The confidant was stunned, "Your Highness, don't you mean that Li Qi'an pretended to be a corpse and entered the palace?"

"The more unexpected something is, the more likely he is to do it. Cui Jian should be really dead. Using dead people may sometimes be more useful than using living people, because no one will guard against a dead person." Prince Jing said.

The face of the confidant became more and more solemn.

Pointing at the guard who came to report, "You, go back immediately, send more people, and we must find Li Qi'an!"

Now that His Highness has concluded that Li Qian is here, he naturally does not dare to take another step away from Prince Jing.

The guard also quickly took the order.

"Your Highness, I still don't understand why Li Qi'an chose Cui Jian?" the confidant said.

"Because he wants to use my hand to eliminate the Cui family!" Prince Jing said.

The confidant couldn't help but glance at the main hall, "So, it is really Uncle Cui Guo in the main hall. Li Qi'an borrowed Cui Jian's body to enter the palace, and secondly, he wanted to blame Cui Jian's death on His Highness. He is really good at planning!"

"I have never cared about the Cui family. When the prince was alive, the Cui family had always been against me. Therefore, if Li Qian wants me to get rid of the Cui family, then I will get rid of the Cui family." Prince Jing said.

"Your Highness, you don't want to kill Uncle Cui Guo, do you?" The confidant couldn't help but said, "Killing Uncle Cui now may cause some unnecessary trouble."

After all, His Highness has not yet truly sat on that throne. Cui Guojiu has a very important position in the court. If he kills him rashly, he will probably cause dissatisfaction among many people in the court.

"I have already come this far, why should I be afraid of trouble?" Prince Jing looked up at the sky, "Tonight is not a peaceful night to begin with!"

Kunning Palace.

"It seems that it is really not easy to find out the emperor's situation. Concubine Su has sent many people to monitor Kunning Palace." Empress Cui said angrily.

Li Chen was silent for a moment, "Maybe we don't need to inquire anymore. Someone will want to know about our father more than us."

"Who are you talking about? You're not talking about Li Qian, right? Can he still escape from the Hou Mansion now?" Queen Cui said.

"Those forbidden troops couldn't trap him in the first place." Li Chen said.

"But I seem to have heard that King Jing sent He Rong to lead the Beijing Cavalry Battalion to cooperate with the imperial army. The number of soldiers and horses that went there was no less than when he captured Dou Huaishan." Queen Cui said.

"What is the friendship between He Rong and Li Qian? Has the Queen Mother forgotten? I'm afraid Prince Jing did this on purpose." Li Chen said.

Queen Cui was stunned for a moment, "You mean, Prince Jing is deliberately luring Li Qi'an to the palace?"

"It's even possible that he's already here." Li Chen said.

Empress Cui shook her head, "Since you can see through Prince Jing's intentions, how can Li Qian not see through it? If he comes to the palace, he is throwing himself into a trap. Is he really able to?"

"Maybe others won't, but he will, because if we delay for one more day, my father's situation will become increasingly unclear. Even if Li Qian is not in a hurry, Xinyue will be," Li Chen said.

Queen Cui thought for a while and nodded, "What you said does make sense. In other words, we don't have to do anything now, just watch this scene."

"No, we must help Li Qi'an, otherwise we won't have any chance when King Jing really decides the situation." Li Chen said.

"Help? How to help? We are being watched now and can't even leave the harem." Queen Cui frowned.

"If you can't get out, then let the harem become chaotic!" Li Chen said.

Queen Cui's eyes also lit up, she was not willing to be locked up in this harem, yes, let the harem become chaotic.

At the palace gate.

The body of "Cui Jian" has indeed disappeared.

Originally there were many guards at the palace gate, but because it was a corpse, they all thought it was unlucky, so they were carried far away.

There were only one or two guards watching, but those two guards lay down, and no one knew when the body disappeared.

The guard who returned from reporting to Prince Jing looked at this scene with his eyebrows twitching.

His Highness Prince Jing was really right. He was a little unconvinced at first, but now he didn't know whether to admire His Highness Prince Jing or the person who pretended to be a corpse.

A large number of guards began to search for the whereabouts of the "corpse".

At this time, a fire broke out in the direction of the harem.

"It's gone, it's gone!"

Many eunuchs and maids were in chaos, shouting loudly.

The harem was also in chaos.

This chaos naturally affected many guards.

A figure also sneaked into the emperor's palace quietly.
