【Emperor Chapter 7】Mischief

The two eunuchs hurriedly invited the imperial physician, forgetting to report to their master. When the imperial physician arrived, the abuse that Jingchen had been receiving for a long time was exposed.

Rong Fei was furious and beat the two men to death on the spot. Wouldn't this tell the whole imperial city that she, the kind-hearted concubine who had begged for mercy for the Sixth Prince, had actually not fulfilled her duty of care?

While beating them, the two eunuchs kept shouting that they saw ghosts, saying that it was the ghost of Meng Guiren who made them do this. Although Rong Fei had doubts in her heart, she still broke out in a cold sweat.

Although the outside world said that Meng Guiren was scared to death by the ugliness of the Sixth Prince, Rong Fei knew that it was she and Shu Fei who killed her.

Everyone in the harem knows how favored that villain was. Although she was born in a humble family and was only a noble, she was favored by the emperor. Everyone was guessing that after the Sixth Prince was born, he would definitely become the best candidate for the crown prince, and Lady Meng would definitely move up a level.

Although Concubine Rong looked noncompetitive, she had already had a crisis in her heart. She was born in a prominent family, and her family prepared many things for her to win the competition in the harem, including many secret medicines.

She secretly poisoned Lady Meng, and the fetus in her belly should have been aborted, but she didn't know what went wrong, and Lady Meng was just premature, and she gave birth to a boy.

She secretly hated the medicine for being ineffective, but later she heard that the fetus looked different and the emperor disliked her. Out of curiosity, she went to the palace of Meng Guiren, but Meng Guiren exposed her original plan.

It turned out that she was not the only one who hated Meng Guiren, and Concubine Shu also poisoned him. It was the collision of two poisons with different efficacy that prevented the fetus from dying early in the womb, but also caused him to be born with fetal poison and a strange appearance.

Although she was not prepared in time, Meng Guiren secretly collected evidence after being poisoned. Now, the evidence is confirmed. As long as she implicates them, the two concubines will not be able to escape the crime of murdering the royal heir.

Meng Guiren is already exhausted, but she still wants her son to survive. She assured Rong Fei that only Rong Fei could plead for the child and raise him to adulthood, then she would not only not expose her previous poisoning, but also use her own life to overthrow Shu Fei for her. In this way, Rong Fei would have no more thorns in her eyes, and her child was born like that, and would not be a threat to the throne, so why not?

Rong Fei agreed.

This is the truth of the matter.

So, when Rong Fei heard the name of Meng Guiren again, she was not without fear.

Although she agreed to it, she didn't expect that the Sixth Prince would look so terrible, even more terrible than she imagined. Because the emperor had softened his heart towards the child due to the death of Meng Guiren, and gave him to her to raise, it was too late for Rong Fei to regret, so she could only leave him in a side hall and let him fend for himself. However, she often acted like a loving mother in the name of taking care of the Sixth Prince, which made the emperor praise her frequently.

Now that the two eunuchs had exposed the secret, the image she had cultivated for many years was also shattered.

However, since the incident had already happened, Rong Fei only hated herself for being too careless, and she had never regretted her previous indifference. While ordering the imperial physician to treat the Sixth Prince well, she apologized to the emperor who came after hearing the news.

Although she had used a trick to block the emperor's visit and pretended to be a good boy to let the matter go, Rong Fei also realized that the Sixth Prince was getting older and older, and she couldn't keep him in the harem forever. It would be better to train him well, and maybe he could become a useful dog.

Since then, Rong Fei changed her attitude, pushed all the previous neglect to the two eunuchs, and arranged new eunuchs to serve the Sixth Prince well. On weekdays, she often asked about his well-being.

Children, especially those who lack warmth, are easy to fall for such care.

Rong Fei was determined that she could raise a loyal dog.

And the Sixth Prince did not disappoint her expectations. After a few years, he became a handsome man. If you don't look at his face, it will be a pity.

Only three years after entering the Imperial Academy, the Sixth Prince had won praise from all the Imperial Tutors. His articles were full of wisdom and pointed out current problems. His Six Arts were not inferior to those of the other princes who had studied them since childhood. He was proficient in etiquette, music, and archery.

In order not to scare others, the Sixth Prince had been wearing a half-mask since he appeared in public, covering his terrifying half face tightly.

The mask was as thin as a cicada's wing, with a silver-colored woven feather as the base, and a wolf-like body and dragon-horns painted on it with gold thread, with a sword in its mouth, which was quite majestic and ferocious. However, his other half of the face had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and was very handsome, which neutralized the ferocious aura, making people feel that the mask fit his face very well and couldn't be more suitable.

Someone once asked Jingchen why he painted such a pattern. Jingchen said that he was a dragon son with dragon horns on his forehead, but he was dull and unworthy of a dragon body. He only wanted to be a sharp sword in his father's hand and a loyal wolf to expand the territory for the emperor and defend the country.

When the emperor heard this, he was very happy. When Rong Fei heard this, she thought that the wolf body was Jingchen's submission to her.

But is this really the case?

When Jingchen said this, what came to his mind was a little eunuch who was lying on the table painting a mask and muttering to himself.

"Sixth Prince, do you know what I drew?"

"This mythical beast is called 'Ya Zi'. It is said that it is very majestic, carrying a silver knife, wearing a tattered robe and golden armor, majestic and awe-inspiring, as if it has the power to swallow the moon, and majestic and imposing, as if it has the power to grab the sun. It is the incarnation that can kill all evil, and it is extremely powerful. The Sixth Prince will be so powerful in the future!"

He put on the mask, saw the surprise in the little eunuch's eyes, and touched her head with a smile.

Now, he has grown taller than her. And this little eunuch still treats him as a child.

How could he not know?

Ya Zi, one of the nine sons of the dragon, although he is a dragon, his body is like a jackal. His father was angry and wanted to abandon him, but fortunately his mother begged him and he was able to save his life.

He was indeed like a grudge.

He would repay a favor and would avenge a grudge.

He would never forget those who were good to him. He would avenge those who bullied him no matter how long they had to hide.
