Not many people knew of the connection between the Eldest Princess and Crown Prince, including the Second Prince

Within his uessedHe was shocked, unhappy, disappointed, hurt, and scaredHe crouched on a chair and unconsciously held a piece of pastry in his hand but did not bring it to his htened and crumbed the pastry a littleUnconsciously, his eyes watched the reat doors as if at anyTee in and capture and imprison him

No matter what, the Second Prince could not understand why his father had suddenly acted against his auntFurthermore, he was -like powerIt was not until this moment that he realized that because the Emperor did not make a move, it did not mean he didn't have the power to do soIt was only that he was too lazy to do so before

When the EedSilently, after a stored co to faceThe E about the relationshi+p between him and the Eldest PrincessPerhaps he would never have an opportunity to hed and placed the pastry on a plate beside himHe smiled bitterly and accepted a hand tohich to wipe his handsGazing at his wangfei Ye Ling'er, he said, ”If there is a probles difficult for you, for the sake of your grand-uncle”

Ye Ling'er bright eyes were covered with a faint layer of worryShe knehy these few days her husband had stayed at home and was ready to be captured at any mo she could do to help him

The only power that the Second Prince could depend on was the Ye familyIn the days after the Eldest Princess had been imprisoned, he didn't dare have any kind of communication, open or secret, with the Ye fa watched by the Palace

He hadn't been preparedOr, ht down, he didn't have the courage to do anything at allHe orried that any unusual rier

For the sake of his life, it was better to be quietImprisonment was, at least, not death

The Second Prince waited in his dou court also waited for the day the Second Prince was done forHowever, the people waited for a long time, and there was still no edict from the Royal PalaceThis reality inevitably uessed at the reason in secret

At this moment, an edict came out of the Palace

Everyone was shocked speechlessWhen the news reached the manor, the Second Prince fell out of his chair in shockBoundless unexpected surprise and endless confusion melded in his brain to become endless shockWhy was it like this?

It ritten very clearly in the edictThe ruler of Nanzhao Kingdom had recently passed awayThe Eo out on behalf of the Emperor to confer the title

Nanzhao? This was a vassal state the Qing arreat deal of poisonous miasma, and the road was very harshIt was thousands of li awayThe trip there and back would need at least four months

Nanzhao had been very peaceful these years and viewed Qing Kingdoh the two countries were close, it was natural that Qing Kingdom should send a person of appropriate rank to offer their condolences and attend the ritual for the passing of the ruler of NanzhaoWhy was it the Crown Prince? This was completely inconsistent with common propriety

Why was it not the Great Prince?

Why was it not Hu the Scholar?

Why was it not Fan Xian?

For the Crown Prince to be sent thousands of li away to Nanzhao at such a sensitive time, what did it mean? Was it a twisted kind of exile?

After the Eldest Princess was iht the second person to be met with misfortune would certainly be the Second PrinceNo one had expected that it would be the Crown Prince

Did the E the Crown Prince?

Although the details of the present situation were not enough to support this deduction, the cunning officials in the court all felt there was soe in the airHowever, they could not understand it

The Second Prince was the most confused personHe felt that his entire body was coldHis father's way of doing things was always unexpected andclouds in the skyIt was impossible to see where they came from

Thus, after the Second Prince recovered from his shock, he played his part even more dutifully

Twenty days later, a deathly pale Crown Prince, under the triple protection of a group of ier Guards, and an Overwatch Council squad, left Jingdou through the south gate and slowly headed toward the distant, seedom
