Why do you want me to repay your sister's life? "The crown prince hid behind the wardrobe and asked in a trembling voice," She committed suicide.

"You and Prince Jin are not good people, relying on your power and influence to humiliate us innocent girls. In any case, Prince Jin has already turned into a ghost to repay the debt, and the things that you have lost in this, you even borrowed the good skin of the crown prince to shamelessly live on in this world. Today, I want to seek justice for those dancers that you have played with."

The Crown Prince suppressed the drowsiness in his head and shouted weakly, "Someone come! Someone is trying to kill the Crown Prince! Somebody come!"

Ming Zhu played with the dagger in her hand, fiercely stabbing out at him, "If you were to shout, no one will come. You've already spent everyone, you're afraid that others will disturb our fun, have you forgotten?"

The crown prince grabbed her wrist, the sharp blade was pointed straight at his eyes, he could clearly feel the oppression of the cold light, "Someone come quickly, let me tell you, if I am lucky enough to escape from your hands today, I will tear you, this wicked woman, into a thousand pieces."

"Crown Prince," Mingzhu laughed faintly, and then pushed the dagger two inches closer to him, "You're under the influence of the incense, so it's better to save some energy and obediently admit defeat."

The Crown Prince blocked the dagger with all his might, gritting his teeth, "I was wondering why I felt so dizzy every time I saw you. I thought you had read too many books, it turns out it's you slut's doing."

Ming Zhu held the dagger with both hands and stabbed it into his chest. "But that's true, with a talent like yours that is even inferior to the Princess Poyang, it's no wonder that the Emperor wanted to pass on the position of Crown Prince to her."

Although Ming Zhu's strength was far inferior to his, his body was covered in incense and he couldn't exert too much strength, so he couldn't help but get stabbed in the stomach. He was in so much pain that he curled up into a ball, but he did his best to resist: "You bitch, you made me feel warm towards you in vain, but you actually laughed at me from behind my back."

"Whether your enthusiasm is for me or for the beautiful body of a young woman, you have your own understanding," Ming Zhu said with a disdainful smile. "I'm laughing at you from behind, don't you know that the entire palace is laughing at the crown prince?"

The Crown Prince was so agitated by her sarcasm that he turned around. He was afraid that she would stab him a few more times, so he used his hand to knock away the dagger that was covered in blood, "I am a vaunted Lord. You sluts can look down on me too. You're courting death."

Ming Zhu absolutely did not expect that the incense in his body could be so strong. She hurriedly used her hands and feet to crawl over and pick up the dagger. The Crown Prince was a bit more focused, and he didn't feel as heavy anymore. He quickly blocked her path and pressed her down to the ground.

"Men! Where did all of you die? Men, quick!" The Crown Prince sat up and shouted. Finally, amidst the eerie silence, he heard a few footsteps.

Ming Zhu twisted her body into a hideous mask under the crown prince's hands and said, "You, the crown prince, will not be able to sit here for long, you will definitely die a horrible death."

The crown prince, who had been bedraggled under her blade, was now burning with anger. He raised his hand and gave her a resounding slap, "You and your sister Yu Zhu are both slut who don't know what's good for you. Since you want me to die like this, I'll let you bleed from your seven orifices first."

Ming Zhu was beaten until blood seeped from the corner of her mouth, but her eyes were still filled with unyielding hatred, "I curse you for not dying a good death, you won't have a good ending. You have been immersed in your red silk gown all day, and you still don't know that the incense contains poison, right?"

The Crown Prince was surprised for a moment and angrily pinched her chin, almost crushing her small bones. "You slut, you actually dared to poison me. Quickly hand over the antidote!"

The guards outside the door had already kicked open the door and drawn their swords to surround them. Ming Zhu revealed a smile filled with despair, and softly whispered into his ear, "This pill has no antidote, do your best."

Chu Zongge was still in the Xinyang Hall waiting for news from Zhu Tong, but he saw Xue Ronghua bringing him to the palace in a hurry.

"Why are you guys here?" Chu Zongge was puzzled, "I did not see any trace of Zhu Tong in the palace, did you find him outside?"

Xue Ronghua took a deep breath and looked at Little Zhui, telling her to retreat out of the palace.

When Chu Zongge saw Little Zhui's figure getting further and further away, he was still at a loss, "Do you have something urgent to tell me?

Xue Ronghua revealed an enigmatic smile, and said softly: "Zhu Tong has a problem."

Chu Zongge was shocked by her words, "Didn't I still not find Zhu Tong? What problem could there be, I bought her from the slave market."

"I found this in Zhu Tong's room," Xue Ronghua hurriedly opened her handkerchief, "This is Noble Consort Kang's handwriting, look at what she has written."

Chu Zongge took the handkerchief and carefully read through it. His eyes were filled with disbelief and shock, "This is a handkerchief left behind by the Noble Consort Kang. How did you find it in Zhu Tong's room?"

Xue Ronghua became serious and said: "Didn't you ask Zhu Tong to search Prince Jin's body, and also let her go to the crown prince's mansion to look for information? But Zhu Tong still reported everything to you."

"Indeed," Chu Zongge said thoughtfully. "I thought that with her abilities, she would gain nothing by hiding from me."

"Empress Chen or the crown prince would definitely destroy this extremely important handkerchief immediately if they obtain it, so Zhu Tong should have found this handkerchief while inspecting the poison in Prince Jin and hid it on her body. He didn't tell you to keep bringing it into the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Chu Zongge's face darkened, "So it turns out that Zhu Tong is someone that someone else arranged for us, but I have actually been kept in the dark this whole time."

"It's just that we don't know who this other person is," Xue Ronghua said as she looked over the Empress Chen Crown Prince and the others in his mind. "Right now, the Prince Jin of the three forces have completely collapsed.

"Who else could it be if not the Empress Chen," Chu Zongge shook his head dejectedly. "If the Empress Chen is in the open, but if it was anyone else, they would be enemies in the shadows.

"I keep having the feeling that the person behind the scenes is an extremely dangerous person," Xue Ronghua narrowed her eyes, "He tried to use Zhu Tong to spy on the changes in the Great Qin Empire, so she's probably playing an extremely big game of chess."

Chu Zongge pondered for a moment, and said: "Zhu Tong is from the Chiron, she couldn't have been sent here by the Chiron Imperial Family, right?"

"It's possible, maybe the Chiron is the way to send spies here through the slave market."

"The Chiron Imperial Family," In Chu Zongge's mind, the events from his previous life once again surfaced, "If it was someone sent by the Chiron Imperial Family, then it would really conform to the style of the Shiron Emperor."

Xue Ronghua's eyes flashed, "That little sister of yours, I remember that Princess Poyang had just returned from the Chiron."

"Zhu Tong came to our side about two or three years ago, but Princess Poyang only returned a few days ago," Chu Zongge said as he let out a light sigh, "Princess Poyang will also not help the Chiron Imperial Family to cause harm to their own country."

"Then do you remember when Zhu Tong tested the Prince Jin's poison, she once said that even the poison doctors that knew him couldn't tell, that this kind of rare poison could only exist in the Chiron, and it was also stated in the Noble Consort Kang's blood book that both she and the Mrs. Heyi were poisoned by the Empress Chen, but even the royal doctors couldn't detect the existence of the poison, which means that the three of them might have been poisoned by the Chiron. Then, who exactly is sending the poison over to the Empress Chen?"

Chu Zongge looked at her blankly, such a natural and smooth reasoning seemed to be well-prepared, "I don't think the Princess Poyang will be one to meddle in this dispute."

"She is the biological daughter of the Empress Chen, the biological sister of the Crown Prince," Xue Ronghua said faintly. "How can you guarantee that the relationship that you and her had with each other since childhood didn't have the slightest bit of scheming in it?"

Chu Zongge went silent for a moment, then said: "If Princess Poyang is also participating, then we have no choice but to take precautions."

Xue Ronghua sighed slowly and laughed: "You seem to be really reluctant to leave Princess Poyang."

"Don't misunderstand, she's my, Yuan Su's, little sister. I don't have any other feelings for her," Chu Zongge hurriedly explained, but his eyes had dimmed down.

"Actually, the reasoning that I've said earlier was mostly my own conjecture," Xue Ronghua comforted softly. "Princess Poyang might be aware of the things that mother is doing, but she is only an innocent provider."

"But we still do not know where Zhu Tong went," Chu Zongge's eyes were still gloomy, "Even if we managed to guess that the Princess Poyang has some ulterior motives, it would only be adding another helper that we need to be on guard against in the Empress Chen camp."

"With this, no matter how many helpers Empress Chen has, it's fine," Xue Ronghua said as she proudly raised the handkerchief in her hand. "We don't care where Zhu Tong has gone to, but don't think about who is controlling her.

Chu Zongge lowered his head and smiled, "There's no time to lose. In order to prevent any problems, let's go to Imperial Study right now."

"The emperor should not be in the Imperial Study at this time. He has always been with the Princess Poyang," Xue Ronghua called out a guard and asked, "Go and find out where the emperor is right now."

The guard returned after a while. "In reply to the wangfei's words, the emperor is now alone in the Luan Feng Palace."

Chu Zongge clapped in surprise and said, "It's precisely the time and place that want to tell the truth about Mrs. Heyi's tragic death in the palace in front of the Emperor.

Xue Ronghua couldn't help but laugh, "That's great, quickly go to the Luan Feng Palace and find a way to inform the emperor of this matter."

Chu Zongge smiled. After being kept in silence as a princess for so many years, he finally had the chance to be proud of himself.

"The Emperor has loved the Mrs. Heyi for many years. When he hears this news, her emotions should fluctuate quite a bit," Xue Ronghua said as she held his hand.

"Of course," Chu Zongge nodded his head, "Once the Empress Chen's power falls, they will bring the crown prince down with them. At that time, I will be the only candidate to be the king."
