The emperor really didn't expect that the eldest prince had actually done all these things quietly in the dark.
After the initial surprise, the emperor was left with only joy and relief.
"Among you brothers, I have always liked you the most and have the highest hopes for you. You certainly didn't disappoint me!"
The eldest prince's cheeks flushed with excitement. "Really? By doing this, can I help my father?"
The emperor smiled slightly and said, "Whether you can help me or not depends on what you can smell from these people's mouths."
The eldest prince was stunned at first, but soon understood what the emperor meant.
The most important thing is not what he can ask, but how to make them say something that satisfies the emperor.
In order to avoid giving others a chance to criticize him, the emperor would never say what he was thinking about such matters.
But there is no clear instruction from the emperor, what should we do if the final result does not satisfy the emperor?
He was pressed for time, and if he angered the emperor at this moment, all his efforts would be in vain.
Various thoughts flashed through the eldest prince's mind quickly, but his expression remained dull and blank, making it difficult to tell what he was thinking.
The emperor watched the eldest prince's expression change, but pretended not to see it. He still waited patiently for the eldest prince to answer his question.
The eldest prince did not keep the emperor waiting too long.
"Don't worry, Father. I will never let you down. What I can get out of this question will definitely be the answer you want to hear most."
The emperor didn't care whether the eldest prince really understood it or not. It was not important to the emperor.
If the eldest prince can do this job well, he can give her the task if there are similar things in the future.
If the eldest prince is unable to do this job well, then he can only fill this hole with his own life.
Anyway, he has many sons, so the death of a few of them is no big deal.
"Okay." The emperor smiled and nodded, looking at the eldest prince with even more relief and eagerness. "Then I will wait for your good news."
The eldest prince responded and left excitedly.
As he walked out of the palace, the eldest prince's face was full of excitement.
It was not until he left the palace and got into the carriage that the expression on the eldest prince's face changed slightly.
There was still a smile on his lips, but he had lost his previous honest and gentle look. He had become cunning and vicious.
The circles around his eyes were still a little red, but he looked extremely terrifying, with a bloodthirsty cold light in his eyes.
"Is Zhao Wanxi dead?"
"No. But she and Chu Yanran will both be executed tomorrow."
"Then let's do as planned!"
"yes."

After burning down Concubine De's bedroom, Li Junyan used light Kung Fu to leave the palace and went directly to Lei Shou's house, revealing some things about Concubine De to him.
Li Junyan originally wanted to take the Thunder Beast away with him, but the Thunder Beast was unwilling.
On the same night, a concubine in the harem disappeared, and then he disappeared, and both of them were related to Li Junyan. Anyone could guess that there was something fishy.
Lei Shou was determined not to leave, so Li Junyan had no choice but to let him go.
But before Li Junyan left, he told Lei Shou to go to the Goddess Temple if he had any problems, as that was the only way out.
After giving instructions to the Thunder Beast, Li Junyan left the city overnight.
When he returned to the capital, he used the Anywhere Door. Now that he is leaving the capital, the Anywhere Door cannot be used and he has no horse, so he can only use Qinggong.
Fortunately, Li Junyan had excellent lightness skills and strong internal strength, and he successfully returned to the guest room of the inn before dawn.
Just after sitting down for a while, Lin Qi knocked on the door.
"Your Highness, it's getting late. Should we wash up, eat something and set off?"
"Let everyone pack up and set off on time." Li Junyan said.
When Sang Jueqian heard what Li Junyan said, he frowned.
Before she could say anything, she heard Li Junyan explaining in a low voice.
"We must have someone watching us along the way, reporting to Chang'an at all times. If there is no unexpected situation and we suddenly stop to rest for an extra day, Chang'an will definitely become suspicious."
Sang Jueqian understood that what Li Junyan said was the truth, but he still couldn't help feeling a little distressed.
We have been busy all night and don’t even have time to rest for a while, but we have to continue on our journey. This is too tiring!
