Chapter 147 Li Chengze: It’s time to start the show!

East Palace, the main hall.

At this time, the entire East Palace was hung with white silks everywhere, and the big red lanterns above the door were changed to white, exuding a quiet and gloomy feeling everywhere.

Li Chengze, Li Chengru and Li Chengping saw the scene before them after arriving at the Eastern Palace.

Especially the entire hall, which is covered with white decorations, looks particularly strange.

Li Chengze, Li Chengru and others didn't feel anything and felt it was quite normal.

But Li Chengping felt very scared and kept taking deep breaths.

If his father hadn't insisted that he come over just now, he wouldn't have come here at all.

Fortunately, it is broad daylight now. If he had come at night, he would have been scared to tears.

However, Li Chengping felt a lot more relaxed.

Even before he arrived, he was already feeling horrified about the prince's murder.

Because we don't know the murderer and why he wanted to kill the prince.

After killing the crown prince, will the murderer attack other princes?
This is a question worth considering.

Fortunately, the murderer has been caught, and their prince’s life is not in danger for the time being.

Here, after Li Chengze walked into the hall, he saw a dark black coffin placed in the middle, surrounded by wreaths.

Next to the coffin sat a middle-aged woman in a white dress.

Li Chengze recognized the woman as the prince's biological mother, the queen.

What Li Chengze didn't expect was that.

The queen now has a pale and bloodless face, sunken eye circles, protruding brow bones, and a bandage wrapped around her head.

Not only did he lose his usual majesty, but his complexion also became much worse, and he had a few more white hairs on his head. He looked like he was twenty years older.

It seems that the murder of the prince was a great blow to her.

Afterwards, Li Chengze hurried forward and lay on the coffin. He saw that the person lying inside was Li Chengqian who had been dead for several days.

Li Chengqian is now wearing brand new robes, lying quietly inside.

But now only half of his face was exposed, and the other broken parts were covered by his hair. If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't see it at all.

Moreover, because he had been dead for several days, Li Chengqian's body had already developed a lot of corpse spots and began to emit a foul smell.

Upon seeing this, Li Chengze burst into tears: "Chengqian, your second brother is here to see you!"

"I didn't expect that our separation a while ago would be the last time we two brothers would see each other."

"Although our fights are usually fierce, my second brother never wants anything to happen to you."

"Because we are brothers!"

"Whoever dares to attack you, I will never let him go."

"No matter who he is, I will tear him into pieces and avenge you!"

……

Li Chengze was in tears and spoke with great righteousness and touchingness, which frightened Li Chengru and Li Chengping.

If I didn't know that the two of them had a grudge against each other, I would really think they were close friends.

They are now beginning to doubt whether they had wrongly blamed Li Chengze before.

The queen, who was sitting next to him, looked at Li Chengze crying on the coffin, and began to feel suspicious.

She did hate Li Chengze because his existence would affect the prince's future.

However, after hearing Li Chengze's words just now, all the resentment in her heart was transferred to Fan Xian.

In the past, no matter how much disagreements there were between Li Chengze and the prince, they were just minor fights and no one's life would be harmed.

After all, they were brothers. But Fan Xian was different. Even though he was also a brother to the prince, he still dared to kill him.

How could she swallow this!

So, she must kill Fan Xian!

At this time, Li Chengze seemed to be crying loudly, but he was actually calm inside.

He had no regrets at all about killing Li Chengqian.

After all, since you are a member of the royal family, you must be prepared for fratricide at any time.

And Li Chengze doesn't think so.

If Li Chengqian got the Bamlet sniper rifle, he would not be able to attack him.

This is true of people.

As long as you have enough strength, you will never let go of any enemy!
So, if we want to blame someone, we should blame Li Chengqian for being born into the wrong family.

At this time, Li Chengru and Li Chengping also walked to the coffin. Like Li Chengze, they looked at the corpse inside and began to cry loudly.

For a moment, the only sounds in the entire hall were crying and shouting.

After seeing this scene, the queen did not say much even though she knew it might be fake.

Now, whether it is true or false is no longer so important to her.

Her only belief in life now is to avenge Cheng Qian!

Just as the three were crying, a middle-aged eunuch came out from outside the palace and said:
"My three princes, His Majesty has a message."

As soon as they heard the word "oral order", Li Chengze, Li Chengru and the other two immediately stopped crying, quickly left the coffin, and knelt down to greet him.

Seeing this, the middle-aged eunuch hurriedly said, "The three princes do not need to kneel down."

"Your Majesty has ordered that the Crown Prince's funeral will be held in three days."

"During this period, the three princes will keep vigil for the crown prince until the funeral is over."

"Yes, I understand." Li Chengze, Li Chengru and the other two immediately nodded in response.

After the middle-aged eunuch finished speaking, he waved his hand behind him.

Several palace maids, carrying some white mourning clothes, walked up to Li Chengze and the other two.

After putting down their mourning clothes, they did not stay here but turned and left.

Li Chengze took a look at the mourning clothes on the ground, but didn't say much. He picked them up and put them on.

Anyway, it's just a few days of guarding the spirit, no big deal, just treat it as a trip.

Li Chengru didn't say much. Just like Li Chengze, he picked up his clothes and put them on. There was no expression on his face.

But Li Chengping was different. He hesitated for a moment, but when he saw that his elder and second brothers had already put on their clothes, he naturally did not dare to stop and put on his clothes slowly.

But inside, I was very nervous and even had a look of fear on my face.

Especially after hearing that we have to stay here for three more days, I became even more anxious.

It would be fine if it happened in broad daylight, but it would be very scary to be with the dead at night.

cough……

Li Chengping sighed helplessly inwardly and followed his two brothers obediently.

At the same time, in Guangxin Palace.

Lin Ruofu and Li Yunrui sat together and began to discuss something.

"Are you sure you want to replace him?" Lin Ruofu asked seriously.

Li Yunrui took a sip of tea in his hand and said, "Do you think there is another suitable candidate besides him?"
