Chapter 584: 584 Admitting The Truth (1)

584 Admitting The Truth (1)

After asking, Shen Yijia immediately frowned. “This letter was sent at the right time. Does that mean that the person who sent the letter saw everything we’ve done recently?”

This was also what Song Jingchen was thinking. This letter came after he kidnapped the old prince.

At least the other party knew what he was investigating and that the old prince was currently in his hands.

However…

“Regardless of whether the other party is a friend or foe, if what it says is true, the old prince should also be kept in the dark,” Song Jingchen said.

Now that he thought about it, the reason why they found out about the Fragrant Teahouse was because of the information provided by the old man who fished. After that, it was the undergarment that came out of the Fragrant Teahouse with a special fragrance. These seemingly small clues pushed him to investigate further.

Also, someone must have deliberately exposed the female corpse of the Wutong River.

However, Song Jingchen felt that something was wrong. There was basically only one clue for him to investigate, but today’s letter was different from the vague reminder from before.

In short, if there was really such a person, they clearly did not want him to notice their existence. However, this letter would mean that they had no such concerns anymore.

Wasn’t this inconsistent?

No matter how he looked at it, it didn’t seem like the same person did it.

How many underhanded people were there?

Song Jingchen felt a headache coming on.

A cold hand pressed against his glabella. Song Jingchen came back to his senses and met Shen Yijia’s worried eyes. He relaxed and grabbed that hand. “It’s fine. Let’s resolve the matter at hand first.”

This case had to be resolved. They couldn’t be restrained because of the unknown. As for the others, be it friend or foe, they would have to show their faces at some point.

When the two of them returned to the cellar, the old prince’s mouth was already gagged, but he was still whimpering.

South Wind explained, “He’s been making a fuss, so I…”

Song Jingchen nodded and didn’t say anything about taking off the cloth. He sat down opposite the old prince and said firmly, “It’s Lord Jing, right?”

The old prince’s pupils dilated and he shook his head repeatedly.

“It seems that I was right.” Song Jingchen ignored him and placed the letter on the table in front of him. He said, “But Your Highness probably doesn’t know that apart from Princess Leyang, it’s impossible for you to have any other children in your life.”

After hearing his grandfather’s praise for the late emperor, Song Jingchen had always thought that he was different from today. He was a person who knew how to use people, was loyal, and had tolerance for others. However, reality told him that this was not the case. Perhaps the people in power always became more suspicious.

However, some people hid it very well, such as the late emperor.

The old king’s heart tightened. He stopped struggling and stood rooted to the ground.

Song Jingchen gestured for Mo Yuan to take his pulse.

As soon as the restraints on his hands were undone, the old prince took off the cloth in his mouth. “How dare you? What are you going to do to me?”

“Your Highness, aren’t you curious about what I meant just now?”

The old prince narrowed his eyes and stopped resisting.

After ten minutes, Mo Yuan let go and said expressionlessly, “His body was severely damaged by tiger and wolf medicine in his early years. It’s impossible for him to impregnate a woman.”

The old prince was already in his fifties, so the early years that Mo Yuan was talking about naturally wouldn’t be in the past ten years.

The old prince glanced at Mo Yuan and sneered. “She’s your person. You naturally have the final say.”

At this moment, he had even forgotten to clarify his relationship with Lord Jing. Clearly, he wasn’t as indifferent to Song Jingchen’s words as he seemed.

Song Jingchen gestured for South Wind to show him the letter on the table. He said with a complicated expression, “You had Princess Leyang a year after you married the old princess consort. Later on, the late emperor brought you to the capital and you enjoyed endless wealth. Unfortunately, the old princess consort has never been pregnant since then. I think you’ve not only doted on the old princess consort all these years. Have you never thought about why no one could get pregnant with your child?”

The letter was about the old king being drugged by the late emperor.

The late emperor might indeed care about this younger brother, but he was also worried about him. In order to prevent him from being blinded by power, he got someone to secretly drug him in the first year he brought him to the capital, completely cutting off the possibility of continuing his bloodline.

Song Jingchen even felt that it was a good thing that Princess Leyang was a woman. Otherwise, the old prince probably wouldn’t even be able to protect his only son.

It was no wonder that as soon as the old king entered the capital, the late emperor conferred him a fiefdom. He ignored the minister’s advice and was not worried that it would raise his appetite.
