Before Josie could react, the man took her hand and started walking quickly.

[Blackening value-50]

Qiao Xi didn't understand why his blackening value was reduced, but he still followed his instructions and used Qinggong to fly to take him out of the palace wall.

The sky is dawning,

As the sky gets brighter, there are gradually more vendors on both sides of the street.

Following the shouts, the two of them arrived at the Linji Shop that Qi Anze mentioned, a steamed bun shop that has been passed down for hundreds of years.

Qiao Xi's anger gradually drifted away along with the aroma of the steamed buns.

"Eat more." Qi Anze looked at the girl lovingly, and stretched out his hand to signal the boss for another cage.

Qiao Xi couldn't figure out what he was thinking now, and tried to use telepathy, but found nothing.

…

The two of them walked side by side on the way back,

"What did the Queen Mother write on your hand?" The man spoke slowly, with a light voice.

Qiao Xi nodded secretly, and finally waited until he asked, and said quickly,

"The Queen wrote the word 'Shun' on my hand."

After a while, I heard him murmuring to himself, "Mother, do you want you to comply with her wishes and not tell me the truth, or do you want me to comply with her wishes and give up the position of prince to Prince Rui."

Qiao Xi: "..." Does this have two other meanings?

"If I resign as the crown prince, will it..."

Qiao Xi looked at him in horror, as if she was meeting him for the first time.

Reducing the blackening value is not reducing intelligence. You can't be the emperor, and you have so many supporters. No matter which prince becomes the emperor, the first one he wants to get rid of is you.

She really wanted to shake him awake.

Seeing the girl's increasingly complicated expression, Qi Anze chuckled, patted her head, and asked seriously,

"If I don't become the prince, can you save my life?"

"..."

"Hahahahaha." The man laughed heartily to the sky, shaking the sleeping birds out of the tree.

"When Prince Rui comes back, I will tell my father that I want to go to Fuhua Temple to pray for them... I will not come back."

Praying? Isn’t this a trick played by the empress in the palace to gain divine favor?

"Will you go with me?"

Josie refused without thinking, "I don't want to."

The man was stunned. He didn't expect her to be so straightforward, so he deliberately teased her, "Is it because I lost my status as a prince, or do you think Fuhua Temple can't eat meat?"

Seeing that he was becoming more and more serious as he spoke, Qiao Xi was afraid that he would become a monk out of nowhere, so she tugged on his sleeves anxiously.

"Host, I think you are the most benevolent and righteous person. Others...are not suitable."

"Benevolence and righteousness? This is the first time I heard someone use this word to describe me. Queen Mother usually uses this word to describe Prince Rui."

Hey, children who lack maternal love are a bit pitiful.

But your mother is a love brain, unless...

Josie suddenly felt as if she had found the threads of this messy yarn.

The starting point of everything his mother did was to gain the emperor's love.

Wouldn't it be great if two people were kidnapped and taken to a deserted place?

…

Before Qiao Xi's plan was planned, Concubine Yin successfully released the third prince with her coquettish skills.

Now it's good, it's a three-legged situation again.

All the previous work was in vain.

The girl who received the news in the room helplessly collapsed on the bed and remained silent for a long time.

But the man who told her the news leisurely asked his servants to make him a pot of good tea.

"Actually, I think this is quite good. I used to envy the second emperor brother that he could travel around the mountains and rivers. Now I can do it too,"

The man secretly looked at her expression as he spoke, "Although the order has not been officially issued yet, we are already making the handover."

He used the gesture of drinking tea to cover his face, so Josie didn't know that this was actually just a link in his conspiracy.

He wanted to take this opportunity to completely eradicate those who supported King Rui.

A few days ago,

The weather is sunny and windy,

The man entered the palace with brisk steps.

The chamberlain serving the emperor hurriedly came up to greet him and asked, "Your Highness, what can I do for you?"

"Minister Su, I have something important to report to my father, the Emperor. Please let me know."

When the chamberlain heard what he said and saw that he was holding a box with unknown contents in his hand, he cupped his hands, responded with a smile, and turned around to enter the emperor's study.

…

"Nonsense, you can give in to such a big matter. What do you want the ministers of civil and military affairs to think? What do you want the people to think?"

The emperor looked angry and slapped the table in front of him loudly.

"Father, please calm down. I feel sorry for your upbringing for so many years. However, my mother's appearance that day made me feel extremely guilty.

The queen mother warned her sons and ministers more than once that the second emperor's younger brother was tolerant of others.

I have always forgotten to trust myself, otherwise the border battle would have been resolved long ago, so why bother letting so many soldiers go to the battlefield."

The man said these words with a normal expression, because he knew that his father was observing him, and if his eyes dodge for a moment, he would shrink back.

He hit the railway while it was hot, "Now the second emperor's brother is back, and his ministers have brought the seal and documents together.

I hope that in the days to come, I can always be by my father’s side and be your good son.”

The man who spoke sincerely made the emperor relax, but he still tried,

"You cannot be removed from your position as prince immediately. You have not made any mistakes."

He immediately answered, "I can resign on my own, I won't let those old ministers say anything."

…

"No, you first hand over the affairs to Rui'er slowly, and wait until he makes achievements before talking about the prince's transfer."

"I accept the order to express my gratitude." He raised the object beside his legs above his head without any hesitation, "I will leave this precious seal with my father."

After a while, when he saw the superior man nodding slowly, he knew that this risky move was the right one.

The emperor was in a very good mood and made an exception to go to the Queen's Palace, where the family of four had their first lunch in many years.

The young Liu Huangmei clapped her hands happily, and after finishing the meal, she acted coquettishly and asked the emperor to play with her.

The queen quickly shouted to stop,

"Xiao Liu, don't make trouble."

Unexpectedly, the emperor was in a very good mood and picked up the little girl, "Our sixth sister is so cute, how could I refuse your request? Tell me, what are you playing with?"

Looking at their backs, Qi Anze's hands beside him unconsciously clenched into fists.

The woman patted his shoulder and comforted him in a low voice,

"When you were little, your father would play with you when he was not so busy with official duties."

"Are you sincere?" He whispered,

After all, in his memory, his existence was to prepare for him to seize power.

Every time they play, they are specially chosen when the royal grandmother comes, or when she enters the palace to pay her respects.

The queen looked at her son who had grown up and couldn't bear it.
