"The princess...seems not to be here. I don't know who walked into the room first and gave Aunt Qingshuang the medicine."

The little maid recalled carefully that when she came to deliver the medicine, Qingshuang had already finished drinking it. Although she felt something was wrong at that time, she didn't say anything.

"I understand. You can leave first."

"yes."

Rong Zhen looked quietly at the cold body on the bed with his clear yet bottomless eyes. He walked to Gu Yunru and patted her shoulder.

"I'll go check on Aomine first."

"Um."

Gu Yunru felt mixed emotions and was indescribably upset. After watching Rong Zhen walk away, she looked at Qing Xing and said, "Bring my flowery red coat over to her and put it on her."

"Princess... that was a gift from the prince." Qing Xing hesitated. Normally, the princess would not show off the jacket, but she had to put it on.

"Just go when I tell you to. When did you have more ideas than mine?"

Gu Yunru looked at Qingxing who was becoming more and more presumptuous, her face full of displeasure. Qingxing knew that she talked too much, so she pursed her lips and left in anger.

"Qingshuang, take the child with you and go peacefully." Gu Yunru covered Qingshuang with a blanket. The child was stillborn. He hoped that the mother and child could be reunited in the underworld.

Rong Zhen came to the room. There was only a candle lit in the room. The dim light made it impossible to see Qingfeng's expression.

"Prince, don't stop me! I want to kill that bitch!" Qingfeng even sharpened the knife, just wanting to kill her swiftly.

"Leave this matter to me." Rong Zhen didn't want Qingfeng to make a mistake. This matter had serious implications. If Kodar was angered, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Your Highness! You are considering Kodar again, right?" Qingfeng's dark long hair hung down on his shoulders, emitting a faint glow. He was tall and slender, his face was full of fatigue and vicissitudes, and his eyes were turbid and dull as he stared at Rong Zhen.

In his eyes, the prince had never hesitated like this. Did a mere Kodar scare him like this? Rong Zhen did not speak, but sat aside with a blank expression. A mouse ran past the wall, making a squeak. Rong Zhen took the cup in his hand and threw it lightly, and the mouse became silent.

"Your Majesty!"

Qingfeng didn't understand what Rong Zhen meant, he just wanted to ask for his forgiveness. He must kill that vicious woman with his own hands.

"Why are you in such a hurry?"

Rong Zhen said indifferently, and Qingfeng was excited when he saw the light in his eyes.

"Does the prince already have an idea?"

His sword-like eyebrows slanted into the few strands of black hair at the temples. He looked excited and the only thing on his mind was revenge.

Those were two lives, his first wife and his unborn child! He must settle this account! "Don't go anywhere in the courtyard. I will give you an explanation for this matter."

"Okay, Qingfeng believes in the prince." Qingfeng also handed over his affairs to the prince for the last time.

The scene changes, and Rong Zhen meets with Kodar to discuss peace, and the location is in a private room of Ruyi Inn.

"I didn't expect that the prince was finally willing to see me. I thought that the prince was going to turn his back on me." Kodar led his men to quietly camp nearby, waiting for news from Qingyu, hoping to meet Rong Zhen openly through Qingyu.

"I have a business I want to do with you."

"What?"

Kodar looked at Rong Zhen excitedly. He always gave off a cold aura, but he still felt a little proud if he could work with such a dignified prince.

"Gambling houses, military supplies. If you want to rebel, you must have military supplies. I'll recommend you a few gambling houses. Find a way to reach a cooperation with the people in charge there." Rong Zhen was setting a huge trap, waiting for Kodal to successfully jump into it.

"Your Highness Prince Zhao is so willing to help me?" Kodar saw that Rong Zhen had been hesitant before, so he subconsciously began to doubt.

"If you don't want to cooperate with me, just take Qingyu and leave." Rong Zhen's words were extremely brief and he didn't want to bargain with him. If he believed it, he believed it. If he didn't believe it, he didn't believe it.

"Don't! Is there any reason not to believe what His Royal Highness Prince Zhao said?" Kodar laughed so loudly that it could be heard in the next room.

Three cups of wine laid the foundation of trust between the two.

The trap was being set up in full swing, and Kodar believed in Rong Zhen without a doubt. On an ordinary morning one day, someone was killed in a gambling house, and the matter attracted the attention of the government.

The cause was very simple, it was because two gamblers fought over money.

This incident attracted the attention of the government. The Xie family had already informed the government that if there was any trouble in the casino, they would just say a few words and would not investigate it in depth.

If something inappropriate is involved, and if something happens to the officials in charge of the government, the Xie family will not be able to protect them.

Several officials discussed and hoped to make a big deal out of a small matter, but they didn't expect that at the critical moment, Prince Zhao would come.

"Prince! Please save Chai San!" This man was Chai San's brother-in-law, Chai Liu. They both worked in Prince Zhao's mansion for about six years. The one who was beaten to death was Chai San.

The dead were people from Prince Zhao's Mansion, so Rong Zhen had a legitimate reason to come and supervise the adults in handling the case. Several adults discussed letting the rioters go to Prince Zhao's Mansion to apologize, but Chai Liu refused to let go.

"Your Highness! Although Chai San likes to gamble, he only goes there every now and then. I didn't expect that group of people to be so vulgar and beat Chai San to death. Please, Your Highness, take care of Chai San. I have been working like a slave in the palace for about eight years. Chai San is a person of character, and Your Highness should know that."

Chai Liu kowtowed as he carried Chai San's body into the yamen. Several officials turned a blind eye to it, but the moment they saw Rong Zhen, they were all like frightened birds.

"Your Highness Prince Zhao, I didn't expect that you would come in person for such a small matter. We old guys are really embarrassed!"

The person who came before Rong Zhen was the third-rank governor, Lord Du'an. He was also Xie Yihui's disciple. He had already figured out the structure and factions of these people. If he didn't come to give Chai Liu justice, the matter might have been hastily settled.

"I just came here to take a look and understand what happened. Chai Liu is an honest man. I believe there must be something difficult to handle in this matter."

Rong Zhen spoke in a lazy tone and looked very relaxed. He sat aside, as if he was just strolling around the street casually one day. His expression was very relaxed, but several governors were frightened and looked horrified.
