Why do I think that?

Why?

Xu Zun grabbed the railing of the ship's side tightly with both hands, and it felt particularly incredible.

Just now, just a flash of thought made him think of such an extremely absurd speculation.

However, as he kept deducing, this absurd speculation became more and more difficult to refute.

Should...... No way?

Xu Zun forcibly pressed the violent ups and downs of his chest, and after his emotions stabilized, he re-examined his previous deduction.

Yesterday in the Changle Palace of the Banshee Country, in order to pull himself into the water, the prince told them about a scandal of the Empress Dowager Lin:

Empress Dowager Lin actually had an affair with the former national teacher Qiu Dingtian, and the bead was secretly knotted, giving birth to the second prince Li Yi.

This incident was the fuse of the later iron coffin case.

After the rumors spread, the Queen Mother broke up with Qiu Dingtian and wanted to kill Qiu Dingtian, who was nearly ninety years old.

Qiu Dingtian was forced to flee to Xiazhou, and the Empress Dowager secretly ordered the Ruan clan of Xiazhou to kill Qiu Dingtian and transport Qiu Dingtian's body back to the holy capital.

In order to prevent Qiu Dingtian from defrauding the corpse, the Ruan family also made a special iron coffin and transported it in a coffin.

This led to the iron coffin case, which led to the iron coffin being attacked by Shen Tiande and others in Xinye County.

But Shen Tiande found that there was no Qiu Dingtian in the iron coffin, only the living dead who practiced divine skills, Ku Niang, so Qiu Dingtian's whereabouts were unknown from then on, and his life and death were unknown......

All this seems to make sense, but it is not reasonable, and there are even many doubts.

First of all, how shrewd and strong the Queen Mother is, if there is such an ugly thing, how can rumors spread?

With the Queen Mother's means, I'm afraid there won't be any insiders left, right?

Secondly, Xu Zun didn't know when the rumors came out, but listening to the tone of the prince, it should have been after the death of the first emperor.

So...... The second prince, Li Yi, is over thirty years old now, so this rumor is quite strange.

If it was really a palace maid who revealed the news, why didn't she leak it when the emperor was alive, but she had to wait until the queen mother took sole power before leaking it, isn't this clearly looking for death?

Finally, the disposition of Qiu Dingtian is also very puzzling, the Queen Mother really wants to kill Qiu Dingtian, and let him escape to Xiazhou?

In the end, Qiu Dingtian was killed by the Xiazhou Ruan clan, so why not just burn the body with a fire? As long as the corpse is gone, then there will be no blood to recognize? Why take the risk of transporting the body back to the Holy Capital?

Could it be that the Queen Mother doesn't believe in the Ruan family and wants to see Qiu Dingtian's corpse with her own eyes? But in that case, wouldn't it be good to send a cronie over to take a look?

Xiazhou is far away from the holy capital, this time and again, even if it was winter, but the corpse may have already deteriorated, right?

What's even more intriguing is that according to Ku Niang's confirmation, Qiu Dingtian's body was not put into the iron coffin at all!

I don't know, was it secretly transported back to the Holy Capital by the Queen Mother, or did the Ruan family not kill Qiu Dingtian at all?

The former seems unlikely, otherwise, why would the Queen Mother send troops to Xiazhou under the pretense of the Yonghui haunting incident?

But if it's the latter, it doesn't seem to be very probable.

Just imagine, if the Xiazhou Ruan clan is not stupid, he can't do anything to deceive the Queen Mother. After all, the arms can't twist the thighs, once the Queen Mother is angry and it is easy to destroy Xiazhou, there is no need for them to give up the entire family for the sake of a national teacher.

So...... What else could it be?

Unless......

Unless......

Xu Zun pondered and meditated, deliberated repeatedly, and finally believed that it was the most likely that the Queen Mother was doing the game!

This rumor is very likely fabricated by the Queen Mother herself!

Wow......

Thinking of this, Xu Zun once again felt a chill in his back, if he was really guessed by himself, then the queen mother's wrist in the city was really too unfathomable!

Why would she do it?

Why should you spread a rumor that is so unfavorable to you and even violates the rules of the national system at the moment when you have monopolized power?

If it weren't for the greater good, I'm afraid she wouldn't be like this, right?

So...... And what are the benefits?

Acting......

The Queen Mother and Xiazhou Ruan are acting......

No, there is a trick in the thirty-six strategies called wanting to capture the old man, and there is another trick called making something out of nothing, the queen mother is very handy with these two tricks!

If she didn't guess wrong, she should be using this rumor to her own detriment to catch her opponent!

Just imagine, when rumors come out, they will inevitably bring hope to the hostile forces hiding in the shadows, and make them ready to move.

Then, whoever wants to use the rumors to make a big fuss, and whoever wants to move the iron coffin, will be exposed to the Queen Mother and fall into the trap carefully prepared by the Queen Mother.

In this way, the enemy and the enemy are clear, which will be more conducive to the queen mother's grasp of power.

My God, what a terrible Empress Dowager Lin!

If her inference is true, then the Yonghui incident, she is just putting on a show for others, making some people more sure, the handle of the Queen Mother is in Xiazhou, and it is on Qiu Dingtian.

In fact, the Queen Mother has already mastered everyone's details.

At the same time, the Empress Dowager used the Xuanmen founded by Li Ren and the crown prince to play everyone on applause.

The Heavenly Tribulation incident seems to be an assassination incident against the Queen Mother, but in fact, it was the Queen Mother who used the hand of Xuanmen to eradicate those dissidents and those forces that could bind her.

Oh......

Xu Zun thought in horror, if he was really guessed by himself, then the Queen Mother had laid out so many games and placed so many sets, and now that the big net has been closed, is it ...... Is she really going to be a female emperor?

It's also too ...... Amazing, right?

As the saying goes: Chao Chao Twilight is busy calculating, calculating and calculating herself, but Empress Dowager Lin's exquisite calculations one after another can finally calculate her on the throne of Jinluan, right?

Call...... Call......

The more Xu Zun thought about it, the more frightened he became, he became short of breath, and his blood was boiling.

Instead, he thought:

So...... What about Shen Tiande?

Also fooled by the Queen Mother?

The iron coffin completely exposed him?

Shen Qian took the opportunity to kill her biological father, could it be ...... Could it be that Shen Qian is also the Queen Mother's person?

Shen Qian was coerced by the Queen Mother, and in order to save the lives of her three elder brothers, she did not hesitate to assassinate Shen Gong? Although he lost his father, he was able to keep his three elder brothers?

However, Shen Xingran said that Shen Qian was with Princess Ronghua, so ...... Could Shen Qian be a double agent?

Or, Princess Ronghua herself listened to the Queen Mother?

That's right, if Empress Dowager Lin becomes the female emperor, then Princess Ronghua can be the female prince!

This......

Xu Zun's thinking is like a high-speed rotating machine, which cannot be stopped once it is turned on.

He also didn't expect that an iron coffin case would hide such an esoteric mystery.

So...... How does this affect you?

He quickly transferred his shocking speculation to himself, although he saw through the mystery of the Queen Mother, but can it help his future?

It seems that instead of helping, it will hasten your own demise, right?

Just imagine, how could the Queen Mother allow a person who saw through her profound mysteries to exist? Although she needs to be smart, she must not be too smart.

Gee......

So...... What will the death of the crown prince bring to himself?

Although, the queen mother wants to be the empress, and the crown prince is her biggest obstacle, but the more this is the case, the more she can't show it too obviously.

In other words, this time when she returned to the Holy Capital to restore her life, the Queen Mother would not reward herself heavily, but would punish her heavily. I must be guilty of protecting the prince unfavorably!

So...... Is there a way to break the game?
