The carriage galloped all the way to the Prince Regent's Mansion.

When they reached the gate of a house, Qingyun stopped the carriage, together with Qingfeng, he helped King Xiu get off the carriage, and the three of them entered the palace through the secret road.

Afterwards, let Mu Xiu drive the empty carriage and enter through the main entrance of the Prince Regent's Mansion.

Ye Lijue had returned to the study at this time.

After he finished handling the business on the table, the door of the dark room opened slowly, and Qingfeng Qingyun helped Ye Linxiu out slowly.

Ye Linxiu walked out of the dark room, and saw the person sitting in front of the desk at a glance. He was wearing a white robe embroidered with golden silk and python patterns. From a distance, he looked so noble and cold, and even his profile was extraordinary. , exuding an oppressive aura of looking down on the world.

Hearing the voice, Ye Lijue also turned around and looked up, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, he turned out to be the Eighth Emperor Brother, but he was much thinner and weaker than the person in his impression, but his eyes were still clear and bright, the noble man in his impression The person with an elegant temperament is now thin and out of shape, with a sickly pale face.

Ye Lijue got up slowly, walked up to King Xiu, and called out in a cold voice as usual, "Brother Eight Emperors."

Ye Linxiu was stunned by Ye Lijue's cold eyes, and secretly startled. He didn't expect the ninth younger brother to grow up, and his eyes were even colder. He was cold-tempered when he was young, and he didn't like to be in contact with others. Huang Zhiming had been with him for a while, but it took him a long time to make the ninth brother willing to say a few words to him, but he didn't expect that now that he has grown up, he is even colder and tighter.

Ye Lijue's cold voice interrupted Ye Linxiu's memory, and said with a smile, "Ten years in the blink of an eye, the ninth brother has also grown up."

Ye Lijue nodded lightly, and then ordered, "Qingfeng, Qingyun, help King Xiu to sit here."

The two obediently helped King Xiu to sit opposite to the prince's desk.

Ye Lijue also sat down.

Then he ordered, "Qingyun, go and bring some meals to King Xiu."

Before Qingyun moved, King Xiu hurriedly stopped Dao,

"Ninth brother, don't bother. I've eaten before, and Miss Mu's servant has taken care of me very carefully."

King Xiu thought of Miss Mu's advice, and continued,

"Ninth Brother, I owe it to Miss Mu's life-saving grace this time. I fled to her house, and she asked the servants to carry me into the house."

Ye Lijue lowered her eyes, suppressing the smile in her eyes, this must be what Yan'er taught the Eighth Emperor brother to say, since he was young, he knew that the Eighth Emperor brother was not good at lying, and when he told a lie, his face became guilty.

Ye Lijue raised her eyes, looked at his guilty expression, nodded lightly, with a serious tone,

"Brother Eight Emperors is right. Thanks to Miss Mu for saving her life, I will definitely repay you in the future."

Seeing that the ninth brother did not continue to question, King Xiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was still worried that the ninth brother would ask the bottom line.

As long as Miss Mu is not implicated and let him lie, he is also willing.

Ye Lijue saw that King Xiu was not in good spirits, showing signs of exhaustion, so he comforted him.

"Brother Eight Emperors, it's safe for you to stay in the palace now, why don't you go and rest for a while, we'll talk later."

King Xiu shook his head lightly,

"No need for the ninth brother, I will tell you the matter now, and I have completed my father's last entrustment. I am really afraid that I will not wake up after falling asleep. Then I will have no face to meet my father. I am in the iron cage. During these days, I dare not rest, for fear that if I close my eyes, I won’t be able to wake up again. Fortunately, I waited for the person who saved me that old man Chen said..."

King Xiu said that he immediately shut up. He seemed to have slipped his mouth. He carefully glanced at the ninth younger brother, and found that he was still as expressionless as before...with a calm heart. Miss clean up.

Ye Lijue saw King Xiu's expression clearly, but he was surprised, who is this old man Chen?Could it be Mr. Chen from Si Tianjian?Could it be that at that time he had predicted that the Eighth Emperor Brother would escape from the palace?

In the imperial palace, only his divination skills are unmatched. It seems that he will have to inquire about Brother Eight Emperor in detail later.

At this time, Qingyun brought a cup of tea and put it in front of King Xiu, and then brought a teapot, and filled the prince's cup to seventy percent full.

Then Qingfeng Qingyun withdrew and stood guard outside the study door to prevent outsiders from disturbing her.

Ye Lijue spoke coldly, with a rare gentle tone, "Brother Eight Emperors, don't worry, drink a cup of tea first, and we'll talk slowly."

King Xiu picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then gently placed the teacup on the table. His manner was noble and elegant, and his movements were like flowing water. Even if he had been locked up for many years, the noble temperament engraved in his bones would not be easily erased.

Ye Linxiu felt much more comfortable in his body. Looking at the ninth younger brother opposite, his eyes were a little empty, as if he was recalling the scene back then, and then he opened his mouth slowly,

"More than ten years ago, the father knew that the end was approaching, so he called all the princes one by one, sent all the maids and eunuchs in the dormitory, and let the princes enter the dormitory one by one to listen to his dying words,

When it was my turn to enter the dormitory, my father gave me something and asked me to keep it well, and told me to announce this edict to the world after the fourth brother passed away. After the emperor asked me to go back to the mansion, I can check it myself, and told me to hide it well. I must not let this thing fall into the hands of others. This is a major matter related to the country. If this thing is lost, the Purple Holy Kingdom will fall into others At the same time, the common people of the Li people will also be in dire straits, and the entire Zisheng Council is in dire straits. I was extremely shocked at the time, and I knew that this will was of great importance. In the end, my father told me to protect you secretly if I have the ability. "

Having said this, Ye Linxiu felt ashamed in his eyes,

"Who knew that I was imprisoned, and how could I protect you secretly."

Ye Lijue narrowed his eyes, he had an impression of his father announcing the princes into the bedroom before his death,

His father just told him that after he died, let him quickly go to the military camp to practice, leaving the palace is a place of wrongdoing, and his father had already arranged everything for him. The token capable of commanding the Red Forest Army was handed over to him.

Ye Lijue withdrew her thoughts, glanced at King Xiu's ashamed expression, and said,

"Brother Eight Emperors, you don't need to blame yourself for the past, just keep talking."

Ye Linxiu withdrew his emotions and continued to speak slowly,

"I hid the edict in my sleeve pocket. After I left my father's bedroom, I quickly returned to the palace. After returning to the study, I sent out all the guards. I came back to check the content of the edict as my father ordered. I was so shocked that it said, it said..."

Ye Linxiu's eyes widened slightly, staring at Ye Lijue steadfastly.

Ye Lijue had a faint guess, but didn't say anything, just waiting for Ye Linxiu to speak out.

Ye Linxiu suddenly leaned forward, lowered his voice, and said in a low voice, "It's written, after the fourth brother dies, let the ninth brother inherit the throne."
