It was rare for King Yan to go to court, and he severely reprimanded the courtiers who criticized the third prince, and publicly stated the doubts raised by Mo Zifei, and ordered Dali Temple to thoroughly investigate the case, and must return the third prince's innocence.

As a result, Dali Temple has been investigating for a month, and just found out what the "love Gu" is. The progress is extremely slow, not to mention how to solve the Gu on the third prince's body.Later, King Yan thought that since Mo Zifei had seen Love Gu before, he might have a solution, so he summoned Mo Zifei to have a try.Sure enough, it only took three days for Mo Zifei to unravel the love gu on the third prince.The king of Yan was overjoyed, and valued Mo Zifei even more, and ordered Mo Zifei to assist Dali Temple in supervising the case.

Half a month later, Dali Temple finally found out the truth.

Love Gu came from the hand of the big servant girl serving by Concubine Zhen's side.Concubine Zhen was originally a woman from a small tribe in the south, and the maid next to her was her good sister who was married to Jinlan when she was not in the palace.

According to the investigation results, the eldest maid gave the seventh prince's former concubine the love gu, ordered the concubine to lure the third prince, and took the opportunity to give the third prince a love gu.The original intention was to make the third prince fall in love with this concubine so that the third prince would obey the concubine.Unexpectedly, on the way, they were broken by the Seventh Prince. The Seventh Prince, who didn't know about it, ruined their plan, directly beat the concubine and kicked them out of the palace.Therefore, the third prince returned to the mansion ahead of time, and when the love voodoo broke out, the first woman he saw was the housekeeper's nanny, and that's why he made the previous unorthodox move.

The eldest maid was taken away for interrogation, and resisted the torture and interrogation all night, refusing to say anything.And when the concubine was found by the people of Dali Temple, her body had already rotted.After confirming that he was killed with a knife, his face was scratched.It was characterized as murder.

When Mo Zifei reported this result to Queen Yan, King Yan, who was so angry that his body trembled, took people to Ziyao Palace where Concubine Zhen lived.

The outside of Ziyao Palace has long been surrounded by layers of guards.

The Seventh Prince was pacing outside the palace gate with an anxious expression on his face.The parrot was also anxious, and wanted to fly over the palace wall to see the situation inside for the Seventh Prince.But as soon as he got close, the guards not far away raised their bows and arrows and aimed at the parrot, as if they were going to shoot the parrot down.

"Stop!" The seventh prince stopped immediately, and hurriedly chased after the parrot again, "Xiao Wu, come back quickly!"

A dozen or so arrow feathers were aimed at the parrot, ready to go.The parrot was startled by this battle, and immediately flew back, crashing into the seventh prince's arms, trembling.

The Seventh Prince was feeling restless at the moment, he touched the parrot perfunctorily as a comfort, looked at the chief guard guarding the palace gate, and asked anxiously, "When can I go in to see my concubine?"

"Your Highness, without His Majesty's order, I'm afraid you won't be able to see Concubine Zhen." The chief guard replied sternly.

"What mistake did the concubine mother make? Why can't I see the concubine mother?" The seventh prince asked angrily.

"I don't know." The head guard replied.

As soon as the words fell, there was a burst of eager footsteps outside, and the voice of someone who hadn't seen King Yan had already passed, "I'm here to tell you, what kind of big mistake did your mother and concubine make!"

The Seventh Prince looked back in astonishment, and saw King Yan looking at him coldly, even with a disgust that he had never seen before.After taking a step, his figure staggered slightly, and then he realized that he knelt down and saluted immediately, "I will see my father."

"Hmph!" King Yan snorted coldly, ignored him, waved his hand at the chief guard, and strode towards Ziyao Palace.

The accompanying eunuchs followed behind and walked in.Mo Zifei glanced at the parrot in the arms of the Seventh Prince, picked it up and stuffed it into his sleeve, then glanced at the Seventh Prince who was still kneeling on the ground, and whispered to him, "Go in."

Mo Zifei stepped into Ziyao Palace leisurely.The Seventh Prince was not in the mood to worry about the parrot at this time, so he got up and followed in after hearing the words.

"Look at what you've done!" King Yan threw the investigation results on Concubine Zhen's face.

Concubine Zhen knelt on the ground, picked up sheets of paper, and quickly scanned them.The hand holding the paper trembled slightly, and looked up at King Yan in astonishment, "Your Majesty, Xiujuan was wronged, she would never do such a shocking thing! She has no grievances or enmity with the third prince, so how can she do that?" To frame him on purpose?"

"No injustice? Ha!" King Yan snorted coldly, his eyes were like a cold knife, stabbing at Zhenfei, "She is indeed without injustice, but what about you?"

"Your Majesty is suspicious of my concubine?" Concubine Zhen felt a chill in her heart, her legs went limp, and she sat down on the ground, tears slowly falling from her eyes, and asked in a voice, "In Your Majesty's heart, the concubine is already so unbearable." ?"

"Isn't it?" King Yan asked coldly.

Bending down, stretching out his hand, and pinching her chin, King Yan looked at her with extreme disappointment, and said with a heartbroken sentence, "Back then you could deceive me for the sake of glory and wealth, and entered the palace as a concubine with the body of a willow. Now for your Son, naturally he would do such a vicious thing as murdering the Third Prince!"

"Chen Qie didn't..." Concubine Zhen shook her head, blood came from the corner of her mouth, and tears rolled down her eyes, "Chen Qie has never done anything to offend His Majesty... Chen Qie has never done anything... "

The Seventh Prince was originally standing aside, watching King Yan reprimanding his mother and concubine blankly. He didn't know the cause and effect, so he didn't dare to act rashly to cause trouble for his mother and concubine.But now seeing the concubine mother's aggrieved appearance, she immediately rushed over without caring about anything else.

He knelt next to Concubine Zhen, picked up the paper that was left on the side, and after reading it at a glance, he looked at King Yan in disbelief, "Just because of such an unreasonable thing, Father, you treat Mother and Concubine like this? Don't say that the third brother is against human relations by having an affair with his ministers and concubines? How could the concubine be so stupid as to use the concubines of the ministers to confuse the third brother? This is clearly someone deliberately framed!"

King Yan was contradicted by the Seventh Prince and kicked him in anger, "You rebellious son, you dare to slander your elder brother! You are not filial or fraternal, and you are in vain as a minister!"

"Xiao'er!" Concubine Zhen rushed over to hug Seventh Prince Lou Xiao, and looked at King Yan with hatred, "Come to me if you have anything, don't make things difficult for Xiao'er!"

"Mother Concubine, I'm fine." The Seventh Prince comforted me softly, and reached out to wipe away the tears on Zhen Concubine's face, "Mother Concubine, don't cry, I will definitely protect Mother Concubine."

The Seventh Prince gently hugged Concubine Zhen, then let go, knelt and took two steps forward, looking at King Yan with a solemn expression, "Father is suspicious of Mother and Concubine, and it is only because of my son. Since Father believes that Mother is The concubine had delusional thoughts and murdered the third brother because of her son, then you..."

"Xiao'er, stop talking..." Zhenfei sobbed and stretched out her hand to pull the seventh prince.

"Let him continue." King Yan said with a serious face.

The Seventh Prince straightened his waist, looked directly at King Yan, and continued, "You just need to abolish the status of the prince, once and for all, completely cut off the thoughts of the mother and concubine, and also put an end to the suspicion of the father."

"Okay, okay, great!" King Yan glared at Concubine Zhen angrily, "This is the good son you taught!"

"Your Majesty, forgive me. Xiao'er was just talking in a moment of anger. Please forgive Xiao'er for your majesty's love in the past. There are thousands of mistakes, and they are all the fault of my concubine. Please forgive Xiao'er." Concubine Zhen climbed to the ground. King Yan kowtowed at his feet to plead guilty, and his forehead hit the blue and white stone ground, and his skin burst into blood immediately.

"Mother and concubine!" The seventh prince immediately went to stop her.

King Yan watched coldly, then looked at the anxious Seventh Prince, "Lou Xiao."

The Seventh Prince looked back at him.

"Do you know that my favorite prince has always been you?"

The Seventh Prince was taken aback when he heard the words, "I don't know."

"I hate Concubine Zhen for deceiving me, but I still can't let go of my love for her. You are the only child between me and her. I treat you coldly and stay away from you, but I never miss you. A good master, I will teach you knowledge and teach you martial arts. I have chosen thousands of choices for your companion, and I have chosen the posthumous son of Marquis Xunnan. You are the one I have watched grow up, and I am suspicious of your mother. Concubine, I have never doubted you. But now, you are here to force me!"

"My son has failed my father's painstaking efforts." The seventh prince bowed his head and said calmly, "Mother and concubine have never been greedy for the glory and splendor of the palace, and my son has never thought about being the crown prince. Please, father Eun Zhun's petition will demote the son to the rank of a commoner."

"Xiao'er, I'm the one who's sorry for you, I'm the one who got you hurt..." Concubine Zhen cried.

Concubine Zhen crawled to King Yan's feet, crying incoherently, "Your Majesty, it's my fault. I shouldn't, I was the one who had delusional thoughts, I was the one who murdered the third prince, everything has nothing to do with Xiao'er..."

"Yes, it's you. It's you, a bitch, who ruined my crown prince." King Yan viciously kicked Concubine Zhen at this moment, kicking her three meters away.

"Mother Concubine!" The Seventh Prince exclaimed, and immediately got up and ran over to help her.

King Yan turned and left, announcing in a cold voice, "The order will be passed down. From now on, the status of the Seventh Prince will be deposed, and he will be banned from the Wuming Palace. The status of Concubine Zhen will be reduced, and she will be demoted to a palace maid. She will be imprisoned in Ziyao Palace. They will never get out of this life. The rest of the people involved in the case, etc., All should be executed by Ling Chi. This case ends here, and if anyone raises this matter in the future, they will all be killed with a stick!"

Concubine Zhen coughed up a mouthful of blood, looked at King Yan's decisive back, and laughed foolishly, "I saw you at the beginning of the year, and you are a brilliant young man. I thought he was my beloved, and I wholeheartedly waited for him to come back and marry me."

"Mother Concubine..." The Seventh Prince choked up and shouted.

"From the Year of Cardamom to the Year of Huaxin, I waited for 11 years——the day he married me, I thought I finally found my happiness. But I didn't expect that this was the beginning of another catastrophe... "

Concubine Zhen looked up to the sky and wept bitterly, as if she was insane.

"I was infatuated, and finally paid by mistake—"

-

The parrot who followed Mo Zifei to leave Ziyao Palace was depressed all the way.It wasn't until Mo Zifei returned to Lefang's residence that he crawled out of his sleeve listlessly.

"Feifei," the parrot looked up at Mo Zifei with tears still in his eyes, with a complicated expression, "You clearly know that the matter of love gu is not the fault of Concubine Zhen and the Seventh Prince, why..."

"Why didn't you stop it?" Mo Zifei asked for her.

The parrot looked at him eagerly, expecting his answer.

"I know that Jin Xiujuan once advised Concubine Zhen to use Love Gu on King Yan, but Concubine Zhen sternly refused and threw the Love Gu away. I also know that the concubine overheard about the Love Gu and took it back. And wanted to use it on the seventh prince. But I never found the opportunity, and then the love gu quietly disappeared."

Mo Zifei narrated calmly, "I even know who stole the love gu, and later killed the concubine to silence it. But so what, why should I stop it?"

The parrot's eyes widened in surprise, almost thinking he was hallucinating.

"If you don't break, you can't stand. Once this incident happened today, all the people around the Seventh Prince were dealt with. The tentacles devouring the silkworm can no longer reach the Seventh Prince. And the place where it hides is probably clear." Mo Zi took it for granted. What's wrong with changing the peace of the world with the lives of dozens of people?"

"Shouldn't your astrologers be all about helping the world and helping the common people, the most heart of a Bodhisattva?" Parrot was stunned by his words, and his three views were shattered.

"Who told you?" Mo Zifei raised his eyebrows and said calmly, "The heaven and the earth are not benevolent, and treat everything as a dog. The way of heaven is to damage what is more than enough and make up for what is not enough. It is a great man."

The heaven and the earth are fair, and treat all things in the world equally.In the eyes of heaven and earth, the lives of dozens of people are different from those of flowers, plants, mountains and rocks?As long as the normal operation of the world can be maintained, what's the point of losing a part?

The same is true for numerologists.As long as the devouring silkworm can be eliminated, everything will start again after all.What is the sacrifice now?

"You! Big villain! You are the big villain! I don't want to talk to you!"

The parrot couldn't accept his point of view, and flapped its wings angrily and flew out.

Rubbing the white dragon jade pendant with his fingertips, Mo Zifei frowned slightly, and murmured in a low voice, "Shouldn't it be like this..."
