Chapter 1313: Chapter 1313: You’ll Still Be Unable to Escape Trouble!

"My lord, how can you remain so calm? Wu’er has been missing for days now!" Princess Consort Yi turned her head to glance at Prince Yi, her face entirely filled with urgency.

If reality would have allowed, she genuinely wanted to burst directly into Prince Mo’s Mansion to demand his return!

"What else can we do?"

Prince Yi retorted, did she expect him to become as frantic as an ant on a hot pot like her?

If that were the case, should they even bother to keep up this Prince Yi’s Mansion, and could they continue to stay here?

"Princess, worrying now is pointless; instead of that, we should calm down and think about how to get Wu’er back."

He said.

"Get him back?"

Princess Consort Yi was initially taken aback upon hearing his words.

But she quickly caught on, and she abruptly sat down on the chair beside Prince Yi, her earnest eyes staring intently at him.

"My lord, do you perhaps have a plan? Quickly, tell me, what should we do?"

"What can I possibly do?"

Prince Yi chuckled lightly and shook his head.

When it came to Sui Zimo, he truly couldn’t take any advantage.

Didn’t you see that even the Emperor and the Empress Dowager couldn’t gain the slightest favor from Sui Zimo?

"This matter is entirely the Emperor’s fault; as long as the envoy sent by our master comes to inquire, we just need to explain the whole situation clearly, and that should suffice."

As for the Emperor’s side, let others handle it; what does it have to do with them?

Hearing Prince Yi’s words, Princess Consort Yi nearly shattered her own silver teeth.

"How can it be that simple, my lord!"

If just explaining the situation could resolve everything, why would she be so anxious? Wouldn’t she be peacefully staying within Prince Yi’s Mansion as his consort, indifferent to whatever happened outside?

But if she truly disregarded the situation, and the master later placed blame, her allowing the Emperor to take Baiqing away so easily would be a grave offense!

At that point, their Prince Yi’s Mansion would inevitably face dire consequences!

"My lord, why don’t you understand? The master is someone who only looks at the outcome and never cares about the process.

Even if the entire fault for Wu’er’s disappearance lies with the Emperor, in our master’s eyes, we’re as culpable as the Emperor is, and if he truly gets angry, our fate will be far more dreadful than the Emperor’s!"

With the Emperor, it’s not so bad, after all, he is the ruler of Wei State, and the master would hold back somewhat due to this fact, not truly harming him.

But it’s different for us; I’m merely an insignificant subordinate by the master’s side, and Prince Yi is just a powerless noble. The master could use any means he likes to punish us!

Otherwise, why would I be so worried?

"We must think of a solution for this matter; we can certainly not rely on the Emperor, we must depend on ourselves!"

Counting on that fool of an Emperor, they’d never manage to take Baiqing back from Sui Zimo’s hands, not even if they waited forever; it’s better to rely on themselves!

"Then what should we do?"

Prince Yi asked her back, after all, that was Prince Mo’s Mansion, and one could imagine the level of its defenses without guessing.

"Could it be, are you suggesting we send someone to investigate Prince Mo’s Mansion?"

Besides, it was still uncertain whether Baiqing was even in Prince Mo’s Mansion anymore.

If he wasn’t there, and they went looking for him, if the people of Prince Mo’s Mansion didn’t discover them, then fine, but if they were caught red-handed, what face would Prince Yi’s Mansion have left?
