Chen Siyuan raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face with her sleeve. She was about to pull Tao Yifan away when she saw that the people who came were Chunping, Chunlan and others whom she knew. She felt relieved.
Looking at Tao Yifan again, he was still facing away from her, just like when she first met him after her rebirth. He still had a straight back and a noble posture, making her feel that he was unapproachable.
She walked up behind Tao Yifan in a few steps, took off the amber bracelet that her mother had left her, and put it in Tao Yifan's hand.
"This was left to me by my mother. Please keep it for me for the time being."
Tao Yifan raised his hand and looked at the bracelet in his hand. It was a very strange thing. He couldn't tell what material it was made of. When he saw the pattern, he remembered a scene he had accidentally seen before. He was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
If it's true, his daughter should be safe.
"My original purpose in coming to the capital was to find out the true cause of my mother's death. Now, my abilities are limited, and it's not very convenient for me to carry this with me."
Tao Yifan looked at the bracelet in front of him and said in a low voice, "I'll wait for you."
These words were like a vow, and also like a reminder to oneself.
He only turned around when he heard the footsteps behind him gradually fading away, and looked at the woman who was being protected as she left.
Looking at the bracelet in his hand again, his eyes darkened.
About the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Tao Yifan left with the bracelet on his wrist.
As he left, the courtyard where Chen Siyuan had lived was engulfed in flames.
By the time everyone noticed and tried to put out the fire, it was too late.
After the fire was extinguished, what was seen were charred corpses.
......
The next day.
The third prince had just gotten out of bed when he received the news.
Hearing the anxious sounds outside, he glanced at the sleeping woman, then quietly dressed and left.
At this moment, Qiao Zhen, who was lying on the bed, glanced at the sky outside and thought to herself that she should be safe by now.
Soon, she turned over and went back to sleep as if nothing had happened.
As for the fact that she used it for the first time at this time, given the Third Prince's intelligence, he would surely discover that he was also involved in this matter. Thinking of this, she began to count down the few good days she had left.
My heart isn't in it; I don't care how this person treats me. As long as Chen Siyuan is alright, what else is there for me to be reluctant to give up?
A body has to be handed over sooner or later, so why care too much about the process?
The third prince came to the study and heard what had happened.
His usually expressionless face instantly turned red.
He immediately summoned his men and began making arrangements.
However, one person was missing from the staff, which infuriated the Third Prince, who ordered someone to be dragged over.
At this moment, the Third Prince became enraged, and he no longer cared about anything else.
Less than half an hour later, Tao Yifan, completely drunk, was brought in.
When the Third Prince saw Tao Yifan like this, he immediately felt that it was good that the woman died; only with her death could his right-hand men return.
This time, without Qiao Yuchen's assistance, the Seventh Prince was like a man without arms and legs. It was time for him to shine. Tao Yifan was in the same state, and so was he.
He was furious and immediately had a bucket of cold water brought over, which he poured directly over Tao Yifan's head.
Tao Yifan seemed to be really drunk and had no idea where he was.
The moment the cold water was poured over his head, he only shivered. When he saw the Third Prince standing in front of him, he shakily stood up and bowed.
"Your Highness!"
"Go to hell!" The Third Prince was enraged and kicked Tao Yifan, who was knocked to the ground.
The staff around him, witnessing this scene, dared not even breathe.
In the past, Tao Yifan was always the one who came up with ideas, but now that Tao Yifan has become like this because of a woman, they are afraid.
It's definitely not a good thing that such a flawless plan has such a big blunder.
With Tao Yifan looking like this, how could they not be intimidated?
"Get out—" The Third Prince was furious when he saw Tao Yifan's attitude.
The moment those words were spoken, everyone in the room ran away.
The Third Prince never gets angry, but when he does, everyone is filled with fear.
Now the Seventh Prince has absolutely no hope. Among all the princes, the Third Prince is the only one with a real chance.
Who wouldn't be afraid at the thought of the Third Prince's future position?
The crowd ran outside, but dared not leave.
After a long while, a series of clanging and banging sounds came from inside.
They felt a chill run down their spines. Could it be?
Does the Third Prince intend to kill Tao Yifan?
Thinking about this, everyone felt a chill run down their neck, as if they were about to be moved at any moment.
This situation lasted for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, a period of torment for them.
Everyone's hearts were pounding in their throats, unwilling to let it all jump out, yet worried about what might happen inside.
If Tao Yifan really dies, will they still have a chance to leave alive?
As everyone waited, the bloody scene they had anticipated did not occur.
As the door opened, the Third Prince walked out with a gloomy face, and inside was Tao Yifan, who was holding a long sword and supporting himself on the ground.
good!
Very good!
Tao Yifan didn't die, so they didn't have to die with him.
If Tao Yifan comes back to life, they will all be saved.
It can only be said that the Third Prince really can't function without Tao Yifan.
Sure enough, even after just one day, Tao Yifan still reeked of alcohol, but he was still rational.
He stood beside the Third Prince again, offering advice and strategies, and soon the entire situation in the capital was under their control.
However, they discovered that the once elegant Tao Yifan was gone, and now, no matter when they saw him, they could always smell the alcohol on him.
