"Xu'er, I really don't know who will be the first person you kowtow to after I die a hundred years later! Am I the ruler of the country, or is your uncle the ruler of the country?!"

The emperor roared loudly, his blood boiling in his heart. His love for the third prince was instantly swallowed up by uncontrollable jealousy and murderous intent.

"For the next two months, you will reflect on your mistakes in your own palace! You are not allowed to leave without permission!"

The emperor said this coldly, then turned and left resolutely, with even his back showing extreme indifference.

The third prince's heart was beating fast. He didn't know why he was so impatient and poured out all his thoughts!

He was so frightened by his father's behavior that he was in a panic. He held his breath and stood there, not daring to move.

The two eunuchs left by the emperor looked at him and said, "Go back and face the wall, Your Highness the Third Prince!"

The emperor walked quickly and said to the eunuch He beside him coldly, "Call Pei Fan over!"

During the morning court session in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the emperor wanted to ask the Grand Court Judge to step out, but he discovered that Lord Jihou had taken leave and did not attend the court session, and Grand Court Judge Xu Jiusi had also taken leave.

He never paid attention to these details in the past, but ever since Jiang Xing broke into the palace and caused a commotion yesterday, he suddenly figured out something.

Just yesterday, they punished Ji Cheng, and today they are so blatantly forming a clique. Are they trying to displease him, the emperor, or are they colluding to deceive him?!

No wonder the Ji family can extend their hands so far. For so many years, they have been truly lawless!

The emperor couldn't get angry because the person who should have come didn't show up in front of all the civil and military officials.

After the court session, Pei Fan was already waiting for him in the Xuanzheng Hall.

In front of his confidant, he no longer suppressed the storm in his eyes.

"There's no need to have Xu Jiusi interrogate Ji Cheng anymore. That day, Prince Jin said he was stopped in the prison. This must have been Xu Jiusi's instruction! Look at the Dali Temple at the end. Who asked him to bring Song Chushi out? That person is definitely not from the Ji family! Order that official to investigate!"

The emperor clenched his fists tightly, suppressing the rage in his heart: "I want to see how they can bribe this person!"

If possible, he would like to kill Ji Cheng now, immediately, and instantly!

It has been fifteen years, and he really doesn't want to have to live his life according to the wishes of various major forces today!

But the Ji family also contributed to his becoming emperor, and Jia Ru...

Now he can only let them lose their composure and reveal their flaws!

Pei Fan instantly understood the emperor's intention, bowed and answered yes.

The emperor added, "Today, we'll focus on investigating Xu Jiusi and see what he promised Ji Xiangli! If the situation is serious, he'll be dismissed and investigated!"

"Yes!"

Lord Ji Hou had indeed gone to see Xu Jiusi early in the morning. At this moment, Ji Cheng had also been brought out of the prison, and the three of them were having a secret conversation in the Dali Temple.

There were three knocks on the door, and Xu Jiusi opened it.

The confidant outside the door whispered a few words in his ear, and Xu Jiusi's face turned pale instantly.

He hurriedly closed the door and bowed to Lord Li: "Lord, the situation now is beyond our control!"

He was so frightened that his throat was shaking. "It's not that I won't help you. The Emperor just issued another decree. I don't need to help you anymore! The Jinwu Guards are already outside. Master Ji, please hurry back to your cell!"

He was so anxious that he wanted to run away immediately, but was caught by Lord Ji: "But what about the change in the treatment?"

Seeing he couldn't leave, Xu Jiusi stamped his foot anxiously: "The emperor found out about what happened between me and the marquis, and changed his mind early this morning, letting Huang Zhiwang handle the case!"

He wanted to cry but had no tears: "My Lord, you have caused me great harm this time! If you don't want your whole family to be implicated, go back quickly! Master Ji, please return to the cell immediately. I am afraid that my official hat will be in jeopardy now!"

Lord Ji's mind went blank for a moment, and his face turned pale.

Taking advantage of the moment when Lord Ji was stunned, Xu Jiusi immediately pulled the door hard and quickly left the secret room.

Lord Ji never expected that even Xu Jiusi would be replaced so quickly!

This time the emperor actually went against him!

What does he want to do?

This is to suspect the Ji family, deliberately letting the entire court watch how the Ji family wins over the court officials, and what will be the fate of those people? !

What a great emperor!

This is a test to make moves on him, to scare the monkeys!

Fifteen years have passed. When did he become like this, becoming so scheming?!

Ji Cheng also began to panic and grabbed Master Ji, "Dad! This is unusual. Send someone to the palace immediately! There must be something wrong in the palace!"

Lord Ji's face flushed red, and he was too anxious to calm down: "Boss! You need to go to the prison first!"

There was a fierce look in his eyes: "The Emperor dare not touch you. If he really does, I will never let him go!"

Ji Cheng was frightened by Lord Ji's expression at that moment.

He hurriedly said, "Please do not say such treasonous words again! The Emperor is clearly testing our loyalty. We cannot make another mistake!"

He pulled Marquis Ji's arm and said, "The best way now is to delay until Jiaru softens him up. Only then will our son have a chance to go out! You go first, I'll wait for your news!"

Lord Ji sighed, hurried out of the Dali Temple with tears in his eyes.

……

Lu Xuan looked at the talisman ashes in the small stove in front of him, gently brushed off the ashes on his clothes, and looked at the door and said, "Is Sang Luo back?"

"I'm back, I'm back!" Sang Luo's voice came from more than ten steps away.

She ran over from a distance and strode into the room: "Princess, as you instructed, I went to Zhengyang Gate and waited. I saw the commander of the Jinwu Guards leading his men out to the Dali Temple!"

Ever since Jiang Xing came in this morning with a large bunch of jasmine, Lu Xuan has been pulling him to sit next to her.

He stood up and asked, "Has Xuan Ge returned from the Dali Temple yet?"

Xuan Ge quickly stepped in: "Your Majesty!"

"Pei Fan, the commander of the Jinwu Guard, has entered the Dali Temple and informed Xu Jiusi that he has been dismissed and investigated. Huang Zhiwang will be the judge of this case!"

"So fast!" Jiang Xing was shocked by Lu Xuan again at this moment!

An hour ago, he got up early in the morning and came to see her with the precious Jasmine, but she was met with an unprecedented and unusually enthusiastic invitation to stay, and she even pulled him to sit next to her.

I am doubtful, but I am still happy in my heart.

But he didn't expect that it was her actions that required him to be there!

So he just stood there quietly watching her cast the talismans and complete the entire ritual.

Only now did he understand that the princess was performing a ritual that could make the emperor change his mind!

How on earth did she do it? !

He turned around and looked at Lu Xuan in shock: "Princess, the birth date written on your talisman is Xu Jiusi?!"

"No!" Lu Xuan was instructing people to clean up the traces of the ritual in the room. "It's the Third Prince, Jiang Xu!"

Jiang Xing's jaw dropped. "What the hell is going on? Why did you target the Third Prince, but it was Xu Jiusi who suffered? Why didn't the Emperor punish the Third Prince?"

"How do you know the emperor didn't punish the Third Prince?" Lu Xuan smiled and said, "The Third Prince should be under house arrest!"

Just now she used the third prince's birth date and time to perform a ritual and cast a curse.

It drove the Third Prince to do something that went against his will.

At that time she sensed through the aura of the talisman that the emperor was angry.

But she still couldn't cast the curse anymore, as she felt a little pain in her heart.

Seeing that she looked unhappy, Jiang Xing immediately helped her sit down.

His eyes were full of concern: "You are feeling unwell right now. Is it related to the ritual just now?"

Lu Xuan nodded, looking at the beautiful garden outside the house: "There's nothing I can do! Some enemies can't be avenged using normal means!"

She knew that the Ji family had a deep bond with the emperor, so how could they be overthrown just because of Song Chushi's backlash?

Yesterday, the emperor said that the verdict should be whatever he wanted. Considering the power of the Ji family, there is a lot to be done here!

It would be easy for them to find a few people to take the blame at that time.

The emperor is a real dragon, and she cannot use mystical magic on him privately, so she can only start with the third prince!

But casting a curse will always backfire.

She deliberately kept Jiang Xing so that she could use the purple energy on him to protect her body, but she didn't expect that he would still be affected!

However, it can be considered as revenge for the sword that the Third Prince pierced through her and her child in the previous life!

The emperor loves the Third Prince and Empress Ji very much. Only when he makes the Third Prince and Empress Ji feel uneasy and jealous, will he really have the intention to kill the Ji family!

As long as you have the intention to kill, things will be easy!
