"Ah?" Xu Zun stood up from his chair in shock, "Who is it!!?"
It was impossible for Xu Zun not to react, because his purpose of going to sea this time was not just to find the prince.
The most important thing is to know whether the prince is related to Xuanmen.
Unexpectedly, the Crown Princess actually hit the point directly!
"Sir," the Crown Princess obviously did not expect such a reaction from Xu Zun, and immediately said, "What do you think? As long as you help me escape, I will tell you who that person is.
"Oh... no..." She shook her head slightly and said, "There is more than one, and I will tell you when the time comes!"
Li Ren...is it Li Ren?
Xu Zun almost blurted out, and then realized how unwise his gaffe was.
The Crown Princess is a smart woman, and her reaction will definitely make her realize her weakness.
However, the incident happened suddenly, and Xu Zun was really not prepared.
"Princess," Xu Zun immediately regained his composure and asked, "You just said that, do you know how serious a crime it is to have an affair with Xuanmen and rebel against the party?
"How do you know such an important thing?"
The Crown Princess smiled slightly and immediately understood that Xu Zun was trying to probe her.
However, this further shows that Xu Zun is very concerned about this information.
"The prince and I are a couple after all," the princess said, "I naturally heard about him having a secret meeting with someone at home.
"Every time they meet, they will chant some strange code words and slogans, which sounds very wrong!"
"Oh?" Xu Zun deliberately asked, "Really?"
"Of course it's true," the Crown Princess said, "Because of this, I live in fear every day. The Queen Mother has many eyes and ears. If she discovers it, I will also be implicated!
"But, in this case, I can't tell him clearly, it's really difficult!
"My lord, let me tell you the truth," the Crown Princess said, "the days after I left Daxuan and went on a mission to the East China Sea were the most relaxing times for me since I entered the palace.
"I want to live, I want to live freely, so," she looked at Xu Zun pleadingly, "please give me a way to survive! Don't worry, there will be no more Crown Princess, and no more Tian Jing."
"I will hide my name, live in the East China Sea, and never set foot in Daxuan again!"
well……
Xu Zun sighed in his heart, feeling that things were more complicated than he imagined.
Now that the Crown Princess has spoken out about Xuanmen, she has made up her mind and will not look back.
I wonder what her reaction will be when she learns about the catastrophe that occurred in the Holy City? Will she regret telling this secret?
"Okay!" Xu Zun felt that it was late, so he simply clasped his fists and said, "Princess, this matter is not trivial. Xu... needs to weigh it carefully."
"Okay," the Crown Princess said, "I still have ten days to go to Banshee Country. I hope you can give me an answer before arriving.
"Sir," she said suddenly with a gloomy expression, "I am not threatening you. If our deal cannot be reached, your situation will not be very good after returning to the Holy Capital."
"you!?"
Xu Zun stared, not expecting that she would threaten him.
However, after thinking for a few seconds, he felt relieved again.
Yes, this princess has a lot on her mind. After returning to Daxuan, even if she cannot protect herself, there are still many ways to drag herself into trouble.
This woman... is really hard to mess with, but... I quite like it, haha...
glutinous rice
"I understand," Xu Zun bowed and saluted, "I will definitely consider it carefully!"
After saying that, Xu Zun turned around and walked towards the door.
However, just as he was about to open the door, the Crown Princess stopped him again and said, "Master Xu, please don't think that I am alarmist!
"I can tell you responsibly that the Xuanmen spies are on this ship!"
"You!?" Xu Zun turned around and glared for the second time.
The Crown Princess's words obviously left him in great suspense and whetted his appetite.
However, this time, Xu Zun learned his lesson and asked casually, "Oh, so you are among those musicians and warriors?"
The reason why Xu Zun asked this question was because he wanted to rule it out. At least this Xuanmen spy was not from his side.
However, the shrewd Crown Princess was not fooled, but changed the topic and said:
"Don't ever think it's the captain," she said with her lips raised, "Shen Xingran is not a Xuanmen spy, he is the princess's wife!"
"..." Xu Zun was speechless for a moment and felt goosebumps all over his body.
"Shen Xingran has been following the prince since he was transferred from the Ministry of War," the princess said. "Although he is the son of the former minister of the Ministry of Justice, he has taken refuge with the princess. The princess sent him to monitor the prince."
"You..." Xu Zun was shocked in his heart, feeling more and more mysterious, but his face remained calm, "Do you have any basis for this?"
"This is not a secret at all, what basis do you need?" The princess said nonchalantly, "I'm just curious. All the soldiers and sailors on the ship died on that island. Why was he the only one who survived?"
"Then..." Xu Zun didn't want to delay here anymore, so he asked, "Does the Crown Princess have anything else to tell the subordinate?"
"Yes," the princess said without hesitation, "I advise you to avoid that sea area when looking for the prince. Aren't you afraid of encountering the sea monster again?"
"Okay!" Xu Zun hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "Please keep this in mind, sir!"
After saying that, Xu Zun hurriedly opened the door and came out without further delay.
"Sir, sir," Ani had been waiting outside the door. When she saw Xu Zun coming out, she hurriedly came up to him curiously and asked, "How are you? Why did the conversation take so long?"
"Ani," Xu Zun held Ani's shoulders and said very seriously, "listen to me, keep a close eye on this woman, and... try to talk to her as little as possible, and don't let her get into trouble.
Walk."
"Ah?" Ani looked tense, "What? Is there a problem?"
"Well, the problem is big!" Xu Zun frowned, feeling a little breathless.
"Okay," Ani nodded, "Don't worry!"
After coming out of the cabin, Xu Zun was inevitably worried.
In a short conversation, the Crown Princess revealed too much information to him.
The prince may have had an affair with Xuanmen. I wonder if he was instigated by Lushan Duke Li Ren? And he also revealed the secret room in Wanfu Palace?
Also, the Xuanmen spy is on the boat, who could it be? Apart from Shen Xingran, there are only the dancing girls and musicians.
Are Xuanmen spies among these people?
Or maybe, the Crown Princess just wants to create a sense of oppression for herself and force her to submit?
And...Shen Xingran!!!
If he is the princess, the princess... the most powerful person in the court must be Princess Ronghua?
Why did Princess Ronghua send people to monitor the prince?
Shen Xingran belongs to the princess, so... where is Shen Qian?
Also, is Shen Tiande's death... also related to Princess Ronghua?
