The real daughter's life was stolen, and she was reborn and became the best in the capital

As soon as Li Chang received the things sent by Chang Bao, he knew that he could no longer hide his collusion with the Fourth Prince over the years.

He actually had a feeling about it a long time ago.

During these two months, although His Highness acted the same as before every time he saw him, he never invited him to have a drink and chat privately again.

At first, he thought His Highness was too busy.

But after doing this many times, he gradually began to have doubts in his heart.

He just didn't expect that His Highness would find out about his sister so quickly, and from his sister, find out about the Fourth Prince.

Things had come to this point, and he didn't struggle.

He has no right to struggle.

Li Chang was wearing a scarlet official robe that was old but still neat.

He looked at Chang Bao and did not beg for mercy.

He seemed to have expected this day to come, and he didn't even make any unnecessary excuses or resistance.

He just said to Chang Bao: "I know what Your Highness wants me to do. I only have one request. Please let my sister go."

"I only have this one relative in this world."

"She is just an ignorant woman who doesn't understand so much. Over the years, I have never said anything to her. She is in poor health and won't live for many years. Your Highness, please have mercy and spare her life."

When Chang Bao heard this, he couldn't help but sneer.

"Lord Li is really capable. Even when he is about to die, he still thinks about others!" Chang Bao really hated Li Chang, and his words became sarcastic.

"His Highness has been following you since childhood and treats you like a brother and a friend, you are so good!"

Chang Bao couldn't hold back his anger.

If it weren't for the note that day, he would never have imagined that Li Chang would actually betray His Highness!

This person has followed Your Highness for more than ten years.

Apart from him, Li Chang is the person His Highness trusts the most.

During the years when Prince Chang'an was away, and during the years when His Highness gradually became disappointed with Your Majesty, His Highness shared all his joys and sorrows with Li Chang.

He is not only your highness's teacher and subordinate, but also your highness's confidant and good friend.

Li Chang's betrayal was the sharpest blade that pierced His Highness' heart.

Even though His Highness looked fine, Chang Bao knew that he was feeling upset inside.

With a cold face, he continued to speak to Li Chang in a sinister tone: "Your Highness knows that Lord Li has few relatives in this world, so he takes such good care of him and thinks of him in everything."

"Every year during festivals, His Highness always invites you to dinner at the East Palace. He even personally helps you find girls. I hope you can have someone who will take good care of you."

"What about you?"

"This is how you treat your highness!"

Li Chang remained silent.

But his face gradually turned pale.

He naturally knew how outrageous his actions were and how sorry he was to His Highness.

But things went wrong.

The chess piece has been placed.

When he first met the Fourth Prince in private, there was no turning back.

The Fourth Prince saved Xiulan's life and knew how important Xiulan was to him, so he used this to blackmail her.

He has also been struggling internally over the years.

Even if what he told the Fourth Prince were only insignificant matters, betrayal is still betrayal.

He knew very well what kind of person the prince, whom he had personally raised, was.

He will never forgive anyone who betrays him.

Absolutely not.

The sky was dim.

Li Chang sat in this dim room, his expression gradually becoming haggard.

He lowered his head in the dim light.

It seems like I got old all of a sudden.

Chang Bao was afraid that he would turn against Li Chang in the face of danger, so he could only hold back his temper and said to Li Chang in a cold voice: "Your Highness is afraid of dirtying his hands, so he won't do it, but we don't know whether the Fourth Prince you are loyal to will do anything."

After saying this, Chang Bao sneered twice.

He looked at Li Chang and sneered, "Your Excellency had better pray that the Fourth Prince can be taken down today. Then, who knows, your sister might be able to escape and enjoy her old age in peace."

"Otherwise, when the Fourth Prince regains his power, my lord's sister, whom you have carefully protected, will be alive or dead, and our family will not be able to guarantee it."

After listening to this, Li Chang did not say anything, but only asked in a hoarse voice: "Where is His Highness now?"

Chang Bao sneered: "Where the prince is, what does it have to do with you?"

When Li Chang heard this, he knew that the prince would never see him again, so he said nothing more and let Chang Bao lead people to take him to the palace.

Li Chang remained silent all the way.

It was not until he saw Gu Changze in front of the Wende Hall that Li Chang's haggard expression finally showed some changes.

"Your Highness..."

Looking at the young man approaching from afar, Li Chang shouted.

But the young man who in his memory always called him "Sir" with a smile didn't even look at him today.

He was aloof and arrogant, as if he had returned to the time when Li Chang first met him.

He just said to the palace servant who came out: "I have something to report to my father."

When the palace maid saw Gu Changze, she naturally did not dare to neglect him.

"Your Highness, please wait a moment. I will go and report to His Majesty right away." The palace servant said and went in.

After a while.

The palace servant came out and said, "Your Highness, please come in."

Gu Changze nodded and went in. Li Chang looked at his figure with a slightly dimmed look in his eyes and followed him in.

Emperor Zhenguang had just met the Three Officials.

We knew that the disaster at Mingyue Tower was not a natural disaster but a man-made one, and we just found out that the person who was related to this incident died in the prison of the Ministry of Justice.

Emperor Zhenguang was naturally furious!

He asked someone to investigate the matter thoroughly.

Just when Zhongning was calming down by holding his head, he heard the prince coming.

At this time, he heard footsteps coming from outside. Emperor Zhenguang looked at Gu Changze and was about to speak when he saw the prince's teacher following behind him.

"what happened?"

Emperor Zhenguang was about to explain the matter of Yue Tower to others, but stopped in his throat. He frowned and asked the prince, who obviously looked a little unwell.

Gu Changze said, "My son has something to report to the emperor."

Emperor Zhenguang looked at Changze's appearance and raised his hand to stop Zhongning's action. He sat up, looked at the prince, and then looked at Li Chang who was kneeling on the ground with his head down and silent.

"what's up?"

His voice also became a little deeper.

Gu Changze knelt on the ground, looking angry, and said to Emperor Zhenguang: "I know that I am not a good elder brother, but I always think that it is normal for brothers to have quarrels occasionally. Even with the third brother, no matter how fiercely I fought with him, I never placed anyone around him."

When Emperor Zhenguang heard this, his eyelids couldn't help but twitch twice.

His eyes suddenly fell on Li Chang.

Zhongning also opened his eyes wide in surprise.

"But I don't know what my fourth brother is thinking. He actually bribed Li Chang! Li Chang is my son's teacher and the person he trusts the most. What exactly does my fourth brother want to do by doing this? Is he dissatisfied with his elder brother, or does he want to replace him?"

"My son admits that although I haven't been very attentive to him over the years, this is my personality. I treat him the same as I treat the fifth brother. I don't understand why my fourth brother does this!"

"If my son hadn't discovered that something was wrong with Li Chang, I'm afraid we would have been kept in the dark."

"You are the crown prince of Daqian, but even the people around you have been bribed by others. My son can't sleep at night just thinking about it!"

Emperor Zhenguang had already been stunned.

He originally thought that Li Chang was bribed by the third brother, but he didn't expect that it was the fourth brother, who he had always favored and thought was obedient and well-behaved...

How could it be the fourth one?

Even Emperor Zhenguang was stunned at this moment.

It was not until he heard a "dong" that Emperor Zhenguang came back to his senses and saw the prince knocking his head to the ground: "Son, please investigate thoroughly. Son also wants to ask Fourth Brother, what exactly is he going to do!"

Emperor Zhenguang frowned: "Why don't you help the prince up!"

"Yes Yes……"

Zhongning came to his senses, ran over hurriedly and helped Gu Changze up.

Emperor Zhenguang looked at Gu Changze who was helped up, and saw that there was a red mark on his forehead, and he couldn't help but frown again.

He asked someone to get the ointment.

He looked at Li Chang.

He knew very well that as the eldest son, no one would come to him to make trouble unless they were absolutely sure.

Although I can't believe that this has anything to do with the fourth brother.

But Emperor Zhenguang immediately ordered in a deep voice: "Call the fourth prince to the palace."

If this is true.

Then this fourth son of his really fooled everyone!

Even he was fooled!

Thinking back to not long ago, he still thought that among his sons, he, the fourth son, was the most obedient. Unexpectedly, he was slapped in the face now!

It's normal for brothers to have disputes.

Emperor Zhenguang would not be surprised even if he placed something next to the other party.

But Li Chang is no one else.

In time, if the prince ascends the throne, Li Chang will be the emperor's teacher!

The one who directly bribed the crown prince's teacher is simply despicable!

Although Emperor Zhenguang had deliberately promoted his third son in order to dampen the Crown Prince's arrogance, he never really changed his mind about who would be the crown prince.

……

Half an hour later, Gu Changxuan received the news.

Express news.

Gu Changxuan was already worried today because of the Fan family's affairs. When he heard that his father urgently summoned him to the palace, even a calm man like Gu Changxuan could not help but stagger.

"Your Highness!"

Tong Ke was close by and quickly reached out to help.

He knew why His Highness was like this, and he was also worried.

Seeing His Highness like this, he couldn't help but say, "Why don't I refuse and say you are sick?"

Gu Changxuan said hoarsely: "Who do you think is looking for me?"

"My father has ordered that even if I am really ill, I must go as long as I can still walk. Besides, I can hide on the first day, but not on the fifteenth... How long can I hide?"

He still felt uneasy.

The Fan family disappeared without a trace, and no one knew who sent that group of people.

But no matter who it is, this move is really disadvantageous to him.

The only thing to be thankful for was that Fan You had died last night. The Fan family had no idea about Fan You's cooperation with him, nor did they know that he had sent people to watch them.

However, Gu Changxuan didn't know who the person hiding behind the Fan family was, and who the person who killed Fan You was.

He didn't know whether Fan You left any evidence before his death.

It’s precisely because I don’t know.

That's why he feels so uncomfortable.

It's like there's a huge knife hanging over your head, never knowing when it might fall.

"Then, why don't I go find my uncle and see if he has any news or solutions."

The uncle that Tong Ke was talking about.

It was Gu Changxuan's uncle, Xiao Jian, the current Minister of Rites and important member of the Cabinet.

"That's too late."

"Besides, it's useless to go find my uncle now. If my father finds out, it will only be bad for my uncle."

Gu Changxuan knew the importance of the matter.

My uncle finally entered the cabinet and is now barely gaining a foothold. If the Xiao family is implicated because of his affairs, then they can forget about rising again.
