Chapter 303 Counterattack

With Zhao Qian's selfish temper, I'm afraid not only will all his guilt disappear, but he will also be angry at him for letting others know about it.

Upon hearing that this was the suggestion of the Imperial Preceptor, the Imperial Physician and Shou Quan immediately remembered that during the last snowstorm, the Imperial Preceptor had also suggested using human beings as sacrifices to heaven.

The imperial doctor immediately felt even more disgusted with Xu You.

Zhao Qian's expression softened a lot. He glanced at Zhao Jin and felt even more guilty.

He originally thought that Zhao Jin told the matter out of anger.

After all, this matter is indeed unfair to Zhao Jin.

But he never thought that Zhao Jin just said that Xu You proposed this matter.

Zhao Qian sighed slowly, "It's just that if Li Gui is real, it will undoubtedly be very dangerous for you to stay in my palace."

"Your Majesty, don't worry, I'm confident." Zhao Jin smiled slightly, looking confident.

Xu You had a gloomy look on his face, he knew that after today, his plan to have Marquis Xuanping be sacrificed alive to suppress the evil ghosts would surely spread throughout the palace.

Once Zhao Qian was picked out, all the dirty water would be poured on him.

Now that the matter has come to this, Xu You simply stopped covering up and simply said: "I know that the Marquis doubts whether this matter is true or not. After all, this evil ghost needs a living sacrifice from the Marquis to suppress it."

"However, if we wait for this evil ghost to come out again, even if we sacrifice the Marquis alive, I'm afraid there will be trouble in the future."

The implication is that he insists on sacrificing Zhao Jin alive today.

Zhao Jin smiled, but there was no smile in his eyes, "Do I know if this was planned by the Imperial Master? After all, the fragrance of the medicine is too much of a coincidence."

"Furthermore, I wonder if it is my misunderstanding, but the Imperial Master seems to be eager to sacrifice me alive." Zhao Jin looked at Xu You with confusion in his eyebrows and his voice was a little soft.

A breath was blocked in his chest. Xu You couldn't control it. His face changed several times, and he finally managed to squeeze out a sentence from his mouth, "It's just that this evil ghost is too ferocious, and I'm just worried about it."

"That's enough!" Zhao Gan shouted and glanced at Xu You, "What Marquis Xuanping said is not unreasonable, let's see if we can catch this evil spirit first!"

"In the past two days, as Marquis Xuanping said, I am allowed to keep Marquis Xuanping in my palace. In addition, I'd like to trouble the Imperial Master to stay with me when the time comes."

Zhao Jin cupped his fists and said, "Yes."

The muscles in Xu You's cheek twitched, and he almost squeezed out one word from the root of his teeth, "Yes."

After such a fuss, Zhao Qian waved his hand a little tiredly, "Everyone, go down."

Shou Quan supported Zhao Qian conspicuously and whispered: "Your Majesty, please rest for a while."

Zhao Qian nodded, and Shou Quan helped Zhao Qian lie down on the bed.

Without staying any longer, Zhao Jin turned around and left Zhao Qian's palace.

Xu You walked behind Zhao Jin. When he reached the palace road and there were no other palace people around, Xu You said sadly: "Marquis Xuanping, you are really sharp-tongued and sharp-tongued. He is very powerful."

Hearing this, Zhao Jin stopped and looked back at Xu You. There was no smile on his face, and his eyes were cold and piercing. "I am not as good as the imperial master, and he and the prince jointly planned such a situation."

"However, it's a pity," Zhao Jin raised his chin slightly, "I'm afraid I will disappoint the Imperial Master and the Crown Prince."

Xu You was secretly shocked that Zhao Jin had already guessed that he and the prince had jointly set up this situation.

However, the matter has come to this, and there is no point in hiding it anymore. They both know it well.

Xu You immediately sneered, "I hope that when Marquis Xuanping sees the ghost, he won't be scared to death."

One of the reasons why so many imperial guards were unable to catch this so-called evil ghost was that they did not dare to really get close because of fear.

How can people dare to fight ghosts and gods?

Zhao Jin laughed when he heard this, "It's better for the Imperial Master to take a closer look and find out."

"However, it's better for the Imperial Master to worry about himself!"

“It’s time for Marquis Xuanping to worry about it!”

Zhao Jin smiled, and when he saw Xu You was about to leave, he suddenly asked with some confusion: "Does the prince know what the imperial master is doing behind his back?"

Xu You's expression condensed slightly, "What does Marquis Xuan Ping mean?"

"I'm just curious, why does the Imperial Master go to such unnecessary lengths, and is there someone behind the matter of calling him a ghost?"

Zhao Jin and Xu You looked at each other, as if they were really just expressing their confusion.

After a while, Xu You threw up his sleeves and left without saying a word.

Looking at Xu You's back, Zhao Jin laughed and said, "Since the plot is on me, I won't let it go."

The prince and the imperial advisor wanted to kill him, so Zhao Jin had no choice but to strike first.



Zhao Jin returned to the Hou Mansion with a cold expression on his face, and immediately summoned Takeda and others.

"Master Hou, what happened?"

Zhao Jin rubbed his eyebrows and briefly explained what happened in the palace.

"Are you crazy, Your Majesty?" Takeda lost his voice: "How long has it been since the last human sacrifice?"

Chi Yi and Bai Wu also looked in disbelief.

"You guys, go check on Xu You." Zhao Jin ordered in a deep voice.

"The identity behind Xu You is probably not simple."

Zhao Jin still couldn't figure out what Xu You's purpose was for targeting him?

There must be something they didn't know about. He had offended Xu You, or Xu You had to get rid of him if he wanted to do something.

"Okay!" Takeda responded directly and said with some worry: "Then, the Marquis will go to His Majesty's palace tonight?"

"Well, wait until the so-called evil ghost comes out."

Chi Yi hesitated and said: "Do you need to make some preparations, Mr. Hou? After all, it is not certain. What if it is really a ghost..."

"Ghosts are afraid of people." Zhao Jin simply said, "The human heart is far more terrifying than ghosts."

"You go and investigate this matter first. You will dig down three feet to get to the bottom of Xu You."

"yes!"

On the other side, after Xu You returned to his residence, he quickly went to the East Palace secretly.

"Master, how are you?" Upon hearing that Xu You was coming, Zhao Xingyu hurried forward to greet him.

Xu You said with a stern face, "Something has happened. Your Highness must clear up all the traces immediately."

Zhao Xingyu's expression changed, "What's going on? Didn't you say that Zhao Jin will be sacrificed alive today? How..."

"You didn't handle that medicine properly."

"The medicine in the incense is what people throw into the incense burner every day. There is absolutely no problem with the spices."

Xu You closed his eyes and said, "Cense burner."

"What's wrong with the incense burner..." Zhao Xingyu suddenly came back to his senses, "The smell of medicine?!"

Xu You responded in a low voice with an angry tone, "I don't know how Zhao Jin's nose is so good. He had smelled something wrong with the incense in Zhao Qian's palace before."

"Today I opened the incense burner, and the imperial doctor confirmed that ironclad grass and bellflower seeds had been burned inside."

After hearing this, Zhao Xingyu knew that their plan had failed.

With his father's suspicion, he will definitely doubt Xu You. If Zhao Jin continues to fan the flames...

Zhao Xingyu took a long breath and frowned.
