Luo Jingce's face was a little worried, "You guys should step back first."

"Yes."

Everyone left one after another, sighing.

Zhuang Yi stayed until the end. Luo Jingce noticed it and deliberately kept him.

"Zhuang Yi, do you have anything to say?"

Zhuang Yi pondered for a moment, and finally spoke before Luo Jingce got impatient, "Has Your Highness ever thought about how the account books suddenly appeared in Dali Temple?"

Luo Jingce had not had time to think about this issue. Others seemed to have ignored it, but Zhuang Yi always remembered it.

Luo Jingce's face flashed with solemnity, "What do you mean?"

At present, they have too little information, and Zhuang Yi does not dare to judge lightly. He just thinks this matter is a coincidence.

"Your Highness, just as Princess Huandu was in danger, something happened in Huyang. I always feel that there should be some connection between the two."

It was almost said that Luo Huanhuan was responsible for this matter.

But Luo Huanhuan is just a little princess, can she do so many things?

Zhuang Yi suspected that Luo Huanhuan did not do this, and that someone was helping her behind the scenes.

Huyang has always been under the control of His Highness, and he was extremely careful with things like account books. How could he have missed one, and why it happened to be in Dali Temple like this?

He felt that if something hadn't happened to Luo Huanhuan, perhaps this account book would have been well hidden and would have come out at a critical moment.

This makes it clear who the person who helped Luo Huanhuan has been looking for an opportunity to replace His Highness.

Luo Jingce hesitated. Princess Huandu had been smart since she was a child. She had been by Luo Tingye's side since the death of her biological mother. Despite her young age, she had learned all about Luo Tingye's thoughts. .

Otherwise, it would be impossible for her father to reward her with a fiefdom in Huyang just because of the box of taro sent back.

"In the past, I always thought Huanhuan was just a weak woman and not something to be afraid of, but now it seems that I really underestimate this sister."

Zhuang Yi knew that His Highness was leaning towards Princess Huandu doing everything, "Your Highness, if this matter has something to do with Princess Huandu, the problem would be easily solved. I am afraid that there are other forces in the middle who want to fish in troubled waters. .”

Luo Jingce leaned forward, looking extremely nervous, "What do you mean someone fishes in troubled waters?"

Zhuang Yi replied in a low voice: "Although His Highness is the prince, don't forget that your Highness is not the only prince in the royal family, and he also has the opportunity to inherit the throne."

In addition to the dead Luo Tingye, there were two younger princes in the royal family.

The emperor had long said that he would adopt the two princes to the old prince who had no heirs, so Luo Jingce had never taken them seriously.

But it's hard to say now.

"Do you suspect it's the eighth and ninth brothers?"

Zhuang Yi bent over and said, "Although the two young princes are young, their biological mothers are from prominent families. Once something happens to His Highness, the two young princes will be the logical heirs."

Luo Jingce shook his head, "Father said he would adopt them, and everyone in the clan knows this."

"Although His Majesty said that the two young princes will be adopted, that will happen after the two young princes reach adulthood. Before the adoption, they will still pose a threat to His Highness."

Luo Jingce felt that what Zhuang Yi said made sense.

The throne is so attractive, who wouldn't want it, even if the eighth and ninth princes are young and don't want it, what about their biological mother and their maternal clan?

Don’t you want it too?
He asked Zhuang Yi to write a letter about the adoption of the eighth prince and the ninth prince in advance, and asked the people under the East Palace to start the operation. Then he sent someone to inform the princess to rest in her yard at night.

In the crown prince's bedroom, the palace people were all waiting under the eaves. The room was as quiet as ever, with a bit of warmth, the fragrance of flowers overflowing, and a sweet taste brewing.Song Liyun drank one cup at a time, and the pot of wine quickly ran out.

The maid Chunke couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Your Majesty, you have already drank a pot of wine. This wine is very strong. Drinking too much will be harmful to your health."

Song Liyun was obviously not enjoying himself and said impatiently: "You can get the wine if I ask you to."

Chun Ke hesitated to move, and Song Liyun's blushing cheeks revealed a strange smile, "Once you enter the East Palace, I won't be able to control you, right?"

Chun Ke's face turned pale and he knelt down, "I don't dare, I'm just worried about the health of the Crown Princess. Didn't the doctor say that the Crown Princess shouldn't drink alcohol at the moment?"

When the imperial doctor was mentioned, Song Liyun felt angry.

"My health is very good. The imperial doctors are just looking for trouble. Even if I drink a few glasses of wine, it will interfere with their affairs."

Chun Ke glanced at the door carefully. Fortunately, the palace people were waiting outside, so they probably didn't hear it.

"Your Majesty, be careful."

Caution?

There was a bit of sarcasm on Song Liyun's lips. There were people from the Song family outside, so she didn't need to be careful about what she said even in the East Palace.

After drinking another bottle of wine, Song Liyun still stood firm and did not look drunk at all.

This amount of wine was nothing to her.

She can still drink.

but,

"Your Majesty, it's getting late. I'll serve you and rest."

Song Liyun was indeed a little tired, and he felt a headache in a daze.

Before going to bed, I asked casually, "Who did the prince sleep with tonight?"

"The Crown Prince is still talking to his staff in Zhan Shifu. He is probably going to sleep in the study again tonight. Would the Crown Princess want to send someone over to take a look?"

Song Liyun went to bed directly, with a disgusted tone, "There are so many women in the East Palace that I need to see, but I'm tired today, so let's go to bed early."

Just as he was about to lie down, he saw the palace attendant walking in with a happy face, "Crown Princess, just now His Highness sent a message saying that he will sleep with the Crown Princess tonight."

Everyone in the room had smiles on their faces, but Chun Ke looked at Song Liyun worriedly.

Song Liyun frowned slightly, and the disgust on his face became even worse, "Why does the well-behaved prince suddenly want to come to this palace to rest?"

The palace messenger who sent the message was puzzled, "Wouldn't it be better for Your Highness to come to the Crown Princess' place to rest? It's better than taking advantage of those women."

Of course it’s not good?
Song Liyun's breathing was a little heavier.

Chun Ke glanced at the Crown Princess and quickly explained, "Isn't the Crown Prince resting with some of the concubines these days? Why did he suddenly come over? Did someone say something?"

"I don't know, this servant doesn't know. It was Xiao Anzi who was next to His Highness the Crown Prince who came to deliver the message."

Song Liyun suddenly woke up a little and waved his hand to let everyone in the room go out.

Chun Ke saw that the Crown Princess had a foul look on her face and was worried that she would kick the Crown Prince out. "My Lady, I have asked you to make some sobering soup. Please drink a little, so as not to infect His Highness."

Song Liyun said in a cold voice, "I had no intention of serving the Crown Prince." (End of Chapter)
