Chapter 127
Although Li Rui's qualifications are mediocre, he grew up in the palace. After thinking about it for a while, he understood, and a frenzy flashed in his eyes, "How come?"

The more flustered he was, the more calm Wang Zhier seemed to be. She smiled coldly, "How is it impossible? Your Highness the Crown Prince? The secret you thought was perfectly concealed is no longer a secret."

She once again broke his confidence, "Lianchen, the insignificant eldest son, has someone who wants to use His Royal Highness's secret to get rid of him. Think about it, how many people in this palace don't know your secret?"

She uttered the greatest panic in his heart!

It was originally a very tightly guarded secret, but in the eyes of others, it is not worth mentioning.

I don't know how many people have already known his secret, whispering behind his back, waiting to use this secret to threaten him and put him to death!
Li Rui staggered back two steps, stared at her, his eyes lost the composure just now, "Impossible, absolutely impossible..."

He turned his eyes to the hidden guard beside him, and then to the woman hiding behind the tree, with a frenzied expression on his face, "Is it you, did you say it?"

His eyes were cold, as if he was about to be bloodthirsty.

The dark guard was stared at by him, and took a step back, "No, Your Royal Highness, don't be fooled, this prince is just trying to get away."

"Then you, you bastard." The prince suddenly took a few steps and pulled the woman out from behind the tree. The woman had a beautiful face, but her legs and feet were slightly inconvenient. Could it be the Eighth Princess?
The Eighth Princess Yongzhen trembled, her face was pale, "No, Brother Prince, how could it be me? Everyone in the world has betrayed you, so it can't be me!"

Li Rui has been under high pressure for a long time, and has already developed a suspicious character. Being provoked by Wang Zhier consciously, everyone is a betrayer of him.

He brought his ferocious face closer to Yongzhen, gritted his teeth and said, "Who else is there besides you?
As soon as he exerted force on his hand, Yongzhen's wrist broke with a snap, but he didn't let go, and squeezed it tightly.

Yongzhen's head was covered in cold sweat from the pain, knowing that it was a critical moment, she hurriedly said: "Brother Prince, think about it, how could it be me, if I tell the truth, what good will it do me?"

Was it the person who had a close relationship just now? Li Rui regained his senses, let go of her hand, turned his head and walked towards the hidden guard, "It's not her, then, it's you?"

The dark guard took a step back, his eyes showed fear, but he didn't dare to move any more, he knelt down and said, "His Royal Highness, this subordinate is ordered by the queen to protect you, and the life of this subordinate is in your hands , how dare you betray you?"

However, Li Rui had already pulled out a short knife from his boot, and stabbed it straight at the heart of the hidden guard. The hidden guard screamed and died on the ground, but his eyes were wide open.

Wang Zhi'er didn't expect that he would do it as soon as he said it, and saw the dark guard die, and she broke out in a cold sweat.

Li Rui pulled out the bloody knife from the body of the hidden guard, approached Wang Zhi'er step by step, and smiled, "You can't keep either, you can't keep any of them."

Wang Zhi'er stood still, and looked at him with a smile, "His Royal Highness, you don't want me to help you find out, how many people still know your secret?"

She didn't seem to see the knife in his hand, and said slowly: "What's the use of killing the minister? Outside, there are countless people who know your secret."

Li Rui stood still, with a hesitant expression on his face, his eyes were filled with broken ice, "Are you willing to help me?"

Wang Zhi'er smiled and swore, "I was led here by a little maid. Although the little maid wore ordinary clothes, her behavior was different from ordinary maids. I smelled golden ambergris on her body, and , I recognize her appearance, there is a small mole behind her ear, and she is left-handed, I believe that His Highness will be able to find this little maid as long as he searches through these clues..."

Li Rui's face was unpredictable, but he seemed to be attracted by her words, "Golden ambergris is only available in the palace of the queen mother and a few noble concubines. Could it be that..."

Just stop talking, although Wang Zhier pretended to be calm on the surface, her back was wet a lot.

She has never encountered such a crisis before. Dealing with Li Rui is no less than dealing with drug lords in her previous life. If she speaks a little wrong, she will die on the spot.

She could see that Li Rui also possessed martial arts, maybe not as powerful as Li Jiong, but dealing with her was like strangling a chicken.

In this era, she also lived a very aggrieved life. Well, in her previous life, at least her grappling and fighting skills could defeat ten or eight burly men without any problem.

But when she came here, all she met were martial arts masters.

There is simply no room for retaliation.

"His Royal Highness, you don't need to panic. According to what I see, your secret has not been spread too widely. Presumably the people behind the scenes want to use your secret to get the most benefit, but the minister, it is because of the right time. It makes people want to get rid of it easily." Wang Zhier said.

Li Rui threw away the knife in his hand, clapped his palms, his expression eased, his pale face turned red, and said, "Master Wang is not as incompetent as the rumors outside."

Wang Zhi'er sighed: "I have always pretended to be incompetent in order to save my life, but because I have such an empty title on my body, no matter how I pretend, someone will always want to kill me."

Li Rui felt the same about this, and he liked Wang Zhi'er a lot, "It's like the position of the crown prince in this palace. I don't know if I can hold it to the end, and it always provokes countless people to frame me."

Li Rui is an extremely complicated person, and when he becomes cruel, he can kill even the closest person.

But in his current appearance, he was nothing more than a weak-looking son of an aristocratic family.

Wang Zhi'er didn't dare to get closer to him and be his confidant elder sister... The more this kind of person knows his secrets, the more times she will be on the verge of life and death.

Wang Zhi'er said: "His Royal Highness, you must understand that those who want to die must be the ones who don't want to be enshrined in the crown flower meeting tomorrow."

Li Rui believed everything Wang Zhier said, his eyes turned cold, "My aunt, you can stretch your arms really long."

Wang Zhi'er said: "Your Highness only needs to follow this clue and find out which concubine my aunt had a good relationship with when she was in the palace, and then I will know everything."

Li Rui nodded.

The eighth princess Li Yongzhen timidly said: "Brother Prince, do you really believe this prince? It's hard to guarantee that he won't tell us about us."

The eighth princess, Li Yongzhen, is also an interesting one. Her own wrist was pinched and broken, and she didn't learn her lesson. Once she recovered, she wanted to frame someone again.

It seems that Li Yongzhen must have something to do with this incident?
A moment of hesitation flashed in Li Rui's eyes, did he kill this kid from the Wang family?
