Chapter 1173 What if I really go crazy?
Wanwan knew clearly in her heart that her mother would definitely select a few people from plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum to inform the Duke Dingguo's Mansion of what happened in the palace, and she would definitely let them learn to protect themselves.
But what if my father is really crazy?
What if he is really determined to take action against the Crown Prince and the Duke Dingguo's Mansion this time?
Even if the Duke Dingguo's Mansion knew about it in advance, what could they do?
If the Duke Dingguo's Mansion does not rise up in resistance at that time, then death will be the only thing waiting for them.
If you resist, even if you have no rebellious intentions, you will probably be labeled as such by someone with ulterior motives.
Either way, the outcome is dire.
The problem is that the Duke of Dingguo's family has been loyal for generations and they cannot be labeled as "traitors".
So now, there is only one way, and that is to let the eldest senior brother go and lend a helping hand to my grandfather and the others.
After hearing what Wanwan said, Lu Jingming did not hesitate at all.
He turned around decisively and headed for Duke Dingguo's Mansion.
Seeing that Senior Brother was so anxious, Wanwan was afraid that he didn't understand what she meant, so she grabbed Senior Brother's arm.
She looked at Lu Jingming solemnly, "Brother, don't fight with them. Just protect Duke Dingguo's Mansion and don't let others enter without permission."
Seeing Wanwan's anxious look, Lu Jingming reached out and gently touched her hair, as if to reassure her: "Don't worry, nothing will happen to the Duke of Dingguo's Mansion. I'm here for you. You just need to take care of your own affairs."
Seeing Wanwan so anxious, Lu Jingming suddenly felt a surge of sadness in his heart.
He thought of the time when the Tianji Sect was in trouble.
At that time, Wanwan was still a baby in swaddling clothes, but now she has grown into an adult who can stand on her own.
Although in my own eyes, she is still a child, but looking at her appearance now, I think if my master and mistress saw her, they would feel relieved.
I was worried this time and came to this mortal world to look for her because I thought she was just a child who couldn't protect herself if something happened.
But now it seems that I underestimated Wanwan.
She doesn't even have to use her spiritual power to be a very good mortal princess in this mortal world.
After receiving the promise from her senior brother, Wanwan finally felt relieved.
She knew that since her senior brother had said this, he would definitely help her protect the Duke Dingguo's Mansion.
In this case, you can rest assured.
She didn't stop and ran straight towards the clan house.
Someone has just delivered the news to Qingyun Palace. Now the Crown Prince has been imprisoned in the clan residence by order of our father.
This time, my father has really been cruel to my brother, the Crown Prince.
Who doesn't know what this Zongrenfu is?
Who was imprisoned in this Zongrenfu? The third prince.
The third prince was a real traitor, so he was imprisoned here.
Now that his father has locked up his brother, the Crown Prince, here, what is he thinking?
But to be honest, the Crown Prince actually has no rivals now.
If it were in the past, Lu Xingwan would be worried.
After all, there is Concubine De, and the third and fifth princes born to her.
But what about now? Now all of my father's sons look up to my brother, the crown prince.
Even if we really need to replace the crown prince, it would only be the second elder brother.
After all, the fourth elder brother has half the blood of the Dali Kingdom, so the emperor can never choose him.
And the Seventh Emperor is still young, so I’m afraid his father won’t choose him.
Second brother will definitely not let anything happen to the Crown Prince.
Thinking of this, Lu Xingwan let out a long sigh.
Forget it, there is no need to think about these.
Now, as long as I am here, I will not let my father hurt my brother the Crown Prince in any way.
Lu Xingwan didn't want to think too much, she went straight to the clan house, the direction where the prince was imprisoned.
Of course, in order to avoid trouble, she used some spiritual power.
But even so, on the way to find the Crown Prince, I felt the gloomy and coldness in this clan's mansion. This atmosphere made me feel a little breathless.
Now the Crown Prince and his female relatives are imprisoned separately.
Wanwan ran along the dim and damp passage all the way to the cell where the crown prince was imprisoned.
The prince did not expect Wanwan to come back.
Perhaps he knew in his heart that once he entered this clan's residence, there was a high chance that he would not have the chance to leave.
And given my father's temper, he would never allow anyone to visit him at this time.
Lu Xingwan looked at the prince in the corner for a moment.
Now the prince's hair is a little messy and his clothes are slightly wrinkled.
But judging from his appearance, he probably wasn't tortured.
It seems that the people in the Zongren Mansion still have some sense of propriety after all, which made Lu Xingwan breathe a sigh of relief.
The Crown Prince is now sitting quietly in the cell alone, but he still exudes the graceful bearing that a crown prince should have.
His demeanor of a superior who remained calm in the face of danger made Wanwan smile bitterly.
Then, she called softly, "Brother Crown Prince."
The prince, who was originally thinking with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes when he heard Wanwan's voice, his eyes full of surprise.
He stood up hurriedly and ran towards Wanwan.
Perhaps it was because he had been sitting for too long, or perhaps it was because he was feeling flustered, but the prince's steps were a little unsteady as he walked towards Wanwan.
"Wanwan, why are you here?"
He knew that Wanwan had learned some kung fu outside over the years.
But this is the clan residence after all, and he knows the clan residence's defensive capabilities. Logically speaking, even if Wanwan has martial arts skills, he should not be able to break in.
He was actually afraid that Wanwan would attack the guards outside on impulse for his sake.
At this point, he seemed to have accepted his fate and accepted that he was being punished by his father.
But in his heart, he felt full of guilt towards his family.
He knew that his Crown Princess Han Xiyue was also imprisoned in this clan residence, along with his eldest son and his little daughter who had just turned one month old.
Everyone thinks that the Crown Princess is extremely glamorous, but during these years in the palace, he is the only one who knows how difficult it is for Xiyue.
Although she had already finished her confinement, the prince still cared about her health from the bottom of his heart.
Over the years, he thought that his hard work was enough to make his father feel at ease.
But I didn't expect such a disturbance to happen suddenly.
But in addition to worrying about the Crown Princess and his two children who had been imprisoned with him, he was also worried that this turmoil of his would involve his aunt, Wanwan, and the Duke Dingguo's Mansion.
These were what he relied on in the past, but now, they are even more of a concern in his heart.
Seeing the prince so panicked, Lu Xingwan couldn't help but feel tears welling up in her eyes.
The Crown Prince was so calm just now, he really has nothing to regret.
Now he is so panic-stricken, it must be because of his family.
What about my father? Why is he so heartless?
