Chapter 399 Dragon Robe
When Li Liangdi thought of this, tears started to fall again, almost soaking the dragon robe in her hands.
When the deal was done, she put on the cloak timidly and went out. Concubine Xiao smiled strangely.
"Don't worry, after you expose the Crown Prince for the sake of justice, I will ask the Emperor for mercy and let you go home.
Go back and hide your identity, marry a man who loves you and live a good life. It's better than wasting your life in the East Palace and living a widow's life."
The words "being a widow forever" still hurt her heart.
Li Liangdi knew that her future was blocked, but for the sake of her brother she had to be sacrificed.
*
Today is the last day of the action period.
I know there is no time to lose, but I am still hesitating.
The laughter in Yi Qiu's courtyard just now completely stimulated her last bit of conscience.
She closed her eyes tightly, and when she opened them again, she had regained some courage.
With trembling hands, she wrapped the dragon robe in a piece of indigo cloth and then wrapped it in oil paper.
In his deformed and twisted mind, he has already begun planning tonight's actions!
On this bright and starry night, it was time for Li Liangdi to do something bad.
Except for the two palace maids on night duty, everyone in Yi Qiu Courtyard went back to their rooms to rest!
*
In the main house,
As soon as the mother and her two children entered the inner room, the two children whispered to Fang Qingge,
"Mom, let's go find Daddy quickly. Daddy said last time that he would give birthday presents to the babies!"
Fang Qingge smiled and patted the two little guys' heads, and responded,
"Okay! Mom knows you miss Dad. Let's go now."
As he spoke, he took the hands of his two babies, changed his mind, and entered the space.
The robot Xiao Qi couldn't wait any longer, and its excited voice rang out.
"Master, shall we hurry up? The prince and the elf are waiting anxiously!"
Fang Qingge joked with amusement,
"Are you impatient or are they impatient?"
Xiao Qi's cheerful voice sounded,
"Hahahaha..., Master, my babies and I are so impatient waiting!"
"Yes, yes, mother, Xiaoqi and the babies are waiting anxiously!"
The two babies laughed out loud.
Amidst the laughter, Fang Qingge whispered,
"Send us to the imperial mausoleum outside Beijing to find the prince."
So Fang Qingge took the two babies and the robot Xiaoqi and left.
Everyone in the yard drank a few more glasses of wine because it was their babies' birthday, so they were all sleeping soundly.
*
At midnight, Button Fairy knew that Li Liangdi had taken action!
It cast a spell to create a maze in the entire inner and outer courtyards of the Eastern Palace. Even the guards who were arranged to protect Yi Qiu Courtyard when the prince left did not notice anything unusual.
Li Liangdi entered the Yi Qiu Courtyard through the dog hole as if she had entered an empty place, then successfully put the dragon robe in the right place and quietly crawled out of the dog hole.
*
The next morning, before daybreak, Emperor Kun had already attended the morning court.
Not long after,
The people in the East Palace were awakened by the noise.
At this time, Fang Qingge and the babies had not yet returned from the imperial mausoleum.
Yiqiuyuan,
The deafening knocks on the door, "Bang, bang, bang", scared everyone.
"I'm coming!"
Xiao Douzi and Wang Pozi hurried to open the gate, and saw Qin Huai standing at the door, escorted by several guards.
He was startled,
"Oh, Qin, Master Qin, what's wrong with you?"
Xiaodouzi screamed in fright.
Qin Huai said urgently,
"Don't scare Concubine Fang and the young masters."
When Mrs. Wang saw that something was wrong, she responded and wanted to go and inform Fang Qingge.
The captain of the guards came over and shouted angrily.
"Pass the order, everyone in the inner courtyard of the East Palace is not allowed to move. Otherwise, the sword will be merciless, and those who resist will be killed without mercy."
"Yes, Captain of the Guards."
*
Before Xiao Douzi could understand what was happening, several guards twisted his arms. He screamed loudly,
"Hey, let go, let go, Captain of the Guards, we can talk it out, why use force?"
However, no one listened to his words.
Then, the four little palace maids, Wang Po, Liu Po, and Hua Cao Shu, were pinned to the ground and unable to move.
When Nanny Jiang, Mumian and Haitang came out to check what was going on,
He wanted to run to the main house to protect Fang Qingge and her two daughters, but several guards came forward and controlled the three of them.
Nanny Jiang questioned the chief guard,
"I wonder why the captain of the guards is making such a fuss?"
The head guard ignored Madam Jiang and turned to the tightly covered woman behind him and said,
“Where is the physical evidence?”
*
At this time,
Xiao Douzi, Nanny Jiang, and everyone else noticed this unusual thing. They saw Li Liangdi Li Baoqi, wearing a fox fur coat, walking out from behind the chief guard.
Pointing to a corner of Yiqiu Courtyard, he said,
"Over there, in the hollow of that tree. I saw them hide in there myself."
The chief guard pointed at a few guards and said,
"Search."
"Here!"
Several guards with swords on their waists rushed over.
Following Li Liangdi's instructions, he found a small hole in the tree trunk, reached in and groped to take out an oil-paper bag inside.
"Captain of the Guards, we found it!"
"Open."
When the captain of the guards gave an order, everyone widened their eyes, not understanding what was inside.
After the guards opened it, there was a "hiss" sound and everyone gasped.
A dragon robe embroidered with a five-clawed golden dragon appeared in front of everyone.
"Ah? How could this happen?"
"Please spare my life! Please spare my life, Your Majesty!"
Some timid servants who came from other courtyards of the Eastern Palace knelt on the ground with a plop, sobbing and kowtowed violently.
Suddenly the scene was in chaos.
*
Xiao Douzi, Nanny Jiang, and Qin Huai shouted,
"This is a frame-up. This is a false accusation. The prince is innocent! The prince is innocent!"
"I beg the captain of the guards to look carefully into this matter. This is a frame-up!"
"Li Liang Di, is it you? Is it you who framed the prince?"
Everyone in Yi Qiu Courtyard cried out that they were innocent and all looked at Li Liangdi.
Li Baoqi was so frightened by the look in everyone's eyes that she took several steps back.
The two senior palace maids beside her lowered their heads in dilemma, their hearts beating like drums.
The two never expected that Li Liangdi would betray the prince.
But now they are in a difficult situation, and everyone in the Eastern Palace has already identified them as Li Liangdi's accomplices.
*
At this time,
Hearing the noise, Lu Liangyuan and Concubine Qian hurried over with the help of their personal maids, and looked at all the people in the Eastern Palace who were being held by the guards.
After hearing clearly that it was Li Liangdi who reported the prince's rebellion, Lu Liangyuan stepped back in shock as if she couldn't believe it, staring at Li Liangdi with bloodshot eyes.
He pointed his finger at her face and cursed.
"You? How dare you? How dare you? How did the prince do you any wrong? Why did he frame you like this?"
As she spoke, she rushed over and swung her arm towards Li Baoqi's face.
"Pa, pa" were two big slaps.
