Chapter 291 The Trouble Caused by the Throne
Situ Minghe was unsure whether to speak or not. Jia Daihua thought for a moment and then told him about what happened tonight, since he would find out eventually anyway.
Upon hearing this, Jia Zhen immediately got up to check on his brother. He had been inseparable from his brother all night, yet the bad guys had still managed to take advantage of the situation. Jia Zhen felt utterly useless. He had promised to protect his brother, but how could he have been drugged at such a crucial moment?
Jia Zhen was so anxious that he stood up, but he stood up too suddenly and was about to fall down because he had been drugged earlier.
Several people reached out to help, but Jia Daihua pulled his grandson to sit on the edge of the bed and said...
"Don't worry, Hu'er has been rescued and is now receiving medicine and acupuncture."
The servant had also been quite frightened that night, and had already cried. Now he quickly came over and squatted down to help Jia Zhen put on his shoes and coat, and finally tied on his cloak.
"Grandfather, let's go see my brother quickly."
Jia Zhen was in a hurry to leave.
Jia Daishan held Jia Zhen down and said to Situ Yi and the young prince:
"Thank you both for your help tonight. The Jia family will remember this kindness."
Jia Daihua also heard that it was Situ Yi's idea to set off fireworks to light up the way. In addition, he had been anxiously looking for his son and was also worried about Jia Zhen on the boat. The fact that the two of them had been taking care of Jia Zhen for him put his mind at ease.
Situ Yi smiled and said:
"Your Excellency, there's no need for such formalities. You've taken good care of Minghe along the way."
Jia Daihua laughed and said:
"Regardless, we should still express our gratitude. I will now take Zhen'er to see Hu'er. Your Highnesses have also had a long night, so why don't you go back and rest first? If anything happens, I will immediately send someone to inform you."
Situ Minghe pulled Jia Zhen aside and said:
"I'm also worried about my little brother Hu'er. I only caught a glimpse of him from afar. Now, my uncle and I will go with you to see him. After we've seen him, we can go rest."
"Investigate! Investigate thoroughly! Investigate everyone on the boat tonight, one by one. I refuse to believe he can sprout wings and fly away on this river. Investigate every single person who appeared on the boat tonight!"
If you can't find anything out, what use are you to me?
The Emperor slammed his hand on the table and said.
The emperor sent people to investigate one by one, but they found nothing. This made the emperor very angry. How could such a thing happen on his own imperial ship, and they still hadn't found anything.
The Emperor didn't need to wait for Jia Hu to wake up to ask; he already knew that this matter was aimed at Jia Hu, and that letting Jia Zhen go was a provocation!
The Emperor sat down and tapped the table with his finger, his anger barely contained. This was a show of force against him! A demonstration that they had the means to kill Jia Hu and Jia Zhen right here on the imperial ship.
As for why it was Jia Hu, the emperor initially thought of his own sons. Jia Hu was loyal to the Jia family, and the emperor knew that his sons had certainly tried to win him over, but they had not succeeded.
The Crown Prince has become quite close to Jia Hu's maternal grandfather's family, which may have aroused the envy of some people, who may have harbored ill intentions.
But he knew his son well; even if the man beside him had the desire, he wouldn't have the guts to do it.
The one most likely to arouse suspicion is Xiao Qi, who is going to set off fireworks tonight, but he doesn't think Xiao Qi is that stupid.
Ultimately, it all comes down to the throne. When he was ill, his sons fought over it. Now that he is getting better, let alone whether his sons can still sit still, the forces behind his sons are probably already restless.
