Jian Qingyu understood Gu Yanbei's concerns. How could an emperor not have the slightest suspicion towards his subjects? The same was true for her. However, because they were truly loyal to him, Emperor Tianchu would not have any bad thoughts towards them.

Within a few days, a dog-eat-dog situation began to emerge. No one would have thought that the people standing on the Sixth Prince's side would personally take action to step on the Sixth Prince's wife. It turned out that during the time when Jian Qingyu was away, something happened that she was not aware of.

"I sent someone to investigate, and it was Madam Chen who spread the news herself."

The Sixth Prince's wife frowned and said, "I had already issued a gag order at the time. After all, this incident happened at my birthday party. I'm not sure if my father would think too much about it. Who would have thought that Madam Chen would do this? What on earth was this stupid woman thinking?"

The Sixth Prince's wife was very angry at Madam Chen's behavior. She knew very well that the Second Prince's Mansion was now a taboo, but the matter had come to this point.

This matter could still be settled, but what made her angry was Madam Chen's attitude. She was just a dog kept by the Sixth Prince, but she didn't listen to her master and even bit him.

"Your Highness, do you think this is what Lord Chen meant? Otherwise, how dare Madam Chen do this? If this is really what I guessed, then Lord Chen's sincerity is questionable."

The Sixth Prince understood what the Sixth Prince's wife meant. "Lord Chen is still useful to me for the time being. Madam Chen's family is a great help. We must win over the couple."

I think Madam Chen probably did this because the Sixth Prince's wife had said something bad to her at the birthday banquet, which had lost her face. This led to this series of events. There is no doubt about the sincerity of Lord Chen.

"Your Highness can let bygones be bygones, but Lord Chen may not appreciate it. Madam Chen must be holding a grudge against me because of the birthday banquet, and Lord Chen dotes on his wife, so he must be somewhat resentful of Your Highness."

"This is inevitable. Everyone has a temper. We indeed did not consider this matter enough, but I also have my own difficulties. After all, it is I who disappointed people." He really should not do too much when it comes to the Second Prince's affairs, otherwise it would arouse his father's suspicion. It is understandable that Lord Chen is resentful.

"Your Highness always thinks of others, but they may not understand."

The Sixth Prince's eyes flashed with viciousness and dissatisfaction when he heard this. He could not leave the capital for the time being. His forces were all outside, and Lord Chen could not be abandoned for the time being. "It's okay. I will go there in person. I believe Lord Chen will understand how difficult it is for me. I will compensate him for all the suffering he has endured in the future."

Lord Chen is a neutral person among all the other lords and has nothing to do with either side. As for who he is in private, everyone has their own guesses, but they are just guesses after all and cannot be counted. Moreover, Lord Chen is his trump card and he does not want to expose it, but he has to do so now.

"Your Highness is kind-hearted. Lord Chen will certainly be grateful."

Although the Sixth Prince went to the Chen family under the pretext of the Sixth Prince's wife's birthday, any smart person would know that it was definitely not the case.

After all, this happened a few days ago. If we go back on it now, wouldn’t that be making things worse?

Therefore, when the Sixth Prince visited the Chen family, everyone who should know soon knew about it, naturally including Emperor Tianchu.

"Old Liu is really good at hiding his thoughts. I didn't even know that Lord Chen was actually involved with Old Six." I thought the person was Old Two, but it turned out to be Old Six's person. (End of this chapter)
