The sixth prince, Yue Heng, was the big villain in the original book, but he was also really pitiful.

He acted as an invisible man for half of the novel, until the second half of the novel, when Emperor Changde was seriously ill and the crown prince was in sight, he frequently came out to disrupt the situation.

It could also be said to be revenge.

Everyone knew that the sixth prince was weak and sick, and the empress took good care of him and loved him. When the sixth prince became an adult, he begged Emperor Changde to let him live in the palace so that he could take care of his mother. The love between mother and son was really touching.

But who knew that the empress was just guarding against the sixth prince, knowing the truth and fearing his revenge.

The empress and the first imperial concubine were pregnant one after another, but there was something wrong with the empress' child, she used some tricks, and was overly startled during the pregnancy, resulting in stillbirth.

Even though the imperial doctor told her that there was something wrong with the child, the empress still had a chance to give birth to the child, but the result was that she gave birth to a stillborn baby, which was not even fully developed.

Such a fetus had always been regarded as an ominous existence, not to mention that it was born by the empress. Once the news was leaked, not only would her own succession be lost, but even the Cao family would be implicated.

The empress would never allow this to happen. Fortunately, she was prepared. The empress pretended to have a dystocia, and then sent someone to drug another pregnant concubine Li, who was the birth mother of the sixth prince, Yue Heng, to cause her to give birth prematurely.

Of course, the prematurely born child was replaced by the empress with her dead baby. concubine Li gave birth to an unlucky baby, which aroused Emperor Changde's anger, he abolished the concubine's position and put her in the cold palace. Concubine Li'S family was also implicated and declined.

Emperor Changde never heard a word of Concubine Li's explanation from the beginning to the end.

Concubine Li heard the cry of the child, and she believed that she would never give birth to a stillborn. In the cold palace, Concubine Li was also trying to find ways to see Emperor Changde to prove her innocence, and to bring the child back.

The empress had a difficult labor, but she suddenly gave birth prematurely. At that time, Concubine Li realized that the empress must have tampered with it.However, the empress was in charge of the six palaces, so it was very easy to deal with a disused concubine locked in the cold palace, not to mention that she wanted Concubine Li to die, after all only the dead could keep the secrets.

The blood bone worm was used on Concubine Li, and it didn't take long for Concubine Li to bleed to death. Even because of the late discovery, the blood bone worm was already gnawing at Concubine Li's flesh when she was buried.

After getting rid of Concubine Li, the empress silenced all the insiders back then, and used dystocia to cover up the fact that the sixth prince was born prematurely and weak, and detained the sixth prince in Changning Palace, rarely letting him go out.

The sixth prince was like an invisible person, but the rumors outside were all about how the empress doted on this son.

But there would never be an impenetrable wall in this world, and there would never be a secret that could be hidden. It was not only Concubine Li who was locked in the cold palace, but there was another concubine who was also demoted to the cold palace when the former emperor was in power. She was old enough to pose no threat to anyone, and no one had noticed her since.

Concubine Li realized that something was wrong after she was deceived, so she wrote down all her guesses about the whole matter in blood, and asked the old concubine to keep it for her, hoping that one day it would be handed over to the sixth prince, or an upright and honest minister , to reveal the truth to the world, so that everyone could see and understand how vicious the empress was.

Concubine Li and all the servants around her were dead, but the evidence remained in the cold palace forever, and no one knew about it.

The book didn't describe in detail when the sixth prince knew the truth, but Jiang Lin guessed that the time should be very early. If it was too late, the sixth prince would have no time to cultivate his own power and prepare for the incidents against the empress and the crown prince.

And this time, the behavior of making Emperor Changde inhumane and pushing everything on the empress's head was also very similar to the sixth prince's handwriting. As long as he hid it well enough so that no one would notice that he already knew his own life experience, with the image ofloving mother and a filial sonhe set up with the empress, no one would suspect him.

Yue Heng had two opportunities to go out of the palace throughout the year. One was the birthday of Emperor Changde and the other was the birthday of the empress. For the two, he would go to Hanshan Temple to pray for blessings.

With such a small opportunity, he could cultivate a large number of killers and private soldiers outside the palace. The mind of this sixth prince was beyond the reach of ordinary people.

But because of the need of the plot, the sixth prince fell in love with Jiang Jinyue, the heroine, and when he was only one step away from ascending the throne, Jiang Jinyue threatened him with her own life, and Yue Heng gave up the easy-to-get throne for Jiang Jinyue.

His soft heart brought him to his own tragic ending. Like his biological mother, Concubine Li, he died at the hands of the empress, and died because of the blood bone worm.

Wei Yunzhao looked at Jiang Lin for a while, and then asked, "Have you been suspicious of the sixth prince?"

Jiang Lin said, "It's quite suspicious, and I also suspect that Jiang Jinyue will go to find the sixth prince. Jiang Jinyue doesn't want to enter the palace. Now the best way is to find someone to marry her. The old pervert wants a name, even if he wishes to kill her directly, he can't do the act of snatching a married woman."

Wei Yunzhao asked again, "Then why is it the sixth prince?"
