As the black-clothed man spoke, he shot a disdainful glance at the Crown Prince Li Xian and said rudely," I have to say that you have a good ability, and that is that you reincarnated very well. However, with your character, if you want to become the Emperor yourself, hehe, dream on!”
As the Crown Prince, although Li Xian was not loved or valued by Emperor Wu Zetian, he still had his own pride as the Crown Prince. The black-clothed man had criticized him again and again, and he finally could not take it anymore.
"This prince is very clear about this prince's character, so there's no need for you to say more. You also don't have the qualifications to point fingers at this prince. Speak, you came here secretly, so what shameful thing do you need this prince to do for you?”
After being the Crown Prince for so long, Li Xian had been trembling with fear every day, living as if he was treading on thin ice. However, as the Crown Prince, he was not a fool. Otherwise, he would have long been replaced by Liang Wang Wu Sansi.
Hearing Crown Prince Li Xian's words, the black-clothed man looked at him in surprise and laughed loudly. His gaze towards Crown Prince Li Xian also became a little more solemn.
"Not bad, not bad. I didn't expect you to still have some brains. As expected of Taizong's descendant. Since that's the case, I won't beat around the bush with you. I can help you get rid of Xiang King Wu Zaisi, but I have a condition.”
Crown Prince Li Xian was moved. Prince Xiang Wu Zaisi had always been a thorn in his heart. If someone could get rid of Prince Xiang Wu Zaisi, it would be the best thing for him.
After thinking carefully for a while, Crown Prince Li Xian realized that this matter had more advantages than disadvantages for him. What are your conditions?"
"Crown Prince, I want your identity token. Not only that, I also want you to write a letter personally, granting me the right to act as I please.”After the man in black finished speaking, his eyes stared fixedly at Crown Prince Li Xian.
His identity token and his personal letter made Crown Prince Li Xian hesitate. If the black-robed man took these two things and ran amok outside, then he would be finished.
Wu Sansi, the King of Liang, would definitely seize this opportunity to speak to the Emperor. At that time, his position as Crown Prince might very well be lost. However, if he did not hand it over to the black-clothed man, he would not be able to leave safely tonight.
If Prince Xiang Wu Zaisi left the imperial prison safely, then one day, he would be replaced by Prince Xiang Wu Zaisi. With the Emperor's love for Prince Xiang Wu Zaisi, such a situation was not impossible.
At this moment, the Crown Prince Li Xian had come to a critical moment that would decide his fate. If he handed it over to the black-clothed man, Prince Xiang Wu Zaisi would very likely die. If he did not hand it over, he would be replaced by Prince Xiang Wu Zaisi.
Thinking of his miserable life after being replaced, Crown Prince Li Xian clenched his fists. His fingernails pierced through his palms, and blood flowed out. However, he still did not know. He took a deep look at the black-robed man and spoke.
"I'll give you what you want. I hope you won't disappoint me. I want King Xiang Wu Zaisi to stay in the imperial prison forever.”After he finished speaking, Crown Prince Li Xian ignored the man in black and went to the desk and began to write.
Seeing Crown Prince Li Xian's transformation, the black-clothed man sighed with emotion. As expected of Taizong's descendant. Even the usually meek and cowardly Crown Prince Li Xian would have such courage at a critical moment.
Not long after, the black-clothed person obtained what he wanted and smiled at the Crown Prince Li Xian." Don't worry. I will definitely do what I promised you. In the future, you will know how wise your choice today is.”
After he finished speaking, the black-robed man disappeared. If not for the corpses on the ground and the fact that his identity token had disappeared, Crown Prince Li Xian would have thought that everything that happened today was a dream.
The man in black finally left, and he was finally safe. As for the rest, he didn't want to think about it anymore. He dragged his exhausted body back to bed and fell asleep in a short while.
Three days later, when Wu Zetian saw Di Renjie in Yuanjue Temple, she was so happy. Only at this moment did she understand why Prince Xiang Wu Zaisi said that he would be able to see Li Yuanfang in a few days.
When she thought about how King Xiang had worked so hard for her, yet she had thrown him into the imperial prison, Wu Zetian felt extremely guilty towards King Xiang. In front of Di Renjie and the ministers, Wu Zetian spoke.
"Men, pass down the order. First, immediately recall the northwest general manager Qiu Shenji. We can discuss the war with the Turks later.”
"Second, from today onwards, reinstate Di Renjie as the Commissioner of the Phoenix Pavilion and the Luan Pavilion. He will head to the North Capital Taiyuan to sweep the ancestral shrine on behalf of Di Renjie.”
"Third, withdraw the arrest warrant for Li Yuanfang, the guerrilla general of Gan Nan, and order all the places to destroy the arrest warrant.”
"Fourth, immediately release Xiang King Wu Zaisi. Xiang King Wu Zaisi has made great contributions and will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold and a horse.”
The other ministers did not think much of the four imperial edicts. However, Di Renjie asked curiously," Your Majesty, why is His Highness King Xiang in the imperial prison?”
In Di Renjie's impression, King Xiang Wu Zaisi had always been deeply favored by the Emperor. It was not surprising that such a favored person was sent to the imperial prison and accompanied the Emperor like a tiger.
However, what was strange was that the reason for restoring his official position was to investigate the murder of the diplomatic mission. Li Yuan Fang was the same. However, why did he release King Xiang? This did not make sense! It had nothing to do with King Xiang!
