Fortunately, this is just Gu Yuan's worry.

In just three days, the people's shelter was successfully built.

Pei Chun felt relieved after seeing the people moving into the shelter with relieved faces.

What followed was the celebration of the twelfth prince being appointed crown prince.

With just one word from the emperor, the ceremony was moved forward to before the Spring Festival.

Pei Chun and Gu Yuan, wearing thick clothes, stood in the palace where the ceremony was held. They saw the Twelfth Prince, wearing the crown prince's clothes with great pride, stepping onto the high platform with a dignified manner.

Just as he was about to take the crown of the crowned prince handed to him by the emperor himself, a loud voice suddenly rang out from the eunuch in the distance.

"Your Majesty, this is bad, Your Majesty!"

It attracted the attention of all the court officials and their families.

The twelfth prince's face darkened instantly, and he looked at the eunuch who was shouting in panic with murderous intent.

The emperor frowned slightly: "How dare you! What's wrong with that?"

The young eunuch fell to his knees with a thud: "Your Majesty, the shelter, the shelter... has collapsed!"

"What?!" Pei Chun was shocked and subconsciously turned to look at Gu Yuan in amazement.

He subconsciously clenched Gu Yuan's big hand.

The crown of the crowned prince in the emperor's hand fell to the ground instantly. He frowned and glared at the twelfth prince beside him.

The slightly red eyes looked very scary.

The ceremony of establishing the crown prince was forced to stop, and the court officials looked at each other in confusion for a while.

Prince Jing, in particular, turned pale and began to tremble. When he raised his eyes, he saw the twelfth prince looking at him with murderous intent.

After Pei Chun followed the emperor with the army for a long time, he finally figured out what had happened.

The newly built shelter collapsed again because of heavy snowfall and no one cleaning it.

The collapse killed almost half of the people there.

It's really tragic.

When the emperor heard this, he asked coldly, "Why is no one cleaning the roof?"

The officials below hesitated, and when the emperor's murderous intent became more and more intense, they finally explained: "Your Majesty, the people who sent people to build the shelter were all people under His Royal Highness the Twelfth Prince.

Those officials did not allow us to approach the shelter, so no one dared to take the initiative to clean it..."

When the emperor heard this, his cold eyes swept across the twelfth prince in the corner.

"Why, he won't even let me clean up Old Twelve's things?"

The official who came to report pursed his lips and spoke after a while: "After the collapse, we found that the materials used in the shelter...

It was made of damp wood and a thatched roof that was not load-bearing enough. In order to save money, extremely heavy stones were used as the roof.

That’s why so many people were crushed to death this time…”

The emperor seemed to have already had a plan in mind and just sneered when he heard it.

He immediately took charge of the situation: "I don't care what method you use, now immediately transfer all the living people to the mansion of the Twelveth Elder.

As for Old Twelve, oh, get out of here and go to the dungeon of the Ministry of Justice!"

The emperor said this in the blink of an eye, and even the surrounding court officials had not yet reacted.

The twelfth prince was dragged away by the palace guards.

Pei Chun took everything in from the side and for the first time looked directly at the emperor.

Emperor Zhao finally did a good thing.

Instead of just thinking about "beloved concubine" all day long, with your mind full of matters between men and women.

The eldest princess beside her seemed to have known that this was the emperor's true face, and there was no surprise in her eyes.

Her royal brother and she had been dependent on each other since childhood. If she didn't have some skills, it would have been impossible for her to break out of the cannibalistic palace.

Although I am getting older now, I am a little out of touch with what I do.

But after all, he had been the emperor for such a long time. If he didn't have some strategies, how could he have torn the Pei family apart in his previous life?

At that time, Xuan Yan's eyes were red and he spoke of it with resentment.

She had already guessed that it must be that her good brother had come up with some disgusting conspiracy in his previous life and used it on Mingcheng.

Seeing this, Gu Yuan also rolled his eyes slightly.

"You all can go away. I'm a little tired." After the emperor said this in front, he turned and walked towards the harem.

The originally restrained atmosphere among the court officials finally became a little more lively.
