The Prime Minister Seduced Me to have Babies! Chapter 591: Used as a Cat’s Paw

The Crown Prince gritted his teeth, "Are you all dead?"

"Can’t you think of a way to feed him the dicine?"

"This is the only survivor, no matter what, make sure you watch him!"

The guard agreed and withdrew.

The Crown Prince was extrely frustrated, without evidence, he couldn’t bring down Prince Ping and Yan Beichen.

The Crown Prince paced the courtyard twice and said to the servant, "Go invite Mr. Yuan over."

Soon, an elder arrived.

Entering the study, the Crown Prince recounted the events from yesterday to today. Mr. Yuan stroked his beard, "In my opinion, perhaps, Your Highness, you are being used as a pawn."

The Crown Prince frowned, "What do you an by that?"

Mr. Yuan replied, "Since the assassin was a Death Warrior, how could he be so reckless, returning to the old lair even after knowing there were pursuers?"

The Crown Prince nodded slowly, "So, they intentionally led my guards to these two places?"

"I felt sothing was off about this, but Mr. Yuan has hit the nail on the head."

Mr. Yuan continued, "Perhaps the people at these two places were truly Yan Beichen’s n, as Your Highness said."

"These people might usually be working for Prince Ping."

"In this case, taking them down is also a good thing."

"The trouble is the lack of evidence!"

The Crown Prince narrowed his eyes, "If there’s no evidence, why not fabricate so?"

Mr. Yuan shook his head, "Absolutely not."

"Yan Beichen is extrely intelligent, and any fabricated testimony will have flaws. If he catches those flaws, it will allow him to escape from guilt."

"Unless the remaining survivor can really reveal sothing, but I think that’s unlikely."

The Crown Prince frowned, "Do we just let Prince Ping and Yan Beichen go for nothing?"

Mr. Yuan sighed, "Yan Beichen is difficult to deal with and favored by the Emperor; it’s inevitable."

"However, we could use this opportunity to plant a seed of doubt in the Emperor’s mind. Once the doubt grows, at the right mont, it will hit right on target."

The Crown Prince nodded again, pondered for a mont, and then said, "Then who do you think tried to assassinate ?"

Mr. Yuan shook his head, "It’s hard to say."

"Soone likely wanted to fra Yan Beichen. He has many enemies and many wish for his early death. There are too few clues to determine."

The Crown Prince frowned, "I must find the one using as a tool, or I will have no peace. This person really intended to assassinate ."

Mr. Yuan shook his head again, "Not necessarily. They might have just poisoned the sword to make it seem like the assassination attempt was real."

The Crown Prince’s face darkened, "But they were too ruthless. If it weren’t for Yu Er blocking the blade for voluntarily, I might be dead now."

Mr. Yuan clasped his hands, "Heaven will surely protect those who are virtuous, Your Highness."

The Crown Prince suddenly said, "Mr. Yuan, gunpowder was found in that castle. Do you think the second prince really intends to rebel?"

Mr. Yuan also looked serious, "Both sulfur and saltpeter are regulated materials, and the gunpowder formula is also confidential."

"Since they got gunpowder, their intentions surely aren’t small."

The Crown Prince narrowed his eyes, "Though I was used as a pawn this ti, the outco is indeed good."

"They lost so many of their Death Warriors at once, cultivating new ones isn’t sothing that can be done in a day or two."

Death Warriors need to have not only combat power but also loyalty, and loyalty isn’t easy to cultivate."

Mr. Yuan nodded slowly.
