Chapter 157 Qian Renxue's Wrongdoings (Part Two)
After Miguel finished explaining the three major harms, he paused slightly. After thinking about it, Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong also had some understanding. After that, the mother and daughter used their eyes to tell Miguel that they wanted him to continue.
After giving everyone time to think, Miguel spoke again: "Firstly, the estrangement between father and son is easy to understand. Miss Qian Renxue, you should know that Emperor Xueye is not young this year. People born into royalty are less attached to family ties, but in their later years, they all start to cherish family ties. I ask you, after you killed two princes, did Emperor Xueye tell you, openly or secretly, that you should spare his youngest son, Xue Beng's, life?"
Upon hearing Miguel's words, Qian Renxue looked at him with suspicion and couldn't help but question him, "Do you have a spy planted next to me?"
Upon hearing Qian Renxue's words, Miguel scoffed, then said with a disdainful expression, "You can ask your mother. Before I awakened my martial soul at the age of six, I was just a commoner who barely had enough to eat. Where do you think I would have the energy to plant spies around you!"
Qian Renxue turned her gaze to her mother, Bibi Dong, who replied using a forced tone: "He was indeed a very ordinary commoner before he was six years old."
Qian Renxue didn't doubt Bibi Dong's words. At the same time, Qian Renxue suddenly remembered that when Emperor Xueye said these words to her, he shielded everyone around him. So, apart from Emperor Xueye, no one should know about this. So, did Miguel deduce this on his own, or did the god behind him tell him?
After thinking for a while, Qian Renxue couldn't come up with any useful information, so she asked, "How did you deduce that my father values family ties?"
"It's very simple. Emperor Xueye stood out from among all the princes back then, and naturally he couldn't avoid having his brothers' blood on his hands. Emperor Xueye had four princes in his lifetime, and he naturally knew that his four children couldn't escape the fate he had in his youth, killing each other to seize the supreme throne. But as a father, do you think he could bear to do that?"
However, for the sake of the stability of the Heavenly Dou Empire, he could only pretend not to know about the private situation of the four princes, thinking that he could delay as long as possible. But you shattered his illusions. Although you cleared some obstacles, you lost Emperor Xueye's affection for you.
Besides, although Emperor Xueye believes you will be a wise ruler after ascending the throne, and that the Heavenly Dou Empire's national strength may even surpass that of the Star Luo Empire under your leadership, Emperor Xueye's fear of you will also increase significantly. After all, with Emperor Xueye's wisdom, do you think he wouldn't know that you killed his own brother?
Furthermore, your methods were flawless, leaving not a single trace of evidence. Do you think Emperor Xueye, who knows the truth, shouldn't be wary of you? After all, who knows if someone capable of murdering their own brother might also eliminate their own father? I think you should know how Emperor Xueye obtained his throne, so do you think he shouldn't be on guard against you?”
"How did Emperor Xueye know that I plotted to kill two of his princes?"
"Even if you didn't leave any clues when you killed them, weren't you the one who benefited the most from their deaths? After all, everyone knows that Xue Beng was too young at the time and not capable of accomplishing anything!"
Upon hearing Miguel's words, Qian Renxue fell silent. Although Miguel's statement was merely speculation, it was likely the prevailing opinion. At this moment, Qian Renxue understood why Miguel would suggest she would become estranged from Emperor Xueye.
"Then how do you explain the second danger you mentioned, the enemy's concealment?"
