How could Shang Chen not know what Huangfu Lingao was thinking? If what happened twenty years ago was really that his father was bewitched by someone or a demon, then the matter was a foregone conclusion. He only wished to be responsible for the safety of the people of Shang Kingdom in the future.
I even thought that if the people of the two countries did not suffer from the pain of displacement, and people could live in peace and happiness, then it would not be so important whether there was a Shang emperor in this world or not.
He was willing to be the Crown Prince of Shang for his entire life, and even be the nephew of Emperor Shengyuan and the cousin of the future Emperor Shengyuan.
But today, his cousin told him clearly about the incident 20 years ago, the incident that made him live in a foreign country, the tragic death of his father, the emperor, and his mother, and the fact that he had not been together with that person for 20 years.
Perhaps there is another conspiracy, a conspiracy to betray one's relatives and bring chaos to the world.
Today, his cousin asked him if he had heard similar rumors, and also asked him if he was the one who spread them. He did not think this was a lack of trust; on the contrary, he knew it was the greatest trust Huangfu Lingao had given him.
Shang Chen looked at Huangfu Lingao with a clear and upright gaze and said, "Shang Chen will definitely thoroughly investigate the matter of 20 years ago.

To avenge the unjustly killed soldiers of our Shang Kingdom, even if my body and soul are destroyed, I will never give up. Just one thing..."
Shang Chen took a step back, placed his hands on his chest, and performed the formal etiquette of a prince of Shang meeting a distinguished guest from another country, then said:
"Your Highness, as the Crown Prince of Shang, I ask Your Highness to be considerate of the innocent people of both countries and not to provoke a war between them."
"Okay, I promise you, no matter what the outcome of this matter is, I will never harm the innocent people of the two countries." Huangfu Lingao solemnly returned the gift and promised.
