Chapter 268 The Prince Regent Arrives

Seeing Concubine Hui in tears, Ling Changyu finally softened his heart.

After he was born, Ling Changyu and his mother lived together in the harem, and he had seen many ups and downs.

He gently raised his hand and wiped the corners of Concubine Hui's eyes, and his voice became much gentler: "Then, mother, do you still have feelings for him?"

The only thing Ling Changyu cared about was his mother's feelings.

Concubine Hui looked back at Doctor Gu, then shook her head: "It's gone a long time ago."

At that time, she had been in the palace for several years.

But the time she could spend with the emperor was very little.

Sometimes, she couldn't even see the emperor for several months.

She had no strong backing, and her pregnancy was not very good. When she first entered the palace, she was cast into the category of old and ugly after not getting pregnant after serving the emperor for a few times.

At that time, the imperial physician Gu was a young talent, the youngest and most talented imperial physician in the imperial city. He had a clean family background and a family of medical skills. No matter what he was, he was first-class.

When Concubine Hui was sick, after meeting him a few times, he quickly fell in love with him. The man was in love with the concubine, but they ended up on a path of no return.

Fortunately, the two hid it very well.

No one had discovered it for so many years.

In the harem, Concubine Hui did not fight or compete. She raised her son well and tried to be a transparent person, not valued by anyone.

At first, the noble concubine, the empress, and others would criticize her every now and then, but later they found out that her son was uneducated and a playboy, so they were completely relieved.

As a result, both mother and son were safe. After

the death of the previous emperor, Concubine Hui thought that her hard days were finally over, and she no longer worried about her son's life experience being discovered.

But the imperial physician Gu had an idea, and came to see her secretly, and mentioned the matter of letting the third prince sit on the throne.

The prince was in crisis at that time, and she agreed without thinking when she was hot-headed.

This promise fueled the ambition of the imperial physician Gu.

The initial plan of the two included the assassination of the emperor and the assassination of the princess, and the framing of the crime.

The secret guard of the Chu family was the most critical link.

After the Crown Prince and the Second Prince were in trouble, the only person the Regent could support was the Third Prince Ling Changyu.

The plan went smoothly.

The Second Prince and the Chu family were imprisoned.

But the Third Prince suddenly went to the palace and disappeared.

As a result, Concubine Hui did not dare to act recklessly, and even put the matter of taking action against the Crown Prince on hold, waiting until her son appeared.

Such a careful plan was finally discovered by Ling Fengxun. She and Doctor Gu both felt that the Regent was suspicious of them.

Even during the New Year, she captured her two brothers-in-law to make a fuss.

Everything was out of control.

After listening to his mother's thoughts, Ling Changyu nodded and said, "Since there is no one left, just kill him."

His voice fell.

The three assassins understood Ling Changyu's meaning instantly.

Almost without any hesitation, they rushed straight towards Doctor Gu.

The weapons on the three of them had been confiscated, and they were going to break Doctor Gu's neck with their bare hands.

Doctor Gu was scared out of his wits, but he didn't want to die.

"Wanyi, Changyu..."

However, the two people he called didn't say anything.

Although Concubine Hui was a little worried that the news would really be spread after his death, this was her son's decision.

She had told her son everything, and she decided to listen to his choice this time.

One of the assassins grabbed Doctor Gu in an instant, and Doctor Gu's cheeks turned red in an instant. He couldn't make a sound, and kicked desperately with his hands and feet.

Ling Changyu was standing by and watching him struggle without any emotion.

Then he said to his mother, "He is already dead in the eyes of outsiders. If he really has a backup plan, then no matter whether he is dead or alive now, this news will be known to everyone in half a month."

Concubine Hui suddenly realized.

It seems to be true.

She turned her head with an angry look on her face: "You lied to me?"

There must be no backup plan.

Doctor Gu must have just found an excuse to threaten her so that she would not dare to kill him.

This is also Doctor Gu's way of protecting himself.

Doctor Gu's face became more and more ugly. He also heard the conversation between the two. His eyes were full of bloodshot, and the corners of his mouth were bitten by his teeth, but he couldn't say a word.

He felt suffocated and felt like he was going to die.

At this moment, someone at the door suddenly shouted anxiously, "Oh no, someone broke into Prince Yu's mansion!"

Ling Changyu and Concubine Hui's expressions froze at the same time.

Fortunately, Ling Changyu calmed down first. He just glanced at the dying doctor Gu next to him, and then patted his mother's hand, "Mom, don't worry, I'll go see."

Ling Changyu was about to push the door open and walk out.

But before he could stretch out his hand, the door opened first.

The person who just reported the news was lying on the ground, not knowing whether he was dead or alive. Ling Changyu raised his eyes with an ugly face and looked at the person who came under the night.

Regent Prince, Ling Feng is burning!

Ling Changyu was stunned on the spot.

There were many things he didn't expect.

For example, why was someone breaking into the mansion in the middle of the night?

Or, how could Uncle Huang come so quickly?

Ying Feng, who was standing beside Ling Feng Huang, suddenly raised his hand and stabbed the wrist of the killer who was holding Doctor Gu's neck with a flying knife.

The killer screamed and had no choice but to loosen his fingers, allowing Doctor Gu to escape and fall to the ground.

Doctor Gu escaped from death and breathed in big gulps of air.

His throat was burning with pain, as if his larynx was broken.

He was too weak to stand up from the pain and sat in the corner.

Because of the presence of Ling Fengxun's men, the other killers in the room did not dare to move.

It was a joke. To commit murder in front of the Regent was simply courting death.

Ling Fengxun took a look at the scene in the room. He

suddenly raised the corners of his lips, and there was a hint of teasing in his eyes.

"Oh, it's quite lively."

After sighing, he walked in and found a neatly placed chair to sit down.

Everyone present did not dare to speak nonsense.

Concubine Hui was pale as she stayed beside Ling Changyu. The skin on her cheeks twitched a little. She raised her eyes cautiously, afraid of angering the famous Huo Yan King.

"My Lord, you came here late at night. Is there anything important?"

If someone else broke into the palace, she would definitely have someone arrest him at the first time.

But Ling Fengxun broke into the palace, so she had to be concerned about whether the other party's feet hurt when he kicked the door.

Ling Fengxun said in a relaxed manner, "There are indeed some important matters, such as catching the murderer who assassinated the court official in the capital last night."
