After I died, the scumbag prince cried down the city wall

Chapter 309: The Lips and Teeth Are in the Same Condition

"We still have a lot of time to spare."

"Understood!"

The other party bowed his head respectfully, with obvious respect and obedience in his voice.

"Continue to track and monitor his movements."

As he finished speaking, a complex emotion flashed in his eyes, as if he was thinking about something more profound.

Before returning to the dormitory, he paused at the door for a moment, as if hesitating about something.

Finally, he gently opened the door and stepped into the room.

What came into view was Cui Rong lying on the bed, with traces of tears still lingering on her face. When she saw the person entering the room, she immediately turned her head away and no longer looked in this direction. There was an indescribable feeling of depression in the air - was it the pain she endured when changing the medication that made her emotions out of control?

Or is it that the unresolved knot still exists?

He walked over to the edge of the bed and sat down, gently running his fingertips through her long, smooth, delicate hair: "My dear, I just hope you can recover soon..."

Although every word he said was full of love and care, there was a hint of coldness hidden deep in his tone, "When the pain is gone, I will take you to watch a wonderful show."

Hearing this, the woman who had her back to him slowly turned around and looked over here, her cheeks flushed and her eyes filled with tears as she asked in confusion, "What kind of performance will it be?"

Although his voice was a little hoarse, his curiosity could not be concealed.

He gently wiped away the last drop of crystal liquid in the corner of his eye, and then whispered: "Then I will let you see a different world."

He just waited there silently until he saw her gradually fall into a dreamlike deep sleep and then he got up and left.

As soon as I stepped into the study, I found Fu Xian was already waiting there.

"A secret letter has been sent from Cao Wang."

He quickly tore open the thin piece of paper in his hand, glanced at it quickly, and then lit it without hesitation, turning it into ashes.

"Go to the north in person, deliver this box to the target, and tell him to carry out our plan step by step."

As he spoke, he pointed to the small wooden box on the table that looked very ordinary but was full of unknown secrets. Then the person in front of him carefully took it and nodded in agreement: "Yes, sir!"

However, before leaving, he couldn't help but reveal some concerns and worries, "But the people in Prince Xuan's Mansion seem to be quite interested in our actions here, what if..."

He smiled disapprovingly and said, "Don't be too nervous. Right now, the prince is focused on questioning whether there is some kind of connection between me and Beiliang. Unless this aspect is involved, it shouldn't attract too much attention from the other party."

"Ok!"

After getting a response, he immediately said goodbye and left.

Inside Prince Xuan’s palace.

"Could it be that Song Yanyi sent someone to deliver this jade pendant to the Crown Prince of Beiliang?"

Holding a small object that was completely green, with a smooth and translucent texture like that of fine jade, I looked at it for a long time but could not detect any mystery from it.

Uncle Song, who was both his trusted advisor and his elder brother, replied solemnly, "You know, sir, that he is not a rash person. I believe that there must be a special purpose for sending this gift, not to mention that it involves an important person in that place..."

At this point, he couldn't help but pause and continued, "Although we can't jump to the conclusion that there must be a secret deal between the two, we should at least be vigilant enough and take necessary precautions."

After hearing this, his face suddenly became extremely ugly: "Yesterday this guy actually sent me a gift to show his sincerity and obedience! I originally thought that he was truly repentant, but I didn't expect that he was a villain who appeared loyal but actually had ulterior motives!"

Then he shouted to the outside, "Quickly clear out all the gifts sent from there!"

Then, his tone softened a little, "Tomorrow morning, I want to return this item in person and take the opportunity to test their reactions. Maybe I can use this opportunity to obtain some valuable intelligence."

Then, he smiled contemptuously, his mouth corners raised: "A small Northern Liang crown prince is nothing at all, and in my heart it is even less worth mentioning. Northern Liang is just a borderland, how high can the status of a crown prince there be? Besides, now that Song Yanyi has lost power and is doing nothing at home, accompanying a woman all day long, he has completely lost his former edge and courage, and is not worth being afraid of at all."

Seeing this, Second Uncle Song immediately bowed and flattered, "Just as the prince said, my brother has now retired to the second line, and he is indeed insignificant in front of the prince. The emperor has the intention to appoint the prince to inherit the throne. When the power is transferred in the future, what can he do to the prince? Prince, you are destined to be the prince, who can fight against it?"

After hearing this, a smug smile suddenly appeared on King Xuan's face. He stood up and walked back and forth in the room with his head held high. His tone was full of arrogance and domineering: "In the current situation in the world, no one can stop me from obtaining the supreme imperial power! Not only is the position of crown prince within my grasp, even the throne of emperor is just around the corner!"

His voice was sonorous and powerful, echoing in the empty hall, demonstrating his inner ambition.

King Xuan turned around and faced Second Uncle Song, his eyes flashing with a cold and cruel light: "When that day finally comes, it will be the day when Song Yanyi will be completely destroyed! I will personally wipe him and all his supporters out of this world, leaving them no chance of turning over! And you, the Song family, can choose to stand on the winning side..."

"Although His Majesty is still healthy, so Your Highness cannot take any action for the time being; however, His Majesty's health is deteriorating, and I am afraid that he will have to choose a successor within the next year. By then, it will be easy to deal with the Song family."

Uncle Song added, with a complicated look in his eyes.

Hidden behind the power struggle is the cruel reality of countless families being torn apart and personal destinies being ruthlessly rewritten.

Now the old emperor is still in charge of the government, so King Xuan dare not act rashly; but if the situation changes...

Those old ministers who have long lost their support and are now in a precarious situation will find it difficult to escape the truth that no eggs can remain intact when the nest is overturned.

After listening to this analysis, King Xuan looked at Uncle Song, who was very respectful and loyal, with satisfaction, and nodded in appreciation, "Compared with your brother, your choice is more wise. He who knows the current situation is a hero, this is the attitude that the king appreciates. After all, in this world where the strong prey on the weak, only the strong can dominate all the rules."

Upon hearing this, Second Uncle Song bowed his head and saluted to express his humility and gratitude. "Thank you for your praise, Your Highness. Our Song family has always respected family rules and ethics, and we know that following a leader who truly possesses the aura of an emperor is the right path. Moreover, it is what everyone wants for a person as talented as Your Highness to ascend the throne! What Big Brother did back then was a foolish and blind mistake."
