Chapter 1871: Prince Ping
After the Gong Prince’s angry shout, Lin Yuelan immediately asked the imperial grandson,” Your Highness, what do you think?”
At this moment, Yuwen Xuhong did not dare to make a sound again, not allowing her to send the assassin to the Emperor. He could only say angrily,” Indeed, he should be sent to Imperial Grandfather for interrogation!”
The man gritted his teeth and looked furious. It was unknown whether it was because of Lin Yuelan’s aggressiveness or the failure of his plan.
After his anger subsided, the uneasiness and fear in his heart continued to grow. He had a bad feeling.
Lin Yuelan nodded and said,” In that case, I would like to ask Your Highness to send this assassin to His Majesty.”
The Crown Prince replied,” Yes, I’ll get someone to prepare it immediately!”
Lin Yuelan nodded and instructed,” Your Highness, you must be careful!”
This assassin had attempted suicide twice and failed to kill him once. Thus, the best opportunity to strike was during the escort.
The Crown Prince said very seriously,” Yes, I will follow the Princess ‘instructions. I will definitely be careful!”
At this moment, Jiang Zhennan said,” Yue ‘er, do you want me to personally send him to the palace?”
This assassin was too crucial and important. Furthermore, he had countless methods to kill or be killed. If Lin Yuelan were not here, they would not have been able to defend against him.
Lin Yuelan thought for a while and said,” Okay, let’s go together then! At the same time, I want to explain my matter to the old emperor clearly!”
Originally, she wanted to go to Lin Yue Pavilion to investigate the Crown Princess Consort’s poisoning before entering the palace.
However, in order to silence them, the person behind the scenes used vicious and despicable methods, and their methods were even more difficult to guard against.
For the sake of her innocence, she had to escort him to the palace and find out the truth!
As for the Crown Princess Consort poisoning case, as long as the Crown Princess Consort did not die, her innocence would be cleared sooner or later.
As for the Crown Princess Consort, Lin Yuelan rolled her eyes. She moved her hand was wearing a jade green bracelet, and a wisp of green smoke drifted away from the sky.
Lin Yuelan said to Little Green,” Little Green, I’ll leave the crown prince consort to you!”
The poisoning of the Crown Princess Consort and the betrayal of the five Hu brothers seemed to be unrelated, but she knew very well that this behind-the-scenes scheme was probably to defeat her in one fell swoop.
The five Hu brothers had suddenly turned against her, and the assassin had been caught. They had already exposed the person behind the scenes. The person behind the scenes would probably be desperate and do something even more absurd to frame her.
Little Green nodded seriously.” Yes, Sister, don’t worry. Little Green will definitely protect that crown princess consort well and let her wait for you to come back unscathed before finding out the truth!”
After instructing Little Green, Lin Yuelan immediately accepted the mission of escorting the assassin.
This case was no longer something that anyone could handle except for the Emperor.
In order to prevent any accidents from happening, the Crown Prince had already ordered people to prepare for protection so that the witness could be safely sent into the palace.
The surrounding commoners had already been dispersed by the soldiers.
After all, there would be many accidents if there were too many people!
For example, the assassin had snuck into these ordinary people. If Jiang Zhennan had not been quick enough to catch the poisonous needle and pull the person out, they might have encountered even more trouble.
Just as the preparations were complete and the Crown Prince and the others were about to leave, the eldest grandson stood up and said to the Crown Prince,” Imperial Uncle, I’m not feeling well. I’ll return to the residence first!”
The crown prince immediately asked with concern,” Hong ‘er, where are you feeling unwell? I’ll immediately get someone to call the imperial physician!”
The eldest grandson immediately waved his hand and refused.” No need, Imperial Uncle. It is more important for you to send the witness to the palace first. After Hong ‘er returns to the residence, I will go and call the imperial physician!”
The Crown Prince thought about it and said,” Alright then. Since you’re not feeling well, have a good rest! This assassin, Princess Guguo and I will send him safely to Imperial Father!”
In reality, the last sentence seemed to be meant to provoke Yuwen Xuhong.
However, Yuwen Xuhong couldn’t lose his composure. He smiled stiffly and said,” Then I’ll have to trouble Imperial Uncle and Princess.”
After saying that, he left. However, before he left, he exchanged a glance with Prince Ping.
Their eyes revealed a meaning that only they understood.
Prince Ping rolled his eyes and suddenly shouted, “Aiyo!”
He held his waist with one hand, and his expression was one of pain and savagery. He kept shouting,” Ouch, my waist, it really hurts!”
