Seeing him looking at him, Lu Zhantang was confused.’”‘ Why are you looking at me?”o
” The thing that the demon dog stole was a voice recording stone,” Zhang
Ronghua said.” It recorded the evidence of Princess Changxi plotting against His Highness these days.””
The three of them were shocked.
This news was too explosive. If it came from someone else’s mouth, they might not believe it, but from his mouth, it was definitely true.
“Where is it?”
“I’ve already handed it over to His Highness.”
Lu Zhantang frowned and said,””Princess Changxi is His Majesty’s third sister. Her status is noble, but she has no power. Prince Consort Wen Chen also died in the war with the Shang Kingdom ten years ago. How did she control the Marquis of Zhongyi and Madam Zhenlie? Taking a step back, even if she succeeded and pulled His Highness down, the civil and military officials would not submit to her, let alone let her sit in that position! Moreover, the princes and the forces behind them were not just for show. They would definitely think of ways to stop them and seize the position of Crown Prince.”
It was fine if Zheng Fugui didn’t say anything, but when he opened his mouth, he said something shocking,””Empress?”
Bang!
Reward him with a chestnut.
Zhang Ronghua glared at him. The latter scratched the back of his head and shrunk his neck, not daring to speak again. He continued, “This is also what I don’t understand. From the previous methods, her power is profound and ordinary people can’t compare to her. She wouldn’t have thought of this. Since she knew and still dared to attack, could it be that she still has hidden trump cards that can let her sit in that position?”
The atmosphere was silent.
They looked at each other. At this point, they did not dare to jump to conclusions.
After a while.
Lu Zhantang shrugged and pretended to be relaxed.””ln that case, my luck exploded this time and I inadvertently made a great contribution?” Zheng Fugui was not convinced.” My cousin was the one who caught him. He was the one who snatched the voice recording stone. He was the one who solved the case. The credit goes to him.””
They knew that Lu Zhantang was joking. After hearing what he said, they were so protective of Zhang Ronghua that they laughed.
“Stop talking.”
He looked in the direction of the palace.
” At this point,” Zhang Ronghua continued,” the situation has basically been decided. Princess Changxi will definitely die!” “The following confrontation isn’t something we can participate in. We can only wait.”
In the royal study.
The Xia Emperor sat on his dragon throne. He was not angry, but he was imposing. The immense pressure of a Renhuang emanated from his body, and just his aura alone was enough to suppress everyone until they could not breathe. His eyes could see through the vicissitudes of time, as if nothing could hide from him.
The Empress sat on the first chair on the left. Su Qiutang was there as well, sitting beside her. Her beautiful eyes were moving, and no one knew what she was thinking.
The Crown Prince, the First Prince, and the others stood in the hall with stern expressions.
On the ground.
Princess Changxi was still breathing. It was a miracle that she had survived until now after suffering such serious injuries from the Eastern Palace without any treatment or healing pills.
A somber and solemn atmosphere pervaded the air.
The Xia Emperor took in all of their expressions and expressionlessly said, “What happened?”
The Crown Prince stepped forward and recounted how she had tried to assassinate him. He then took out the Voice Recording Stone. Wei Shang walked down and took the Voice Recording Stone. He returned to the Xia Emperor’s back and asked with his eyes, should he open it now?
Seeing that the Xia Emperor was unmoved, he knew what to do. He inserted a bit of true essence into the voice recording stone, and the image appeared, showing the conversation between her and the loyalty duke in front of everyone.
The more he listened, the more surprised he became. Some princes secretly glanced at Princess Chang Xi from the corner of their eyes, shocked by her ruthless methods. The Tenth Prince, the Gong Prince, the Nanman Kingdom envoy, Wu Li Zhi, Madam Zhen Lie, and others were all related to her. If they were not her people, they were all schemed against by her. Including the Sixth Prince, he was also a scapegoat that she pushed out to block the undeserved disaster.

His mother’s family was a century-old aristocratic family and had many supporters in the court, but she had become a chess piece. Even the Gong Prince, who had just been roped in, had been eliminated. This method was too terrifying.
He became vigilant and warned himself that he could not underestimate anyone in the royal family, including women! Even a princess without power could not be careless. She was the best example.
The video ended.
Wei Shang placed the voice recording stone in front of the Xia Emperor and stood at the side.
Everyone secretly watched him, wanting to see what their father was thinking. In the end, they were disappointed. The Xia Emperor’s expression did not change from the beginning to the end.
“Wake her up.”
Wei Shang walked over and injected a strand of vital essence into her body to suppress her injuries and wake her up.
Looking at the scene in front of him, he knew that he was in the royal study.
Princess Chang Xi struggled to get up from the ground. She endured her weakness and said with difficulty,””Do you all know?”
No one answered her.
She did not expect anyone to answer, so she continued,”l don’t regret it!” “Did you also do what happened to Xue Yan?” Emperor Xia asked.”
” No!” Princess Chang Xi shook her head. The Grand Tutor is the stabilizing pillar of the Great Xia Dynasty. Even if I have a lot of power, I don’t dare to provoke him. My brain isn’t that bad.”
“Tell me the truth!”
She did not dare to hold back. At this point, there was no turning back. Whether she said it or not, she would die. If she said it, she would suffer less and die with dignity. She told him the details of the process.
She was the one who sent people to deal with the Tenth Prince. The Gong Prince, including the fake imperial edict, was also done by her. She had people disguise themselves as the Sixth Prince and used him to get rid of the Crown Prince. Crown Prince Feng Yi and Princess Feng He were already dead before they came. She was just pushing the boat with the current. Madam Zhen Lie was controlled by Marquis Zhong Yi and used some despicable methods to take her down.
As for him bullying her when he was drunk, it was also her who had secretly poisoned the wine and poisoned the loyal marquis. She had personally attacked Wu Li Zhi, and the process was a little similar to the loyal marquis.
As for Pang Bing, Lin Shiyuan, and the others, they were all nameless pawns. Even if the former was the Azure Dragon Envoy, he was just a chess piece. With a little bit of sweetness, he was willing to be ordered around. The Heavenly Sound Sect also secretly joined her.
Listen to the whole thing.
The way everyone looked at her changed. How could this be something a woman could do? Even some old foxes in the imperial court would have to admit defeat by relying solely on power.
After this incident, their desire for power surpassed everything else. “Is there anything else you want to say?”
Princess Chang Xi turned around and pointed at the Crown Prince.””He’s a
woman!”
Boom!
Everyone’s head shook. There was nothing more shocking than this piece of news. All eyes fell on him. The Crown Prince’s expression was calm and unhurried. He did not panic because of her words. He asked, “I don’t know how I’ve offended you. You’ve attacked me time and time again, wanting to kill me. At this point, you still want to make a countercharge.”
” I have evidence!”
