Because he had focused all his energy on the crown prince, he had neglected his other sons.

It was precisely because the crown prince was too outstanding that he was so furious ten years ago when he found out that the crown prince wanted to use the Voodoo Gu to kill him earlier.

Emperor Ruikang closed his eyes in distress. That kind of act of raising a crown prince was the biggest mistake he had ever done in his entire life.

They all said that there was nothing wrong with the monarch, but was the monarch really right?

When the Master Xuan Ling and Prince Duan saw the expression on Emperor Ruikang's face, they knew that he had thought of the crown prince again.

Crown Prince, that was a pain that their royal family couldn't mention.

No one had dared to bring up what had happened that year, but they all knew that back then, it was the Emperor Ruikang who had done the wrong thing.

Regardless of whether the crown prince had done that or not, he should not have said those words to the crown prince, and even more so, should not have locked up the entire family of the crown prince.

Prince Duan looked at Master Xuan Ling, telling him to speak quickly. Otherwise, if his royal brother sat here and thought about the crown prince, he would be able to remember it until night time.

Master Xuan Ling was also aware of Emperor Ruikang's habit, so the moment he received Prince Duan's gaze, he pondered for a moment, looked at Emperor Ruikang, and said: ”Then regarding this matter, what exactly do you plan to do?”

Hearing Master Xuan Ling's words, the Emperor Ruikang instantly recovered from his thoughts. He looked at him awkwardly and asked: ”What did you say just now?”

Since Emperor Ruikang knew that Master Xuan Ling was using his status as an elder to speak to him, his tone of voice contained a hint of respect.

Master Xuan Ling was not angry because of Emperor Ruikang's questioning. Instead, he opened his mouth once again and patiently, ”I say, what do you plan to do about this matter?”

This time, even though Emperor Ruikang heard everything clearly, he did not know how to respond.

Master Xuan Ling was also well aware of Emperor Ruikang's personality. When he did not hear his answer, did not get angry, ”For the Imperial Family, for the Ye Family's Jiang Shan, you should make the most accurate decision.” After saying that, Master Xuan Ling closed his eyes and started chanting in his heart.

Seeing that Master Xuan Ling had stopped talking, he took two steps forward and looked at him, ”Royal brother, this matter doesn't have a good impact on us. We can't protect Qi'er anymore.” After saying that, the Prince Duan saw that Emperor Ruikang's expression wasn't good, so he softened his tone and continued: ”The most important thing is that Dong Shu's fate is too strange, we cannot go easy on her. If something really happens to her, and it was calculated beforehand, our royal family's calamity …”

Prince Duan did not finish his words, but he understood what he meant.

In front of their Ye Family's mountains and rivers, a single Ye Jingche was nothing.

Back then, even if Master Xuan Ling decided to send out the start of next year, their imperial family would face a calamity, and they had thought that the only chance of survival for this calamity was with Xu Shiqiu. But now, it seemed that it should be with this Dong Shu who had a strange face.

So this time, they definitely could not let Dong Shu down.

Emperor Ruikang also thought of this matter after being reminded by Prince Duan.

Thinking about their Ye Family's Jiang Shan, Emperor Ruikang closed his eyes and sighed. When he opened his eyes once again, they were filled with determination.

”Someone, make this Third Prince apologize to Xu Family. If he has any requirements for Xu Family, he will definitely fulfill them.” After saying that, the Emperor Ruikang thought for a moment before looking at Prince Duan again.

”It doesn't seem too bad.” The Prince Duan had a general idea of what was going on, so when the Emperor Ruikang opened his mouth, he could guess his intentions.

Ye Jingche still had not become a king, and he was about to be taken out.

So now, when his royal brother told Ye Jingche to visit his Xu Family to apologize, it was to throw the face of Prince Ye Jingche in front of his Xu Family and let his Xu Family trample on him.

Now that he had asked about the fertile land that was previously bestowed to Ye Jingche, it was most likely that he was planning to compensate Dong Shu.

As for the others, Prince Duan reckoned that his royal brother would make a move against the Liu Family.

Just when the Emperor Ruikang had ordered Ye Jingche to pay a visit to Xu Family to apologize and take back the fertile land that was previously bestowed to him, and even gifted him a imperial palace, he tidied up the Liu Family during the morning of the second day.

However, no one expected that after Emperor Ruikang took care of the Liu Family, he would issue a decree to take back the last remnants of the Zheng Family's military power.
