Chapter 258 The eldest prince and Concubine Rong are having an affair

Shen Xue was surrounded by rumors in the capital and was in a low mood at home. She was worried about the impact on her brother's study in the Imperial College, and she was also worried that the rumors would hinder her marriage with Shangguan Rui.

Having not received any letters from Shangguan Rui for many days, she felt uneasy and suffered every day in the mansion.

Shangguan Rui's navy training has come to an end. Once he returns to Beijing and is appointed admiral of the navy, he will officially take over the entire navy.

He rushed back from the training camp with twenty guards.

However, on the way back, he was ambushed by hundreds of assassins.

The assassins surged like a tide, surrounding Shangguan Rui and his men. The guards fought back desperately, but they were outnumbered and each of them was highly skilled in martial arts, and they gradually fell into trouble.

After a fierce battle, the guards suffered heavy casualties, and Shangguan Rui was also seriously injured. Leng Ce ordered the guards to protect Shangguan Rui. They fought and retreated until they came to a fast-flowing river. The river roared and splashed with waves.

Shangguan Rui looked at the river in front of him, and a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes. Everyone had been in the training camp for almost a year and was very good at swimming. There was still a glimmer of hope if they jumped into the water.

He shouted loudly: "Leng Ce, order everyone to jump into the water."

"Yes."

Upon receiving the order, the guard jumped into the river without hesitation and quickly dived to the bottom of the river. The river water was instantly dyed red with blood.

When the assassins chased to the river, the leader sneered and waved his hand to signal a few others to go down the river to chase them, while the others rode on horseback along the river bank to chase them.

The assassins who went down the river did not expect that Shangguan Rui and others could be so agile in the fast-flowing water. After several fights, they were drowned in the river one after another, and their bodies were washed downstream by the river.

Shangguan Rui and others used the power of the river to float quickly downstream. After floating dozens of miles along the river, they saw a hidden cave on the shore. They went ashore and hid in the cave to rest.

Bei Ze hurriedly treated Shangguan Rui's wounds. He lay there with a pale face, and said solemnly, "How many guards died?"

"Master, we are missing ten men. They might have been swept downstream by the river. The guards are good swimmers and they will be fine. By the time we return to the capital, they should have returned as well."

"Everyone is injured and in danger of being in the water."

"Don't worry about us, everyone. We will recover here first and then quietly return to the capital. This attack must be related to your return to take over the position of Admiral."

"It must have something to do with my two royal brothers. Father and Xiaoxue must be worried when they learn that I'm missing."

"Master, why don't you send someone to pass the message back to the county lady so that she can rest assured."

"Don't send any message back yet to prevent it from being intercepted. Let them think I'm dead and the enemy will let down their guard. Only then can we return safely."

"My master is wise."

Shangguan Rui looked at the surging river, feeling both worried and angry. He knew very well that there were many conspiracies behind this matter. After his injury healed, he ordered people to quietly return to Beijing to investigate the matter thoroughly, and he would make them pay the price.

Concubine Rong prayed for blessings in the royal temple for seven days, and the eldest prince sneaked into her room every night to do obscene things with her.

In the dead of night, the two of them lay half-dressed on the bed, hugging each other tightly. "Today, the Emperor sent someone to say that Qixia Palace has been renovated. I will return to the palace tomorrow."

The eldest prince hugged Concubine Rong tightly and whispered in her ear, "Xin'er, you will return to the palace tomorrow. It will be difficult for us to have such an opportunity to get together in the future."

"We can meet secretly when you come to the palace to pay your respects."

"The palace is full of my father's spies. It's difficult to avoid him."

"I'll send a message to you if I get a chance."

"Okay, I'll wait for good news."

"How's the matter with the third brother going?"

"I received news at noon today that the Third Prince and his men were all seriously injured and jumped into the fast-flowing river. It's extremely difficult for them to survive."

"This past year, the third brother has been training the sailors in the water every day. They are very good swimmers, and their chances of survival are very high."

"Jumping into the water while seriously injured is highly dangerous. No matter how good a swimmer you are, you can't withstand the relentless currents. Look at King Mu, he won countless battles on land, but when he encountered rough seas, he still perished."

"That's true."

The eldest prince gently caressed Concubine Rong's delicate body and whispered in her ear, "Xin'er, you helped me solve a big problem. How can I thank you enough?"

Rong Fei's delicate hands caressed the eldest prince's face, slowly moving down from his chin to his Adam's apple, making the eldest prince so aroused that he turned over and pressed on her.

He whispered softly in her ear, "Is my father better in bed, or am I better?"

"Of course you are powerful. You can make me feel like I am in heaven, but your father is old and often unable to do the same."

After being praised by Concubine Rong, the eldest prince worked even harder. Concubine Rong was worried that any noise would arouse the suspicion of the guards outside the courtyard, so she could only keep her mouth shut and avoid making any sound. The feeling of having an affair was both thrilling and exciting.

Su Feng and his guards waited at the back of the house. The eldest prince was exhausted after a major battle and wanted to rest, but it was getting late and he had to leave.

He gently let go of Concubine Rong and slowly got out of bed. Before leaving, he didn't forget to kiss the beauty and said ambiguously: "Xin'er, I'm leaving. Find a chance to pass on a message to me."

Concubine Rong nodded softly.

The eldest prince quietly went out from the side window of the house, went down the back mountain with his guards, and galloped back to the capital on horseback.

After watching the eldest prince leave, Concubine Rong placed her hand gently on her abdomen and whispered, "I hope you won't disappoint me this time. Only with a son can I have the capital and power to fight for it."

There was a hint of determination and desire in her eyes.

In the palace, offspring are of vital importance to imperial concubines, and sons can become a powerful weapon for them to fight for power and status.

Concubine Rong knew this very well and had always longed to give birth to a prince for the emperor. However, the emperor wanted to deprive her of her right to be a mother, so don't blame her for being so ruthless.

The emperor and the eldest prince are 60% similar, and no one noticed that the child looked like either one when he was born.

The two exploited each other. The eldest prince wanted to use Rong Fei's power to eliminate his enemies and ascend the throne. Rong Fei, on the other hand, wanted to use Rong Fei's sperm to bear a child for her own purposes. Both of them had impure motives.

At this time, the emperor was extremely worried when he learned that Shangguan Rui had jumped into the river. He immediately sent his confidants to secretly search for Shangguan Rui and ordered a thorough investigation of the attack.

The second prince has been sending people to investigate whether his infection with the plague is related to the eldest prince.

"Ye Chen, this prince ordered you to investigate the plague infection. Have you made any progress?"

"My Lord, I have already sent someone to secretly investigate this matter. The eldest prince has been hiding in his room since returning home, which is puzzling."

"Given his flamboyant personality, it's impossible for him to stay in his room the entire time after returning to the court. Something must have happened."

"What do the spies in the mansion say?"

"The eldest prince has been staying in his room since returning from court. Su Feng is guarding the door and no one can get close to the room. Even the princess avoids him when she goes to see him."

At this time, the guard came in and reported: "Master, at the hour of Yin today, someone found the eldest prince sitting in a carriage at the city gate. His guards also quietly entered the city. After entering the city, the carriage entered the palace through the back door."

"Why did he come back from outside the city so early? A prince returned home and entered through the back door. Such sneaky behavior must be up to no good."

"There must be something fishy going on here. Keep investigating. Whether it's a human or a ghost will eventually reveal itself."

"I obey my orders."
