Wow, so "not too long" actually means just a few months.

Boer and Dai were stunned by the turn of events, and they looked at each other in disbelief.

Neither of them were talkative, and because Bu'er and Dai married the second son of the legitimate wife, their behavior was completely different from that of the eldest son, making them another template for Yinlu.

When two people get together, all they can do is gossip about things that have no practical use.

"Princess, do you think we should tell Mother in the palace?"

The court is in turmoil these days. With the eldest prince and the crown prince both under house arrest, I wonder if the third prince will also be unable to hold on.

Fucha Jingde scratched his head. He was a carefree person and treated the princes of the royal family as he pleased.

Since he was related to Yinyi and Yinlu by marriage, he addressed them with the same familiarity as Buer and Dai.

Boer and Dai rolled their eyes, but did not correct Fucha Jingde's bad habit.

"No rush. My mother told me before the New Year that I should avoid going to the palace unless necessary."

That must be because going to the palace too much is not good. Bu'er and Dai walked around the main hall. "Let's wait and see about this matter with our eldest brother and second brother, the Crown Prince."

It was something everyone could have predicted that the eldest prince and the crown prince would run into trouble.

However, the fact that this happened now has caught people somewhat off guard.

The Emperor acted swiftly and ruthlessly as always. Before anyone could react, two adult children were crippled.

Moreover, the court officials are now submitting memorials listing all the things the Crown Prince has done over the years, with the aim of getting the Emperor to depose him.

That's right. In case they're worried about the Crown Prince being reinstated and retaliating against them, they definitely need to strike first and keep the Crown Prince pinned down.

One after another, court officials submitted memorials to Emperor Kangxi.

Yinyi and Yinlu stood in the court, their hearts pounding.

I never expected that the title of Crown Prince would come to an end.

The other princes were itching to make their move, each with their own little schemes in mind, their thoughts racing and clattering.

In the end, Kangxi compromised with his court officials and issued an edict to depose the imprisoned crown prince.

Not only that, after deposing the crown prince, Kangxi dropped a bombshell: he would continue to select a new crown prince.

A new crown prince?!
