The Seventh Prince looked at his smug and calculating face, his eyes darkened, but he shook his head with a smile: "If that's really the case, things are not so simple."
He said, "Both of these are major events that have shaken the court and the public. If they are really investigated together, many forces within the court will get involved."
"If something is really found to be wrong, can Fifth Brother be at ease?"
The Fifth Prince's eyes flickered, and he asked, "What do you mean by that?"
Seeing the naked look in the eyes of the person in front of him, he suddenly laughed and said, "Does Seventh Brother think that I sent these people?"
He waved his hand: "Don't think of me as someone who would stop at nothing to achieve his goals. After all, although Third Brother is my equal, I haven't fallen to the point of being associated with Su Shou Tang."
Unless these people are not from Su Shou Tang.
The Seventh Prince secretly added a sentence for him.
It didn't matter if he didn't admit it at this point; instead, he smiled and nodded, "It's good that it's not Fifth Brother."
"The Su Shou Tang has a bad reputation, so it's best to avoid getting involved with them. Otherwise, you might get into some unnecessary trouble."
The Fifth Prince naturally nodded and said, "That makes sense."
After saying this, he felt it was a pity: "Although I hate the people of Su Shou Tang very much, they are nothing compared to him and my third brother. It's not too late to deal with them after I inherit the throne."
The Seventh Prince smiled and said, "I'm relieved that Fifth Brother thinks that way. To achieve great things, one must not be bound by trivial matters. Being able to distinguish between primary and secondary tasks will make things easier for oneself."
"Seventh Brother should take you as his role model."
The Fifth Prince was very pleased to receive such flattery and couldn't help but praise the Seventh Prince in return.
The Seventh Prince smiled without speaking. His gaze swept over the messy ground around him, and he said considerately, "The matter is over. Fifth Brother, why don't you go back and rest first, and then we can figure out how to talk to Father tomorrow?"
"I'll take care of the chores here."
The Fifth Prince didn't stand on ceremony and nodded, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Seventh Brother."
"When I, your elder brother, finally take that position, you will naturally receive your share of the benefits."
The Seventh Prince said, "Then I congratulate Fifth Brother in advance on your wish coming true."
Soon, the number of people who had followed decreased by more than half, and all the archers on the rooftop withdrew.
The sound of dragging a corpse could be heard incessantly.
Although the sound was somewhat jarring, Wei Wei could still hear faint footsteps in it.
He walked towards her step by step.
She couldn't hold back any longer and looked up through the gap to gaze at the people outside.
The man who dismounted was dressed in magnificent clothes that I had never seen before, and he looked dignified and handsome.
He didn't speak, but just stared at her silently with his affectionate peach blossom eyes.
Of course, nothing could be seen, since only Wei Wei's eyes were visible.
Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere around them was far from relaxed.
Jiang Yu even felt a strange sense of oppression.
In this situation, the two people meet like this, and they can't even explain themselves.
Wei Wei probably hates him to no end right now.
Not only did they deceive her, they also played her for a fool!
He hadn't originally planned to meet her like this, but the situation was critical, and he had to step in to ensure her safety.
Even though there were many things I wanted to say to her, the words just wouldn't come out.
This kind of scene isn't really suitable for saying anything.
Finally, he could only silently move the corner of his mouth to tell her, "Wait for me."
Wei Wei blinked, it was unclear whether she understood or not.
After a while, the bodies on the street were removed, and the soldiers, armed with swords, began to clear away all the surrounding items.
This is their usual backup plan, just in case.
I'm afraid someone might be hiding inside and see something they shouldn't have.
Seeing that people were already coming this way, Jiang Yu turned around nimbly at that moment.
All the expressions that had just appeared on its face had disappeared.
In the end, only coldness remains.
"I've finished inspecting this area. You can move those bodies and leave now!"
The officers and soldiers, of course, had no objections.
Upon hearing this, he immediately turned around and called for everyone to evacuate the area.
The street finally quieted down, with only the leaves of the trees on both sides rustling in the wind.
Leng Pusheng had already come out from the corner and stood beside the stall, calling out with concern in his eyes, "Miss Wei."
Wei Wei didn't say anything. After quietly climbing out, she turned around and walked to the other side.
After walking for a while, she seemed to remember something and turned to look at Leng Pusheng: "Where are Xiaoyue'er and Xiaoqiao'er?"
She had originally thought his first words would be to question her about why she had been deceiving her for so long.
Unexpectedly, she became concerned about the two maids beside her.
But thinking about it, it's only natural, since they were the two people she cared about most.
Is the head of his household someone she cares about?
Leng Pusheng had no solution to this problem.
So he put the problem out of his mind and left it to his master to solve, saying in a very calm voice, "They have reached a safe place, Miss Wei, please rest assured."
Wei Wei finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Then let's hurry up and leave, things will soon get dangerous here."
What she said makes sense. With such a big incident happening here, the government will definitely have to step in.
