The emperor was not a fool. The spy said so bluntly, what else does he not understand?

Although there was no evidence, from the spy’s words, the emperor can infer what happened.

Princess Fushou Zhang planned to kidnap Lin Chujiu with the help of the Northern Territory and the Zhang family. Lin Chujiu learned it in advance and used their plan to counterattack. It’s just he doesn’t know what method Lin Chujiu used.

The Zhang family took Princess Fushou Zhang because they thought she was Lin Chujiu. And they still didn’t know that they kidnapped the wrong person. They even sent someone to deliver a letter to Xiao Tianyao.

“Hmph…” After sorting out the matter, the emperor couldn’t help but sneer: “stop sneering, “Good, good, good, Lin Chujiu. You really are something. I misread you.”

The Emperor grabbed the ink brush on the table and held it tightly. The veins on the back of his hand bulged, showing that he was in a bad mood this time.

Lin Chujiu!

*Pa…* The emperor forcefully broke the brush in his hand, and looked at the spy kneeling down in front of him. Then, he said: “Get out!”

The spy didn’t dare to breathe at the moment and disappeared in a flash.

The Emperor sat motionless in the same place, the broken brush cut the skin of his palm. Blood oozed out, but the emperor seemed didn’t feel the pain. His eyes flashed with contempt… …

If there was no accident, Princess Fushou Zhang didn’t die, but she was kidnapped by the Zhang family.

There was no need to doubt this. The question now is, should he send someone to save her?

Save the people? He was not afraid of the Zhang Family, but he couldn’t afford to lose face.

Everything was done. Everyone thought that Princess Fushou Zhang died. If he rescues her, how he will explain it to the civil and military officials and the people?

Also, if he rescues her, it means that he knew about Princess Fushou Zhang and the Zhang family’s conspiracy, which also means directly tearing his face.

A small Zhang Family was not terrible, but the Central Empire behind him was terrifying.

Because of the bank affairs, the Central Empire was very dissatisfied with the East Country. If not because of this, the south will not intervene in a war between the east and north.

The Central Empire was waiting for him to cause trouble. So it is worthy to trouble again the Central Empire for the sake of one person?

Moreover, according to Princess Fushou Zhang’s temperament, she fell into the hands of the Zhang Family because of Lin Chujiu. She is bound to take revenge. At that time, she may be saved, but her reputation was destroyed, is it worth it?

Don’t save?

Princess Fushou Zhang was, after all, his imperial elder sister. He should protect her.

“This matter…” The emperor closed his eyes and opened his hand clenched into a fist, which led the broken brush to fall… …

“Come here!” The emperor thought over and over again and finally made a decision.

“Your highness!” It was the same spy. When he left, he only stayed on guard outside.

“Go, send someone to sneak into the cargo ship of Zhang’s family, and try to rescue the eldest princess.” The emperor still didn’t open his eyes, he gritted his teeth while he said ‘try’, but as soon as this word came out, the spy understood the emperor’s meaning… …

Try, meaning, the operation doesn’t necessarily need to be successful. As long as the emperor try, he won’t feel guilty about it in the future.

After solving a major event, the emperor had time to pay attention to his wounds. Seeing the bloody on his palm, the emperor summoned Imperial Doctor Qin.

Such a small injury, there was no need to summon Imperial Doctor Qin. But no one dares to question the emperor’s decision.

Imperial Doctor Qin hurriedly entered the palace and saw the emperor’s wound. After paying respect, he knelt beside the emperor, wiped clean the wound, and carefully bandaged it.
