Chapter 173 This kid really tried his best to eat melons

Lu Yanshi frowned slightly. How could Prince Rui die out of the blue?

Helian Qian was stunned when he heard the news. He had an indescribable feeling in his heart. His nominal father was dead? Just like that?

He has not yet avenged his mother personally.

[Oh my god, Guagua, what's wrong with you? You didn't even remind me of such a big melon. ]

Lu Li was also shocked, and decisively turned on the melon-eating system to eat melons.

When Lu Yanshi heard her thoughts, he immediately pricked up his ears.

[It turns out that it was Shao who poisoned Prince Rui to death. ]

Shaw Brothers?

Lu Yanshi was stunned for a moment before he realized who this Shao Shi was.

Isn't this the cheating ex-wife of the late emperor's elder brother?

After being kicked out by the Xu family, she and her daughter Xu Minghua took the money and ran away. They met Prince Rui and were taken in as concubines by him.

Thinking of this, Lu Yanshi felt a chill and felt even more disgusted with his younger brother, Prince Rui.

[Wow, this poison was given to her by Princess Helian.]

[This chronic poison has been used for so long, it is reasonable that the Shaw family would not be suspected.]

[How can this King Rui be so mean, scolding an old woman? His daughter deserves to die. ]

[She also said that given her condition, it was a blessing for her that he could sleep with her. ]

【Oh my god, is this human language?】

[No wonder he got so angry that he stabbed him to death while he was drunk.]

[It wasn't a vital part that was stabbed, so it could have been saved, but the poisoning had already lasted for a long time, so there was no hope for him.]

Lu Li ate melons and complained at the same time.

There were just too many flaws in this matter and she couldn't help it.

"I understand. Please leave." After knowing the cause of King Rui's death, Lu Yanshi felt embarrassed and didn't even want to ask another question.

The eunuch stepped back.

Helian Qian, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up: "Uncle Huang, can I see him?"

"Sure." Lu Yanshi didn't expect him to make such a request. He thought he hated King Rui to the core and didn't want to see him.

Fearing that the people in the Rui Palace were blind, Lu Yanshi ordered, "Cao Dehai, send Helian Prince off."

"I obey your command." Cao Dehai agreed and took Helian Qian to Prince Rui's Mansion.

"Prince Helian of Dongluo has come to pay his respects to the prince."

When they arrived at Prince Rui's Mansion, Cao Dehai introduced Helian Qian's identity to everyone.

The butler was shocked when he saw Helian Qian.

Others didn't know, but he knew. This Helian Prince was the nameless youngest son of the Rui King who was bullied by everyone.

Helian Qian has changed so much that those who bullied him can hardly recognize him.

"Captain, the palace is in chaos right now. I'm afraid it's not convenient for the prince to come as a guest," the butler spoke cautiously.

Helian Qian glanced at him with murderous intent in his eyes.

"I am only here to take a look and leave after I am done."

"Yes." The butler didn't dare to say anything more and immediately lowered his head and left.

Helian Qian followed Cao Dehai to take a look at the body of King Rui.

Prince Rui's mansion was in chaos at the moment.

The princess had fainted, and Prince Rui was young and just cried. The concubines did not dare to take over the responsibility of dealing with their father's body, so they just left Prince Rui's body lying on the bed.

It was the housekeeper and the servant who changed him into clean clothes.

The murderer Shao was beaten to death on the spot by the excited princess.

"Let's go." Helian Qian actually just came to take a look.

Cao Dehai was a little confused, but he had no choice but to leave.

[That shouldn't happen. Did he go through so much trouble just to have a look at Prince Rui? ]

Lu Li stared at Helian Qian using the melon-eating system, but ended up only seeing this ordinary scene.

She was very confused.

Lu Yanshi, who was eavesdropping on her thoughts, was also puzzled.

No one could guess why Helian Qian did this.

[No, there must be something big going on with Helian Qian, I have to keep a close eye on him.]

Lu Li thought so and didn't even go to the Beast Park that night. She just stared at Helian Qian.

It turned out that he was normal. After looking at the corpse of King Rui, he went to a restaurant for a big meal.

Lu Li yawned and nodded repeatedly.

Lu Yanshi felt both amused and distressed.

This kid really tried his best to eat melon.

Xia Shuyi was confused and whispered, "Your Majesty, why is Xiaojiu still awake at this hour tonight?"

Lu Yanshi then told Lu Li that he wanted to eat melons.

Xia Shuyi: ...

She was speechless at this reason.

Finally, Lu Li couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell asleep.

Not long after she fell asleep, Helian Qian, who had been staying in the embassy, ​​took action.

He came to Prince Rui's Palace from the embassy alone.

He climbed over the wall quietly. He had stayed in Prince Rui's Mansion for so many years that he was naturally familiar with the terrain inside.

He found the room where King Rui's body was placed today, and discovered that King Rui's body had been moved to the mourning hall.

Helian Qian went to the servant's room and found some clothes to change into.

Prince Rui's mansion was in chaos, and no one noticed that he had sneaked in.

He went to the mourning hall, lured away the guards, poured wine on King Rui's body, and then burned it mercilessly.

By the time the other people in Prince Rui's Mansion discovered it, it was already too late.

The mourning hall was ablaze.

King Rui was burned to the point where only a corpse was left.

The housekeeper was so frightened that he was shaking all over. It was over, everything was over now.

The princess would definitely blame him for not taking good care of the prince's body. He would definitely end up being caned to death like Shao.

The housekeeper was so scared that he packed his bags and tried to escape overnight.

Unexpectedly, his action was discovered, and everyone thought that he was the one who set fire to the corpse of King Rui, so they directly brought him to the princess.

"It's unfair, it's unfair to me." The butler knelt down and kowtowed, begging for mercy.

But Princess Rui, who was furious, refused to listen.

"Kill him, and then burn him to keep him company, my Lord." Princess Rui gave the order with red eyes.

The butler's legs went limp from fear, and his body became wet.

Helian Qian did not leave. He mingled with the crowd and watched the butler being beaten to death.

This butler bullied him a lot in the past.

He deserved to die.

…

At this time, people were concerned about being buried in peace. When the news that King Rui was burned to the point where only his remains were left spread out, everyone was shocked.

What a huge hatred this must be that even after his death Prince Rui cannot rest in peace.

[Oh my god, I just took a nap, and Helian Qian actually did such a big thing without saying a word! ]

Lu Li ate the melon as soon as she woke up.

She rubbed her head which was messy from sleeping, and always felt that what Helian Qian did was somewhat familiar.

But she couldn't remember why.

King Rui died too suddenly and his tomb was not built yet.

Lu Yanshi didn't care much about his younger brother, so he just pointed to a piece of land and asked him to be buried there as soon as possible.

Unexpectedly, just a few days after King Rui was buried, his tomb was dug up, his ashes were scattered all over the ground, and a wild dog took away a piece.

This incident shocked the entire court.

When Lu Li heard about this, she suddenly stood up from Lu Yanshi's arms.

【Ahhhhhhh, I remember now.】
