Ji Tianxing had been very anxious since Wushuang's accident.
But at such a critical moment, he had to remain calm.
Anger and irritation could not solve the problem, the most important thing was to think of a countermeasure.
On the way back to the capital, Ji Tianxing frowned and pondered.
As soon as they returned to the Changfeng Court, Ji Tianxing and the Third Prince entered the study to discuss countermeasures.
Two commanders of the Imperial Army followed them in, waiting for orders.
Originally, the Third Prince wanted Zhen Hong to rest and heal.
But she refused to rest and forced herself to enter the study to participate in the discussion.
Wushuang's kidnapping made her feel very guilty and self-reproachful.
At the same time, she felt that she had failed Ji Tianxing's trust and could not face Ji Tianxing.
Fortunately, Ji Tianxing did not reprimand her.
The secret room was dimly lit and the atmosphere was solemn and austere.
The Third Prince said in a low voice, "Two things happened tonight. First, the Second Prince invited Mister Tianxing to the Chengyang Court as a guest, but they were ambushed on the way back.
Immediately after, two Divine Monarchs invaded the Longwind Court, injured Zhen Hong, and kidnapped Young Miss Wushuang.
This Prince dares to conclude that these two matters are connected, and the other party has long planned this!
Inviting Mister Tianxing to the Chengyang Court was the first step of the plan, luring the tiger away from the mountain.
Sending people to infiltrate the Changfeng Court and kidnap Miss Wushuang was the second step of the plan. "
Hearing this, Ji Tianxing shook his head and said, "You mean, the main culprit is the Second Prince?"
The Third Prince said calmly, "I can't rule out this possibility. I don't dare to underestimate him at any time.
Moreover, he has the motive and the ability to plan such a scheme. "
Ji Tianxing shook his head again and said, "You're wrong! The king wants to appoint the Fifth Prince as the Crown Prince. You and the Second Prince have both lost. The Fifth Prince is the biggest winner.
At this critical moment, your and the Second Prince's common enemy is the Fifth Prince!
In order to fight for the position of Crown Prince and the king, the Second Prince has planned for so many years.
At this juncture, he can't even cooperate with you, so how can he deal with me and kidnap my daughter?
Is it more important to kill me? Or is it more important to seize the crown prince's position? "
The Third Prince immediately understood what he meant and said in a serious tone, "The Second Prince invited you to the banquet tonight because he wants you to persuade me to cooperate with him?
Do you mean that the Fifth Prince is the mastermind? "
"Of course!" Ji Tianxing said in a firm tone, "I don't know what methods he used to make the monarch make him the Crown Prince.
This was the decree of the monarch. As long as the monarch didn't pass away, it was basically a done deal.
Therefore, the Fifth Prince had already won and would soon become the Crown Prince.
At this time, what he wants to do the most is to take revenge and get rid of me, the thorn in his side! "
The third prince nodded in agreement. "That makes sense."
Ji Tianxing continued, "Besides, you, the Second Prince, and I all underestimated the Fifth Prince.
He must have planted spies in Changfeng Court to monitor our every move.
Therefore, he knew that my daughter was in Changfeng Courtyard and that I went to Chengyang Courtyard to attend the banquet.
This is an excellent opportunity for him, how could he let it go? "
Listening to his analysis, the Third Prince suddenly understood and nodded repeatedly. "Yes! That was most likely the case!
The Fifth Prince sent people to kill you. If the operation succeeded, he could frame the Second Prince, causing me and the Second Prince to turn against each other, and there would be no possibility of cooperation.
If the plan failed, the Fifth Prince would send two other monarchs to sneak into Changfeng Courtyard to kidnap Miss Wushuang.
In this way, they could use Miss Wushuang as a hostage to take the initiative and then find a way to deal with you! "
Ji Tianxing nodded slightly and said, "That's right! This is the Fifth Prince's plan to kill two birds with one stone. And it's one step after another, interlinked.
His goal is to get rid of me. Before he kills me, Wushuang should be safe.
Let's wait. It won't be long before they carry out the third step of the plan. "
The Third Prince nodded again and said in a dignified tone, "Next, he will send someone to send you a message, asking you to go to a certain place to see Miss Wushuang.
And that place, he has already set up a large number of troops and set up an inescapable net.
If you don't want anything to happen to Miss Wushuang, you must go to that place and walk into the net … "
Speaking of this, he sneered and said, "Then we will wait for his message. I will gather a large number of imperial guards and see what tricks he can play!"
Ji Tianxing glanced at him and asked, "Nominally, the imperial guards are the sword of the Monarch. You used a large number of imperial guards to help me deal with my private affairs.
Aren't you afraid that he will complain and the Monarch will punish you in anger? "
The Third Prince sneered and said, "The Monarch is about to appoint the Fifth Prince as the Crown Prince. I have already lost all my previous efforts. What is there to be afraid of?
Besides, the Fifth Prince sent people to Changfeng Courtyard to kidnap Miss Wushuang.
This is not just a public slap in my face.
This is simply … pressing my face to the ground and stepping on it!
He's already so deranged and lawless. Why should I care about feelings? "
Ji Tianxing nodded and said, "You are willing to help, which proves that I did not misjudge you.
But you still underestimate the Fifth Prince. He will not let us do as we wish. "
"Then I have to think about how to do it secretly and hide from his eyes and ears —" The Third Prince understood what he meant and nodded with a dignified expression.
Time quietly passed by.
Soon, an hour had passed.
It was dawn, the darkest time of the day.
At this time.
A messenger guard came to the door of the study and reported respectfully, "My Lord, someone just sent a secret letter to Young Master Tianhang to personally read!"
The eyes of Ji Tianxing, the Third Prince, and the others flickered as they gathered their focus.
"It's here!"
"Sure enough, it's as we expected."
The guard entered the study and handed the letter to Ji Tianxing.
Ji Tianxing picked up the letter, pulled out the letter paper and spread it on the desk.
There were two lines of bold and powerful words written on the letter paper.
"Seven in the morning, West Wind Town in the north.
If you don't want your daughter to lose her life, come alone.
Don't try to play tricks. You should be very clear that we have eyes everywhere in Royal City! "
The letter was very clear, and everyone read it at a glance.
The atmosphere in the secret room became heavy and solemn again.
The Third Prince frowned, full of worry. "You guessed right! He had long guessed that I would help you, so — —
Unfortunately, they also have eyes in Changfeng Courtyard.
Even if I quietly leave with the Imperial Army, I will most likely be discovered.
Young Master Tianxing, let me think of a way, how can I help you? "
Ji Tianxing casually shot out a flame, burning the letter to ashes, and said indifferently, "No need to think, I have a way."
