Chapter 645 Coincidence
It was obvious that the prince now had to bring up his daughter, otherwise things would get complicated. Chen Er laughed when he heard the prince's words.
"Your Highness, don't try to pressure me with the concubines. I suspect they've done a lot of bad things in recent years, and they're probably acting as your protectors, aren't they?"
I will investigate this matter thoroughly, and you shouldn't have any other ideas. No one I, Chen Er, want to deal with has ever escaped my grasp.
Chen Er said domineeringly.
Thus, Li Yingcai, who had a lifetime of illustrious reputation, was temporarily detained by Chen Er for several years. When this news spread, it stunned many civil and military officials.
They never expected that Chen Er would even dare to touch a prince, but anyone who wasn't a fool could see that the emperor must be involved in this matter.
Otherwise, Chen Er wouldn't have had such power to touch a prince; what difference would that be from courting death?
At that moment, in Wei Zhongxian's residence, a young woman knelt on the ground.
“Lord Wei Zhongxian, my father has been imprisoned. I have pleaded with the Emperor several times, but he has ignored me. I hope that Lord Wei Zhongxian can come out and do justice for my father.”
This woman is none other than the emperor's concubine, who has come to ask Wei Zhongxian for help.
This concubine is no ordinary woman; she started as a maid after entering the palace.
Moreover, she unintentionally took advantage of the emperor's drunkenness to climb up to his side.
From then on, she rose to prominence, becoming a concubine envied by everyone. Although her status as a concubine was not high, this woman seized her power.
Many concubines were killed by this woman, so she can be said to be extremely cruel. Wei Zhongxian glanced at this woman and a smile immediately appeared on his lips.
“What are you saying, Consort? Your father and I are good friends. I was heartbroken when he got into trouble. I’ve been working on this matter recently, but Chen Er wants to make it a fact, and there’s nothing I can do.”
Wei Zhongxian, ever the shrewd and calculating man, said...
In fact, Wei Zhongxian had already figured it out; he knew he couldn't get involved in this matter anymore.
Otherwise, not only would the prince not be rescued, but I myself would also suffer the same fate as the prince. Moreover, the Empress Dowager has not yet regained her original position.
The emperor had absolute power in the court, which caused Wei Zhongxian a great deal of trouble.
The concubine immediately laughed, and with cat-like steps, she came to Wei Zhongxian's side, sat on Wei Zhongxian's lap, and began to act coquettishly.
"Oh dear, Uncle Wei Zhongxian, please help this young lady out. Don't you want to taste the flavor of the Emperor's concubine?"
After the woman finished speaking, she took off her clothes.
Although Wei Zhongxian was a eunuch, he still had other ways to satisfy his curiosity about women.
Wei Zhongxian couldn't wait to take the concubine into his room, but the two adulterers didn't notice.
At that moment, a pair of dark eyes were fixed on the two people's actions from the rooftop. The woman in the eyes was Zheng Yuqing.
Zheng Yuqing blushed deeply and blurted out the words involuntarily.
"What a despicable couple! Even a eunuch could do such a thing. I must tell Chen Er about this."
After Zheng Yuqing finished speaking, she left quickly, like a night owl.
No one noticed, but the woman didn't see a man sitting on another rooftop drinking.
This person was the assassin Zhang Tianfei. The moment Zhang Tianfei saw Zheng Yuqing, he smiled, shook his head helplessly, and continued drinking.
At this moment, in Chen Er's study, Chen Er's brows were involuntarily furrowed, because just now, according to Ma Dazhi's report, the prince's daughter had begun to work on this matter.
Moreover, having to meet with several officials every day put Chen Er under immense pressure. It was clear that if many officials pleaded for the prince, even the emperor would be at a loss.
This put Chen Er in a very difficult position, and just then, a woman ran in.
The woman, panting, sat down opposite Chen Er. She brewed herself a pot of tea and then looked at Chen Er thoughtfully.
“I just found out where Wei Zhongxian lives. Guess what I saw?” Chen Er stood up immediately upon hearing Zheng Yuqing’s words.
"Zheng Yuqing, haven't I told you so many times? Don't move against Wei Zhongxian now, and even with your skills, you might not be able to beat him. Why won't you listen?"
Chen Er was prejudiced; he even thought that Zheng Yuqing went to Wei Zhongxian's residence to look for an opportunity to assassinate him.
Upon hearing Chen Er's complaint, Zheng Yuqing's face immediately turned extremely ugly with anger: "Chen Er, you've gone too far! You didn't even listen to what I saw before you started blaming me. You're so mean!"
After Zheng Yuqing finished speaking, she was about to leave when Chen Er remembered that Zheng Yuqing had something to say to him. Chen Er immediately grabbed Zheng Yuqing's arm.
A smile appeared on Zheng Yuqing's lips, and she threw herself into Chen Er's arms.
Zheng Yuqing used considerable force this time, pinning Chen Er to the ground. Chen Er's eyes widened, and his lips trembled slightly.
"What exactly do you want? Don't make any rash moves. I already have Qin Luoshen."
Chen Er's voice sounded a little helpless. Zheng Yuqing rolled her eyes and then kissed Chen Er's lips.
"Anyway, I don't care, I'll be your wife for the rest of my life." After saying that, Zheng Yuqing stood up and took a sip of tea before continuing.
"I saw the Emperor's concubine and Wei Zhongxian together by chance. It's so shameful that the two of them did that kind of thing."
Zheng Yuqing's words made Chen Er break out in a sweat. The emperor's concubine was actually seducing Wei Zhongxian. This gave Chen Er a handle to use against her. Chen Er hugged Zheng Yuqing tightly.
“Excellent! You are truly my great general. You always bring me good news. You wait here for me. I will go see the Emperor now.”
Chen Er didn't see that Qin Luoshen had been standing quietly outside the window for several minutes, with a smile on her lips.
At this moment, Qin Luoshen walked in with a smile, carrying a bowl of snacks.
The appearance of Qin Luoshen made Zheng Yuqing feel embarrassed. After all, she and Chen Er had just been in that state, and if Qin Luoshen's wife saw it, it would be difficult to handle.
