BXBX NOVEL Chapter 480 - 480 Who Else Could It Be?
“Damn it!” the old Emperor cursed as he slammed the memorial in his hands on the table.
“What about Prince De? Does he not know anything either?” he asked.
Others might not know what had happened, but Prince De would, right? He was a living being. How could he not know who had kidnapped him?
!!
“Prince De seems to have been… beaten up. He’s only shouting for revenge now, but when we ask him who did it, he has no idea.”
Eunuch Zheng looked at the old Emperor weakly.
Everyone knew that Prince De was the Emperor’s favorite prince. Not only was he kidnapped, but he was also beaten up.
This was a direct provocation to the Emperor. If he could recognize that, so could the Emperor.
The people he sent to the Prince De Residence had returned and reported that Prince De knew nothing. They said he was fishing when he was suddenly covered with a sack from behind.
After receiving a flurry of punches and kicks, he was kidnapped and sent back.
Prince De did not sound like he wanted to return at all. He wanted to continue having fun outside.
But Eunuch Zheng dared not report all of Prince De’s words to the Emperor. He made no mention of fishing.
What else could he do? Let the Emperor know that Prince De did not want to return?
The old Emperor slammed the table with one hand and instructed Eunuch Zheng, “Investigate it! Continue investigating! We must find out who is so bold as to attack Prince De!
“So what if I sent Prince De to the southern border? Daqing Kingdom is mine. How dare he attack Prince De? How dare he!”
These words implied that Qian Jiyun was the one who hit Prince De.
The corners of Eunuch Zheng’s mouth twitched.
The Emperor did not know that Prince De did not want to return. If he had known, he would not have thought that Qian Jiyun did it.
After all, having Prince De outside would be advantageous to Qian Jiyun. If Qian Jiyun knew where Prince De was, he would only send a few people to beat him up. He would not bring him back.
“Your Majesty, I don’t think Prince Zhan Yun did this.”
“Who else could it be?” the old Emperor retorted angrily.
Apart from Qian Jiyun, who else would dare to hit his son?
“Your Majesty, forgive me for being disrespectful, but will Prince Zhan Yun let Prince De return so easily?”
The old Emperor was stunned.
That’s right. If it’s really Qian Jiyun, will Prince De be able to return? I doubt I’ll even know where he died. Is it really someone else and not Qian Jiyun?
But who would want Prince De to go to the southern border and become enemies with Qian Jiyun? Who would send him back?
“Go and investigate it!” he instructed.
“Yes, Your Majesty,” Eunuch Zheng replied and left the imperial study.
He could investigate it, but Prince De’s cooperation was pivotal. What could he do if he encountered someone who refused to cooperate?
What could he investigate?
…
In the Prince De Residence…
Prince De returned, so furious that he did not know what to do.
He knew Qian Jiyun was the one who did all this. No one else could find him.
