The ancestor is here, she is here with space

Chapter 277 The original plan was disrupted

The eunuch's face turned pale. He didn't expect Lin Congyun to question his identity and purpose so directly. He quickly explained, "Second Prince, everything I said is true. If it weren't for the emperor's order, how could I dare to act on my own? Please understand my difficulties and let me take the seventh prince back to the palace."

Lin Congyun was unmoved. She shook her head gently, her eyes sharp as a torch: "I understand your difficulty, eunuch. But the safety of my father and my seventh brother's life depend on this matter. I must not be careless. Let me go to the palace to see the emperor and ask my father for permission to confirm this matter. In the meantime, please wait here for a while, eunuch and the guards."

After saying that, Lin Congyun turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by the eunuch in a hurry: "Second Prince, this... this is probably inappropriate? The emperor is waiting for the seventh prince to return to the palace."

Lin Congyun stopped and looked back at the eunuch, with a sharp light in his eyes: "Don't worry, sir, I know what to do. If it is really what father wants, I will personally escort my seventh brother back to the palace; but if there is any mistake, I, Lin Congyun, will never let anyone hurt my seventh brother in the slightest."

After saying this, she no longer paid attention to the eunuchs' obstruction, and walked quickly towards the gate of the mansion, ready to enter the palace to meet the emperor.

Seeing this, Feng Lieyang hurriedly followed, ready to be at the ready at any time.

Lin Congyun walked to the majestic gate of the palace, but was stopped by the guards. "Second Prince, you need the emperor's handwritten order or the queen's token to enter."

There was unquestionable determination in the guard's voice.

Lin Congyun was about to open his mouth to negotiate when he suddenly heard a series of footsteps coming from deep within the palace wall. Along with a whiff of elegant fragrance, a handsome young man in gorgeous clothes slowly came into view.

The man had a tall and straight figure, and his brows revealed an aura of majesty without even being angry. This man was none other than the third prince.

"Second brother, why are you stopping here?" The third prince's voice was gentle but carried an authority that could not be ignored. His eyes moved between Lin Congyun and the guards, as if he knew everything.

Lin Congyun bowed slightly and said, "Third brother, I wanted to go to the palace to see the emperor and confirm the truth of something, but I was stopped by the guards."

After that, she briefly explained the matter of the Seventh Prince, her worry evident in her words.

The Third Prince frowned upon hearing this, and then said to the guards, "Please leave. I have my own ideas on this matter."

Upon hearing this, the guard looked embarrassed but had to obey the order and retreat.

"Second brother, my father has been unwell recently, and most of the affairs in the palace are handled by my mother and me. What are you doing here? Perhaps I can help you solve your doubts first." The third prince's tone was gentle, but revealed unquestionable confidence.

Lin Congyun then informed the emperor of the sudden decree to bring the Seventh Prince back to the palace and his own doubts. After hearing this, the Third Prince pondered for a moment and said, "This matter is indeed strange. Although my father cares about his offspring, he will never easily order the movement of the seriously injured Seventh Prince at this time. Second brother, please be patient. I will immediately go to the palace to meet my mother and find out the truth."

After saying this, the Third Prince turned around and was about to leave, but then stopped and looked back at Lin Congyun, with a hint of deep meaning in his eyes: "Second Brother, you and I are brothers, we should work together to overcome the difficulties."

Lin Congyun nodded heavily: "Third brother, what you said is very true. I will wait for good news here."

The third prince said no more, turned around and walked quickly into the palace, and his figure soon disappeared into the deep palace.

Lin Congyun was waiting anxiously outside the palace gate, and time seemed to become unusually long at this moment.

Her heart was filled with worries about the Seventh Prince, doubts about the unknown events in the palace, and expectations about whether the Third Prince could bring good news.

Finally, when the third prince's figure reappeared in sight, Lin Congyun's heart tightened and he hurried to meet him.

"Third brother, how is it?" she asked anxiously.

The Third Prince's face was solemn, and his eyes revealed a hint of sharpness: "Second Brother, this matter is indeed a fraud. Mother has never issued an order to bring Seventh Brother back to the palace. She knows nothing about this matter."

Lin Congyun's heart sank, his worst guess seemed to be confirmed.

She took a deep breath and tried to calm her anger and anxiety: "What about Father?"

"After drinking the medicine today, the emperor fell into a deep sleep and did not summon anyone." The third prince said in a low voice, "It seems that someone has forged the imperial edict with the intention of harming my seventh brother."

A cold light flashed in Lin Congyun's eyes: "Who is so bold as to act like this?"

"It is still unclear who is behind this, but this is by no means a trivial matter. We must find out the truth immediately." The Third Prince said solemnly, "Second Brother, you and I will act separately. You return to the palace immediately to strengthen the defense and ensure the safety of my seventh brother. I will go to the palace to report this to our mother and ask her to make the decision."

Lin Congyun nodded and agreed: "Okay, I will go back home and make arrangements. Third brother, be careful."

After saying this, she turned around and walked away quickly, already having a plan in mind.

When I returned to the Second Prince's Mansion, the eunuch was no longer there. He must have fled for fear of punishment.

When he arrived at the courtyard where the Seventh Prince was temporarily staying, Lin Congyun saw Feng Lieyang, who had returned earlier, guarding the door with a vigilant look.

"Second Prince, you are back." Feng Lieyang saw Lin Congyun coming back and hurriedly went to greet him, "The Seventh Prince is doing well. I dare not slack off in the slightest."

"Well done, Deputy General Feng. From today on, you must strengthen the defense of the mansion and not let down your guard at all. Especially for my seventh brother, we must ensure that nothing goes wrong."

Feng Lieyang responded solemnly: "Yes, Second Prince! I will definitely take care of this matter."

Lin Congyun nodded slightly, then turned and walked into the house.

She needed to check on the Seventh Prince in person to make sure he was safe.

Entering the room, I saw the Seventh Prince lying quietly on the bed. He had taken medicine and was resting. Although his face was pale, his breathing was steady and he seemed to be fine.

Lin Congyun felt a little relieved, but she knew she couldn't let her guard down at this moment.

Now that the person behind the scenes has taken action, he will never give up easily.

As for the Third Prince, after talking to Lin Congyun, he did not go to the Queen's place. Instead, he took a walk in the Imperial Garden and then left the palace and returned to the Third Prince's Mansion.

The Third Prince walked into the study and swept everything on the table to the floor, with a sinister look on his face that could no longer be concealed.

"Your Highness, please don't be angry. Be careful not to get yourself in trouble." The servant beside the Third Prince advised carefully while secretly observing the Third Prince's expression.

"I originally thought that I could let the Seventh Prince die quietly outside, but I didn't expect the Second Prince to bring him back and publicize it so ostentatiously. All my plans have been disrupted by him."

The third prince's eyes were full of coldness and anger, without any of the gentleness and righteousness he showed in front of Lin Congyun.
