C878 Major Examination
Based on these rumors that were spreading in private and Lee Dachuan and I having come to a conclusion together, there is no doubt that someone inside is up to mischief.
After sending Lee Qingqiong away, I thought hard and couldn't come to a conclusion, so I didn't want to suspect the people I trusted the most.
Especially Soong Shaocheng. After these few days, I have already confided in him. I have let go of our past grudges and have a common goal.
Thus, I subconsciously excluded Soong Shaocheng, and the rest of the Wang Family.
The problem is that Wang Family is even more impossible, there's no need for us to go this far in our conflicts, and Wang Family has always been on our side from the beginning.
Wang Guorong? How could that brat have the guts to act so cowardly? It could not be so meticulous.
After that, I told Lee Dachuan about my thoughts. The two of us didn't know what to do and just stared at each other. We didn't even have the target of our suspicions.
"No matter what, there must be someone behind this. Moreover, they are hidden very deeply. Dachuan will secretly investigate, but the problem with the rumors will have to be solved by the Crown Prince himself." Lee Dachuan said.
On the same day, I held a collective assembly, gathering most of the clan elders and the younger generation.
After I was ready, I said: "In the past few days, there has been a rumor spreading internally, saying that I deliberately let Faang Dao go, and that I am a pickpocket, and even accused me of being in the water with my Luo Clan."
The moment my words left my mouth, the people around me all began to speak.
"Crown Prince, what are you saying? There aren't any rumors. You're overthinking it."
"That's right, that's right. There are no rumors. We know very well whether they are true or false."
"Crown Prince, don't think too much."
Since they said so, then it proved that they did.
So I simply continued: "Whether or not there is one, I have to clarify it again and again, maybe there are some people who are clear about it, but there are always people who are misled, so, let me tell everyone here, I did not let Faang Dao go, and it is also impossible for me to go through water with Luo Clan, I am the direct descendant of Li Family, it is impossible for me to go against the will of our ancestors, and it is impossible for me to do something so outrageous."
As the sound of his voice faded, many people chimed in.
I don't care if they really listened to me or just ignored me. At least a large portion of them trusted me, as long as I could suppress this rumor, it was enough.
After scanning the entire stadium, I first set my gaze on Wang Guorong. He was staring at him for a moment, but without a doubt, he was still the same as before.
Following that, I shifted my gaze away and looked in Soong Shaocheng's direction.
At this moment, Soong Shaocheng was sitting on a wheelchair with a smile on his face, as if he agreed with what I was doing. He even threw me a look, as if hinting to me that I should suppress this rumor.
I looked away, even more confused than before.
After the incident, the rumors finally subsided, but the situation seemed to have sunk into a cloud of doubt, making it impossible to see through its true nature.
Lee Dachuan was worried. Every day, he would run around secretly and bring out a lot of files to investigate in order to find out who this person was.
I didn't tell Lee Qi and the others, fearing that the person who was hiding would accidentally leak the secret, so the whole thing only Lee Dachuan and I knew.
After a few days of investigation, Lee Dachuan still couldn't find any clues. Every day during the routine reporting, his expression became more and more unsightly, as if he encountered a big problem.
At the same time, I became more and more curious as to who had the ability to hide themselves so well that it was even difficult to investigate in secret.
This person has to be found out, but what I fear the most is that this person is by my side.
Listening to Lee Dachuan's report, I looked at his face and thought back to Zhang Hui from many years ago.
If such a thing were to happen again, I would not know what kind of expression I would have. It would be too heartbreaking.
After finishing my report, I waved my hand and said, "Dachuan, let's continue investigating. Things aren't that simple, since the other party dared to spread the rumor, they will definitely expect me to investigate. I'm afraid that they have already made sufficient preparations.0
"But this person hasn't been found in a day. How can Dachuan not be anxious when there are unknown variables within the body?" Lee Dachuan asked.
I sighed and patted his shoulder, "Being anxious and unable to eat hot tofu, the more anxious you are, the more you will fall into his trap. This person must be extraordinary, not only did he hide himself very deeply, his methods are also quite brilliant. Otherwise, how could we not find him?"
"Crown Prince, let me say something unpleasant. What will you do if someone close to us turns traitor?" Lee Dachuan swallowed his saliva and asked in a deep voice.
Hearing this, my entire body immediately stiffened. This was the question that I didn't want to touch the most.
However, things had already come to this point. If they were really the people close to them, then they still had to accept reality.
Gently clenching my teeth and closing my eyes, I coldly replied, "If there really is a traitor, I will not show him any mercy. I will stand on the side of righteousness and eradicate him, because this is his own choice, and he will accept his fate."
At this point, I changed the subject, "But Dachuan, why are you asking this?"
"I'm afraid you'll be hesitant. Since you said so, I'm relieved. If you really can't do it, Dachuan will naturally do it for you." Lee Dachuan explained.
At this moment, Ye Wudao entered the door of the Crown Prince's Palace without a word. He walked to my side, took my hand, and said with a smile, "What are you two whispering about?"
"Uh, nothing." I pretended to shake my head.
Ye Wudao rolled his eyes at me, "I heard it from outside the door just now. This rumor is being fanned behind everyone's back, but your investigation is too passive."
"You have a plan?" I'm a little curious.
Ye Wudao said, "Not really, half of it. The other party obviously wants to destroy it from the inside, so naturally he needs a lot of power to do it without power, so there is no limit to the pursuit of power. You might as well make something similar to the selection, or put down a tempting position and the few people with the most outstanding performances can get it, which is the equivalent of luring a snake out of a hole. It's just that I don't know which snake it is, or at least it can exclude a lot of people, so it's better than what you guys are like now."
"You're right." I couldn't help but think.
Lee Dachuan immediately answered, "I think it's better this way. With one month of time, we can set up a position of authority, have a big assessment, and mobilize everyone, regardless of their status or seniority. Anyone can participate, and get a ranking based on their overall score and performance. This aspect will not only help promote talent, but also help focus the investigation."
