After giving up being the wife of a powerful official, Ling Yunlu became a concubine

Xiao Minshen ordered someone to send Liu Shishi back to her room.

As for what Liu Shishi wants to do, he does not interfere.

As long as it doesn't cause trouble to Prince Qi's Mansion.

After Liu Shishi returned to the house, she sat for a while, changed her clothes, called a taxi, and went out.

When Xiao Minshen heard Fulu coming to report, he just asked Fulu to send someone to follow him.

After all, Liu Shishi is nominally still the concubine of the Prince of Qi.

It was very late when Liu Shishi returned to Prince Qi's Mansion. There was a big slap mark on her face, and there were also traces of crying on her face.

After hearing the reply, Xiao Minshen calmly sealed the letter in his hand.

The night passed quickly and a fresh day began.

Xiao Minshen put on his court robes and gave instructions to Shen Yunjin.

"Today, the servants of Prince Qi's Mansion are not allowed to leave the mansion."

"Don't ask the soldiers at the gate about what's going on in the palace, and don't worry about me."

"At the latest, the day after tomorrow, I will be able to come back."

Shen Yunjin was very panicked and she grabbed Xiao Minshen's hand.

"My Lord, please take care of yourself. My concubine and the children cannot live without you!"

Xiao Minshen hugged her and said, "Don't worry, I know what's going on."

After saying that, Xiao Minshen let go of Shen Yunjin and walked out.

"Fulu, have the secret guards guard Concubine Shen's room securely."

"If someone uses the emperor's excuse to let them enter the palace, they will all decline on the grounds that Concubine Shen is ill."

"If the person insists on forcing his way in, just kill him!"

When Xiao Minshen finished speaking, there was a sinister tone in his voice.

"Yes!" Fulu responded firmly.

In front of the palace gate, all the ministers who were attending the morning court arrived in their carriages.

Xiao Minshen got off the carriage and blended into the crowd attending the morning court.

Today, everyone was silent, without the relaxed conversations of the past.

After all the court officials had lined up, the eunuch opened the palace door.

Everyone filed in and stood in their respective positions.

The second prince had already paid homage to the Imperial Ancestral Temple early in the morning.

Now he was wearing a brand new dragon robe and came to the imperial palace, ready to accept the kowtow of civil and military officials.

Standing in the imperial palace, the second prince was in high spirits.

This is different from the usual feeling of standing in this position.

From now on, he will have the final say in this world!

Civil and military officials all knelt down.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"Everyone is safe!"

After the second prince finished speaking, he prepared to sit down on the dragon throne.

At this moment, the palace door suddenly opened.

Xiao Minyong walked in.

The eunuch behind the second prince waved his hand, and a group of guards with swords put the knives to Xiao Minyong's neck.

The second prince waved his hand and the guards put away their swords.

"Why, Third Brother, are you here to watch the ceremony?"

Xiao Minyong looked at the arrogant Second Prince and suddenly smiled at him.

"Brother, how can you ascend the throne without the imperial seal? This is unreasonable!"

The second prince narrowed his eyes. What did Xiao Minyong mean by this?

"The imperial seal was taken away by the former crown prince, who fell into the river and his body has not even been found."

"Oh? Doesn't that mean that Second Brother doesn't have the imperial seal? Then how should we seal the imperial edicts in the future?"

"Could it be that Third Brother means that the Imperial Seal is in your hands? Are you here to give the Imperial Seal to Second Brother?"

"Brother, you are joking. I am here to send my father back to the palace!"

All the officials were in an uproar!

Didn't they say that the emperor was killed by the crown prince and the queen? Now, how could he be resurrected from the dead?

If the emperor was not dead, then the rumor that the prince killed the emperor was just a rumor.

It seems that the rumor was spread by the second prince in the palace!

All the officials were talking about it, and the hall suddenly became noisy.

Xiao Minshen stood aside with his head lowered, his eyes on his nose and his nose on his heart.

Lord Shen and Han Yang glanced at King Qi, then lowered their heads and remained silent.

As soon as Xiao Minyong finished speaking, Eunuch An and the Emperor appeared at the door.

Although the emperor looked very pale, he was indeed alive.

The second prince reacted for a moment and immediately rushed in front of the emperor.

"Father, are you really not dead?"

"That's great! I thought you were dead and couldn't sleep well day and night!"

After saying this, the second prince cried in agony.

The emperor was very weak, with half of his body leaning on Eunuch An.

"Get up."

He slowly walked past the second prince and sat on the dragon throne.

Eunuch An stood in front of the palace: "If you have something to say, please report it. If not, please leave the court!"

All the civil and military officials were confused. They had just started court and were about to leave?

However, the emperor is still alive, which is a good thing.

At least, many people don’t have to worry about it, because their heads will be moved.

The court officials withdrew from the court, but Xiao Minshen and others were retained by the emperor.

Then, the emperor issued a series of imperial edicts.

The queen secretly replaced the royal bloodline, and conspired with the prince to murder the emperor. She took away her title of queen and imprisoned her in the clan house.

The queen's family members were all confiscated and put in prison, to be executed in the autumn.

Xiao Minxuan was not of royal blood, he seized the crown prince's throne, and conspired with the queen to murder the emperor. He should have been torn into pieces by five horses.

However, because Xiao Minxuan fell into the water and died, the punishment was pardoned.

Xiao Minyong was rewarded for saving the emperor, and his title as prince was restored and returned to the prince's mansion.

When the second prince heard that the emperor rewarded the third prince for his service in saving the emperor, he secretly felt hatred in his heart.

The third brother did nothing but save his father, which enabled him to restore his father's throne as the prince.

He worked hard for a while but got nothing in return.

This kind of hatred could not be suppressed when Eunuch An took out the jade seal to stamp it.

He searched all over the capital for the imperial seal but couldn't find it, and now it's with the emperor.

The third brother always knew that the emperor was not dead, but he saw him jumping up and down in preparation for ascending the throne.

It turns out that the third brother is his biggest enemy.

Xiao Minyong kowtowed to the emperor happily, "Thank you, father!"

"Since you have been reinstated as the prince, bring back the three concubines and the children."

After the emperor finished speaking, he began to gasp for breath.

Eunuch An hurriedly took out a pill from his arms and fed it to the emperor.

After the emperor swallowed it, he finally recovered.

"The fourth prince, Xiao Minlie, recommended the nameless Taoist priest, which caused the emperor's health to be damaged. He was stripped of his title of prince and demoted to a commoner. He can go to his fiefdom and cannot return to the palace without an imperial edict."

The fourth prince's legs went limp and he knelt down.

"Your Majesty, you are wronged. I didn't know that Taoist priest was trying to murder you!"

"Father, that old Taoist is the crown prince. No, it was Xiao Minxuan who asked me to introduce him to you. Please understand!"

At the beginning, it was the prince who hinted to him that the emperor wanted to cultivate the art of immortality.

He also hinted to him that there was a Taoist priest who specialized in this.

If he was not busy with official duties, he would go and invite people in person.

In this way, my father will definitely be very happy.

After hearing this, he patted his chest and said that he had plenty of time and would go and invite the Taoist priest.

The prince told him the Taoist's message and urged him to set off quickly.

Now that he thought about it, it was a trap set for him by the prince!
