There was deep exhaustion and unbearable pain in her expression.
Su Yueming rarely showed such an expression, and the prince felt a sense of love and affection in his heart, and he immediately wanted to take her into his arms and protect her well.
Although he really wanted to know what she was thinking, he couldn't bear to ask any more, so he changed the topic and said -
"I suddenly dressed as a eunuch and entered the palace. There must be something important."
The tired look on Su Yueming's face disappeared, and the solemn expression returned to before, saying -
"Your Highness, can my father meet with His Majesty in the palace at this moment?"
"Prime Minister Su?" The prince shook his head, "No, Prime Minister Su asked for leave today, and he didn't come to court earlier. I still have his leave letter here."
Asked for leave? Didn’t even go to court?
This is really unlike Su Buqing's style, who has always been dedicated to court matters.
So, the treasure map he asked for was indeed dedicated to someone else.
Seeing her solemn and preoccupied look, the prince felt something was wrong and asked cautiously -
"Did you come into the palace specifically to ask about this matter? Did something happen again?"
Su Yueming briefly explained how Su Buqing asked her to seize the treasure map around Murong Canghai. Of course, she automatically omitted the step of Su Buqing's despicable "beauty trap"—
"So, I now suspect that my father has another agenda, and the person behind it is the Sixth Prince. He wants to get the treasure map of the Qin Dynasty to use it for evil purposes. Nowadays, our Zhou Dynasty is suffering from internal and external troubles, and the treasury is empty.
It will take at least three years for the disaster to be alleviated and for production to resume. If the Sixth Prince obtains the treasure at this time, recruits troops, and takes the opportunity to force the palace, the consequences will be disastrous."
"Sixth brother?" The prince's eyes tightened and he said, "Last time you reminded me, I deliberately alienated him, sent an informant to sneak into his mansion, and also placed the informant you said he placed beside me.
He was transferred from his original position, but there is still no definite evidence to prove that he intended to usurp the throne. This time, do you have more direct evidence?"
Su Yueming looked at the prince and asked, "This is just my guess. There is no direct evidence."
She couldn't tell the prince about her past life because she knew the personality and deeds of this scumbag Xuanyuan Qiche too well, so in this life she knew that the person who colluded with Su Buqing was the Sixth Prince without even thinking about it.
What the prince wants is not idle speculation, but solid evidence.
"Your Highness, if you have definite evidence, how will you deal with the Sixth Prince?"
The prince sighed slightly, with a complicated expression in his eyes, and said, "If so, I will kill you immediately."
Su Yueming found that although the prince said so, there was clearly a look of intolerance in his eyes. I was afraid that if someone came forward to express his feelings, he might be soft on Xuanyuan Qiche again.
In the previous life, he failed in his kindness, and this is still the case in this life.
She sighed deeply and said, "Your Highness, if you are not ruthless, your position is unstable. All nine of the emperor's sons covet the highest place in the temple. This is something that everyone understands. If Your Highness cares too much about brotherhood,
, I’m afraid the person I’ll hurt in the end will be myself.”
On this point, Murong Canghai's attitudes were completely different from his -
Murong Canghai would rather I betray the world than let the world betray me! He is a destructive man.
The prince is different, his character is more about perfection.
The prince pondered for a moment and said, "I will continue to send people to monitor the Sixth Prince to obtain conclusive evidence... By the way, the treasure map you mentioned..."
