Chu Ci thought to herself that it was impossible for her not to feel depressed, as she had clearly been teased and had her fingers touched by the Crown Prince just last night, and she had assumed that their feelings for each other were gradually progressing. But unexpectedly, after waking up from a nap, everything had returned to its original state.

  She was quite puzzled and thought that the Crown Prince had deliberately left without saying a word to her.

  Then, Chu Ci finished his early meal in a depressed mood and prepared to go to the Ministry of Justice, but unexpectedly, someone from the East Palace came over with an urgent message, saying that Chu Qing had requested an audience.

  When Chu Ci heard this, he finally came to his senses and had someone invite Chu Cheng into the palace.

  This time when I saw Chu Cheng, unlike the last time, Chu Cheng was wearing a plain white robe, without the former glory and luxury.

  Chu Qing pushed the wheelchair over slowly, looked at Chu Ci sitting on the chair for a moment, then lowered her eyes again, remained silent for a while before speaking softly: "The things that Second Sister asked me to consider, I've thought them through clearly."

  "While saying that, Chu Qing paused slightly and raised her head to ask: 'As long as I provide you with clues that are beneficial to you, will you let me go?'"

  Chu Ci nodded, "I will plead for you."

  Chu Cheng stared at her and sneered: "You plead for mercy, is it useful?"

  "I'll plead with His Highness the Crown Prince, it should be of some use." Chu Ci said with a smile.

  But Chu Qing heard her say that, and thought of the Crown Prince who appeared outside the Hu Guo Gong Fu that day, maintaining everywhere for Chu Ci. To be honest... if Chu Ci could really speak a few words to the Crown Prince, it would indeed be much better than her seeking help everywhere in vain...

  Then Chu Cheng fell silent for a moment before finally speaking up: "Second sister, is Xiaoyu in the hands of Ming Yushi?"

  Chu Ci nodded and then asked: "The person Xiao Yu saw at the Blue House, was it really you?"

  Chu Qing said in a low voice: "It was me, but I didn't do anything. I was just a figurehead to allow those people to enter the Blue Family Fort with a clear conscience."

  "Who is it?" Chu Ci's eyes were fixed tightly on Chu Cheng.

  Although Chu Ci had a vague guess in her heart about who it was, she still wanted to hear Chu Cheng admit it with his own mouth.

  "He is a wizard."

  Chu Ci did not relax after confirming his guess, but continued to ask: "Did Su Wang and they join hands to destroy the Blue House?"

  Chu Qing seemed to pause for a moment, then nodded lightly.

  "Chu Qing, you should know that wanting to retire is not just a matter of spouting a few lies to fool me." Chu Ci said calmly.

  Chu Qing heard her say that, and bit her lip again, opening her mouth to say: "Daddy... is also involved in this matter."

  Chu Ci had already suspected the Duke of Protecting the Country's mansion when she found that piece of Chu family military order in Qingzhou, but what she never expected was that the person involved in this matter would be her own father!

  "Chu Ci can't help but ask: 'Why? What's Father's motive?'"

  Chu Qing heard this and looked at Chu Ci with a cold smile, telling him very bluntly: "What else could it be? It's to overthrow the Crown Prince."

  "Is it worth risking the entire Blue House and even the whole city of Qingzhou to overthrow His Highness the Crown Prince? Has Father, as the Grand Marshal, gone mad?"
