"Prince Ren, why did you invite me to come here at Yeyue?" The Crown Princess lowered her head, not daring to let others notice her.

Her pregnant belly was already visibly pregnant at six months, so she came late at night, so she had to hide her pregnant belly and put on loose clothes, which made her look a little bloated.

In fact, she didn't really want to come, but there must be a reason why Yu Li invited her to come. Her current situation is precarious and she needs to be stabilized urgently.

If you can take advantage of the opportunity and use this plan, you will earn yourself an extra level of protection.

"Princess, your brother died at the hands of Prince Chengning, your father was demoted at home because of Prince Chengning and King Xining, and now you have become a thorn in the Queen's side because of the Du family's son-in-law. Even though

She is pregnant, so she must be frightened every step of the way, right?" Ren Yuli leaned in front of the cell door and said teasingly, if he didn't look so dirty and embarrassed, how could he tell the appearance of a prisoner?

There was a bit of embarrassment in the Crown Princess's expression, and she couldn't help but grit her teeth and stabbed Ren Yuli a few words, "Is it possible that Crown Prince Ren made an appointment with me late at night just to seduce me? If so, Crown Prince may as well worry about his own situation.

It’s shocking, but I’m still unscathed, but you, my eldest son, are now a prisoner and your life is in danger.”

"I can help Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess get out of her current predicament. Naturally, I also need the Crown Princess' help to get out of my current situation." Ren Yuli didn't care at all about the sarcasm in the Crown Princess's words.

"Escape? Seeing blood in the Imperial Ancestral Temple is a capital crime. How do you get out of trouble? Besides, you can't protect yourself now. How can you say you can help me get out of trouble?" The Crown Princess's eyes were filled with confusion and confusion, but she was vaguely curious in her heart.

"I have my own way, but I have to rely on your help, Crown Princess." Ren Yuli said.

The Crown Princess narrowed her eyes, thoughtfully, as if she wanted to distinguish the truth from Ren Yuli's words. After a long while, she said: "Even if you really have a way to get out of trouble, why should I believe that you can do it?"

What about what you said?"

Getting out of trouble is easier said than done?

Her mother's family has no hope now. The prince is stupid and has been tricked by others many times. It is still up to her to keep his position as prince.

It is really not easy for her to stabilize her position.

If it were in the past, she would be happy if Ren Yuli extended an olive branch to her. But now, how does she know that Ren Yuli will not kill the donkey?

She knew very well that if someone like Ren Yuli could escape unscathed, how could he be willing to help her?

Ren Yuli is a descendant of the Holy Mother's family and a close confidant of the Holy One. He is favored by the Holy One. He is also an official in the southeast who controls a large number of soldiers. How can she be on the same level as him? As long as he has no merits and demerits, he can enjoy the glory in peace, but

Although she is the crown princess, her status is precarious.

"Of course I will offer my sincerity in advance. All I need is your nod, Crown Princess." Ren Yuli wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes obscured, making it difficult to see his emotions clearly.

Linyin, Linyin, I'm afraid it won't be solved with just a lantern this time.

"Sincerity?" The Crown Princess was very interested, as if she was very curious. At this time, what else can Ren Yuli show sincerity that would satisfy her.

"What do the Crown Princess think of Cheng Ninghou's family?" Ren Yuli's eyes darkened.

Linyin, a husband in name only, really has no need to continue living. I don't know why Linyin kept this marriage for a long time. In this case, let him help her.

That's fine, I just don't know who the person who gave her the lantern was.

"The Crown Princess went to meet Ren Yuli in private?" Yuan Ce frowned slightly.

Emperor Xingde probably still wanted to keep Ren Yuli, so he did not imprison him in Dali Temple or the Ministry of Punishment. Instead, he placed him in a prison in the palace and handed him over to the imperial guards to take care of him.

Lu Xingzhou gained the trust of Emperor Xingde after Cheng Ninghou made many mistakes. He had a wide network of eyes among the Forbidden Army. Once there was any trouble, it would be difficult to hide it from his eyes.

"Indeed." Zhou Xi nodded.

Yuan Ce pondered, "Although the Crown Princess has lost power, she has already won the favor of the Crown Prince because she protected the Crown Prince last time.

In addition, now that the Queen has angered Jinshang and the Crown Princess manages the affairs of the harem, she can do a lot. As Yuli is wise, if the Crown Princess helps, there may be room for change."

"Even if the Crown Princess can take action, she may not be willing to help." Zhou Xi said uncertainly.

Yuan Ce shook his head, "If Ren Yuli can escape unharmed this time, then Ren Yuli will be a far greater help to the Xu family than the Crown Princess. The Crown Princess is in a critical situation and is very likely to take action.

It's just that the Crown Princess won't trust him for nothing. He will definitely show his sincerity, and when he gets out of trouble, he will definitely drag others into trouble. It's either A Yin or Du Guangji."

Thinking of this, Yuan Ce couldn't help but become a little more nervous. He looked at Zhou Xi and warned: "Go and order Xingzhou to keep an eye on him. If there is any trouble in the Ancestral Temple or the prison, you must inform him."

Zhou Xi nodded and retreated.

It was dark, and the Imperial Guards were patrolling the prison.

The general who was patrolling on a snowy and windy night shuddered and planned to change his guard after completing his patrol.

There are very few people living here. It is said that they are on patrol, but after all, the one they want to keep an eye on is just Ren Yuli.

He went to Ren Yuli's prison to take a look but found a horrifying scene. Ren Yuli was leaning on the ground, vomiting black blood.

"Come...come..." Ren Yuli's voice was hoarse, his face was pale, and he was almost dying.

"Here comes——" Lang Jiang was startled and shouted quickly.

This is a descendant of the Holy Mother's family, and he is also the general in command of the three armies. The Holy Lord has not asked any questions, but if something happened, they will not be able to eat and just walk away.

The shocking turn of events in Tianlao quickly reached Yuan Ce's ears.

He looked at Zhou Xi, "How is the situation?"

"The imperial doctor said it was poisoning. Could it be that the eldest princess took action?" Zhou Xi said suspiciously.

The eldest princess of Hengyang has great ears and eyes in the palace, so the news that the princess went to see Ren Yuli may not have been hidden from her.

It is impossible for the eldest princess to clean up her daughter's life after learning about this.

"It is impossible for Aunt Hengyang to use such a method. This cannot be Aunt Hengyang's handiwork." Yuan Ce shook his head, put on his clothes, and continued to ask: "Do you know the reason for the poisoning? Is it food?"

"No, it's not because of the food. According to the imperial doctor, he has been poisoned for a long time. It's just that the poison is chronic and dose-dependent. It is a drug from Dongyi. It will only take effect after a certain amount, and it will take effect very quickly." Zhou

Xi reminded.

Yuan Ce was startled, as if he had thought of something. He checked his pulse and understood.

Sure enough.
