Chapter 90: Trash, why not just catch him?

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Chengqian walked in wearing a bright yellow four-clawed dragon robe.

Seeing the palace maid lying on the ground and being strangled to death, his face suddenly turned gloomy, and Shen Wan'er subconsciously hid behind Li Chengping.

"Third brother, you have gone too far. You actually dared to wantonly kill palace maids in Guangxin Palace. I will let His Majesty punish you!"

Li Chengqian's eyes widened with anger.

"Okay, then please hurry up, Prince. If it's too late, Father might be asleep."

Li Chengping crossed his arms, looking like he was waiting.

"Okay, I'll go now!"

Li Chengqian was filled with anger and turned to walk outside. Just as he was about to leave, Li Yunrui stopped him.

"Your Highness, please stay!"

"This is just a small matter. Don't bother your majesty. I can handle it myself."

When Li Chengqian heard his aunt speak, he stopped even though he didn't understand.

"Third brother, since the eldest princess pleaded for you this time, I'll let you go. You'll be in trouble next time!"

Li Chengqian snorted coldly.

Li Chengping was not angry either. He turned around and smiled at Li Yunrui.

"Thank you, Princess, for your generosity. But you need to discipline the servants around you more in the future, so that they won't be disrespectful!"

After saying that, Li Chengping left with Shen Wan'er.

Li Yunrui sat in the house with a sullen face, not saying a word.

"Aunt, please be careful and don't get yourself hurt by getting angry."

Li Chengqian said carefully.

The quiet atmosphere was broken as Li Yunrui grabbed the tea set on the table and smashed it to pieces.

After throwing and smashing things around, venting all her anger, she finally returned to normal.

"Get out, you annoying guys, what are you doing here? Get out!"

Li Yunrui yelled.

The palace maids present were so frightened that they knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and carefully left, carrying the corpse on the ground.

After everyone left, Li Yunrui collapsed from his seat to the ground.

"aunt……"

Li Chengqian quickly ran forward and hugged Li Yunrui, intending to say a few words of comfort, but who would have thought that he would be slapped in the face instead.

"Useless! Why didn't you lead the troops to capture Li Chengping? You are the crown prince, don't you even have this little courage?"

Li Yunrui looked angry.

"Aunt, the third brother is still a prince after all. Without the imperial edict from my father, I have no right to take action against him."

Li Chengqian felt very aggrieved.

He was just a prince, not an emperor. Moreover, Li Chengping's influence spread all over the world. If he captured him, wouldn't he be scolded by scholars all over the world?

After cursing for a few times, Li Yunrui felt much better. He pushed Li Chengqian away, sat back in his seat, and his expression became cold again.

"Okay, this is none of your business, go back first."

"aunt……"

Li Chengqian wanted to say something, but seeing Li Yunrui's impatient look, he swallowed his words and turned away.

When Li Chengqian walked away, Li Yunrui's face turned gloomy.

"Someone, tell Yan Xiaoyi to come see me!"

At the command, Yan Xiaoyi quickly walked into the palace.

"Your servant Yan Xiaoyi pays respect to the Princess."

"Yan Xiaoyi, as the commander of the imperial guards, why didn't you stop Li Chengping when he came in just now?"

Li Yunrui asked.

If Yan Xiaoyi could stop them for a moment, as long as she had someone take Shen Wan'er away, it would be up to her to decide whether she would catch someone or not.

But who would have expected to be caught red-handed, leaving her speechless.

"In reply to the Princess, the duty of the Imperial Guards is to protect the safety of the Imperial Palace. The Third Prince did not do anything dangerous."

"Besides, I didn't receive your order."

After hearing Yan Xiaoyi's answer, Li Yunrui didn't know what to say for a moment, as if he had punched cotton. He felt weak and powerless.

"Alright, alright, go down first. Remember, don't tell anyone about what happened tonight."

"I understand."

Watching Yan Xiaoyi leave, Li Yunrui's expression became terribly gloomy.

In fact, her plan could be said to be flawless, except for one small omission, which was that she did not expect Li Chengping to enter the palace late at night.

As long as Shen Wan'er can get through tonight, she can send someone to expose Li Chengping's treason in the court tomorrow.

As for whether Shen Wan'er would agree to help, it didn't matter at all.

There is a term called "confession under torture".

It's a pity that she never expected Li Chengping to be so brave. He not only broke into the palace and took people away, but also killed her personal maid.

Unfortunately, she was in the wrong and had to bear the loss in silence.

Thinking back to Li Chengqian's cowardice, Li Yunrui felt extremely upset.

"I should have chosen the third one earlier."

Li Yunrui muttered to himself.

She seemed to have forgotten that she had tried before, but unfortunately Li Chengping didn't like her at all.

The palace is very quiet at night.

Shen Wan'er was so frightened that her palms were covered in cold sweat. She followed Li Chengping closely, afraid of getting lost.

Li Chengping also noticed the other party's emotions and deliberately slowed down his pace to ensure that Shen Wan'er could keep up.

at this time.

At the corner ahead, a dark shadow suddenly appeared, and Shen Wan'er was so scared that she quickly shrank behind Li Chengping.

"Eunuch Hou, you are already so old, and you still like to make such jokes."

Li Chengping snorted in annoyance.

Eunuch Hou smiled in the dark, lit the lantern in his hand, walked forward and bowed.

"Third Prince, His Majesty invites you."

"This……"

Li Chengping wanted to agree, but when he saw Shen Wan'er looking frightened, he frowned.

I had originally thought of finding a young eunuch to escort Shen Wan'er out of the palace, but now it seems that this method doesn't work.

"Eunuch Hou, my sister is a little timid. I will send her out of the palace first."

"Of course, I will hold the lamp for you two in front."

Eunuch Hou smiled and took the initiative to lead the way.

Soon we arrived at the gate of the palace.

Zhang Han was guarding the carriage with twenty fully armed Iron Eagle swordsmen. When he saw Li Chengping appear, he hurried forward to meet him.

"Your Highness, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, you guys escort her back first, I'll go back by myself later."

"Yes!"

Zhang Han nodded, helped Shen Wan'er get into the carriage and disappeared into the night.

Looking at the orderly steps of the Iron Eagle Swordsmen, a strange look flashed in Eunuch Hou's eyes.

As a close attendant of Emperor Qing, although his cultivation is not high, he has a sharp eye and can see the extraordinary qualities of the Iron Eagle Swordsman at a glance.

"Father-in-law, let's go."

"Yes, yes, look at this old servant's memory. Your Highness, please follow me."

Inside the Yangxin Hall.

Emperor Qing was leaning on the bed, holding a collection of poems in his hands, which contained hundreds of poems that Li Chengping had sung drunkenly in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

"Your Majesty, the Third Prince has arrived."

At this time, Eunuch Hou's gentle voice sounded in his ears. Emperor Qing raised his head, glanced at Li Chengping who was standing three meters away in front of him, and waved his hand.

Eunuch Hou understood the meaning, lowered his head and walked out, not forgetting to close the door before leaving.
