C229 The Fall of the First Prince's Party(1)

The fall of the First Prince's Party.

As the First Prince's residence was discussing how to deal with this crisis with his kin, a guard walked in in in a fluster and said to the First Prince and the ministers of the court. "Your Highness, this is bad! The Imperial City guards are here to arrest someone!"

The officials sitting at the side were stunned by the guard's words. They looked at the First Prince, a look of deep doubt on their faces. But in a few seconds, their doubts turned into fear. A hint of hesitation appeared on his face. They stood up from their seats in panic and prepared to leave. However, before they could reach the door, they were blocked by the guards who had rushed over.

"Dear ministers, where are you going?" Kong Lade stood out from behind the Imperial City guards with a smile and said to the crowd.

"Captain, what do you mean?" The uncle of the First Prince. He was the heir to the Windsor family, Duke Tardiya. Tardiya was the younger brother of the former Queen Anna and the older brother of the current Queen Madeleine. From ten years ago. The various matters of the Windsor family had slowly been handed over to him to make the decision, the original owner of the Windsor family. Because he was old, after handing the Laughing Fifteen over to Taridia. . . He didn't know where to go to enjoy his old age. As the leader of the Windsor family, he was naturally with the First Prince. There were also many cases of uncle and nephew colluding in collusion. For Leng Qingchen's kidnapping this time, Taridia had put in a lot of effort. Of course, he was also a lecherous man.

"Oh, so. . . Duke, you're here too. All the good people are here. That saves me a lot of time. I am sorry for today. I have received Your Majesty's orders. I want to invite the Duke and a few others to be guests in our Imperial Prison. " Kong Lade said with a smile. However, the few people beside him seemed to have fallen to the ground.

Especially our Duke Taridia. He looked at Kong Lade in disbelief and asked in doubt, "Captain, you are not joking, right? How could His Majesty give such an order? I think you must be joking with me! "

Kong Lade looked at the marquis in front of him. The smile on his face turned cold, and he calmly said, "Duke. I'm afraid you will be disappointed this time. If it wasn't for the order from His Majesty. . . I don't think I would be here. In my opinion, you and the few lords should come with us. Otherwise, I won't be able to explain myself, right?"

Looking at Kong Lade's cold face, everyone present was in the official circles. They understood that the imperial city's captain of guards wasn't joking with them. They were really going to be in big trouble this time. The situation was much more serious than they had imagined. Before they were ready, Kong Lade made a gesture. The guards below went forward to arrest them. Kong Lade said lightly, "Masters. Please come with me! "

In the face of this situation, it was impossible for them not to leave. In the next moment, a few officials from the court were escorted to the imperial prison for the first time in their lives.

The First Prince had long been dumbfounded by this scene. Although he knew that the current situation was extremely disadvantageous to them, he had never imagined that it would develop to such a state in the end. He panicked when he saw the ministers who supported him and his uncle being captured.

"Your Highness, His Majesty has also ordered that you must not go out for the time being. " Kong Lade said indifferently to the First Prince.

"Royal Father, is he locking me up? Guard captain, I want to see Royal Father!" The First Prince seemed to have thought of something. He grabbed Kong Lade's sleeve and begged. At this moment, the First Prince no longer had his usual arrogance. Instead, he looked at Kong Lade with a pleading look.

Kong Lade shook the First Prince's hand away and said, "Your Highness. His Majesty is in a bad mood right now. I guess you won't be able to see him. You should just stay in the residence for a little longer. Perhaps when His Majesty's anger is gone. . . I'll see you. It's better for you to relax now. " Kong Lade patted the First Prince's shoulder and left the mansion with his subordinates.

After Kong Lade left with the guards of the Imperial City, the other ministers who weren't taken away from the First Prince's side. . . Their faces were pale as they looked at the people who had been their companions a moment ago. Now, they had become the figures of the few prisoners. He looked to the side and had no idea what to do. The First Prince, who had been struck by the First Prince's words, glanced at each other. A few pairs of eyes met. It was as if they had reached an agreement with the First Prince, and they didn't care if the First Prince had heard them or not. They quickly bid farewell. He left in a hurry.

"Your Highness, are you alright?" The First Prince's trusted guard worriedly asked his Highness.

The First Prince ignored him and reached out to flip over the table, followed by the decorations in the room. Crackling sounds could be heard. It didn't take long before the originally tidy room became a mess. The guards at the side didn't dare to step forward in the face of the First Prince.

"Seventh Prince! I won't let you have a good time either!" The First Prince raised his eyes, and it was obvious that there was something in his eyes that he hadn't seen before. Through the spies that he had arranged in the palace, the First Prince easily knew that it was because of Seventh Prince's words in front of the Emperor that he had become like this.

Seventh Prince's mansion, Ye Tian's mansion, was just too good. It was really satisfying. When Royal Father saw the evidence, he couldn't help but feel delighted. Royal Father had been looking for a way to deal with these old nobles. This report of mine happened to take advantage of Royal Father's good intentions. This time, he had also brought along the First Prince's uncle. Duke Windsor has also been arrested. I want to see if he can still turn around. Haha. . . " Seventh Prince, who had just returned from the palace, laughed arrogantly. He faced Ye Tian who was standing at the side, showing no signs of holding back his complacency.

Ye Tian smiled. This was the outcome that Ye Tian had thought of before. Otherwise, Ye Tian wouldn't have given the information to Seventh Prince. That information could destroy the entire First Prince's party. Those who were officials in the court. . . Who could be a righteous and wise person? There was always something fishy going on. And the First Prince's faction was mostly the influence of the old nobles. There were even more shady things going on. In addition, the Emperor had originally wanted to suppress the forces of the old nobles. Naturally, he would not let go of this opportunity. This was because the Emperor's speed was much faster than what Ye Tian had expected. He had actually captured the man just like that. Without the support of the First Prince's party, the First Prince would never let go of this opportunity. He was like a fish on the chopping board. And this was the first step of Ye Tian's plan to properly entertain the First Prince.

"Congratulations, Your Highness Seventh Prince. Once the scourge of the First Prince's faction is eliminated, no one will dare to oppose Your Highness anymore. " Ye Tian said respectfully.

"Hehe, that's not it. This is all because of you, Ye Tian. I, Royal Mother, also know about this matter. I even said that I should thank you properly. Don't worry, I will do my best to help you find your fiancee. " Seventh Prince didn't forget to win over Ye Tian and said.

"Then I will write about His Highness here first. I am indeed very worried about my fiancée now. She has been missing for two days. " Ye Tian said in his heart.
