Volume 2, Chapter 19: Secret Discussions in the Pavilion
Li Zhi walked over, looking slightly worried I knew he felt that he was being too de me so soon after my recovery from a serious wound when it was still inconvenient forbeen in a coma for a month and a half, and these past several days had been prohibited fro s to discuss with me Therefore, I stood up with the support of Xiaoshunzi In a clear and bright voice, I stated, “Your Iive Jiang Zhe for being unable to welcome you”
Li Zhi promptly walked over “Suiyun, don’t co, he entered the pavilion With a s able to taste tea and appreciate the flowers, but also not having to worry about the cold wind Quickly sit down”
The movements just now had already caused beads of sweat to appear ondown Weakly, I said, “Your I”
Li Zhi wanted to speak, but hesitated He only spoke after drinking a cup of the fragrant tea handed hietic for bothering you, tell ht now?”
I shness has done well, seizing the opportunity to aug the sy, and the Princess of Jingjiang all are suspicious Over these days, Your Iain quite a bit of relief It is likely that Grand General Qin will consequently becohness After all, the suspicions against Qin Qing are the heaviest What further hness dissatisfied?”
Li Zhi blushed before he asked, “This Prince is just being anxious about how this matter should be concluded In addition, this Prince does not knoho the assassin was Does Suiyun have any thoughts?”
“Although I saw the man who shot me with an arrow,” I calreat and I do not know his identity Nevertheless, Your Iardless of who it is, you cannot despair because of Suiyun Your Ihness should still find an opportunity to reconcile with Grand General Qin”
Frowning, Li Zhi inquired, “You speak correctly, however if this was perpetrated by Qin Qing, how can this Prince allow hiate until the truth coht,<sup>1</sup> this Prince will absolutely not let this o Suiyun, you previously said that you had elanced at Xiaoshunzi During the days when Sang Chen was by one out to meet with Chen Zhen once Yesterday, he had reported totime span, the crown prince had already made two transactions with the Embroidered Union We had also earned quite a bit of et to record the persons and process involved in the crown prince’s s operation This information had reached my hands yesterday Nonetheless, at present, I had no intentions of using this chess piece, waiting to move only once the crown prince had returned to his bad habits<sup>2</sup>
Thinking it over, I softly responded, “This hness’s clean reputation It is better if Your I”
Li Zhi stared at , he said, “Suiyun, it’s not that this Prince is pretentious, but your conduct must not be too excessive If it harms the eive up on the position of heir apparent”
I s, “Don’t worry, Your Ihness This subject will not do those kinds of things” There was so that I did not say—if the Crown Prince wanted to do this, how does it involveto have ht? At ator However, the Crown Prince was the one co that heinous crime
With relief, Li Zhi replied, “If that’s the case, then good Suiyun, these are the intelligence reports from these last few days Slowly look theence dispatches handed over by the Prince of Yong, beginning to carefully study them
These days, the crown prince’s side had been quiet<sup>3</sup> After all, he was the arch-ene At this moment, even if he were kick someone as down, he couldn’t do so too brazenly, as the emperor was still alive This time, the emperor was also very suspicious of the crown prince Therefore, there were inevitably sos As a result, the crown prince endured silently, staying in his residence to satisfy his carnal pleasures, enjoying hi the crown prince satisfy his urges was a newly favored ih Xia Jinyi was licentious, he was a real genius in this field, training the songstresses and dancers of the crown prince’s household to beco the soul, their dances seductive The crown prince was left captivated,<sup>4</sup> spending every day ensnared by the intoxication of rouge and powder Were it not for the concubine, Xiao Lan, on the inside and Junior Mentor Lu Jingzhong without, it was likely that the crown prince’s residence would have beco this, I could not help but s that would have profound effects Even before he had ascended to the throne, the crown prince was enjoying the pleasures of life It seeoal had been achieved
However, the crown prince’s attitude was a puzzle The intelligence reports sent by Chen Zhen stated that the crown prince was occupied with siven the crown prince a taste and he was preparing a third transaction The Eood thingsas we tain to fight ast themselves It’s likely that the crown prince had handed control of this s to handle In this way, it can be assu was not ordinary If soation reached Lu Jingzhong, it would atto strictly control his subordinates The crown prince could sub in feminine charms and had been deceived by his subordinates With , no matter how deep it was, the crown prince was no more than an ambitious and ruthless character To want to become the ruler of all the people, how could he shi+ft responsibility to others?
There were also intelligence on the several suspects involved inhad been locked by Grand General Qin in their fa out Reportedly, Grand General Qin had used faet out of bed
Every aspect about Xiahou Yuanfeng was the same as always This in itself was abnormal His residence had strict protections In addition, it was inappropriate for the Prince of Yong to disturb the euard without proof Therefore, we had no idea what he was doing in secret
The Princess of Jingjiang, Li Hanyou, was sent to have an audience with the e, did not have any sons, his daughter was perratulations on his behalf However, Li Hanyou’s identity as a disciple of the Fengyi Sect was so was always acco the e wished to find a good husband for his daughter, thereby entrusting this matter to the empress Supposedly, the e to this point, I treyi Sect sunk their claws into Qin Yi, then this would be too terrifying It see took part in the assassination, there was no way that we could punish him I carefully recalled toabout hiardless of who this assassin was, he was definitely not Qin Qing Reminded of that day’s situation, I finally understood that so to sow dissension before assassinatingIt was coincidence that Vicious Killer was first I did not even have to think to knoas trying to sow dissension
Finally confir’s naoal was to for and Qin Yi I was likely the target because I was the Prince of Yong’s newest trusted aide Could I be considered as an innocent victim of the calamity that I suffered this ti to be so anxious, it seemed like there was no way forwas truly fors were very obvious If I were the one ee discord Instead I would have the opponent voluntarily ju absolutely hated the one stirring up conflict However, I found it odd that in order to sow strife, they would utilize the fake ru a relationshi+p between Princess Changle and myself
These reports were not especially detailed, presuence was all in the Prince of Yong’s study After all, the Prince of Yong was unwilling to tire me out As a result, the majority of these reports only had a few lines I did not waste any further tiation of the assassination attempt onthat had happened already Currently, it was sufficient forthese reports down, I shness, this subject now understands what happened There is no need for Your Ihness to worry These next few days, there is no harhness to visit the palace Only with Your I a little would this subject have the opportunity to act The assassination attees; therefore, this subject will not retaliate As long as Your Ihness prevails, this subject’s hatred will naturally be avenged”
“Suiyun already knows?” Li Zhi happily inquired, “Then as it that attempted to assassinate you? This Prince will definitely not let him off easily”
I shness, this subject does not have any proof and as such cannot be sure who it is However, it is enough to know that I don’t plan on letting thehness should briefly not relent, delaying the Grand General for a period of time If this matter is resolved now, then I’m afraid that the Grand General will not be able to obstruct theand General Qin If there are suspicions on Qin Qing, then the Grand General can tactfully and politely refuse”
