After regaining his senses, the Emperor asked Eunuch Li to invite Prime Minister Su over.
When Prime Minister Su came in and saw Butler Feng and Consort Rui, his heart skipped a beat. It seemed that they most likely knew that they were the ones who did what happened last night.
He had to be careful with his following words.
Thinking of this, he calmly stepped forward and said, “Greetings, Emperor…”
“Alright, get up. I ask of you, did you know that King Rui’s Residence was invaded last night?”
“I heard about it in court this morning.”
The Emperor looked at his calm face and cursed inwardly for being an old fox. It seemed it would be difficult to get anything out of his mouth today.
“Butler Feng said that those people are your subordinates. How do you explain this?”
“I’m innocent. That is King Rui’s Residence. Assassinating a member of the imperial family is a great crime that will result in execution for all nine generations.”
“It’s good that you know. I thought you didn’t know.”
“I fear for my innocence.” Prime Minister Su hurriedly bowed.
“I thought that Prime Minister Su was fearless.” After Sun Miaoke finished speaking, she looked at Butler Feng.
Butler Feng understood and directly handed him the ginkgo leaf mark he had carved out. “Prime Minister Su, you should be very familiar with this symbol. “King Rui has checked that this mark belongs to the Gingko Organization under Seventh Su.”
“Impossible; how could my seventh son have hired thugs? He must have been framed.”
Butler Feng was so angry that he wanted to laugh out loud.
At the same time, he had to admire Prime Minister Su’s acting skills. He was not inferior to those famous actors at all.
However, Butler Feng also knew that it was impossible to do anything with just this bit of evidence in his hands. As long as it served as a warning, Prime Minister Su would not dare casually strike again.
The rest could only wait for King Rui’s return to be dealt with.
Therefore, he could only say, “Since they’re not your men, then this old servant doesn’t need to worry about saving face.”
“Later on, my servant will throw the hundred over corpses in the manor into the wild to feed the crows.”
Prime Minister Su was furious, as saving those dumped corpses might blow their cover.
They would still suffer heavy losses if they chose to ignore the corpses.
What would the people under Seventh Su think if he didn’t save them? It would definitely greatly reduce Seventh Su’s prestige in his organization.
He have to inform his son as soon as possible and get him to appease his subordinates.
Thinking of this, he replied with a fake smile, “That is your right.”
When Uncle Feng saw this, he immediately retreated to the side.
Sun Miaoke stepped forward and bowed, saying, “Imperial Father, your daughter-in-law has troubled you. However, it’s easy to dodge an open arrow but hard to guard against a hidden one.
“I wonder if you can send an experienced nanny for me, as I’m terrified.”
The Emperor was stunned for a moment after hearing this. He had really never seen anyone take the initiative to ask him to arrange for people to enter their residence.
However, when he thought about her current situation, he could understand.
At least with the people in the palace around, whoever was planning to invade would have some scruples. He nodded and replied, “Sure, I’ll give you two nannies and four guards. They’ll return to the palace when King Rui returns.” “Thank you, Imperial Father. If you have no other instructions, I will take my leave.”
“Go, rest well. When you have time, go to the Empress Dowager’s place and talk to her.”
“Yes.” After Sun Miaole finished speaking, she nodded to Prime Minister Su expressionlessly and left with Butler Feng.
The Emperor then said to Prime Minister Su, “Prime Minister Su, you may leave as well. I hope that this matter has nothing to do with you.”
“I will humbly take my leave.” Prime Minister Su responded, bowed, and left.
After leaving, his expression changed as he strode out of the palace.
In the royal study, the Emperor called Xiao Heng and said, “Xiao Heng, do you know about the assassin organization called Gingko?”
