The waste prince is so fierce

After Li Fu drank the medicine, he felt a warm current flowing through his body, and his original fatigue was swept away.

He understood that this medicine was not ordinary and must contain some rare medicinal materials.

This made him even more confused about his father's intentions.

But at the same time, I also feel a sense of anticipation.

Not long after, a eunuch came and summoned him, saying that Emperor Kangdi had summoned him.

Li Fu straightened his clothes and followed the eunuch to Emperor Kang's bedroom.

"My son, I will meet my father."

Li Fu knelt down and saluted.

"Get up."

There was no emotion in Kangdi's voice.

Li Fu stood up and looked up, only to see Kangdi looking at him expressionlessly.

He was startled and wondered why his father had summoned him.

"Li Fu, I know you have been traveling abroad and have gained a lot of knowledge."

Emperor Kang spoke slowly, "Now I have an important matter for you to do."

"Father, please tell me. I will do my best."

Li Fu bowed and said.

"I want you to conduct a thorough investigation of the Three Princes' Palace and collect all evidence related to their crimes."

Emperor Kang's tone was cold and resolute. "Once I find solid evidence, I will personally order the execution of his entire family!"

Li Fu was shocked. He didn't expect his father to be so decisive.

He knew that the Third Prince's Palace had enormous power in the court, and if this matter was not handled properly, it would likely cause chaos in the court.

But he also understood that since his father had made a decision, he would never change it easily.

"Yes, Father."

Li Fu took a deep breath and bowed his head to accept the order, "I will do my best to live up to your expectations."

After saying this, he turned around and left the bedroom.

After returning to his residence, Li Fu immediately began to make preparations.

He knew that this matter was of great importance and he had to proceed with caution.

So he first sent people to secretly contact some influential officials in the court, trying to obtain information about the Three Princes' Palace from them.

At the same time, he also began to form a team of elite spies to sneak into the Three Princes' Palace for an in-depth investigation, hoping to find conclusive evidence.

However, things did not go as smoothly as expected.

The power of the Three Princes' Palace is huge, and the security inside the palace is tight, so it is not easy to sneak in.

Moreover, the people in the Three Princes' Palace were not pushovers. They quickly noticed Li Fu's actions and began to take countermeasures.

"Has the investigation into the Three Princes' Palace not made any progress yet?"

Li Fu said with a grim expression to the people who had just returned from investigation.

"Your Highness, the area around the Third Prince's Palace is too heavily guarded. We really can't get in!"

Li Fu frowned after hearing this. He originally thought that with his own abilities and means, he could quickly find out the details of the Third Prince's Palace. He did not expect that the other party's defenses were so tight that even the spies he carefully trained were helpless.

This made him start to re-evaluate the difficulty of this mission.

"Have you tried any other methods?"

Li Fu asked after thinking for a moment.

“We have tried to approach the Three Kings Palace disguised as vendors, tourists, etc., but have been unsuccessful.”

The spy replied somewhat helplessly, "The people in the Three Princes' Palace seem to know everything about our actions. No matter how we change our strategies, we cannot escape their surveillance."

Li Fu couldn't help feeling frustrated when he heard this.

He knew that this mission was a huge challenge for him, but also an opportunity.

If he can successfully expose the crimes of the Three Princes' Palace, then his status and reputation in the court will surely rise.

However, the reality was much more difficult than he had imagined.

“We can’t just give up on this.”

Li Fu took a deep breath, and a determined light flashed in his eyes. "Continue to intensify the investigation, and at the same time, pay attention to confidentiality to avoid alerting the enemy."

"Yes!"

The spies responded in unison.

In the following days, Li Fu and his team kept changing strategies, trying to break through the defenses of the Three Princes' Palace.

Sometimes they disguised themselves as vendors and mixed into the crowd around the palace to collect intelligence; sometimes they bribed servants in the palace to obtain inside information; they even tried to use the palace's communication channels to eavesdrop.

However, no matter how hard they tried, they could never get to the core secrets of the Three Princes' Palace.

Just when Li Fu felt helpless, an unexpected opportunity presented itself to him.

Late one night, when he was alone in his study thinking about countermeasures, he suddenly heard a slight noise coming from outside the window.

He opened the window vigilantly to check the situation, only to find a man in black standing outside the window waving at him.

Li Fu was startled, but quickly calmed down and motioned the man in black to come into the house.

After entering the house, the man in black quickly closed the doors and windows and revealed his identity - he turned out to be a guard in the Third Prince's Palace who chose to rebel because he was dissatisfied with the palace's actions.

He provided Li Fu with important intelligence about the Three Princes' Palace and asked for his protection.

Li Fu was overjoyed after hearing this and quickly kept the information. He then said to the man in black, "Well done! I'll give you a great credit for this!"

In another corner of the capital, Li Quan, also known as King Jing, was leisurely sipping tea in his own garden.

Li Quan was another son of Emperor Kang. Although he and Li Fu were both members of the royal family, they had completely different personalities.

Li Quan has always been indifferent to fame and fortune, and has not been very interested in the political struggles of the court. He prefers poetry, calligraphy and painting, and interacting with literati and scholars.

On this day, Li Quan was invited to a poetry meeting where all the literati in the capital gathered together to recite poems and compose couplets, having a great time.

Li Quan changed into casual clothes and slowly headed to the poetry meeting venue with a few followers.

On the way, you can see the prosperity of the capital city.

The hawkers' cries, the noise of pedestrians, and the sound of stringed instruments not far away formed a vivid picture of the market. Li Quan was in a good mood and was about to speed up his pace, but was suddenly blocked by a group of people.

"Where are you going, kid?"

The leader looked Li Quan up and down, with a sly look in his eyes.

"Who are you? Why are you stopping me?"

Li Quan frowned slightly, but his tone remained calm.

"Hey, my brothers and I are a little short of money recently, so we want to borrow some money from His Royal Highness Prince Jing."

As the man spoke, he extended his hand to Li Quan.

Li Quan smiled slightly. He could see through this little trick clearly.

He was about to refuse when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a group of soldiers walking towards him not far away.

"You want money?"

Li Quan pretended to be surprised and asked, "What a coincidence! I am going to attend a poetry meeting and I have a lot of silver with me. But it is not so easy to get this silver."

"Oh? You have another condition?" The man seemed interested.

"It's very simple."

Li Quan pointed at the soldiers not far away and said, "As long as you can escape from them, these silver coins will be yours."

When the man saw that the soldiers were close at hand, his face changed immediately.

He glared at Li Quan fiercely and hurried away with his men.
