasures and brings benefits to the court and the people, everyone's opinion of him will change, and it will be very unfavorable to the competition for the throne of the second prince.

So he hurriedly found a group of people to enter the mountains and forests, wanting to intervene in the search for treasure.

His Royal Highness the eldest prince naturally would not agree to him doing such a thing, and the two teams of the two people had a stalemate with each other halfway.

In order to solve this problem, His Royal Highness the eldest prince and His Royal Highness the second prince made an appointment to discuss the matter in a private room in the restaurant.

"Since it is for the sake of the people and the country to obtain this treasure, it is better for our brothers to work together to find a way to dig it out, and this treasure will be credited to two people at that time."

The eldest prince frowned slightly, holding the teacup in one hand.

"The two of us don't have to beat around the bush when we talk, I naturally know your purpose...... I wouldn't mind sharing the credit with you if it could bring benefits to many people, but I'm afraid you don't really think so. ”

"In that case, then I won't talk this nonsense to you, I'm afraid that the woman you care about the most, right? If you don't want any accidents to happen to the woman, why don't you let your people leave the mountains and forests, and let my people search the treasure themselves. ”

"Ling Xiaoning is really in your hands!"

"That's right, you must be familiar with this thing."

His Royal Highness the Second Prince took out a pair of silver bracelets that looked very simple, which was something that His Royal Highness the Great Prince once gave away.

On the surface, it doesn't look special, but it's actually something given by His Royal Highness the eldest prince's mother.

"How did you take this thing?"

"Can you be nervous if I don't get something special? It's better to give you two days to think about it, and we will meet here the day after tomorrow, hoping that you can make a calm enough consideration. ”

"You can't hurt Xiao Ning!"

"I used to like that woman in a daze, but now I know what is more important between the throne and a woman...... You've thought it through before you tell me the answer. ”

His Royal Highness the Second Prince stood up as he said and walked outside.

His Royal Highness the eldest prince clenched one hand into a fist, and his face was slightly pale.

"Damn, I deliberately released fake news to hit me before, and now I want to use this matter to control me......"

His Royal Highness the eldest prince is not a greedy person for money, he did not directly agree to the request of His Royal Highness the second prince, and he also has his own considerations.

If he easily agreed to the second prince's request, he would definitely take advantage of this matter to do whatever he wanted.

At that time, His Royal Highness the eldest prince may not be able to save the beloved woman, and he may give away the treasure in vain.

She had to calm down and think carefully about it at this time.

Ling Xiaoning has been locked in the room for two days, and someone will deliver two meals on time every day, and the quality of the meals is not bad.

In addition to the fact that she has no freedom, staying in the house is not a big problem.

I was even more worried about what kind of changes would happen in the future.

When it was almost dark, the door was opened, and His Royal Highness the Second Prince and two of his followers walked in together.

"Ling Xiaoning, can they take care of you?"

"What's so bad about it, what are you trying to do by locking me up here?"

"Do you think it's the use of me keeping you here and not letting you go to see Lord Yama all of a sudden?"

"You...... Song Zhiqiu......"
