On the journey to Jinling, Prince Wei received the news that Zhao Yao was safe and sound, finally allowing the heavy stone in his heart to drop.
Yu Hai saw Prince Wei smile and quickly asked, "Your Highness, have you found the Tenth Prince?"
Prince Wei smiled and said, "Yes, we found him. Tenth Brother is safe and sound."
Yu Hai said with a look of joy, "That’s great, truly great." These past days, he has also been worried about the Tenth Prince’s safety. Now that he finally knows the Tenth Prince is safe, he can finally sleep well.
"Our people were still a step late. If Tenth Brother weren’t clever himself, by the ti our people found him, I’m afraid he would have already been thrown into the river to feed the fish." Although Zhao Yao was fine, Prince Wei was very dissatisfied with his people’s ability to handle matters.
"Your Highness, do you an the Tenth Prince escaped by himself, and it wasn’t our people who saved him?"
Prince Wei nodded: "Yes, Tenth Brother pretended to be poisoned and deceived Li Jue and the others."
Yu Hai exclaid, "The Tenth Prince deceived that Li Jue?"
"Didn’t Tenth Brother take the detoxification pills before?"
"So that’s it." Yu Hai suddenly understood, still very surprised, "The Tenth Prince actually deceived that Li Jue!" The Tenth Prince is sotis described as innocent and charming, and not-so-kindly as simple and foolish. Li Jue in Jinling is a figure who stirs up trouble, soone who even toys with the Crown Prince and Duke Zhen. It’s really unbelievable that the Tenth Prince deceived him!
"Li Jue underestimated Tenth Brother." Regarding Zhao Yao’s escape on his own, Prince Wei felt both heartache and pride, "Tenth Brother is not truly foolish; he just doesn’t want to be involved with us."
"When Li Jue finds out he was deceived by the Tenth Prince, wouldn’t he be furious?" Yu Hai was initially gleeful at the idea of Li Jue being deceived by Zhao Yao, but then he thought of Li Jue’s sinister and ruthless nature and couldn’t help but worry about Zhao Yao. "Your Highness, the Tenth Prince is in danger. If Li Jue finds him again, he will surely kill him."
Prince Wei squinted slightly, a cold glint in his eyes: "Li Jue will not find Tenth Brother."
"This ti our people will definitely protect the Tenth Prince well." The people over in Jinling were a step late in rescuing the Tenth Prince, which already displeased His Highness. If they fail to protect the Tenth Prince this ti, allowing him to be captured by Li Jue, His Highness will definitely not forgive them.
"If they fail to protect Tenth Brother, they should present their heads."
Yu Hai was frightened by the intimidating aura emanating from Prince Wei. He quickly changed the subject by asking, "Your Highness, should we notify Prince Chu now that the Tenth Prince is safe?"
"How to inform him?" ntioning Prince Chu, Prince Wei smirked and mocked, "He’s like a Bodhisattva crossing the river, struggling to protect himself."
"Your Highness, didn’t the Crown Prince and Prince Dai fail to find the real Prince Chu?" Yu Hai admired Prince Chu’s survival skills. "Maybe Prince Chu will soon arrive in Peng City."
"With Fourth’s skills, even if he arrives in Peng City, he will still hide his identity and traces." The Crown Prince’s people are a bunch of incompetents, not a match for Fourth Brother at all. It’s very difficult for them to catch Fourth Brother.
"Your Highness, what about Li Jue? He is not incompetent." Li Jue is extrely astute and resourceful. The Crown Prince has already instructed Li Jue to send people to look for Prince Chu.
"Li Jue has so skills, but the man is too arrogant, thinking he can manipulate everyone, including the emperor." Initially, Prince Wei had so admiration for Li Jue. The man was exceptionally intelligent, profoundly scheming, with cunning thods and a ruthless nature. However, Li Jue had crossed the line by recklessly abducting Zhao Yao and even attempting to kill him. Prince Wei now loathes him intensely. "In my eyes, he’s nothing more than a clown."
"Your Highness, why didn’t the emperor send soone to rescue the Tenth Prince?" He couldn’t believe the emperor was unaware of the Tenth Prince’s abduction. "A tiger, though fierce, does not eat its cubs. No matter how little the emperor cares for the Tenth Prince, he couldn’t just stand by and watch him die."
Thinking of this matter made Prince Wei extrely angry. He didn’t care if the emperor loved him or not, but he cared that the emperor did not care about Tenth Brother’s life or death.
"In Father Emperor’s heart, whether it’s I or Tenth Brother, we’re dispensable. He wouldn’t trouble himself for us. Even if we died, he wouldn’t even wrinkle his brow."
"The emperor is truly heartless." Yu Hai felt injustice on behalf of Prince Wei and Zhao Yao, "The Tenth Prince is still a child, not yet of age, and the emperor still so cold-hearted..."
"In Father Emperor’s eyes, all of us sons are nothing but pawns. No, Tenth Brother and I can’t even be considered as pawns." Prince Wei said with a face full of disdain.
