The scumbag wanted to wipe out the whole family, but rebirth ruined him!

As the two were talking, Minister Zhao and Shen Bi hurried over.

Minister Zhao hurried over without even having time to change into his official uniform. He must have heard what Shen Bi had said about the situation before. When he saw Zhao Huayin sitting there peacefully, his brows relaxed a lot.

Shen Bi went straight to Zhao Huayin's bed.

"You finally woke up. I scared you to death."

Seeing Shen Bi's eyes turn red, Zhao Huayin held Shen Bi's hand.

"It's my fault. I made my father and mother worried."

While the mother and daughter were talking, Minister Zhao greeted Yan Qi first.

"I was away from home these past two days. Thank you, Your Majesty, for taking care of my daughter!"

"You're welcome, uncle."

Yan Qi helped Minister Zhao to stand up.

"I am a junior, so you don't have to be so polite, uncle."

Shen Bi had already told Minister Zhao about what had happened in the past few days. Seeing Yan Qi being so humble, Minister Zhao also understood the reason, so he said no more and went to Zhao Huayin's bedside together.

Zhao Huayin saw that Minister Zhao had come here without even changing out of his official uniform, and he looked exhausted, so she asked hurriedly,

"Father must have been very hard these past few days. My daughter is fine now. You and mother should go and have a rest."

"It's alright, your Majesty has woken up and has dealt with the matter of King Xuan. Prime Minister, please allow us to rest for a few days."

"Your Majesty has dealt with King Xuan?"

Zhao Huayin sat up straighter and asked Minister Zhao, but her eyes were on Yan Qi.

Yan Qi nodded and walked forward.

"Yes, my father abolished Prince Xuan's title of prince. He is now imprisoned in the city defense camp, and Prince Xuan's palace has been confiscated."

Yan Qi only said a few brief words. Zhao Huayin noticed that Yan Qi's expression was a little gloomy when he talked about this matter, but she didn't think about it too much.

King Xuan was deposed, which was different from the previous life. That meant that there would be no more cases of King Xuan's corruption in this life, and so many innocent people would not die.

Zhao Huayin was delighted, and King Xuan had always wanted to harm Yan Qi. As long as King Xuan was deposed, Yan Qi would be safe.

There are also Yu Ying'er and Zhou Pei who are staying in Prince Xuan's palace. With the fall of Prince Xuan, these two people will definitely not have a good ending.

Zhao Huayin was lost in thought for a moment. Shen Bi saw that Zhao Huayin was in a daze and didn't say anything, and thought that she was not feeling well again.

"Yinyin, are you feeling unwell somewhere? Do you want to ask Doctor Lu to come and take a look?"

Zhao Huayin finally came to her senses.

"Mom, I'm fine. I'm just thinking about something."

Shen Bi always felt that Zhao Huayin was like this because she was frightened on the day of the flower viewing party.

"We still have to be careful. After all, we have suffered so much."

While the two were talking, Dianxue had already brought in the medicine, and Shen Bi accompanied Zhao Huayin to take the medicine.

Minister Zhao said to Yan Qi,

"I still have something to say to the prince. Why don't we go to the study to talk?"

Yan Qi went to the study with Minister Zhao.

Minister Zhao was puzzled by what had happened in the past few days. King Xuan intended to rebel, so he must have been well prepared. How come he was captured before he even made a move?

Especially when the Prime Minister asked all the ministers to gather in the cabinet to discuss the matter, they were not caught off guard at all, but rather handled the situation with ease.

Minister Zhao wanted to ask Yan Qi if he also knew about this matter and how Zhao Huayin was injured.

Yan Qi followed Minister Zhao into the study, and what caught his eye was an embroidery with the words: "Ten thousand volumes of ancient and modern books pass the long days, and a window of dusk and dawn bids farewell to the passing years."

Yan Qi recognized it as Zhao Huayin's handwriting at a glance. Needless to say, this calligraphy must have been given by Zhao Huayin.

Sure enough, seeing Yan Qi staring at the calligraphy, Minister Zhao's expression softened a lot.

"Yinyin wrote these words herself and made them into embroidery and hung them in my study."

When talking about Zhao Huayin, Minister Zhao's face was filled with pride.

"Huayin's calligraphy is good, and her embroidery is even better."

Yan Qi couldn't help but praise.

The maid served tea and left, leaving only the two of them in the study. Minister Zhao asked Yan Qi bluntly,

"There is one thing I don't understand, I hope Your Majesty can help me solve it."

"Uncle, please tell me."

"King Xuan's rebellion was suppressed too easily this time. He didn't even have time to do anything. He was captured just after setting a few fires in the capital.

It felt like someone had been waiting by his side, waiting for him to do this, and would be taken down as soon as he made a move.

I couldn't understand why. Even the Prime Minister seemed unhurried. So did we officials who were called to the cabinet. They seemed to be there to discuss matters only to protect us.

Those who were not summoned to the meeting were all accomplices of King Xuan. I think this must not be a coincidence. Someone is plotting this."

"Uncle is right."

Yan Qi took a sip of tea before speaking slowly.

"I have already informed the Prime Minister about this matter.

My father sent me to Qi to deliver a state gift, and I went to Ganzhou. "

Minister Zhao had a complicated expression on his face; this matter was indeed related to Yan Qi.

“I was the one who found out about the Xie family in Ganzhou. When I reported the matter to the prime minister, I had already asked him to secretly investigate any clues about King Xuan’s actions in the capital.

With the help of Lord Cui from the Ministry of Justice, the officials who had connections with King Xuan were quickly found.

To be honest with you, uncle, I had already placed my people in Ganzhou a few years ago, otherwise it would not be so easy to control the Xie family's troops.

With the Xie family's troops and horses removed, King Xuan naturally became a toothless tiger, and the Prime Minister's actions in the capital were naturally smooth. "

Minister Zhao took over.

"I think His Royal Highness Prince Jin also contributed. That day in the palace, I happened to see that the people who came to report the details to Prince Xuan were from the Imperial Guards of the Capital."

After hearing what Yan Qi said, Minister Zhao connected it with what he had seen and made a rough guess.

"Yes, I went to Ganzhou to eradicate the Xie family. The things in the capital are all handled by the King of Jin. Now that I know the movements of the King of Xuan, there is no reason not to make arrangements in advance."

"The Prime Minister knew about this early on?"

Yan Qi shook his head.

"I came back in a hurry and was slightly injured in Ganzhou. I know that the King of Jin will tell the Prime Minister about what happened in the capital sooner or later, but I didn't ask when the Prime Minister knew it."

Minister Zhao was a little surprised when he heard this. His Majesty had always disliked the Prince of Qin, but His Majesty had always been in favor of the Prince of Jin.

Is it possible that there is no grudge between brothers and they can still trust each other so much that they can not only plan big things together but also trust each other with no worries?

If there was any mistake in this matter, regardless of the favored King Jin, Yan Qi would definitely be the first to bear the brunt.

Minister Zhao nodded with an expression of admiration, but it was unclear whether he was praising Yan Qi and Prince Jin's early planning or the pure trust in the brothers.

“But there is still one thing I don’t understand. Since the two Your Highnesses have made full preparations and know that King Xuan has some plans, they must have taken precautions.

But how come His Majesty was assassinated at the flower viewing party that day, and Yinyin was actually bewitched by Jiaozhi and almost died?"

What Minister Zhao asked was also something Yan Qi felt deeply guilty about, so he hurriedly stood up and saluted, his face full of remorse.

"Speaking of this, I am indeed sorry to Huayin."
