Chapter 1412: Chapter 1411: From now on, it’s up to him
Prince was so angry that his fingertips trembled, but at this moment, he truly couldn’t say anything more.
Even General Wen beside him quietly reminded him that it was indeed not suitable to interrupt at this time.
Interrupting would truly give an impression of guilt.
Prince could only take a deep breath, trying hard to calm himself down.
"Does the great royal uncle guarantee he won’t interrupt the court again?" Chu Qianli’s tone seemed to have softened.
Prince snorted coldly and said nothing.
Chu Qianli ignored him and looked at Gui Tong: "How much, in the end, does Chu Minghao know about that organization?"
"I am still investigating; naturally, the Crown Prince does not know much," Gui Tong immediately wanted to clear Chu Minghao of suspicion.
Chu Qianli asked again: "In this mysterious organization, there are extremely aggressive Undead. Does Chu Minghao know about this?"
Something flashed in Gui Tong’s eyes, and he immediately shook his head: "The Crown Prince knows nothing."
"Then why did he order you to investigate?"
"The Crown Prince just felt something was amiss. For the sake of the people, he decided to conduct a careful investigation."
"So was it that you found out about the mysterious organization only after stepping out? Chu Minghao knew nothing about this?" Chu Qianli raised an eyebrow.
Gui Tong quickly responded: "Yes, the Crown Prince knew nothing, only ordered me to investigate."
"Very well!" Chu Qianli raised her hand, "Summon Chu Minghao."
"How dare you!" Prince shouted angrily, "Haohao is gravely injured and still infirm, yet you, only a Princess, dare to dictate the situation in the court before the Emperor speaks!"
"Prince." Chu Jiangnan, who had been silent all along, spoke slowly, "I tasked Lili with investigating this matter; Lili has the authority to summon anyone."
Prince secretly gritted his teeth, not daring to speak further.
Yang Xun went down, and soon ordered people to carry Chu Minghao in.
The Prince Residence, though not far from the Imperial Palace, was not nearby! Coming and going always takes some time.
Yet unexpectedly, Yang Xun managed to "invite" the Crown Prince in less time than it takes to brew a cup of tea.
It was apparent that as soon as Prince left the Prince Residence, Chu Qianli’s people had already entered with the Imperial Decree to summon Chu Minghao.
"Haohao, Gui Tong took your..."
"Prince!" Chu Qianli suddenly shouted angrily.
Everyone was startled by her! Even Prince was taken aback, almost kneeling before her.
No one expected that she would use Inner Strength!
This deterrence was truly astonishing!
Prince was frightened and his words cut off midway!
Turning back, he glared at Chu Qianli: "You..."
What audacity! To make such a clamor in court!
Chu Qianli angrily said: "Prince, for the respect of you as the great royal uncle, I have given you face; otherwise, today Crown Prince would rightfully be a suspect too!"
"How dare you!"
"Shut up!" Chu Qianli rose suddenly, raising her hand.
Prince thought she was going to attack him, immediately sent out a palm in defense.
Unexpectedly, Chu Qianli’s target was actually Gui Tong kneeling on the side.
Gui Tong was completely unprepared and, caught off guard, felt his core disturbed by two rapid pulses, unable to stabilize.
Prince’s palm nearly came out, but he forcibly retracted it.
Almost injured his own heart meridian!
That damned crazy girl!
Chu Qianli again raised her hand, and with a thud, Gui Tong lay on the ground, unable even to speak.
He couldn’t move or speak; Chu Qianli intended to prevent him from communicating with the Crown Prince!
Next, it would depend entirely on the Prince!
Prince, you must give Crown Prince some hint!
