The Crown Prince frowned in deep thought, northbound? Why? If Prince Gong doesn't want his land, where else could he go? His titles and lands are his foundation. Not going to his land means he must have arrangements in other States.
Suddenly, he slapped the armrest of his chair, "Not good!"
"He's heading to the border!" The Crown Prince was greatly shocked. The border is not peaceful now. If Prince Gong's foundation is at the border, it would be troublesome.
"What? Your Highness! Why would he go to the border?" Shen Shikang was somewhat shocked, incredulously looking at the Crown Prince. When did Prince Gong quietly establish ties with the border?
"Go invite Prince Jing. Tell him I have important matters to discuss!" The Crown Prince's face looked very grim, his eyes filled with anger.
The border is indeed in chaos, there must be an internal traitor. Sending Gu Chengyu to the border is the best move.
