Yewei Prince's Mansion is no small matter. But to grasp the handle, the key is to get the stolen goods.
It was night, when Huo Xu gave an order to let the carefully selected soldiers break into the Prince's Mansion, he had already wiped away the last hesitation in his heart...
Huo Du pushed his wheelchair slowly to the front yard, and saw that the guards in the house and Huo Xu's soldiers were already at a stalemate, he hooked his lips and laughed—
"Brother Three Emperors came to visit late at night, this is...?"
Most of the scarlet nightgown was covered by the moon white cotton cloak, and only a little of the front of the shirt was revealed, making his skin even whiter in the night.
Huo Xu hated Huo Du's calm appearance the most, as if he didn't care about anything. He sneered in his heart, but there was a gentle smile on his face: "It is important to disturb the emperor late at night. I heard that the emperor captured a remnant of Lidi yesterday, but he has not reported it to his father. Come and confirm, I think the emperor won't do such a stupid thing, right?"
Hearing this, Huo Du smiled and said, "Just because of the groundless rumors, the emperor's younger brother led troops into Gu's mansion. Have you ever thought about the consequences of trespassing in the Prince's mansion?"
Although the voice was not loud, the cold tone came into Huo Xu's ears, which still made his heart sink by three points. But he thought that the reason why Huo Du was so unscrupulous was that he thought he couldn't find the secret prison in the Prince's Mansion
But now, he has a secret letter from Zhizhi...
Thinking of this, my heart is even more confident.
"I also ask the imperial brother for permission. This move is also for the sake of the imperial brother. If it is really a misunderstanding, it can also save the imperial brother from rumors."
"Okay." Huo Du raised his eyelids, glanced at him lazily, then waved his hand, signaling the guards to make way, "Third Emperor Brother slowly search."
Such a casual gesture made Huo Xu even more incomprehensible. He set his eyes on Huo Du's stump leg, and gritted his back molars—
He is obviously a waste person, but he has never seen any inferiority complex on his face. On the contrary, a broken leg seemed to him something remarkable.
Why does he always look arrogant
Why was he born a prince
Why!
Huo Xu stared at his stump leg, with a hint of remorse in his expression—
He shouldn't be soft-hearted back then, he should have both his legs crippled.
No, it should have ended him directly then!
Looking up, Huo Xu saw that the guards standing around Huo Du could spread out, and they really made way for him...
Retreat as advance, right? Want to use this to attack his psychological defense
dream.
"Then I will disturb the emperor." Huo Xu took two steps forward, and then ordered in a deep voice without hesitation: "Search for me—"
The elite soldiers walked in neatly along the narrow road that was vacated. According to Huo Xu's instructions before departure, a small group of people scattered and searched at will...
The rest of the troops were concentrated and rushed towards the East Court!
Huo Xu walked at the end, quietly waiting for the government soldiers to find the secret prison deep in the east courtyard according to the instructions given by Zhizhi's letter.
Not long after, the front of the government soldiers came hurriedly—
"His Royal Highness, there is a discovery! There is indeed a secret prison in the East Courtyard."
The big stone in his heart fell to the ground, and Huo Xu followed the soldiers of the government into the dark passage of the secret prison with confidence.
There was a faint smell of blood floating in the dark secret prison, and the gloomy feeling became stronger the further down you went. Finally, walking down to the bottom, in the empty cell, there was only a weak man with disheveled hair tied up.
Judging from the figure, it is very similar to Fu Xian.
Huo Xu smiled happily, and sent someone to pull out his hair to take a closer look—
Not Fu Xian!
Really just an ordinary prisoner.
Huo Xu was shocked—
Counted!
"Withdraw!" The footsteps turned sharply, and Huo Xu hurried up.
It was only half a moment before he entered the secret prison to search, but the sky seemed to change outside...
Except for the few government soldiers who followed him to the secret prison, the rest of the people who were waiting on the top were all limply lying on the ground at this moment, not knowing whether they were alive or dead. The originally vulnerable guards of the Prince's Mansion had long since disappeared. And standing beside Huo Du, surrounded by layers of stern Jingwei...
Victory is decided.
"What? Brother Three Emperors didn't find an old friend?" Huo Du smiled, playing with the purple stone in his hand.
Huo Xu still wanted to struggle, he tried his best to keep his face calm and calm his tone, "Since it's a misunderstanding, the younger brother will not bother the emperor."
As soon as he finished speaking, the soldiers standing beside him slanted and fell straight to the ground...
In an instant, fear climbed all over his body. Only then did Huo Xu remember that the dark guards who had been sent to the Prince's Mansion to inquire in the past had never survived. He looked up at the dark night sky, the moon was still bright just now, and now even the stars were covered by thick clouds.
Is he going to die here today
"Brother Axu, the person who robbed the carriage yesterday was Brother Fu Xian, and now he is imprisoned in the East Courtyard of the Prince's Mansion..." Huo Du blankly recited the contents of the secret letter, and then said with interest. Looking at Huo Xu's unpredictable expression.
"You!" Huo Xu was suddenly dizzy, and after barely standing still, he covered his aching heart and gritted his teeth: "You set up a situation to harm me!"
There was no mistake in the handwriting on the letter, but Huo Du knew all about it... This showed that Huo Du had already discovered Zhizhi's dealings with him. I don't know what method he used to force Zhizhi to write this letter...
Unable to hold back the darkening in front of his eyes, Huo Xu abruptly knelt on the ground. Before he lost consciousness, he frowned, worried about Lezhi's current situation—
Even if he can't get out of the Prince's Mansion today, he doesn't care. When he was on the verge of death, he realized that the only thing he could not let go was the branches.
"It's dealt with."
The dark guard got the order and moved quickly to drag away all the people who fell on the ground. Not long after, only Huo Xu was left, lying quietly on the cold ground.
Only then did a magnificent shadow hidden in the dark come out. He walked quickly to Huo Du's side, and naturally tugged at the cloth on his shoulders, and asked in a low voice, "He really passed out?"
"It's the same as death." Huo Du said leisurely, "You can't wake up even if you kick both feet."
It was originally a joke, but Le Zhi took it seriously. She took a few steps forward, and tentatively touched Huo Xu's arm with the toe of her boot. Seeing that he really didn't respond, she took the courage and kicked him in the side of the face...
This look fell into Huo Du's eyes, and he couldn't help but feel a little joy.
I missed the way she killed people before, but seeing her kicking people today is really—
Damn good looking.
But he still pushed the wheelchair over, held her wrist, and asked, "Really don't kill? It's too late to change his mind now."
After a moment of silence, Le Zhi shook his head, glanced at the person on the ground again, and smiled: "It's no fun to kill."
Huo Du looked at her face with interest, and was shocked to realize that the words she said were becoming more and more like him. So, he also imitated her just now, stretched out one foot and kicked Huo Xu's face on the other side.
Sure enough, it's interesting.
However, he quickly retracted his foot and frowned—
dirty.
When Huo Xu opened his eyes again, he met Huo Changyun's angry eyes.
Ignoring the pain coming from his cheeks, Huo Xu quickly got up and knelt down. He was shocked to realize that he was in the imperial study...
"Breaking into the prince's mansion without authorization, intending to murder the prince of the dynasty." Huo Changyun threw a stack of paper at Huo Xu, "After the defeat, the soldiers of the government took poison to commit suicide, and he himself took the medicine of fake death, in an attempt to beat him up and frame the prince!"
After a pause, Huo Changyun suddenly laughed, but his tone was cold, "Okay, what a King Jingxian! You are really my good son!"
Huo Xu, who had just woken up from a coma, had no idea what he was thinking. He stared at Huo Changyun in a daze, with doubts on his face—
What is the father saying
In addition to trespassing in the Prince's Mansion, which of the piles behind him did he make
Huo Xu glared angrily at Huo Du, who was standing beside him, and was amazed at his shamelessness!
"It's true that Erchen trespassed into the Prince's Mansion, but Erchen just went to search for Da Li's remnants, and had no intention of murdering the emperor's brother. Please also ask the father and emperor to investigate!"
"Where is the remnant of Da Li?" Huo Changyun snorted coldly, "How dare you make a quibble! With such a virtue, how can it match the word Jingxian!"
Huo Xu glanced down at the paper on the ground, he picked it up and looked at it, and his heart was shocked. He carefully selected the soldiers of the government, and they all signed the trumped-up confessions and detained them...
The defeat is set, and he lost completely.
"Come here, pass on my will, abolish the title of the third prince Huo Xu Jingxian, from today onwards, the third prince will be confined to the house, and you can't come without an edict..."
Huo Xu couldn't hear what he said later, his body and mind were exhausted and he fell into a coma in the imperial study. Even the little eunuchs didn't know that they were carrying him back to the mansion...
The imperial study finally became quiet again. Huo Changyun watched Huo Du hesitate to speak, but in the end he didn't say anything, and waved him to step back.
In today's matter, he can see clearly who is right and who is wrong. But right or wrong doesn't matter, it matters whether you win or lose.
What Huo Changyun needed was a most capable son. Whether it was Huo Du, Huo Xu, Huo Xiang, or the young princes, he only wanted the most powerful son.
Ruthless, ruthless, it doesn't matter. Only in this way can he give Daqi to him with confidence, and fulfill his wish to unify the five kingdoms and three tribes for him after his death...
Thinking of this, Huo Changyun got up and walked into the inner room of the imperial study, where there was a sand table, and the flags of the five kingdoms and three tribes were planted on their respective territories.
It's just that the flag of Dali has been replaced with a flag with the word Qi, and another territory that has been replaced with the flag of Daqi is—
Shengnuo tribe.
His eyes darkened, and Huo Changyun's heart was a little suffocated, but he tried his best to ignore this uncomfortable feeling. Then turn your greedy eyes to the remaining Three Kingdoms and Two Tribes...
He has to be faster.
The sun is full of sunshine, and the taste of the year is getting heavier.
Le Zhi sat in the yard, looking at the figures of the people in the house busy buying New Year's goods, and couldn't help but curl his lips. Fang Caili Yao had already told her about Huo Xu's abolition, and after a while, Huo Du would be returning home soon.
Yet another... a battle of victory.
Huo Xu was grounded, so for a long time, she would not have to see his disgusting face again. And while taking advantage of this time, she can help her sister to take care of her body... Also, she is going to send Xia Ming and A Chan to find the whereabouts of her sister-in-law and Yu'er.
At this time, Linyue passed through the yard holding boxes of various sizes. When Le Zhi saw her, his heart moved, and he suddenly remembered something, and called out to her.
"Master, is there anything you want to tell Linyue?"
Lin Yue put the box in her hand on the stone table and asked after a few breaths. But Cola Branch took her hand, made her sit down, and said in a low voice: "The medicine you bought at Yongchun Hall last time... didn't work very well..."
Le Zhi thought about it again and again, and felt that this matter still had to be explained to Lin Yue. First, she bought the reminders and medicines last time, and secondly, she was smart enough to do this.
"what?"
Lin Yue was stunned. After all, she was a girl who had not yet left the cabinet. She couldn't help but blushed. "The doctor from Yongchun Hall said that the medicine works best... Your Highness, he..."
Still not working
For some reason, Le Zhi's heart was a little blocked. She shook her head lightly, and solemnly instructed: "You go and ask again, if there is any milder medicinal herbs or prescriptions, it is best to take care of it slowly."
"Yeah!" Lin Yue nodded heavily
When he stood up, his hands hanging by his side clenched into fists, Lin Yue secretly swore—
She will definitely do this for her master!
He lifted his legs and walked towards the gate, until he was about to step out of the house, and he met Huo Du who was returning to the house... Apart from the serenity and respect when he saw His Royal Highness in the past, Lin Yue still felt in his heart at this time. One more regret.
She bowed her body respectfully and hurried towards Yongchuntang...
Huo Du, who didn't fully recognize the maids in the house, had a vague impression of the maids serving Le Zhi. Therefore, when he entered the mansion, he glanced at Lin Yue who was saluting.
At this glance, he happened to see her eyes.
- Strange eyes.
He frowned subconsciously, and an unpleasant emotion rose in his heart for no reason.
