Chapter 139: A Grand Game of Chess



It seems that Zhao Shi'an deliberately leaked the information about Consort Li to the Third Prince. Knowing that the Third Prince was impatient, and with the Wan Hua Lou incident as a pretext, Zhao Shi'an not only caused the Third Prince to fall out of favor, but also angered the Emperor.
