Zhao Jin said nothing more and turned his attention to Bai Wu, "How is the situation in the East Palace?"
Chi Yi couldn't see any clues from Zhao Jin's face. It seemed that this incident had an impact on him, but it didn't seem to have such a big impact.
Listening to the conversation between Chi Yi and Zhao Jin, Bai Wu, who was unaware of the situation, was confused.
However, he was not curious about it.
"My subordinates have been keeping an eye on the East Palace these days."
Bai Wu said solemnly, "When the prince was in coma, everyone in the East Palace was really in panic."
"Yesterday, Xu You came back and went to the East Palace to perform a ritual ceremony."
"But the door of the palace is closed, and only Xu You, the prince, and the two prince's attendants are inside, so the specific situation is unknown. The news that came out is that Xu You is doing something."
Zhao Jin's eyes narrowed slightly, "So, except for the two prince's servants, no one saw it?"
"No."
Zhao Jin clicked on the desk and said, "Continue."
"Today at nine o'clock, the prince woke up and quickly fell asleep again. Now he is completely awake."
Bai Wu continued in a deep voice: "But my subordinates discovered that before the palace was haunted, the prince had visited Xu You's residence in the palace."
"Okay, I understand." Zhao Jin waved his palm outward, "You guys can go down first."
Chi Yi and Bai Wu bowed to Zhao Jin and exited the study.
That day, Zhao Jin sat alone in the study for a long time.
…
A man in black suddenly appeared in the hall.
Even though this was not the first time Shouquan encountered such a scene, he was still shocked.
Before he could recover, he heard Zhao Qian's voice, "Shouquan, take them down."
Shouquan was slightly startled and did not dare to ask any more questions, so he quickly responded: "Yes."
After everyone left, Zhao Qian sat on the bed, leaning against the wall, and said in a deep voice: "How?"
"Your Majesty, my subordinates have checked the entire clan. Except for Marquis Xuanping, no one was born in the yang year, yang month, yang day."
Zhao Qian looked stunned, which undoubtedly meant that he could only choose to bury Zhao Jin alive as a sacrifice.
On one side is his guilt-ridden son, on the other is the country, the country, and his own fortune and life.
Zhao Qian took a long breath and said, "Here comes someone!"
Shouquan had not gone far, and had been standing outside the hall waiting. When he heard Zhao Qian's voice, he immediately opened the door and went in.
"His Majesty?"
"Master Xuan Guo has an audience." Zhao Qian grasped the quilt with his right hand and said in a deep voice.
"yes."
When Shouquan came over, he didn't see Xu You.
"Taoist Priest, I wonder where the Imperial Preceptor is? Your Majesty has summoned the Imperial Preceptor to see you."
The young Taoist priest who was stopped by Shouguan was one of the people who followed Xu You to Zhao Qian's palace that day to perform the ritual.
"The Imperial Master is in the alchemy room. Father-in-law, please wait for a moment. Pindao will go and inform the Imperial Master immediately."
Shouquan smiled and narrowed his eyes, "Okay, I'm sorry to trouble you."
The young Taoist priest nodded slightly, turned around and entered a room.
"National Preceptor, Your Majesty has summoned you."
Xu You, who was looking down at what he was looking at, raised his head and laughed loudly: "Hahaha, it seems that our Majesty has already figured it out."
The young Taoist priest also said with a smile: "It seems that our plan will succeed soon. By then, the Zhao country will be in chaos, and it is a good time for us to take action!"
"Well," Xu You said with a smile on his face, "you all should be well prepared."
"clear."
Xu You stood up, tidied his clothes, suppressed his smile, then opened the door and walked out.
"Master Imperial Master." Shou Quan raised his head and saw Xu You, and saluted respectfully.
People with such magical abilities should never be offended.
"Thank you, father-in-law." Although Xu You looked down on eunuchs in his heart, he was quite polite to Shouguan on the surface.
Shouquan's eyes narrowed into slits with a smile, "The Imperial Master's words are serious."
The two of them walked towards Zhao Qian's palace together.
When Xu You walked into Zhao Qian's bedroom, he looked up and saw that Zhao Qian looked very bad.
Thinking about it, Zhao Qian felt uncomfortable after making this decision.
but……
Xu You sneered in his heart, but no matter what, Zhao Qian would still choose Jiangshan Sheji and his own life.
At the same time, Xu You never understood why Zhao Qian was struggling and uncomfortable?
Zhao Jin was just the son of King Liang. Zhao Qian and King Liang had never dealt with each other. It could be said that it was life or death. There was no sense of brotherhood at all.
Would sacrificing a mere Marquis Xuanping make someone like Zhao Qian show such a struggling and hesitant look?
Xu You didn't believe it.
Zhao Jin is very talented, even if Xu You doesn't want to see Zhao Jin anymore, he must admit this.
However, it is understandable that Zhao Qian would cherish his talent after losing such a capable minister like Zhao Jin.
But Xu You felt that Zhao Qian was not only sorry, but also guilty.
What are you feeling guilty about? Because you used Zhao Jin as a living sacrifice?
As his thoughts were racing, Xu You had already walked in front of Zhao Qian.
"My lord, please see your majesty."
Zhao Qian said a little tiredly: "Get up."
After saying that, he gently waved his hand outward.
Shou Quan understood and immediately led all the palace people to retreat, and did not stop until he was sure that the conversation inside could not be heard.
"I have decided." Zhao Qian exhaled slowly, "Although I feel sorry for Marquis Xuanping, for the sake of Zhao's country, I can only sacrifice Marquis Xuanping."
"I want to ask the Imperial Master one more thing."
Zhao Qian stared at Xu You with burning eyes and asked word by word: "How long can the evil ghost be suppressed after using Xuan Pinghou as a living sacrifice? How long can the dragon veins be kept intact?"
"There will never be any future troubles." Xu You spoke clearly and said slowly.
Zhao Qian murmured to himself, "There will never be any future troubles..."
He closed his eyes, opened them again, and finally said "good".
If he can avoid future troubles forever, Zhao Jin can be considered a worthy death.
As for his debt to Zhao Jin, Zhao Qian's fingers unconsciously rubbed the quilt and his eyes were slightly focused.
He heard that Zhao Jin liked a woman named Chu Weiqing.
In this case, let's simply add Zhao Jin's title, and give Chu Weiqing the imperial edict to treat Zhao Jin's subordinates well so that they can have enough food and clothing.
This can be regarded as compensation for Zhao Jin.
Thinking of this, the guilt in Zhao Qian's heart finally dissipated a little.
In the final analysis, he just wanted to stabilize the state of Zhao, and he had to sacrifice some people when necessary.
Zhao Qian exhaled slowly, "Does the Imperial Master have any plans? What needs to be done?"
"I will lay out the formation. Your Majesty will call Marquis Xuanping and introduce him into the formation. Then you only need to make Marquis Xuanping stay in the formation for half an hour."
"After that, I will knock Marquis Xuanping unconscious directly in the formation, and then bury Marquis Xuanping alive at the place chosen by me."
Xu You reminded: "The coffin must be made of ebony wood, and before burial, a wound needs to be made on each of Xuanpinghou's limbs."
"When is the right time?" Zhao Qian asked, frowning.
