Chapter 750: Chen Ji Escapes, Yanyan in Trouble (3)_1
Hengheng’s health had already almost recovered, and his status had been progressively stabilized. Explaining any more to Ye wouldn’t change anything; he couldn’t possibly depose Hengheng as Crown Prince to appoint Ye in his stead.
Ye was right, it was all his father’s fault. Since it was impossible to satisfy both sides, he might as well not let Ye harbor any illusions. Hengheng had also promised him not to act against Ye. Thus, letting Ye live out the rest of his life in peace... that would be best for everyone!
Thinking this, Emperor Huian’s expression once again became that of the majestic emperor the public knew: "If that is so, you shall stay in Prince Heng’s Mansion and reflect on your misdeeds. If you won’t consider your own future, you should at least think of the children under your knees!"
After speaking, regardless of King Heng’s reaction, Emperor Huian turned around and left the palace immediately, commanding the guards to be vigilant, and, with no intention of treating King Heng negligently, hurried away with Liang Gonggong.
The moon’s shadow slanted westward; the study in the Prince’s Mansion was still lit, with light streaming through the half-open window and casting its glow upon the blossoming plum blossoms in the courtyard.
The news of Master Lin’s death had reached the Prince’s Mansion before it made its way to the imperial palace. At this moment, having exacted his great revenge and repressed King Heng from causing any more trouble, Chu Heng’s face showed little excitement.
Rooting out the Lin Family had been Chu Heng’s wish for many years, and he was indifferent to the fates of the other members. However, he felt a tinge of regret over Master Lin’s death.
