Surprise! The boss of the last days, reborn before the engagement

At the same time, in the study of Prince Wen's mansion, Prince Wen was sitting in front of the desk, stroking an ancient jade pendant in his hand, with deep eyes, as if he was thinking about something important.

Next to him are rows of neatly arranged bookshelves filled with all kinds of ancient books, demonstrating the owner's profound knowledge and elegant taste.

At this time, the door of the study was gently pushed open, and the butler Li Fu walked in with steady steps, with a solemn yet excited expression on his face.

"My lord, a shocking piece of news came from the Prince's Mansion today." There was a hint of caution in his words, as if he was afraid of disturbing the tranquility in the study.

Upon hearing this, King Wen raised his eyebrows slightly, put down the jade pendant in his hand, and turned his gaze to Li Fu.

"Oh? What news?" His tone revealed a bit of curiosity and anticipation.

"My lord, the prince...died suddenly for no apparent reason." Li Fu's voice trembled slightly, as if he found this sudden news hard to believe.

He paused for a moment and continued, "Moreover, except for the study, all other places in the Prince's Mansion have been emptied. The entire mansion looks empty, as if it had lost its former prosperity and vitality overnight."

After hearing this, King Wen showed a meaningful smile on his face. "Oh? Are you serious? Hahaha, this is really good news!"

There was a hint of gloating in his words, as if the prince's death was something to be celebrated for him.

"The prince died before I could do anything. The world is so unpredictable!"

However, Li Fu did not relax because of King Wen's laughter, he continued: "But, my master, don't be too happy.

News just came out from the palace that the prince did not die suddenly without any reason, but because he formed cliques for personal gain, accepted bribes, and sold official positions and titles, which were extremely serious crimes. The emperor had ordered the abolition of his title of prince and demoted him to a commoner.

Moreover, the emperor gave him a thin coffin and had him buried hastily. All the people in the prince's mansion were also confiscated into the official slave camp as a punishment.

When King Wen heard this, the smile on his face gradually faded, replaced by a look of deep thought.

"It seems that my father is really angry this time." He murmured to himself, and his tone showed both awe for the emperor and sympathy and regret for the prince.

However, he quickly hid this emotion and replaced it with a more determined look. "That's good. This way, the position of Crown Prince will be vacant."

Seeing that King Wen's mood had stabilized, Li Fu took the opportunity to say, "Master, now that the position of Crown Prince is vacant, it is a good time for you to make great plans! You must work harder and strive to gain the emperor's recognition and appreciation as soon as possible."

King Wen nodded, his eyes gleaming with confidence. "Yes, opportunities always come to those who are prepared. However, we can't take it lightly.

After all, there are so many princes eyeing this position! There are many talented and capable people among them."

Upon hearing this, Li Fu quickly agreed, "Master is right. However, Prince Xuan, you don't have to worry too much.

His legs were damaged by poison from the deposed queen, this is absolutely true. Since ancient times, no emperor with a disability could have stayed on the throne for a long time.

Therefore, it is almost impossible for him to ascend the throne."
