What exactly happened that year, in fact, not many people knew.
Feng Wuya knew because, on one or two occasions when the Prince was drunk, half-asleep and half-awake, he asked the Empress Dowager why she wanted him dead.
"So, was it really the Empress Dowager who wanted to kill him back then? Had she even made her move before the Imperial Family claimed that the Ninth Prince left the Imperial Family for the love of a beautiful woman, wandering the four seas?"
"That's right, in reality, the Ninth Prince had been fighting in wars since his youth, never once accompanied by a young maiden."
Feng Wuya looked at the distant figure and felt a sourness in his heart.
"The Ninth Prince rarely drank because he knew that alcohol could make him say the wrong things."
Chu Qianli also knew that Feng Dingchu was definitely not the kind of person who would indulge himself.
But this time, the blow was too great.
"Maybe it's because… the Empress Dowager is no longer here."
