Gan Yongfu approached Emperor Changde and whispered: "Your Majesty, people from the East Palace said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to see the Emperor. It seems that he has something very important to say to the Emperor."

"The crown prince?" Emperor Changde put down the brush in his hand , frowning slightly, "He is grounded in the East Palace, what important matter made he come to me for?"

The crown prince's performance after being grounded satisfied Emperor Changde. The teachers he arranged for The crown prince all praised him for his serious study, and The crown prince himself also stayed in the East Palace peacefully and didn't have any undue thoughts. Emperor Changde still thought that if he had been like this earlier, he wouldn't have produced so many moths.

Gan Yongfu tentatively said, "Perhaps he misses the emperor and wants to see you."

Among so many princes, Emperor Changde was different to The crown prince, the emperor's partiality and love for The crown prince was by no means comparable to that of other princes. Now that Gan Yongfu mentioned it, Emperor Changde really thought about it.

Emperor Changde got up, "In that case, then I will go and see what he has to say to me."

The crown prince was walking around in the east palace courtyard with a letter. In order to see Emperor Changde, the crown prince didn't attend class today and directly asked a few teachers to go back first.

The crown prince was very happy to use this letter as an excuse to let him see his father, and to remind his father that his son was still confined in the East Palace.But he was also worried about the content of the letter. If it was true as said above, the second child might be against him.

After walking for a long time, someone from the palace came to report, "Your Highness, the emperor has arrived."

Gan Yongfu's voice shouting that the emperor arrived just happened to be heard outside the door, and The crown prince hurried to the door, lifted up his clothes and knelt down, "The son has seen my father, my father is blessed by thousand of fortune."

Emperor Changde looked down at The crown prince condescendingly, and found that The crown prince had lost weight, but he looked more energetic than before. It must have been hard work for him to be grounded these days.

Emperor Changde raised his hand, "Get up."

He was welcomed into the room, and after the maid served the tea, Emperor Changde asked The crown prince, "I heard you have something important to tell me?"

The prince's expression froze, he took out the letter on his sleeve and handed it to Gan Yongfu, who then presented it to Emperor Changde.

Emperor Changde opened the letter, the more he looked at it, the more gloomy his face became, and finally he slapped it on the table fiercely, angrily he scolded, "Presumptuous!"

The crownprince was so frightened that he knelt down, and Emperor Changde asked him, "Did you ask someone to investigate this matter?"

The crown prince hurriedly said: "Father, it's not the son who did it. This letter was sent to the East Palace by someone, and was picked up by the palace servant and sent to the son. The son felt that something was wrong, so he invited father to come."

"You mean that this letter appeared in the East Palace out of thin air?" Emperor Changde's eyes were sharp, full of suspicion.

The crown prince: "Yes, what the son said is true. The son have asked all people in the East Palace, and no one knows where this letter came from.

"Father, the son doesn't know whether the content of this letter is true or not. If it's fake, then it's fine, but if it's true," the crown prince's face turned pale, "the consequences will be disastrous."

The crown prince cupped his hands, "The son ask Father to thoroughly investigate this matter as soon as possible, just in case."

Emperor Changde glanced at the crown prince, his eyes were dim, "What if it's fake?"

" The son will apologize to the second brother."

After a long while, Emperor Changde said, "Check!"

"Thank you, Father," The crown prince kowtowed.

There was no such thing as missing father, only the news of suing his brother for rebellion, which was completely different from what Emperor Changde thought when he came, so when he left, Emperor Changde didn't give The crown prince a good face.

As soon as he returned, Emperor Changde issued a secret order that Dengzhou was closed and no one was allowed to leave Dengzhou.

In addition, he ordered to check the people who had been in contact with Dengzhou recently to find out the person who sent the letter.

After the series of orders, Emperor Changde supported his forehead with a headache, "None of them will make me feel at ease."

Gan Yongfu stepped forward to massage Emperor Changde's head, "Your Majesty, do you want someone to call Yuenu?"

Your Majesty If you are not happy, you can calm down by torturing Yuenu.

And this time when she was mentioned, Emperor Changde was even more unhappy, "I remember that the crown prince is the one she likes, go, let people focus on Fangyue Hall, she is not a quiet person."

"Yes."Gan Yongfu responded quickly, and said in his heart that it was a pity, if this beauty was really involved with The crown prince, he was afraid that she would have to die.
