Black Fairy, the master is a female ghost

Chapter 176 The Prince's Public Plan

On the second morning, His Majesty was ill, and the Crown Prince again came to temporarily take over the government.

After he sat down, he turned his gaze to Lu Xunhuan: "Prime Minister, when you visited my father in his palace yesterday, you met many concubines, right?"

Lu Xun Huan blinked: "I saw it. What's the matter, Your Highness? Are you afraid that your soul will disappear?"

The prince laughed: "You..."

Then, he suddenly put on a serious face and said, "You dare to make fun of the concubines? Are you going to die?"

Lu Xun Huan bowed and said, "Your Highness, please tell me what you have to say."

The prince exclaimed, "Oh!" and stood up. "Lu Suifeng, you're getting bolder and bolder. How dare you talk to me like that?"

Lu Xun Huan said, "Your Highness is approachable and kind. I find him kind."

The prince laughed again: "Haha..."

He sat down again: "Okay, okay, no more jokes, let's get serious."

He asked Lu Xunhuan, "Did you see any of those concubines yesterday who looked abnormal?"

Lu Xunhuan thought to himself, what kind of question is this? How can you ask it like that?

Even if some concubines have ulterior motives, they can't ask them so directly in front of all the civil and military officials, right?

What happened in the court was quickly reported to the harem after the court was dismissed.

As the crown prince, what do the concubines think when you ask this question?

Lu Xun Huan replied, "Your Highness, in my humble opinion, everyone looks normal and is in good health."

The prince said dissatisfiedly, "Who asked about their complexion? This prince asks you, is there anyone among them who looks sneaky?"

Lu Xun Huan said, "Everyone is well behaved in His Majesty's bedroom. How could they be sneaky and want to steal something while His Majesty is not feeling well?"

The prince stood up again and said, "You, the disciple of the sage, are not that stupid. What I want to ask is whether any of the concubines think that our father is no longer able to survive and want to rebel."

Lu Xun Huan coughed a few times, as if he was choking. "Your Highness, in my humble opinion, everyone is quite normal. Besides, I'm not saying this here..."

He turned around and said, "Your Highness, look, everyone is scared."

The Crown Prince looked at the stunned expressions of the civil and military officials in the court, and seemed to find it very amusing. He suddenly laughed again: "Haha..."

He sat down again: "Hey, Lu Suifeng, although you and this prince have some conflicts, I know that you are the most open-minded person. A gentleman is open-minded, so what is there to be afraid of?"

He pointed at the civil and military officials and said, "Look at this bunch of losers. I just said a few words to you and you're all so scared that you almost peed yourself."

"Hahaha..." He laughed again.

"Lord Lu, I know that some people want to destroy me. Now that my father is seriously ill, those people are ready to make a move and are restless. The fox's tail is about to be exposed."

He slammed the jade table and said, "This prince is here today to startle the snakes, to make them jump with fear, to make them afraid. When they are afraid, they will go crazy, and when they are crazy, they will come out and bite people. Then this prince will get out as soon as possible..."

He waved his hand and made a knife-slashing gesture: "Wow..."

Lu Xunhuan continued, "The world has been peaceful ever since..."

"Hahaha……"

The prince laughed so hard that he fell backwards: "Yes, yes, the world will be peaceful from now on..."

After laughing for a while, he asked Lu Xunhuan, "Well, my dear Lord Lu, this prince is smart and wise, isn't he? Is this strategy of alerting the enemy well?"

Lu Xun Huan said, "Your Highness, your plan is good, but it's still a little inappropriate to talk about it here."

The prince's face turned stern again, and he changed his expression faster than turning the pages of a book: "Bullshit, Lu Suifeng, have you forgotten that this prince almost died in Baocheng? Ah, they wanted to kill this prince, shouldn't this prince find out who they are?"

Lu Xunhuan saluted: "It's due."

The prince looked furious: "Speaking of that matter, you are responsible. How did you protect me? Now I want to investigate the mastermind behind this. You are not doing this, and you are not doing that. What do you mean?"

He pointed at Lu Xunhuan and said, "When you went to your father's bedroom yesterday, did anyone wink at you? Did they? Did they?"

Lu Xun Huan was embarrassed: "Your Highness, what you said... In front of His Majesty, everyone winked at me. What kind of winks? Flirting? This..."

"Hahaha……"

The prince laughed again.

"Oh, you are so good, Lu Suifeng. Concubine Huan is recognized as the most beautiful woman in my father's harem. You went there once, twice, and according to the prince, you will probably go there three, four, and five times. What do you mean?"

Lu Xunhuan said, "It's boring."

The prince glared at him and asked, "What do you mean by 'boring'?"

Lu Xun Huan said, "It's boring, it's meaningless. It has no meaning at all."

The prince stroked his fat chin and said, "Really? In my opinion, boring things are interesting. It's interesting today, interesting tomorrow, and gradually it becomes interesting."

Lu Xun Huan bowed and said, "Your Highness, I have strayed from the topic. We still have many things to discuss."

The prince persisted: "Why, you don't dare to speak, are you hiding something?"

He snorted, "Hmph, if you want me to believe that you're boring, then check it out for me."

After saying this, he seemed to really feel that it was a bit inappropriate, so he coughed twice: "Ahem... Forget it, this prince doesn't count on you, go and cool down."

He looked at the ministers and said, "If you have anything to say, please report it."

After retiring from court, Lu Xunhuan and Ming Dexi went to Jingming Lake together.

After no one was around, Ming Dexi whispered, "Prime Minister, please quickly get that evil creature out and let His Majesty recover."

Lu Xunhuan smiled slightly: "Why, can't you bear it?"

Ming Dexi shook his head: "Once that matter is settled, I will retire and return home."

He asked Lu Xunhuan, "Have you come up with a solution?"

Lu Xun Huan said, "Look, you guys, for just a few bucks, you dare to do such a daring thing. Aren't you afraid of losing your heads?"

Ming Dexi said with a bitter face: "Prime Minister, things are not as simple as you think."

Lu Xunhuan turned around and asked, "Any more inside information?"

Ming Dexi sighed and whispered, "She's never been one to settle down. At first, she and the Eighth Prince were secretly passionate about each other, but then the Eighth Prince probably got tired of her and wanted to kick her out, so he gave her this bad idea."

"Now, she is like a hot potato. The Eighth Prince secretly ordered that she be dealt with as soon as possible, even if it means..."

Lu Xun Huan patted his shoulder and said, "Didn't you guys say last night that no one knew about this anymore?"

Ming Dexi shook his head again: "How dare she mention the Eighth Prince?"

After that, the two of them stopped talking. They each thought about their own things along the way until they reached Jingming Lake.

The meaning of what Ming Dexi said before was very clear.

Concubine Jin used to be secretly in love with the Eighth Prince, but later the Eighth Prince got tired of her and didn't want to be entangled with her anymore, so he came up with an idea and asked the Jingshifang to find a fake eunuch for Concubine Jin.

Wouldn’t this be the same story as Zhao Ji and Lao Ai again?

However, Concubine Jin did not have as high a status as Zhao Ji.

Although the Eighth Prince was also an important official, he did not have the power that Lü Buwei had.

If the matter is exposed, Concubine Jin will die, and the Eighth Prince will be implicated. If things go wrong, the whole family may be exiled to a barren island overseas.

Therefore, the Eighth Prince secretly instructed Ming Dexi that even if Concubine Jin was killed, this matter must not be exposed.

After arriving at Jingming Lake, Lu Xunhuan looked at the eight towers under construction one by one and gave instructions to each one.

Then, he asked Ming Dexi to take him to see His Majesty the King again.
