The Third Prince noticed that he looked different, so he asked again, "Why are you here when you're not at home with your wife? Are you here to have a free meal?"

"You mean Yue'er isn't here with you?"

Wang Juan became anxious. Yue'er was not in the Third Prince's Mansion, so where did she go?

"Mrs. Wang hasn't gone home yet? She said before that she was going home. Did she go to the street to buy something?"

"Master Wang, please go back and have a look first. I'll have someone look for it here as well."

For some reason, the Third Prince felt that something had happened to Shen Yue.

"Okay! Thank you for your help, Third Prince."

Wang Juan was also a little flustered. He felt like he had lost something.

The Third Prince and Wang Juan gathered people to look for Shen Yue and even forgot to eat dinner.

In the secret cell of the Princess's Mansion, Shen Yue was tied to the rack.

In front of him were people dressed in black and wearing Rakshasa masks.

She could see that there were both men and women among them, and that they looked at Shen Yue with deep malice in their eyes.

"Who are you? What do you want to do?"

Shen Yue looked at them in fear, she felt that these people wanted to kill her.

"Put her down! Remember to take good care of her."

After the man finished speaking, he turned and left.

When she left the cell, she took off her mask and threw it to the ground.

Shen Yue saw the man's outline clearly, and seemed to have seen it somewhere before.

But she just couldn't remember where she had seen it.

She was put down, force-fed medicine, and thrown casually into the corner.

"Remember, don't let her die! Otherwise, you will suffer."

After the man finished speaking, he lowered his head and looked at Shen Yue, his eyes full of ridicule and disdain.

"Who are you? Why are you arresting me? Are you the same people who wiped out my entire Shen family?"

Shen Yue couldn't find the reason, nor did she understand why these people wanted to arrest her.

However, the people present did not answer. Instead, they dragged him into the dungeon and locked the door.

Shen Yue lay on the ground, her eyes filled with despair.

Liu Shuang changed her clothes and returned to the princess, saying, "I have invited the person here."

"Yeah. Don't hurt her."

The eldest princess played with the white jade chess pieces on the chessboard, her eyes wandering around, and finally put down a chess piece.

"I have confessed."

Liu Shuang nodded slightly. She didn't understand what the princess meant. Why did she want to capture Shen Yue and lock her up in the princess's mansion?

"Wang Juan is a descendant of the Qu family. He should take revenge for the Qu family as his own responsibility instead of indulging in women."

"Bring the matter of Shen's disappearance to the emperor, and make sure he confronts the emperor."

The eldest princess didn't care whether the Qu family would leave an heir or not, she just wanted to avenge the Qu family.

As a descendant of the Qu family, how could he not contribute but instead enjoy life?

"Yes! We have left traces of the Dragon Guards here."

Liushuang knew that Wang Juan was an intelligent man, so the traces must not be too obvious.

"Yeah. Go down!"

The eldest princess lowered her head and looked at the chess pieces on the table with a nostalgic look on her face.

She picked up a chess piece and looked at it in the sunlight again and again, with a smile on her lips, but tears fell.

When Tong Qiu gave it to him, he said, "After marriage, you have to play chess with me. If I lose, I will definitely be punished."

I asked him what the punishment was.

However, Tongqiu just smiled and said, "You will know when you marry me."

The eldest princess held the chess piece in her hand and cried.

Obviously I married him.

However, their wedding night was the day when Tongqiu and the entire Qu family were wiped out.

How can she not hate?

He clearly knew that he liked Qu Tongqiu so much, but in the end he found himself being charged with the crime of murdering Tongqiu's entire family.

"Tongqiu, wait a minute. I will send him and all his descendants down to make amends to you and the entire Qu family. When the time comes, I will come to find you. Please walk slowly."

As the princess thought about this, tears began to fall.

I miss Tongqiu so much, but I can't think about him openly.

The Third Prince and Wang Juan gathered in the Third Prince's mansion to discuss what happened to Shen Yue.

There was a look of cruelty in Wang Juan's eyes. He didn't expect that the emperor would attack Yue'er.

"Lord Wang, are you sure these are traces of the Dragon Guards?"

The third prince was unwilling to believe it and instead thought that it was his second brother who did it.

"Yes. I have been dealing with the Dragon Guards for many years, so I recognize their traces."

It was precisely because Wang Juan was too familiar with the situation that he felt disheartened.

He is obviously so loyal to the emperor.

But everything he asked for was destroyed by the emperor.

Just because he just needs an obedient dog.

"I know best how ruthless the emperor is."

Wang Juan smiled sarcastically. He once thought that the emperor was his father.

The deeper the love for yourself, the more strict you are with yourself.

Later, he found out that the emperor was the murderer of his father.

"But...it seems so."

The third prince thought about his own affairs and his second brother's affairs.

The prince wanted to assassinate him, but his second brother found a way to make him fake his death and escape.

But, what about father?

He said that he was very disappointed in himself and did not expect that he could not even withstand the slightest blow.

Haha, a little shock? He almost died on the way back to Beijing.

Later, who poisoned him?

My father never pursued the matter and even asked Eunuch Wang to come to the palace to scold me.

"This moon landing event may seem to have nothing to do with you, but it does have something to do with you."

Wang Juan knew what he was thinking and wanted to test whether the Second Prince was really useless.

So, there must be a plan.

Then, perhaps someone borrowed the Third Prince's manpower to deal with the fireball attack on the Moon Tower.

"Are you saying that there is a traitor among my people?"

Speaking of this, the third prince's eyes became fierce. These people were brought from Luzhou.

If they betray themselves, their uncle and others will also be implicated.

"Not necessarily! Maybe it was a false message. I will investigate this matter. I hope the Third Prince will also investigate himself and not be implicated in this matter."

Since we are facing the prince, we have no choice but to pin him to death and never give him a chance to jump again.

"Yeah, I got it."

The Third Prince is not a fool. He knows the importance of this matter. If it is confirmed that he was the one who did it, he will really die.

"I hope the Third Prince can help me find Yue'er's whereabouts. I will also erase the evidence that is unfavorable to you."

Shen Yue’s disappearance made Wang Juan and the third prince officially become allies.

For Shen Yue, Wang Juan officially confronted Emperor Dongqing.

The Minister of Revenue Shi Jing came to visit the Second Prince's residence, and the First Prince also came with him.

When guests came to his house, Zhou Hui invited them to eat, with a smile in his eyes.

"Second Prince, I am here to eat for free. I brought my own meat."

Shi Jing handed the meat to Xuean very skillfully.

Xue'an's mouth twitched. Who could have thought that the Minister of Revenue would come to give a gift and bring a piece of meat?

"This is what you are doing?"

The eldest prince was puzzled. What was this trick? Why were they delivering the meat?

"Free food. Big brother, do you want to eat with us?"

Zhou Hui had already prepared to eat hotpot today, and it was just right when Jing brought the meat over.
