Chapter 338 Something has changed in the Ye family!

"Your Highness, the Second Prince, why are you looking at me like that?" Taoist He put the sword in his hand behind his back. After confirming that there was a force behind Li Chengze that could threaten him, he became more and more certain that his choice was not wrong.

He slowly sat down opposite the stone table, as if he didn't take the ninth rank seriously.

It is crucial for a person to have faith in his heart.

At this moment, He Daoren was not afraid of any ninth-rank warrior.

That’s right, He Daoren was constantly thinking in his mind and calculating the gains and losses along the way.

He had his own judgment. When he was young, he had some disputes with Chen Pingping. To put it bluntly, he had also been a spy on many fronts. But he was a Northern Qi man after all, and now that he had seen hope in Li An, nothing could shake him.

He decided to look for the second prince first, because in the current court of Qing Kingdom, only this person was the most worthy of investment.

Li Chengze looked at the slightly aged man in front of him with a complicated expression, and asked softly, "I have a few questions."

"Please say."

"Your Majesty, is he really dead?"

Li Chengze's lips were trembling. He was on the rebel side, but the death of Emperor Qing was the most unlikely thing to happen to him.

This makes the situation seem a little ridiculous.

Perhaps, he never thought for a moment that he could succeed in the rebellion?

He just wanted Emperor Qing to face him and his abilities!

He has the potential to become an emperor!

Although He Daoren didn't understand, he was surprisingly able to understand the state of mind of the person in front of him. Anyone who had a little understanding of Emperor Qing would understand at this moment. "He is dead, on the sea at the foot of Mount Dadong, died at the hands of our imperial master Li An."

It's not a question, it's an affirmative sentence.

Li Chengze was also stunned when he suddenly heard the accurate news. He had never been so happy as tonight, nor had he ever been so sad as tonight. He felt that he was a little confused and a little stupid at this moment.
He sighed and couldn't say anything for a long time.

Taoist He frowned slightly and reminded: "Time is limited."

Li Chengze came back to his senses and looked directly into the other person's eyes. "Did Mr. Li from your country do this with Fan Xian? When did they start their cooperation?"

“There was no cooperation.”

"I understand."

Li Chengze nodded, "Since you are representing Li An, you are also the mastermind. If you are the mastermind, why did you sneak into Kyoto and come to the little prince's mansion?"

The ninth-rank swordsman behind him gently placed his hand on the hilt of the sword, and even his body slowly moved forward a step.

"If you are not so crazy and arrogant that you have forgotten everything, then you must be asking for something."

Shaking his head slowly, Li Chengze waved his hand to stop his men's actions and hostility.

After taking a look at the ninth-rank warrior, He Daoren said firmly and absolutely, "I am not someone he can resist today. If Your Highness does not want to lose this warrior, please do not test me again."

The scene fell silent for a while.

He Daoren suddenly said, "It's not a request, nor is it a cooperation. Because, whether we intervene or not, His Highness will act this way!"

A hint of self-mockery appeared on Li Chengze's lips: "Why are you so sure?"

"Preventing the crown prince from ascending the throne has never been an option!" Taoist He stared into his eyes and said word by word.

"The scum who disobeys moral principles and kills his father and his king is indeed unworthy of sitting on the throne of Qing. This is something no one wants to see, but... I also participated in killing my father and his king!" The whole courtyard was silent. Li Chengze stood up and said lightly: "I need a reason, a reason that will convince everyone!"

Taoist He looked at Li Chengze in surprise. Is this the gap between ordinary people and the prince?

He had doubts in his heart. People always resent the incompetence and ruthlessness of managers, but they don't realize that if they were to sit in this position, their thoughts and actions would be even more foolish.

He took out the seal from his body and placed it on the stone table, and then Taoist He said nothing more.

As expected, the moment the seal was taken out, Li Chengze's eyes lit up, his face was faintly excited, and he murmured, "His Majesty fell ill and passed away in Mount Dadong. Before his death, he issued a will, saying that because the crown prince was immoral, he wanted to pass the throne to me. Is that right?"

In fact, Qing Kingdom had no choice at this time.

Whether from the perspective of status or stability, there is no better choice than the crown prince.

incest?

That’s no big deal for the royal family!

Li Chengqian's mistake was that he did not cover up the matter well, allowing it to be exposed. This became an opportunity for him, Li Chengze!

Thinking about how the Queen Mother had placed his mother under house arrest in the palace, Li Chengze's face was filled with resentment. What about his aunt's methods? In order to deal with Fan Xian, she even ignored her own daughter. The women in the Li family were truly more vicious than each other!
"Your Highness's analysis is correct. It's just that the will was lost on the way back due to the obstruction of the Princess and the Dishonest Crown Prince. Your Highness can find an expert imitator to replace the will!"

Taoist He said calmly. He glanced at the sky and planned to do another thing.

"Don't worry."

Li Chengze chuckled.

He Daoren's hand finally climbed onto the hilt of the sword, "Why? Your Highness wants to keep me here?"

"Don't misunderstand me." Li Chengze's eyes were a little wet, and he didn't know what kind of changes had happened in his heart. "Don't you have anything to say to me, your country's national teacher?"

"I asked the Imperial Master this question."

"He once said that it was not necessary. With this seal, His Highness will naturally know what to do."

"Haha, it's a pity that Li An won't help me. Otherwise, there would be no need for the Crown Prince and Fan Xian." Li Chengze smiled bitterly. "Although I know that this is a trap set by Northern Qi against Qing, I have no choice but to jump into it! It's really a good plan!"

"I want to enter the palace. I wonder if Your Highness can arrange it for me?" He Daoren also stood up slowly, his face calm, as if it was just a trivial request, "I want to see the eldest princess."

Li Chengze shook his head slowly.

"Your people can't even enter the palace now?"

He Daoren looked displeased. This was Li Ang's order, and he had to complete it no matter what.

"Not to mention that I can no longer go to the palace as I wish. Without the old lady's permission, even the prince can't go." Li Chengze lowered his head and was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "Now that the seal is in my hands, do you think I will still let you go to tell the princess?"

Hearing this, a hint of bitterness appeared on Master He's calm face.

It seems that I am still off track?
In the end, we still have to resort to force. If this is the case, it will cause a lot of trouble and it will be difficult to act afterwards.
"You don't have to do this, sir. I don't want to force you to stay! If you are willing to let me pass on the things you want to give to my aunt, or if you want to leave the city now, I won't stop you!"

He Daoren is thinking.

Not only is Kyoto under strict blockade right now, I think the Imperial Palace is even more so.

If I want to hand the things over to the princess smoothly, it is impossible without the help of the second prince. Do I just want to hand over this letter to the second prince?
His heart moved and he understood the arrangement of the imperial teacher!
Perhaps, this letter was prepared for the second prince from the beginning!

He Daoren was shocked and took out the letter he had hidden in his arms without hesitation and handed it to the second prince.

Li Chengze did not hesitate and opened it in front of He Daoren. He saw only a few big words written on the letter:

"Something has changed in the Ye family!"
