After Lu Ye left the Lu family, the servants looked at Crown Prince Ji Taimei with puzzled expressions.
Not to mention Lu Ye, who has been by the Crown Prince's side for over a decade, he still can't fathom the man's thoughts.
Perhaps this is the art of ruling.
The servants watched him, not daring to make a sound to disturb him, and waited quietly by his side.
"Xiao Gao, what do you think about this?"
Upon hearing this, the servant Xiao Gao quickly bowed and said, "Your Highness, I am ignorant and dare not speak presumptuously, but will obey Your Highness's orders."
Ji Taimei glanced at him and said calmly, "Just say what I'm told to say, and you'll be forgiven."
"Yes, I think the Lu family is treacherous and ambitious. Their talk about someone having a miraculous encounter and obtaining treasures is just empty talk. They only want to use Your Highness to take revenge."
Ji Taimei remained expressionless, but her voice carried a hint of coldness.
"Oh, so you think the Lu family would dare to lie to me?"
"This is something they wouldn't dare to do. The Lu family doesn't have the guts. However, I feel that the Lu family has ill intentions. I leave everything to Your Highness to decide."
Ji Taimei nodded.
"What Lu Ye said should be true. At the very least, Qin Feng is no ordinary person. He was able to kill the cold-faced Lu Ye, so he must be no simple character. Last time I saw him, he seemed to be in seclusion trying to break through to the Golden Core Realm. I wonder if he was still a match for Qin Feng. That's interesting."
As Lu Ying, the head of the Lu family, said, the struggle for the throne is very cruel, and he will not hesitate to take anything that can increase his own strength.
This Qin Feng has piqued his interest, and he plans to investigate him further. As for the feud with the Lu family, well...
It's already a blessing that a bird with shortened wings isn't roasted.
Ji Taimei coldly ordered, "Send someone to investigate this Qin Feng and see if he is really that powerful. If he can be used by me, that would be even better."
Xiao Gao understood. If they could be used by him, that would be best; otherwise, there was no need for them to exist.
Upon hearing this, the servant Xiao Gao immediately left to make the arrangements.
But as soon as he stepped out of the main hall, he ran into Tang Ling, the Crown Prince's concubine, who was accompanied by someone who looked unwell, as if she had been crying.
However, Xiao Gao had something to do and left in a hurry, still puzzled.
Ji Taimei looked at the pitiful Tang Ling with great confusion. This was someone he deeply loved and was quite infatuated with.
Tang Ling has recently unlocked many new moves that Ji Taimei finds irresistible, even the Crown Princess has complaints about him, and looks at him with a resentful gaze.
Seeing her heartbroken state, he felt a nameless rage ignite within him. Although he didn't know what had happened, he was already angry.
Ji Taimei asked anxiously, "Ling'er, what's wrong? Who offended you? Tell me, what happened?"
Tang Ling sobbed and choked out, "Your Highness, you must do justice for me!"
Seeing that she was emotional, Ji Taimei quickly comforted her.
"Ling'er, don't rush, speak slowly."
"Your Highness, my family, the Tang family, has been wiped out, and I am all alone. What am I to do? What am I to do? I don't even want to live anymore."
boom.
Ji Taimei felt her mind was exploding.
Another family has been wiped out, and it was also a family that worked for him. Is someone targeting him?
Was it his brothers who secretly intervened? Something's not right here.
First the Lu family was destroyed by that Qin Feng, and now the Tang family is next. Who will be next?
Having been groomed to be an emperor from a young age, he developed a suspicious nature, always overthinking things, which he euphemistically called thorough consideration.
He has now filled in all of this in his mind.
Seeing him deep in thought, Tang Ling didn't dare disturb him. This man's mind was fickle and his moods unpredictable; she dared not provoke him.
After a moment, Ji Taimei came to her senses and asked Tang Ling solemnly, "Tell me in detail what happened."
Upon hearing this, Tang Ling quickly replied, "Your Highness, I only learned about this from the people below. It seems that our Tang family offended someone, and as a result, the Tang family is gone."
Ji Taimei had been focused on Tang Ling, only to realize that Tang Ling had someone else with her.
"Is that you? You tell us."
The man quickly bowed and said, "I am Tang Hensheng, and I pay my respects to Your Highness the Crown Prince. The man who destroyed our Tang family is named Qin Feng."
boom.
It was Qin Feng again. Ji Taimei increasingly suspected that Qin Feng was acting on someone else's orders to specifically cut off his henchmen; otherwise, what a coincidence!
They killed all of his men.
Who exactly is it?
Was it the third brother, the sixth brother, or someone else pretending to be unknown?
However, he quickly realized that no matter who was behind it, this was a test of him and a blow to his prestige. After much deliberation, he came up with a plan.
If this matter can be handled well, his position as crown prince will be more secure.
Imagine if you could bring someone else's top general under your command; this would not only turn the tide of the battle, but also deliver a resounding slap in the face to that person.
The more he thought about it, the more tempted he became. He was determined to have Qin Feng and make him work for him.
Ji Taimei remained outwardly calm and said indifferently, "Continue."
"Yes, Qin Feng is narrow-minded. Our young master Tang Shaorong had a minor conflict with his mother more than ten years ago. I never expected that after so many years, he would bring up old grievances and do such a shocking thing. I beg Your Highness to do justice for our Tang family."
After Tang Hensheng finished speaking, Tang Ling quickly echoed, "Please, Your Highness, do justice for my Tang family."
Ji Taimei is now admiring Qin Feng, thinking: As a henchman, being vindictive and ruthless are all good qualities. Not bad, not bad, I like this person more and more.
