C88

It was midnight in the Crown Prince's Palace.

Just as Situ Xun was about to rest, a broken arrow suddenly shot in from outside the window, scaring him awake.

Situ Xun walked closer to the arrow, and discovered that there was a secret letter on the arrow, he immediately grabbed a pair of Sky Worm Silk Gloves on the table, and carefully pulled out the broken arrow, taking out the secret letter.

The more Situ Xun looked, the more frightened he became, and the more he looked, the more obvious the veins on his forehead were.

After reading that, Situ Xun immediately placed the secret letter on top of the candle, and in that moment, the letter turned into a few pieces of ashes. A breeze blew past, and in the blink of an eye, it disappeared without a trace.

"Father, ah, Father, since you're so heartless, then don't blame your son for being unjust!"

After Situ Xun muttered to himself for a while, he put on his clothes again and walked into the study.

Ah, Old Sixth, Old Sixth. He was truly a good person. He actually coaxed Imperial Father to hand over the military authority of the nine Sima Sects to him. He even gave him the key to the secret treasury.

Did they still have a Crown Prince in their eyes?

With the crown prince on the throne, he had actually allowed the other princes to wield the military and financial power of the capital. Wasn't this blatantly slapping him in the face?

When he thought back to how much importance Situ Ming had placed on him during this period of time, Situ Xun once again broke out in a cold sweat behind his back.

Thinking of this, Situ Xun became even more restless.

Situ Ming had always held all kinds of great authority in his hands and never gave him, the crown prince and his other brothers, any chance to display his talents. But now, he had actually handed over two important great powers to Situ Yu, even Situ Xun had felt a chill just thinking about it.

Didn't Situ Ming value Situ Yu? Then he must let him know right now that only Situ Xun was fit to be the crown prince and be the future emperor of Great Xia Kingdom.

"Zhang Prefecture, Zhang Xing."

"Here."

Situ Xun stood in the study room and only called out in a small voice. Two skinny black clothed men immediately knelt in front of him.

"The two of you, lead a team of elite soldiers each to Yu state, I …"

After Situ Xun finished his instructions, Zhang Prefecture Zhang Xing quickly disappeared from the study room, leaving the sneering Situ Xun standing in his original spot.

Although Situ Ming had never given him any power, he had held the position of Crown Prince for so many years.

He wanted to let Situ Yu see when using a weapon. He wanted to show Situ Yu that the authority of the crown prince was something that he could not easily think about.

At dawn, when Gu Shiyi had just fallen asleep and was in the midst of dreaming, a bone-piercing cold water was poured on her face, shocking her so much that she stood up from the ground.

Looking at Situ Yu who was standing outside the cell with a gloomy face, what was there that Gu Shiyi did not understand?

She only tidied up the clothes on her body, then followed Situ Yu into the Sky Prison's torture chamber.

The moment they entered the torture chamber, Situ Yu ordered someone to tie Gu Shiyi onto the torture rack, and then chased everyone away. Only Gu Shiyi and her were left in the torture chamber that was filled with all sorts of torture instruments.

"Shiyier, you have truly changed beyond my expectations."

Situ Yu stood one foot away from Gu Shiyi with a face full of heartache.

"Sixth Prince, are you planning to lynch me?"

Gu Shiyi did not directly answer Situ Yu's question, but asked back at him.

"Of course not, this is to prevent you from throwing out any more useless worms at me, so I had no choice but to come up with this plan."

Surprise flashed across Situ Yu's eyes. How could his Shiyier think of him in such a way?

Gu Shiyi scolded her and then said nothing more. Did Situ Yu really think that he could trap her like this? It was simply wishful thinking.

"Shiyier, you still haven't answered my question. When you looked at me in the past, you were really obsessed with it!"

Situ Yu still had a face full of heartache. When Gu Shiyi once admired him, he only wanted to take revenge, so when she clearly knew that Gu Shiyi liked him, she didn't say anything and kept on teasing her.

He was good to her, but he didn't give her any hope. However, when she started to hope for him, he hurt her heart so much that she wished she were dead.

Only in this way would he feel the pleasure of revenge.

However, only when he truly obtained revenge did he feel that everything was empty. Only then did he feel how important Gu Shiyi was to him.

Even when Gu Shiyi detonated the bomb on her body and died together with him, he actually laughed from the bottom of her heart.

But later on, he found out that he didn't die, but transmigrated onto the body of the Sixth Prince of Great Xia Kingdom, and this Sixth Prince's name, and even his appearance, looked exactly the same as him.

He was even thinking, since he did not die and had teleported here, then could Gu Shiyi be the same as him, here?

So in the first few days, he was fully focused on finding Gu Shiyi.

In the end, the Emperor did not disappoint those who had put in effort. He finally found out that there was an unfavoured Third Miss in the Prime Minister's Estate, who was also called Gu Shiyi.

He had originally wanted to leave the palace and directly look for Gu Shiyi, but the body that he had transmigrated into was extremely weak, and this Sixth Prince was not at all the emperor's to be happy about, to the point that the chances of him leaving the palace was very slim.

Therefore, he decided that his priority right now was to obtain power. Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to even take a single step forward.

In the end, he was finally given this opportunity. The borders were bustling with people, and the neighboring countries were also disturbing them from time to time. The emperor who was stationed at the borders sent out a prince to show his kindness.

However, when Situ Ming said this, not a single one of his brothers hesitated to go forward, only he walked forward resolutely. Such a great opportunity, it would be a pity if he did not grasp it firmly.

Because he took the initiative to accept the assignment, he also won a lot of goodwill from Situ Ming. However, on the day of the Phoenix Festival s, when the emperor was walking on the city wall with him, he saw Gu Shiyi.

He saw her effortlessly bring down a mama who was deliberately making things difficult for him. She was still that vindictive!

In order to verify his conjecture, he even arranged for the palace maid to lure Gu Shiyi to the Flower Garden, where very few people would come, and for a eunuch who did not have a shred of force to assassinate her. As expected, the final result did not disappoint him.

In fact, he had even arranged for Senior Servant Xin to lure her to the abandoned palace after the Phoenix Festival and use the cat to probe her.
