There is a fake demigod in the East Palace

When Yan Tian came in with several trays of coffee, Rong Zheng was sitting in front of a row of computers without saying a word.In front of the computer is a huge monitoring wall, which is composed of countless small screens, and the real-time images of the major intersections in the capital are being played on the screens.

The monitoring room of the East Palace Security Center was extremely lively tonight, and many staff members were temporarily called back to work overtime by their superiors.Some of them are engrossed in the real-time screen, while others are carefully reviewing the surveillance records hours ago, trying not to miss a single scene.

Yan Tian asked the attendant to distribute the coffee he brought to other people in the monitoring room, and then he came to Rong Zheng and put the coffee in the prince's hand: "Your Highness, you have been looking for several hours, let's take a break first, I'll help you keep watching."

Rong Zheng stared at the monitor screen intently, and asked, "Have you found his signal yet?"

Yan Tian knew that he was not good at doing things, so he said with some guilt: "Still in the process of positioning."

After Rong Zheng came out of Aurora Technology, he asked the traffic police brigade for permission, and personally led people to check the surveillance cameras at various intersections in the capital.The remaining troops were divided into several groups. One team went to the spot where Ye Zhaoling's car had last appeared before disappearing, and the other team searched for Ye Zhaoling's communication signal with all their strength.

Rong Zheng was planning the next move in his mind, if there was still no news before dawn, he would use the latest technical means of the Police Headquarters.

Yan Tian looked at Rong Zheng worriedly at the side, and saw that the prince's expression became more serious, and comforted him: "Don't worry, Your Highness, Lord Hou will be safe."

As soon as Yan Tian finished speaking, Xia Xue pushed the door open and walked in, panting.She stood by the door and collected herself before she said, "Your Highness, there is news from Lord Hou."

Yan Tian was overjoyed, and quickly asked, "Where is it?"

"On the way back, they said that Lord Hou went to meet old friends from college." Xia Xue replied.

Hearing what Xia Xue said, Yan Tian was very puzzled: "Where to go to meet old friends, there is no news from the meeting?"

"Lingluo Mountain House." After Xia Xue finished speaking, she asked curiously, "Lord Yan, what is Lingluo Mountain House?"

After Xia Xue finished speaking, Ye Zhaoling's car appeared on the big screen in the middle of the monitoring wall.Rong Zheng looked up at the black official car driving steadily to the intersection, with no expression of joy or anger on his face.

Naturally, Rong Zheng knew who the Lingluo Shanfang belonged to.This place is very popular among business and political aristocrats, and Ye Zhaoling's identity is sensitive, so it's not unusual for her to make an appointment with her friends to meet there.

Ye Zhaoling is free to go wherever he wants, if he has to get to the bottom of such trivial matters, it will show how much he cares about this person.

Rong Zheng said lightly: "Okay, it's fine, it's all gone, I've worked hard today." In the end, he left Yan Tian alone again, and confessed: "You go to check it in private, and don't mention it to him. It's about tonight."

Compared with Ye Zhaoling's accident, Rong Zheng's performance tonight worried Yan Tian even more.Taking advantage of the two of them alone at the moment, Yan Tian thought for a while, then said hesitantly: "Your Highness, you tonight..."

Rong Zheng interrupted him: "I know, it won't happen in the future."

When Ye Zhaoling returned to the East Palace, the palace was pitch black, with only a few palace lanterns left under the eaves.He walked into the bedroom, met Le Zhi who was on duty tonight, and asked, "Where is Your Highness?"

"Your Highness is going away tomorrow, and I have already gone to bed early tonight." Le Zhi was preparing Rong Zheng's luggage for tomorrow's business trip. She put the prince's usual utensils into the box neatly, and asked Ye Zhaoling: "Your Majesty needs me for something." Can you help convey it?"

Ye Zhaoling was taken aback for a moment, and quickly said, "It's okay, you should rest earlier."

After bidding farewell to Lezhi, Ye Zhaoling was supposed to return to her dormitory.He was a little absent-minded along the way, but for some reason, he came to Rong Zheng's door.

The room was quiet, Rong Zheng had probably fallen asleep.He stood alone in front of Rong Zheng's door, the hand knocking on the door was raised and lowered several times.

The last time it was unwise to act rashly on the plane, Ye Zhaoling felt that he had already made a mistake and left a lot of small tails.Time is running out, and I can't stay in the East Palace for much longer.He shouldn't get involved in these intrigues of the royal family anymore, and he shouldn't be tied down by some useless things.

Besides, the more the family surnamed Rong fights, the better it is for him.

It wasn't until Ye Zhaoling left that Rong Zheng behind the door withdrew his hand on the doorknob.A moment later, the familiar sound of the door opening sounded from the opposite side, and it was quickly closed again.

Rong Zheng didn't return to his bed until Ye Zhaoling's voice could no longer be heard outside the door.

Rong Zheng clearly understands the relationship between himself and Ye Zhaoling. Even if there is a moment of distraction, as far as the two of them are concerned, parting ways after the cooperation and no longer have any ties to each other can be regarded as a good ending.

It's just that I paid too much attention to him these days, and Rong Zheng didn't want to think about the reason.He also knew what Yan Tian was worried about. He mobilized the crowd tonight, as if he cared about it, causing chaos and losing his sense of propriety.

Seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages is the survival instinct of people in the royal family, and his road has always been full of thorns.If you want to be invulnerable, you have to dig out your weaknesses first.

Fortunately, he discovered it early, Rong Zheng thought, it's not too late to stop it in time.

**

In the early morning of the next day, Rong Rong received the news that the prince had left the city.

Rong Zheng's visit this time is not an important matter, but the Princess Mansion's eyes are always on the East Palace.As long as there is news that can be obtained, no matter how big or small, it will be reported to Rong Rong in detail.

"Why is the prince the only one leaving the palace?" Rong Rong lay on the imperial concubine's couch with a white mask on his face, and casually asked the staff who came to report the news: "I heard that the event was originally scheduled for the prince and the Marquis of Jingnan. attend together."

Rong Rong's inadvertent words reminded the staff, the staff said: "Jingnan Hou seems to never visit other places with the crown prince. It is reported that the relationship between the two is not as close as the outside rumors."

The princess closed the magazine in her hand, sat up, and asked, "Really?"

The aide said: "It's absolutely true. It is said that they sleep in separate rooms in the palace, and they are usually at odds with each other. It seems that there must be a problem with their marriage."

"This is an opportunity." Rong Rong pondered for a moment, hooked his staff, and said, "I have something for you to do..."

After the staff left, the bead curtain behind the screen moved slightly, and a figure came out from behind the curtain.

The person who came was a middle-aged beautiful woman. She was dressed luxuriously and had a good face. It is not difficult to see that she was a rare beauty when she was young.It's just that her complexion is gray and pale, with a sickly tired look all the time.

Frost fell on Rong Rong's face immediately, she took off the mask and threw it on the side table, then lay back on the imperial couch: "What are you doing there?"

"What were you talking about just now?" The woman stepped forward upon hearing the voice. Under the sunlight, her eyes were covered with two bruises, as if she had never slept well in her life.

"Why put on an act in front of your own daughter." Rong Rong's eyes twitched lightly, and he glanced at her coolly, with a disdainful sarcasm in his eyes: "You were hiding behind the curtain just now, didn't you hear everything clearly?" what?"

It turned out that this woman was Princess Zhuang Hui, Rong Rong's mother.Just now when Rong Rong was talking to his staff, she quietly hid behind the screen, listening for an unknown amount of time.

"What are you, worthy of fighting for power?" The princess came to Rong Rong gracefully, leaned over and gently pinched her chin.

"Why am I not worthy? Can't you see how greedy and corrupt the royal family is? The empress is a disaster for the country and the people, and the princes and princes are mediocre and incompetent. They only see their own self-interest in their eyes, but they are born to be qualified to sit in that position. "Rong Rong looked directly into her mother's eyes and said softly: "They are all worthy, why can't I? Only when I become emperor can Dasheng have a glimmer of hope."

"So what?" The woman's nails were very long, and her fingertips were slightly painful when they touched the skin.The concubine played with Rong Rong's face left and right as if she was picking an animal, narrowed her eyes and said, "You are neither the heir of the emperor, but also a woman, even if there is no crown prince, the throne will not belong to you, a lowly bastard." on the head."

As a noble lady of the royal family, Rong Rong acted like a normal person when faced with such insulting words.

"You'd better pray that I will never be on the throne in this life. If I become the throne in the future, I'm sure you will live a miserable life for the rest of your life." She calmly pushed the princess's hand away, and said softly: " From the moment you decide to become the princess, your life is over."

"Presumptuous!" With a crisp sound, a crisp slap hit her face, and Rong Rong's words hit the princess's scales precisely.The princess strangled Rong Rong's neck like crazy, her eyes became paranoid and crazy in an instant.

Rong Rong is very used to this. Her mother beat and scolded her since she was a child, and it was not until Rong Rong was able to backhand that she restrained herself.

Rong Rong pushed the concubine to the ground, and did not allow her to behave wildly in front of him.She stood up, swallowed the blood in her mouth, stared straight into her mother's eyes, and said, "I promise, I will become the emperor, and I will make you regret it even more."
