Chapter 573 The Best of Both Worlds

  Luo Qinghan did not 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."

  Because of the imperial court's crackdown, the Blood Rain Tower disappeared for a while, but I didn’t expect it to appear again now.

Wild fire, in spring.

  Zhao Xian spent the whole night, using all the available torture, and still failed to ask the only killer who was behind the scenes.

  The last killer died in the torture room because he could not bear the torture.

  Luo Qinghan was not surprised by this.

  Looking at the skill of the four assassins, they knew that they should be regarded as the top masters in the Blood Rain Tower.

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

  Luo Qinghan ordered: "Send the four corpses to Jingzhao Mansion, and let Mei Mansion Yin figure it out."

  In Jingzhao Mansion.

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

He tried to squeeze a smile: "General Zhao, we are just a small Jingzhao Mansion here. Major cases like the assassination of the prince should be handed over to the Criminal Ministry or Dali Temple for trial. If you don’t know how the Criminal Ministry’s Yamen and Dali Temple If you go, I can show you the way."

  Zhao Xian said blankly: "This is what the prince meant. 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 questions about his soul.

   "Look at it, see for yourself! Just to do the errands for you, I work overtime every day, my hair falls a lot, and my forehead is almost bald. Wouldn't your conscience hurt when you see me like this?!"

  Zhao Xian's eyes showed deep sympathy.

  "Mei Fu Yin, thanks for your hard work, the court will never forget you, and the prince will never forget you."

  Mei Guangtao stared at his thick black hair.

  The eyes are full of envy, jealousy and hatred!

  Zhao Xian took a numb scalp and took a step back subconsciously.

   "Then what, I have to go back and return to the prince, take a step ahead and leave!"

  After speaking, he ran away quickly.

   Soon the news about the Prince’s assassination spread through Jingzhao Mansion, and the emperor who lived in the palace also knew about it.

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

  The emperor didn’t want to end up with a bad reputation for his son’s life and death. It happened that tomorrow was the Dragon Boat Festival. The emperor would take his family to watch the dragon boat race as usual.

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

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

  Xiao Xixi curiously asked: "Is the emperor planning to release you back to the palace?"

  Luo Qinghan threw the imperial decree aside, and said lightly: "He finally drove me out, and he certainly won't let me go back easily. This is just a method he used to deceive courtiers. You don't have to take it seriously."

  During this period, he stayed in the imperial tomb every day.

  As early as when he went south and begged for rain to return, the emperor was already on guard against him.

  Later, he took Chen Liujun and fifty thousand Chixiao army in one fell swoop, and also brought Jiang Yuanshan under his command, and made a good impression of the poor students in the imperial examination.

   Seeing that his position as the prince became more and more stable, and his reputation in the market even faintly meant to be shoulder to shoulder with the emperor, the emperor who had always been suspicious would definitely be very uneasy.

  The emperor should have thought of abolishing the prince.

  The edict hidden in the imperial study room is iron proof.

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

  It is not a trivial matter to scrap the prince, especially since the prince still has a high reputation.

  Once the prince is abolished, whether it is the front harem 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 uncertain and hesitant.

  The prince's sudden anger and open confrontation allowed the emperor to seize the opportunity. The emperor took the opportunity to drive the prince out of the palace and put him in the tomb.

  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 intervene in political affairs, then the prince’s influence in the dynasty will gradually decrease. When the prince completely loses the right to speak in the dynasty in the future, the emperor will be able to hold the initiative again.

  This will allow the emperor to achieve what he wants without worrying about shaking the foundation of the country. It is the best of both worlds!

  To replace it with the previous one, Luo Qinghan would still feel that his father was too cold and didn't care about the affection between father and son at all. Now he is already looking away.

  A person who can sit in that position by murdering a brother, can’t count on the importance of family affection in his heart.

  His desire for power is greater than anything else.

  ……

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

  Xiao Xixi asked in a daze, "I am so cute, why do I have to get up?"

  Luo Qinghan took her out of the bed.

   "Lovely you, would you like breakfast?"

  Xiao Xixi nodded vigorously: "Yes!"

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

  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, this is the clothes specially prepared for you. When I am going to see the emperor, you can’t be recognized, so you have to dress up.”

  She is the crown prince's side concubine, according to the rules, she cannot leave the palace at will.

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

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

  Luo Qinghan: "There is Changxi in the palace to help cover. They claim that you are sick and need to be quietly recuperating. Anyway, you don't go out very often, and no one should care if you don't show up for a long time."

  Xiao Xixi: "Where is Baoqin? When I was kidnapped before, I saw Baoqin was knocked out. What happened to her?"

  Luo Qinghan: "Chang Xi sent me a message, saying that Baoqin is fine."

  Xiao Xixi relieved: "It's okay."

  She put on her clothes, tied her hair into a bun, fixed it with a hairpin, made her eyebrows thicker, and applied some darker powder.

   Such a dress up, at first glance, it really looks like a handsome little man.

    Poorly ask for monthly pass~
