"How is the situation now?" Zhao Xingyu asked in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty has allowed Zhao Jin to stay in the palace at night for the past two days, waiting for the evil ghost to appear, and then capture the evil ghost."
The prince frowned, "Then I asked her not to show up for these two days."
"No," Xu You shook his head and rejected, "She will show up tonight."
"Your Majesty has now doubted whether the evil ghost is real or fake. We must establish the existence of the evil ghost before we can possibly force Zhao Jin to be sacrificed alive."
Zhao Xingyu was silent for a moment, "National Master, what if this evil ghost is caught?"
He stared at Xu You, clasping one hand behind his back, and asked, "At that time, the situation would only get worse."
After saying this, Zhao Xingyu paced around the room, his brows furrowed tightly and his hands clasped behind his back.
Xu You stood aside, watching Zhao Xingyu walking back and forth, and said quietly: "Your Highness, there is no need to be so anxious, even if Zhao Jin saw through our plan and even threatened to catch the ghost himself."
"But, with so many imperial guards, didn't they say they wanted to catch the devil before? Now, have any of them been caught?"
Zhao Xingyu stopped and looked sideways at Xu You, "What do you mean by the Imperial Master, Zhao Jin doesn't dare?"
"Heh," Xu You laughed out loud, "Does any of those imperial guards dare to do that?"
Zhao Xingyu lowered his long eyelashes, and the hands behind his back tightened and loosened, then loosened and tightened again, "What the Imperial Master said makes sense."
Even so, the wrinkles between Zhao Xingyu's brows did not relax at all, and his eyes fell into the void, making people wonder what he was thinking.
After a while, Zhao Xingyu released his hands behind his back, walked toward the door of the hall, and loudly said to the guard at the door: "Go and summon Qi Shaoqing, be careful, don't let anyone discover you."
"Your Highness, does he have an idea?" Xu You's eyes moved slightly, and he turned around to look at Zhao Xingyu, who had his back turned to him.
He couldn't see Zhao Xingyu's face clearly, and could only hear the other party's voice, "What the Imperial Master just said is not unreasonable."
Zhao Xingyu turned around and looked up at Xu You. Although there was still some residual anxiety in his expression, he was more calm.
"However, the Imperial Master must not forget that when Zhao Jin faced the killers sent by Zhao Ying, he did not flinch at all."
As he spoke, he lowered his eyes and said softly: "Zhao Jin is a ruthless character, so he is not necessarily afraid."
Xu You's expression suddenly darkened.
If Zhao Jin is not afraid and really catches the devil...
Zhao Xingyu glanced at Xu You and said quietly: "National Master, our top priority is to clear up the relationship between this matter."
"Besides," Zhao Xingyu laughed, "Although it's a pity that we can't get rid of Zhao Jin, we have spent so much effort and we can't let all our efforts go in vain."
"What can your Highness do?"
Zhao Xingyu walked to the main seat, sat down slowly, and put one hand on the black table, "Has Zhao Jin guessed that we are the ones behind the scenes?"
It was Xu You who claimed that a living sacrifice was needed to suppress the evil ghosts. Since Zhao Jin had exposed that this was man-made and not the work of evil ghosts, he naturally knew that Xu You was involved in this matter.
Now Zhao Xingyu asked this just because he wanted to know if Zhao Jin knew that his handwriting was in it.
Xu You stared at Zhao Xingyu with a heavy gaze.
If Zhao Xingyu knew that Zhao Jin didn't know that his handiwork was in it, he might not care about it.
Thinking of the scene on the palace road, when Zhao Jin revealed that he had colluded with the prince, he did not refute, Xu You said "ha" lightly.
Zhao Xingyu felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by Xu You, as if Xu You had read through all his thoughts.
Although he originally sought Xu You's cooperation, it seems that he has never been able to see through Xu You's true thoughts for so long.
"Zhao Jin, I already know." Xu You said slowly, each word clearly reaching Zhao Xingyu's ears.
Zhao Xingyu's expression was distorted for a moment, but soon returned to normal.
After enduring it again and again, Zhao Xingyu couldn't help but ask: "How did Zhao Jin know that Gu Ye was involved?"
He even suspected that Xu You betrayed him.
Otherwise, he had never openly participated in this matter and was even a "victim". How could Zhao Jin doubt him?
"Your Highness, it is impossible for me to send someone to pretend to be a ghost under the eyes of the imperial guards during such a short period of time in the palace."
Xu You walked towards Zhao Xingyu and sat down directly on the Grand Master's chair next to him, "Besides, although His Highness was injured, there are no other problems except for a black handprint."
"Zhao Jin has doubts, which is completely normal."
It's just that he confirmed this suspicion.
Zhao Xingyu's breathing became a little heavier, his lips moved a few times, and finally he reached out to hold the tea cup, and the veins on the back of his hand popped out.
"Guhui told her that if Zhao Jin catches her tonight, she will bear all the blame."
"Your Highness, do you think His Majesty and Zhao Jin will believe it?"
A sneer appeared at the corner of Zhao Xingyu's mouth, "Of course I won't believe it, but what I want is their disbelief!"
"Only if we don't believe it, we can do the next thing."
Xu You narrowed his eyes, "His Highness wants to pin this crime on someone else."
"good."
Zhao Xingyu calmed down a little, and the hand holding the teacup relaxed some of its strength. He picked up the teacup and took a sip of hot tea.
"If we can't find out, it will only make my father more fearful and angry, and he won't give up."
"No matter how clean we clean up, there will still be traces. If my father investigates too deeply, there is no guarantee that we won't find any clues."
Zhao Xingyu slowly explained his plan one by one, "In this case, we can definitely deliver the person behind this to the hands of the emperor."
"Then, Your Highness, how do you plan to deliver it?"
Xu You made a fist with his right hand, coughed lightly, then relaxed his body and leaned on the back of the Grand Master's chair. Without waiting for Zhao Xingyu to speak, he continued: "Third prince? Fourth prince?"
"Exactly."
"However, it may be difficult to have irrefutable evidence that can directly lead them to step down."
"There is no need for ironclad evidence," Zhao Xingyu put the tea cup on the table and sighed, "The ironclad evidence can certainly make these two people completely unable to stand up, but now is not the time."
As the prince and the crown prince of Zhao, he should be inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people.
Not only was Zhao Xingzhi not a direct descendant, but he was also not the eldest son, so he was not qualified to compete with him.
The father relied on his eldest son to obtain this position. In order to make his throne more legitimate, as long as he was alive and did not make a big mistake, the father would never establish another crown prince.
However, the father still wanted to train the third child.
It's just for the sake of balance in the court.
Once this balance is broken, it may not be a good thing for him.
However, he could disgust Zhao Xingzhi and Zhao Xingzhi and make his father lose trust in them.
To prevent Zhao Xingzhi from getting more and more powerful.
