So, if possible, the young prince might actually be his only descendant?
No, no, no!! Absolutely not!! He doesn't deserve it! That scumbag should be childless!!
The comments section went wild; this news was truly shocking.
Xiao Zhixing exited the viewing.
People inside the palace can't cause trouble anymore, but the Zhang family outside the palace can still cause problems.
And the person who instigated this found out too quickly; it's a bit strange.
I searched my memory for information about the Zhang family.
Zhang Rengui, the head of the Zhang family, is Xiao Yan's maternal uncle, so Xiao Zhixing should call him "little maternal uncle".
Zhang Rengui has now succeeded Lin Xiudao as the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review. He has two sons and one daughter, the eldest daughter being Consort Zhang Xiu.
This person was able to step on his niece's life to elevate his daughter to the position of Imperial Concubine; he was a ruthless and capable man.
His two sons were of average talent. The younger son served as a fourth-rank county official in the local area, while the elder son stayed in the capital and served as a third-rank Hanlin scholar in the Hanlin Academy.
He has four grandsons and two granddaughters.
Among them, the eldest grandson, Zhang Dun, was highly regarded and was the third-generation successor carefully taught by Zhang Rengui.
"I'll choose you."
She was too lazy to engage in profound calculations.
High-level political maneuvering is often this simple—humanitarian elimination.
Ying Er was ordered to cripple his right hand without leaving any evidence, but they should be able to guess.
Like I said before, come and bite me if you dare.
You're allowed to assassinate, but I'm not allowed to retaliate? That's so unfair.

Xiao Zhixing was assassinated first, and that night the Crown Prince summoned the imperial physician from his palace. Later, news came that his leg was completely crippled.
Then, in the latter half of the night, the Zhang residence was brightly lit, and Zhang Dun of the Zhang family broke both his wrists in his room.
For a moment, everyone felt a pang of sadness.
Xiao Zhixing is just like Xiao Yuanshan; he seeks revenge without delay, and his methods are simple and brutal. His attacks always seem to strike right where it hurts, leaving you in excruciating pain.
Everyone was waiting for the emperor's reaction. After all, his only son had been deposed, and they couldn't just tolerate this, could they?
Or is she really the emperor's...?
Some were even more worried: if the eldest prince is deposed, what will happen to the throne in the future?
Some people have even planned to petition the emperor to select more beauties so that it might still be possible to have a few more princes.
In this atmosphere, the grand entry ceremony into the city was held as scheduled the next day.
