The hero fell for the cannon fodder maid.

In the tense situation, Prince Rong walked into the Yonghe Hall calmly, with soldiers on both sides entering the hall with him. Everyone began to feel puzzled.

When did Prince Rong become so bold as to bring soldiers into the palace? All the royal guards who colluded with the prime minister were arrested.

The Prime Minister was at a loss for a moment. He had never expected that while the mantis stalks the cicada, the oriole is behind. It was just that Prince Rong was really a hidden talent. He had lived under Zhao Hong's watch for so many years, yet he could still do such a thing.

He is really finished this time. His whole family will go to hell with him, and the Prime Minister's Mansion's century-old foundation will be destroyed in his hands. Since this is the case, he will not let these people have an easy time. He will drag some people down with him even if he dies.

They were unkind and unjust.

Prince Rong: "What are you doing? Are you forcing the emperor to abdicate?"

Zhao Hong: "My dear brother, you have arrived at the perfect time. Hurry and kill this ambitious man. He dared to kill the king."

Prince Rong did not move, but looked at the Prime Minister with a half-smile in his eyes.

The prime minister knew that his situation was hopeless, but he still wanted to hold his son.

He walked quickly to Prince Rong, and Prince Rong's guards looked at him defensively with knives in hand.

He could only stand there and bow to Prince Rong, then said to the civil and military ministers, "Prince Rong, I know that nothing I say will help. I am forced into this situation and know that my crime is unforgivable. However, I still want to preserve my bloodline. I am willing to exchange the greatest secret of the Great Chu with you. I hope Prince Rong will agree."

Prince Rong: "Oh, the Prime Minister should know what he is doing."

Prime Minister: "I know."

Prince Rong: "Do you really have any secrets to tell me?"

Zhao Hong: "Shut up, you bastard."

The Prime Minister said impatiently: "Really, I can swear an oath, hoping to preserve a trace of my bloodline." He was really afraid that Prince Rong would not give him a chance. This was his biggest bargaining chip.

Prince Rong: "Okay, if there is anything, I can let your people go with dignity. If it is an unborn child, I can let him live."

The Prime Minister looked at Prince Rong with gratitude and said, "Thank you, Prince Rong."

Zhao Hong: "What on earth are you going to do? What do you want to say? If you dare to say anything, just wait for your entire clan to be executed."

The prime minister didn't even look at him. Zhao Hong felt deeply humiliated and was afraid that this man would reveal the secret, but there was nothing he could do to stop him. All his eunuchs had run away, and the ministers under him didn't dare to say a word, and they also had long knives on their necks.

The ministers also wanted to know what the secret was, or the biggest secret of the Great Chu. Although the current situation was very bad, they were also gossipy. As long as they stood still and didn't make trouble, they should be able to survive.

How can such a tense atmosphere be without gossip? This can also help them hold their urge to urinate.

Prime Minister: "You all remember the Crown Prince case many years ago. It was the current Emperor Zhao Hong and the guilty ministers who planned and framed him."

Many ministers were shocked. They didn't expect that the emperor and the prime minister were responsible for this matter.

Prime Minister: "When the late emperor was seriously ill, he knew he was dying, so he wrote an edict long ago, passing the throne to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Xiao Chengyi. Later, the eunuchs around the emperor secretly reported it to the Fourth Prince, who then began to win over the ministers. The guilty minister was a key link in this. The guilty minister was guilty of corruption, and the evidence was in the hands of the Fourth Prince, so he had no choice but to get involved. Of course, he also had his own ambitions..."

So the Prime Minister conspired with the Fourth Prince and others on how to frame the Crown Prince, and told the story of how he ascended to the throne, as well as the witnesses.

The fourth prince was ambitious from the beginning, and he always wanted to seize the position of crown prince. However, since the crown prince was determined at birth, this was against the rules. At the insistence of the late emperor, no one dared to say anything. The queen and the emperor were originally a young couple. The emperor married the queen when he was still a prince, and later became the crown prince after going through hardships. It can be said that the two of them had come through wind and rain. Unfortunately, the queen had no children for many years, so she favored a few concubines. It was also fate.

As soon as the concubine entered the harem, the queen became pregnant. The two of them had once made a vow to be together for life, but this time all of it came to nothing.

Those concubines also became pregnant and gave birth to three princes and two princesses.

There was no place left in the palace, and the emperor only doted on the queen. She thought that the queen had finally gotten her reward after all the hard work, but she didn't know that the fourth prince's mother's family was very powerful and not satisfied with the current situation. They had been teaching the fourth prince some imperial skills since he was a child, hoping that the fourth prince could achieve imperial success and they could also reach a higher level.

However, the fate of the crown prince was decided as soon as he was born, which put a stop to their plans. They then began to plot against the crown prince and the queen in every possible way.

Every time, their plot was discovered by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and the court was in a state of balance. However, a few years ago, they arranged informants around the Queen, the Crown Prince, and the Emperor. They wanted to hit the target in one go, but they did not take any action. When the Emperor became seriously ill, the shocking conspiracy began, and the gears of fate began a new round of changes.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who is extremely talented and possesses both virtue and ability, was framed by the Fourth Prince, who accused him of regicide. The real murderer of the regicide was the Fourth Prince who cried "stop thief".

The queen was also framed. A puppet was found in her palace with the emperor's birth date written on it. The Great Chu has always strictly prohibited witchcraft. If anyone is found, the whole family will be punished.

The late empress and the late emperor were a loving couple, so how could they use witchcraft to harm the emperor? This did not make sense at all. However, due to the clever words of several ministers and the fourth prince, the late emperor was angered to death. For a time, there was chaos in the palace. The fourth prince took the opportunity to send assassins, saying that it was the emperor's will to send the prince to death. The prince was rescued and disappeared from the capital.

No one knew whether His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was alive or dead. No one had ever seen his body or him, so it became an unsolved case.

"The mastermind is the current Emperor. He murdered his father and brother. It was Zhao Hong who fabricated evidence and ordered the Crown Prince's personal maid to place it in the study. He had long since bribed the Crown Prince's personal attendant, Quanfu. The Empress also had a spy close to her who hid the puppet in Kunning Palace. The mastermind was Consort Shu, the current Empress Dowager Wang Wan. The late Emperor was also poisoned by the Fourth Prince's repeated poisoning of his food. I, a guilty minister, was complicit in these events and my sins cannot be redeemed even by death."

Prime Minister Qin explained everything, and Zhao Hong, who was at the top, was filled with horror. He had never expected that one day the thing in the deepest part of his heart that he least wanted to do would appear before everyone again.

He was furious and wanted to kill Prime Minister Qin and Zhao Chengyi. He deserved to die, they all deserved to die.

Zhao Hong: "Hahahaha, you are right, I did it, that's right, it was me who did it, hahahaha."

Prince Rong below stared at the crazy person above with red eyes.

I wish I could drink his blood, eat his flesh, and torture him to death. Why do good people always suffer misfortune, while bad people live freely?

Prince Rong: "Why are you doing this, Crown Prince? Father, the Emperor, and the Queen Mother are not good to you. Why are you doing this?"

Zhao Hong: "Haha, good, what's good about them? Since I was a child, my father has only had eyes for the Queen and my good brother, the Crown Prince. He has never noticed me. I'm not bad either. Why are all the eyes on Zhao Chengyi? Why?"

"And you, what right do you have to say that about me? Aren't you jealous? Wherever he is, we are his foil."

Prince Rong: "Because of these, you framed the Queen and the Crown Prince, and angered your father to death. These are not your reasons. You are born with low self-esteem, shameless, and a villain."

"What is the position of Crown Prince? It means devoting everything to the country, even marriage, love, friendship, and family. An emperor should make the country strong and the people prosperous, but what have you done? The people are living in misery and suffering, isn't that what you did? You are qualified for this position, but you can't!"

Zhao Hong: "Haha, so what if I can't? You, you guys have also been fooled around by me, haven't you? The crown prince you were so proud of, the future emperor, has also been dethroned by me, who is sitting in this position now?"

"It's me!!" After shouting these two words, the whole person was going crazy.

"is it?"

Hearing this voice, everyone turned their heads.
