Su Haoran received the message from the prince and smiled. After the prince's secret guard left, Su Haoran sent his henchmen and sent a few messages. It didn't take long for the other adult princes to receive a message: the crown prince was about to launch a mutiny!

On the night of July 15, the moon was round and bright, illuminating the streets very brightly.

However, there were no pedestrians on the street, and it was not yet dark, and everyone hid in their homes.

In the middle of July, the ghost door was opened, and no one would go out at night, for fear of being hooked by ghosts.

But this year's July and a half was different, and on the third watch, footsteps sounded on the street. Judging from the sound, it was not the footsteps of one person, but the footsteps of a large group of people. The footsteps sound very neatly, and their owners seem to have been trained.

The sound of footsteps was particularly abrupt in the quiet of the night, and many people were awakened by the sound of footsteps. However, no one got up to check the situation, and some people with big brains thought that this was a Yin soldier patrolling the city.

They listened to the footsteps as they passed by the door of their house and went in the direction of the palace.

Soon after, shouts of murder were heard from the direction of the palace, and the light of the fire there lit up half of the sky.

Su Haoran sat in his study, there was a chessboard in front of him, Su Haoran held a black seed in one hand and a white child in the other, and played chess with himself.

Su Haoran picked up a chess piece, placed it on a point on the chessboard, and then picked up another chess piece that was surrounded to death.

"This is the Third Prince!"

Su Haoran threw the chess piece out casually and picked up another dead chess piece.

"This is the crown prince!"

In the palace, the prince, who was ruined by several younger brothers, pulled out his long sword and stabbed at the third prince he hated the most.

The third prince thought that he was the winner, and he was complacent, he didn't expect the prince to die with such a move, and he didn't react for a while. And the guards beside him were stopped by the other princes' people intentionally or unintentionally, and they could only watch as the prince's sword stabbed into the body of the third prince.

Drawing his sword, the prince turned the hilt of his sword, placed the sword across his neck, and pulled it fiercely......

Su Haoran continued to fall into anticipation, and continued to pick up one dead chess piece after another from anticipation.

"This is the Five Princes. ”

"This is the Sixth Prince. ”

“......”

After a night, the palace finally returned to calm, but the thick bloody aura hung over the sky and could not dissipate for a long time.

The emperor appeared in the court with a very bad face, and his whole person was as if he was twenty years old, and his spirit was extremely sluggish.

No one dared to say anything at the entire court meeting, and the court dispersed after a while.

Su Haoran did not leave the palace, and was called into the imperial study with several of the emperor's henchmen.

In the imperial study, the emperor asked the people around him to tell Su Haoran and other ministers in detail what happened last night, and then asked everyone.

"What do you think?"

The ministers glanced at each other, and their eyes all fell on Su Haoran's body.

This is the emperor's most trusted and valued courtier, and if you have something to say, you should say it first.

Su Haoran pretended to cough and said to the emperor: "Does the emperor suspect that the fourth prince has done something in this matter?

This sentence asked the emperor's heart. They all came out of the struggle for the succession, although they walked more smoothly, but the emperor knew very well about the means of mutual calculation between the princes.

Don't look at the fact that the four princes are very innocent and have not been involved in this incident from beginning to end, but the emperor does not believe that the four princes are really innocent. He will only feel that this son's means are higher than other sons, and he will only be more jealous of this son.

Did the four princes think that he was the only surviving adult prince, and the emperor would choose him as the crown prince?

Think beautifully!

The emperor is only in his forties now, still in the prime of life, and he feels that he can be an emperor for another twenty or thirty years. Why was he dissatisfied with the prince before? I didn't think that the prince was too old and threatened his position.

Now that the crown prince and other adult princes are gone, although the emperor is sad in his heart, he is also relaxed. Anyway, he still has a young son, and he will be able to have another son in the future. There are enough sons, but there is only one throne.

If the fourth prince also died in this incident, the emperor would shed two tears for this son. But now that he was alive and well, the emperor was not happy, but found him an eyesore.

Su Haoran knew the emperor so well, how could he not know the emperor's thoughts.

The four princes were left behind for the sake of the emperor. Moreover, the fourth prince also has a bold and ruthless and ambitious mother-in-law, which is enough for the emperor to drink a pot.

Listening to Su Haoran's words, the emperor nodded: "The crown prince and other emperors made such a big move, I don't believe that the fourth child will not notice it, I suspect that the fourth child also intervened in it." ”

Su Haoran said: "Since the emperor has suspicions, it is better to let people investigate secretly." Wait for the results, and then think about how to deal with the four princes. ”

The emperor nodded and accepted Su Haoran's opinion.

The emperor has an exclusive secret force in his hands to investigate the affairs of the four princes, but he did not hand it over to Su Haoran and these ministers, for fear that some of the ministers will collude with the four princes and be detected by the four princes to investigate him. But the emperor's secret forces are different, the secret forces are only loyal to the emperor, and they are secretive, and the four princes will not find out about them.

The emperor didn't know that Su Haoran had already detected these secret forces with his profound skills, and went to their base camp and subdued them. Although these secret forces were ostensibly loyal to the emperor, they had already become Su Haoran's subordinates.

Su Haoran handed over the evidence that the four princes secretly instigated the three princes to lead the wolves to kill the prince, resulting in the death of the twelve princes and instigating other princes to participate in the prince's mutiny, and asked them to transfer it to the emperor.

After seeing these evidence, the emperor was very angry and jealous of the four princes, and felt that the four princes were ambitious.

The next day, the emperor found an excuse to reprimand the four princes, punished them for thinking behind closed doors, and did not decide when they would come out, and put the four princes under house arrest in disguise.

The fourth prince didn't understand why the emperor treated him like this, he still dreamed of becoming the crown prince. The emperor confused her with this hand.

The fourth prince couldn't figure it out, so he asked his mother to ask for advice from his mother, wanting Ling Qiaoyan to ask the emperor how he had angered the emperor.

Ling Qiaoyan didn't ask the emperor, there was a big girl next to her who was eating against the big eunuch next to the emperor. Except for her, the big maid and the big eunuch, no fourth person knew about this matter.

Ling Qiaoyan got a lot of news about the emperor through the great eunuch, and then revealed it to the four princes. The four princes have been able to gain a firm foothold in the court and do events in line with the emperor's wishes over the years, all thanks to these news.
