Chapter 210 Going Alone
Walking side by side on the path, neither of them made a sound.

The wind of early summer is blowing head-on, with a little warmth.

Her black hair fluttered and her skirt fluttered.

Walking to the gazebo by the pond, Qian Ling suddenly said, "Second Brother, would you like to go and have a sit?"

Qian Tianzong turned to look at her: "Okay."

The maid serving in the garden made tea for the two of them and then retreated.

"Ling'er wants to ask about His Highness the Crown Prince?" Qian Tianzong said with a smile, seemingly asking, but in fact there was a certainty in his words.

Being guessed its intention, Qian Ling was not surprised: "Second Brother, would you like to tell me?"

Qian Tianzong: "I want to hear your opinion first. In your eyes, what kind of person is His Highness the Crown Prince?"

"Cold—" Qian Lingqian sipped tea and continued, "I've only met this prince a few times, and judging from the few encounters, he looks cold.

"Perhaps because I am in the royal family, I have to use this coldness to disguise myself."

"Is there nothing else?" Qian Tianzong asked.

Qian Ling: "It's gone."

"After His Royal Highness was imprisoned, I went to see him secretly." Qian Tianzong stared at the girl thoughtfully, "But he doesn't seem to care about his own safety, but asked me an unimportant question .”

Qian Ling raised his eyebrows slightly: "Second brother looks at me like this, does that mean this problem is related to me?"

Qian Tianzong didn't show off, he nodded: "He asked, how is your injury? When will you return to the imperial city?"

"Second Brother, what does he mean?" Qian Ling asked.

"I asked him." Qian Tianzong said, "But he didn't say anything, he just told you not to come back soon."

Qian Ling: "What does he know?"

Qian Tianzong frowned slightly:

"Right now, His Royal Highness is grounded, and the third and sixth princes are all strong contenders for the crown prince.

"The natal families of the two princes are both the Shen family. Now among the major families, the Shen family is the only one, and their behavior is becoming more and more perverse. If this continues, it is not a good sign."

"Second Brother wants to save His Highness the Crown Prince?" Qian Ling asked.

Qian Tianzong: "Regardless of whether the prince can sit in that position or not, nothing will happen to him right now, so—"

He paused for a moment, and said with certainty: "Saved!"

This answer was within Qian Ling's expectations. Xia Mochen also said that the prince cannot be abolished yet.

Once Xia Ling's position as crown prince is lost, Tian Qi is bound to fall into fierce internal fighting.

Now that the border is at war, if the situation in the court is unstable, the morale of the army will also be unstable.

A vicious circle, if someone with a heart intervenes at this time, Tianqi may suffer incalculable results.

"Second brother, do you have a countermeasure?" Qian Ling asked.

Qian Tian shook his head: "Not at all."

Since the prince was grounded, he has not had much time to be idle.

The evidence is sufficient, and no loopholes can be found. To reverse the case, some people have no way to start.

Qian Ling was silent for a moment, then asked: "Second brother, have you ever gone to see the young master of the Ye family?"

"Young master of the Ye family?" Qian Tianzong asked, "Ye Yao?"

"Yeah." Qian Ling said, "And the young master from the General's Mansion."

After a pause, she continued: "These two were victims of the Guqulou case back then, so maybe we can get some clues from it."

"The man in the General's Mansion, I asked, but he hasn't seen the person behind the scenes." Qian Tianzong pondered, "As for the Ye family, I have thought about it, but the other party is not there every time I go."

"Really?" Qian Lingshou tapped on the table, thinking.

"You can look for Miss Ye Er."

Qian Tianzong: "Not here either."

Are you not there?
This is interesting.

"Second brother, have you ever thought about what would happen if Young Master Ye really saw his true colors, and the person behind the scenes was not His Highness the Crown Prince?"

"You mean—" Qian Tianzong made a hand gesture, "Kill people to kill them?"

Qian Ling: "So this Young Master Ye is an important person, and his safety needs to be guaranteed."

"I heard that Ye Yao is quite favored by the Ye family." Qian Tianzong said, "The Ye family should protect him well."

"Do you still remember the last time Young Master Ye was arrested?" Qian Ling said with a smile, "Back then there was only Miss Ye Er who cared about his life.

"Perhaps for Patriarch Ye, there is not one son, and the loss of a useless little one is harmless."

Qian Tianzong pondered for a moment: "What does Linger plan to do?"

Qian Ling: "If Young Master Ye is still safe now, what I can do is to bring him to a safe place before the truth comes to light.

"As for the rest, it depends on the second brother."

"Saving his life is already a great help." Qian Tianzong said, "If there is something wrong with His Royal Highness, then Ye Yao will be the most important witness."

"Later, I will find a way to go to Yefu." Qian Ling said.

Hearing this, Qian Tian frowned: "Are you going alone?"

Qian Ling: "Yes."

"No!" Qian Tianzong said disapprovingly, "This is too dangerous."

Her return was the target of everyone's attention. If she went out, she would undoubtedly expose herself to others.

Qian Ling raised his eyebrows: "Second Brother, does this mean you don't trust me?"

"This has nothing to do with trust." Qian Tianzong said solemnly, "The Sixth Prince has never let go of your thoughts. He once secretly threatened his father. If he doesn't marry you, then Eldest Brother will have to go to the border."

Hearing this, Qian Ling's expression became slightly restrained: "When did it happen?"

Qian Tianzong: "Three days ago, he gave father seven days to think about it."

"Brother, does he know?" Qian Ling asked.

"I know." Qian Tianzong nodded, "They didn't want me to tell you, but I think you should have the right to know."

Qian Ling smiled gratefully: "Thank you, Second Brother."

"I'm telling you to let you know what kind of situation we are in—" Qian Tianzong said, "It's not to let you take risks."

"Second brother, don't worry." Qian Ling took a sip of tea, "I know it well."

Qian Tianzong: "Naye Mansion——"

"I still have to go." Qian Ling interrupted him, "Since this is the case, Ye Yao's existence will be even more important."

"You can go—" Qian Tianzong paused, "but you must bring someone who can protect you."

Qian Ling raised his eyebrows: "Who does the second brother think is suitable?"

Qian Tianzong: "Jing Xu."

"So much trust in him?" Qian Ling was surprised.

Qian Tianzong nodded: "During the days when you went to the imperial city, he was very stable in his work, and his mind was flexible, and he was very adaptable in the face of emergencies."

Qian Ling was quite surprised by such a high evaluation.

"I know that second brother has good intentions, but I really have no intention of taking anyone there." Qian Ling didn't hide any more, "This time I'm going to Qianfu, I will sneak in secretly, it's not easy to do things with so many people."

Qian Ling paused, and said, "And Jing Xu's side, I have other things to entrust to him."
