Chapter 291 Chu Ci's Decision
"My dear, the Queen said that the Emperor plans to make you the Junior Yin of Jingzhao Yin. Could this be another plot by the Second Prince?" As soon as Chu Ci saw Fan Jingrui, he hurried forward, his face full of worry, and spoke rapidly, "Isn't the Second Prince imprisoned? How could he still do so many weird things?"
Fan Jingrui looked puzzled and quickly stretched out his hand to signal, "Madam, wait, wait. How did you get the conclusion that the Second Prince was behind this? You can't just guess out of thin air. There must be a basis for this, right?"
Chu Ci then realized that she was so anxious that she had not yet told her husband the details of the news she heard in the palace.
She calmed herself down, took a deep breath, and immediately told him in detail why she entered the palace, how she communicated with the queen, what specific information she had obtained, and the deal she had reached with the queen.
Chu Ci then slowly said: "No matter what the reason is, hasn't the princess always been close to the King of Qi?"
"The Queen insisted that the person behind this was the eldest princess. How is this different from the second prince? Is there some hidden secret that we don't know yet?"
After Chu Ci finished speaking, he stared at Fan Jingrui closely, his eyes full of confusion and expectation, and he eagerly hoped to get an answer from Fan Jingrui.
Fan Jingrui gently held Chu Ci's hands and said gently, "My lady, don't be anxious. No matter who the real murderer behind this is, his purpose will not change after all."
"For now, we will just sit back and wait and see what happens. I believe that as long as we handle the situation carefully, we will be able to resolve the crisis."
Unexpectedly, Chu Ci rolled his eyes upon hearing this, frowned, and said dissatisfiedly: "Am I afraid of crisis? What I mean is, since the second prince has been exposed, why not just deal with him?"
"Without this carrier, those people with bad intentions will have no way to hide. But now, the situation is becoming more and more confusing and confusing."
Fan Jingrui was used to Chu Ci's frankness in front of him. "Madam, how could you think that those people who are used to hiding their true intentions only have the Second Prince as a shield?"
Chu Ci frowned slightly and retorted unconvincedly: "Husband, it's not the only one, but it's definitely the most convenient one."
Seeing Fan Jingrui remained silent, Chu Ci's eyes were sharp and his expression was serious, and he continued to analyze: "The Second Prince is the most active in the open, and he is also the easiest to be used as a cover by them.
"But if the Second Prince can no longer use this card, will they just sit there and wait for death?"
Without waiting for Fan Jingrui's response, Chu Ci said firmly: "No, those rats hiding in the dark will never give up."
"They will find another host. We can take this opportunity to follow the clues, find out the mastermind behind the scenes, and completely crush their conspiracy."
Fan Jingrui knew that Chu Ci's analysis was correct, but he still had to remind her solemnly and painfully: "My wife, the Second Prince is the emperor's son after all. Blood is thicker than water. Even if he makes a big mistake, the emperor may still think of the father-son relationship and have some concerns."
Chu Ci frowned tightly, looking distressed, "Is there really no other way?"
At this point, Chu Ci's eyes suddenly lit up, and he lowered his voice nervously and said, "My husband, if the Second Prince suddenly becomes unconscious, he can no longer participate in these conspiracies and can no longer be a mouthpiece and shield for those people."
Fan Jingrui immediately understood Chu Ci's meaning, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Although this plan is risky, if it succeeds, it will produce miraculous results."
"Those hiding in the dark won't be in a great state without this chess piece in the open, but they will definitely not be better off."
"They will definitely have to rearrange their plans, and during this period they will definitely reveal more clues. We will be able to better seize the opportunity, follow the clues, and catch them."
The more Fan Jingrui spoke, the more excited Chu Ci became. His eyes sparkled and his cheeks turned red.
She was really fed up with this kind of situation where she could be plotted against at any time. Although it would not cause her much actual harm, it was like a toad, which did not bite people but was annoying!
So, the extremely excited Chu Ci finally couldn't help but said, "Tonight, I plan to go to the Prince of Qi's Mansion. My husband, you can help cover for me outside. Should that be okay?"
Fan Jingrui originally wanted to stop Chu Ci's risky move. After all, if he was not careful, the consequences would be disastrous.
But when he thought of the terrible things that the Fan family had suffered, and the pain of being secretly plotted against, he swallowed the words that were about to stop them, and finally asked worriedly, "Are you sure no one will find out?"
Chu Ci said confidently: "Don't worry, when this thing was still a semi-finished product, I asked Mr. Bai to try it, and even an experienced doctor like him couldn't detect any clues."
"And now that the finished product has been completed, the effect has reached a new level. Husband, do you think there are many people in this capital whose medical skills far surpass those of Mr. Bai?"
After hearing this, Fan Jingrui thought for a moment and knew that Chu Ci had made up his mind, so he said, "Okay, I'll cover for you."
"But at most one hour. If my wife doesn't come back after one hour, for your safety, I will go to Feng Yan to find a way to ensure your safety."
Hearing this, Chu Ci carefully calculated the time and possible situations in his mind, and then readily agreed. "Okay, I'll listen to you. I will try my best to finish it within an hour and rush back."
So that night, the Second Prince was enjoying the fruits of his revenge in his mansion with great pride and happily planning his next conspiracy, immersed in the fantasy that he was about to succeed.
At this moment, Chu Ci appeared in front of him like a ghost, silently and vividly. The sudden figure instantly woke the second prince from his fantasy, and he was stunned.
The King of Qi was so shocked that he almost bit off his tongue.
"You, how did you get here? Come, there is..." Before he could utter the word "assassin", a shiny silver needle suddenly appeared in his mute point, making him unable to utter any sound. He could only stare with his eyes wide open in horror and make a "woohoo" sound in his throat.
At this moment, Chu Ci was like a cold-blooded villain, with a mocking smile on his face. "Let me guess what you were going to shout just now. It should be that there is an assassin. Let the guards outside come in and catch the assassin, right?"
"Don't bother. They've all been drugged, and they won't remember being drugged when they wake up. I carefully prepared this drug specifically to deal with self-righteous people like you."
