"I didn't have a good relationship with him when I was little, so naturally I don't know what his personality is like."
Sheng Mingyu explained that he and the second prince were not friends.
"But don't worry about it. Didn't I tell you that he has a very powerful strategist behind him? He relies on this strategist for most of the time. Even after he sits on the throne, he can't do without him."
This is also why Sheng Mingyu looks down on the second prince so much.
Even though the emperor was partial to his son in the past few years, he still taught each of his sons a lot.
But he is so stupid that he can only rely on the people behind him. He is really despicable.
"Where are we going next? Should we go see the Imperial Master? What has he been doing lately?"
Gu Yunni nodded, somewhat understanding.
However, she was not curious about the second prince and was too lazy to ask more questions.
"He has been accompanying His Majesty in the palace recently. His Majesty relies on him, so you probably won't be able to see him for a while. Before you go to Jiangnan, I can let you meet him."
"good."
Sheng Mingyu did not tell Gu Yunni the truth. This was the task he had assigned to the national teacher.
The two did not delay any longer outside. Because of the horse collision incident, they were not planning to set off for the time being and could only return to the Prince's Mansion first.
As soon as I got back, I saw Jingzhao Yin waiting in the hall.
Sheng Mingyu was a little surprised that this adult was quite fast.
"Your Excellency, you have come here so quickly. Have you already found out the information? Why don't you tell me who is behind this? They actually dared to take my life. They have a deep hatred for me."
Jingzhao Yin looked embarrassed.
It's really hard to say anything about this person. Even though he is favored by His Majesty, he is not a worm in His Majesty's stomach, so naturally he doesn't know what is happening in the royal family.
"Your Highness, I have indeed found the person behind this, but..."
"Don't worry, sir. If you are truly someone of extraordinary status, and I cannot afford to offend you, then let's just leave it at that. I will not betray you."
Sheng Mingyu sat in the seat of honor and spoke politely.
But those who know him know that no matter who is behind it, he will make that person pay the price.
"good."
Jingzhao Yin still refused to speak, with a probing look in his eyes.
He knew that Sheng Mingyu was favored, but if compared with the royal princes, he was still a long way behind.
But he had already promised these, so he had to agree.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be the person behind the scenes who would pay the price, but he would be the one who would pay the price.
"In fact, it was done by someone behind His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince approved it. Prince, you must calm down. Compared to the Crown Prince, we are really nothing."
Jingzhao Yin tried to persuade him a few times, but he couldn't understand what the emperor was thinking.
The crown prince has clearly been deposed, so why is he still kept in Kyoto?
When Sheng Mingyu heard this, he suddenly laughed.
"Your Highness? He is now the Seventh Prince, not the Crown Prince. My Lord, you must control your mouth. You said it's okay in front of me, but if you say it in front of His Majesty, I'm afraid you will be punished."
If it were someone else, Sheng Mingyu might even be angry, but Sheng Mingyu really didn't take such a stupid prince seriously.
Even though he knows that he is at the end of his strength, he still keeps jumping around.
"And no matter who it is, if the emperor breaks the law, he will be punished just like any commoner. Even if he was once the crown prince, so what? Will Your Majesty still indulge him?"
Sheng Mingyu’s words made sense, but things were never calculated that way.
Jingzhao Yin sighed. He had always heard that these two people were constantly fighting. Now that they were together, he was really caught in the middle, which was very difficult.
"Then, Your Highness, what do you think we should do about this matter? I have already investigated everything I should have investigated and said everything I should have said. But if you ask me to arrest someone, I really don't dare."
"Don't worry, my lord. How could I possibly ask you to intervene in this matter? I will personally report this to His Majesty and let His Majesty make the decision. Furthermore, the Second Prince already knows about this matter and will not let me suffer in vain."
Jingzhao Yin was desperate and was shocked five or six times by Sheng Mingyu's words.
How come not only does His Majesty have the support behind him, but also the Second Prince? This Crown Prince is really different from before.
Following his conscience, Jingzhao Yin said one last sentence.
"Since His Royal Highness has a plan, I will not detain you here any longer. You should hurry up and tell His Majesty. The longer you delay, the more trouble you will cause."
He didn't know who to side with, but since it was related to His Majesty, he had to side with His Majesty.
After he said this, he bowed to Sheng Mingyu and Gu Yunni respectively and left.
He did respect Gu Yunni. Who didn't know what this prince was thinking? It was okay to offend him, but not to offend Gu Yunni.
Gu Yunni frowned as she heard this, somewhat disapproving.
"Do you really want to tell His Majesty about this? It's actually a small matter. If you bring it up in front of His Majesty, I'm afraid it will anger him again, and he will even think you are incompetent. Why don't we handle it behind his back?"
The emperor finally gave Sheng Mingyu hope. If he had to ask him to solve every little thing, he would probably be in trouble again.
"Why don't you say it? When we were young, he treated me badly. He always wanted me to take the lead in everything. Now that I'm used to taking the lead, I'm bullying me again. Isn't that his fault?"
There was resentment in Sheng Mingyu's tone. He knew that it was not the emperor's fault that he was taken away by mistake since childhood.
But he had never grown up with his parents, and he had suffered so much grievance in the prince's mansion. How could he possibly continue to suffer grievances?
"Okay! Since you've made up your mind, let's go to the palace together."
As soon as the two of them reached the gate of the Prince's Mansion, Marquis Changping rushed over as fast as he could, trying to pull them in.
The two were startled and didn't react.
When he saw who was in front of him, his face was filled with annoyance.
"When did you become so unmannered? I remember you used to be so gentle and polite. What happened today? Is someone chasing you from behind?"
"Yes, even the Marquis has to respect his status. The one standing before you is the Crown Prince, and the other is your former daughter. How on earth did you have the nerve to let us both in?"
Sheng Mingyu and Gu Yunni were not polite at all. Each of them said something that made the Marquis of Changping speechless.
He was so excited because he was too anxious.
"Isn't this Marquis here to talk to you two? I don't know where you're going. I thought it was a small matter, just a casual word, so I stopped you."
Marquis Changping was extremely embarrassed and stuttered when he spoke.
He now regrets agreeing to Du Changming's conditions. He becomes nervous when facing Sheng Mingyu and Gu Yunni. How can he talk?
"Okay! Since you have something to say, please just tell me. We have to go to the palace later and we don't have time to play house with you here. I can leave quickly after you finish speaking."
Sheng Mingyu also guessed something and wanted to see what else Du Changming could do behind the scenes.
Gu Yunni was still about to get angry. She didn't know why Sheng Mingyu changed so quickly. But she also knew how to cooperate.
