The Fourth Prince did not want to recall the days he had been in the palace. He was born in a royal family with weak human feelings, and there was no warmth at all, not to mention that he was helpless and the bullying he suffered can be imagined.

Lin Sishen once gave him a hint of warmth and witnessed his struggle and frustration while still at the bottom of the valley. The most important thing is that Lin Sishen accidentally lit up the spark that longed for power and status in the deepest part of his heart. From then on, the fire started to set off and was out of control.

As for how much he thinks about Lin Sishen, I'm afraid the fourth prince himself can't explain it clearly, but he does have a slight ignorance of Lin Sishen. It is not a deep affection, but a pathological covetousness and possessiveness.

When Lin Sishen was young, she gave birth to a handsome and beautiful face, which I don’t know how many women were better than that. After adulthood, she added a bit of heroism that was indistinguishable from male and female. In addition, she has always been weak and sickly, and most of the time she always has a weak and lazy attitude.

Although everyone regards her as a useless embroidered pillow, when I see her, I can't help but be amazed at her appearance.

The Fourth Prince is no exception. He was already worried about Lin Sishen, and his eyes lit up after meeting him again in Anqing City. He developed a strong interest and impulse towards Lin Sishen. What's more, Lin Sishen was still Shen Qingwan's favorite, which made him more special.

But his feelings for Lin Sishen were not out of admiration. He just wanted to snatch Lin Sishen away from Shen Qingwan and imprison himself as a plaything beside him, just like a bird in the cage. Let her watch herself become the supreme emperor who controls the world with her own eyes, making her unwilling but having to surrender to herself.

When he thought of that day, he couldn't help but tremble all over his body with excitement.

But now he is still afraid of Shen Qingwan after all, and he still tries to regain Shen Qingwan's help, so his intentions will naturally not be exposed on the surface. But if he really waits for him to reach the sky and holds the power of killing, the first thing he has to do is to get rid of Shen Qingwan and completely abandon the cowardly fourth prince who once needed to rely on others, so as to become a real emperor.

However, his top priority now is naturally to get rid of the second prince into the Eastern Palace, and he still needs to rely on Shen Qingwan.

The fourth prince's eyes were flashing with a dark light. He gradually pulled away from his memories. He raised his eyes to Shen Qingwan who was scrutinizing him. There was no clue on his face. He did not tell the things that happened in detail in detail. He just frowned and pondered: "Wan'er, Shen'er often went to the palace at that time, and he would inevitably have some clues. It should not be surprising that she was suspicious."

Shen Qingwan looked at him expressionlessly, and a faint light flashed in her clear eyes. She lifted her lips without being moved and smiled coldly, and asked softly: "Is that right?"

The fourth prince nodded and looked at Shen Qingwan with a sincere look on his face: "Wan'er, can you not believe anything about what the fourth brother said now? Over the past few days, the fourth brother has indeed done a lot of offending you, but it is all the fourth brother who thought you had abandoned the fourth brother. If you are angry, the fourth brother will apologize to you."

As he said that, the fourth prince bowed down slowly and bowed to Shen Qingwan.

Shen Qingwan looked at him quietly directed and acted by himself, not only unmoved, but even felt bored. However, on the surface, she finally gave the fourth prince mercy. She raised her hand and helped the fourth prince up, and said in a cold tone: "The fourth prince doesn't have to be so polite. I just want to make a deal with the fourth brother today. I can tell you the secret deployment of the second prince and Sun Wenqian in Longyou, but if you exchange it with it, you must promise me one thing."

Speaking of this, Chen Qingwan paused and then said seriously, "I want you to promise me that no matter what, it will never be detrimental to Shen'er to the General's Mansion."

The fourth prince stood up and agreed without hesitation. In order to show his sincerity, he even had to swear. Chen Qingwan did not stop him, but listened to him making a vow without saying a word.

Chen Qingwan naturally would not believe the fourth prince's oath, but she originally planned to tell the fourth prince the mystery of Longling, which just eliminated the fourth prince's suspicion.

She told the existence of Longling truthfully. After hearing this, the fourth prince was unbelievable. Although he guessed that there was a big secret hidden in Longyou, he did not expect that the secret was so terrifying. He never thought that the second prince had such courage to station troops in Longyou privately.

But this is fine, he felt ecstatic in his heart. With this matter alone, he could defeat the second prince in one fell swoop and never turn over. It seems that the position of the new king is the one who must be.

But this matter was a one-sided statement from Chen Qingwan. In the end, the fourth prince asked skeptically: "Wan'er, did you really see your second brother building a private military camp underground in Longyou?"

"good."

Chen Qingwan nodded, glanced at him casually, and reminded softly: "Although I saw it with my own eyes, I have no evidence in my hands. If the Fourth Emperor Brother wants to report the Second Emperor Brother in front of the Emperor's uncle, I may have to send someone to Longyou to find evidence. People and physical evidence are all in place, so I am sure to prove the Second Emperor Brother."

The fourth prince pondered for a moment when he heard this, but was still a little suspicious. He looked at Chen Qingwan's expression: "Wan'er, why do you turn to help him even though you know that your second brother is stationing troops in Longyou?"

Chen Qingwan raised his lips and smiled faintly, and asked, "Does the Fourth Emperor think that it is my intention to help the Second Emperor?"

The fourth prince soon understood: "Is it my father's private instruction?"

Chen Qingwan did not nod, but did not refute. He just glanced at her meaningfully, then turned around slowly, as if he was planning to leave.

The fourth prince's eyes flashed and he sneered inwardly: "It seems that my father feels that I have gained power recently and wants you to join the second prince's command and take the opportunity to suppress my arrogance."

Chen Qingwan walked slowly to the window and said quietly without looking back: "Wan'er said goodbye, and I hope the fourth emperor will not forget today's oath."

"Don't worry, Wan'er, the Fourth Brother will definitely not forget what he promised you."

The fourth prince was a little ecstatic and answered, but in an instant, when he looked up at the window, there was no trace of Chen Qingwan in the room, only the slightly open carved wooden window and a breeze that sneaked in from outside the window blew over his face.

The fourth prince stared at the wooden window and said three words disdainfully: "Silly woman."

After saying that, he walked to the window and closed the wooden window tightly, then slowly lowered his head, stood by the window without moving, and his eyes were constantly flashing with a cold light. After a while, he suddenly sneered a few times, and then he not only did not restrain himself, but his laughter became more and more rampant and prouder, so that he woke up the guards who were dozing outside the door.

The guard stared at the door of the room and looked at each other. After hesitating for a while, he raised his hand and knocked on the door uneasy. But after knocking, the door was suddenly pulled open. The fourth prince's figure was immediately exposed to the eyes of several people. After being shocked, the few people hurriedly knelt down and saluted.

The fourth prince stood behind the door with expressionless face, half of his handsome face hidden in the shadows, half exposed to the candlelight, making people shudder. His eyelids drooped, staring at the guards who were trembling at their feet, and said coldly: "Idiots, everyone has entered my house, you have no idea, what's the use of raising you?"

The guards were stunned when they heard this, and subconsciously bowed their heads to apologize: "I am not good at guarding, I hope your highness will forgive me."

The fourth prince snorted coldly and waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I am in a good mood today, so I won't bother with you for the time being. Send someone to call Li Wei, and I will tell him if I have something to do."

After saying this, the fourth prince planned to turn around and go back to the house, but as soon as he turned around, he paused and ordered in a deep voice: "From now on, more people will be sent to patrol the palace. If anyone breaks into the palace again, be careful of your head."

The guards were already scared and sweating all over and nodded quickly.

Not long after, a middle-aged man wearing black clothes and carrying a long sword appeared outside the fourth prince's door. After asking for instructions in front of the door, the fourth prince asked him into the room for a secret talk.

At the same time, on the roof not far outside the house, a white shadow quietly arrived, brushing quietly like a breeze, and his toes rolled on the eaves, bathed in the cold and bright moonlight, and his eyes closed as he looked at the man in black stepping into the door of the fourth prince.

Among the guards inspecting the royal palace, a man happened to raise his eyes accidentally, and from the corner of his eyes he seemed to have caught a white shadow on the roof. He was shocked and shouted and pulled his sword out of the sheath: "There is an assassin."

But when everyone was ready and asked him where there was an assassin, he blinked and saw that the roof was already empty, not even a ghost, and the white shadow just now seemed like an illusion.

The leader looked around for a long time, but there was no movement everywhere. Then he breathed a sigh of relief and raised his hand, slapped the man, whispering: "You kid, I'm afraid you're not dazzled, why are you shouting randomly?"
