Chapter 917: Not a big dealThe emperor sneered, "Long Yaodong, you are really brave. In my bedroom, I am still playing chess with Fu Aiqing, and you are so brave."
He was so angry that he waved his hand and overturned several dishes on the table.
The ministers hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, please calm down."
"Come here, take Long Yaodong out," the emperor shouted, "hand all the case files and dossiers over to the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice for review, and give an explanation to the people and the court."
Soon, Long Yaodong was escorted out of the hall.
The palace maids and eunuchs immediately cleaned up the spilled food and broken plates on the ground.
The palace banquet continues.
The emperor raised his glass and said, "Don't let me disturb your mood. My dear ministers, come and drink together."
Long Feng was ashamed to stay at the palace banquet, so he immediately said goodbye: "Your Majesty, I am ashamed. Please give me a chance to talk to him."
How could the emperor not know what he was thinking, and he immediately allowed him to leave.
Long Yaodong returned to the Prince's Mansion.
His privilege as a prince was that he did not have to be imprisoned until the case was completely closed.
Seeing the plaque with the words "Prince's Mansion" being taken down, he clenched his hands tightly.
The woman next to him, Du Mizhen, followed suit without saying a word.
She had gone from being a high and mighty Crown Princess to having fallen so badly after that night's palace banquet.
Although she is still the eldest prince's consort in name, her fate will depend on what happens to Long Yaodong in the future.
Long Yaodong watched the plaque being carried away overnight and strode into the mansion.
Du Mizhen followed in hurriedly.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince is back?"
Cai Mushi came out with her sister Cai Muge.
Du Mizhen had no place to vent her anger, so she slapped each of the Cai sisters, one on the left and one on the right.
Cai Muge covered his face.
Cai Mushi raised her hand and tried to fight back, but Long Yaodong shouted, "Enough!"
Du Mizhen slapped Cai Mushi and Cai Muge again with her backhand: "Just now at the palace banquet, your father said that His Highness was guilty, but he granted your wish. Now His Highness is no longer the crown prince."
"He's not the prince anymore?" Cai Mushi ignored the pain on her face and hurriedly grabbed Long Yaodong's arm, "Your Highness, please tell me this is fake."
"Yes, Your Highness. Today the imperial physician said that I have a chance of getting pregnant this month."
Cai Muge wanted to cry.
She entered the Prince's Mansion in such an unclear manner. Now the Prince's Mansion is no longer the Prince's Mansion, and she is still a woman with no status.
I originally thought that Long Yaodong was the prince after all, but now it seems that the dream is about to be shattered.
Seeing their dazed and dejected looks, Du Mizhen felt inexplicably relieved and laughed out loud.
She laughed so hard that tears came out.
"Your Highness has committed too many crimes. I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to decide what to do in the future."
"Also, today he tried to flirt with Yan Funing and even said that he wanted her to be the Crown Princess. It can be said that even if he is still the Crown Prince, the position of Crown Princess will never belong to you."
"Du Mizhen!"
Long Yaodong raised his hand high.
"Go ahead and hit me." Du Mizhen raised her face. "You can't even protect yourself, and you're taking your anger out on a woman? I advise you to think about how to survive."
After saying that, he left with a laugh.
Cai Mushi and Cai Muge looked at each other.
If they still stay here today, they will definitely not have a good ending. It is better for them to return to the Cai family as soon as possible.
Having made up their minds, the two turned around.
Long Yaodong called them, "Don't even think about going back to my parents' home. If anything happens to me, you will be with me."
Cai Mushi and Cai Muge shuddered.
"We didn't plan to go back. We just wanted to make some calming medicine for His Highness. There must be room for things to turn around." Cai Mushi said.
Long Yaodong snorted and watched them retreat. Thinking that he had to find his aides to discuss countermeasures, he walked towards the study.
Just then, an urgent voice came from the door. "Son."
Long Yaodong looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the person coming was Long Feng, so he shouted, "Dad, why are you here?"
"At this critical moment, I have to come."
Long Feng strode over.
The father and son went to the study.
Seeing his biological father looking outside the study room warily and closing the doors and windows, Long Yaodong lowered his voice and said, "Dad, I want to find my staff to discuss a solution. What do you mean?"
"Don't shout for the staff yet, you and I, father and son, can have a chat first."
The two sat down.
"What can Dad do?"
"We have to fight. If we don't, you will die."
"Dad, I am still a prince. Even if the evidence is irrefutable, the worst that can happen is that I will be demoted to a commoner. Will the emperor really want to kill me? I am his eldest son in name only!"
“You also said that it is in name only. Besides, throughout history, which emperor did not have blood on his hands? Those who accomplish great things must be ruthless.” Long Feng said.
"What does dad mean?"
"While you are still the eldest prince, his eldest son, let's..."
Long Feng lowered his voice.
-
After the palace banquet, the emperor kept Fu Ciyi and Yan Xinghe.
The three of them went to the imperial study room.
As soon as he entered the imperial study, the emperor's figure shook.
Fu Ciyi and Yan Xinghe supported him from left and right: "Your Majesty."
The emperor waved his hand and said: "The reason why the royal family has great power is because they have military power."
"It seems that Long Yaodong's removal from the throne has angered them. However, the royal family has been taking advantage of their seniority for a long time. From now on, if you go against the royal family, I may not support you on the surface, but I will support you in reality."
The two nodded: "Yes, Your Majesty."
The emperor then asked, "Do you two have a backup list? If not, I will order someone to glue the list I just tore up."
Fu Ciyi and Yan Xinghe looked at each other and smiled.
“There are backups.”
"You guys, you do things flawlessly. It's really rare that Yan Cheng and Long Yi can speak for you today."
The emperor laughed.
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty!"
"Do you really think I'm praising you?" The emperor's face suddenly darkened. "Half of the court officials are in power. If we really deal with them, it will be a threat to the country."
"Your Majesty, what do you think?" Fu Ciyi asked directly.
"I probably won't have the chance to deal with them. I'll leave it to the future emperor."
Hearing him say this, Yan Xinghe boldly asked: "Does the emperor have a candidate for the new crown prince in mind?"
"I haven't thought about it yet." The emperor waved his hand, "Okay, it's getting late, you can go back."
"Yes."
The two men bowed and left.
"Wait." The emperor called to them.
"emperor?"
"Beauty Zhuangzi, you are responsible for clearing the mess and leaving no hidden dangers."
He is currently in poor health, and the national foundation must not be touched.
The two of them had no choice but to say, "Yes."
When they left the palace and arrived at their car, Yan Xinghe lowered his voice and said, "Brother-in-law, who do you think will be the new crown prince?"
Fu Ciyi said softly: "The Second Prince or the Third Prince, the others are even less capable than them."
In fact, these princes were all insignificant.
Inside the Fu family's car, Yan Funing lifted the curtain and said, "My husband, it's late, let's go home." She moved her eyes to her second brother, "Second brother, go home too. Dad will probably have a lot to ask you."
The two people outside the carriage then got on their own.
