After rebirth, I married the emperor's uncle and overthrew my ex-husband's kingdom
Chapter 444: What big event happened in Beijing?
Qi Yue frowned, but he also understood his father's painstaking efforts, "Then I will send someone to find my younger brother."
On the other side, Lu Xuan rode at full speed to Yucheng, cleverly avoided the prince's eyes, and immediately sent a letter to his grandfather.
When Lu Zhenguo received the news, he immediately rushed to Yucheng with two thousand people and rushed directly into Ramadan Villa.
The prince's men had just packed their weapons and were preparing to disguise themselves as a merchant caravan to head to the northern border when they were intercepted.
Lu Zhenguo took out a long knife and pointed his thumb at the sharp blade. Looking at the cut on his fingertip, he laughed heartily, "Good! Good! Good!"
The imperial court controls the iron mines, and they have not seen new weapons for many years. Now that they have these good things, they can reduce casualties when dealing with the barbarians in the future.
"Dad, did you receive the letter that grandma sent?"
"What letter?"
Lu Zhenguo was stunned, then frowned, "We haven't received any letters in the past few days."
Lu Xuan was shocked. "Could it be that he was robbed on the way? Grandmother already knew that the prince had been making weapons here privately, so she sent a letter to remind him. How could he not receive it?"
Lu Zhenguo's face was gloomy. "I'm afraid the army is not peaceful. Fortunately, you arrived in time, otherwise these weapons would have flowed into the northern border, and the consequences would be disastrous."
He put the weapons in his hand into the wooden box and said, "After sending these weapons back to the army, I will go back to Beijing with you. I am worried about you, the elderly, the weak, the women and the children, who are all at home."
Lu Xuan shook his head. "The prince has the intention of rebellion. Dad, you take people to the northern border and stop the northern border army from entering the capital."
"What big thing happened in Beijing?"
Lu Zhenguo was a little surprised.
The emperor can live for at least another ten or eight years, and the emperor has always favored the crown prince. As long as the emperor dies of old age, the throne will most likely belong to the crown prince.
Lu Xuan told him everything that had happened in the capital during those days, and Lu Zhenguo's face turned pale.
"Are you saying that your aunt was kidnapped by the Third Prince's men during the chaos?"
Lu Xuan did not nod, but expressed his suspicion, "Apart from the Crown Prince, there are only them in the capital."
"What a courageous dog! When I get back, I will skin him alive!"
When Lu was a child, she was raised by Lu Zhenguo. He watched the little girl grow into a graceful young lady.
Now that someone has touched his well-behaved sister, he doesn't care whether he is a member of the royal family or not. When he returns, he will definitely put a sack on him and beat him up!
"Once I find my aunt, I will definitely take revenge."
Before they found the person, they didn't dare to fall out with the Third Prince. After the Crown Prince was dealt with, they would take revenge and pay back their grievances!
At this time in the capital, the prince was furious when he learned that his weapons had been robbed.
"A bunch of rubbish, they can't even do this!"
It would be more painful for this thing to fall into the hands of the Duke of Zhenguo than to kill him. He was so angry that his chest heaved violently.
The prince's confidants hurriedly advised: "Your Highness, calm down. Even if we don't have the weapons, it won't affect our uprising."
The prince took a few deep breaths and suppressed his anger, "Everything shall proceed as planned!"
Back at the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion, Bai Youyou heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that the weapons had been successfully seized.
But she knew that the prince would not let it go. So she said to the old lady, "Grandma, we need to be careful of the prince's revenge next time."
The old lady nodded. "It's okay. Now that he has lost this move, it will be difficult for him to make any big moves in the short term. We just need to step up our precautions."
The Third Prince had gained a lot from the interrogation and was planning how to further suppress the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince had suffered heavy losses this time, so it was a good time to seize the opportunity and pursue the victory.
The Queen was still obsessed with Bai Yaoyao's matter, so she decided to let her son go and find out what Bai Yaoyao's father and brother had to say.
When Bai Yanlang and Bai Mulin were invited to the Third Prince's Mansion, they were trembling with fear and their whole bodies were tense.
Bai Yanlang smiled awkwardly and asked, "Is there something that the Third Prince asked my son and me to come here for?"
Everyone in the capital city knows that they are the prince's gang. Now the third prince has secretly invited them into the palace. If the prince finds out, they will have no way to explain themselves.
The Third Prince smiled, pointed at a chair beside him and said, "It's nothing important. I just have some questions in my mind and I want to seek your help."
Bai Yanlang sat down carefully, his butt only taking up half of the bench, "Your Highness, please speak."
"What is so special about your daughter that the prince treats her differently?"
The Third Prince did not beat around the bush and asked directly, which made Bai Yanlang and Bai Mulin both stunned, and then they both had uncontrollable nervousness on their faces.
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince likes me because I once saved His Highness' life." Bai Yanlang said nervously, "But after Yaoyao entered the palace, she and His Highness the Crown Prince had no further relationship."
The third prince's lips curled up, and his handsome eyebrows slightly raised, "Is it really so?"
Bai Yaoyao saved the prince... He just thought it was ridiculous.
Who is the Crown Prince, and who is Bai Yaoyao? A few days ago, they were caught in bed by the Emperor himself. These two started with love but stopped at etiquette. It's simply a joke!
Looking at the father and son like this, it is clear that something is fishy.
The Third Prince sneered, "Second Master Bai, I am not so easy to fool."
Bai Yanlang and Bai Mulin knelt down in fear. "Your Highness, please understand. I would never dare to deceive you."
"Let's put this aside for now. Are you willing to become my servants?" The Third Prince played with the jade pendant in his hand and said nonchalantly, "If you are willing to serve me, I will not treat you unfairly in the future."
Bai Yanlang raised his head, a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes, "Your Highness, my father and I have always followed His Highness the Crown Prince. It is not gentlemanly for us to betray him now."
The Third Prince sneered, "Humph, I'm afraid you don't know much about the Crown Prince. He can't even protect himself right now. If you persist in your delusion, you'll probably suffer the consequences in the future."
Bai Yanlang also knew a thing or two about the Crown Prince, but if he defected to the Third Prince now, not to mention that the Crown Prince had not been deposed yet, even if he was deposed, killing them would be as easy as crushing an ant.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness." With cold sweat on his forehead, he could only think of delaying the time, "We need to go back and think about this matter."
"Then I'll grant you three days."
Today's mission was just to test the situation, so the Third Prince ordered people to send the father and son away. Looking at their backs that looked like lost dogs, his dark eyes were full of contempt.
Two idiots, do you really think the prince values you?
But at this moment, he was more curious about why the prince valued Bai Yaoyao so much, to the point of even using her father, a fool.
"Someone, keep an eye on them."
A black shadow flashed by, and after the father and son walked out of the mansion and got on the carriage, they both breathed a sigh of relief.
Bai Mulin swallowed his saliva and asked in a trembling voice: "Dad, do you think the Third Prince discovered the secret?"
"Shhhhh!" Bai Yanlang covered his mouth with his hands and lowered his voice: "Be careful, there are ears on the other side of the wall!"
