Qin Xuan's heartbeat quickened, it would be great if ancestor Qin Yuan had not died.

"Xiao Fan, are you sure your induction is correct?"

Qin Xuan asked.

Xiao Fan nodded: "I can feel the sadness of Your Majesty and Your Highness, but I can't feel the sadness of Eunuch Gao."

Qin Xuan's eyes flashed: "Since he is not sad at all, no matter what kind of guess, there must be something wrong with him."

"I have to go to the palace again."

Xiao Fan quickly said: "Your Highness, I'm afraid it's not easy to get evidence for this. What if he denies it?"

Qin Xuan frowned.

If Gao Quan is a monster, killing him will reveal his true form, so that we can definitely get evidence, but Gao Quan is not a monster.

He had been loyal to Qin Yuan for more than two hundred years. When something happened to Qin Yuan, the emperor would target high officials. Without evidence, it would be easy to accuse others.

"What can you do?"

Qin Xuan asked.

Xiao Fan asked: "Your Highness, what kind of cultivation level does Eunuch Gao have?"

Qin Xuan said: "High power should be the cultivation level of Emperor Wu in the middle period."

"It is definitely not an easy task for a strong man of his level to make him surrender through torture."

Xiao Fan thought for a moment and said, "Your Highness, let's finish the funeral first, otherwise it may give many people a reason to attack His Majesty."

"Um."

Qin Xuan nodded slightly.

Qin Yuan may not be dead, but this is just a guess by Xiao Fan. It is impossible for the funeral to stop without any evidence.

"I will discuss this with my father."

Xiao Fan nodded and returned to his villa.

He was not a relative of the emperor. When Qin Yuan died, he would just go over and play two songs every day. The funeral had nothing to do with him.

"Father."

After handling some urgent matters, Qin Xuan and Jiang Yuli went to the palace together. Jiang Yuli was the crown prince and she also needed to observe filial piety.

"Are you done?"

Qin Zhentian said with a heavy heart.

"Father, I am very busy. I have something to ask my father for advice. Father, can you spare some time?"

Qin Xuan said respectfully.

Qin Zhentian nodded slightly, he didn't need to stay here all the time.

Soon Qin Zhentian and Qin Xuan arrived at the imperial study.

"What's the matter?"

Qin Zhentian asked.

At this time, if there was nothing important, Qin Xuan probably wouldn't talk to him in private... Just talk to Chuanyin and that would be enough.

——There are many powerful people in the Hall of Heroes. Qin Xuan only has the level of divine elixir level. His voice transmission may be eavesdropped by other powerful people.

"Father, can high authority be trusted?"

Qin Xuan asked.

Qin Zhentian nodded: "He has been with our ancestors for more than two hundred years, so he is naturally trustworthy. Why do you ask?"

Qin Xuan muttered: "Father, Xiao Fan said that he can sense emotions when he plays and can sense our sadness."

"But he doesn't feel the sadness of high power at all."

"Between Xiao Fan and Gao Quan, I trust Xiao Fan more."

Qin Zhentian's eyes showed hope.

If what Xiao Fan said is true, Qin Yuan might not have died.

"Finish the funeral first and then talk about the rest."

"Even if you take high power at this time, the possibility of finding evidence is very low, and Xiao Fan's perception may not be 100% correct."

"Perhaps those in high positions have means to hide their emotions."

Qin Zhentian thought for a while and said in a deep voice.

Qin Xuan nodded: "Well, there is an advantage to this. The appointment of Prince Liangdi can be postponed. The later the appointment of Prince Liangdi, the better."

Qin Zhentian's eyes flashed: "After this incident, it is a question whether Nangong Jin still wants to let Nangong Suxin enter the prince's mansion."

"Indeed."

Qin Xuan said.

Qin Zhentian has determined that Nangong Suxin will become the crown prince Liangdi, but if Nangong Jin wants to regret it, he will definitely find a reason.

Shengjing City, Nangonghou Mansion.

This mansion was given by Qin Zhentian to Zhenyuan Hou Nangong Jin.

"Father, what are you thinking about?"

Nangong Suxin asked.

Nangong Jin called her over, but Nangong Jin looked towards the palace and didn't say a word for five minutes.

"Su Xin, ancestor Qin Yuan is dead. It may not be a good idea for you to become the Crown Prince Liangdi again. The Tianlong Empire has exhausted its power."

Nangong Jin took a deep breath and said.

Nangong Suxin looked at her father blankly: "Father, Your Majesty has made a decree. I am already the Crown Prince Liangdi in name."

"It's just that I haven't officially entered the mansion yet."

Nangong Jin frowned and said: "Ancestor Qin Yuan has the perfect cultivation level of Emperor Wu. My father originally thought that the possibility of him coming out is not low."

"I didn't expect that he actually died in the ancient secret realm."

"His death may not cause any problems in a short period of time, but as time passes, various conflicts in the Tianlong Empire will inevitably arise."

"We're going to be ruined if we stay on this big ship."

Nangong Suxin was silent for a while and said: "Father, I think your idea is wrong. You are the Marquis of Zhenyuan conferred by His Majesty."

"His Majesty treats you and our Nangong family well."

"I want to be the Crown Prince Liangdi, and even want to be the Queen in the future. I don't think it's wrong, but I would definitely be wrong if I backed down."

Nangong Jin frowned and looked at Nangong Suxin.

Nangong Suxin looked directly at her father.

"Father, can't our Nangong family share adversity with the empire? There is a poem written by Xiao Shidu that says, "Since ancient times, no one has ever died, and his loyalty will be remembered by history."

Nangong Suxin said.

"Snapped!"

Nangong Jin slapped Nangong Suxin on the face.

"Su Xin, who allowed you to talk to your father like this?"

Nangong Jin said sharply.

Nangong Suxin didn't even frown.

"Father, I know that you are the head of the Nangong family and you have to consider the interests of the entire family, but His Majesty does treat us well."

"If we betray, we will lose the thousand-year reputation of the Nangong family."

After saying this, Nangong Suxin bowed and turned around to leave the room.

Nangong Jin's frown deepened.

He knew that what Nangong Suxin said made sense, but there were so many people in the Nangong family, and making the wrong choice would lead to death.

"well!"

Nangong Jin let out a long sigh.

If it were just him, he could firmly support Qin Zhentian. Considering the entire family, it was really difficult for him to make a decision.

Based on the current situation, he estimated that the possibility of the collapse of the Tianlong Empire within a year was not low, and the possibility of collapse within three years reached 70%.

"General Jiang should have broken through to Emperor Wu's consummation soon, but he is not Qin Yuan, and his influence on the royal family is much weaker."

Nangong Jin murmured to himself.

If Jiang Gan breaks through, the situation should ease a little, but Jiang Gan can only delay and cannot completely save the Tianlong Empire.

If Qin Zhentian himself can break through to the late stage of Emperor Wu and possess the full strength of Emperor Wu, the situation can be eased a lot.

But Qin Zhentian's breakthrough is likely to take another two or three years.

Can the Tianlong Empire last another two years?

There are many tigers, leopards and wolves in the dark. They will not give Qin Zhentian much time. Some forces may have been ready to take action.
