imperial capital.
Prince Hong's Mansion.
In the study room, Miss Shen Xian and Chao Yushi looked at the photo beads in front of them and listened to Xia Jingzhi's confession.
Lin Bai sat aside and watched it again with them.
After reading it, Zhao Yushi took a deep breath, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Although it was all expected, but now I hear the truth, I still feel blood dripping."
Even Zhao Yushi, a treacherous man who specializes in playing tricks and people's hearts, felt a little bloody. It is conceivable how appalling these things are.
Miss Shen Xian's expression was solemn, "Just hearing Xia Jingzhi's confession, we already felt a chill. Thousands of years ago, when the first prince, second prince, and twelfth prince went through their lives lightly, they didn't know how desperate they were. "
Zhao Yushi sighed: "Fortunately... all this is coming to an end."
He asked Lin Bai again: "Master Lang, now that Xia Jingzhi's confession has been obtained, I wonder what His Royal Highness Chen Wang plans to do next?"
Lin Bai told His Royal Highness Chen Wang's plan in a simple and clear manner, "His Royal Highness intends to make it public on his birthday and force His Majesty to thoroughly investigate this matter before resigning from office."
Zhao Yushi nodded in agreement, "That should be the case. If this matter is not made public, I am afraid that according to Emperor Chu's character, big things will turn into small things, and eventually it will be nothing."
Zhao Yushi's views on Emperor Chu were almost exactly the same as Lin Bai's.
Both Lin Bai and Chao Yushi saw that the late Emperor Chu lacked decisiveness and determination in dealing with certain matters.
I don't know if he is really old, and he no longer has the ambitions of his prime.
Just like Lin Bai's evaluation of Emperor Chu before...he is neither a wise king nor a foolish king, neither great merit nor great demerit.
As an emperor, externally, he did not expand the territory; internally, he did not keep the territory stable.
Yes, I am ashamed of my ancestors.
Right, I am ashamed of my children and grandchildren.
Emperor Chu is really not a wise king.
But even so, it can't change that he is the ruler with the greatest power in Chu, and no one dares to disobey his decision.
As for Xia Jingzhi's confession, if His Royal Highness King Chen took the confession directly to the Golden Palace to find Emperor Chu, perhaps Emperor Chu would be extremely angry when he heard about it, but he would gradually bear with it later.
Just like how he dealt with the deaths of the First Prince and the Second Prince back then.
Zhao Yushi thought about it carefully, and then said to Lin Bai: "Master Lang, His Royal Highness Chen Wang wants to make Xia Jingzhi's confession public on his birthday, and this can be done."
"But the old man has a reminder and two suggestions, and I also ask Lord Lang to pass them on to His Royal Highness Chen Wang."
a reminder? Two suggestions? ... Lin Bai frowned, "Mr. Chao, please speak up."
Miss Shen Xian didn't say much, but looked at Chaoyu Stone calmly.
As a well-known treacherous person in the imperial capital, his reminders and suggestions must be extremely important.
Zhao Yushi said slowly, "I have to remind Lord Lang and Prince Chen that it's okay to make Xia Jingzhi's confession public, but... the content in it needs to be shortened."
Lin Bai asked puzzledly: "What does Mr. Chao mean by this? What needs to be reduced?"
Chao Yushi stretched out a finger, "First, Xia Jingzhi's collusion with Nanjiang Chonggu needs to be reduced."
"This matter cannot be made public, otherwise, it will force Chu and Nanjiang Chonggu to have no way out, so they can only break up."
"It's not a good thing for the two great powers of the demon world to break apart."
"Maybe, this will cause a huge wave in the devil world."
The first thing in Xia Jingzhi's confession was about colluding with Nanjiang Chonggu.
At this moment, Zhao Yushi reminded Lin Bai that there is no problem in making Xia Jingzhi's confession public, but the collusion between Xia Jingzhi and Nanjiang Chonggu must be deleted.
the reason is simple.
If Lin Baiyuan had originally made Xia Jingzhi's confession public, everyone in the world would know that Nanjiang Chonggu was plotting against Chu's territory.
And at this moment, Chu State, one of the most powerful forces in the demon world, if it didn't react at all, it would be ridiculed if it spread.
Therefore, once this confession is made public, it will undoubtedly block the retreat of the southern border insect valley and the state of Chu, and make these two great sects have to confront each other head-on.
Lin Bai took a deep breath, "Mr. Chao is absolutely right, I will inform His Royal Highness Chen Wang about this."
"What are Mr. Chao's two suggestions?"
Chao Yushi continued: "After Xia Jingzhi's confession was made public, there are only two results waiting for the third prince."
"The first result is that the third prince accepted the internal investigation of the imperial family."
"Secondly, Emperor Chu abolished the third prince in a fit of anger."
"These two results can prevent the third prince from being the emperor, but it doesn't mean that he has no influence."
He paused, and then continued: "The first suggestion I give is... I hope His Royal Highness Chen Wang will mobilize the strength of the army as soon as possible. After Emperor Chu leaves office, the third prince will rebel."
Mr. Chao spoke clearly and directly.
He added: "The second suggestion I give is... I hope Lord Wolf will take good care of himself after the matter is over, and it is best to leave Chu State for a while."
Lin Bai looked at Chaoyushi incomprehension, "Why should I leave?"
Although Lin Bai already intended to leave Chu, he still didn't quite understand why Chao Yushi wanted him to leave?
Chao Yushi laughed, "Master Lang helped His Royal Highness Chen Wang plan to investigate the cause of death of the eldest prince and the second prince, and dealt a fatal blow to the third prince. Do you think the third prince will let you go?"
"Even if the third prince is abolished from the position of prince, his power in the imperial capital is still deeply rooted, and His Royal Highness Chen Wang cannot be cut off overnight."
"Before His Royal Highness King Chen completely takes over the imperial capital, or when the third prince is desperate, he is likely to retaliate frantically."
"Master Wolf thinks... if the Third Prince wants to take revenge, who will be the first one to take revenge?"
The expression on Lin Bai's face turned cold, and he didn't answer.
Miss Shen Xian said in one go: "Of course it's Lord Wolf. It was Lord Wolf who investigated Xia Jingzhi and captured Xia Jingzhi, so that the third prince fell into such a situation."
"If I were the third prince, even if I died, I would go to hell with Lord Wolf in my arms."
"What the princess said is very true." Zhao Yushi said with a smile: "So, I suggest that Lord Wolf, before the birthday of Emperor Chu, the overall situation is settled, and he can leave the imperial capital temporarily, and even leave the state of Chu to avoid the limelight. "
"It won't be too long, at most ten years, His Royal Highness Chen Wang can completely control the Chu country, and slowly cut off the minions of the third prince."
Lin Bai understood Chao Yushi's kindness, "Okay, it doesn't matter anymore, anyway, after His Royal Highness Chen takes over, I also plan to leave."
Miss Shen Xian's eyes darkened when she heard the words, it was not the first time she heard Lin Bai talk about leaving Chu.
Every time she heard Lin Bai say that she was leaving, her heart felt as if it was pinched by an invisible big hand, a little painful, a little lost...
