Red Mansion and Crimson Pearl

The old monk's back was a little hunched, his mouth was pursed and his face was raised, his long white eyebrows and beard were trembling.

"Look at you, you are both deaf and blind. Why did you have to come here in person?" King Dong took a few steps forward with some heartache and helped him up.

The old monk smiled, his wrinkles blooming like flowers: "After all, it's all the old debts we left behind. If we have more old guys to confront, it will be easier to explain it."

Old debt...

Everyone looked at each other in confusion.

Only one or two old ministers suddenly changed color and couldn't stop shaking, and one of them couldn't help but coughing while touching his chest.

When Prince Yu saw Zhitong, he sat up straight on his chair, looked at his confidants and asked, "When did he enter the palace? Why didn't our people report it?"

The confidant was speechless and immediately sent someone out to ask.

Who would have thought that Master Zhitong, who looked deaf and blind, was actually very sharp-eyed and sharp-eared. After hearing what he said, he walked forward slowly and chuckled:

"Prince Yu, there's no need to ask anyone else. I'll tell you."

The old monk took three or five steps and stood at the front of the group of court officials. Even Prince Dun quietly moved his feet and hid behind the old monk's wide gray robe.

"At midnight, Prince Yu was dying and told me that he wanted to go back to his house to say goodbye to his wife. I didn't agree at first, but went out to find a doctor for you."

At this moment, Master Zhitong had a kind face and was calm, “But when I came back, I didn’t bring the doctor with me, but let you go back home.

"Do you think it's my little bit of compassion that's causing the trouble?"

So the way Prince Yu left the Dali Temple was to pretend to be sick?!

Everyone was stunned, with strange looks on their faces.

Prince Yu, who has always presented himself as mysterious, actually has some unpredictable methods!

Prince Zhongshun couldn't help but laugh while stroking his beard: "I never thought that one day, the four words wagging the tail and begging for mercy would be used on you, Uncle Yu!"

Prince Yu's face suddenly turned green and red, his eyes flashed with ferocity, he stared at Zhi Tong fiercely and changed the subject:

"Thief Baldy, you'd better open your eyes and see that I have taken control of the entire Daming Palace!

"Even if you boast loudly at this moment, saying that you deliberately let me out of the Dali Temple, what good will it do?!"

Zhitong smiled again, took out a stack of papers from his arms, and waved them at him: "Last night's trial yielded a lot of results."

Prince Yu frowned.

The confidant immediately bent down and whispered, "Yesterday, the actor named Jiang that the Prince Zhongshun had previously favored, a maid from the Rong Mansion that the Xue family had protected, and the Crown Prince's Consort from the Prince Zhongshun's family were all taken to the Dali Temple."

Prince Yu's face changed drastically, and he scolded in a low voice: "Such a big thing, why didn't you report it last night?!"

The confidant lowered his head: "The prince has returned to the palace, and there are so many things to do..."

"I never expected that the ladies of the various families actually knew so much."

Master Zhitong waved the offering paper in his hand towards Prince Yu again:

"And only a few of their confessions were read out before the princes, along with the circumstantial evidence from Jiang Yuhan, who traveled around the prefectures;

“You adults, whose mouths have been as tight as clams for days, suddenly know that you have nothing to say and are afraid of falling behind.

"Oh, the one who spoke first, his surname is Jia, Jia Yucun."

Cracks began to appear in the expressions of Prince Yu and Prince Zhongshun.

“I never thought that Jia Yucun would flatter and betray others all the way, and all the lords and princes would think that he is most loyal to me!

"This man's eloquence is so good that you all forget that human nature is greedy?" The offering paper in Master Zhitong's hand seemed to be tempting King Yu.

Prince Yu finally couldn't help it, raised his good hand, extended his index finger, and pointed at the stack of papers:

"I want to hear what they are talking about!?"

Zhi Tong uttered an "oh" as if waking up from a dream, and handed the stack of papers to Cao Feng, but turned his head towards King Dong and said:

"Many years ago, the first deposed prince was also gentle and polite. But later he became more and more lonely and violent.

"At that time, we all said that it was probably because he had been the crown prince for too long and was feeling depressed.

"But these people said that it was Prince Yu who borrowed Prince Zhongshun's hand and used a few captive female slaves sent by foreign tribes to give the former deposed prince medicine."

The Prince of the East froze, his eyes twitched violently, and he looked at Princes Yu and Zhongshun with a terrifyingly deep gaze:

"My Lords, what happened here has nothing to do with me personally, and I don't intend to get blood on my hands..."

In the hall, besides the eerie voice of the East King, there was a thin and long dragon roar.

The King of the East drew out the sword at his waist, which was shining with a cold light.

"And the current Empress was also killed by them." Master Zhitong sighed.

Cao Feng, who was quickly flipping through the paper supply, took a breath and said in a lost voice: "Southeast, Jiangnan, and Southwest, agreed to start an uprising at the same time during the Lantern Festival?!"

The hall suddenly exploded!

Rebellion! ?

Three places at the same time! ?

This will cause chaos in the world!

Master Zhitong rubbed his temples and shook his head tiredly: "In the southeast, your majesty asked the Supreme Lord to release a killer in the early years.

"There's another guy named Wei in the southwest.

"Only Ding Mingyi in Jiangnan was caught off guard and fell into the trap. But His Majesty has already sent Xiaoshao Cao over urgently.

"It shouldn't be a big problem."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Cao Feng's eyes were still on the offering paper. He cursed angrily and rolled his eyes at King Zhongshun with a mocking look on his face:

"Lord Zhongshun, do you think you are worthy enough to call for a purge of the imperial court?

"How many spies have you placed in the Imperial Guards over the years?

"If it weren't for General Feng who took charge of the Daming Palace guards a few years ago, there would have been many adjustments. I'm afraid that all the people around the emperor would be your people now, right?"

Without waiting for Prince Zhongshun to refute, he looked at Prince Yu and sneered, “Prince Yu racked his brains to subdue Prince Xining, and through him, he successively took down Prince Beijing and several dukes.

“And the old tiger talisman of the Jia family was also handed over to you by the King of the West a long time ago!

“As for the specific itinerary of His Majesty and the Crown Prince leaving the capital, the Crown Princess of Prince Zhongshun only knew the destination, but she didn’t know how they would get there or where they would rest!

“But the two princes have already planted people in Taiji Palace and Daming Palace, so the whereabouts of the Supreme Lord are clear to them!

“Plus the old tiger talisman that was used to frame someone to escape a crime!

"Prince Yu, it was you who plotted to assassinate His Majesty and the Crown Prince, right?

"Rebel!"

Having said that, Prince Yu no longer had to hide anything. There was no point in wearing the mask of hypocrisy any longer.

He laughed grimly, raised his face, and pointed his nose to the sky: "That's right! I arranged all this!

"I'll teach you that the Crown Prince had already died in Chang'an Inn, and His Majesty was so heartbroken that he vomited blood. He was already at the end of his strength.

“This prince knows that the current emperor has set out with the second prince to deliver the medicine overnight.

"So, on their way back to Beijing, I have arranged a little surprise for that stubborn and arrogant Emperor!"

At this point, he looked up at the Third Prince, whose face had turned pale, with a twisted and fanatical expression.

"Little Third Son, the Imperial Uncle has cleared out all the people in front of you.

"Next, you will be the emperor, and your uncle will assist you in governing the country. How about that?!"
