The counselor touched the mustache beside his mouth and said, "If you want to find an excuse for the second prince, you can start with this woman."

The prince pondered for a moment, "Please be more specific."

"My subordinates have checked this woman's information. She was bought by the second prince's men for him. She comes from an ordinary family and lives in the suburb of Alpha. Her father and mother are still alive at home, but her mother is in poor health and can be easily managed."

"Now that the Second Prince has received an order to go out and lead troops to fight, he has to pack his bags and set off again. It will be a week at least. Within this week, we can take action."

"Now my subordinates have sent people to keep an eye on this woman's parents. If the prince wants someone in the second emperor's womb, he can get in touch with that woman at any time."

"When the time comes, let her grit her teeth like a woman involved in an assassination case and put the matter on the second prince. It would be best if some lives are lost and there is no proof."

"The same thing happened twice. Even if Your Majesty doesn't take it seriously, you have to take it seriously. In this way, can the Second Prince still get out?"

The prince pondered for a moment, and a sinister light flashed in his eyes, and said, "This plan is feasible. This matter was originally done by the Second Prince's Mansion themselves, and they did not care about human life once or twice. Let them do it themselves."

It doesn’t matter if you eat the evil fruit, it won’t affect us anyway.”

As he said that, he waved his hand and said, "In that case, go ahead and make arrangements."

"I obey," the counselor promised and left.

After the matter was settled, the prince's complexion became much better.

"Now that the matter has been countermeasures, the prince does not have to worry anymore. He can just stay in the East Palace to handle government affairs. In this way, he can leave a good impression on His Majesty." The remaining advisers also gave their own suggestions.

After His Highness the Crown Prince was in a better mood, they dared to speak freely.

Regarding these innocuous suggestions, the prince accepted them all. Anyway, this was what he had already thought about and planned to do.

At this time, he was already feeling proud.

Haha, what if the second brother can lead troops to fight again?

From now on, when he inherits his father's throne, he will be nothing more than his minister.

Now I just want to focus on fighting for my own prestige. If I don't suppress him as soon as possible, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult to suppress him in the future.

What he is doing now is just to give him a good beating to make him understand how to behave as a minister.

…

…

Three days later, the entire Alpha became a hot topic of discussion after dinner because of a shocking piece of gossip.

"Have you heard? Another death occurred in the Second Prince's Mansion. This time it was a woman again."

"What, tell me quickly, did this cause another fatality? What happened?"

"Another woman was arrested. When she escaped, she was covered with injuries. She finally ran to the street and was arrested by the people sent by the second prince. But many people saw it at that time. Fortunately, the imperial capital was there at that time.

The captain of the national defense team happened to see him and rescued the person."

"Hey, it was so exciting. What happened next? Who was that woman? What happened?"

"Later, the injury on that woman's body was so serious that she refused to say anything when asked at first. Finally, in a daze, she revealed all the abuses the second prince had done to her. She also said that she was just an ordinary person, but her parents were all harmed by the second prince.

Due to the prince's threat, she had to become the second prince's woman, and she had to be tortured every day."

"This time she really couldn't stand it anymore. She felt that if she continued like this, she would die there sooner or later, so she begged a steward to let her go out for a while. Since she was always obedient, the steward felt pity for her.

Just let her out for a short while, and she finally seized the opportunity and ran out regardless."

The passers-by who heard this were shocked and said, "Don't you think this story is a bit similar to the story of the assassination at that time?"

"The comparison you make is really true. What a cruel and violent person this second prince is. He always commits murder."

"I'm afraid there are more than just these two. From what the woman said, it seems that except for her, all the other women are dead. She is the only one who is still alive and trying to escape."

"I really didn't expect that the second prince, who usually looks brave and humble, is actually such a person behind his back."

"Hey, nothing about the royal family is clean. It's just knowing people and knowing faces but not knowing what's going on. And what's terrifying about this matter is that it has been nearly five years since the last assassination. Over the years, these things have always been...

It never stopped, and no one knew about it until this woman escaped."

"When you say that, I get goosebumps. On average, a woman dies in a few days. What kind of terrifying existence is this Second Prince's Mansion? How many lives have been taken away over the years!"

"The key is that there has been no news about this matter for so many years. Isn't this just a living murder? Just because he is a descendant of the royal family, he can just kill people so casually? This is too much!"

"Where are the families of the deceased? Where are the parents and relatives of the women who died? No one is going to redress the grievances of those women who died in vain?"

"I can't see it. Maybe the matter has been suppressed. The other party is the Second Prince's Mansion! Even if an ordinary citizen wants to redress his grievances, he probably has no way to appeal in this huge imperial capital. How can they fight against the power of the Second Prince's Mansion?

contend?"

"I think what you just said is wrong. This incident is the biggest difference from the previous assassination cases. This time, it was not the second prince who was assassinated, but the second prince who tortured and killed a woman! This is his crime!"

Rumors spread far faster and more fiercely than any virus.

This incident was not only reported in Alpha, but within one day, it once again spread to the twenty-four habitable planets in the entire X Star Territory.

"Nonsense, this woman is full of nonsense!"

This time, it was the second prince who slapped the table. He was really angry.

In the past, he was indeed not very gentle in sexual matters, but those women came to his door willingly, and it was not like he didn't pay for them!

Compared to other people, his spending is already much more generous.

Now this woman has won his favor for the first time, and she is qualified to stay and serve him for a longer time.

If it were a normal woman with such a lowly status, he would no longer be interested after using her once. She would have been given away long ago. The hush money and confidentiality agreement had been settled long ago. How could she still get the chance to make irresponsible remarks?

Now he has mercifully kept this woman in his house and allowed her to serve her closely. She is just ungrateful and goes out to spread rumors!
