"Sixth Brother, what are you looking at?"
Yan Jue, who was a step slower than them, saw Yan Xiao staring at a certain direction in a daze and asked curiously.
Ever since the Kaiser had recovered, his mood also improved a lot.
He was not like the Sixth Brother who liked to hide his feelings like the Ninth Brother. In his eyes, it was better to cry and smile than to cry.
Yan Jue's voice interrupted Yan Xiao's train of thoughts, he retracted his gaze and shook his head, but he did not voice the doubts in his heart, "It's nothing, let's go."
On the other side, Yan Yuan followed the guard to the Sky Prison and stopped his footsteps, "Everyone is guarding outside, no one is allowed to come in."
"Yes."
The guards guarding the Sky Prison had all left, leaving only Yan Yuan and Wei Shao in the Sky Prison.
Wei Shao looked at Yan Yuan's approaching figure and suddenly sneered. Looking at Yan Yuan, he laughed: "I still haven't told you what the secret is, but Your Highness already called me out. Could it be that Your Highness can guess what I want to say?"
On Yan Yuan's face, it was hard to tell how he was feeling. His clear and cold eyes looked at Wei Shao emotionlessly, and he said: "Speak, why have you come to this king?"
Wei Shao saw that Yan Yuan was not the least bit angry, he let out a disappointed sigh and shook his head: "Your Highness is still as calm as ever, but I wonder, if the matter I mentioned had anything to do with Crown Princess Jing, will Your Highness still be so calm?"
As expected …
Yan Yuan frowned, without batting an eyelid, a cold light swept past his eyes, but he did not reveal it on his face. He even picked up a chair and sat in front of the cell.
"Tell me about it."
His fingertips carelessly knocked on the armrest of the chair in his hands as he looked at Wei Shao.
Wei Shao was unwilling. He didn't want to see Yan Yuan looking down on him like this after he had become a prisoner.
He was a little angry in his heart, but when he thought of the expression Yan Yuan would have when she heard his words, he became complacent.
"Does Your Highness know who arranged the assassination?"
Yan Yuan raised his eyebrow, he did not reply, and only indicated for him to continue.
Wei Shao did not keep him guessing and only looked at Yan Yuan with a funny face. He waited for to say the name out loud with a face full of disbelief.
"It's Liu Qian Xun."
He stared at Yan Yuan's face, trying to find a trace of shock on his face. However, he still sat there calmly, not even blinking his eyes, let alone hoping for Yan Yuan to stand up in shock.
From his initial doubt to seeing the smile that faintly flowed out of the corner of Yan Yuan's lips, the astonishment that appeared on Wei Shao's face turned into astonishment right after.
"Aren't you shocked at all?"
Yan Yuan stopped smiling and looked at Wei Shao sinisterly: "What are you so shocked about? This King knew about this long ago. "
This time, it was Wei Shao himself who was the most shocked.
He looked at Yan Yuan in disbelief, and only after a while did he manage to find his own voice, "You … "You know?"
Yan Yuan did not answer, but stared coldly at Wei Shao. Wei Shao felt as if his Qi had instantly been sucked out, and he stared at Yan Yuan, instantly understanding everything.
"You knew what I was going to say, so you sent those guards out?"
Yan Yuan smiled lightly, and considered to be tacit agreement.
"Aren't you afraid that I'll tell the Emperor about this?"
The smile on Yan Yuan's face became a little deeper. Looking at the expression in Wei Shao's eyes, it was filled with ridicule and disdain, "A despicable traitor who rebelled against the army, trying to frame Crown Princess Jing's master, do you think that anyone would believe him?"
Hearing this, Wei Shao's straight back bent in an instant. He had always been fearless because of holding onto that secret, and even after staying in prison for three months, he still believed that as long as he held onto this weakness of the Crown Princess Jing, he would still be able to keep his life.
But after a long time, he had actually forgotten that Yan Yuan was always a vicious and merciless person, and would not be threatened even more. It was just that he had never fallen into's hands, and had actually forgotten about this person's true nature.
He was actually able to calmly stand in front of him and listen to his words. He had already made his preparations for the future.
"Your Highness, there are two people who do not believe this kind of thing, but there will always be one or two people who will believe it. As long as someone believes it, even if it's just a rumor, someone will take it seriously after a long time. As long as it exists and someone takes it seriously, there will naturally be people who will investigate …"
Wei Shao laughed sinisterly, his gaze fixed on Yan Yuan's deep eyes that remained calm and collected. He tried to find a trace of panic in those eyes, but unfortunately, he did not.
Yan Yuan's eyes were filled with a thick layer of ice. Even though Wei Shao could not see any emotion on his face, he was still shocked by Wei Shao's words.
If Wei Shao had truly wrongly accused Liu Qian Xun, that would be fine too. But even if he were to investigate deeper, he would naturally not be able to discover anything.
But now, the situation was the opposite.
Liu Qian Xun was not only the mastermind behind the assassination attempt, he was also Mo Rong Tian's master. As long as they continued to investigate, high ranking figures in the Shen Ji Hall would definitely investigate Liu Qian Xun's background. At that time, Qing Er would definitely be implicated.
However, he still did not give up. After thinking for a moment, he said: "Prince, I, Wei, do not necessarily want to speak of this matter. As long as Your Highness can help me get out of prison, I will definitely not reveal the matter of Liu Qian Xun."
As soon as he said that, Yan Yuan suddenly laughed out loud. His gloomy and cold eyes were like a wild beast staring at its prey, causing Wei Shao's heart to tighten.
"Do you think This King will give you a chance to speak without thinking?"
Wei Shao's eyelids fiercely jumped, the corners of his mouth fiercely twitched, he abruptly raised his eyes to look at Yan Yuan, and said: "You want to kill me to silence you?"
Yan Yuan smiled and did not speak.
Wei Shao's eyes widened, and he suddenly jumped, tightly grabbing onto the door and shaking it, "Yan Yuan, you dare to kill me in front of the emperor?"
Yan Yuan still slanted his eyes as he looked at him with a cold smile, "Do you think this king doesn't have the ability to do so?"
Wei Shao was unable to answer because he knew that Yan Yuan had the capability to. However, he never expected that Yan Yuan would actually do such a thing for his wangfei's sake. It was truly because he firmly believed that Yan Yuan would not go against the laws of the country even if he was cruel and merciless.
However, he never expected that Yan Yuan would not even give him any chance to discuss it, he had already planned to silence him with the intent to kill.
If he had known earlier, Yan Yuan would not act according to common sense, and even if he were beaten to death, he would not have chosen to see Yan Yuan in this transaction.
