Yuan Wenkang would need the Crown Prince to come to take him away.
He never expected that the person who came to see him, turned out to be Wu Xufan.
But upon reflection.
Given the close relationship between the Crown Prince and Young Master, it was only natural for the Crown Prince to ask Young Master to rescue him.
Thus, he had not much suspicion.
Wu Xufan negotiated a bit, then took Yuan Wenkang away.
Yuan Wenkang had been severely tortured, with serious injuries and his body covered in blood and flesh so indistinguishable that even walking was staggering at the moment.
After leaving the Imperial Palace.
"Yuan Wenkang, do you know why I came to rescue you?" Wu Xufan asked him.
"By the Crown Prince's order."
"No." Wu Xufan spoke directly, "Of course, after the Crown Prince's vigil, he would come to take you away, but today's event was not his order."
"I don't understand why." Yuan Wenkang replied respectfully.
Wu Xufan sneered, "You really don't know?"
