Quick Wear: Saving the Sickly and Paranoid Villain

Chapter 208: Hypocritical Prince VS Sickly Concubine 27

The white clouds in the sky were blown away by the strong wind, and looking up there was only clear blue.

Emperor Jian'an had experienced too much in the past two days, and he had been thinking too much last night, so he didn't sleep well. He had a severe headache when he got up this morning.

He rubbed his brows and looked at the housekeeper standing beside him: "How is the army preparing? Can it set off on time?"

The head of the internal affairs department said: "Last night, the commander of the guards told me that I could leave on time."

Emperor Jian'an: "That's good."

After washing up, the head of the internal affairs department said, "Your Majesty, would you like to order food?"

Emperor Jian'an nodded.

Soon, breakfast was brought and Emperor Jian'an took a few bites before stopping.

The housekeeper: "Your Majesty, would you like some more?"

Emperor Jian'an waved his hand.

The meal was then removed.

Emperor Jian'an: "Get ready and notify the guards to return to the palace."

Housekeeper: “Yes.”

Just as the steward was about to go out, soldiers in armor came in. They looked aggressive and had ill intentions.

The housekeeper was shocked: "How dare you! Who are you to break in without permission?"

The soldiers standing in front laughed mockingly and ignored him.

The housekeeper felt something was wrong and took a few steps back.

At this time, the soldiers dispersed to both sides, and a man in golden armor walked slowly over. He looked at the housekeeper and smiled: "Master Li, long time no see."

The housekeeper's eyes widened: "Third Prince!"

The third prince smiled and said, "It's me."

"You, you, you are plotting treason!"

The Third Prince: "Treason? This is to purge the emperor's court. The Eighth Prince has tried to assassinate my father many times, but my father has been deceived by him and has let him go time and time again. The Eighth Prince deserves death!"

The steward of internal affairs was in disbelief, but before he could say anything, the Third Prince had him arrested and his mouth blocked.

A group of people walked in in a mighty manner. Emperor Jian'an frowned when he heard the noise. He was about to scold them when a voice came over.

"Father."

Emperor Jian'an looked over and saw that his third son was walking in front, followed by a large group of armored soldiers.

"Third brother, what are you doing?" Emperor Jian'an was surprised and angry.

The third prince was very happy: "Father, I am here to clean up the emperor's entourage. Father, you have been deceived by the traitors. I am here to save you."

Emperor Jian'an slammed the table, then stood up, his eyes almost blazing with anger: "Clear the emperor's side, what emperor's side do you want to clear? Are you planning a rebellion?"

The Third Prince: "Father, you are wrong. I have no such intention. I just don't want you to be deceived by my eighth brother. My eighth brother has tried to assassinate you many times and he deserves to be executed."

"You, are you forcing me?!"

"I dare not," said the Third Prince, "I hope your Majesty will make a decision as soon as possible."

"You," Emperor Jian'an pointed at him, his fingers trembling, "you have evil ambitions!"

The Third Prince said impatiently: "Father, please make a decision as soon as possible. This will be good for everyone."

Emperor Jian'an calmed down and said, "Even if the Eighth Brother was stabbed to death, so what? With the Crown Prince still here, your wish will never come true!"

The Third Prince burst into laughter upon hearing this: "You mean the Crown Prince? Do you know that it was because the Crown Prince led the guards away that I was able to break in here so easily and see you."

"What?!" Emperor Jian'an was furious. "The prince actually helped you? Is he crazy?"

The Third Prince said proudly, "Crazy? No, he's not. He's just stupid. He was fooled by my few words and was willing to help me lead the guards away. I really have to thank him."

Emperor Jian'an's anger became even stronger. Prince, how could you be so foolish?

Suddenly he thought of another person, that was the Eighth Prince who was under house arrest by him. The Eighth Prince had always been smart, so he wanted to delay for some time, maybe the Eighth Prince could come to rescue him.

The Third Prince's patience reached its limit: "Father, have you not made a decision yet? Do you want me to help you?"

He walked forward, unsheathed his sword, which was flashing with silver-white light, and approached Emperor Jian'an step by step.

Emperor Jian'an shuddered and was speechless.

The third prince turned around and slashed the steward's throat with his sword. Bright red blood spurted out and some of it splashed on Emperor Jian'an.

"Issue the decree quickly!" the third prince urged.

Emperor Jian'an froze. He knew that he, the third prince, was really capable of doing it. He then tremblingly took out a pen and paper, and ink dripped on the paper, leaving a black dot.

The Third Prince's men quickly replaced the paper, and then a group of people looked at Emperor Jian'an with eager eyes.

Under tremendous pressure, Emperor Jian'an wrote an imperial edict to kill the eighth prince. Then the third prince made another request. The crown prince unfortunately died while saving the emperor, so the third prince was made the crown prince.

Emperor Jian'an glanced at the third prince and his heart was filled with hatred. This damn thing should not have been born.

He knew clearly in his heart that this imperial edict could not be issued, as his life would be in danger if it was issued.
