Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space

The prince became suspicious of Xia Minglan and asked the secret guard to investigate her, and soon found out something.

That is, Xia Minglan admired King Duan when she was in the boudoir and wanted to marry him. Later, she was persuaded by King Duan to enter the East Palace and become the prince's concubine.

She was willing to become the prince's concubine, but she just wanted to help King Duan deal with the prince.

Less than two years after she entered the East Palace, she seemed to be trying to seduce the prince, making him love her and pamper her even more.

It's a pity that the prince and the princess have a good relationship. She tried her best to get more favor from the prince.

Seeing that Prince Duan was becoming more and more indifferent to her, Xia Minglan decided to poison the princess to death in order to make her beloved Prince Duan look at her more.

The person who cooperated with her in poisoning was Concubine Li, and the reason why the two of them acted so smoothly was because of Grandma Zhang's youngest daughter, Qing Ling, the most trusted maid of the Crown Princess, who turned a blind eye to their actions.

However, the Crown Princess was bewitched by De Fei's people a few years ago, and the poison given by Xia Minglan was swallowed up by the beetles.

This is also the reason why the Crown Princess became extremely ill in a short period of time.

"Prince Duan, Concubine De." The prince spent half a day finding out the result and was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

"Your Highness, let your Majesty decide this matter." Chen Changli never expected that the East Palace would cause so many things at once.

He stayed in the East Palace to help the prince investigate these things, and his outlook was almost shattered by the twists and turns involved.

If he hadn't thought that the prince was his friend and the queen was still fainting here, he would have really wanted to go to Wan Shufang to complain about how mean the fight between these concubines and the prince was.

"Before I investigated Xia Minglan, I asked Cai Dingsheng to present the results of the interrogation to my father. I think it won't be long before my father will send Eunuch Su here."

The prince kneaded his brows to suppress the anger rising in his heart, and then looked at Chen Changli.

Seeing his calm expression, he seemed not to think that what happened in the East Palace was too ridiculous at all. He was too incompetent as the prince, and the prince had mixed feelings in his heart.

"Chen Changli, is Gu incompetent?" The prince's face showed a look of confusion, "I never thought that the concubines in the harem would attack the crown prince, nor did I think that Gu's concubine would fall in love with Gu's brother. I purposely appeared in front of Gu to please Gu."

"I never thought that the princess's illness was not a disease, but someone who had harmed her. One after another, people were pulled out, and the involvement became wider and wider."

"If my father knew that the East Palace was in such chaos, he would definitely feel that Gu was incompetent. Maybe he would also think that this was a good opportunity to directly dethrone Gu's position as crown prince."

When talking about being deposed, the prince's expression was very calm, so calm that there was no sadness, no joy, no ripples.

Chen Changli raised his eyes and glanced at him, confirming that he was at a loss at this moment.

Thinking of Xia Minglan and Li Concubine poisoning the Crown Princess, and Concubine De poisoning the Crown Princess, Lin Concubine obviously knew something, but she didn't say anything. Instead, she wanted to confirm whether the Crown Princess was dead, and then followed the trend to Wan Shufang. The results of the investigation throw dirty water on the head.

Chen Changli felt that if he were in the position of the prince, once he knew the truth, he would be as confused as him.

He couldn't help but look at the prince with sympathy and sighed secretly in his heart. In this position, the prince was a natural target.

The concubines and princes in the harem all regard him as his enemy. If he doesn't try his best to suppress these people, his end will definitely not be any better.

The emperor is already old now. Although he still has some sense, as time goes by, no one is sure whether he will suddenly become old and confused.

What's more, King Duan did get the emperor's favor. Otherwise, King Duan would not have had the courage to scheme against the prince like this.

"His Royal Highness is the crown prince of a country. It is related to the country's foundation. Even if His Majesty knew about the affairs of the East Palace, he would never have such thoughts at this moment."

"Besides, His Highness has been wronged this time, and His Majesty is not confused. He will definitely understand this and find a way to compensate you."

Chen Changli comforted the prince from this aspect, and then said: "Empress De Fei attacked the prince a few years ago. I think she had another purpose."

"As for Xia Minglan, she is entirely because of Prince Duan, so if His Majesty comes to ask about what happened in the East Palace today, His Highness might as well point the finger directly at Prince Duan."

After all, Concubine De was the emperor's concubine and the prince's concubine.

No matter what her purpose was for using such methods to harm the Crown Princess, she represented the emperor's face.

As the son of the emperor, it was naturally impossible for the prince to directly confront the person next to the emperor.

Chen Changli thought for a moment and asked the prince to mention King Duan.

Regarding the issue of Concubine De, it was impossible for the emperor to really make the prince suffer the loss of being dumb.

He would definitely do something to cause Concubine De to bleed profusely, and then compensate the Crown Prince.

"I understand what you mean." The prince understood immediately and thought that the emperor's favorite was Concubine De, followed by Concubine Xue who came from a good family.

He couldn't help but look a little depressed. It was obvious that the Queen's serious illness had given him a big blow.

He could no longer look at the emperor's cold attitude towards the queen with the same eyes as before.

"Your wife is in Nan Xinyuan. It's getting late now. You should go find your wife."

The prince filtered some things about the queen in his mind, and felt more and more that the queen was hiding something important from him.

This incident was also the fundamental reason why the emperor's attitude toward him was somewhat subtle.

He decided to wait until all the matters in the East Palace were settled, then go inquire about these things, and then make some plans.

After asking for some ideas, the prince directly ordered Xia Minglan and Concubine Li to be arrested, and then interrogated all the other maids and eunuchs involved.

After receiving their confessions, the Crown Prince arrested Nanny Zhang's youngest daughter Qing Ling for interrogation: "The Crown Princess has always regarded you as her own sister, and also wants to find a good family for you to marry. Why do you know that there is someone He wanted to harm the Crown Princess, but he didn't warn her, and instead watched others harm her with cold eyes."

"Mama Zhang is your mother, and the Crown Princess is also your sister. How can you be so cruel?"

Qing Ling was a rather beautiful woman. As soon as she was caught and saw the prince with a frosty face, she knew that her affairs had been exposed.

She knelt down with a plop: "I know my mistake, please forgive me."

The prince's voice was indifferent and without warmth: "Spare you? The prince is still unconscious. How can you let me spare you?"

Suppressing his anger, the prince stared at her with his sharp eyes and asked sternly: "Qing Ling, why did you do this to the princess? Who instigated you to do this? Prince Duan or Concubine De!"
