Sure enough, in the study room of the imperial government, the emperor found a secret passage with a lot of gold inside. Needless to say, this gold would naturally be put into the treasury.
However, with so much silver, where did Shangguan Xiong obtain it? The Emperor was puzzled by this point as well.
What made him even more confused was that the person who had come to expose him was one of the concubines of the Residence of Crown Prince. This was too illogical.
"Goldwing Consort, how did you know that the Shangguan Family had so much silver? As far as I know, you're the side princess of the Dingyang Estate, so you shouldn't be too familiar with the Shangguan Family. " The emperor's questioning caused the golden-flanked concubine to panic. She had come to the imperial palace as a last resort to report and report this matter.
Her safety could only be guaranteed if Shangguan Xiong had no other way out. As long as the silver was not in his hands, it had nothing to do with her at all.
"Your majesty, I also unintentionally knew this. Back then, Sir Shangguan had always wanted to marry our Prince. My Prince didn't agree, and for a moment, Sir Shangguan let slip his opinion as well." It was impossible to tell what she was thinking at all.
"So that's how it is. Then you don't have to worry. Since you've reported such a huge matter to me, I have a heavy reward for it." That's right, Shangguan Xiong is now locked up in the prison, waiting for his execution, you can rest assured. "
Another reason why the Gold-tailed Consort had come to the Imperial Palace today was to once again confirm with the Emperor where Shangguan Xiong was. When she heard that he was still in prison, she finally let out a sigh of relief.
But if he was in the prison, who would take the prince away? She could only think, this matter shouldn't alarm the Emperor.
Even if he found the prince, it would be related to him. But even if she did find him, she could have just pushed the blame to the person who took the prince away. This way, she wouldn't be able to find any clues related to her.
"There is no need for that, Your Majesty. Worrying about our country is something every one of us should do. "Since I've already found this silver, I will be leaving first." The golden-flanked consort was now even more certain that Shangguan Xiong's remaining faction had yet to be exterminated.
Although it was safe for her to stay with the emperor now, it was inevitable that they wouldn't hurt her so she had to hurry back and think of a plan.
Right now, the entire Residence of Crown Prince was in a different atmosphere. On the side of the House of Crown Prince, not only did they have to find a doctor to treat the crown prince, they also had to keep an eye on the movements of the imperial concubine.
As for the golden-side concubine, he naturally had to keep this secret of the prince's disappearance safe and sound. The only ones who knew about it were the golden-side concubine herself and the maidservant beside her.
There were spies on both sides, but the information was not very accurate. Those two brothers seemed to be people close to the golden-side consort, but in reality, they would privately report the whereabouts of the golden-side consort to her.
"Esteemed wangfei, the doctor said that you've been too tired in the last two days. You need to rest more." We'll take care of the prince's side. Don't worry, the people I've sent are all on the same side.
For the past two days, she'd been the one taking care of the prince because she'd been worried that the news had leaked. However, how could her weak body withstand it?
In addition to her overworked body, she was already on the verge of collapse. The mama who had been serving by the princess' side couldn't bear the thought of letting her rest for a while.
"In the end, I'm already old. Now I have the chance to be by his side, but my body doesn't hit." She still remembered that every time she saw the side of the prince, it was always Golden Princess. She was also envious today.
Now, it was finally his turn to take care of the prince. In the end, his body also needed someone to take care of him.
"Aiya, esteemed wangfei, don't speak nonsense." "As your master, of course you have to enjoy your blessings. Just wait for us to serve you." The mama had already arranged for someone to come out. The prince hadn't shown any signs of waking up recently, and the doctors all expressed concern.
She was planning for the worst. If she decided to continue taking care of the prince, her body wouldn't be able to take it.
If the prince really had the misfortune to leave by then, then the wangfei wouldn't be so exhausted that she would collapse as well, and only one would survive.
"Momo, do you think it's because I was naughty when I was young that the prince didn't want to see me?" In the last few days, he had been able to see the prince by his side every day, but he hadn't opened his eyes to look at her.
"No, Empress, Prince is just too tired." "Besides, our Empress is so gentle and virtuous, so why would the Prince turn his back on her even if he was happy?" The mama consoled the Empress. No matter what, she had watched over the wangfei since she was young. The mama and she were like family.
"Then why isn't he awake yet?" The longer we drag it out, the less likely we'll be able to wake up. "
So the Empress already knew! But there was no helping it, this was life. The prince still hasn't woken up yet. This was something that they couldn't do anything about, they were helpless to do anything.
The only thing he could do was to guard by his prince's side and wait for him to wake up. Strangely, there were no obvious wounds on the prince's body, but even after returning, he had been in a coma and showed no signs of waking up.
It was as if she was in a deep sleep. As she thought of this, the mama suddenly spoke up. "Empress, from what I see, our Prince isn't sick. Could he have been poisoned?" When I was young, I heard that there was a strange poison in the Western Regions that could make people unconscious. When I thought about the symptoms of the prince, I felt that it is extremely similar. "
Actually, the mama was only guessing, she just didn't want the wangfei to continue feeling so upset.
If he wasn't ill, then he guessed that it was possible that he had been poisoned. If he knew what poison it was, he would have just asked the doctor to study the antidote.
"Is what you said true? Get a doctor, quick! Get a doctor! " She didn't care about her body anymore and quickly called for the doctor.
If this line of thought was correct, it meant that someone was trying to harm the Prince. But who could be so ruthless?
There was still one more point that she still hadn't figured out yet. Why didn't the golden-faced consort find a doctor to treat the prince?
Could it be that she already knew that the prince had been poisoned and thus calling a doctor was useless? But why didn't he look for a doctor or an antidote?
Could it be that she had colluded with someone else? This made Dugu Wangfei very suspicious. If that was really the case, then the Mansion was too chaotic right now.
With regards to the power behind the golden-side consort, he would have to investigate it properly.
Of course, this could only be determined after the prince had awoken. Even now, she still firmly believed that the prince would definitely wake up!
"Doctor, how is it?"
