After Jun Zifeng explained the matter, he lay down on the bed again, and he battled wits and courage with the two princes of Dongyi Kingdom one after another. He spent too much mental energy. At this moment, his son felt that his head was even more dizzy, and he fell into a deep sleep as soon as he touched the bed.
Finally, he had a dreamless night and slept well until dawn. He felt the sun piercing his face. Jun Zifeng subconsciously raised his hand to block his eyes, only to realize that it was already three o'clock in the morning.
The guard heard him getting up and came in with water for washing, and the food was quickly served.
"What time is it?" Jun Zifeng asked while cleaning his hands.
"It's time to return to the throne, Prince."
At this time? He actually slept until almost noon, which actually saved him a meal.
Jun Zifeng was about to sit down to eat when the secret guard who went to inquire about the situation came back and stood outside the door, waiting to be summoned.
"Come in."
Jun Zifeng said that it would be good to use the sixth prince's information to serve the meal.
"The prince, the sixth prince, was born to Concubine Jing. After giving birth to the sixth prince, he became frail and sickly. He hardly left the palace all the year round. Everyone in the palace forgot about her as a concubine. The sixth prince was born under the influence of several royal brothers.
Grew up under bullying.”
Jun Zifeng nodded, which was consistent with what the Sixth Prince said.
"The Sixth Prince is secretly connected with a Jianghu organization. He has also placed his own informants in various places."
Jun Zifeng paused while holding the chopsticks. The Sixth Prince had hidden his strength so well before. Did the secret guard find out his trump card in just one night?
"Did you encounter any obstacles during your inspection?"
The secret guard was startled and thought about it carefully. It seemed that everything went very smoothly. There must be a monster when things go wrong. Could it be that they were tricked? What they found was what others wanted them to know?
The secret guard replied somewhat uncertainly:
"Hui Shizi, it seems that someone knows that we are investigating, so everything goes smoothly."
Jun Zifeng put the dish into his mouth and smiled instead. He was such a bold boy. After exposing his strength to him, did he want to succeed or become a benevolent person?
"Are there any rumors out there?"
The rumors Jun Zifeng mentioned were naturally referring to Concubine Dan's uncleanness.
Thinking of the wonderful story told by the storyteller, the secret guard's eyes lit up and he cleared his throat.
"Speaking of it, there is a country where a favored concubine more than ten years ago gave birth to a son for the emperor. She became even more proud of her favor and tried to overthrow the emperor's legitimate son and promote her son to the position of crown prince. Unexpectedly, her name was not justified.
, the words did not go smoothly, and the whole court expressed opposition."
The secret guard had a wonderful expression and turned into a storyteller. Even the guards standing beside him were fascinated by what he was saying.
Jun Zifeng was eating, but he didn't expect Jun Lingyun's secret guard to have such talent. If he didn't want to be a secret guard, it would be a good idea to become a storyteller.
Seeing the prince smiling slightly, the secret guard continued his story.
"Not only did this concubine not give up, she actually came up with a shocking plan. Guess what? She actually went to the enemy's country to sow seeds, under the euphemistic name of helping the emperor expand his territory."
The secret guard put away his expression,
"At this time, exclamations rang out, asking how the funeral was going."
He changed back to his storyteller appearance. He raised his hand and wanted to slap the table. Unfortunately, looking at the people listening to him in front of him, he finally didn't dare to slap the table and only put it down gently.
"Predict what will happen next, and listen to the explanation next time!"
After he finished speaking, he stood respectfully with an expressionless face, as if the passionate storyteller just now was not him.
Jun Zifeng and the guards looked at it, and they all doubted life.
"Well, that's a good point. Let's go down."
"My subordinates resign."
The secret guard came out of the door and showed a small proud smile. The prince must have praised him just now.
Jun Zifeng finished his meal and ordered the guards:
"Pack your bags and change places."
Be careful with the ten thousand year ship, not to mention, he also wanted to see if the sixth prince was still able to find him despite his deliberate concealment.
Just when Jun Zifeng was transferring, the Dongyi Kingdom's palace was already in turmoil.
Emperor Dongyi glanced at the ministers below and became furious:
"Now even a storyteller dares to arrange royal affairs! Are you who eat the royal food blind and deaf? Are you still waiting for my orders?"
"My emperor, calm down!"
The ministers fell to their knees.
Dongfang Chenze thought about it in his mind and spoke cautiously.
"Father, the stories they told did not happen in our Dongyi royal family. Why should I care about those villains?"
Emperor Dongyi's eyes glanced sharply at Dongfang Chenze, and he quickly lowered his head.
The emperor was suffocating in his heart, but could not tell the truth to his mouth. In the past ten years, it would be a lie to say that he had not regretted it. In a moment of passion, he listened to Concubine Dan's bewitchment.
Especially when he learned that Concubine Dan's plan had completely failed, he really regretted it, but what could he do? There is no regret medicine in this world. He could only bury the matter and treat it as if it had never happened.
The ministers who knew about the events of that year either resigned and returned home, were convicted for their crimes, or died in unknown circumstances.
It took a lot of effort for him to sleep peacefully.
Agreeing to Dongfang Muze to bring his mother and concubine back was also to avoid future troubles.
If Concubine Dan is left in Yunxiao Kingdom, the truth will be revealed to the world sooner or later. It is better to let her die of illness in her hometown.
Even if Dongfang Muze cannot accept it for a while, he will definitely understand it after thinking about it and thank him as his father.
The king of a country must never leave such a stain and let the world criticize him.
When the ministers below heard Dongfang Chenze's words, they all wondered, yes, the storyteller didn't say it was Dongyi Kingdom's matter, why was the emperor so sensitive?
Only a few elderly ministers had guesses in their minds, but no one dared to say more, for fear that they would be the next to die in vain.
The emperor slapped the table.
"Come here, put all the storytellers who organized the royal family into prison."
Dongfang Chenze took a step forward.
"Father, the stories told by the storyteller are all kinds of weird. There were many stories about the royal family in the past. As long as they are fictional, why would my father go to war and make the people panic?"
The uninformed ministers all admired the eldest prince's courage. Normally, he had never seen the eldest prince with such courage and disobeyed the emperor's orders. Now he actually spoke up for a few common people and confronted the emperor. It was really commendable for his courage.
Unexpectedly, the emperor was furious:
"Guizi! Do you think I am confused?"
Dongfang Chenze knelt down on the ground in fear.
"I don't dare."
But after being frightened, he felt hatred in his heart. His father had been very critical of him before, but today, he actually called him a traitor in front of all the civil and military officials. How could a traitor be the candidate to inherit the throne?
Dongfang Chenze suddenly remembered what Jun Zifeng said to him:
"If the emperor really protects Dongfang Muze at all costs, eldest prince, do you still want to recognize this father who has never put you in his eyes?"
Dongfang Chenze's ambition began to grow wildly at this moment. The Crown Prince of Yunxiao Kingdom was right. Since his father wouldn't give it to him, he had no choice but to get it himself.
He raised his body, looked directly at the emperor, and asked loudly.
"Father, Prince, are you really your son? Is the blood flowing through him the blood of our Dongyi royal family?"
