The Villain's Heart Black Moonlight

After that, it was obvious that everyone had no interest in continuing hunting.

Especially Kangdi, his blood rushed up to the point that he felt dizzy when he stood up and almost fell down from his seat.

What happened today was truly an eye-opener for everyone.

I thought it was a simple case of Prime Minister Cen's assassination, but after being dragged out for so long, it turned into a case of the crown prince's treason!

And judging from the prince’s reaction, this might be true!

If this happens, the situation in the court will be reshuffled.

The ministers looked at each other and felt the urgency of the impending storm.

I just don't know what role Cen Jinchao played in this... Some people inevitably felt confused. It seemed that Prime Minister Cen was involved in the whole thing, but it seemed that it had nothing to do with him.

Who did this? Or was it really the prince's own carelessness?

Before the meeting ended, all the ministers suspected everyone, and some even thought that there might be a traitor on the prince's side, but no one thought of Chi Chu.

——The Sixth Princess is just a simple and naive princess with a weak sense of existence who was raised in the deep palace.

How could this kind of thing have anything to do with her?

Chi, the mastermind behind the scenes, smiled softly, hiding his achievements and fame.

-

During the subsequent period of time in the palace, hunting was obviously put on the back burner.

In other words, we are still in the palace, and many things are not very convenient to do. If we were in the capital, someone would definitely have already started preparing for action.

What happened that day quickly reached the ears of the female relatives who were not present.

When Tang Qingyuan heard that the prince was under house arrest, he inevitably felt panic in his heart.

Although she was not at the scene, she was able to accurately identify her target from what other people said - Chi Chu.

But now is not the time to cause trouble for Chi Chu, the first issue should be...

It is indeed true that the prince privately made weapons!

If no one reminds the factory outside the capital, it may be discovered by people sent by His Majesty. By then, the charge of treason will be brought, even if the prince has no intention of doing so now.

The criminals will be caught red-handed and there will be no way to save the situation.

In fact, there is a solution now. If the people on our side can return to the capital before His Majesty's people go back, then there is still room for maneuver.

but……

There is only one person who can do this now.

Tang Qingyuan stood up anxiously, and finally took a deep breath and chose to walk towards a palace in the imperial palace... That was Xu Shiyin's place.

As an imperial merchant, Xu Shiyin does have his own information channels.

Even faster than the emperor's. After all, business matters are always information wars.

only--

"Miss Tang, are you joking? I am just a businessman, how dare I get involved in such things?"

"Mr. Xu, please don't think about it again... If you choose to help His Highness now, it would be a timely help. If His Highness ascends to the throne, he can give you many benefits.

And Mr. Xu, I heard that you have been getting close to Lord Prime Minister Cen recently. If this matter gets to His Majesty, I am afraid we will be in trouble together, right?"

Tang Qingyuan was really anxious at this time, and used both threats and inducements.

However, she is still young after all. What she had come into contact with before her rebirth were actually tactics of domestic fighting, which were completely different from the intrigues in the court and the business world. She could not deal with an old fox like Xu Shiyin.

"What Miss Tang said actually makes sense, but everyone already knows that Prime Minister Cen and I are friends... And it's not that I don't want to help, but I really don't have the ability to do so."

Xu Shiyin still had a smiling face.

The same was true for the next few sentences. No matter what Tang Qingyuan said, he responded with a smile and neither soft nor hard.

Finally, Tang Qingyuan's teeth became dry from talking, and dusk fell in the west.

Xu Shiyin also showed no sign of giving in.

Helplessly, Tang Qingyuan had to return empty-handed.

But what she didn't know was that after she left, Xu Shiyin went directly to Cen Jinchao and told him everything she had said to him.

In fact, this can be considered a token of allegiance.

Xu Shiyin had concealed something from Cen Jinzhao before, which had offended him somewhat. Although the situation is unclear now, Xu Shiyin knows that he has to take side.

The prince's imminent fall was naturally not taken into consideration.

As for Concubine Xian and Prince An, Prince An is not even in the capital, so it is inconvenient to contact him, and the other party may not trust him.

Then the only choice left is Cen Jinzhao.

Although deep down he felt that Cen Jinchao was the most dangerous person, he had no choice given the current situation.

-

When returning to the capital from the temporary palace, the prince was still under house arrest.

Tang Qingyuan was the only member of the princeling party who was outside the party. Unfortunately, as a woman, she had little say and could not take charge. She wanted to help, but in the end, she got nothing in return.

Most people just treat her perfunctorily.

Unlike the relaxed atmosphere when we came, the whole convoy seemed lifeless when we returned.

Everyone was terrified, fearing that they would face a palace coup as soon as they returned.

Only Chi Chu looked no different from usual, still calm, gentle and heartless as he sat in Cen Jinzhao's carriage reading a storybook.

She actually wanted to watch a play more——

Watch the drama of Emperor Kang and the Crown Prince fighting each other.

Cen Jinzhao has become visibly busy recently.

He sat in the carriage and read the contents of the document. He glanced at Chi Chu from the corner of his eye, and then the corner of his mouth slightly raised an arc -

This time when they return to Beijing, it will be the day for them to get married.

He had asked his subordinates to start preparations before leaving Beijing. After returning this time, within a few days, the two of them would be able to become a legitimate couple.

The prince's affairs seemed not so important to him now.

Thinking of this, Cen Jinzhao's hands unconsciously clenched a little.

For the first time, something resembling gentleness appeared in his eyes.

Human beings' joys and sorrows are not the same.

At this time, on another carriage belonging to the prince.

Ning Hekun had noticeably lost weight in just a few days, and his expression and complexion were quite ugly. Opposite him were some people sitting, all of whom were his trustworthy aides.

Everyone in the car had a bad expression on their faces, and one of them spoke in a deep voice.

"Your Highness... We have no way out now. We might as well take them by surprise and burn our boats!"
