My senior sister is not a human being!

A friend, not an enemy?

As he was thinking, Zhao Mingjing couldn't help but punch the wall. The Qinghe Marquis' Mansion had a separate network, and he really couldn't think of anyone else who could have leaked these photos except the 'big shot who shouldn't have been bumped into'.

Unfortunately, I can't contact Liu Shu now, and I can't go to the Marquis' Mansion to verify it now...

"Oh shit!"

Zhao Mingjing cursed softly. How come he hadn't even been in Haijin City for a day, but the situation that was originally under his control suddenly changed drastically?

In the office, listening to the sound of pounding on the wall coming from the corridor, Su Yuxi raised a smile at the corner of his mouth, and lightly sent a message to Shuangjiang: The second round of public opinion war has begun.

……

Streets of Haijin City.

Xia Yushuang, who was holding Su Yuchen's arm, was wearing a black long skirt. Her figure was exquisitely slender against the soft texture of the slightly shiny silk fabric, which added to her sexiness. The lace embroidery on the edge of the neckline shaded her fair skin, presenting a hazy visual temptation.

The hem of her skirt is embroidered with delicate lotus patterns, exuding a pure aura that is untainted by the mud. Combined with the gently swaying hem, it adds a touch of gorgeous color to her sexiness.

Under the skirt, the beautiful legs wrapped in flesh-colored stockings moved slightly, like ripples of winter snow blown by the cold wind.

She was wearing a black coat and turned her head to look at the military vehicles and police cars whizzing by in the middle of the road. She said softly, "Are we going to the Qinghe Marquis' Mansion?"

"Yeah." Su Yuchen nodded, but his eyes were fixed on the lace hem of her long skirt that was higher than her collarbone. Although he couldn't see anything, the lace that matched her fair skin was enough to make him unable to take his eyes away... He couldn't get enough of looking at it all the way.

A smile flashed across Xia Yushuang's eyes, and she asked again, "Does this skirt look good?"

"How many dresses did you buy without telling me?" Su Yuchen asked with a smile.

"A lot~" She chuckled in her black high-heeled boots, "I'll be wearing school uniforms when I get back to school, so I'll wear more now to show you."

"And I'm not afraid of the cold, I can wear summer skirts now."

"That's right." Su Yuchen nodded: "But now I'm wearing summer clothes. What should I wear in summer?"

"What do you want me to wear?" Xia Yushuang blinked: "The Emperor's New Clothes?"

"Well... although I never get tired of looking at the emperor's new clothes, the hazy feeling of temptation is better." Su Yuchen said in a knowledgeable manner.

"Then I'll use your shirt as my summer home wear~" Xia Yushuang pinched his arm: "How about it?"

"Okay."

"It's settled then." Xia Yushuang smiled, the charm exuding from her cold face was extremely alluring.

Su Yuchen couldn't help but kiss her lips, then with great willpower he turned his eyes away from her face and looked at the military and police vehicles on the road: "Next is the second wave of public opinion offensive."

"Speaking of this." Xia Yushuang raised her right hand and put her hair behind her ear: "The Xuanqing Empire was established 291 years ago, but it collapsed in a matter of days."

"Hasn't it been the same in every dynasty?" Su Yuchen exhaled a puff of hot mist. "And this is just the last straw that breaks the camel's back. The cancer cells will slowly spread throughout the body."

After a pause, Su Yuchen continued, "Correction, the Xuanqing Empire will not be 291 years old until January 24th."

"January 24th..." Xia Yushuang thought for a moment: "The eve of New Year's Eve."

"Yes." Su Yuchen nodded: "The empire's annual grand court meeting will be on January 22nd."

"Then will you take action?" Xia Yushuang blinked.

"Promise the president to return to school the day after tomorrow." Su Yuchen smiled: "These two days will only make the imperial family lose the support of the people. During this period of time, all kinds of monsters will definitely emerge to compete for the throne of 'what if'. So although Yuxi is smart, he also needs time to think of countermeasures."

"It just so happens that it was winter vacation at that time, so I got this matter done thoroughly."

"Who are you going to take home?"

"Bring them all." Su Yuchen said honestly. At that time, he believed that he had completely conquered Jiang Shengyue.

As for Mu Lingyan... she is of course welcome to come, but if she doesn't come...

Su Yuchen didn't know what he was thinking about, but then he realized that Mu Lingyan would definitely come!

"Going to your house?" Xia Yushuang asked with a smile.

"My house is pretty big, right?" Su Yuchen chuckled, "My small building can easily accommodate us."

"Are we having a party?" Xia Yushuang's voice was a little coquettish: "Want to play the upgraded version of the 'spin the bottle' game on Christmas Eve?"

"I'll think about it..." Su Yuchen swallowed and wanted to be reserved in front of Xia's mother.

"Okay." Xia Yushuang smiled gently: "I'll make preparations, and then we can stay up together on New Year's Eve."

"Since you said so, let's do as you say." Su Yuchen smiled implicitly: "Whatever you say is what goes on at home."

"No problem." Xia Yushuang hugged Su Yuchen's arm tighter: "But it's still early now. I will think carefully with Xiyu about what to play and how to play it then."

When she mentioned Xiyu, Su Yuchen knew that New Year's Eve would be very exciting, and now he was looking forward to it...

"Look, look at the news, the top news!"

Suddenly, someone waved a cell phone and shouted, "Super explosive news, news about the truth of the Haijin tragedy, and also, explosive news related to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

First comes one person's voice, then comes the second person's news, then the third, the fourth...

More and more people are looking at their phones.

Su Yuchen stopped where he was. Xia Yushuang tilted her head and looked at him: "Do you want to see it?"

"I won't read it anymore." Su Yuchen certainly knew what the news was about, and there was no need for him to read it.

"Sister Yu Shuang, if the imperial family wants to break the impasse, there is only one way, which is to kill Dai Ming." Su Yuchen looked up at the gloomy sky: "Killing Dai Ming will not only demonstrate the strength of the imperial family and its determination to solve the Haijin tragedy, but also gather the hearts of the people again."

"Shall we go and kill Dai Ming?" Xia Yushuang asked.

"Yes." Su Yuchen narrowed his eyes slightly: "Following the order of Princess Chang'an, I will kill Dai Ming and expose the truth."

Su Yuchen exhaled lightly: "Completely break with the imperial family."

Chapter 526 As long as I become the emperor, I can order my brother to do anything... on the dragon throne.

At 2:30 p.m., press conference was held in the conference room of the Haijin Municipal Administrative Building.

"Mayor Zhong, what are the two pieces of news that are being spread by the news media? Did Sunahara really kill Menba and the others to silence them? Why did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince disguise himself to meet the Demon King Daiming?"

Zhong Hanfeng, who was sitting in the center seat waiting for the reporters to finish their questions, said calmly, "After the task force arrived, we quickly got accurate information. Whether it was the welfare home where this incident occurred or other missing cases, they were all related to the Qinghe Marquisate."

"We do have evidence of the collaboration between Qinghe Hou Liu Shu and Menbo. Although Sunahara is not among them, we have reason to believe that Sunahara is one of the people behind it."

"Because Demon King Dai Ming's strength and status among the demon kings are stronger and higher than the demon kings behind Menbo and the others."

"Mayor Zhong." Another reporter asked directly: "You just said that the case has progressed since the task force arrived. Can you please elaborate?"

Zhong Hanfeng smiled slightly: "If it weren't for the special case team leader, Director Chang'an, we wouldn't have been able to get so many clues in such a short time."

"We acknowledge Princess Chang'an's achievements in the economy. So, is Her Royal Highness also good at solving cases?"

"No, she is not good at it." Zhong Hanfeng shook his head, but then changed the subject: "But she has been in charge of Chang'an in the northern border for a long time, so she is best at dealing with the Demon King."

"The seven demon kings of the Seven Corners Alliance have not been able to go south yet. Can the demon king Dai Ming fight seven of them alone? So he is naturally no match for Her Royal Highness the Princess."

"Mayor Zhong, if it weren't for Princess Chang'an, the Haijin City officials would have no way of solving the case, is that right?"

Facing the reporter's sharp questions, Zhong Hanfeng said calmly: "It was our Haijin City officials who identified Qinghe Hou and Menbo as the murderers, and it was Her Royal Highness the Princess who found the evidence. The two complement each other."

"Then may I ask Mayor Zhong, who do you think has a greater role?"

"Princess Chang'an." Zhong Hanfeng said without hesitation: "I admit that the Haijin City officials were weak and compromised in handling this matter, because we really do not have the strength to face a demon king."

"Mayor Zhong, as everyone knows, Chang'an has always been the leader of the royalist party. Now that there is such a scandal in the imperial family, is Chang'an really not involved?"

"I believe not!" Zhong Hanfeng said in a resounding voice: "I believe that Chang'an State is not aware of the actions of the imperial family. I also believe that Chang'an State will continue to show the choice and determination that the people will believe in!"

"Finally, may I ask Mayor Zhong, is all of this really the work of the imperial family?"

"The evidence is in the Qinghe Marquis Mansion!"

……

The office of Zhao Mingjing, deputy head of the special task force of the Anti-Demon Inquisition.

boom!

Zhao Mingjing was about to roar to vent his anger after watching the press conference when the door was pushed open with a bang, forcing him to swallow back the sound that was about to come out of his throat.

When he saw clearly that it was Su Yuxi who walked in, Zhao Mingjing could hardly hide the murderous intent on his face: "You..."

Just as he was about to ask, he was choked back by Su Yuxi's voice the next second: "Have I ever told you not to meet Dai Ming at this time? How many times have I emphasized this? You said it's okay?"

"Look at you now?" Su Yuxi walked to his desk and slapped it hard: "You've been followed the whole time. Your disguise is a joke!"

Looking at the angry Su Yuxi, Zhao Mingjing was stunned. She and the cabinet teamed up to deceive the imperial family, why is she here pretending to be a good person? !

"Su Yuxi!" Zhao Mingjing said with a gloomy face: "Don't you have anything to explain before questioning me?"

"Explain?" Su Yuxi looked at him expressionlessly: "What do I need to explain?"

"Press conference!" Zhao Mingjing leaned back in his chair. "Zhong Hanfeng keeps saying Princess Chang'an on his left and the Kingdom of Chang'an on his right... I never expected that you would have been secretly colluding with the cabinet for a long time, and turned around and stabbed me in the back in this case..."

"Bullshit!" Su Yuxi cursed directly, "I've only been here for a few days. What ability do I have to investigate the Qinghe Marquis' Mansion? Zhao Mingjing, are you a fucking idiot? Can't you see that the cabinet is putting Chang'an on the fire?!"

Zhao Mingjing was stunned, and then he heard Su Yuxi continue: "Whether it is public opinion or the photos of you and Dai Ming meeting privately, they are all intelligence held and released by the cabinet. Where did I get that kind of channel?!"

"They deliberately mentioned my name and attributed the credit to Chang'an. Can't you see what the cabinet is planning?!"

"The cabinet has long wanted to split you and our Su family. Do you think they will let go of this great opportunity?!"

Su Yuxi slapped the table again: "They must have secretly contacted other demon kings to follow you..."

"I told you not to meet Dai Ming. If you don't meet, put all the blame on Qinghe Hou. If you kill your relatives for the sake of justice, it will be enough to get the imperial family out of this case!"

"But what now? When you meet Dai Ming, will people think it was not your uncle's instruction?!"

Listening to Su Yuxi's voice, Zhao Mingjing's mind, which had just been irritated by anger, gradually calmed down. After a little thought, he realized that what Su Yuxi said made sense.

Chang'an Guo is a staunch supporter of the royalists. Although he has five "torch bearers" and several sages under his command, he is also protected by strong men. How could he follow him quietly without being discovered?

Moreover, in this case, the imperial family was in full control and had not noticed the hidden involvement of the Chang'an State...

The only surprise was that the Qinghe Marquis Mansion was invaded last night... Was the "friend, not enemy" mentioned by Mangtai actually a helper found by the cabinet?

Thinking of this, Zhao Mingjing's face became even gloomier: "Cabinet..."

Su Yuxi's eyes flashed with a smile, and he continued, "Now that the public opinion created by the cabinet has taken shape, there are only two paths before me: one is to follow your imperial family to the end, and the other is to become a 'hero' who solves the case!"

Zhao Mingjing was stunned, and his already ugly expression lost some of its color.

The Haijin Massacre has now pushed the imperial family to the opposite side of the people. If Chang'an State chooses the second path... then the royalist party led by the Prince of Chang'an will fall apart in an instant.

The imperial family lost this power...

Zhao Mingjing didn't want to think about the consequences, so he could only look at Su Yuxi and said with difficulty: "Cousin, what is your father's choice?"

"My father gave me the right to choose." Su Yuxi took back her hands from the table and looked at Zhao Mingjing calmly: "I choose the second path."

After saying that, Su Yuxi turned and walked outside: "Only by choosing the second path can we have a chance to save the entire imperial family... After all, my aunt is the queen."

A smile flashed in Su Yuxi's eyes as he finished speaking. This way, the imperial family would hate the cabinet even more and would surely retaliate against it crazily, and the cabinet would not have the energy to target Chang'an State first.

Fight, the harder the better!

Watching Su Yuxi disappear from sight, Zhao Mingjing's expression was uncertain. He certainly understood the meaning of Su Yuxi's last sentence. Only by completely drawing a clear line between Chang'an State and the Imperial Family could they continue to protect the Imperial Family in secret. However...

Will Prince Chang'an still support the fallen imperial family wholeheartedly?

"No, I haven't lost yet!"

Zhao Mingjing shook his head, his eyes sinister: "As long as Dai Ming is killed, my private meeting with him will only be to lure the snake out of its hole, not to discuss cooperation!"

"The Imperial Family has not lost yet!"

Thinking about this, Zhao Mingjing was about to call his father, but Zhao Xian called first.

Zhao Mingjing quickly picked up the phone, and heard his father's voice, suppressing his anger: "You disappoint me."

"Father, I..."

"I just want to ask you a question." Emperor Xuan'an Zhao Xian interrupted him: "Did Su Yuxi dissuade you from meeting Dai Ming?"

"Yes..." Zhao Xian whispered, "But now the Prince of Chang'an wants to draw a clear line between himself and our imperial family..."

"I know." Zhao Xian said indifferently, "The imperial family has not lost yet. It doesn't matter whether Su Yijing wants to protect the imperial family in another way or not. As long as we kill Dai Ming, Sha Yuan, and Liu Shu, and eliminate all traces of corpses in Mang Tai, victory will still be ours."

"My son understands."

"Let's go now!" Zhao Xian took a deep breath: "In front of the cabinet, in front of all the military and police, in front of the world, show the power of the Zhao family!"
