Princess Menglang is hard to change, the whole capital is embarrassed for her

Later, the eldest brother was sent by his father to guard the imperial mausoleum. He received news from Mizhou that the eldest brother had taken people to the mining area, and the assassins besieged the eldest brother and wiped him out. The eldest brother might also be seriously injured and died.

Judging from the location of the decisive battle between the two sides, there is no way that my eldest brother can return to the imperial tomb alive.

The news scared him.

Could Xiao Chenze, who has been a playboy since returning to Beijing, have such a bright future?

He actually realized that something was wrong in Mizhou and rushed over to check it out personally?

Thanks to his layout in Mizhou over the years and the death warriors trained by Wu Yongguang for him, Xiao Chenze lost his life.

Just as he was feeling secretly proud of himself, he heard about the collapse of the imperial mausoleum.

How could it be such a coincidence?

He didn't believe it.

My eldest brother's subordinates must have been afraid that the emperor would know that my eldest brother had secretly left the imperial mausoleum and died outside, so they deliberately used the excuse of the imperial mausoleum collapsing to cover up the cause of my eldest brother's death.

At most, I can wait for them to bring back the eldest brother's body, bury it in the ground, and then dig it out to get away with it.

In order to prevent this from happening, he deliberately found an excuse to have a fight with his fourth brother, and through his accomplices in the palace, he instigated his father to send him and his fourth brother to the imperial mausoleum as punishment.

With this legitimate excuse, he hurried to the imperial mausoleum, intending to keep an eye on his elder brother's men and expose them before they could make any move.

Let the emperor know the truth that the eldest brother disobeyed the imperial edict and ran away but died a violent death.

I never expected that my eldest brother was really in the imperial tomb and was really injured.

Apart from being bedridden due to injuries, he didn't look that serious and was still able to chat and laugh with them.

It can be seen that the news from Mizhou that the eldest brother was seriously injured and could not survive was false, or in other words, the seriously injured person was not the eldest brother, but someone else pretending to be him.

It must be someone pretending to be him.

How badly was the imposter injured? According to the final description of the assassin, he couldn't move at all. Any movement would cause a large amount of blood to gush out from the wounds.

Therefore, it is impossible to move him to the imperial tomb in such a short time.

This also shows that the man in the imperial mausoleum, their eldest brother, was injured in the imperial mausoleum, not in Mizhou.

The reason why the two events were so coincidental was that the person who went to Michigan to investigate the secret wanted to divert the trouble to someone else, making the eldest brother the target and thus ignoring the real opponent.

If he had not personally visited the imperial mausoleum, he would have really been tricked and taken into the trap.

This matter was not mentioned in the past.

After all, he has always preferred to focus his energy on dealing with Liu Fei.

The opportunity came unexpectedly.

Something happened to Concubine Liu. This stupid and arrogant woman actually dared to lay her hands on Fang Yao's niece. When he heard the news, he locked himself in the mansion, laughing and crying.

In particular, his insider told him that his father had always suspected that Queen Chu's illness was related to Concubine Liu. Regardless of whether this was true or false, he knew that his father would not spare Concubine Liu's life.

You see, father has also been waiting for an opportunity.

Where else can I find such a good opportunity? Concubine Liu actually captured Shen Li and locked her up.

He was instantly certain that Concubine Liu's death was imminent.

He hurried to find the Fourth Prince, not for any other reason but to encourage the Fourth Prince to find a way to save Concubine Liu and to show others his extremely anxious and worried attitude.

People who didn't know the truth said that he had a conscience, and that he knew it would cause himself unnecessary trouble, but he still cared about his fourth brother.

Yes, he cared so much about his fourth brother. He was Concubine Liu’s son and the fourth prince who once rode on his back.

Seeing his fourth brother was at a loss and crying in fear, he caringly asked his fourth brother to go find Commander Liu and let him listen to Commander Liu's words and rescue Concubine Liu.

Things developed directly in the direction he hoped. After listening to Commander Liu, the fourth brother came back to inquire about the fate of the several uncles who had competed with their father for the throne.

He immediately guessed that Commander Liu was going to commit a crime and needed his fourth brother's help.

Otherwise, the fourth brother would not be so distressed and conflicted, and would not go out of his way to find evidence to prove that the choice he was about to make was correct.

He quickly and deliberately sent someone to spread the news to his fourth brother, saying that those imperial uncles all met with miserable end, which added fuel to the fire for his fourth brother.

As expected, my fourth brother went to plant a poison in father's body.

The funny thing is that the fourth brother didn't know until the end that he had contributed to the situation.

According to his original intention, he hoped that his father would order the death of the Fourth Prince so that Concubine Liu could experience the feeling of the death of a loved one.

Unexpectedly, my father actually let my fourth brother go, demoted him to a fiefdom, and never allowed him to return to Beijing.

It doesn’t matter. As long as Fourth Brother is alive, he also has a way to provoke Concubine Liu.

Before Concubine Liu was killed, he told her that he had always remembered the revenge for his mother's murder and the humiliation of his fourth brother riding a horse. But his fourth brother knew nothing about it, so he would take good care of him for Concubine Liu, so that she would not be able to rest in peace even after her death.

The executioner came back and said that Concubine Liu died with her eyes open.

......

After leaving the palace, the third prince remained silent all the way.

As soon as they entered their territory, the people lurking outside the palace withdrew.

Then, a secret letter from the palace accomplice was also delivered via carrier pigeon.

The letter stated that the Emperor distrusted everyone recently and was difficult to approach. It would be best to contact the forces remaining in the capital. Also, find out where Wu Yongguang had gone, aside from the weapons and personnel being burned in Mizhou. Was there any troop deployment? Did they secure control of the iron ore mine?

Extremely anxious.

Xiao Shuze rubbed his eyebrows and closed his eyes, reminding himself not to be impatient, absolutely not to be impatient, he must be thorough and must not miss anything.

Speaking of omissions, he thought of his elder brother, Xiao Chenze.

He laughed at himself.

I never dreamed that the eldest brother was the one hiding the most.

This dandy young man, who is looked down upon by everyone, is actually the one with the best martial arts skills among his brothers.

The third prince of Beidi, Miergan, disappeared in Da Zhou. He traced the period when officials' homes in the capital were robbed. When his eldest brother led people to catch the thieves, he suspected that the person was in his hands.

So he sneaked into his eldest brother's house late at night to find out the news.

That night, he finally saw the true face of his elder brother. His superb swordsmanship and nimble leaping and moving body shocked him.

Seeing that he could not win and fearing exposing himself, he had no choice but to withdraw.

He originally wanted to rescue Mergan and hand him over to his uncle who was in Xiqiang, and send Mergan back to Beidi under the protection of his uncle, in order to prevent the eldest prince of Beidi from becoming a powerful helper to the eldest prince of Xiqiang after he ascended the throne.

But in the end, it was not confirmed whether Mergan was in the eldest brother's hands.

But he has also been keeping his eyes on his elder brother since then.

Just like the matter of him and Wu Yongguang plotting for the throne, if his elder brother had not gone to the northern border, he would have had to think twice before taking action.

"Dong dong dong."

A knock on the door interrupted his thoughts.

"Third Prince, another secret letter has been sent from the palace."

"Bring it in."

The door was pushed open and the letter was delivered.

The letter said that it was necessary to contact the people in the capital as soon as possible, otherwise the emperor would recall Xiao Chenze.

After all, Shen Li was assassinated, and as her fiancé, Xiao Chenze should come back to find out the truth.

Indeed, there is no time to lose.

Once his elder brother returns to Beijing, he will never have such an opportunity again.

He immediately gave orders to contact the people his uncle had left in Beijing.

He sent another letter to the palace.

At the beginning of the morning hour tonight, he will lead his men to hide in the golden juice carriage in the early morning and sneak into the palace, and pay attention to the support inside.
