791 Brother-inw (4)


    Fu Xiuyi smiled and said, “Although I can’t get the support of the Shen family, no one in Ming Qi can. Apart from the crown prince, anyone else who is tied to the Shen family will arouse Father’s suspicion. Originally, the crown prince was a step away from tying himself to the Shen family, but he didn’t expect something to happen halfway to ruin his n. Perhaps the heavens are on our side.” He had no regrets at all and only said, “Powerful officials in Ming Qi are all wary of being too close to the Shen family. Although the Shen family is rich and powerful, Shen Miao might not be able to marry well.”


    Consort Dong sighed. “That’s right.” After saying that, she thought of something. “But the crown prince really suffered a huge setback this time. Huangfu Hao’s matter will definitely not be settled so easily. Do you think this was done by Prince Zhou or Prince Li?”


    Fu Xiuyi did not form a faction because he did not trust his brothers. He had always been a loner. Originally, Prince Zhou and Prince Li fought the most fiercely. Now, Emperor Wen Hui wanted to support the crown prince and even wanted the crown prince to marry Shen Miao. Therefore, Prince Zhou and Prince Li were anxious. The crown prince had be their enemy, so they naturally had to do their best to get rid of him.


    Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that there was something fishy about the crown prince killing Huangfu Hao this time. It was very likely that the crown prince had been schemed against. No matter what, it was most likely Prince Zhou or Prince Li.


    !!


    However, such a tant scheme did not seem to be their usual style.


    Fu Xiuyi shook his head and said, “It might not be the two of them.”


    When Consort Dong heard that, she was stunned and asked, “If not them, who else?”


    The faces of Prince Rui and Shen Miao suddenly appeared in Fu Xiuyi’s mind.


    There must be some unspeakable rtionship between Prince Rui and Shen Miao. Although he did not know what exactly was their rtionship, every time Shen Miao was in trouble, she could always get out of it miraculously. All kinds of signs indicated that Prince Rui was undoubtedly the one who helped Shen Miao.


    Previously, Emperor Wen Hui asked the empress to test the Shen family by spreading the rumor that Shen Miao was going to marry the crown prince. Not long after, Prince Rui went to talk to Emperor Wen Hui, causing Emperor Wen Hui to give up on the idea of getting Shen Miao to marry the crown prince immediately.


    Now, the gathering to enjoy the incense this time was clearly set up to scheme against Shen Miao. Up until now, Huangfu Hao and the crown prince both fought like Kilkenny, but Shen Miao was unscathed as always. It was said that Shen Miao was also going to the Yi Feng Pavilion that day, but she bumped into an old woman on the way and couldn’t go. Why was it so coincidental? Could it be that Prince Rui was behind it this time as well?


    Even though he was in Ming Qi, he still dared to do such a horrendous thing so tantly. This Prince Rui was really a little terrifying.


    Seeing that Fu Xiuyi was deep in thought, Consort Dong asked him, “What’s wrong?”


    Fu Xiuyi came back to his senses and said, “Nothing.” Suddenly, he stood up and looked at Consort Dong. “I suddenly remembered that I still have something to do.”


    Consort Dong said with a nod, “Go ahead.”


    …


    On the other side, thank God, Ji Yushu and Gao Yang were finally released from the tower prison.


    Over the past few days, the two of them had been guarding the prisoners in the tower prison and had seen all kinds of torture methods. Gao Yang was not so much affected, but Ji Yushu was so shocked that he lost a lot of weight.


    The two of them looked at each other with teary eyes. After a while, Ji Yushu said, “I have to return to the Exiled Immortal Pawnshop to take a shower and change my clothes. Goodbye.” With that, he ran away.


    Gao Yang sighed. Looking at his disheveled face, he felt dejected. Xie Jingxing was actually so heartless as to get someone to send them to the tower prison for a small mistake. The tower prison! That was a ce that even Tie Yi could not withstand the first time he entered!
