At night, when it should have been dark and quiet, the lights in Prince Jin's palace were brightly lit.

In the backyard study.

King Jin's face was a little gloomy, "You have all followed me for many years. Whether you can achieve great things depends on three days from now. Success or failure all depends on this..."

"Your Majesty is your destiny. We wish you success in your great career!"

In front of the King of Jin were the ministers of the court headed by Liao Ai, the leader of the Imperial Guard Zhang Cheng, the Minister of Household Affairs Fengyu and several of the King of Jin's confidants.

Thanks to the efforts of King Jin over the years, he is finally fully prepared today. The old emperor has caused rumors in the court recently. He is obsessed with the art of refining elixirs and immortality, which has already caused many voices of dissatisfaction in the court. .

But these people dared to be angry but dared not speak out. King Jin had grasped their mentality, so he was ready to force the palace at this time!

That's right, it's to force him into the palace. He plans to take action in three days!

But this time he found an honest reason to force the palace, and that was Qing Junzi!

His first target is Taoist Chu Yun. King Jin is planning to enter the palace in the name of getting rid of Taoist Chu Yun, but if Taoist Chu Yun jumps over the wall and hurts the current emperor...

At that time, the reason why King Jin entered the palace to Qingjun's side will become more and more upright!

Over the years, with Liao Ai's help, he has indeed won over many courtiers. Once the old emperor dies and he controls the Imperial Guard, no one will be able to resist him!

In order to get to that position, the process is actually not important, the result is the most important!

This opportunity was rare. They had been preparing for so many years for this day. King Jin was inexplicably excited, so excited that he couldn't sleep at all.

The night outside the window was sultry, and the people in Prince Jin's palace were all ready, with serious expressions on their faces. They all knew that the capital would change in a very short time.

But at this moment, a person who shouldn't have appeared appeared. Qi Ming actually appeared in Prince Jin's Mansion with his inner guards.

"Your Majesty, it's not good, the inner guard is here!"

A servant ran into the study in a panic, and everyone's expressions changed drastically as soon as he finished speaking.

"Your Majesty..." the staff member said with an ugly expression, "Did the palace notice something?"

King Jin said with a stern face, "It's impossible. I'll go meet Qi Ming first. Don't mess up your position."

Having said that, King Jin had a bad premonition in his heart. Qi Ming was waiting in the front hall at this time. When he saw King Jin coming out, a glint flashed in his eyes, "Your Majesty, haven't you rested at this late hour?"

King Jin walked out majestically in a brocade suit, and it seemed that he had not fallen asleep yet.

"Commander Qi comes to see me at such a late hour. There must be something big going on." King Jin said coldly.

Qi Ming twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Your Majesty, please come. Your Majesty, please come to the palace immediately..."

"Now?" King Jin looked ugly, "What did the Emperor say at this late hour?"

"Your Majesty, this is a difficult time for a villain," Qi Mingpi said with a smile, "The Emperor has ordered that King Xuan Jin will come to see you immediately. Your Majesty, please invite me."

Prince Jin looked ugly, "Okay, Commander Qi, please wait for a moment while I and the princess explain..."

Because Qi Ming was always by his side, King Jin couldn't say anything. He could only briefly explain to his confidants, but he didn't know that as soon as he left the palace, Qi Ming let the inner guards take control of Prince Jin's palace. Several ministers and staff headed by Liao Ai were secretly brought into the palace.

At this time, in Qianqing Palace.

The old emperor sat on the dragon chair with a cold face, while the prince, Grand Master Qin and several cabinet ministers stood in the hall one after another.

"Your Majesty, Commander Qi is back." Eunuch Fulu whispered in the emperor's ear.

"Let them come in." The old emperor said coldly.

After a while, Qi Ming led King Jin into the main hall. Looking at the people present, King Jin's face became increasingly ugly.

"Are you wondering why I discovered your conspiracy?" The old emperor looked at King Jin with cold eyes and said straight to the point.

King Jin's palms were full of sweat, but his face pretended to be calm, "What are you talking about, my brother? Why can't I understand?"

"Don't understand?" The old emperor sneered, "Prince, tell me."

"Yes," the prince turned and looked at King Jin coldly, "Uncle Wang, why bother pretending to be confused anymore? You must know that this whole world is not the king's land. Your every move is actually in the eyes of the father. It's just that he has trouble with your mother. The friendship between compatriots is why I tolerate you in every way, but you really let him down!"

"Prince, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly," King Jin sneered, and then looked at the prince coldly, "No one wants to hear so much nonsense from you in the middle of the night."

"You..." The prince looked at him angrily.

It was Taishi Qin who coughed softly at the side, which made the prince calm down. The prince snorted coldly and then said, "Father, I found out something very interesting a few days ago, and that is the current Xiang Xiang." The concubine is not Liao Ai’s biological daughter, but an orphan girl named Nuer pretending to be her.”

The old emperor did not speak, and looked at King Jin with increasingly cold eyes. At his signal, the prince continued: "Back then, this orphan girl was sold into a brothel. Uncle Wang saw her and rescued her with pity. It is also a coincidence. , the slave grew more and more like Liao Ai's daughter Liao Qing'er, so when Liao Qing'er eloped with someone, Uncle Wang sent the slave to the Liao family, and finally took Liao Qing'er's place and sent it to the palace."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the hall was surprised, and Prince Jin's expression became even more unpredictable.

He didn't understand what went wrong and how the prince knew about it!

Everyone who knew about this back then was obviously silenced by him! Could it be that there are still fish that have slipped through the net?

"The prince is getting better and better at telling stories," King Jin sneered, "What evidence do you have for saying this?" Then he looked at the old emperor and said, "Brother, you may believe it too, right?"

"Uncle Wang, there is no need to be so impatient," the prince did not give King Jin a chance to quibble, but said directly and coldly: "If there is no evidence, I will naturally not say this in front of my father. Father, if I find a witness, I will be in the palace." Besides, if you agree, you can call them in and ask them."

"Call in." The old emperor said with a gloomy face.

Soon a lame man was brought up. This man knelt on the ground to greet the emperor tremblingly, with cold sweat streaming down his head.

"Father, this man is the man who was rumored to have eloped with Liao Qing'er back then. He is also the young student of the Jixiang Opera Troupe, Cheng Ji." The prince pointed at the man kneeling on the ground and opened his mouth to explain to everyone, "Cheng Ji and Liao Qing'er did have an affair back then. They were in love, but the two did not have a private life. Liao Qing'er received a handwritten letter that year that was not written by Cheng Ji. He didn't even know about the elopement..."

"I don't know?" Chao Xu, the cabinet scholar, frowned, "Is this what the prince meant?"

The prince looked at King Jin coldly, "I have to ask Uncle Wang. Did Uncle Wang find the slave first and then the next thing happened, or did he first find Liao Ai's ability and then the next thing happened? "

Prince Jin's face was extremely ugly, and he felt like things were out of his control!
