Chapter 765: Chapter 204-dust settles (3)
This included the self-destruction of his body when he was injured.
“I never thought that the person I trusted the most would be a spy from Zhou! And you even climbed to such a high position. ” Emperor Sheng Wen’s face was cold.
As for what he was thinking, no one knew.
“You’ve done well. I’m very satisfied. ”
“This Minister is only doing what I should be doing.”
“Go down!” Emperor Sheng Wen waved his hand.
After he left.
Emperor Sheng Wen asked,”how much of what he said is true?”
“It’s hard to say!” Eunuch Zhu shook his head.
Ji Dongyang was dead, and the news about his identity had spread.
The dead can not testify.
Even if he didn’t believe it, he had to.
“So many people have died all of a sudden. Tomorrow’s imperial court will be lively again.” Emperor Sheng Wen laughed mockingly.
Eunuch Zhu understood what he meant.
With so many official positions, the Imperial court would probably be in a heated argument again.
As the saying went,”when you’re done singing, I’ll take the stage.” There was no shortage of important positions that the first Prince and the other factions would not let go of.
The position of the chief divine Constable of the God Slayer sect was especially important.
“Did you find out? How many people have joined forces to deal with ninth brother this time?” Emperor Sheng Wen asked.
“The first Prince, second Prince, and third Prince. As for whether the other princes made a move, we are still investigating.”
“It’s alright. ” Emperor Sheng Wen nodded.
“How’s Xia Bowang’s injury?”
“I’m seriously injured, but it’s not a big deal. I’ll be able to recover after resting for a while.” Eunuch Zhu said.
“There were two more true dragons in the end?”
“Yes.”
“Take them down together. The three true dragons can do a lot of things.”
“This old servant understands.” Eunuch Zhu replied.
“Transfer all the people from Consort Shu’s maiden family to important positions. Then, send people to monitor them in secret. If there are any unusual movements, take them down immediately.”
Consort Shu was the ninth Prince’s mother.
Now that the ninth Prince had failed, he was afraid that something might happen, so he had to act early.
Otherwise, it would be a little troublesome when they made a move.
With Emperor Sheng Wen’s means, how could he not have considered it?
He stood up from the Dragon Throne and walked to the window, looking at the sky outside.
“I’m very curious who will stand out. ”
……
Azure Dragon square.
The third Prince’s Mansion.
In the study.
The young woman in white walked in from outside and sat down beside him. She took a sip of tea from the teacup beside her and said with a serious expression,”the matter is a little different from what we guessed.”
“Has ninth brother turned the tables?” The third Prince asked.
“No, I didn ‘t!” The Woman in White shook her head.
He then explained the situation in detail.
After listening.
The third Prince’s eyes sparkled.”I’m afraid that Ji Dongyang’s matter is not as simple as it seems. There must be some secrets that we don’t know about. There’s also Lei Yuantai. His appearance is just too timely. ”
“Not bad!” The Woman in White nodded.
“If everything is too coincidental, it must be intentional. Let’s make a bold assumption. If Ji Dongyang was bribed by ninth brother or one of his men, why would he risk his life to help the ninth Prince when the ninth Prince had lost his power? He even found an excuse for himself and made up that he was from Zhou state? In the end, he even killed all the officials and nobles, including the sixteenth Prince and the others?”
They looked at each other.
The two fell into deep thought.
Suddenly.
The third Prince’s eyes flickered.”I think I’ve guessed something.”
“Speak!”
“He wants to muddy the waters so that more people can enter. Many of the people attending his wedding are our people. If we destroy them, it will be a great loss for us. Our influence in the Imperial court will be reduced to the minimum. This will give the other princes a chance. Even if they have no ambition, at this moment, they will still fight for it. ”
He paused for a moment and snorted.
“He’s still not satisfied. We’ve schemed against him so badly. He wants to take revenge crazily. Even if he’s not having a good time, he still wants to drag us into it!”
“You’re right! Perhaps this is his true goal. ” The Woman in White nodded.
“If Ji Dongyang manages to get himself out of this, then no matter how many people he has killed or how crazy he is, this matter has nothing to do with him. He is also a victim! Otherwise, he wouldn’t have just been demoted and kept in the Imperial Clan Court, but would have been taken away by the Imperial Clan Court. ” The third Prince said.
“Logically speaking, someone of Ji Dongyang’s status would not serve him and even risk his life to accompany him to the end.”
The third Prince shook his head.”There’s limited information. It’s hard to guess.”
He paused for a moment.
“No matter what, Ji Dongyang’s death is the best news for us. Now that the God Slayer sect’s chief divine Constable is vacant, there’s also a Vice Chief divine Constable, and the sacred Martial Arts department’s martial chieftain. Three important positions have been vacated in a row, so we must fight for them no matter what. ”
“The first Prince and the others are probably thinking the same.” The White-clothed woman said.
“The Eight Immortals crossing the sea each show their own abilities. Let’s see whose means are better.” The third Prince sneered.
The two of them began to conspire.
They were discussing how to maximize their benefits and snatch an important position in the Imperial court.
Purgatory.
The 12th sword put down his teacup and stood up from his chair.
“I should go back.”
“Yes.” The eldest Princess calmly replied.
“Your Highness, take care! I’ll see you again next time. ” “Yes, Your Majesty.” Sword 12 bowed respectfully and left.
Zhang Yu locked the door and followed.
He left purgatory.
All the way to the hall on the first floor.
