Chu Xiaoxiao was just brought back by him yesterday, and the bomb was detonated last night. Could it be that she did it?
"hiss!"
Prince Duan took a deep breath. She was only a little over one year old. How could she know where his bomb was?
Besides, where she slept was far away from where the bomb was placed, and there were people guarding the door. How did she get in?
What’s even more terrible is that even if she lit the bomb, how could she leave with her short legs?
That damn substitute won't be able to enter the capital until tomorrow evening. There's nothing he can do right now. He might as well bring the girl here to question her!
Although she can't speak, let's see if we can find some way from her to kill the guy in the palace.
When Milk Ball was called over, she had a sour face. Her milk pot was empty and there was no milk. She wanted to drink but couldn't, so she was angry.
Holding the milk jug, he walked up to Prince Duan and slammed it heavily on the stool beside him to express his anger.
I was too short to put the milk jug on his desk in an imposing manner, let alone throw it directly in his face.
There was a hint of dissatisfaction in her eyes. She didn't say anything, just pouted and looked at him coldly.
Prince Duan understood that she wanted to drink milk.
He picked up the milk jug, looked at it, and threw it on the high desk, where Milk Ball couldn't reach it even if he stood on tiptoe.
"If you want to drink milk, it's easy. You have to help me do things."
"snort!"
The little boy rolled his eyes, twisted his head, turned his body, and faced him with his butt. He looked as arrogant as he could be, like a little kitten with its fur standing on end, fierce and cute.
Prince Duan smiled.
"The baby born from the Duke of the Guardian's Mansion is really different. You are not afraid of me? Do you believe that I will lock you up and not give you food or water? If you help me do things, I will give you milk."
Seeing that Chu Xiaoxiao still ignored him, Prince Duan reached out and pulled her over to face him.
"Tell me, are you willing to help me?"
[I won't help you, how old am I? What can I do for you? Using me to threaten my father isn't enough? You still want me to help you? Dream on!]
The little girl lowered her head and ignored her, thinking that she was just a little baby who couldn't understand what he said.
She was just a little kid, so it was normal for her not to understand what he said.
Prince Duan also realized this and immediately changed his statement.
"If you use your ability to help me kill the emperor, I will give you lots of delicious food. You can have whatever you want to eat. Do you want that?"
Chu Xiaoxiao looked up at him, her eyes sparkling, and then nodded. She looked like she would be happy with anything as long as there was something delicious.
Prince Duan was happy. It turned out that this baby of the Chu family was a foodie. This was easy to deal with. As long as she was obedient, she could be provided with delicacies from land and sea every day.
These kids are not simple. We need to win them over first, and then consider how to deal with them after the big thing is done.
"Then it's settled. From now on, as long as you do the things I ask you to do, you can have whatever you want to eat. Remember?"
Chu Xiaoxiao smiled and nodded, then pointed at the milk jug, meaning for Prince Duan to give her milk.
The agreement was reached, and Prince Duan kept his word, having people take him down and provide him with delicious food and drinks. Not only milk, but also chicken legs, prawns, and milk dumplings until his belly was round.
[Let me help you kill the emperor, humph! You are so blind, don't you know I am here to kill you? The Li family father and son are the people the old man wants to protect. It would be easier for you to kill you than for you to kill them.]
The bomb explosion was so powerful that everyone in the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion was terrified.
It is known that a deep pit was blown out in Prince Duan’s Mansion, but no one knows how it was caused.
The Chu family was worried about Chu Xiaoxiao who had entered Prince Duan's Mansion. Fortunately, Crown Prince Li Sizu would send people to deliver news to them every day. Everyone was relieved to learn that she was safe.
The emperor had hinted to Chu Zhinan that the commotion in Prince Duan's Mansion was caused by Chu Xiaoxiao.
Chu Zhinan came back and told this to his family, and they were all dumbfounded.
Old Protector of the Country: "Did the emperor really say that? The explosives in Prince Duan's Mansion were set off by our Xiaoxiao? How did she do it?"
Chu Zhixi: "Dad! No matter how she did it, she did it. She is worthy of being a child of our Chu family, smart and capable."
Chu Zhibei: "So, Prince Duan's most powerful weapon has been scrapped, so the remaining ones are nothing to be afraid of."
The old lady sighed heavily: "Alas! Xiaoxiao is only a little over one year old, but she actually helped to do something earth-shattering. This child is so brave that it makes people feel distressed."
Yang wiped her tears and said nothing. The child had suffered all kinds of misfortunes since childhood, all caused by Prince Duan. She hoped that this time he could be killed completely and he would never fall into such danger again.
She didn't ask her daughter to be rich and powerful, she just hoped that she could live in peace and peace, without worries.
Yu and Wang didn't say anything either. They were worried about Xiaoxiao, wondering if she could return home safely from Prince Duan's Mansion.
As soon as Prince Duan's substitute arrived in the capital and entered Prince Duan's Mansion, he was put under house arrest. Prince Duan himself immediately went to the palace and demanded to take Li Sirui back.
The emperor stared at his brother kneeling in front of him with a solemn expression.
"Prince Duan! You came to the palace and didn't even say you were going to visit the Queen Mother first, but you said you were going to take away the unfilial daughter who abused your mother. Where is your conscience? Has it been eaten by a dog? After all, she is your mother, who has loved you in every way since you were a child.
She is seriously ill, but you don't go to visit her and take care of her. Instead, you are thinking about your disloyal and unfilial concubine who dared to attack the Queen Mother?"
Li Sirui was still hanging on to her last breath, waiting for Prince Duan to come and take her away. The imperial physician had examined her and said that even a god could not save her.
It would be better to let him take her back, so that people won't say that he, the emperor, was cruel and killed the daughter of Prince Duan.
After thirty strokes of the cane, Li Sirui was hanging on with only one breath left.
The imperial physician said that if she moved, her breathing would subside.
He didn't let anyone move it, waiting for Prince Duan to arrive.
Being reprimanded by the Emperor, Prince Duan suddenly did not know how to respond. He had known about the Queen Mother's illness for a long time, and also knew that she was dying and would not be able to survive.
All his bombs were detonated, not a single one was left. He had to take Li Sirui away and ask him for the method of mixing the bombs, otherwise the few people he had would not be able to cause any trouble.
Even if we bring in the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion, we may not have a chance of winning.
"Si Rui is my most beloved daughter. I feel very sad when she was punished with a stick. My royal brother, please allow me to bring her back first, and then I can enter the palace to take care of her!"
The emperor looked at Prince Duan with dignity, smiled coldly, and waved his hand: "Yes!"
"Thank you, my royal brother!"
Prince Duan immediately stood up and went to the Empress Dowager's bedroom. The Emperor looked at his hurried figure and sneered.
His younger brother has always been selfish and doesn't take anyone seriously. Even his own mother would be abandoned once she is no longer useful to him.
So what if the Queen Mother plotted for him?
He hurried to the door of the Queen Mother's bedroom with his men and ordered them to take Li Sirui down from the stool.
"Si Rui! How are you? Father is back!"
