At that time, the old prince would come out to testify against Shangguan Pu. As the righteous party, that person could be “justifiably” promoted to that position by the commoners without losing a single soldier.

“What a huge game of chess.” Shen Yijia frowned. “Then what should we do

Song Jingchen’s eyes darkened. “We wait.”

That person was waiting for Shangguan Pu to be convicted of treason, and he was waiting for that person to take action.

The emperor was seriously injured. Presumably, it would not be long before the edict to pass down the throne appeared. What better evidence existed in this world compared to a fake imperial edict about succession to the throne?

As Song Jingchen explained, Shen Yijia fell into deep thought.

How did her beautiful husband’s head grow? Was the thing in his head different from hers?

Song Jingchen thought that she was analyzing it herself and suddenly said,

“Since Your Highness is here, why hide?”

As soon as he finished speaking, two people suddenly appeared in the courtyard.

Shen Yijia was shocked. She was so focused on her thoughts that she did not notice.

Concerned about the courtesy between men and women, Madam Li stood up and bowed to the person before leaving.

As for Shen Yijia, she had never expected her to abide by these etiquettes like ordinary women, nor did she want to restrain her.

Madam Li felt that Shen Yijia was fine like this. There was no need to make any changes.

Naturally, if it were any other woman, she might not think that way.

After she left, Xuanyuan Ce walked into the central room angrily and sat down. He glared at Song Jingchen. “I’ve helped you many times. Is this how you treat your benefactor?”

Song Jingchen smiled and stood up. He bowed seriously to Xuanyuan Ce. “Thank you for your help, Your Highness.”

If not for Xuanyuan Ce, he would have been worried that Shen Yijia would barge into the palace today because she was too worried about him.

He was not worried that Shen Yijia would implicate him, but he was afraid that something would happen to her.

Xuanyuan Ce was very satisfied with his attitude, but he felt that this would make Song Jingchen feel that he was too easy to deal with. He tried his best to suppress the smile on his face and said in disdain, “That’s it?”

“Then what else do you want?” Before Song Jingchen could speak, Shen Yijia was unhappy.

Xuanyuan Ce choked. Fine, this little girl was on his side. He couldn’t do anything about it.

“I heard everything from outside just now.” He changed the topic.

Song Jingchen’s eyes were filled with a smile. He poured a cup of tea and pushed it in front of Xuanyuan Ce before asking, “Your Highness, what do you think?”

It was impossible for Xuanyuan Ce to mention this for no reason.

“Your analysis is not bad. However, someone who didn’t even show their face, but could play such a game of chess. The person who schemed against you and Shangguan Pu is definitely not an ordinary person. If you don’t do anything, the other party will be suspicious.”

Song Jingchen chuckled. “That’s why I sent someone to remind the ancestral residence.’

As he spoke, he spread his hands helplessly. “Not to mention that I’m suspended at home now, I don’t have any foundation in the capital. This is all I can do.”

It was not that he did not want to do it, but there was nothing he could do. He could only struggle on the verge of death.

Xuanyuan Ce thought to himself, “Oh, he has already thought of it.”

Looking at Shen Yijia’s adoration for Song Jingchen written all over her face, Xuanyuan Ce was unhappy again.

Why was he so smart? Didn’t he know that one would die if one was too smart?

At this moment, One Dot and Rooster entered from outside. When they saw Xuanyuan Ce present, they paused.

Song Jingchen nodded slightly before hearing One Dot say, “The two of us learned that the old man fell seriously ill a month ago. He’s dead.”

Song Jingchen wasn’t surprised by this outcome.

At Lord Jing’s residence.

Shangguan Pu returned to the residence with a tired expression.

Song Jingchen was right. He had indeed received the news after the old prince was captured.

After confirming that the news was correct, he didn’t rest the entire night.

Apart from not being able to capture Song Jingchen, everything went smoothly.

However, it was too smooth, making him feel uneasy.

Shangguan Pu had been able to arrange all of this since five to six years ago. It was obvious that he was not stupid. It was not that he did not suspect that he might have fallen into someone else’s trap, but things had already developed to the extent that he had no choice.

If the person who provided the information had taken the opportunity to ask him for benefits, he might not have been so suspicious. However, the other party did not mention anything. He did not believe that there was such a thing as a free lunch.

Most importantly, the other party could send him a message the moment Song Jingchen kidnapped the old prince. What did that mean?

It meant that the unknown person knew everything about him. That was the most terrifying thing..
