Fu Zhen, who had studied military tactics, understood upon hearing this: "Are you saying that the Crown Prince accidentally got caught in the trap set by His Majesty?"
Mrs. Feng nodded, her voice softening: "The Crown Prince appeared below the deserted city wall, unexpectedly becoming the key piece in the enemy's trap. Not long after, news of his disappearance spread."
Fu Zhen was at a loss for words.
It took her a long time to find her voice again: "This strategy was personally set by His Majesty. When the Crown Prince went there, was he unaware?"
Mrs. Feng glanced at her: "To be fair, he was the commander. Not being present on the front lines is quite normal."
How could Fu Zhen argue against this?
She stared at Mrs. Feng for a moment, leaning in: "You wouldn't tell me this for no reason; you must know something more."
