At this time the housekeeper hurried in and said, "Master Prime Minister, word has come from the palace that the emperor is writing an edict."

Qi Xiang's face suddenly darkened when he heard the news: "What is the content?"

"The emperor sent away all the palace people, leaving only Eunuch Cui to serve him."

"What should we do?" Jiang Zhong frowned, looking a little anxious.

Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Qi had a hint of bitterness on his face: "Our plan may have to change."

"Prime Minister, do you want to...?" Jiang Zhong's eyes flashed.

Qi Xiang nodded: "Yes, I decided to take a risk."

Jiang Chong's eyes showed surprise: "Master Xiang, this matter cannot be taken lightly. If it fails..."

"This matter concerns Feng Yuanqing. No matter what the cost, I will not hesitate." Qi Xiang's eyes were full of determination.

Jiang Zhong saw this and knew that Qi Xiang was serious, so he nodded and agreed: "In that case, then I'll go get ready!"

Qi Xiang looked at Jiang Zhong's leaving figure, his eyes gradually darkened, Feng Yuanchen would never allow him to sit on the throne of the emperor's grandson!

The emperor was reviewing memorials in the imperial study room. Suddenly his eyelids twitched, as if he had a bad premonition.

"Eunuch Cui, do you think they will move?" the emperor asked.

"Returning to the emperor, I think it will definitely happen. The rabbit will bite people when it is anxious." Eunuch Cui replied respectfully.

The emperor frowned slightly: "Then we just wait here for them to come?"

"No, I have a suggestion. Your Majesty might as well take advantage of it." Eunuch Cui said.

"What can we do?" The emperor looked at Eunuch Cui with some interest.

Cui Eunuch whispered a few words in the emperor's ear. When the emperor heard the words, his eyes suddenly lit up: "Okay! I will do as you say. There can be no mistakes in this matter, otherwise I will let you advance

Resign yourself to your hometown."

Eunuch Cui bowed to accept the order, and then walked out of the door with the imperial edict in a decent manner. The guard at the door saw him and hurriedly stepped forward.

"You guys, follow me to Prince Chen's Mansion!" Cui Eunuch said loudly.

"Ah? Why are you going to Prince Chen's Mansion? Shouldn't you be going to the Second Prince's Mansion?" A brave maid next to her couldn't help but ask.

Eunuch Cui glared at her coldly, and the maidservant was so frightened that she immediately shut up and did not dare to continue asking.

"You can't guess at His Majesty's decision at will? Be careful with your heads."

"Yes!" The palace maid was so frightened that she immediately bowed in response.

"Let's go!" Upon seeing this, Eunuch Cui turned around with satisfaction and left with the guards.

Eunuch Cui's every move was watched by interested people. Soon Feng Yuanqing also received the news. His face suddenly became ugly. He originally thought that his hard work during this period would be able to gain the emperor's temporary mercy.

, but in the end, he still wanted to pass on the position of the emperor's grandson to Feng Yuanchen!

This is simply a slap in the face!

"Send a message to Prime Minister Qi and intercept Eunuch Cui on the way." Feng Yuanqing ordered.

"Yes!" The personal guard beside him responded respectfully, then turned around to convey the order.

And on the other side is Qi Xiangfu.

"Prime Minister, Eunuch Cui has gone to Prince Chen's Mansion!" Prime Minister Qi's confidant knelt on the ground to report.

"Well, I already know." A cold light flashed in Qi Xiang's eyes, "Find a way to take action after Eunuch Cui leaves the palace, but don't let him die."

"Yes!" The confidant responded and withdrew.

Qi Xiang sat on the chair, the gloominess on his face became a bit darker: "Feng Yuanchen, since you chose death yourself, you can't blame me!"

"Prime Minister, what should we do next?" Jiang Zhong asked cautiously.

Qi Xiang raised his head, his eyes as deep as the abyss: "What can we do? Don't let this imperial edict leak out first, otherwise our plan will be ruined. Get the imperial edict first, and everything will go according to plan! You and Fengyuan are now with you and the troops.

Qing goes to join us, and when I catch Eunuch Cui, you will take action."

"yes!"

The two parties acted independently. Jiang Zhong led people and Feng Yuanqing to meet up. Cui Eunuch also led the guards and was blocked as soon as they walked out of the palace gate.

"Eunuch Cui!" Qi Lian rushed to greet him.

Eunuch Cui had a majestic expression on his face: "Prime Minister Qi, I'm sorry that I can't salute you. I went to declare the decree according to the imperial edict, so I won't exchange greetings with Prime Minister Qi."

"Eunuch Cui has misunderstood. The truth is that I came here just for this imperial edict." Qi Xiang said with a smile.

Cui Eunuch glanced at Qi Xiang, with a flash of suspicion in his eyes: "Oh, that's it."

"Eunuch Cui, I have a heartfelt request." said Qi Xiang, bending towards Eunuch Cui and cupping his hands, "I wonder if Eunuch Cui could do it conveniently and give the imperial edict to me first."

Hearing this, Eunuch Cui had a look of embarrassment on his face: "This imperial edict is to be handed over to King Chen. I don't dare to make the decision. I hope Prime Minister Qi will not embarrass the old slave."

Seeing this, Qi Xiang looked a little embarrassed, but he still said bravely: "Since Eunuch Cui has said so, why not let me go to Prince Chen's Mansion with you to announce the decree!"

Hearing this, Eunuch Cui glanced at him, and then nodded: "Since Prime Minister Qi is so enthusiastic, let's take a trip."

After the two of them finished speaking, they walked outside, talking as they walked. Unknowingly, the sky was getting dark and there were fewer pedestrians on the road.

Prime Minister Qi knew it was time, so he winked at his confidant, who immediately understood what he meant and slipped out quietly. Chinese website

Although Eunuch Cui noticed something was wrong, he did not say anything. After all, he came out to catch the big fish.

The two walked for a while, and then Eunuch Cui suddenly stopped.

"Eunuch Cui? Why did you stop?" Qi Xiang asked strangely.

Eunuch Cui looked around cautiously and breathed a sigh of relief when he found that there was no movement around him.

"Qi Xiang, do you feel something is wrong?" Cui Eunuch asked in a low voice.

After hearing this, Qi Xiang shook his head: "There's nothing wrong with it!"

"No?" Eunuch Cui narrowed his eyes, full of suspicion, "Maybe this old slave is overly worried!"

After saying that, Eunuch Cui led the people and continued to move forward. Both parties slowed down in unison. At this time, someone suddenly shouted: "There is an assassin! Protect Eunuch Cui!"

Cui Eunuch's expression changed, and he subconsciously turned his head to look around. He saw a masked man in black appear out of nowhere, grabbed him and threw him to the side.

Eunuch Cui was unsteady and staggered a few steps and fell to the ground. His old face suddenly turned red as a pig's liver.

"Eunuch Cui, are you okay?" Qi Xiang rushed forward to help him, "Get up quickly, let's go quickly!"

After saying that, Qi Lian hurriedly helped him up.

"Go quickly! Go quickly!" Cui Eunuch urged quickly.

The two people hurriedly fled the original road and came all the way to the alley.
