"His Royal Highness, just say what you want to say. I am all ears."
Strange, obviously they were brothers who played together in the past, but the current atmosphere is even stranger than strangers.
The prince and the king of Wu just looked at each other quietly, as if they had been a few years ago, but the two brothers who had a good understanding at that time now regarded each other as dead.
The reason for all this is just the ownership of the throne.
So sometimes King Wu often thought, why not be an idle king?
But the answer is already there.
Neither Empress Zhou nor the Crown Prince could tolerate a person who was more qualified and capable of being a Crown Prince or even an Emperor than themselves living in this world.
For the sake of self-protection and the longevity of the throne, he finally chose to resist.
The peace of the past is all here, and the old life is here.
"Has King Wu heard any news from the court recently?"
"Why do you need to test your Majesty the Crown Prince? I have stayed in Yuanshui Palace for a long time. At best it is called enjoyment, at worst, I am under house arrest. I can't even see anyone in the palace. How can I know the news in the court?"
Faced with King Wu's sarcasm, the prince remained unmoved and continued: ""
"Recently, under the name of Prince Wu's palace, several people have been buying up medicine shops in Chang'an City. Does Prince Wu know about this?"
Of course King Wu didn't know, but after thinking about it carefully, Ye Qing probably did this. Without a moment's hesitation, he nodded and responded: "Of course I know. You might as well say that I told them to do this before coming to Chang'an. Yes.
Why not?"
"It's not that there's anything wrong with it, it's just that those few people were mean and resorted to all possible means, which made the drug store in Chang'an City resentful and dissatisfied. They even brought it to the court, which was a disgrace to the Tian family's reputation. But this matter is, after all, a matter to Prince Wu's family.
After much thought about the matter, I still think it would be best for King Wu to come forward in person."
"What's there to show for it? Li Tang is the Li Tang of our Li family. Not to mention robbing their business, what if we kill them all? His Highness the Crown Prince is still too soft-hearted. The huge profits from the drug store industry are so high.
How can it be done in the hands of our heavenly family?"
King Wu waved his hand nonchalantly, as if he really didn't take this matter seriously. The prince half-squinted his eyes, and after a long silence, he suddenly smiled.
"What King Wu said is reasonable. Even this empire belongs to our Li family, so what if we do some business? I will go back and respond to the courtiers."
"I'm sorry for bothering you, Prince."
After sending the prince out of Yuanshui Palace, King Wu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Ye Qing had not told King Wu about this matter beforehand, so the prince's arrival caught him off guard.
After all, once King Wu shows an uninformed attitude, it can be basically concluded that someone is behind the scenes to get King Wu to leave Chang'an, and then Ye Qing and others will be in trouble.
"So, whether this thing can be done or not depends on your brother's acting skills."
In Prince Wu's Mansion, Ye Qing opened his mouth, and Li Yuechan stuffed a broken grape into his mouth, which was very satisfying.
"My brother can definitely do it!"
"That's not necessarily true. Just because a trader has talent doesn't mean he has talent as an emperor. In fact, I'm more optimistic about the current crown prince. How about we take advantage of the fact that there's no problem now, and you go back to your palace, and I'll go to my imperial capital, and we'll start from now on
Forget each other in the world."
"Anyway, I believe in brother."
Li Yuechan knew that she could not defeat Ye Qing, so she could only keep peeling the grapes with a frown. During this period of time, she seemed to have adapted to the identity of Ye Qing's maid, and she could complete what she needed to do perfectly without Ye Qing's reminder.
"Ah, okay, okay, your brother is the most powerful, okay?"
Ye Qing said, rolling his eyes subconsciously, swatting away the grapes handed over by Li Yuechan, and Ye Qing slowly stood up.
"You should eat it, it's so sour."
"It costs a lot of money to have grapes this season. Do you want to leave?"
"Well... after being here for so long, it's time to explore the reality of the palace. If I don't come back in ten days, let Governor Lin take you to Liangzhou City of the Qingfeng Empire. I have a house there. If I come back
, maybe I can bring your brother with me."
Hearing this, Li Yuechan stood up suddenly, looked nervous, and said: "Is it so dangerous?"
"That's the palace, shouldn't you just go to your back garden if you want? It shouldn't be a big problem, but it doesn't rule out that there are strong people hiding in the dark... Why are you worried about me?"
"No one is worried about you."
Li Yuechan snorted coldly, but her hands tightly held the corner of Ye Qing's clothes, unwilling to see him take risks.
"You and I are not married, are you afraid that if I die you will become a widow?"
"That's not what I meant! I..."
The words were clearly on her lips, but looking at the smile on Ye Qing's face, Li Yuechan couldn't say anything no matter what, so she could only release her fingers and let him leave.
Ye Qing turned around and came to the door, suddenly muttering something unclear, but Li Yuechan heard it clearly.
"If something happens here and I can be safe and sound, please follow me to the Qingfeng Empire."
The meaning behind the words is self-evident.
"That's why I said, habits are terrible..."
Although they have only lived together for more than ten days, the two of them seem to be used to having each other by their side. It's just that the last layer of window paper has never been revealed.
But Ye Qing also knew that he could not continue like this.
Jumping to the roof, Ye Qing took advantage of the darkness and kept flying, quickly approaching the palace.
He made this decision after thinking for a long time.
What is the current situation of the Li Tang Empire, whether Queen Zhou has completely taken control of the court, whether King Wu's biological father, and whether the emperor of the Li Tang Empire has reached the end of his power, all these require Ye Qing to see in person to know.
When we arrived outside the palace, the city walls were still brightly lit, with nearly a thousand guardsmen patrolling and guarding the city.
Fortunately, with Ye Qing's methods, sneaking into the palace was not too troublesome.
After hiding his aura, Ye Qing climbed over the city wall at a blind spot in his field of vision and sneaked into the palace.
Regarding the branches in the palace, Ye Qing had a basic idea during this period. Although it was not clear where King Wu was under house arrest, it was not difficult to find him. Before that, Ye Qing had other things to do.
Exploring his spiritual consciousness, Ye Qing immediately noticed the raging aura of no less than a hundred demons. It was obvious that those were people from the demonic path.
And they are also one of Ye Qing's goals during this trip.
If he wants to remain undetected inside the palace and still make small moves from time to time, the Demon Emperor's Seal is undoubtedly Ye Qing's biggest support!
"Then it's up to you, go where there's noise and fight some more!"
Ye Qing sneered and took out a bottle of blood essence that exuded a violent aura from his arms.
"Xuantian Picture Book!"
Essence and blood flowed out, and a monster beast with ink mist lingering all over its body instantly condensed in front of Ye Qing!
