Chapter 526 The Princess Who Was Widowed Early (19)

Jiaoge.

Today is the monthly courtesan singing and dancing competition. The poor guests basically sit on the first floor, while the rich ones basically book the tea room on the second floor, where all kinds of exquisite snacks are available in unlimited quantities.

"Lord Song is really far-sighted. I am beginning to doubt whether you are on the side of the Fifth Prince." The young man dressed up and drank by himself. Behind the screen next to her sat Song Weicheng, who was also in disguise.

"Why do you care so much? As long as we haven't become enemies yet, we are allies who can cooperate." He looked at the stage downstairs. The courtesan with a soft waist had just turned over from the ground. Her eyes inadvertently flew to the second floor opposite. She must have known where the noble person tonight was.

"I heard that there is an important person sitting in the opposite hall. This curtain has never been opened." He asked her inconspicuously.

"Since Lord Song knows it, why ask me?" Shi Yi threw a peanut into her mouth. Fortunately, her delicate appearance did not make her look vulgar, but revealed a bit of the innocence and cuteness of a young man.

The men who were fond of men downstairs did not look at the courtesan, but stared at her. Shi Yi was not angry, and smiled at them in a good-tempered manner. Song Weicheng frowned at the infatuated look of the men, "You should not be too ostentatious outside, these ordinary people are difficult to deal with."

"With Lord Song who is as resourceful as Zhuge Liang in the world, I am not worried." Shi Yi held his chin and continued to throw peanuts into his mouth.

What happened last night can basically be said to be within Song Weicheng's expectations. Obviously, he had already mastered everything.

The fifth prince is no longer a force to be reckoned with now. The family behind his biggest helper, Concubine Shu, will certainly not support him after what happened last night. And the third prince, who is the only one in power on the surface, is actually hated by the officials of the fifth prince's faction. The Fifth Prince was drunk in Taiye Lake and was demoted by Emperor Rui, but they put it on the Third Prince. Gu Changfeng seemed to be forgotten.

Could Song Weicheng be Gu Changfeng's invisible supporter?

No, he was.

She looked at him behind the screen and whispered, "Lord Song will be very successful in the future, so he won't take advantage of me."

"How is that possible?" Song Weicheng put his hand on his forehead and laughed, "We will definitely be rich and powerful, and we will not forget each other." Shi Yi

looked at him through the screen, with a smile on his lips, "Happy cooperation."

The two turned their heads away, and everything was self-evident.

At halftime, the courtesan went down to rest, and the curtain opposite was finally drawn.

Shi Yi and Song Weicheng looked at the empty tea room and laughed from ear to ear. Those who knew them knew that the Third Prince was going to fail this time.

The Third Prince was supposed to be out on business today, but was secretly brought here by his subordinates. He refused at first, but when he saw the pure and charming courtesan on the stage downstairs, his legs could not move.

His subordinates who tried to please him arranged a room for him so that he could spend the night with the courtesan. The courtesan might know his identity and used all her skills to please him, making him feel ecstatic. When he was enjoying himself to the climax, he thought of the tigress in his mansion, who was not only overbearing but also boring and indifferent to such things. He was almost impotent.

It was a rare opportunity to enjoy such fun, and he forgot his proper job. When dusk fell, he was ready to go back. When he said goodbye to the courtesan, he found that she was dead in his bed.

He put on his clothes and went out screaming. Outside the door, the madam and the pimp handcuffed him with one hand each and started to yell, "Someone slept with you without paying and ate a free meal. Neighbors, come and have a look."

He was anxious and angry, knowing that he was being plotted against. He shouted loudly for the subordinates who brought him here, but they were nowhere to be found. While he was still struggling, he was tied up tightly.

The madam escorted him to the government office, shouting in a very loud voice, "I want to see if there is still justice. We earned our money through hard work, and you dare to just leave."

The pimp went into the room and came out again, his eyes were terrified, his voice was hoarse, "The courtesan, the courtesan, he tortured her to death."

"Ah!" The madam was stunned, and the crowd watching was also stunned. The madam finally came to her senses and stopped taking him to the yamen. She sat on the ground and started crying, "My cash cow, my precious child, why are you so miserable? You met such a black-hearted person."

Fearing that she would really attract the yamen runners to make a big deal, the third prince took the initiative to reveal his identity in a panic. He thought these people would be afraid of the emperor's power, but they started throwing eggs and vegetable leaves at him and scolding him in various ways.

When his eyes were almost unable to open due to the eggs, he heard the voice of Li Xian, the governor of Jingjiwei, riding in the distance. Jingjiwei was directly supervised by the emperor, and Li Xian was directly under the emperor's orders. He seemed to have foreseen his own end.

"What happened?" Li Xian, who came over after encountering passers-by reporting to the police, saw such a noisy scene and shouted directly on his horse.

"Master, you have to make the decision for us." The old procuress crawled under his horse fearlessly, crying and complaining, "He killed my daughter."

"He? Who is he?" Li Xian's eyes were fixed on the tied man with his head down, like a hawk. He felt that he was familiar with this man. There was

no way to avoid it. The third prince raised his head and smiled bitterly at him: "Master Li, everything is a misunderstanding."

"Third prince, how could it be you!" Li Xian was shocked, and his brothers following him were also shocked.

They all understood how serious the impact of the royal children visiting prostitutes outside and killing prostitutes in broad daylight was.

The next day, Emperor Rui was furious in the court, stripped the third prince of his title, and detained him in the clan house.

The third prince and the fifth prince, the two candidates for the crown prince who were originally favored by all officials, were dealt with one after another within two days. This was unprecedented. All officials were in danger and did not dare to speak loudly in the court.

After kicking out the disobedient Third Prince and Fifth Prince, Emperor Rui pushed Gu Changfeng in front of all the court officials. At this time, all the civil and military officials more or less understood Emperor Rui's true intentions.

Because of the origin of Gu Changfeng's mother, the Lord of Donghua City had had conflicts with Emperor Rui, and the old officials all stood aside and planned to wait and see, so as to protect themselves. However, the eldest princess did something they did not expect at this time, and actually recommended the Seventh Prince as the Crown Prince.

What surprised them even more was that Emperor Rui agreed.

The old officials who had never been close to the Seventh Prince began to keep silent collectively, but later they all exploded.

Thank you for the monthly tickets from Shaoqing and other cute girls yesterday and the recommendation tickets from other cute girls. Best wishes.
