"Long live Lord, please calm down! If you kill Prince Kang and the Crown Prince at the same time, wouldn't that kill the Queen Mother?" Zhao Ruhai was so busy trying to comfort him that he kept kowtowing and said, "Long live Lord Ming Jian! I heard that the Queen Mother was in Shoukang The palace has fainted from crying three times! The whole hospital is crazy now, please calm down! The prince is also his biological son after all!
"If I hadn't taken care of the Queen Mother, would I have been waiting for this moment?" Lu Mingwei sat on the soft couch, staring at his eyes and panting, and then said after a while, "But I can't be easily plotted by others for so many years."
Zhao Ruhai looked at Lu Mingwei's gloomy face and did not dare to say anything. He lowered his head and gently cleaned up the mess on the ground.

Yanxi Palace.
Concubine Wan Gui's mood has been extremely good these past two days. Although the Queen Mother is ill, she has to go to Shoukang Palace every day to ask for medical treatment, which is very hard, but this can't stop her good mood. She even washed her hands herself when she had free time today. After making soup, he summoned his son, Prince Bao, Lu Zhihe, to have lunch with him.
"I still don't believe it. The prince dares to hide weapons and train warriors privately." Lu Zhihe sighed while eating the walnut cake made by Concubine Wan Gui. "Normally, the prince is so humble, docile and cautious. It's incredible. Like a temperless lamb, tsk tsk tsk, now it seems that this is really something that cannot be measured by appearances. "
"With a scheming mother like the Queen, how can it be possible to really raise a humble and gentle prince?" Concubine Wan Gui served her son a bowl of Guihe Longevity Soup and continued, "But it's a coincidence. Soon, the prince took advantage of the Lantern Festival to secretly go out to Beijing to meet with his samurai. However, they happened to catch up with Prince Kang's traitor who wanted to assassinate the prince in the suburbs of Beijing. Later, he happened to be captured by the patrol camp, which not only exposed Prince Kang. His treacherous thoughts even revealed the prince's scandal. This is really not as good as God's calculations. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, it saves us a lot of effort and skill. "
Lu Zhihe couldn't help but nod: "What the mother-in-law said is exactly what I said. Although my father is protecting the prince and has not publicized the prince's scandals, it is obvious that he has despised the prince, and deposing him is a matter of immediate concern. Come on, maybe one day the East Palace accidentally uses fire and burns several people to death."
