Help! I just woke up and was stabbed by a big kid

"Back then, I took great pains to infiltrate Gu Xu just to get something from him." Gu Yue said.

"what?"

"The token of the Chao Zhen Army. Unfortunately, three years have passed and nothing has been found." Gu Yue frowned and said, "Until later, I discovered that he had developed a different feeling towards me... I used this to finally find out the location of the Chao Zhen Army."

“Where?!” King Yin’s heart was pounding.

"I helped Gu Xu find out the truth about the case of King Shen, but I also discovered that the so-called Chaozhen Army was just a team researching new weapons. There were only about twenty people in it. After King Shen died, they scattered like birds and beasts and have long been missing. The rumors back then were just fabricated by someone with ulterior motives to get rid of King Shen."

King Yin was stunned.

Gu Yue sighed softly: "Besides, Gu Xu never told me about his many plans. I think it's probably because I still don't trust him enough... So, I did that scene in Yishan."

King Yin was trying to determine how credible his words were.

Shi San should be right. He is very skilled and loyal. With him around, it should be... not a lie, right?

Gu Yue smiled and said, "Whether His Majesty believes it or not, we at Lingfeng Pavilion are now on the same boat with His Majesty. We came here today to bring His Majesty some very helpful news."

The King of Yin did not respond, but just listened.

Wen Qing observed his expression carefully and felt about 70% sure.

Gu Yue said: "After I came back to life, Gu Xu finally told me his plan. Your Majesty, please don't be too surprised by this news."

King Yin said: "You say!"

"The prince is a fake." Gu Yue said.

King Yin suddenly stood up.

This news is indeed true!

“Where is the evidence? Mixing up the royal bloodline is a big deal. It’s not something that you can explain just by your mouth.” King Yin’s face was gloomy.

Gu Yue knew very well that these words were asking for proof from him.

He crossed his hands and smiled, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. Let me tell you slowly. I learned the news a few days ago when Gu Xu took me to the palace to check on the preparations for the coronation ceremony. He left me alone in the side hall and went to the imperial study alone. When I went to check, I found..."

"The prince knelt on one knee, listening to Gu Xu's lecture as a servant." Gu Yue smiled, "From the few words he spoke, we can tell that Qin Zhaoyue had already been killed by Gu Xu. The two close guards in the East Palace, Lu Tianyun and Yu Hu, one died and the other escaped. Gu Xu is looking for this person but can't find him."

“In order to cover up this matter, little Xuzi, who was beside the prince, died suddenly a few days ago. The entire Jing family, who was most familiar with the prince, was imprisoned at this time, when nothing could go wrong…” Gu Yue did not finish his words.

Right!

King Yin cried out in his heart. Once the story about Yu Hu came out, he had already believed it 80%.

"I have kept this in mind." Gu Yue reached out and took out a slightly damaged letter from his arms: "This is a letter that leaked out from Fengyi Palace a few days ago. I asked someone to identify the handwriting, and it was written by... the Queen."

There was no servant in the room, so Shi San turned around and presented it.

King Yin displayed the letter.

His expression gradually became solemn.

He was also a royal relative, so how could he not recognize the Queen's handwriting? The Queen's handwriting was also well-known in the court and the public, and it was not so easy to imitate.

The letter was filled with a mother's doubts about her own child, and ultimately pointed to one conclusion - the prince was not the prince, not the real Qin Zhaoyue!

King Yin's hands trembled slightly. He soon realized that his emotions were only revealed on the surface, so he put away the letter and put it in his arms.

He was silent for a long time.

Gu Yue said: "Now that Qin Zhaoyue has been killed, the other princes are even less powerful. This is a great opportunity for us. The only person who can take on the leadership of Northern Qin... Prince, you are the only one."

His voice was low and full of temptation. King Yin was in a trance for a moment, and he seemed to really see the throne beckoning to him.

Great opportunity, great opportunity!

Jing was imprisoned by Gu Xu, and the fake prince no longer had any reliable personnel. The princes were completely unprepared, and they were in the capital. When they sent people to surround Tenglin Lane, no one dared to act rashly.

But he was not immediately overwhelmed by the huge news.

"I need to verify this matter again." King Yin said in a deep voice.

"Of course." Gu Yue smiled: "After all, I am just an outsider. I am not allowed to enter and leave the palace at will, and I cannot see the queen directly. However, if you want to prove that the prince is fake, who can not believe what the queen, the mother, said in person?"

Gu Yue was hinting.

Wen Qing watched coldly, feeling a little chilly as he saw this man leading King Yin into the trap step by step.

If I had formed an alliance with this person earlier...

"I understand." King Yin said.

Wen Qing said at the right time: "Your Majesty, please take some time to consider my Pavilion Master's expectations."

King Yin looked at him deeply.

"Your request is not easy to fulfill," he said, "but I will do my best to ensure that your efforts are commensurate with your gains."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Wen Qing smiled and said, "Besides, there is another way..."

"Oh?"

"I wonder if the prince needs more help? The King of Xihu has suffered from the Xidi for many years, and he needs a wise ruler to help him conquer the Xidi."

……

In the imperial city.

Fengyi Palace was extremely deserted.

Pale white mourning clothes were hung all around, and lanterns flickered. The bedroom during the day was as gloomy as it was at dusk.

The queen's lips were pale and she lay haggard on the bed. The whole hall was filled with an indescribable bitter smell of medicine.

Qin Zhaohong stood outside the hall.

"This medicine, what effect will it have on my mother's health..." she asked Wuye who was standing beside her again.

"Princess, don't worry. This medicine is harmless. It is a prescription passed down from my ancestors. The master has also specifically instructed us about this matter. It will never hurt the queen in the slightest." Wuye answered patiently.

Qin Zhaohong nodded silently: "Go ahead."

She calmed herself down, pushed open the door and walked into the bedroom.

When the maids in the bedroom saw Qin Zhaohong coming in, they hurriedly bowed and left.

Although the queen's lips were pale, Qin Zhaohong saw that her cheeks were not completely bloodless. She was also very clear-headed and turned her head slowly when she heard the noise.

When she saw her daughter, she struggled to get up almost immediately.

Qin Zhaohong quickly stepped forward and helped her up.

The queen grabbed her arm tightly, just like she had done countless times before: "Zhao Kong! Is there any news about Zhao Yue? How is Zhao Yue? The coronation ceremony will be held soon. That faker must not..."

"Mother!" Qin Zhaohong raised his voice and finally brought her back to her senses.

She whispered, "Mother, look at this."

She placed the bloodstained belt and jade pendant in her hands on the queen's lap.

The queen picked up the two things with trembling hands.

"No, no, how could it be? How is Zhaoyue? Is this his blood?" The queen's tears fell in strings.
