After Longkeduo started investigating the Imperial Household Department, the atmosphere in the Capital just felt wrong.
Although the Imperial Household Department was in charge of the Imperial Clan's daily necessities, this department was closely related to all the others.
So, trouble within the Imperial Household Department meant that it would not be the only one in disarray.
Ling Pu's troubles also meant that troubles befell the Crown Prince. In the Capital, Prince Zhi would definitely get involved.
Since he was pushing for Fourth Master to assume power, he would have to take action and hasten the Crown Prince's downfall.
In this world, many things have changed, but Imperial Father's suspicion towards the Crown Prince remained the same.
If he was to act, Noble Consort, among other concubines, would not stay idle within the palace.
Third Master and Fifth Master would not just stand by and watch either.
