“Yafu, what’s going on? Our situation is still tight, how can you let someone die in here?”

As soon as Jun Lintian entered the door, he asked and looked at Lin Yafu.

Lin Yafu’s eyes flashed with fear. She hurriedly kowtowed and said: “Your highness, Yafu didn’t expect this thing to happen. Usually, those two will just compete for Bing’er. But today, I don’t know what happened, but they suddenly fought.”

She is Jun Lintian’s counselor, but she acts as the person in charge of Qunfang Pavilion. She secretly helped Jun Lintian many times.

“Even if they fight, you should have stopped them earlier. Don’t you know who is Li Hu? Prime Minister Li is the crown prince’s people. With this event, what do you think the crown prince will think?”

Jun Lintian sat in his chair angrily. He didn’t want to reveal his plans on the surface, but this even unexpectedly happened.

“Your highness, today’s things are purely an accident. Such competition for a singer happened in the pavilion from time to time. The crown prince didn’t know your intention. The crown prince will not blame his highness.”

“Even if this thing is purely an accident, the crown prince will not think of it first. Once this matter is carried to the bright side, I’m afraid that the crown prince will be suspicious and obstruct us everywhere in the future.”

Jun Lintian was not worried about other things, he was only worried about himself. If this matter was brought to his father, he will be guilty of conspiracy.

“Your highness, now, the crown prince is not in the capital. The most important thing right now is to prevent Prime Minister Li from entering the palace.”

“How we will stop him? The person who died is not Prime Minister Li’s people, but his son.”

Jun Lintian slammed his hand on the table in anger: “This is what I’m worried about. If the person who died is Prime Minister Li’s subordinate, it will be a different case. But Li Hu is the Prime Minister favored son, he will definitely seek justice for his son.”

“It’s this subordinate’s ignorance.” Lin Yafu squinted her eyes, as she constantly analyzed the pros and cons of the situation, suddenly, she remembered something else.

“Your highness, the man who came to assassinate the crown prince today, found the last trace of the crown prince. The crown prince went to the Misty Forest, I’m afraid that he is now… …”

“What?” Jun Lintian was really angry at the moment, he suddenly stood up from the chair. His face was covered with killing intent.

“If he is dead, it’s good. If not, then this account will be counted on my head.”

Jun Lintian tightly pressed his lips. He has been planning for many years, his plans cannot be destroyed by a small mistake.

*Tock, tock* Suddenly, knocking sound came at the door.

Jun Lintian’s eyes narrowed as he asked, “What is it?”

“Your highness, Qin Gonggong has brought an edict, asking his highness to enter the palace as soon as possible.”

“So fast?” Jun Lintian was shocked. How did his father learn about things so soon?

“Let Qin Gonggong go back first, this prince will enter the palace soon.”

After that, Jun Lintian and Lin Yafu discussed some things and then left in a hurry.

*

Su Zimo and her party rushed back to the Mingyue Mountain Villa and went straight into the guest room.

“Mother.”

“Mother.”

Su Qi and Su Li got up and shouted.

“Qi’er, Li’er, what’s the matter?”

Su Zimo looked at the man lying on the bed with closed eyes, and doubt arose in her heart.

“Mother, he’s going to… …”
