"In fact, from beginning to end, someone is deliberately messing with Pei Mu." Samuel looked at Yvonne.
Hearing this, Yvonne frowned and said, "You mean... in fact, everything was not done by Pei Mu. On the contrary, someone deliberately took the time to create this incident. The ultimate goal is to completely turn Pei Mu, who has the appearance of an emperor, into a piece of trash and a bane to everyone."
Samuel nodded. This was his biggest guess. At the same time, it was also the most likely guess.
Although the Pei family couldn't be considered an absolute country, it was still as powerful as an emperor's family.
In that case, the imperial family was full of palace struggles.
A civet cat changing the crown prince can be staged, what's the big deal?
"I agree with you, but there is a problem with Pei Mu's identity," Yvonne said.
That's right. If there was a palace fight, Pei Mu should be from the Pei clan’s patriarch. However, it didn't make sense because Pei Mu had his own parents.
"Could it be that the head of the Pei family is afraid that Pei Mu will threaten the position of the main branch of the Pei family, so..." Yvonne guessed.
This was a possibility, but there was still a problem.
"The best way is to eliminate him by the roots. According to what you said, why should they keep Pei Mu here? Isn't that equivalent to putting a time bomb in there? Moreover, they kept him in the Pei Estate." Samuel didn't quite agree with this idea.
"Those who kill the emperor may be punished by the heavens, so..." Yvonne explained, "As for why Pei Mu is locked up in the Pei Manor, isn't it convenient for them to monitor him?"
Samuel shook his head. "Although I don't know Pei Gu very well, I know a thing or two about him. I thought he wasn't that kind of person."
"I also believe that Pei Gu is not that kind of person, but don't forget that the shopkeeper said when Pei Mu was still alive, the previous patriarch was still alive."
"Perhaps it really wasn't done by Pei Gu. In fact, he might not even know the truth. Everything was done by the old patriarch with the intention of allowing Pei Gu to ascend the throne steadily."
Samuel still shook his head. Although what Yvonne said was reasonable, there were still loopholes in it.
"It's a matter of time!"
Now that Pei Gu had ascended the throne, Pei Mu wouldn't be able to threaten Pei Gu's status even if he had the appearance of an emperor.
