"The person who was replaced with Lord Yin's face, do you know it?" Sheng Zhuohuai walked over and asked the hermit.

The recluse shook his head: "Very faced, not from the clan." ”

"A commoner, who quietly mixed into the court, also made a lot of nonsense, deliberately targeting the sacrifice of the prince, and tricked the emperor and us courtiers around, this matter must be investigated in detail!" Luan Chang also came to the front and spoke.

He looked at Qiu Lingshuang: "Young Master Qiu, although this matter is investigated by the Ghost Guarding Academy, because it has involved the identity of the sacrificial girl who has bitten and slandered Xiangfu, my Dali Temple will also intervene in the investigation." ”

Qiu Lingshuang looked at Luan Chang coldly with a pair of Danfeng eyes for a moment before he said, "What Lord Luan said is that this matter is indeed not something that the Ghost Deterrent Courtyard can investigate and handle independently. ”

In the distance, in the direction of the palace, a chamberlain suddenly ran over out of breath and said in a loud voice: "Everyone, stay here!"

The ministers who had already stopped looked at the chamberlain.

When the chamberlain approached, he saw his appearance clearly, it was the king's attendant who accompanied the emperor.

"Wang, why did you come in a hurry?" Sheng Zhuohuai asked.

The king's attendant bowed to Sheng Zhuohuai, and after quickly calming down his hurried breath, he replied: "Your Majesty, please return to the palace immediately, there is something important to discuss!"

"Your Majesty, do you have anything to say?" Sheng Zhuohuai asked again.

The chamberlain's face turned pale, and he replied: "Your Majesty went to the harem to find Rong Meiren, but I didn't want to bump into ......" He paused, looking unspeakable, "I bumped into the Third Highness and Rong Meiren were about to ...... Bed down......"

When the ministers heard this, their expressions changed.

In the chaotic and hurried footsteps, the courtiers returned to the Taihua Palace.

The emperor, who was sitting at the top of the place, slapped his palm on the table in front of him, his face was gloomy, and he said angrily: "Presumptuous! What kind of ghost is it, who dares to make trouble in the palace continuously?!"

After entering the Taihua Palace, the ministers learned what happened.

The person who almost did something wrong with Rong Meiren was not the Three Princes, but a palace guard who was replaced with the face of the Three Princes, and then his consciousness was controlled.

Despite this, considering the royal face and prestige, the unlucky guard and Rong Meiren, who mistook the imposter of the Three Princes for the original figure and couldn't control herself, were both killed on the spot.

From Marquis Yin to the three princes just now, from the former dynasty to the harem, the two impostors took turns to disrupt the court, and the emperor finally couldn't help but have a seizure.

"Father. The eldest prince suddenly stood up and said, "Why did that ghost turn the face of a guard into the third brother's and not someone else's, and why did it not cause anything else, but this incident?"

The emperor looked at him lightly: "What do you want to say?"

The eldest prince: "Father, what the person who was replaced with Lord Yin's face just now said, I think it is the news that the person behind the scene deliberately conveyed to us through the skin painting technique, from the heart, those news are not groundless, and some are even true, so the matter between the third brother and Rong Meiren, do you have to ...... How about sending someone to check it out?"

The sleeping fence is a moon fence, and everyone tacitly almost decided that this matter is true, and the matter of the three princes and Rong Meiren, who were also calculated, reasoned from this, and maybe there were also cats in it.

The eldest prince is taking advantage of what the former said, taking the opportunity to implicate and frame the three princes behind, even if he fails to take the three princes in the end, but more or less he will still nail a needle in the emperor's heart, so that he will give birth to some unwarranted mustard for the three princes.

The eldest prince does not ask much for the throne, he has always been willing to act as a puppet prince supported by the Sheng family, and the third prince has been in the limelight recently, although he saw some signs, but he didn't bother to pay attention to it, and still stayed in one place with the eldest princess all day long, enjoying the flowers and listening to the music.

But a few days ago, Sheng Zhuohuai came to the Great Prince's Mansion and warned the Great Prince that even if he wanted to be a puppet with peace of mind, there were some things that he should do as a puppet.

He can't wait for the throne to fall in front of him, and he enjoys the glory and wealth of being an emperor for the rest of his life, but he doesn't make any effort.

Since the third prince has the ambition to snatch the throne, he naturally has to spare no effort to start suppressing him and play his role well.

After the eldest prince finished speaking, Sheng Zhuohuai, who was standing among the ministers, flashed with satisfaction in his eyes.

The eldest prince is actually not stupid, but many times he is not in the government and the opposition, and lives like a stupid person.

"Your Majesty, Gong Gongzi asks to see you outside the palace. A chamberlain suddenly came and said.

The ministers were all stunned, and even the emperor was a little surprised.

The Gong clan has always ignored the affairs of the court, why did Gong Yun suddenly ask to enter the palace today.

"Xuan. The Emperor said with confusion.

The chamberlain withdrew, and soon led a man dressed in green clothes into the hall.

Gong Yun stepped forward a few steps, lifted the hem of his clothes, knelt on his knees, and kowtowed to the emperor: "Respectfully see Your Majesty!"

A kind smile resurfaced on the emperor's face, he raised his hand, and said softly: "Gongzi get up quickly." ”

After thanking him, he stood up.

The emperor first gave him a brief greeting, mentioning the body of the old man Gongmo Qiu Mo, who was still wandering around, and the current situation of the patriarch Gongqing, who was guarding the Gong Mansion alone in Yin'an but had been closed all the year round.

Then, I finally got to the point.

"Your Majesty, I have come here this time to inform Your Majesty on behalf of my father. ”

Gong Yun's father Gong Qing has no official position, and he is the only Gong person in the Gong clan who stays in Yin'an all the year round, although he stays at home all the year round and rarely goes out, but he knows everything that happens inside and outside Yin'an.

In addition to the Gong clan's children who travel everywhere will regularly send back all kinds of information, Gong Qing's own subordinates in Yin'an also have their own channels for collecting information.

The Gong clan has never participated in the affairs of the court, and the two major factions of the court fight openly and secretly, and he only watches from the sidelines and does not help either side.

But there is an exception.

When something involves the interests of the emperor and the Xiang clan, the Gong clan will stand up, but it still helps not either side, but both sides.

The Gong clan always adheres to a neutral attitude, which is called the "way of balance".

Gong Yun came this time because of the several face-swapping incidents that have occurred in the palace from last night to today, because this matter has damaged the two major factions of the emperor and Xiang, it is the Gong clan who stood up to help one or two.

Respectfully: "My father said that what happened in the Fu Mansion last night, as well as the two incidents that happened in the palace today, were all done by the same ghost, this ghost is good at painting skin, and can change the face of anyone and ghost to other people's faces by painting faces, and then control the person whose face is changed." ”

His statement confirmed the conjectures of some previous ministers.

Gong Yun continued: "The face of the Fu patriarch was first changed to the face of the portrait of the moon fence in the beauty picture he bought today, and then the face of the Fu patriarch was changed to his own face, and the faces of Lord Yin and the three princes were painted on the faces of the commoner and the guard. ”

"In general, all three of them were controlled by the ghost, and then what happened next. ”
