Chapter 1617

At night.

Ming Shu climbed over the wall and entered General Rong Wei’s mansion.

The general’s mansion was a little big, but Ming Shu was not very familiar with it. She turned left and right, but she still couldn’t find General Rong Wei.

Kacha —

A soft sound came from above.

A black shadow pounced down from above and fought with Ming Shu.

After a few moves, the person said, “Sister Yue, it’s me!”

Ming Shu paused and stopped. She grabbed the man and jumped onto the roof beam.

Just as they went up, a patrolling soldier came up from below.

“Strange, I heard some movement just now…”

“Did you hear wrong? The wind has been strong recently. Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go.”

“It shouldn’t be, there was no wind just now.”

“Forget it, let’s take a closer look.”.

After searching the surroundings and finding nothing unusual, the group of people left.

Dong Shi pulled down his black mask and was very happy. “Sister Yue, what a coincidence.”

Ming Shu:”…”

Ming Shu asked him, “Why are you here?”

Dong Shi was not wary of Ming Shu and said directly, “I received a mission to kill General Rong Wei’s second son.”

Ming Shu didn’t have any reaction after hearing that. “Do you know where General Rong Wei’s room is?”

Dong Shi nodded. “Yes, I know the general’s residence very well. Today, the target got drunk with some friends. I’m going to kill him.”

“Lead the way.”

“Okay, sister Yue.”

Dong Shi brought Ming Shu to General Rong Wei’s room.

“Then sister Yue, I’m going to do a mission first. See you outside.”

“Okay.”

Dong Shi disappeared in a flash. Ming Shu pushed open the window and went in.

– ..

“Ah!”

In general Rong Wei’s residence, a scream was heard early in the morning.

General Rong Wei held his dead son and cried out in grief and anger.

The servants stood far away and didn’t dare to come close.

There was a young master in General Rong Wei’s residence who did evil things. He robbed the women of the common people, and now he was dead.

The servants were all happy in their hearts.

He died well.

General Rong Wei liked this young son of his.

He held him in his hands like a treasure.

Now that he was dead, how could general Rong Wei stand it.

“Shen Yue…”

General Rong Wei held the body of the young master, and his face was full of anger.

It must be that woman!

It must be her!

She was the one who killed his son.

He wanted to avenge his son.

“Someone! Someone!”

The person waiting outside immediately ran in and answered with a trembling voice, “General.”

“Go…”

General Rong Wei had just said the word “Go”when there was no more sound.

While the servants were puzzled, General Rong Wei roared again with dignity, “Get out.”

General Rong Wei looked at his son in his arms.

There was some grief in his eyes, but more than that, there was helplessness.

General Rong Wei’s son’s death caused a huge commotion. However, after General Rong Wei’s funeral was held, he handed over a plaque to the eastern palace and gave a brazen gift.

How could the prime minister not understand.

General Rong Wei was siding with the crown prince.

Not to mention the prime minister, even the crown prince could not understand.

Xie An guessed, “Your Highness, could it be that General Rong Wei’s son was the Prime Minister’s doing?”

The crown prince was deep in thought. When he saw General Rong Wei today, his eyes always fell on the people around him.

It was not an expression of admiration.

It was more like fear and hatred.

The two emotions interweaved and were a little twisted.

“General Rong Wei can not be reused. Be careful.”

“Yes.”Xie An thought the same. He felt that it was a little strange.

–

Ming Shu didn’t know how the Crown Prince dealt with the matter of the medicine. She only knew that the prime minister hadn’t been to court for a long time.

He was bald. She made some custom-made medicine. It was probably impossible for him to have black and beautiful hair again.

Although the Prime Minister didn’t go to court, he didn’t delay the political affairs at all.

He didn’t give the crown prince any chance to take advantage of the situation.

However, General Rong Wei’s stance made the crown prince’s side slightly better.

The first snow in the capital fell a little early. When Ming Shu got up, she saw the yard full of snow. Chu Ling ‘er was cleaning the yard with the palace maids.

She went down to the yard and pulled Chu Ling ‘er to the side. “Qiaoqing is making things difficult for you again?”

Chu Ling ‘ER’s expression was calm. “No, I took the initiative to do it.”

Because of Ming Shu, the ‘favorite’who served the Crown Prince, Chu Ling ‘er, who often stayed with Ming Shu, was quite free here.

Except for that Qiao Qing, who occasionally instructed her to do things here and there.

“Really?”

Chu Ling ‘er nodded.

Ming Shu took something and swept the snow with her.

Chu Ling ‘er was puzzled. “You don’t help the Crown Prince get up?”

Ming Shu frowned slightly. “He has been getting up very late recently, so he doesn’t need to go there at this time.”Recently, he didn’t even go to the morning court.

Chu Ling ‘er didn’t notice it, but thinking about it, she had been serving His Highness all day and knew it very well, so she didn’t say much.

“Do you plan to stay here and be a palace maid?”Ming Shu asked Chu Ling ‘er.

Chu Ling ‘er gave a rare smile. “This place is quite good.”

“Aren’t you afraid that the Crown Prince will lose his power? If something happens to him, the entire eastern palace will not be able to escape.”

Chu Ling ‘er wanted to shut Ming Shu’s mouth.

How could she say such things?

“Aren’t you going to plan for your future?”Ming Shu didn’t really care.

“How?”Chu Ling ‘er shoveled the snow. “I am lucky to be alive now. I am very satisfied. Even if in the future… I will accept my fate.”

“You don’t seem like someone who’s resigned to his fate.”

Chu Ling’er’s expression stiffened. She asked in return, “What About You?”

“If he wants the throne, I’ll fight for it for him. If he doesn’t want it, I’ll take him away.”

Chu Ling’er was stunned.

It took her quite a while to react. who was he referring to.

Chu Ling’er had never been able to see through her.

She wasn’t like a palace maid. How could a palace maid be so unafraid of death and oppose the crown prince all day long.

She didn’t have any rules at all.

As long as she was happy.

Chu Ling ‘er looked at the vast white snow and her eyes showed some confusion. She had been trying to live, but when did she suddenly feel that it was okay to die?

“Shen Yue, His Highness is calling you.”Qiao Qing stood in the corridor and called her with a bad expression. “You only know how to be lazy all day long.”

Ming Shu handed the things to the palace maid next to her. “His Highness allowed me to slack off.”

“You…”

“Sister Qiao Qing, calm down, calm down. Let’s not lower ourselves to her level.”

Qiao Qing was pulled back by the people behind her.

Ming Shu smiled and walked past her, heading towards the prince’s bedroom.

The bedroom was warm as spring. The prince sat by the bed, wearing a cloak.

“Your Highness, you woke up an hour earlier today.”

Ming Shu thought that he would retort, but she didn’t hear anything.

Ming Shu walked over. “Your Highness?”

The crown prince raised his head in a daze. His face was pale, and his lips were slightly open. “You’re here.”

His voice was hoarse and deep.

Ming Shu raised her hand and touched his forehead. It was cold.

Ming Shu quickly stuffed the heater she had prepared for him and took out the cloak she gave him and wrapped it around him.

“Hug me,”the crown prince said in a low voice, as if he was pleading with Ming Shu.
