The prince suddenly said: "By the way, I remember one time, I brought two bottles of wine from Chen'er, and it was also from a family named Gu. Could it be Miss Gu's family?"

Xiao Yu nodded, "It's Miss Gu's house."

The prince narrowed his eyes. Top-quality wine and elixirs. Is this Miss Gu's origin really as discovered by a spy?

He thought for a long time before saying: "Yu'er, don't be anxious about this matter now, let your father think about it carefully."

Now the meaning of this son to him is not that simple, and the choice of the Crown Princess is also crucial.

Xiao Yu didn't say anything more. Being too eager is not a good thing.

He saluted and withdrew.

Xiao Yu guessed that his father might have gone to find Master Yin. He had the urge to leave the city and talk to Master Yin.

After thinking about it carefully, Xiao Yu suppressed his impulse. He didn't want to make things worse.

After Xiao Yu left, the prince sat in the study for a while and suddenly ordered his servants, "Go and call the eldest young master. I have something to see him."

The servant responded and went out.

Xiao Xuan came over in just a cup of tea.

The prince looked at his eldest son coming in from the door, with gentle eyes, very much like his beloved woman.

He smiled lightly and said, "Xuan'er, sit down."

Xiao Xuan lifted his robe and sat down, and the prince said calmly: "Your brother is back, did you know?"

Xiao Xuan lowered his eyes and said softly: "My son just returned home and I didn't know about it."

The prince stared at him without blinking, "Your brother just left me."

"He told me something. Someone spent hundreds of thousands of silver to buy his life in Ruyi Building."

"Along the way, he encountered four waves of killers and almost couldn't come back."

Xiao Xuan's clenched fist trembled slightly. His father specifically called him over. What did he mean by telling him this?

Could it be that you doubt him?

The corners of his lips couldn't help but twitch, "Dad, I wonder where this Ruyi Building is?"

The prince's lips curled up, "You don't know?"

Xiao Xuan stood up and said, "Aside from being busy with the fleet, my son rarely leaves the house. How could he know about the affairs of the world?"

The prince looked at him steadily, "I guess you don't know either."

"This Ruyi Building, as long as we accept the order, we will never give up until we achieve our goal."

"Xuan'er, tell me, what should we do?"

Xiao Xuan's face was full of anxiety, "I think if my brother goes out in the future, it would be better for my father to send more soldiers to my brother."

The prince looked at him and nodded slightly, "My son is right."

"When Hou Yuer goes out, I will ask him to bring three hundred personal guards with him."

He paused, "Xuan'er, who do you think wants your brother's life?"

Xiao Xuan lowered his eyes, "How could my son know this?"

"My younger brother is impulsive and domineering. It's unknown who he may have offended outside."

The prince nodded slowly, "That makes sense."

"I'm afraid this offends not ordinary people. Not everyone can get hundreds of thousands of silver."

"Not only does this man have a lot of money, but he is also very courageous. He even dares to kill Prince Qi!"

Xiao Xuan lowered his eyes and did not dare to answer. If he said too much, he would be wrong.

The prince suddenly fell silent and said nothing, just looking at Xiao Xuan standing in front of him.

After a long time, the prince said slowly: "Yu'er is my legitimate son, and he will inherit the title and the fiefdom in the future."

"I have great expectations for Yu'er. At the moment, I just hope that the killer of Ruyilou will stop here."

"If you persist in your stubbornness, then I can't tell you. Even if you pay a certain price, the Ruyi Tower will be destroyed by ashes."
