Lucky First Daughter: After crossing, she will fly the whole family with her mouth

Chapter 223 Wind and Rain
The third prince, Zhao Jin'an, and his mother and concubine are Concubine Sun De.

In the harem, Concubine Sun De can be regarded as a low-key and inconspicuous existence, and the third prince and second princess she gave birth to are also very low-key.

Before the eldest prince and the second prince had accidents, few officials in the court paid attention to the third prince.

After all, the eldest prince was born to a noble concubine, and both mother and son are very favored.

Although the second prince was not the eldest son of the emperor, he was born to the empress, and he was the eldest son.

In the eyes of everyone, the emperor will only choose from these two for the crown prince.The third prince is inferior to the eldest prince and the second prince no matter in which aspect.

It was such an inconspicuous third prince, no one thought that he would dare to have an affair with a concubine in the harem without making a sound.

It is said that the third prince entered the palace to see his mother and concubine, and after leaving Concubine De's residence, he secretly ran to the palace of the concubine surnamed Zheng.

When a guard was on patrol, he noticed a black shadow running towards the direction where the concubine lived.Worried that an assassin had entered the palace, the patrolling guards naturally chased after him. Who knew that the assassin hadn't been found, but they ran into the third prince having an affair with the concubine.

Things got serious, and many people saw the third prince coming out of the palace of the concubine surnamed Zheng with disheveled clothes.

When the emperor heard the news, he was naturally furious.

Immediately ordered someone to give poisoned wine to the concubine and the third prince.

After hearing the news, Concubine Sun De ran to the emperor and begged, saying that the third prince must have been framed by someone.

After listening to Concubine De's words, the emperor remembered that the guard's report broke the matter in order to track down a person in black.

Although the emperor became suspicious, many people in the palace saw the third prince coming out of the concubine's bedroom in disheveled clothes. Regardless of the truth of the matter, he was ashamed.

He wished he could kill the third prince, but he thought that the eldest prince was imprisoned, and the second prince died again. The emperor finally turned his back on Concubine De's pleadings.

The third prince was not bestowed with death, but demoted to a commoner and assigned to Ninggu Pagoda.

Originally, this kind of scandal was blocked by the higher authorities, but for some reason, it spread rapidly.

Because this matter was related to Tianjia, those who heard the news, although they were afraid in their hearts, couldn't help risking their heads and quietly discussing it in private.

Ordinary people are interested in whether the third prince has an affair with the emperor's concubine, and even curious about how beautiful that concubine is, who can seduce the third prince so fascinated that he would not hesitate to commit such incest.

When the officials in the court heard this, some were happy and some were worried.

Officials who originally supported the factions of the First Prince and the Second Prince hadn't recovered from the shock of those two princes' accidents, and were hesitant to support the Third Prince instead.

Unexpectedly, before they made up their minds, such a big incident happened to this insignificant Third Prince.

The current emperor has five adult princes, the eldest prince was imprisoned, the second prince died, and now the third prince has been assigned, and now only the fourth and fifth princes are left.

After such a big incident happened, the entire capital felt a lot quieter all of a sudden, and no one dared to touch the Emperor's bad luck at such a time.

But in the court, many officials became eager to move.

This is privately thinking about which prince's team to stand on. The two princes, no matter which one they choose, have a [-]% chance of success.

Just when this undercurrent was surging, news came out that the emperor had fallen ill.

The emperor is in poor health and cannot go to court. Some people are worried about the world, but most of them are thinking about how to stand in line so as not to make mistakes.

When Xiao Jinyue heard the news, she smelled a wave of uneasiness that was about to come.

For some reason, she thought of those two men and women who had an affair in the cave of King Jin's Mansion.

It's a pity that after so many days, she still has no clue.

Xiao Jinyue even went back to Xiao's mansion, looking for her mother, Mrs. Xue, and asking her if she knew of any lady in Beijing whose name had the same pronunciation as Se.

It's a pity that Mrs. Xue has lived in the border for a long time, so she doesn't know much about the lady in Kyoto.

Lu Chengting noticed that Xiao Jinyue seemed to have something in his mind after he came back from the confession banquet.He didn't take it seriously at first, but he found that she was frowning every day, and she didn't know what she was thinking about.

He couldn't help but ask her.

Xiao Jinyue thought for a while, she might not be able to find any clues by herself.

Besides, those two people mentioned Lu Chengting, so Xiao Jinyue simply told him what happened in the cave that day.

Lu Chengting frowned when he heard this, but Xiao Jinyue knew too few clues, so it might be difficult to investigate.

At this moment, a guard who was out on errands rushed back and immediately went to Shi'an Court to see Lu Chengting.

Lu Chengting asked the servant to call the guards in, but when the guards saw Xiao Jinyue sitting aside, they wanted to report, but hesitated again.

Xiao Jinyue knew at a glance that it was inconvenient to say something in front of her.

She was about to stand up and avoid it, but Lu Chengting glanced at the guard lightly, "Just tell me if you have anything to do, Shi Zifei is not an outsider, so there is no need to avoid it."

Xiao Jinyue glanced at him in surprise, but was quickly attracted by the guard's words.

"Returning to my son, my subordinates just went out to do some errands, and when they passed by a troubled small hall, they overheard someone talking about it, saying that something happened to the Fifth Prince."

When the guard said this, he hesitated and stopped, not because he didn't want to say it, but because he was worried that what he said next was not suitable for the crown prince to listen to.

Lu Chengting didn't expect that what the guards were going to say would involve some kind of small hall, so he realized why the guards hesitated just now.

He also felt embarrassed for a moment, wondering if Xiao Jinyue should continue to listen.

Xiao Jinyue naturally understood what the meaning of Xiaoguanguan was, but she didn't think it was a big deal in her heart. Seeing that the guard didn't say anything, she urged, "What happened to the fifth prince?"

The guard glanced at Lu Chengting and saw that he didn't stop him, so he continued, "I heard someone discussing that the Fifth Prince was fighting for the young lady with the Young Master Zhao of Duke Cheng's Mansion in the small lady's hall. They fell in love with the same young man, fought for each other, and accidentally stabbed the young man to death."

Lu Chengting frowned, "Is this matter related to the Fifth Prince?"

The guard nodded, "It's true. This subordinate quietly went into the small hall to have a look. The Fifth Prince and Young Master Zhao were both beaten to a bruise. The little eunuch quietly dragged him back to the Fifth Prince's residence."

Xiao Jinyue also frowned when she heard that, if she remembered correctly, the fifth prince is also married, and I heard that he has a good relationship with the fifth prince and concubine.

Could it be that this fifth prince is still a man who takes all men and women?

Lu Chengting said slowly, "I'm afraid this matter is not simple, and there is probably a push behind it."

Xiao Jinyue also realized that Duke Cheng's mansion is Concubine Zhao's natal family, Young Master Zhao is Concubine Zhao's nephew, and the people behind it are afraid that they want to drag Duke Cheng's mansion into trouble and make the emperor despise the eldest prince's natal family .
