But he didn't expect that such a situation would result, and in the end he would harm the eighth princess and the emperor's eldest grandson.

The emperor never mentioned these things to the queen mother, but because the queen mother was old, the emperor was worried that she would be irritated when she heard about it.

But he never imagined that the old man's friendship with the eighth princess would no longer be the same as before.

He never expected that Lao Ba would choose Rong Jiao between Rong Jiao and the Eighth Princess.

After all, the eighth princess was a couple who shared his adversities together, while Rong Jiao was nothing more than a concubine.

Sure enough, he still looked up to Lao Ba.From beginning to end, he was a fool!

Thinking of his eighth son, the emperor couldn't help cursing in his heart.

The Eighth Prince who was involved in this matter was still in the study looking at the letters sent by Sima Lian some time ago. When he saw that Prince Ling had actually conducted a large-scale survey in An County, the Eighth Prince frowned.

There are many people under him who are encircling land in An County. If King Ling follows the clues to find their people, I am afraid there will be even greater trouble.

The Eighth Prince couldn't come up with a countermeasure for a long time, but he couldn't help but think of General Wang's power.

If he could have Old General Wang's help, maybe he wouldn't have to care so much about these civil servants.

If they still want to gain some merit in front of him, they will not push these things to him, but solve them for him in advance.

Thinking of the Wang family, the Eighth Prince inevitably thought of the Eighth Princess.

No, she is the former eighth princess.

Thinking of this, the Eighth Prince couldn't help but tighten his fingers a little.

He always felt that Wang Min and he were in love with each other, and they almost broke off the relationship with his parents because of him.

Now it was just a matter of going to General Wang and saying a word, but he didn't expect Wang Min to refuse.

As for the matter of union and separation, the Eighth Prince still doesn't want to think about it.

It even felt that Wang Min's departure was only temporary.She just wanted to teach Rong Jiao a lesson, and she would always come back in the future.

Maybe when he takes that position in the future, Wang Min will come back.

But now two or three days have passed, and he has not heard any movement from the Eighth Prince's Mansion, which makes him unable to calm down.

Just when the Eighth Prince was upset, a servant's voice sounded outside the door.

"Your Majesty, Eunuch Liao from the palace is here."

After Manager Li left, Wang San was driven away by the Eighth Prince again.Now, not only are there no stewards in the Overlord's Mansion, but even the people serving around the Eighth Prince himself are gone.

Now this boy is just the person who served in the study before.

It was also because this person was familiar with the study environment that the Eighth Prince allowed him to serve him.

However, this strange voice still made the Eighth Prince feel sad for a while.

If it had been the past when Manager Li was guarding the door, Manager Li would definitely have informed him of the intention and behavior of the person coming from the palace.

Now these reminders are long gone, and all that remains are dry reports.

"Eighth Prince, Your Majesty has invited me, and please come to the palace as soon as possible."

Liao Cheng bowed respectfully to the Eighth Prince without any courtesy, but directly stated his intention.

Now that the emperor and the queen mother were waiting in Cining Palace, he did not dare to delay.

When the Eighth Prince heard this, he couldn't help but narrowed his eyes.

"What do you want your father to do with me?"

"This old slave doesn't know either. The prince may know it when he enters the palace."

Seeing that Liao Cheng had no intention of revealing it, the Eighth Prince did not force it. He responded, resisted the servant again, and then followed Liao Cheng into the palace.

Rong Jiao was originally upset because of Biyun's disappearance today, but now she heard that the Eighth Prince was called into the palace by the emperor.For some reason, her heart suddenly skipped a beat, and a bad premonition came out of her.

"Did the prince say anything before he left?"

The maid who was waiting beside her took a cautious look at Rong Jiao and found that Rong Jiao showed no signs of anger, and couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Majesty didn't say anything, but the person who came to invite you to the palace today is Eunuch Liao who is by your Majesty's side."

As soon as the maid finished speaking, Rong Jiao stood up.

"What? Liao Cheng came in person?"

The maid was startled and quickly knelt on the ground.

"Back to the princess, it is indeed Eunuch Liao who came in person. I dare not hide it."

Rong Jiao's hands and fingers suddenly tightened a bit, and her face turned a little pale.

After a long while, he said: "Ask someone to guard the door. If there is any unusual movement, ask someone to report it as soon as possible."

The maid responded and left in a hurry.

"Your Majesty, the Eighth Prince is here."

In Cining Palace, Liao Cheng stepped forward to report.

The emperor snorted coldly, "Let him get out!"

"The sons and ministers attend the meeting of the father and the emperor, and meet the emperor's grandmother."

Seeing that Xuanyuan Jin still looked sanctimonious, the emperor's expression suddenly turned cold.

"Your Majesty!"

Xuanyuan Jin was startled, but still knelt down honestly.

"You know what's wrong?"

The emperor asked coldly.

The Eighth Prince frowned and carefully considered what he had done these days, but he never thought that what he had done during this time could offend the emperor.

Even if it was an matter in An County, the emperor probably wouldn't know that clearly before Prince Ling came back from An County.

What's more, if you want to investigate the affairs of Anxian County, you can at most find the civil servants in the court, but he himself has no involvement.

"Father, my son doesn't know."

Xuanyuan Jin's words made the emperor suddenly look embarrassed.

"Damn things!"

The tea cup in the emperor's hand hit Xuanyuan Jin on the head. The eighth prince did not avoid it, but suffered the blow.

Seeing Xuanyuan Jin kneeling there with her back still straight, the Queen Mother couldn't help but sigh.

Although Rong Jiao used his favor to do those evil things, Rong Jiao did these things behind Xuanyuan Jin's back.

Now that she was questioning him inexplicably, Xuanyuan Jin probably didn't know where she went wrong.

"Emperor, that's enough. Rong Jiao did this behind his back. He doesn't know anything yet. It's useless for you to ask him."

How come the emperor didn't know this, but seeing Xuanyuan Jin kneeling in front of him like this, he couldn't help but feel angry in his heart.

Xuanyuan Jin really didn't know what happened, but when he saw the maid kneeling not far away, he suddenly felt that things might be a little beyond his expectation.

He had also met Biyun before in Rong Jiao's yard.

But now Biyun was kneeling in Cining Palace, and he immediately guessed that the matter was probably related to Rong Jiao.

Thinking of the things Rong Jiao did behind his back, Xuanyuan Jin suddenly felt worried.

"Biyun, tell me everything you know."

The Queen Mother glanced at Biyun who was kneeling on the ground and signaled her to inform the Eighth Prince about the matter.

Biyun did not dare to hide anything and told everything she knew.

The Eighth Prince looked a little dazed as he listened to Biyun's words. He even wondered if he had heard wrongly.
