The second prince is the one most likely to ascend the throne among the many princes.

Although His Highness the Crown Prince has been with the Emperor for the longest time and is also the Emperor's first son, His Highness the Crown Prince was not born from the current Queen, so the title of the Crown Prince is weaker.

Once the former queen died, there was no support force. Except for some old Confucian scholars who only knew how to study and still insisted on standing up, there was not much support from the court.

The second prince is different.

As the first son born to the current queen, he had been praised by the emperor many times when he was a boy. Although he did not have the title of prince, he had an independent fiefdom and even had a reputation for being intelligent.

The emperor once sent the second prince to do several things, and he did them very well. Even the veterans in the court said that the second prince behaved in a sophisticated manner and had the style of the emperor back then.

This compliment is not given casually.

This subcategory has always been the key for emperors to choose their successors.

If the emperor feels that the second prince has the same demeanor as he did back then, he might find a time to give the position of prince to the second prince.

It was precisely because of this that the other princes regarded the second prince as a thorn in their side and a thorn in their flesh.

As long as the second prince does not fall, no other prince will have a chance.

The housekeeper who was holding an umbrella heard that the sixth prince's first question was about the second prince. He glanced around subconsciously, and then whispered beside the sixth prince:

"The spy said that it was not the blind man that the second prince invited at the beginning, but that blind man used some means to spread the word to the second prince's ears, and then the second prince went out to greet him in person."

"After welcoming the blind man into the palace, the second prince immediately kicked out all the servants and chatted with the blind man alone for a long time."

"Our spies didn't dare to get too close. They could only barely hear that there seemed to be a discussion in the room about Shopkeeper Li, the richest man in the capital."

"At the beginning, the two of them spoke too quietly and couldn't hear what they said at all. Later, I heard the blind man say that if you dare to kill me, my junior brother will immediately tell the world the news."

"He shouted quite loudly, and many guards outside the door heard him."

"After the second prince went out, our people found a way to get close to the blind man and got the news from him using some tricks."

"The blind man said that Shopkeeper Li has the destiny of a Luan bird. Anyone who wins Shopkeeper Li's sincerity will be like a Luan bird turning into a phoenix."

The butler's voice became lower and lower, carefully avoiding the gaze of everyone around him.

"In other words, whoever Shopkeeper Li is willing to marry may become the emperor!"

After saying this, there was a thunder in the sky.

This thunder seemed to hit the top of the imperial city directly, and the rumbling echo made everyone feel panicked.

After the thunder, the housekeeper could clearly feel that the sixth prince's hand holding down his arm was using 100% of his strength.

"Other than the second prince, who else knows about this matter."

The sixth prince's words were neither sad nor happy, as if he was not shocked at all.

The butler continued to lower his head and said:

"do not know……"

"After hearing this news, the spies immediately thought of killing someone to silence him, but the blind man seemed to have some real abilities."

"The knife that the spies directly applied to his throat was bloody, and the blind man was able to fly out from a circle surrounded by two or three people!"

"There was nothing left on the ground except a scarecrow with its throat cut."

"Our people wanted to chase him, but I don't know if other forces intervened, but they couldn't find him at all!"

When he said this, the housekeeper had already entered the same room with the sixth prince.

In the room, some maids had prepared clothes and were waiting to bathe and change the Sixth Prince.

"Check again."

The sixth prince whispered three words, and the housekeeper immediately lowered his head, turned around and exited the room.

Close the door.

The housekeeper looked up at the sky. It was already covered by black clouds. Although it was only in the evening according to time, it was already so dark that he could hardly see his fingers.

The blind man seemed to have some magical powers and secrets in his hands. Now that he has been lost, it is easier said than done to check again.

The housekeeper sighed.

Forget it, since I have decided to hang out with the Sixth Prince, now I can only do my best no matter how troublesome it is.

In the palace.

There were only two or three candles lit in a remote room. The wind blowing in from the crack in the door kept swaying the small candles. As the candles swayed, several figures in the room also changed, making There was an inexplicable sense of terror in the whole room.

Fang Xing sat on the chair and felt a bit toothache.

He raised his head and glanced at the old housekeeper standing next to him.

The old housekeeper spread his hands and made a helpless expression.

The two men looked at each other, and then looked at the other blind man lying on the ground.

Fang Xing sighed:

"Didn't I just bury one?"

"Tell me, where did this blind man come from?"

The old housekeeper felt that he also had a toothache.

Taking advantage of the rain and darkness, I called two more loyal servants to bury the blind man in the morning.

Even the holes have been dug.

Suddenly a person flew out from outside the wall!

He was dressed like this blind man who was about to be buried!

This situation shocked the old housekeeper. He thought the dead blind man was alive again!

The blind man flew in from outside the courtyard wall. For some unknown reason, he lay down after entering.

But there was nothing I could do now, so I dug a hole that was only big enough to bury one person. Besides, if this was an accomplice of the one in the morning, then it would be up to the prince to decide how to deal with it.

So the old housekeeper decided to bury what should be buried first, and then took this half-dead body to the prince to see what should be done.

After hearing the prince's question, the housekeeper hesitated for a moment before speaking:

"I really don't know how he got here. How about burying this one while it's raining?"

"Anyway, it's okay to bury one, and it's okay to bury two. If you have too many debts, you don't have to worry. If you have too many lice, you don't need to itch..."

Fang Xing raised his hand to interrupt the butler's speech, and said directly to the blind man who had been tied up like a rice dumpling:

"Let's wake him up first."

"If he is the senior brother of the blind man before, I happen to have something to ask him."

The old housekeeper nodded, picked up the bucket placed at the door, and poured the entire bucket of cold water on the motionless blind man.

Then the blind man remained motionless as if he were dead.

Seeing this scene, Fang Xing couldn't help but laugh.

"Is he already dead?"

"Find a few people. Cut this blind man into pieces and bury them separately!"

Upon hearing this.

The blind man who had been motionless suddenly sat up!

"My lord, spare my life!"

I'm so sleepy that I'll post a chapter to prove that I'm alive, and the rest will come soon.
