After regaining his senses, the Emperor asked Eunuch Li to invite Prime Minister Su over.
When Prime Minister Su came in and saw Butler Feng and Consort Rui, his heart skipped a beat. It seemed that they most likely knew that they were the ones who did what happened last night.
He had to be careful with his following words. This chapter was first shared on the Ñøv€lß1n platform.
Thinking of this, he calmly stepped forward and said, “Greetings, Emperor...”
“Alright, get up. I ask of you, did you know that King Rui’s Residence was invaded last night?”
“I heard about it in court this morning.”
The Emperor looked at his calm face and cursed inwardly for being an old fox. It seemed it would be difficult to get anything out of his mouth today.
“Butler Feng said that those people are your subordinates. How do you explain this?”
“I’m innocent. That is King Rui’s Residence. Assassinating a member of the imperial family is a great crime that will result in execution for all nine generations.”
“It’s good that you know. I thought you didn’t know.”
“I fear for my innocence.” Prime Minister Su hurriedly bowed.
Thinking of this, he replied with a fake smile, “That is your right.”
When Uncle Feng saw this, he immediately retreated to the side.
Sun Miaoke stepped forward and bowed, saying, “Imperial Father, your daughter-in-law has troubled you. However, it’s easy to dodge an open arrow but hard to guard against a hidden one.
“I wonder if you can send an experienced nanny for me, as I’m terrified.”
The Emperor was stunned for a moment after hearing this. He had really never seen anyone take the initiative to ask him to arrange for people to enter their residence.
However, when he thought about her current situation, he could understand.
At least with the people in the palace around, whoever was planning to invade would have some scruples. He nodded and replied, “Sure, I’ll give you two nannies and four guards. They’ll return to the palace when King Rui returns.” “Thank you, Imperial Father. If you have no other instructions, I will take my leave.”
“Go, rest well. When you have time, go to the Empress Dowager’s place and talk to her.”
“Yes.” After Sun Miaole finished speaking, she nodded to Prime Minister Su expressionlessly and left with Butler Feng.
The Emperor then said to Prime Minister Su, “Prime Minister Su, you may leave as well. I hope that this matter has nothing to do with you.”
“I will humbly take my leave.” Prime Minister Su responded, bowed, and left.
After leaving, his expression changed as he strode out of the palace.
In the royal study, the Emperor called Xiao Heng and said, “Xiao Heng, do you know about the assassin organization called Gingko?”
