Chapter 217 Death of Prince Huai and Prince Chen



Chapter 217 Death of Prince Huai and Prince Chen

Many people at the scene secretly sighed that the deposed prince's suicide did have a significant impact on His Majesty.

Everyone was guessing how Emperor Jingyuan would deal with the dead prince and his family, as well as those who had conspired with the prince to rebel.

The sky in Dajing has finally changed.

Just when Emperor Jingyuan was silent, the eunuch came in and said that Minister Xiao wanted to see him.

Upon hearing this, Emperor Jingyuan said, "Let him in."

Soon, Xiao Quan came in.

"I see your Majesty!"

"What's the matter?" The hoarse and majestic voice of Emperor Jingyuan rang out in the hall.

Xiao Quan glanced at Emperor Jingyuan at the top with a little worry, then lowered his head and told him everything.

"Your Majesty, last night, the Huai Palace, Chen Palace, and Rui Palace were all assassinated by people arranged by the Crown Prince. Huai Palace..."

Before Xiao Quan could finish, Emperor Jingyuan and Consort Xian immediately interrupted him and asked, "Are there any casualties in Prince Rui's Mansion?"

"What is the current situation at Prince Rui's Mansion?!"

Emperor Jingyuan was mainly worried about Qi You's safety, because yesterday, Zhuying was arranged by that kid to come in to protect him, then... Emperor Jingyuan didn't dare to imagine it. His face was gloomy at this moment, and his heart was full of worries, making his majesty as an emperor even more profound.

The virtuous concubine was so shocked that she stood up, then staggered and almost fell down. Her heart was beating abnormally.

The next second, she subconsciously looked at her son. Seeing Qi Heng shaking his head at her, she felt completely relieved.

My son must be fine now. That's good! That's good!

Emperor Jingyuan naturally saw Qi Heng's reaction. Yes, he was too concerned and became confused. That kid was not an easy person to deal with. He forgot that there was a maidservant beside Qiao who was an expert. No, it should be said that she was the boy's person. So with that person around, the boy should be fine.

"Reporting to His Majesty, Lady Consort Xian, except for Consort Ping who was injured, everyone else in Prince Rui's mansion is fine."

After hearing this, Emperor Jingyuan and Concubine Xian were finally relieved.

"How is the Huai Palace?"

"Where is Prince Chen's Mansion? Minister Xiao!"

Chen Wang's mother, Concubine Shu, and Huai Wang's maternal family members asked hurriedly at this moment, and they couldn't sit still at all.

"Your Majesty, the Huai Palace and Chen Palace suffered heavy casualties. His Royal Highness the Huai Prince and His Royal Highness the Chen Prince...died on the spot."

When Xiao Quan said this, everyone at the scene fell into shock.

"What did you say!?" Emperor Jingyuan was so shocked that he immediately sat up straight and looked at Xiao Quan with disbelief.

"impossible!"

"How can it be……"

"hiss!"

Xiao Quan had to say again, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Huai and His Royal Highness Prince Chen unfortunately died on the spot while resisting the assassin."

When Concubine Shu heard this, she couldn't bear the blow and fainted immediately.

The scene was chaotic again.

Hearing this, Emperor Jingyuan fell directly onto the bed, his face a little dazed. In an instant, he turned his head and asked sternly, "Is it the prince?!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Quan lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, I have found out that it was indeed done by the prince's men, but there are still suspicious points at the scene, and it seems that someone else was involved." When Xiao Quan said this, a chilling coldness flashed across his eyes.

Upon hearing this, everyone present immediately looked at Xiao Quan.

Emperor Jingyuan's expression became extremely cold. "My dear Xiao, you are responsible for investigating this matter. You must find out who is behind this."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Next, Emperor Jingyuan directly cleared everyone out, leaving only Xiao Quan.

……

After saying goodbye to Concubine Xian, Prince Rui went straight back to the palace.

He always felt uneasy because he didn't see with his own eyes that the people in the mansion were safe and sound.

As soon as he returned to the mansion, he summoned the head of the secret guards for questioning. After knowing everything that had happened in the mansion, Prince Rui looked a little ugly.

Chen had gone completely crazy. This was the conclusion Prince Rui came to after knowing what she had done. Also, the uncontrollable disgust in his heart made him frown. He even doubted how he could have had such a bad vision before that he would fall for such a stupid woman.

Fortunately, Ajin had that maid by his side, otherwise, he couldn’t imagine what would happen?

Suddenly, the thought of grinding Chen to dust came to his mind. If something really happened to Ajin, he couldn't imagine what he would do!

Knowing that everyone in the palace was fine, Prince Rui went directly to Yunshen Pavilion alone.

When he arrived at Yunshen Pavilion, he found the gate closed, so he had to fly over the wall to go in.

However, as soon as he arrived in the yard, he saw a figure standing in the darkness, emitting a murderous aura, but suddenly, the murderous aura dissipated like the wind.

"Greetings, Your Highness." Zhu Yun lowered her voice slightly, just loud enough for the person on the other side to hear.

Qi Heng knew in a flash that this was the maid with extraordinary martial arts skills, the same maid who had gone out with A Jin to provide disaster relief before. At that time, he only thought that she was very good at Qing Kung Fu, but he didn't expect that her other aspects were not inferior to Qing Kung Fu.

"Ah."

He then entered the room and saw Qinglian lying down and sleeping inside. He immediately asked Zhuyun to take her away. Zhuyun hesitated for a moment, then immediately picked up Qinglian and carried her out.

Qi Heng came to Qiao Rongjin's room in a blink of an eye, and saw an oil lamp emitting soft light in the room, and a small bulge on the bed. When he got closer, he saw a beautiful, well-behaved, and fair little face, who seemed to be in a dream, and her little mouth couldn't help smacking. Qi Heng looked at this scene, and his heart was unusually soft.

He took off his coat and shoes, got into the bed, pulled the person in his arms, and held her tightly in his arms, feeling the fragrance coming from the woman in his arms. Only then did his uneasy heart begin to beat steadily.

"Hmm!" Qiao Rongjin, whose sleep was disturbed, closed his eyes and twisted in dissatisfaction for a while. Seeing that struggling was useless and extremely tired, he opened his eyes with difficulty and saw that it was Qi Heng. He mumbled unclearly, obediently nestled in the man's arms, found a comfortable position and continued to sleep.

This series of actions made Qi Heng couldn't help laughing. He moved his hand around Qiao Rongjin's waist even closer and kissed the sleeping woman's fair face. Qi Heng's eyelids began to feel heavy, and finally he fell asleep while holding Qiao Rongjin in his arms.

The next day.

When Qiao Rongjin woke up, she finally remembered that she seemed to have seen Qi Heng last night. But when she reached out to touch her side, it was cold. She couldn't help but frown, a little puzzled.

"Qinglian, come in."

After a while, Qinglian came in and said, "Master, you're awake." Then she went over to help him change clothes and wash up.

"The prince came last night?"

Qinglian heard this and nodded, "Yes, Master, the prince left early in the morning."

After hearing this, Qiao Rongjin said nothing more.

The death of the prince caused an uproar in Shengjing City. Before everyone could react, it was revealed that the prince committed suicide out of fear of punishment for patricide and treason. This news shocked the world.

Then, one piece of news after another came pouring in, such as the deaths of Prince Huai and Prince Chen.

The sky in Dajing has completely changed.
