The prison was quiet. The candlelight danced, illuminating the old prince’s face, which alternated between green and white.

The old prince felt bitter. At that time, he only wanted to quickly reveal Shangguan Pu’s crimes and plead for mercy for him. How could he have paid so much attention?

BY tne time ne reanzea tnat sometmng was wrong, It was alreaay too late. ‘Ine person hiding in the dark knocked him out without giving him a chance to call for help.

When he woke up again, he was holding a dagger covered in blood. He heard Shangguan Pu calling for the imperial physician.

Not far from him, the emperor was lying in a pool of blood.

Right on the heels of that, he was charged with assassinating the emperor. No matter how much he complained, no one listened.

He felt wronged too.

He was not only aggrieved, he was also furious. He had done so much for Lord Jing, but Lord Jing was the first to attack him.

If he had any doubts about Song Jingchen’s previous analysis, he completely believed it now. Lord Jing had never planned to let him live for long.

“Nephew, you have to save me,” the old prince begged.

Song Jingchen glanced at him indifferently. “The harem of the previous dynasty is controlled by Lord Jing. Your Highness thinks too highly of me.”

Shen Yijia nodded in agreement and muttered softly, “That’s right. Lord Jing has everything under his control now. If he wants to get rid of someone, the person is dead unless they manage to save that useless emperor first. However, that useless emperor caused our Song family to be in such a state. It’s better if he dies.”

Song Jingchen was pleased by her words. He smiled.

Her voice wasn’t loud, but it wasn’t too soft.

At least the old prince heard it clearly. Or rather, Shen Yijia had deliberately said it for him to hear.

The old prince was shocked and could not figure out if this was what the couple was really thinking. He gritted his teeth and said, “The emperor is at most helping the evildoer. Don’t you want to know who really framed the crown prince and the Bulwark Duke’s residence back then?”

Song Jingchen clenched his fists under his sleeves. Shen Yijia scratched the back of his hand comfortingly and rolled her eyes. “You’re not going to say that

Shangguan Pu did it, are you?”

The old prince was stunned. “How did you know?” he thought.

“You really went through a lot of trouble to get us to save you. You’re blaming Shangguan Pu for everything.” Shen Yijia glanced at him disdainfully. “Shangguan Pu doesn’t trust you at all. Even if he really did it, would he tell you? Why don’t you find a better reason?”

“I…” The old prince suddenly paused and glanced at Song Jingchen carefully before falling silent.

Shen Yijia snorted. “You don’t have any excuses, do you?”

She held Song Jingchen’s hand. “Hubby, let’s go. Those people should wake up after the medicine wears off.”

She was referring to the soldiers guarding the prison outside. Not everyone could enter the Clan Residence. They had no choice but to drug the people outside.

Shen Yijia sighed. “It’s not easy to come once. We shouldn’t come again in the future, in case Shangguan Pu finds out.”

Song Jingchen nodded.

The old prince was worried about being killed every day. He didn’t dare to eat or sleep. It wasn’t easy to wait for two people who could save him. How could he bear to let them leave just like that? He gritted his teeth and said, “Wait.” The couple looked at him in unison.

The old prince thought to himself, “Why does this scene look so familiar?

These two seemed to have provoked me like this in the Song family’s cellar.”

Shen Yijia thought to herself, “What’s wrong with provoking you? This method is quite useful.”

“I can tell you everything I know, but you have to promise not to hold me responsible first,” the old prince said to Song Jingchen.

When he said that, Song Jingchen guessed that the old prince must have been

involved.

This made sense why he had not mentioned Shangguan Pu’s crimes at all when he revealed them in the cellar.

Song Jingchen smiled mockingly and nodded readily.

He agreed too quickly. The old prince felt that it was unreal. He pretended to be calm and added, “Swear it.”

Song Jingchen said indifferently, “If I really want to attack you, what’s the use of swearing? You don’t think there are really ghosts and gods in this world, do you?”

He paused and sneered as he thought of something. “If there were really ghosts and gods, those innocent women who were killed by you would have come to take revenge on you long ago.”

As soon as Song Jingchen finished speaking, the old prince seemed to hear the hysterical curses of those women before they died. He cowered and stammered, “No, it’s fine if you don’t swear. You just have to remember what you promised me.”

Song Jingchen didn’t respond.

The old prince took a deep breath. “Shangguan Pu was the one who took the dragon robe from my residence and placed it in the crown prince’s residence back then..”
