Although the Crown Prince had deep roots, he always appeared weak and vulnerable in front of them, smiling broadly. But at this moment, when he was alone with the Crown Prince's signature smile, he suddenly felt a chill.
For the first time, he felt that beneath this tepid smile, there was an invisible black vortex with enormous energy that was sucking him in, from which he could not escape.
Taking a deep breath to suppress the panic in his heart, Qian Ye Ze defended himself, "Second brother, don't say you are the prince. You are always very good to me. I can't repay kindness with hatred. I will never harm you. Just like when you said just now that you didn't kill Murong Shan, I believed you. When doing anything, especially killing someone, there must be a motive!
If I had the same status and position as my eldest brother in the court, I might really give it a try. After all, I'm not too far from that position, and if I put in a good fight, I might still have a chance of victory. But above me, not only is my eldest brother a prince of noble status, but I also have my third brother and the fifth brother, princes who not only have higher status and position than me, but also have much better family backgrounds and wealth.
"Second brother, even if all the brothers came to assassinate you, I wouldn't be in any trouble! On the one hand, I can't overestimate my own abilities, and on the other hand, if I kill you, wouldn't I be making things easier for others?"
After listening to Qian Yeze's explanation, Qian Yeming nodded in understanding and said, "Old Four is right! Even if I die, you still have Old One, Old Three, and Old Five above you."
Qian Yeze nodded vigorously and was about to speak to express his agreement, but he heard Qian Yeming continue: "So don't you feel tired like this?"
With just one sentence, Qian Ye Ze and Murong Xue were almost frozen in place, unable to move.
Qian Yeming dared to say such things, it must be because they had some leverage in his hands. But Xi Niang was dead, so what leverage did he have in his hands?
Qian Ye Ze's mind began to quickly recall the whole thing. Unless Xi Niang was arrested, he would never have any evidence in his hands. But if Xi Niang was still alive, he would have handed her over to the emperor long ago. Why would he wait until now?
But……
Looking at Qian Yeming's damned tepid smile, Qian Yeze's heart tightened and his face suddenly turned ashen. Could it be that...
"The one-month deadline is almost up, and the eldest brother will soon pay a heavy price for his failed assassination attempt on the crown prince. Fourth brother, if someone spreads the word that the eldest brother is involved in this matter, what do you think, given the personalities of the eldest brother and Concubine Ling...how would you react?"
What? If a prince like him, with a poor background, no support from the court officials, and a mediocre family, were to assassinate the crown prince, he would definitely die a miserable death! Qian Yeze's face was ashen as a frown.
Although he was extremely frightened and had regretted it every moment in the past month, he absolutely could not admit it until things got to the worst possible point.
Qian Ye Ze smiled bitterly and said, "Second brother, among the princes, you and I have always had a good relationship. Why would you harm me like this..."
After hearing Qian Ye Ze's words, Qian Ye Ming smiled slightly, took a sip of tea slowly, and said gently, "It is precisely because we have a good relationship that I didn't hand the bridesmaid over to my father on the second day of the wedding, right? Tell me... if I handed the bridesmaid over to my father or my eldest brother right now, what would you do?"
