Chapter 507 Di'an Imperial City

"Darn it, my plans are going to fall apart again."

This was Li Junqing's first reaction upon seeing that sword light that pierced the sky.

He didn't know what shenanigans were happening within the Prime Minister's Mansion, but he knew that with such an incident, his plans for the night were most likely doomed.

He had set this trap for the Crown Prince's elder brother, and although he played the card of familial affection, it was not for the sake of blood ties.

Since the time he moved out of the Empress Mother's palace and continuously received praise and rewards from the Emperor, the love and doting from his blood-related elder brother had all turned into caution.

His elder brother was wary of him for having the same background and even more so, for the Emperor's favoritism towards him.
