Although I knew that Chunfeng had returned safely, I still couldn't show it or let anyone notice it.
So Chunfeng Niang and Chun Yu simply stayed behind closed doors, announcing to the public that Chunfeng Niang fell ill because of excessive worry, and Chun Yu naturally would not go out because she was taking care of her mother.
At the same time, Baili Mochen secretly sent people to strengthen the protection of Mingzhu Mansion to avoid any accidents in the subsequent turmoil.
"Thank you!" Back at the inn, Chunfeng looked at Baili Mochen and said movedly.
"Fool, thank you for what!" Baili Mochen said lovingly, touching Chunfeng's face.
"Thank you for thinking about me and my family!" Chunfeng raised the corners of his lips and said sweetly.
"Your family is my family. Isn't it natural to consider your own family? How can a family say thank you?"
Baili Mochen blew Chunfeng's nose, looked at her little face, and said with tenderness in his eyes.
"Yeah! Let's not talk anymore, we are a family!" Chunfeng nodded vigorously and leaned into his arms and said.
In fact, he is the one who really wants to say thank you, but he feels that actions are always more tangible than words, so he might as well express it with actions!
Three days later, news came from the people at the Royal Hunting Ground!
King Yao has been found!
But unfortunately, people have died!
As soon as this news came out, it can be said that the whole capital was filled with joy and sorrow.
The third prince was undoubtedly the happiest person. Of course, Bailihe, who was so excited, did not forget to verify this.
After sending people several times to inquire and verify, it was finally confirmed that the body found was Baili Mochen, and he felt relieved.
Looking at the jade pendants and royal costumes on the table, Bailihe couldn't help but laugh up at the sky.
"Hahaha... Hahaha! My dear fifth brother, I didn't expect that you would die under this Wuwang Cliff after a lifetime of glory. What a pity!"
Bailihe said ridiculous words, but his face was full of pride. After all his efforts, he finally got rid of this thorn in his side and his flesh!
It felt so comfortable. Tomorrow, the world would be his Bailihe's!
"Let's go to Huaqing Palace!" Bailihe stood up suddenly, grabbed the things on the table, and said to the entourage behind him.
Bailihe came to Huaqing Palace with a team of sword-wielding guards and stood in front of the emperor in an aggressive manner.
"Father, my son is here to see you!" Bailihe bowed and said.
"You!" The emperor wanted to say something, but he didn't say it. He just glared at Bailihe angrily.
"Father, why are you so excited? Could it be that you already know the news that the fifth brother's body has been found?" Bailihe said hypocritically.
"You, what did you say?" The emperor was lying on the bed. He was shocked when he heard this. He tried hard to get up, but he couldn't move. He could only stretch his neck and his face turned red with excitement.
"Father, don't be excited. I know that you have always preferred your fifth brother, but now that your fifth brother is gone, you still have to take care of your health."
Bailihe continued, his seemingly caring words were actually irritating the emperor.
"No, I don't believe it!" The emperor opened his eyes wide and said in disbelief.
"Father, this is the relic of the fifth brother, take a look!" Baili He said, taking out the jade pendant in his hand and a piece of cloth torn from Baili Mochen's exclusive uniform. Pass it to the prince.
Bailihe's downcast eyes were full of pride, but the moment he saw the jade pendant and the cloth, the emperor's flushed face was filled with tears, which was sad to see.
But in Bailihe's eyes, it was full of irony!
Huh, after all, it’s just a preference. I just saw something like this, but I don’t know what it’s like to see the body!
I just don’t know if I’ll have a chance to see it again!
"Father, something has happened to my fifth brother now. You are lying in bed unable to move and cannot take care of political affairs. If you don't go, leave it to your son to take care of it for you!" Bailihe endured the jealousy and anger in his heart. Angry and good-tempered, he said to the emperor.
"Aren't you always in charge? Why do you need to ask me?" The emperor glanced at Bailihe and said angrily.
Are you so impatient? He's not dead yet! The emperor felt extremely sad.
"Father, I want you to give me a clear and honest identity, isn't it?" Bailihe continued to smile.
"You also know that you are not right now, and you can do things that harm your brothers and sisters, so why are you afraid of reputation? I know what you want, tell you, if you want me to issue an edict to pass the throne to you, I will never Maybe you've given up on this idea!"
The emperor lay on the bed, spitting and angrily.
"Smelly old man, don't give me a toast or drink as a penalty! Look at yourself like this now, how should you govern the world? Lao Wu is dead! Who else can you count on? I know that you have always been partial to Lao Wu and Lao Qi, and even Other princes, why can't you see something good about me? I am also your son, and you are so partial to Lao Wu because he has a good mother and concubine, so what about us? ? I will get this summons today whether you establish it or not! Don’t think that I can’t do anything if you don’t establish it. Don’t force me to be cruel to you! "
Bailihe roared angrily, accusing him of the unfair treatment he had received over the years!
They were both princes and grew up together, but Bailihe had never seen his father smile sincerely in front of him.
That kind of love and care between father and son has only appeared in Baili Mochen. He wanted to ask his father for some love, but he was always scorned and looked at coldly.
He thought that his father didn't like him because he wasn't good enough, so he studied hard, learned martial arts, and the art of war. There was nothing he didn't study hard.
But no matter how hard he tried, there was always Baili Mochen weighing on him. He could never surpass him, and he could never get his father's attention!
So he hated it. Even though he knew that raising private soldiers was a capital crime, he did it just so that one day he could prove that he was no worse than Lao Wu.
In order for the emperor to see it, he also had an equally outstanding son.
"No, you are not my son. My son will not be so cruel and unscrupulous! You are just a bastard born from having sex with others before your mother and concubine entered the palace. If I had known this, I should not have let you If you are still alive today, when your mother-in-law gave birth to you, I should have killed you with one knife!"
Facing Bailihe's hysteria, the emperor seemed particularly calm. Seeing the helpless self-mockery in Bailihe's eyes, the emperor spoke calmly.
"What did you say? Say it again!" After hearing what the emperor said, Bailihe's eyes widened and he looked at the emperor in disbelief. He rushed forward and grabbed his collar and shouted.
"Everything that happened in the past was because of your mother-in-law. If you want to blame you, blame her! I shouldn't have tolerated adultery. I raised you up and let you do wrong. I was also wrong!"
Seeing Bailihe's excited look, the emperor didn't panic or get angry. He just spoke calmly, as if he was stating a fact.
