Getting Rich from Legend of Zhen Huan

Chapter 359 End of the Chapter

Yixiu smiled and did not deny it, "It's not as deliberate as my second brother thinks. I just went with the flow."

The deposed prince remained silent. As he said before, even if Yixiu poked a hole in the sky, it would not be his turn as the deposed prince to fix it. So why should he say anything more to annoy others?

Seeing that they were going to be silent for a long time, Yixiu did not delay any longer, "The matter that Second Brother wanted to investigate has now been revealed."

After hearing this, the deposed crown prince's originally calm face darkened terribly, "Who is it?"

Yi Xiu was not afraid of the deposed crown prince's cold face. "There are only a few people who want to bring down my second brother. It just so happened that because of some old things, I found the mastermind behind it."

The deposed prince didn't want to listen to Yixiu's nagging, so he asked again, "Who is it?"

Yixiu threw out a name, "Long Keduo."

Of course, Longkodo was on the list of deposed princes, but he was deeply puzzled, "But I didn't find any clues about him back then." Yixiu had found the answer to something that even the prince's party at its peak couldn't figure out. Even though he knew that Yixiu couldn't be making a fuss, the deposed prince still couldn't believe it.

Yixiu explained, "It was just a coincidence. My second brother also knows that my mother was kidnapped when she was young, and she was lucky enough to be able to return to her ancestral home by chance. But how many kidnapped people are as lucky as my mother? Over the years, my uncle and I have never given up fighting against kidnapping, and we have never given up searching for the whereabouts of those kidnappers.

How could an ordinary kidnapper dare to kidnap and kill people in the capital without restraint? Of course, there must be someone behind him to back him up. "At this point, Yixiu smiled at the prince, "Second brother, do you think this story sounds familiar?"

How could the deposed crown prince not know that it was he who cleaned up the Suowei incident back then, and he also took this opportunity to interfere in the internal affairs of the Hesheli family.

Yixiu knew how to kill someone and destroy their heart. She continued, "I just think that what Second Brother doesn't know is that Suo Wei is not the instigator of everything. He is just a fool who was manipulated by others and has to take the blame for others."

Thinking of what Yixiu said and the relationship between Suowei and Longkodo, the deposed prince said self-deprecatingly, "Of course I can't find out Longkodo's background. After all, I personally ordered the end of the incident back then."

Unexpectedly, the boomerang ended up piercing the deposed prince himself.

Yi Xiu added with a smile, "Your Highness the Crown Prince was too impatient back then, and he didn't even notice the loopholes in Lord Suo Wei's words, and naturally he couldn't find any traces of Longkodo's involvement.

Speaking of which, maybe Suowei was too stupid. He never thought about why Longkodo asked him to abduct good-looking boys from all over the place. After all, everyone knew that the late emperor hated the habit of Longyang.

What's even more ridiculous is that when Longkodo took these boys away, Suowei didn't pay attention to where so many people went, and even borrowed the power of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to completely eliminate all traces of these boys. "

What Suo Wei could not have imagined was that after these boys were trained, they were sent to the palace to be castrated. Because they were fair-skinned, spoke well, and acted properly, they were sent to the Yuqing Palace to serve by the biased Kangxi.

Even if the servants in Yuqing Palace were replaced frequently, Longkodo had no shortage of disposable eunuchs.

After the deposed crown prince figured it out, he couldn't help but burst into laughter. As he was laughing, he was interrupted by a cough. He coughed for a long time before he recovered. "In the end, it was all my own fault."

This time, it was Yixiu who was indifferent. "The crown prince of a country tolerated the people under him for his own selfish desires and caused countless families to be broken up. Shouldn't His Royal Highness be punished?"

The deposed prince wanted to retort, is he the only one like this? The eldest, the third, the fourth prince, which one is not like this? But looking at Yixiu's eyes, the deposed prince suddenly didn't want to say anything. He made excuses for what he didn't want to say.

Yixiu continued, "It's not surprising that His Royal Highness is like this. Even the late Emperor was not fair, let alone the Crown Prince."

To be honest, during his reign, Kangxi had protected many more people than the crown prince. If all the members of the Tong family were killed, there might be innocent people killed, but if they were killed one by one, there would definitely be some who slipped through the net. But this did not prevent Tong Banchao from standing firm in the court!

But what's the point of saying all this? How could the deposed prince raised by Kangxi look down and see the untouchables struggling to survive?

Yixiu felt bored. "Longkodo is arrogant and domineering. He wants to compete with the emperor for power by relying on his merits as a follower of the emperor. This is a way to death. He will be liquidated naturally without doing anything. As for the Sixth Princess, I will do my best. The emperor will not let the rest of the descendants of Zhengjiazhuang leave the mansion. They can only wait for the next new emperor, Prince Enli's lineage."

The deposed prince knew that this was the best outcome and he was not dissatisfied. He coughed twice and unfolded the handkerchief that covered his mouth. There was a bright red streak on the handkerchief, and said, "Tell the fourth brother not to worry about me." A dying person is indeed not worth the emperor's worry.

Yixiu and the deposed crown prince tacitly put aside the unpleasantness that had just occurred and exchanged a few polite words with masks. Then Yixiu left the small courtyard and went to see the Sixth Princess.

The courtyard returned to its former tranquility, with only the sound of wind blowing bamboo leaves lingering in the courtyard. The deposed prince had nothing to linger on. He lost his mother at birth and once longed for maternal love, but it was also consumed by the harem's calculations. He thought he still had unique fatherly love, but the imperial power was supreme. Kangxi used reality to slap the deposed prince hard. Although he was the most beloved child of the emperor, he could not compare to the temptation of power.

During his years of confinement, the deposed prince wondered many times why the father and son had come to such a point of killing each other. But there was no answer. Should it be said that he had been competing with the eldest son since childhood, or that he had made a big mistake when he and the third son visited their sick father?

Yixiu could see the layout of Zhengjiazhuang, so how could the deposed prince not see it? It was precisely because he could see it that he felt even more complicated. He thought that he would be imprisoned in Xian'an Palace for life, and his life and death would be decided when the new emperor ascended the throne. However, the existence of Zhengjiazhuang showed that Kangxi was really fully prepared for the deposed prince.

But what's the use of this? The fact that he was born to be a nemesis of his mother was what the deposed prince cared about the most, but Kangxi used this as a knife to stab the deposed prince in the heart. The deposed prince couldn't understand Kangxi's thoughts, and didn't want to guess anymore. It was a blessing from heaven that he had come to this point in his life, so let it be!

The deposed prince looked up at the sky. The bamboo forest was so long that it blocked out the sky. Only under the eaves could he see half of the sky. Even though he behaved properly, the deposed prince's spirit was already broken and he was just waiting for a chance to be freed.
