Chapter 504 The suspicions of the Qian brothers and sisters
Jun Moxu's hands hung on his legs, his fists clenched.
"Do I need you to remind me? I naturally know something is wrong. I'm afraid this matter is targeted at me, but who has such courage?"
Cang Hong looked up at him again after hearing this, his expression lowered with a bit of speechlessness. Who else would be so bold as to not understand something so obvious? Besides that woman, who else could it be?
"Your Highness, I feel that City Lord Su is closely involved in this matter."
Jun Moxu shook his head in denial upon hearing this.
"It shouldn't be her. She hates Qiu Yue so much and even punishes her. It's impossible for Qiu Yue to do anything for her."
Cang Hong pulled the corners of his lips when he heard this.
"Your Highness, don't judge a person by appearances. The person Qiu Yue interacts with the most is City Lord Su. City Lord Su is the most suspicious..."
Jun Moxu still spoke without giving up after hearing this.
"It can't be her. You know, she wants the position of Crown Princess..."
This was the first time in all these years that Cang Hong felt that the prince was a little stupid, but he didn't dare to say it out loud.
"Your Highness, could it be that what City Lord Su said to you before was just a lie? After all, everyone can see the relationship between him and Young Master Jun."
Jun Moxu's face turned even uglier when he heard this.
"Let's check it out first!"
Upon hearing this, Cang Hong had no choice but to talk about another matter.
"Your Highness, what should we do with Qiu Yue's body? Can we set up a mourning hall..."
When Jun Moxu heard Cang Hong mention Qiu Yue, a hint of disgust flashed in his eyes.
"Such a vicious woman should be thrown directly into a mass grave. Pass the order on. There's no need to carry her back to the Prince's Mansion, lest she be contaminated by bad luck."
Thousands of families.
She only has this one sister who is born to the same mother as her. She is not close to her other two half-sisters. They are now having dinner with Qian Yan.
"Yan'er, I've already ordered someone to investigate this matter. I've thought about it over and over again, and I'm afraid this has been a setup since the Crown Prince became ill. It's a setup targeting the Crown Prince, and you've been implicated by the Crown Prince."
Qian Yan is not stupid. Having been the Crown Princess for so many years, she naturally knows the dangers of wealth and glory.
"Brother, if the Crown Prince loses power, who will be the biggest beneficiary?"
Qian Zexi pondered for a moment after hearing this and then spoke.
"If the Crown Prince steps down, the one who will benefit the most will naturally be the Second Prince, but we cannot rule out other princes. However, I still find this matter very strange. Although the Second Prince has made friends with some ministers and gained some influence over the years, his current strength is still not enough to overthrow the Crown Prince, not to mention that there is also the Empress in the palace.
Although the Sixth Prince is somewhat cunning, he has no support from his mother's or wife's family, and he doesn't even have a single person to run the show. He can't pull off such a big scheme. The Third Prince is a carefree person, always putting His Royal Highness the Crown Prince first. The Fifth Prince usually avoids court officials, and the Fourth Prince is usually not in the Imperial City. This matter is truly too bizarre."
Qianyan thought about what had happened during this period of time.
"Brother, do you think there was something that happened between the Crown Prince and City Lord Su that we don't know about?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Zexi looked at Qian Yan.
"Yan'er suspects that City Lord Su did this?"
Qian Yan spoke slowly after hearing this.
"Even if it wasn't her, she must have been behind this? Brother, ever since Qiu Yue was brought back to the Prince's Mansion by the Crown Prince, she hasn't had the chance to come into contact with anyone else. Why was she taken to the Bai Residence right after coming into contact with Su Han, and then to Jishidiang for a consultation? Even the Crown Prince himself doesn't seem to know about the Crown Prince's illness..."
What did Qian Zexi suddenly think of when he heard this?
"Yan'er, before the Crown Prince fell ill, we consulted countless doctors but none of them could help. However, after the people from Baise City entered the Imperial City, a cure suddenly appeared before us..."
Qian Yan was shocked when she heard this, and her voice was filled with surprise.
"Brother, the prince's illness was cured in Yaoyue Tower, right?"
Qian Zexi nodded after hearing this.
"Yes, I heard Yuzhu say that two special girls came to Yaoyue Tower who could cure impotence, so I told His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
After listening to this, Qianyan felt that something seemed to become clear.
"Brother, judging by the time the prince has been ill, I'm afraid he contracted a new illness while recovering from his original illness. Could his previous illness be related to this new one?"
Qian Zexi frowned when he heard this.
"I've previously asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince what exactly caused his condition to deteriorate, but he repeatedly refused to explain. If we could find out why he became incapacitated, things would become much clearer."
Qian Yan gritted her teeth and spoke after hearing this.
"I'll go back and ask him about it. If he's still unwilling to talk about it now, I'm afraid his position as crown prince will be over."
Qian Zexi suddenly spoke after hearing this.
"Yan'er, you and the Crown Prince had a good relationship a few years ago. Think carefully about when the Crown Prince first distanced himself from you."
Qian Yan's thoughts flew away when he heard this, and it took a while before he spoke.
"It seems that not long after the incident at the Prince Qin's Mansion, he went to Fengcheng. He was very friendly with me before he left...but after he came back..."
Qian Zexi murmured softly when he heard this.
"Fengcheng..."
Then his eyes suddenly brightened.
"Prisoners exiled to the northwest must pass through Fengcheng, so His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must have met Jun Moye and Su Hanchu back then. Something must have happened between them that outsiders don't know about. Yan'er, it seems that Su Hanchu is also a suspect. I will arrange for someone to investigate."
Qian Yan nodded when she heard that, then spoke worriedly.
"Brother, even if we find out something, I'm afraid we can't tell the prince for the time being."
Qian Zexi understood after hearing this. It was he who recommended the prince to go to Yaoyue Tower. If the prince was really infected with the disease at that time, he would probably bear a grudge against the Qian family.
"Brother, I understand, Yan'er. In all likelihood, someone has plotted against the entire Qian family."
Qian Yan spoke with suspicion after hearing this.
"Brother, I'm afraid there's something fishy about Yuzhu in the mansion. Everything that's happened is just too coincidental."
