"Yu'er, I've just said that you and I are now tied to the same rope. If anyone finds out that I was responsible for this, you won't be able to escape responsibility either. Liu Luolan will definitely die this time. Given how much Leng Yu dotes on her, he will kill both you and me."
Hearing this, Yu'er took a few steps back dejectedly. He didn't want to do this. This was not what he wanted.
But his mother's words kept echoing in his mind.
Yes, there is no turning back for him. He is not free from what his mother did.
He suddenly threw back his head and laughed.
"Hahaha... Mother, when you asked me to guard the imperial mausoleum, I was afraid of the loneliness there and didn't want to go, but you said it was a period of mourning, so I agreed. Now I'm used to staying in the imperial mausoleum, and you want me to seize the throne. I don't want to do this, but you force me. I've been led by you my whole life. When will you let me truly live again?"
"Yu'er, when you ascend the throne, you can live the way you want. Mother does this for you. If you don't act now, Leng Yu will not let you go when you grow up. You must sit on this throne..."
"I don't want to..."
"You don't have a choice."
A terrifying look suddenly appeared in Concubine Li's eyes, which made Yu'er feel very unfamiliar.
He stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do.
Concubine Li waved her hand at him directly.
"Go back. Three days from now, you will ascend the throne..."
This sentence made Yu'er extremely worried.
He stared at her blankly.
"What on earth do you want to do? You killed the Queen, isn't that enough?"
"Of course it's not enough. In three days, not only will the Crown Prince die, but Leng Yu will also die. All those who stand in our way will also die..."
Yu Er stared at her with horror, "You are really crazy, you are not my mother, my mother is not that kind of person, I will go and tell the emperor now, right now..."
After she finished speaking, she was about to turn around and walk out, when Concubine Li suddenly shouted,
"Come, take the young prince back to the palace and keep an eye on him..."
As soon as she finished speaking, two guards dressed in eunuch clothes appeared behind him. He glanced at the two men and turned back to ask:
"You want to put me under house arrest?"
"House arrest? No, I want you to be reborn. In three days, you can wear the dragon robe and sit on the throne..."
"No……"
Yu Er tried to resist, but the two people behind him clamped his arms. Concubine Li then ordered the two people:
"Send him back. If he dares to act rashly, kill him."
These words frightened Yu'er.
At this moment, his mother's familiar face became hideous and terrifying in his eyes.
He shook his head vigorously, trying to break free, but one of them pressed his acupuncture points...
Looking at the unconscious Yu'er, Concubine Li said coldly:
"Give orders that the young prince has suddenly fallen seriously ill and needs to rest. No one is allowed to see him."
"yes."
After the two men responded, they dragged him out of Hibiscus Palace.
Ah Xing took two steps forward with a serious expression.
"My Lady Consort, Lord Nie is ready and waiting for your order to proceed."
"Alright, Leng Yu is on the verge of mental collapse. Have them move towards the capital. Tomorrow morning, they should enter the city in disguise and move around the palace. Don't alert the troops stationed outside the city. Wait until the Queen passes away and chaos breaks out in the palace before they can take action."
"Yes, I'll go give the order now."
"Go! Our good days are coming soon."
Ah Xing nodded and turned to leave.
Looking at Ah Xing's hurriedly leaving back, Concubine Li showed a smug and sinister smile on her face.
…
The next morning
Fengyi Palace
Ayu came hurriedly to report,
"Your Majesty, as you expected, those people have moved."
Leng Yu's face turned ashen in an instant.
He glanced at Luo Lan and snorted coldly.
"It seems that I underestimated them. Are you all ready?"
"I am ready according to your will."
"Well, obey my orders at any time. Go down!"
"yes."
Leaving these words behind, Ayu turned and left. Luo Lan looked at Leng Yu.
"Husband, it's your turn to take action."
Leng Yu nodded solemnly, then called out to the people outside in a hoarse voice:
"Someone come..."
Ah Cai ran in quickly.
"emperor……"
"Go and ask the Crown Prince and the young prince to come. I have something to say."
"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince has been kneeling outside. The young prince is ill..."
"It's really time for someone to get sick. Even if they can carry him here, they can still help him."
"yes."
After receiving the order, Ah Cai quickly retreated. Leng Yu looked at Luo Lan in surprise.
"Why is Yu'er sick at this time? How will this benefit what they want to do?"
Luo Lan frowned and shook his head.
"I can't figure out why Concubine Li has become like this. I think you should send someone to the imperial mausoleum to investigate thoroughly."
Leng Yu met her gaze and asked suspiciously,
"You doubt it?"
Luo Lan nodded and then shook his head.
"I don't know either. I always feel that there's something wrong with Concubine Li. When we went to the imperial mausoleum to burn incense before the New Year, she was still the same as before. Can a person be changed in just half a year?"
"Okay, I'll send someone to check."
As soon as he finished speaking, Acai came in with Lele.
"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince has arrived. The young prince sent someone to announce his arrival, but they replied that he is ill in bed and cannot leave the house."
