Chapter 245 Abnormal Behavior
Chapter 245 Abnormal Behavior
It was unbelievable that Li Siming could be spared by the emperor even though he committed such a heinous crime.
Although the ministers strongly advocated the removal of Li Siming from the position of crown prince, after all, there was a difference between the emperor and his subjects, and no one dared to joke with their own life and property.
"Why is Father's behavior so abnormal today?"
Li Siqi was confused, but suddenly his eyes lit up and a bold guess came to his mind.
"Is it because my father has been bewitched?"
Li Siqi carefully raised his head and sized up the emperor sitting on the dragon throne, secretly wondering in his heart whether he had been possessed.
It seems that this is the only explanation that can explain the emperor's abnormal behavior today.
"I am also tired today, so I will leave the court."
The emperor seemed to be afraid that the ministers would once again propose to depose the crown prince, so he hurriedly announced the end of the court session and turned away. Such an abnormal behavior naturally attracted Li Siqi's attention.
After leaving the hall, the ministers following Li Siqi followed his steps one after another.
"Ninth Prince, the current development of things seems to be unfavorable to us."
"The Crown Prince is a sinister person, and he is very calculative. If we put forward a proposal that is not in his favor today, he will definitely bear a grudge against us. I am afraid that when the Emperor passes away one day, the Crown Prince will ascend to the throne, and that will be the day when we will be in great trouble."
The future situation was laid out before their eyes, and many ministers naturally worried about their lives and property.
"Everyone, please be patient. I think that my father's behavior today is a little abnormal. After I find out the truth, I will definitely give you an explanation."
In order to reassure his followers, Li Siqi paused and continued, "Since you have decided to follow me, I will definitely protect you all."
"Thank you, Your Highness the Ninth Prince."
After returning from the palace, Li Siqi went straight to Xu Yingying's residence.
"Ninth Prince, why did you come back from court so early today?"
Xu Yingying looked at Li Siqi with a little surprise, but soon realized something was wrong, "Could it be that something happened in the court today?"
Li Siqi has always been a calm and composed person. It must be a big deal that he could lose his composure like this.
"Ugh!"
Li Siqi sighed slightly and turned to look at Xu Yingying, "There is something I want to ask you. If you were possessed by your soul, would you do something that others would find abnormal?"
"This is quite possible."
After thinking for a moment, Xu Yingying immediately gave a positive answer.
"Did something happen in the palace?"
Xu Yingying asked Li Siqi immediately.
"Today in the court, many ministers petitioned the emperor to abolish the crown prince. Unexpectedly, this proposal caused dissatisfaction among the crown prince. Then the crown prince pulled out the accessories and beheaded a court minister on the spot. However, the emperor did not hold him accountable, but instead favored the crown prince."
Li Siqi concealed nothing and told Xu Yingying everything that happened in the court today.
"How can this be?"
Xu Yingying stood up subconsciously and asked, "The prince killed an important official in front of the emperor. This is a heinous crime. The emperor is so suspicious, how could he not investigate?"
Soon Xu Yingying also noticed the emperor's abnormal behavior.
"Don't worry, Ninth Prince. I will go to the palace to meet my father right away." Xu Yingying paused and continued, "If my father's soul was really shot, I will definitely be able to tell with my ability."
"Yingying, thank you for your help."
Since the matter was of great importance, Xu Yingying naturally did not dare to delay.
She immediately changed into the princess' uniform and took her maid into the palace.
Xu Yingying rushed to the palace with an anxious look on her face.
"Eunuch, please inform me that the Ninth Prince's wife wishes to see the Emperor."
The little maid beside Xu Yingying took a step forward.
"Princess, wait a moment. I will be there soon."
Xu Yingying stood outside the hall waiting, but kept thinking about this matter in her heart.
After a while, the eunuch ran out in a hurry and walked in front of Xu Yingying.
"Please go back, Ninth Prince Consort. The Emperor does not want to see you."
"why?"
Xu Yingying was a little surprised. The emperor deliberately avoided the question, which showed that something was indeed strange.
"The Emperor is not feeling well."
Xu Yingying frowned slightly, knowing that there was no point in persisting, so she simply returned home.
"Yingying, how is Father doing now?"
As soon as Li Siqi saw Xu Yingying coming back, he anxiously asked about the result.
"My father simply avoided me, and I was unable to find out the true cause of the matter."
Xu Yingying lowered her head and thought for a moment before continuing, "The only way now is to let Zhong Lin go."
After thinking for a moment, Li Siqi found that there was no better way, so he could only agree to Xu Yingying's proposal.
"Zhong Lin."
"exist."
"I'm giving you a mission. Go to the palace to check on the emperor. When you come back, tell me everything."
"Yes."
That night, Zhong Lin sneaked into the palace and came to the emperor's bedroom.
She looked up cautiously and saw that the emperor's soul and body seemed to be a combination of two parts.
Zhong Lin was puzzled. She leaned forward slightly and continued to look. She unexpectedly discovered that the emperor's soul had been replaced, and the person who now occupied the emperor's body was a pervert.
The pervert soon noticed Zhong Lin's presence and tried to control her, but fortunately she reacted in time and left the bedroom.
After returning, Zhong Lin told Xu Yingying everything he had seen.
"Zhong Lin, this time it's all thanks to you."
Xu Yingying immediately comforted him, "Don't worry, this pervert can't escape from my grasp."
"But I just fought him. This pervert is not that easy to deal with."
Thinking of the scene just now, Zhong Lin still felt a little scared.
"I have conquered you, so why can't I conquer a little pervert?"
Xu Yingying responded confidently.
Now that she already knew the whole story, Xu Yingying naturally didn't want to delay any further, so she broke into the palace that night, intending to deal with this pervert.
At the beginning, the guards of the palace were extremely strict, and Xu Yingying seemed to have no way to sneak in. She had no choice but to wait until the guards changed shifts and their vigilance was slightly relaxed before she could sneak into the bedroom.
"Who?"
The sleeping pervert soon noticed Xu Yingying's presence.
"How dare you, such a daring pervert, take over the emperor's body? Today I am here to teach you a lesson."
Xu Yingying didn't seem to give the other party any chance to react and started attacking directly.
"Who are you? How do you have such a powerful move?"
However, after just three rounds, the pervert could no longer hold on.
