The Sixth Prince was like a piece of unpolished jade. After being carved by Jiujiu, he gradually bloomed with his own light.
Originally, only the Tai Tutor would occasionally praise him. Now, even the riding and archery masters praised the Sixth Prince, saying that the Sixth Prince had talent and was a moldable talent.
The Sixth Prince was neither arrogant nor impatient for the praises of his masters. He still maintained his hard-working nature, reading more books and practicing more every day.
If the Sixth Prince became arrogant after being praised, then the masters would definitely have a bad impression of him. However, the problem was that even if they praised the Sixth Prince, the Sixth Prince had always maintained a state of neither arrogance nor impatience. He was still learning and training how he had been learning and training in the past.
Such a talented and hardworking person, as long as he was diligent, naturally could not be compared with ordinary people.
The more hardworking the Sixth Prince was, the more the masters liked him. This was a virtuous cycle.
Even the Emperor, who did not pay much attention to the Sixth Prince, had heard the Sixth Prince's name from the Tai Tutor three or four times this month.
Originally, for the Emperor, the Sixth Prince was just the child of a palace girl.
The Sixth Prince's family background was low, and his temperament was not pleasing. The most important thing was that whether it was learning, riding or archery, they were not good. How could such a person be liked by the Emperor?
But now, whether it was the Tai Tutor or the riding and archery masters, they all praised the Sixth Prince. In this way, it was difficult for the Emperor not to pay attention to the Sixth Prince.
The Emperor began to pay attention to the Sixth Prince. He wanted to make a move on the Sixth Prince, but he did not. The Third Prince could only take back his hands and feet.
After all, if he was caught, his reputation would be completely ruined.
The more the Emperor paid attention to the Sixth Prince, the more he liked the Sixth Prince, and the more he thought about the Sixth Prince.
However, the more he thought about it, the more he began to find that the servants in the Sixth Prince's palace who bullied their masters were not doing their duty. They even secretly did things to bully the Sixth Prince.
The Emperor was originally a product of palace strife. Naturally, his mind was not simple.
Thinking of the Sixth Prince's current intelligent appearance and the Sixth Prince's previous appearance, what else did the Emperor not understand?
Except for the eunuchs, all the servants who had offended their superiors were secretly dealt with by the emperor. As for how much information could be obtained, it depended on how tough the emperor's methods were.
However, the Crown Prince didn't care about the Sixth Prince at all. On the contrary, the Third Prince, who spoke of benevolence and morality but was actually more narrow-minded and vicious than the Crown Prince, was a little flustered.
Because of the sixth prince's performance during this period of time, he had already begun to arrange people under the sixth prince.
But the problem was that the Emperor's actions were too fast. He didn't even have time to deal with those people before they were taken away by the secret guards. Now, the Third Prince could only secretly pray that his people were tight-lipped and didn't betray him.
However, the reality was that the Third Prince's men were the ones he had bribed to work for the Sixth Prince.
Those people were fence-sitters to begin with. They would work for whoever paid them. Their mouths were as loose as their belts. The secret guards had countless ways of torturing people. Not to mention that this person's mouth was already loose, even if his mouth was as tight as a clam's shell, he would still be able to make you talk.
In less than a day, that group of people had all confessed.
Whether it was their own problem or being bribed, they all confessed. Among them, the ones that shocked the Emperor the most were the eunuchs who had been bribed by the Third Prince and the other eunuchs who had been bribed by the Sixth Prince's birth mother.
Before Jiujiu left, he also beat the Sixth Prince in all kinds of ways every day.
However, the reason he gave was simply an eye-opener for the Emperor. It turned out that the Sixth Prince's birth mother felt that if the Sixth Prince wasn't born, she would have already become an imperial concubine. It was the birth of the Sixth Prince that had blocked her promotion. As long as the Sixth Prince was killed, the Emperor would like her again.
However, no matter how inconspicuous the Sixth Prince was, he was still a prince. The Sixth Prince's birth mother didn't dare to act openly and could only act secretly. And this eunuchs was bribed by her to secretly deal with the Sixth Prince.
This reason simply refreshed the Emperor's three views.
The Sixth Prince's birth mother was a palace maid. She was the product of the Emperor's drunken sex. At that time, the Emperor only wanted to vent. How could he know what the Sixth Prince's birth mother looked like?
Moreover, how beautiful could a woman who could only be a palace maid be? No matter how beautiful she was, could she be prettier than the three thousand beauties in his harem?
If it wasn't for the Sixth Prince's birth, not to mention her status, he was afraid that even her existence would not be known by the Emperor.
Such a woman dared to do such a thing as bribing people to harm a prince. She simply ate a bear's heart and leopard's gall.
Not to mention the Third Prince's eunuchs. He was bribed by the Third Prince when he saw the Sixth Prince's good performance.
However, he was caught before he could act. Therefore, the Third Prince's matter was not a big matter, but it was also not a small matter.
If there was anyone to blame, it could only be blamed on the Third Prince. He had done such a good job that the Emperor had always thought that he was a kind and benevolent child. Now that the Third Prince had sent someone to monitor the Sixth Prince, the Emperor was stunned.
The Emperor had experienced the struggle in the palace. Even if the Third Prince's people did not have time to act, he would not know anything.
The Third Prince's image was too good, so once he did such a thing, the Emperor would be so disappointed and disillusioned.
The Emperor was not stupid. How could he not see that the Third Prince sent people to make a move on the Sixth Prince?
The Emperor had great expectations for the Third Prince, but at this moment, he was disappointed.
Moreover, with the Third Prince's move, didn't it prove that his previous kindness and generosity were all fake?
The Emperor had always thought that the Crown Prince's mind was narrow-minded and could not bear heavy responsibilities. Now, looking at the Third Prince again, the Third Prince and the Crown Prince were not much different.
In fact, the Third Prince might not even be as good as the Crown Prince, because the Crown Prince was openly bad, while the Third Prince was very hypocritical.
The Emperor would never have thought that because of the rise of the Sixth Prince, he would discover so many things.
The Emperor was that kind of creature who was good at imagining things. Although the Emperor himself did not like the Sixth Prince, the Sixth Prince was his son after all. He did not like him, but if others bullied him, then it would be wrong of others.
Therefore, even if those people confessed, the Emperor still let the secret guards execute them all secretly. As for the Third Prince, the Emperor did not do anything, but originally, his guard against Lin Zeyu was much lower than before.
When he doted on the Third Prince, he told the Third Prince about the existence of Lin Zeyu. Then, the Third Prince began to whisper in his ear, saying bad things about Lin Zeyu, and let him drug Lin Zeyu.
