After rebirth, I was entangled by the Regent

Chapter 141 Xiao Yanchen suffered a great loss

Early the next morning, the main gate of the East Palace was filled with corpses. By the time Xiao Yanchen discovered them, the news had already spread among the people of the capital. Xiao Cheng was furious.

"Father, I really don't know." Xiao Yanchen didn't expect that He Jing'an would be so hateful. No news from He Jing'an was sent back yesterday. Xiao Yanchen had immediately executed all the family members of those assassins, but there were still three people who had not been found. Could it be that those people leaked the news?

"Don't know? Don't you know that those people climbed up the gate of your East Palace after they died?" Xiao Cheng looked at his eldest son in front of him. He didn't know who was hurt by these people.

"I am truly wronged, and my father asked me to reflect on myself. I have never left the house, and everyone in the Eastern Palace can attest to that." Xiao Yanchen could only deny it with all his might now.

"The Eastern Palace is full of your people, do you think I'm a fool? Who do you want to kill among those people?" Xiao Cheng didn't waste any more words with him: "Say..."

"I'm really not your son."

At this time, a eunuch came in, whispered a few words in Xiao Cheng's ear, and handed over a memorial. After reading it, Xiao Cheng became furious and slapped it directly in Xiao Yanchen's face: "Do you want to kill He Jing'an or A Yi?"

"Xiao Yanchen, you are really great. You actually did so many things behind my back. When I appointed you as the Crown Prince, you should have known whose property you stole. You should have cultivated your character and studied hard. But you only did dirty things behind my back. If these things were really exposed, tell me, what would you do?"

Xiao Yanchen looked at the contents of the memorial. It must be those three people who told Xiao Yi. Xiao Yanchen's eyes turned quickly. In the previous life, these things did not happen because Xiao Yi did not return to the capital.

He knew Xiao Yi's temper. If he hadn't touched his reverse scale, he would never tell his father about these things. That was why he kept testing him every time.

"Xiao Yanchen, you know that Ayi won't tell me, so you are unscrupulous, right? I tell you, your position as the crown prince was given by me. Since I can give it, I can also take it back."

"Father, please calm down. Father, I was wronged. I did not intend to harm your uncle, nor did I send anyone to harm Marquis Chengyang. Maybe, maybe my staff felt... felt that I was wronged, and there was a traitor around me. Qingfeng, father, Qingfeng is Qingfeng's man... maybe... maybe..."

"Maybe it's something? Did Ayi wrong you? Wronged, what kind of grievance did you suffer..." Xiao Cheng looked at Xiao Yanchen, really disappointed: "Your staff dared to take action against the Regent without your authorization. Since you said so, I will grant your wish."

"Come here, draft the decree immediately." Xiao Cheng waved his pen and threw the imperial edict in front of Xiao Yanchen: "You go to the East Palace to announce the decree yourself."

Xiao Yanchen looked at the content and kowtowed heavily: "Father, please calm down, Father..."

"Go now, otherwise, you will not be able to be the crown prince." Xiao Yanchen had no choice but to thank him and walk out of the palace.

Xiao Yanchen looked viciously at Xiao Cheng who was sitting on the throne behind him: "Father, you are so cruel."

Xiao Yanchen brought the imperial edict to the Eastern Palace and executed all the staff. When the staff died, they looked at Xiao Yanchen in disbelief, wondering why the prince had inexplicably abandoned them.

This matter spread throughout the capital. Now, no aide dared to really recommend himself to the prince, and Xiao Yanchen suffered a great loss.
