“Susu, I only said that it might happen if those four died. If they die, the east will have civil strife, but now they were only missing. It means, there is a 50% chance that we will not be seeing their dead bodies. ” The palace ministers could see that the emperor didn’t like the crown prince much, but they also knew that the emperor will not abandon him.
The emperor will not abandon the crown prince even after 10 years. The emperor will protect the crown prince and let him live a long life. And this why Lin Xiang dare to bet on the crown prince.
The emperor was still quite young, he will not let a savvy and capable prince take the position of the crown prince, nor will he let his son fight for the seat of the crown prince. The less capable the crown prince, the more stable his reign will be.
The crown prince was like a s.h.i.+eld erected by the emperor. As long as he will not suddenly get sick, he can still live a few years of a good life. The crown prince was like a s.h.i.+eld for the palace ministers to stop thinking about an unnecessary problem.
As soon as Su Cha heard those words, he frowned his eyebrows: “You mean to say, that they will be fine? And the emperor was just trying to trick the south and west to think that w.a.n.gye was going against them?”
“Who knows, it might also be to frame Third Prince Xiao Zian. As you know, in the eyes of other people, if the crown prince died, the one who will gain most will be him. And if the crown prince came back safely this time, maybe he will also try to kill Xiao Zian.” All of these were only a mere unreasonable guess, so how can Lin Chujiu dare to guarantee?
Su Cha nodded his head in agreement with Lin Chujiu’s guess: “Now, we just have to wait if the crown prince and the others are alright. But even if they are safe, we have to be careful.”
“I don’t care if they come back safely or not. You help me to do one thing first.” Now that such a great opportunity was in front of her, Lin Chujiu doesn’t want to let it go.
“What is it?” Su Cha asked.
“While they are in trouble, I want you to arrange people to spread rumors about the love story between the crown prince, Nannuo Yao, and Lin Wanting. Two women falling in love with the same man.” If it is only a love story between two people, it will not make much sense, so Li Chujiu added: “Make it Nannuo Yao intervening the Crown Prince and Lin Wanting’s love, so that’s why the two cannot get married. If the crown prince and Lin Wanting come back safely, people will only think their disappearance was due to emotional conflict between two women.”
The rumors were boundless. Her rumors have been circulating for half a month now, people in the capital must be bored by it. At this time, if there is something new catch their attention, the previous rumor will be covered up.
“This… isn’t it sound too fake?” When Su Cha heard those words, he had gooseb.u.mps all over his body. Such an outrageous thing, he didn’t expect Lin Chujiu will say it seriously.
“Then would you like to pa.s.s rumors about w.a.n.gye and Nannuo Yao?” Lin Chujiu asked with a smile. Su Cha shook his head immediately: “No, no, if w.a.n.gye learns about it, he will kill me.”
“It’s good that you know.” Lin Chujiu gave Su Cha sly smile, but then, she suddenly thought of something. Her eyes s.h.i.+ned brightly as she smirked: “Actually, I think of a better idea, but I’m afraid it will be too lethal. The emperor might jump in anger. ”
“What is it?” Su Cha was not afraid of the emperor’s anger. He was more worried if the emperor didn’t get angry!
