The words are divided into two parts.

Everyone left the imperial study, and the prime minister left first as he was anxious to finish the work at hand.

Mo Linfeng lowered his eyes to hide his expression and suddenly said, "I suddenly remembered that Shuangyue left something with me. It might be a clue, but I can't figure out how to use it."

Everyone knew that Shen Shuangyue had a secret, and no one doubted Mo Linfeng's words.

Everyone, including the Sixth Prince, followed Mo Linfeng to the small dark room, but they didn't expect that Mo Linfeng would press a mechanism at the door. Iron pillars instantly rose in the room and locked everyone in.

Mo Linfeng stood in the darkness and whispered, "The time after Frost Moon is mine. You can only spend the rest of your life here."

Therefore, as soon as the emperor called the third prince into the palace, he heard the news that Mo Linfeng had imprisoned everyone.

He slammed the table in anger and said, "Call the Prime Minister back to me!"

"Your Majesty, please be patient." The Third Prince stopped Eunuch Xu. "According to your analysis, Mo Linfeng is using this method to avoid a massacre. He has imprisoned my fifth brother and the others to prevent me from getting close."

The third prince was the emperor's secret executioner, controlling the royal guards and intelligence network. As a result, he took a highly toxic drug and lost his chance of becoming emperor.

Therefore, he knew the most comprehensive information, for example: Mo Linfeng went on a killing spree in the later period because he became mentally ill due to stimulation.

The emperor laughed in anger at the Third Prince's words, "Third Prince, listen to yourself, are your words reasonable? If he doesn't want to kill people, then he should just lock himself up!"

The Third Prince sighed, "Father, I can only say that the person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it. Even if you torture Mo Linfeng to death, he won't tell you how to open the mechanism. Instead, it will only make his condition worse."

The emperor rubbed his brows and said, "Let's put their affairs aside for now and talk about your business first. Do you have any feelings for Miss Shen?"

The Third Prince smiled bleakly, "Since I chose this path, I have accepted my fate. I do not want to have any contact with Miss Shen."

A kind person will sigh even when seeing a stranger leave, let alone someone he knows well?

Even if Shen Shuangyue changed his fate, the poison in his body would not allow him to live for long, so there was no need to add to Shen Shuangyue's troubles.

The emperor's eyes flickered slightly, "So you mean, you have a crush on Shen Shuangyue?"

The Third Prince's pale face flushed, and he said stubbornly, "Father, I don't have any."

"So, do you choose to admit that you like Miss Shen, or do you choose that I wake her up now and ask her to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to deal with Mo Linfeng?"

The Third Prince's pupils slightly dilated, and then he said in a deflated tone, "Father, I admit that I fell in love with Miss Shen at first sight."

"Love at first sight?" The emperor asked quickly, "Where did you first see her?"

The Third Prince lowered his eyes, a little sour in them, "In the coffin."

emperor:"……"

It took him a long time to find his voice. "You mean, Shen Shuangyue was a corpse at that time?"

"Yes." The third prince nodded.

The emperor fell silent again.

Shao Qing said with a headache: "Then according to your vision, only Shen Shuangyue is suitable for you."

After all, no one can be resurrected except Shen Shuangyue!

The third prince lowered his head to hide the calculation in his eyes. Although he did not dare to get along with Shen Shuangyue and only wanted to keep his feelings hidden in his heart, it did not mean that he could accept his father's arrangement of another marriage for him.

This answer would perfectly prevent his father from finding a qualified person to marry him.

What's more, he didn't lie. When he first met Shen Shuangyue, she was indeed in a coffin.

Countless people kowtowed around the coffin to express their gratitude. Shen Shuangyue, lying in the coffin, had her clothes stained red with blood and a relieved smile on her face.

He couldn't express the shock in his heart in words, and he could never forget that scene.

Thinking about it day and night has long become a habit.

The real reason why he became his father's secret executioner was that he was poisoned since birth.

The medicine that controls the secret guards can prolong his life.

Although he told his father that he had accepted his fate by choosing this path, this path was not actually chosen by him, but a way of survival that his mother had tried her best to find for him. He could only accept his fate and live with his mother's expectations.

But he didn't like it.

The first time he killed someone, he had nightmares for several days.

Although he was killing corrupt officials who could not be dealt with openly, it was difficult for him to remain indifferent when he saw children crying and hugging their fathers, and heard women hanging themselves because their husbands died.

As the number of murders increased, he gradually became numb.

He felt like he was just a killing machine.

He once resented God. Why did he have to reincarnate so many times?

But the moment he saw Shen Shuangyue, he suddenly discovered that blood could also form a beautiful picture.

Because he hated killing, he could only hear news about families being destroyed and people being killed because of his killing.

But the moment he saw Shen Shuangyue, he reconciled with himself.

Shen Shuangyue also became the person he could not get rid of in his heart.

But he had killed too many people and was poisoned, so he was not worthy of standing by her side.

It’s good for both of us to guard each other silently.

The emperor digested the fact that his son fell in love with the corpse at first sight, and then realized, "Since you fell in love at first sight, why don't you get closer to Shen Shuangyue?"

The third prince remained silent.

"Talk to me! Otherwise I will wake her up now!" The emperor was secretly angry at this taciturn person!

The Third Prince pursed his lips and said, "I am not worthy."

"You are my son, but you are not worthy of her?" The emperor became even more angry.

"Yes."

"Why?" asked the emperor.

The third prince fell silent again.

The Emperor: "..." He could no longer bear it and threatened him, "If you keep silent, I will make Shen Shuangyue my concubine and register you under her name!"

The third prince opened his eyes wide, as if he was meeting his father for the first time.

The emperor sneered, hehe, you didn't expect it! He has learned to surprise people!

The Third Prince finally spoke his inner thoughts: "I have been poisoned and will not live long. Even if I were to be friends with Shuang Yue, I would be afraid of upsetting her."

The emperor was stunned. "It's true that you've been poisoned, but as long as you take the antidote regularly, it will only reduce your lifespan by five years at most. Who says you won't live long?"

The third prince's heart was filled with turmoil, but he could not tell his father: it was his fourth brother who told him after he became the crown prince.

He could only say, "Father, I am under control and cannot reveal the person behind this."

The emperor pondered for a moment and called out the leader of the secret guards who was guarding in the dark, "Gu Linghao, give the Third Prince some superficial injuries to make him look miserable, and then throw him into Shen Shuangyue's room."
