Luo Qinghan didn't answer directly, but turned to look at Xiao Xixi and asked.

"What do you think?"

Xiao Xixi carefully avoided the blood on the ground, poured herself a glass of water, and immediately responded when she heard this.

"They are the killers of the Blood Rain Tower."

Luo Qinghan: "It's the Blood Rain Tower again."

The Blood Rain Tower disappeared for a period of time because of the severe crackdown by the imperial court, but I didn't expect it to reappear now.

Wild fire, in spring.

Zhao Xian spent the whole night using all the tortures he could use, and still couldn't ask the only surviving killer who was behind it.

In the end, the killer died in the torture chamber because he could not bear the torture.

Luo Qinghan was not surprised by this.

Looking at the skills of the four killers, you can see that they should be regarded as the top experts in the blood rain building.

Like this kind of master, the bones are also harder, and it is more difficult to pry open their mouths than to go to the sky.

Luo Qinghan instructed: "Send the four corpses to Jingzhao Mansion, and let Yin Fu of Mei take care of them."

In Jingzhao House.

Mei Guangtao looked at the four corpses neatly placed in front of him, took a deep breath, and tried his best to suppress the urge to breathe out the fragrance.

He tried his best to squeeze out a smile: "General Zhao, we are just a small Jingzhao mansion here. A big case like the assassination of the prince should be handed over to the Ministry of Punishment or the Dali Temple for trial. If you go, I can guide you."

Zhao Xian said expressionlessly: "This is the meaning of the prince. The prince wants you to handle this case."

Mei Guangtao: "Can I refuse?"

Zhao Xian: "No."

Mei Guangtao took off his official hat, pointed to his precarious hairline, and asked a soulful question.

"Look at it, see for yourself! I work overtime every day just to do errands for you guys. My hair is falling out, and my forehead is going bald. Will your conscience hurt when you see me like this?!"

Zhao Xian's eyes showed deep sympathy.

"Yin Mei, it's hard for you, the court will not forget you, and the prince will not forget you either."

Mei Guangtao stared at his long black hair.

Eyes are full of envy and jealousy!

Zhao Xian's scalp was numb, and he subconsciously took a step back.

"Then what, I have to go back and report to the prince, take a step first and say goodbye!"

After saying that, he ran away quickly.

Soon, the news about the assassination of the prince was spread through Jingzhao Mansion, and the emperor who lived in the palace also knew about it.

In the early morning of the next day, many courtiers used this as an excuse to intercede again for the prince.

The emperor didn't want to get a bad reputation of not caring about his son's life or death. It just so happened that tomorrow was the Dragon Boat Festival. As usual, the emperor would take his family to watch the dragon boat race. The emperor planned to take the opportunity of the festival to bring the prince out for a reunion.

This is actually giving steps in disguise. As long as the prince can perform well, it is just around the corner to be released from the imperial mausoleum.

This imperial decree was sent to the imperial mausoleum and handed over to the prince.

Xiao Xixi asked curiously, "Is the emperor planning to let you go back to the palace?"

Luo Qinghan casually threw the imperial edict aside, and said lightly, "He finally kicked me out, and he definitely won't let me go back easily. This is just a trick he used to fool the courtiers, don't take it seriously."

During this time, he stayed in the imperial mausoleum every day.

As early as when he returned from the south begging for rain, the emperor was already wary of him.

Later, he won Chenliu County and the 50,000 Chixiao Army in one fell swoop, and also brought Jiang Yuanshan under his command.

Seeing that his status as a prince is getting more and more stable, and his reputation in the market is even vaguely meant to be on par with the emperor, the always suspicious emperor will definitely be very uneasy.

The emperor should have thought of abolishing the prince.

The edict hidden in the imperial study is iron proof.

The emperor did not stamp the jade seal on the edict, indicating that he had not yet made up his mind to abolish the prince.

Abandoning the prince is not a trivial matter, especially since this prince also has a high reputation.

Once the prince is abolished, whether it is the harem of the former dynasty or the common people, it will cause an uproar.

If it is serious, it may shake the foundation of the country.

The emperor was afraid to see such a situation.

So he was indecisive and hesitant.

The prince's sudden anger and blatant opposition made the emperor seize the opportunity, and the emperor took the opportunity to drive the prince out of the palace and put him in the tomb of the emperor.

The emperor did this in order to squeeze the prince out of the center of power little by little.

As long as the prince does not enter the dynasty for a long time and does not interfere in political affairs, then the prince's influence in the political affairs will gradually decrease. When the prince completely loses the right to speak in the dynasty in the future, the emperor will be able to take the initiative again.

In this way, the emperor can achieve what he wants without worrying about shaking the foundation of the country. It can be said to be the best of both worlds!

If it was changed to before, Luo Qinghan would still think that the father and emperor were too cold, and he didn't care about the father and son at all, but now he has seen it.

A person who can take that position by murdering his own brother can't expect family affection to have much weight in his heart at all.

His desire for power is greater than anything else.

...

In order to participate in the dragon boat race, Luo Qinghan called Xiao Xixi up before dawn today.

Xiao Xixi stared blankly and asked, "I'm so cute, why do I have to get up?"

Luo Qinghan took her out of the bed.

"Excuse me, lovely you, do you want to have breakfast?"

Xiao Xixi nodded vigorously: "Yes!"

Luo Qinghan patted her ass: "Then hurry up and wash up."

Xiao Xixi picked up the clothes and put them on her body, only to find that it was actually a man's clothes.

"Is this dress wrong?"

Luo Qinghan: "That's right, these are clothes specially prepared for you. I'm going to see the emperor later. You can't be recognized, so you have to dress up."

She is the concubine of the prince, and according to the rules, she cannot leave the palace at will.

If people know that she is dangling freely outside, I am afraid that it will cause unnecessary trouble.

Xiao Xixi asked while putting on her clothes: "I've been out for so long, won't anyone in the palace know?"

Luo Qinghan: "There is Chang Xi in the palace to help cover. They announced that you are ill and need to recuperate quietly. Anyway, you don't usually go out much, so no one should care if you don't show up for a long time."

Xiao Xixi: "Where's Baoqin? When I was kidnapped before, I saw Baoqin knocked unconscious. What happened to her later?"

Luo Qinghan: "Changxi had someone send me a message, saying that Baoqin is all right."

Xiao Xixi was relieved: "It's fine."

She got dressed, tied her hair in a bun, fastened it with a hairpin, made her eyebrows thicker, and smeared a little darker powder.

Dressed up like this, at first glance, he really looks like a handsome gentleman.
