Chapter 1138 The Prince is Missing
Chen Changli felt a headache when he thought of the Eighth Prince who had been acting strange recently.
The Eighth Prince had become an enemy of him and had always been disgusted with him.
He is now looking for a secret passage to find the Eighth Prince's mansion. If this matter is not investigated thoroughly, let alone whether the Eighth Prince will jump into the Yellow River to clear himself of guilt, no one will doubt that he will be hated by the Eighth Prince.
"General Chen, where are you going? My prince wants to see you."
Chen Changli was thinking about something and was about to turn around and leave, but he didn't expect that the door of the Eighth Prince's Mansion would suddenly open, and a thin man with sunken cheeks ran up to him and stopped him.
"Why didn't the Eighth Prince go to the palace?" Seeing the thin man in front of him, Chen Changli thought countless things in his mind, and finally asked the question in his mind.
"General Chen, are you worried about my prince? Haha, don't worry, my prince is fine, nothing happened." As he said this, he made a gesture of invitation.
Chen Changming understood his meaning. After a long silence, he asked the people who followed him to find Ye Xuan, and then he stepped into the Eighth Prince's Mansion.
After many twists and turns, he soon followed the people to a remote and deserted backyard.
The eighth prince, who had been the subject of all his speculations, was now wearing shorts, rolling up his sleeves, and picking up a hoe to plant flowers.
Chen Changli deliberately observed him for a while and made sure that he was concentrating all his attention on the flowers and did not notice himself.
He didn't say anything, just waited silently.
After a quarter of an hour, the Eighth Prince finished planting the flowers, clapped his hands, stood up and turned to look at Chen Changli.
"Your patience is better than I thought. No wonder you have been through so much and yet you are still willing to serve my father till your death."
The Eighth Prince's tone was rather puzzling, but the smile on his face told otherwise.
Chen Changli looked at him and confirmed that he had no ill intentions at the moment. Instead, he sighed with a sense of melancholy and said, "If I had heard you say this before, I would have thought you were mocking me."
The Eighth Prince raised his eyebrows upon hearing this: "I do want to mock you, so that you know that if something serious happens in the future, I am the only one who can protect you, and all you have to do is help me kill my father."
When he said the last sentence, a hint of sarcasm appeared on the corner of his mouth. It felt as if it had been suppressed for a long time and suddenly burst out at this moment, which shocked Chen Changli.
"Eighth Prince, do you know what you are talking about?"
Listening to Chen Changli's words, the Eighth Prince laughed: "What am I talking about? I know very well that you don't have to make such a gesture."
"His Majesty is seriously ill. I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on for much longer." Chen Changli was silent for a while before speaking.
"You are not honest." The Eighth Prince spoke in a cold tone, but he did not say anything else. He just looked at Chen Changli meaningfully and motioned him to sit down next to him.
Chen Changli was somewhat resistant, but the Eighth Prince's attitude was quite good. He was also curious as to how the Eighth Prince dared to say such words to him, so he immediately sat down next to him.
A servant came over with a teapot and teacups and poured tea for the two of them.
The Eighth Prince took a sip from the teacup and sighed, "After the strange man appeared in Luoyang City, I deliberately hid myself."
"I reacted quickly. When more and more monsters started to wreak havoc, nothing happened to me. I ate and drank well and was very free and easy."
"It's a pity that the weirdo incident was so serious, but my father was fine. Sometimes I wonder why God favors my father so much. After so many big incidents, he was not affected at all and even survived."
"Then I realized one thing, that is, Father is not too lucky, but we are too timid to do anything to him, which makes him more and more like a tyrant."
"After thinking this through, I knew what I had to do. Originally, I wanted to go directly to the palace to find my father, but the weirdo outside hasn't been dealt with yet. No matter how brave I am, I can't gamble my life on a possibility."
"So I stayed at home and waited for news, and finally I saw that you trapped these weirdos in one place."
When the Eighth Prince said this, he looked at Chen Changli with extremely sharp eyes.
His eyes were so sharp that it seemed as if he could see clearly what Chen Changli was thinking, not giving him any chance to escape.
Chen Changli met his gaze calmly, then picked up the teacup and took a sip.
As some of the warm tea flowed down his throat, Chen Changli suddenly felt uncomfortable.
There is no doubt that the Eighth Prince wants to kill the Emperor. Chen Changli wonders why he told him?
He and the Eighth Prince don't get along. When the Eighth Prince told him what he was going to do, he didn't have time to prepare himself. How could it be what he wanted?
Besides, the Eighth Prince is not stupid, so why is he so bold? Isn’t he afraid that he will go to the Emperor to complain?
This thought flashed through Chen Changli's mind. He calmly put down the teacup and asked bluntly, "His Majesty is not in good health. If you are willing, you can stay by his side."
"Do you think I don't want to? But I'm worried that my father will guess my intention and want to kill me." The Eighth Prince said calmly, "My father is cruel. How can I be his opponent? Unless someone helps me."
The Eighth Prince said this, looking at Chen Changli with burning eyes, hinting at something.
"Your wife is right beside our father. If she had listened to you and tampered with our father's medicine, I wouldn't have to bear the name of patricide and could have sat on the throne with a clean conscience."
"That's true, but in this case, wouldn't my husband and I become scapegoats and be thrown to other princes for your venting?" Chen Changli said sarcastically.
The Eighth Prince shook his head: "I don't have such an idea. Besides, as long as you two are willing, I can also make use of you two."
Chen Changli smiled coldly: "Eighth Prince, I am not a fool. You should tell others what you are saying."
After saying that, Chen Changli stood up and was about to leave.
The Eighth Prince smiled smugly: "Is it because of the Crown Prince that you are unwilling to help me? But as far as I know, the Crown Prince disappeared in Qingzhou, and Tu Yuanzhou had already conquered Qingzhou half a month ago."
"Where did you get the information?" Chen Changli was quite shocked when he heard something related to the prince.
He stared down at the Eighth Prince, trying to detect something from his expression, but found that he looked very calm, as if he had guessed his reaction long ago.
Chen Changli's heart skipped a beat. The Eighth Prince's reaction was really strange. It seemed as if he had known about the Crown Prince for a long time.
What he told me today was also his premeditated plan.
"If the prince was really missing, Qingzhou would have sent the news instead of letting Tu Yuanzhou break through Qingzhou and let you know about it."
