Quick Wear: Saving the Sickly and Paranoid Villain

Chapter 211: Hypocritical Prince VS Sickly Concubine 30

Lord Wang took the imperial edict from Lu Yuhuai's hand, and his eyes widened after reading the content clearly.

He turned around and showed the imperial edict to everyone: "As you can see, this is the imperial edict written by His Majesty."

He read the contents of the imperial edict, then looked at the Eighth Prince angrily: "Once the imperial edict is out, it will be clear who is the one with evil intentions, right?"

The ministers looked at each other.

The eighth prince's eyes were as cold as a poisonous snake lurking in the grass. Without saying a word, he swung his sword at Lord Wang.

Lord Wang was a civil official after all, and he froze as he looked at the sword coming towards him.

"Deng" another long sword was swung over, and the two swords collided with each other making an exciting sound.

A guard in a gray robe appeared out of nowhere and fought with the Eighth Prince with his sword.

The Eighth Prince's martial arts were indeed good among the younger generation, but they were no longer good when he met a real master. Before everyone could react, the Eighth Prince had already been captured.

The Eighth Prince struggled desperately, his face flushed red: "Brother, what are you doing?"

Lu Yuhuai said calmly: "Catch the rebels."

Those loyal to the Eighth Prince saw that he was under control and could not act easily, so they could only restrain their behavior.

"Traitor?" The Eighth Prince argued, "There's something wrong with the imperial edict. You're clearly still alive, but the edict says you're dead."

Lu Yuhuai explained: "That's because my father mistakenly thought I was dead, so he passed the throne of the crown prince to someone he trusted, but he didn't know that someone like you, my eighth brother, had evil intentions."

"Then how do you explain the behavior of the third brother of Chengmen?"

Lu Yuhuai responded calmly: "Eighth brother, aren't you very clear? Father has been killed by you, and Third Brother just wanted to give you a chance to turn over a new leaf, but I didn't expect you to be so ruthless and disregard any feelings."

"Nonsense!" The Eighth Prince was very excited. "It's not what you said at all. Father has always doted on me. How could I do such a treasonous thing? I think it was you and my third brother who set up a conspiracy to kill Father!"

Lu Yuhuai looked at the Eighth Prince helplessly and tolerantly: "Eighth brother is young, and youth always acts recklessly, but you should also know what to do and what not to do."

The way he looked at him and spoke to him in that tone, as if he were an unreasonable toddler, made the Eighth Prince furious.

"Eighth brother, I am the crown prince. Even if I am extremely reluctant, I must enforce the law impartially. Come, take the eighth prince away."

"You dare?!" The Eighth Prince looked incredulous.

Although he became famous at a young age, fought on the battlefield, and was praised from childhood to adulthood, it was naturally difficult for him to accept his sudden fall to rock bottom, and he could no longer hide his emotions.

Following Lu Yuhuai's order, the soldier who came with the Eighth Prince from the Imperial City immediately walked towards the Eighth Prince and held his arm.

The Eighth Prince's face turned red with anger: "You? You!"

The deputy prime minister stood up and said: "We are loyal to Your Majesty, and those who plot treason should be severely punished!"

As soon as these indignant words came out, the ministers behind him all turned their eyes to him, their eyes trembling slightly.

Oh my God! Some people with ulterior motives were shocked. In their opinion, the deputy prime minister had always been the eighth prince's man, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince could actually make him change sides!

They secretly glanced at the Crown Prince who was standing upright, and their admiration for him deepened.

Lord Wang was full of praise for the Deputy Prime Minister's words. These words were also from his heart. He echoed: "The Deputy Prime Minister is a righteous man."

The Deputy Prime Minister said: "How dare I! Your integrity is admirable."

Lord Wang: "Thank you for your praise, Deputy Prime Minister as well..."

"Enough!" the Eighth Prince shouted, "Enough! Today I finally understand that you are all in the same group!"

"Brother, Your Highness, you are really good at scheming. On the surface, you seem to be not fighting or competing, but in fact, you are playing with all of us in the palm of your hand!"

Lu Yuhuai looked at the Eighth Prince with indifferent eyes. The miserable appearance of the man in front of him made his thoughts drift back to his childhood.

At that time, he was standing in the cold and desolate cold palace. His mother was lying on the ground, spitting out blood. She looked at him with resentment.

What do you hate about him? Do you hate his birth?

He hates it too.

After his mother's death, his life fell into deeper darkness.

Originally, he and she were basically ignored in the cold palace except for being bullied by the palace maids and eunuchs in the cold palace. But after she lost her, more and more people began to discover him and pay attention to him.

Soon, he suffered even more severe insults and beatings.

He still remembered that they had no quilt at that time, so he searched everywhere in the cold palace, and later he actually found a tattered and stiff quilt.

The little boy dodged those who bullied him and dragged the big quilt back to the room!

Later, his quilt was burned and he could only sleep on the cold, hard and damp bottom of the bed. When he slept on the bed, he would always be discovered and bullied.

Two years passed like this, and he slowly discovered one thing: these people bullied him, but were also afraid that he would die.

Why? His small hands supported his thin jaw, which was almost boneless.

One day, a gorgeously dressed, spotless woman stood in front of him and gave him a stiff smile. At that moment he suddenly understood.

He smiled brightly, in a dependent manner.

See, he is so hypocritical.

They didn't do anything wrong, the only mistake was treating him like a fool.

His thoughts returned to the present. The embarrassed Eighth Prince in front of him had been arrogant in front of him more than once when he was young. He let people scold and beat him, and then said to him smugly: "Look, your mother is dead, so no matter how much you are bullied, no one will care about you."

At first, when he was bullied, he would tell the Queen about it, but the Queen could not compare with the favored Concubine Shu. Whenever the Queen and Concubine Shu had a conflict, the Emperor would almost always stand on the side of Concubine Shu.

The Queen was angry and humiliated, she hated the child who humiliated her repeatedly.

So he stopped talking later.

"Take him away." At this moment he said to the people who were holding the eighth prince.

Logically speaking, he has now avenged his childhood, but he does not feel happy at all.

The person lazily leaning on the chair suddenly appeared in his mind, light-colored petals fell, and she raised her beautiful smile.

He wanted desperately to see her and hug her.
