Chapter 157 After His Highness the Crown Prince was reborn, he merged with the Prime Minister.
The Crown Prince's expression changed upon seeing the Prime Minister's behavior. He was astonished that the Prime Minister dared to stop him.
Why make him stay and finish the painting? Are you trying to make him watch how he ruins it?
So, will he be the next one to be destroyed?
"You can play by yourself, I'm not playing along."
His Highness the Crown Prince refused and stormed out.
They left the Prime Minister's residence.
The Prime Minister was surprised to see His Highness the Crown Prince leaving in such a hurry.
Does this mean you don't want to be in the same place as him?
Does His Highness the Crown Prince dislike him?
If His Highness the Crown Prince doesn't want to complete the painting with him, does that mean His Highness doesn't want to be with him?
The Prime Minister looked at the painting on the table and smiled.
My Crown Prince, now that you know what I'm thinking, what are you planning to do?
Do you never want to see me again?
Do you find me disgusting?
Are you afraid I'll cling to you?
The guards had no idea what kind of riddle the two were exchanging. In the end, they only said a few words about the painting before the Crown Prince left.
Is this an attempt to confuse the public?
The Prime Minister mentioned cooperation. Is there some kind of cooperation between His Highness the Crown Prince and the Prime Minister?
The guards didn't understand.
After returning home, His Highness the Crown Prince locked himself in his room and ignored everyone.
The imperial guards reported the Crown Prince's behavior that day to the Emperor.
His Highness the Crown Prince is acting very strangely today; the guards have so much to say about him.
But His Highness the Crown Prince only said those two sentences.
The imperial guard delivered the message, but the emperor was still confused and asked the guard to explain it in detail.
The bodyguard then recounted in detail how the two exchanged glances, how they understood each other, and how they cooperated.
The Prime Minister didn't even offer a proper greeting to His Highness the Crown Prince, and His Highness didn't seem to care at all.
This is clearly not an ordinary relationship between a ruler and his subjects.
It was also said that the two had fallen out and would never speak to each other again.
His Highness the Crown Prince was so at ease in the Prime Minister's residence, as if he were in his own home.
They entered the Prime Minister's study with ease.
The emperor listened to the secret guard's words.
This only fueled his suspicions that His Highness the Crown Prince was plotting something behind the scenes.
On the surface, everyone thought that His Highness the Crown Prince and the Prime Minister had fallen out.
Even the emperor thinks so.
Unexpectedly, the two had quite a bit of contact in private.
The Crown Prince is so familiar with the Prime Minister's residence; it seems he has visited it quite often.
The two can understand each other without saying a word; their tacit understanding is extremely high.
This shows how familiar the two are with each other.
The emperor always thought that the prime minister was his man and that he would leave him to the crown prince in the future.
In fact, the Prime Minister has always been the Crown Prince's man, but he is only temporarily serving him.
The Emperor summoned the Crown Prince.
He proposed that he send the prime minister as an imperial envoy to various places to investigate and understand the people's conditions.
His Highness the Crown Prince was quite surprised to hear that the Emperor wanted to send the Prime Minister away.
Why would the Emperor suddenly have this idea?
He couldn't help but ask the Emperor why he wanted to do this.
And why send the prime minister?
If the prime minister were sent out, would he be safer?
Give him some time to sort out the chaotic memories in his mind.
The Emperor's expression darkened as the Crown Prince pressed him with such questions.
Previously, the Crown Prince would never have cared about these things.
The Crown Prince never interfered with what he wanted to do or who he wanted to send.
They didn't even ask a single question.
The crown prince himself said he had no interest in these things.
Now the Crown Prince is so concerned.
Does the Crown Prince not want the Prime Minister to be sent to a post outside the capital?
It seems that the prime minister must be sent out.
He could help them up to that high place, or he could simply pull them down.
The Emperor issued the decree.
The prime minister was somewhat dazed upon hearing this imperial decree.
His Highness the Crown Prince had just met with the Emperor when the Emperor sent him away.
So, did His Highness the Crown Prince not want to see him, so he kicked him out?
He won't be back for at least a year or two.
Your Highness, you are truly heartless.
The Prime Minister looked at His Highness the Crown Prince.
His Highness the Crown Prince still had a smile on his face.
Is he really that happy?
Do you really want him to leave the capital?
His Highness the Crown Prince also looked at the Prime Minister, but seeing the Prime Minister's expression as if he wanted to devour him alive, he turned back.
The prime minister did indeed hate him.
That look in her eyes just now was like she wanted to devour him whole.
too frightening.
The Emperor saw the Crown Prince and the Prime Minister exchange a glance before looking away.
Just as the guard had said, silence speaks louder than words; in that one glance, the two exchanged something.
The Emperor couldn't see what the two were looking at, but their eye contact certainly showed a deep understanding between them.
The Crown Prince and the Prime Minister indeed had a close relationship.
The Prime Minister has set off.
His Highness the Crown Prince was very pleased; this potential threat had been eliminated.
Ideally, the Prime Minister would encounter some mishap while on duty, causing a blunder that would result in a severe punishment from the Emperor.
It would be best to transfer him directly away from Beijing.
His Highness the Crown Prince finally felt like visiting the Crown Princess and the others.
Since that nightmare, the Crown Prince hasn't had a good night's sleep, nor has he gone into the backyard.
Now that they've arrived in the backyard, the Crown Prince is in a very good mood and is even willing to read to the child.
The emperor was not in a good mood.
He was in a good mood when he first saw off the prime minister.
However, upon returning, the emperor discovered that the tiger tally he always carried was missing, and he was alarmed.
That tiger tally can mobilize 50,000 troops stationed outside the capital.
The emperor always carried this tiger tally with him at all times.
How could they just disappear all of a sudden?
Even when he was in the palace, the emperor knew that the tiger tally was on him.
However, the tiger tally was lost during the time it took to see the prime minister off outside the palace.
It's hard not to connect the loss of the tiger tally with the departure of the prime minister.
Could it be that the Prime Minister stole the Tiger Tally?
The fact that the emperor didn't discover it only means that the prime minister is very capable, not that he didn't do it.
Only the Prime Minister approached him today; no one else got close, let alone him.
He always thought the prime minister was just a civil official.
But today I saw that the Prime Minister could ride a horse and even carried a sword on his back.
He clearly knows martial arts.
Otherwise, what's the point of carrying a sword? Just for decoration?
The Prime Minister has really hidden his true intentions well.
What does the Prime Minister want the tiger tally for?
Is it for himself, or for His Highness the Crown Prince?
Is he retaliating by stealing the tiger tally because he sent him out?
Or do they want His Highness the Crown Prince to have these 50,000 troops?
Regardless of the reason, the prime minister should not have touched the tiger tally; what difference is there between that and treason?
The Emperor sent someone to summon His Highness the Crown Prince.
He cannot give the chance to allow the prime minister to contact the crown prince.
If the Crown Prince can repent and correct his mistakes, the Emperor can forgive him this time.
The Crown Prince was always well-behaved before, so why has he suddenly become a different person lately?
Was it because they knew the empress in the palace was pregnant?
Was he worried that if they gave birth to princes, he would lose his position as crown prince?
Your Highness, do not disappoint him.
