Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Qin Zhenzhen was determined to discover if Chen Shanshan held any romantic interest in her fourth brother, and she had decided to enlist Su Ning’s assistance.

Su Ning and Chen Shanshan had a bond akin to that of biological sisters, making Su Ning the ideal confidante for probing into Chen Shanshan’s feelings.

However, before Qin Zhenzhen could seek out Su Ning, Su Ning herself approached her with a pressing matter.

“Third Sister-in-law, I need to ask you something,” Su Ning stated.

Qin Zhenzhen nodded, replying, “Feel free to ask. If I’m privy to the information, I’ll certainly share it with you.”

The question had been gnawing at Su Ning for quite some time, and she had been eager to broach the subject with her third sister-in-law.

“I overheard someone mention that the young man who was pursued in the provincial capital recently was the Third Prince. Is that true?” Su Ning inquired, her curiosity getting the better of her.

The revelation of the Third Prince being hunted in the provincial capital was no longer a well-kept secret. Even on the streets of Meijiang Prefecture City, it was a topic of widespread discussion.

Qin Zhenzhen responded truthfully, “Yes, it’s true. It’s no longer a hidden fact. The Third Prince sustained severe injuries, but thanks to your timely intervention in staunching the bleeding and providing first aid, his life was saved. He is currently recuperating at the Flying Cloud Tribe.”

She continued with another query, “Third Sister-in-law, I’ve also heard rumors that the governor of the provincial capital is a nefarious character. They say he conspired with remnants of the previous dynasty, the ones who sent assassins after the Third Prince. Is there any truth to this?”

Qin Zhenzhen nodded affirmatively. “From what I’ve heard, it’s true. In fact, Su Bin has received the latest updates. The emissaries from the emperor’s court have already discerned the governor of the Guang Mansion’s involvement with the remnants of the previous dynasty.”

They also uncovered that the governor’s forebear had served as a minister in the previous dynasty.

All the blame for these grave offenses would be squarely placed upon the governor.

His Highness the Crown Prince had managed to escape without incident, and thus, no harm had befallen him.

The act of assassinating a prince constituted a capital crime, and the governor and his brother’s actions had jeopardized their entire family.

Due to the remarkable military accomplishments of General Manor, the Emperor opted not to pursue any repercussions against it.

Similarly, he refrained from punishing the Master of the Flying Cloud Tribe,

Chen Yufei.

Nonetheless, once the imperial soldiers entered the Flying Cloud Tribe, they diligently conducted a three-day, three-night examination, ultimately confirming that all was in order. There were no indications of any illegal recruitment within the Flying Cloud Tribe, and the guards adhered to the regulations set forth by the Imperial Court.

Concurrently, the Emperor dispatched an imperial physician to the Flying Cloud Tribe to provide medical care for the Third Prince’s injuries..
