Chapter 871: Crazy, Take advantage of chaos
There was a door at the back of the office room used by Xiao Tianyao. It was originally for the convenience of the ministers who work in the palace overnight so that they would not find someone to go around. And now it became convenient for Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu.
To avoid people"s eyes and ears, the two came to a small study room through the back door and changed into the clothes of the guards and eunuchs that had been prepared.
No need to think about it, it must be Xiao Tianyao who will change into the palace guard uniform, while Lin Chujiu will dress as a eunuch.
"You go to the Imperial Hospital to find Imperial Doctor Qin." Xiao Tianyao did not act together with Lin Chujiu.
In the palace, the Empress has many eyes and ears. A guard and a eunuch walking together, it will be too eye-catching.
"I see." Lin Chujiu nodded lightly, not surprised.
It was not the first time she has entered the palace, and she will not naively think that Xiao Tianyao will be able to kill and suppress everyone once he returns to the capital.
Xiao Tianyao was able to gain a firm foothold in the court in such a short period, which was more than a hundred times stronger than others.
"Do you know where the Imperial Hospital is?" Before parting, Xiao Tianyao asked, and after receiving Lin Chujiu"s affirmative answer, Xiao Tianyao stopped talking. He watched Lin Chujiu leave, and then turned and walked in another direction.
While Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu were acting separately, the shadow guards sneaked into the palace prison, knocked down the palace guards in the palace prison, and released the crown prince who was imprisoned inside.
"Are you here to save me? Who are you from?" The Crown Prince was imprisoned in the palace prison. Although he was not tortured, he still looked like a half-human and half-ghost. When he saw someone coming to rescue him, he jumped up without n.o.ble bearing, and worse than a rough man in the market.
The shadow guard didn"t answer but took out a set of bodyguards" clothes for the crown prince to change into: "Your Highness, change into your clothes first, let"s talk after leaving here."
"Yes, yes, let"s leave here first. I"ve had enough of being alone in this ghost place." Like a hungry dog s.n.a.t.c.hing food, the Crown Prince s.n.a.t.c.hed the clothes from the shadow guard, and hurriedly put them on, regardless of whether he was dressed neatly or not. People glanced at it as if they didn"t see it.
Their purpose was to lead the Crown Prince to the Seventh Prince. As for the other things… it was not something they have to worry about.
"Your Highness, let"s go, if the Empress"s people find out, we will be in trouble." The shadow guard put eye drops on the Empress as planned.
"Imperial Mother?" The Crown Prince stopped when he heard the Empress. His face showed pain, and he cursed frantically: "Why? Why did Imperial Mother want my life? What did I do wrong? Why did she treat me like this?"
The Crown Prince"s spirit was not normal. When the shadow guard aroused, he started to go crazy.
The shadow guard was overjoyed, and continued: "Your Highness, you still regard that insidious woman as your mother? She is not your mother at all. Your biological mother… was killed by her."
"What did you say?" The Crown Prince grabbed the hand of the shadow guard and asked loudly.
The shadow guard said earnestly: "Your Highness, you heard me right. Your biological mother is not the Empress at all. Your biological mother is Chen Zhaoyi. Back then, the Empress and Chen Zhaoyi were pregnant at the same time. The Empress gave birth to a stillborn baby. To keep her throne, she drugged Chen Zhaoyi to give birth early, and then announced that Chen Zhaoyi died of dystocia, one dead body, and two lives."
"No, it"s impossible, it"s impossible, how could I not be the Imperial Mother"s son, you are talking nonsense. Be careful of your words, or I will punish you." The Crown Prince"s eyes were cloudy, and there was no clarity. The shadow guard knew that the Crown Prince was crazy.
"Your Highness, if you don"t believe me, you can ask yourself. This lowly one dare not lie to you." The shadow guard looked loyal. The Crown Prince was furious, and pushed him away: "Of course, I have to ask, how could this prince not be the Empress"s son? This prince is the eldest son of the Empress. The crown prince. I am the Crown Prince!"
The Crown Prince has completely collapsed. Reason tells him that he was most likely not the Empress"s biological son. If he was the Empress"s biological son, how could he be in this state today?
But, he can"t accept it!
The eldest son of the Empress was his most proud ident.i.ty, and he has been sitting in the position of Crown Prince by this t.i.tle. If he was not the son of the Empress, not the eldest son, then what is he?
Was it a joke?
"I don"t believe it, I don"t believe it, I"m going to ask, I must ask." Even if he has no chance to sit on the throne now, he still has to ask clearly, he can"t live his life like a joke.
The Crown Prince stumbled out, and the two shadow guards followed immediately and persuaded the Crown Prince to go to the seventh prince first and take the seventh prince as a hostage, otherwise, he would be killed by the palace guards before he even met the Empress.
"Yes, yes, go to the seventh brother first. I know where the seventh brother is. You change your clothes and follow me." The Crown Prince has lived in the palace for more than ten years, so he naturally knows some secret paths.
The two shadow guards looked at each other, and quickly took off their clothes, revealing the guard uniforms they were wearing underneath.
They were well-prepared.
The people arranged by Prince Xiao cooperated, and the Crown Prince quickly found the seventh prince who was rus.h.i.+ng back to the Luanfeng Hall, who was going to have dinner with the Empress.
"Seventh brother!" The Crown Prince saw the seventh prince and walked out from a corner.
"Brother Crown Prince?" The Seventh Prince was startled when he saw the person coming, but he never showed a trace of panic on his face. He just took two steps back quietly and gestured to the guards.
"Crown Prince? What kind of Crown Prince am I? I am a prisoner now. Do you know what a prisoner is, the Seventh Brother?" The Crown Prince"s eyes were red, he has gone crazy, and he has no sense at all.
The seventh prince"s small body was tense, looked at the two people behind the Crown Prince, and persuaded softly: "Brother Crown Prince, all this is just temporary, Imperial Mother will not…"
But before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the Crown Prince: "Imperial Mother? Is she my biological mother? If she is my biological mother, why didn"t she save me? How did I end up in this situation?"
"Brother Crown Prince, what nonsense are you talking about!" The seventh prince"s pupils suddenly shook, and his expression fl.u.s.tered.
He was still a child, after all, so he was inevitably fl.u.s.tered when he heard the Crown Prince"s words.
"Nonsense? Am I talking nonsense? Look at you, then look at me? Don"t you know how biased Imperial Mother is to you all these years?" The Crown Prince originally only believed half of what the shadow guard said, but after seeing the Seventh Prince, who was still golden and n.o.ble.
He was the Crown Prince, and he committed the crime of treason. He was thrown into the palace prison, but nothing happened to the Empress and the Seventh Prince. It can be seen that his imperial mother was very capable. Even if she can"t keep him, she can let him live in the prison better, but what happened?
He lived in the dungeon worse than a pig or a dog. Any small guard could pee on his head, he was nothing but a joke.
"Brother Crown Prince, calm down." The Seventh Prince looked at the Crown Prince who was getting closer and closer, feeling uneasy.
He was not afraid of meeting their Imperial Uncle Xiao, but when he saw the mad Crown Prince, he was really afraid.
"Calm down?" The Crown Prince laughed coldly: "Seventh brother, your elder brother has never been so calm as now. I haven"t gone to pay my respects to Imperial Mother for a long time. Let"s go… you accompany the elder brother to see the Imperial Mother."
After the Crown Prince finished speaking, he rushed to the seventh prince… …
