Chap 119
Mu TianXiao was taken away by the imperial guards. The Emperor dispersed the crowd. How to
punish the 6th Prince… will have to wait until they return to the imperial palace.

At this time, the man who was Concubine Lu’s ‘old friend’ also started to talk. The Emperor
discovered that this person was actually drunk and not thinking too straight. In his befuddlement,
he somehow managed to run over here to the hunting ground and enter Concubine Lu’s tent.

After this person became sober, he finally realized what a huge mistake he’s made. However, he
already couldn’t remember anything that he did while he was drunk.

This entire thing sounded completely like an accident that happened due to inebriation. However,
the hunting ground was defended by numerous guards. Normal civilians definitely wouldn’t be
able to burge in here. Plus he was drunk, and also didn’t know the situation within the hunting
grounds. How could he have found the place where Concubine Lu was staying so accurately?
Therefore, someone must have led this man inside and guided him into Concubine Lu’s tent.

To be able to do this kind of thing, that person must have a fairly high status.

The Emperor had already captured the 6th Prince. He steeled his heart and focused the
investigation solely around the 6th Prince.

After a round of effort, he actually did manage to discover that the horse carriage of the 6th
Prince’s wife had left and entered the hunting ground twice.

Because the 6th Prince had been accompanying the carriage each time and the 6th Prince’s wife
was pregnant, the guards didn’t thoroughly examine the inside of the 6th Prince’s carriage. The
Emperor sent someone to verify the whereabouts of the 6th Prince’s wife and discovered that
after Liang-shi entered the hunting ground, she never left. Looks like the carriage had been used
specifically to transport the man.

The 6th Prince actually went so far as to use his pregnant wife as a shield. The Emperor recalled
how Mu TianXiao(6) had cared very little about Liang-shi’s health and deliberately used his
unborn child to curry favor before; the Emperor didn’t find this too surprising anymore.
However, after transporting the man inside, there must have been someone else close to
Concubine Lu who received him.

The Emperor investigated all of the people that entered and exited Concubine Lu’s tent. He
discovered that around this time, only an old momo entered and exited frequently.

The Emperor ordered people to capture this momo and interrogate her. He discovered that this
momo was originally a servant of the 7th Prince’s mother, Concubine Li. Because Concubine
Li(7) and Concubine Lu(8) were similar ages and both had sons, they had a pretty good
relationship. Concubine Lu(8) really liked this momo’s embroidery skills. Therefore, Concubine
Li(7) gifted this old momo to Concubine Lu(8).

It was also this momo, who upon seeing the furious face of the Emperor, immediately started
kowtowing on the ground nonstop and recounting with snot and tears running down her face: the
6th Prince held her weakness in his hands. It was he who ordered her to place a man into
Concubine Lu’s tent while she was sleeping.

Sure enough, it was the 6th Prince again. After some pondering, the Emperor finally woke up to
smell the flowers. Why did the 6th Prince purposely pick this old momo to bring the man into the
tent? It was because this momo not only served Concubine Lu(8), she was also a present from
Concubine Li(7). If he hadn’t known that the 6th Prince was the true culprit behind the scene, at
the end of his investigation into the matter regarding Concubine Lu(8), he would have definitely
found his way to Concubine Li(7). Concubine Li(7) was the birth mother of the 7th Prince!

The Emperor had thought the 6th Prince was trying to kill two birds with one stone. Actually,
that wasn’t all. In this one maneuver, the 6th Prince actually plotted against all of the other
princes!

No wonder the 6th Prince had to take such a dangerous gamble and proceed with everything
even after learning that all of the bloods’ results had passed. Because he was just a single step
away from moving into prime position to inherit the throne. This was really a huge enticement.

If Jing-wang and the 8th Prince were really discovered to have mixed up the royal bloodline, the
7th Prince would have also become implicated because of this. By that time, the 6th Prince
would have been the only candidate left for the Emperor to choose from.

Even though the Emperor was used to seeing all sorts of backhanded tactics, he still felt a chill
going down his back because of Mu TianXiao(6)’s viciousness. Even more so, he never
imagined that the 6th Prince had managed to hide himself so deeply.
Luckily, with the help Jing-wang and his group, the Emperor sensed the 6th Prince’s ambition
ahead of time.

Mixing up the bottles of blood and marking them with symbols was Jing-wangfei’s idea. This
was to force the 6th Prince’s subordinate out of the crowd. Physician Pan was actually followed
by Jing-wang himself. It was also Jing-wang who invited the Emperor over to sit next door to the
6th Prince and listen in.

There was no evidence more convincing than hearing it with your own ears.

If it can be said that the Emperor was still considering Jing-wang before, now that the 6th Prince
has unmasked and exposed his true self, the Emperor also finally made a certain decision.

“Father, are you okay?” Li Yu was a bit worried about the Emperor.

Ever since the Emperor exposed the 6th Prince in front of everyone, he started to seem somewhat
absent-minded.

Grandpa wasn’t happy, what to do?

The Baos gathered together and mumbled for a while. Figuring out a plan, Bao#1 immediately
went to where head manager Luo was and obtained a cup of tea, holding it with both hands.

Head manager Luo hastily went to stop him: “Little heir, you can’t. Careful not to get burned!”

Li Yu shook his head with a smile. The Emperor’s tea was always at the most perfect
temperature, ready to be consumed and not hot at all. Kids should learn to do some stuff
anyways.

Plus, Bao#1 was also extremely willing to do it.

Bao#1, who wanted grandpa to be happy, staggered from side to side while he walked. However,
he carried the cup extremely steadily.

The Emperor smiled as he watched the little tiny guy carry the tea towards him.
He was just about to lean down to accept it when Bao#4 jumped out from behind Bao#1, yelling
‘ah ah’ and blocking Bao#1.

The Emperor: ?

Although the Emperor favored Bao#1 without limit, it didn’t mean that the Emperor didn’t favor
the other Baos as well.

The Emperor was very curious as to what Bao#4 wanted to do.

Bao#4’s little chubby hand lifted the cover of the teacup. He tilted his head and noisily drank
several mouthfuls of the tea. Then, patting his tea filled tummy, he nodded his head towards
Bao#1 with a serious little expression.

After this, Bao#1 continued to walk over, handing the tea that Bao#4 drank from to the Emperor.

This……

For a second, even the Emperor couldn’t figure out what’s going on.

Li Yu was embarrassed. These two little idiots. How can they have the Emperor drink leftover
tea!

Li yu was just about to ask back the tea cup that was slightly covered in Bao#4’s saliva when
head manager Luo suddenly knelt down and said extremely joyously: “Your majesty, the little
heir and others show such filial piety! They’re testing the tea for poison for you!”

Head manager Luo did it often himself so he was extremely familiar with this process. Of course,
head manager Luo wouldn’t directly drink from the teacup, however the general idea was the
same.

Li Yu: “……”

No way… did the Baos even know something like this?
It didn’t seem very likely. Being an emperor was probably one of the most complicated jobs in
this world. Li Yu still hasn’t been able to finish explaining to the kids the uniqueness of being an
emperor. Perhaps it was because the kids often stayed in Ganqing Palace and got used to seeing
head manager Luo doing it; therefore, they quietly learned it as well.

Perhaps in the kids’ eyes, the Emperor was someone who always ate leftovers?

However, there was one thing that head manager Luo said correctly. This was indeed an
expression of the kids’ filial piety towards the Emperor.

With a smile, the Emperor accepted the teacup. He didn’t even avoid the kid’s saliva out of
disgust and took a sip directly from the cup.

Although his sons always made him feel disappointed, there was still new hope in this world.

Experiencing two disturbances back to back, the Emperor was no longer in the mood to hunt. He
carelessly announced the end of this year’s hunting festival and prepared to pack up and head
back to court.

Jing-wang led Li Yu away and walked slowly towards their tent.

When they came to the hunting grounds, the two people’s hearts were both strung tight like bows
because they assumed that the 6th Prince was extremely likely to act here. Now that the 6th
Prince has fallen, even though the Emperor didn’t actually say anything definite to Jing-wang,
they were both extremely aware internally, that today pretty much determined the path of their
future.

Li Yu already knew a long time ago that Jing-wang had the protagonist aura. He remembered
that in the original book, Jing-wang had experienced so much suffering before obtaining the
throne; yet now, it was a lot more effortless and relaxing.

However. Why the heck not?

Jing-wang had already suffered enough in the original book, he should be allowed to feel more
relaxed.
During the events of this day, Jing-wang was mainly responsible for secretly tracking the 6th
Prince’s every move. Yet he still kept an eye out on Li Yu and the kids at all times.

Although Li Yu was in a public place with many people around, he was also very close in
proximity to the 6th Prince. However, Li Yu wasn’t afraid at all.

Because he knew that Jing-wang was right beside him, silently protecting him.

“TianChi, are you– tired?” Li Yu asked quietly.

Jing-wang shook his head, turned around and held Li Yu’s hand. The two people had a little
leisure time to themselves and weren’t in a hurry to rush back. Instead, they watched the hazy
moonlight for a while.

Once this trip ended, everything would change.

I will treat you well always.

Jing-wang moved his lips, saying this silent promise.

Li Yu blinked his eyes, telling him. I know.
