Chapter 443 The Prostitute's Waiting (10)

The news that the Second Prince had taken the top prostitute of Donghua Pavilion back to his mansion and raised her there quickly spread throughout the city of Dongdu, with the help of various people. Even the imperial concubine Liu Lang in the palace had heard of it.

On the day she heard the news, she smashed all the furnishings in her bedroom. She wanted to summon the Second Prince to the palace to question him immediately, but she didn't expect that she would ruin his plan. But the less she thought about some things, the more she cared about them. After three days of calming down, she finally couldn't help but go out of the palace to meet this enchantress in person. She made up her mind that if she didn't have Liu Shiyi, she would definitely teach a dirty prostitute like Liu Shiyi a lesson.

"Madam, we're here." The eunuch opened the carriage curtain for her with a hoarse voice. She got out of the carriage with the help of the eunuch. At the same time, the jewel chain hanging from the carriage curtain swung with a crisp sound, which could not help but attract attention.

The second prince was originally discussing matters in his own study. When he heard the housekeeper announce that the imperial concubine had arrived, his face turned pale and he drove everyone away. No matter what, he still had to continue to feign friendship with the imperial concubine. Otherwise, he would not be able to rest assured that there would be no one to watch over Emperor Rong in the palace

. "How could that happen, Madam?" He met her in the corridor a few steps after he went out to greet her. Before

he could finish his words, he saw her raise her hand to stop him. "I heard that His Royal Highness the Second Prince had taken in a prostitute, so I was curious and planned to come and see." Imperial Concubine Liu Lang walked straight past him. When she was in the palace, she had already inquired about Liu Shiyi's placement, Huiyuan, a place she was very familiar with.

"Madam, you can't leave the palace so hastily." The second prince chased after her and held her wrist tightly.

He knew how terrible jealousy was between women, and because of that, he couldn't let her go. Liu Shiyi was someone he had prepared to be of great use to.

"Men and women should not touch each other." Liu Lang glanced at him and insisted on going forward.

Seeing that he could not stop her, the second prince suddenly came up with a plan and whispered, "The pearl that the queen wanted has been found. Do you want to go and see it together?"

Liu Lang knew that she was the most greedy in his eyes. However, if it were in the past, she would definitely be happy to confirm her greedy image and go with him. But today, the more he tried to stop her, the more it proved that Liu Shiyi was important to him. There can't be another woman in this world who is more important to the second prince than her.

"Liu Lang, don't make trouble." Seeing that she was still not moved, the second prince also got angry, "Why don't you stay in the palace? What are you doing out here!"

"I'm not making trouble." Liu Lang was also a little sad, and the smart eyes under the exquisite makeup were instantly stained with moisture.

Before she entered the palace, she was just an ordinary fisherman with nothing. By chance, she won the favor of the second prince and was sent to the palace after being trained by the second prince himself. With the help of the second prince, she took her current position step by step. Although Emperor Rong had been decisive in killing, she was just a young girl. She could not feel the slightest bit of joy for Emperor Rong, who was older than her father. However, she was willing to stay by Emperor Rong's side. In order to gain the favor of Emperor Rong, she was even willing to do everything she did not want to do. And the reason why she was willing to do all this was because she loved the Second Prince, and the Second Prince also had her in his heart. But if the Second Prince no longer had her in his heart, what was the point of her staying in the palace, staying by the side of the half-paralyzed Emperor Rong.

When the Second Prince and Liu Lang were arguing, the Crown Prince sneaked into the palace accompanied by Fu Jian. The secret report that the Imperial Concubine and the Second Prince had an unusual relationship was transmitted by Liu Shiyi from the Second Prince's residence. With this in mind, they had already planned what happened today, and they were just waiting for the Imperial Concubine to leave the palace so that they could enter the palace.

Fu Jian had several old friends in the palace earlier, and they helped a lot this time. After the two pretended to be eunuchs and entered the palace, they went all the way to Emperor Rong's Qianlong Palace, and the fewer the imperial guards were along the way. Fu Jian was more and more certain of his thoughts in his heart - Emperor Rong was not in good health.

In fact, there were signs that Emperor Rong was not in good health. When he was young, Emperor Rong fought against the rebels under Emperor Qin. He was injured many times and had a root of illness. After usurping the throne, he was not idle and led many battles. I think Emperor Rong sent the prince to Lai County to guard it this time. He must have wanted to help him gain military experience and secure his position. But I didn't expect the prince to be so useless.

"The Qianlong Hall is in front. I will go in alone, and you will keep watch for me outside." There was no guard outside the Qianlong Hall, and the prince was determined to go in alone. Of course, he had his own purpose for this plan.

Fu Jian did not expose his little thoughts and precautions against him. He nodded solemnly and turned over to hide on the pillar.

The moment the prince pushed the door in, he looked up at him, wondering if his move would make him unhappy and make him no longer have his support.

"Go quickly and come back soon." Fu Jian waved at him, as if he didn't care, so he went in at ease.

Fu Jian thought that the prince would be delayed for a long time, but he came out in less than half an incense stick.

"How is it?" Fu Jian asked.

The prince shook his head and pointed to the bulging thing in his sleeve, "We have to leave the palace quickly." He didn't know if he had concealed the panic in his expression, but now he could only bet that Fu Jian didn't notice it and that Fu Jian was willing to stand by his side.

Fu Jian understood something, turned over from the pillar, and took him all the way.

"When you left the palace, did you send someone to guard the emperor's bedroom?" The second prince suddenly remembered this and asked hurriedly. Seeing her shaking her head, he looked at her sinisterly and quickly summoned the butler, "Prepare the horses, I want to go to the palace."

He was afraid that she would fall into someone else's trap. The prince and Fu Jian were not caught, and they didn't leave Dongdu. They must be hiding in the city, waiting for such an opportunity. He must not, must not, let them take advantage of the situation.

"What's wrong? Emperor Rong is paralyzed and he can't run away." Liu Lang's matter-of-fact tone made the second prince even more disgusted. He didn't get angry at the time, but he didn't continue to talk to her.

"Did I say something wrong? That old thing has been unable to cause any trouble for a long time." Liu Lang wiped the tears from her cheeks, picked up the hem of her skirt and chased in the direction he left.

A woman suddenly stood up from the flowers not far behind the two of them, showing an expected expression. Shi Yi had only guessed that Emperor Rong was ill earlier, but she didn't expect that Emperor Rong's physical condition was so bad. It's just that I don't know if the two have succeeded yet. And today Liu Lang's visit to the mansion made her even more certain that the two had an affair. It seems that her previous guess was not wrong.

Seeing that the two were about to reach the palace gate, the prince finally breathed a sigh of relief. The second prince, who came on horseback, ordered the guards to close all palace gates and check the identities of all palace people.
