Chapter 137 The Emperor and the Gao Family's Secret



Yes, surely someone as shrewd as Gao Wancheng could see the problem here?

He dared to say that if Gao Wancheng learned the location of the gold mine from Qin Zhiyu, he would definitely not spare Qin Zhiyu's life.

Fengyulou had been in close contact with him before, so Gao Wancheng couldn't possibly deal with Fengyulou in the same way he dealt with Qin Zhiyu.

It's possible that only Gao Wancheng had the confidence to escape.

The key to escaping...

"Is it the Emperor's trust in him?"

Zhao Shi'an poured a cup of the brewed tea for the Crown Prince.

His body stiffened for a moment, and he felt that his hands and feet were cold.

The Zhong family was a pillar of the Sima family, and the patriarch of the Zhong family had served three emperors. How could the emperor do this?

Zhao Shi'an looked at the Crown Prince quietly.

"How has His Majesty's health been lately?" Zhao Shi'an suddenly asked.
