Rebirth of Her Royal Highness the Princess

King Kang acted decisively and immediately sent his most capable guard to investigate who the person who sent the letter was and to thoroughly investigate his true intentions.

This matter must be thoroughly investigated! Because if this letter was deliberately sent by a spy from the enemy country, in order to slander King Xuan, that would be terrible! Although King Kang already knew that King Xuan was counterfeiting currency, this was nothing compared to colluding with foreign tribes to rebel!

A few days later, the guards reported to King Kang that the person who delivered the letter was a young eunuch in the palace who had disappeared after the incident.

King Kang frowned, realizing that things were far more complicated than he had imagined. He was secretly glad that he had found the letter in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

At the same time, King Xuan also learned about this matter and was terrified. He knew that King Kang would not give up easily and would definitely investigate it to the end. In order to protect himself, King Xuan decided to strike first...

King Xuan called his advisers to discuss countermeasures. The advisers suggested that King Xuan confess everything to the emperor and try to get a lighter sentence. But King Xuan was worried that this would lose the emperor's trust and he would never be able to turn things around.

After some thought, King Xuan decided to take a risk and try to divert King Kang's attention. He spread rumors that King Kang was secretly cultivating forces and trying to usurp the throne. After hearing this, King Kang realized that this was King Xuan's conspiracy, but he did not panic.

King Kang decided to take advantage of the situation. He deliberately created some noise in the palace to make King Xuan think that he was taking action. At the same time, he stepped up his investigation to find evidence of King Xuan's counterfeiting of currency, preparing to expose King Xuan's crime at the right time.

In the palace of Prince Kang, an old and majestic voice came: "Prince Kang, what are the recent news circulating in the court?" The person who spoke was the grandfather of Prince Kang, the father of the current queen, and the prime minister Shen Huo in the court. He looked solemn, his eyes were as sharp as an eagle, and he stared at Prince Kang closely.

King Kang smiled slightly and answered firmly: "Grandpa, these are rumors deliberately spread by King Xuan. You must not believe them." His eyes revealed confidence and decisiveness, as if he had a clear grasp of the matter.

Shen Huo frowned and said worriedly: "But, if these rumors are not suppressed, once they reach the ears of the emperor, the consequences will be disastrous!" He was well aware of the complexity of the court struggles, and he could lose everything if he was not careful.

Prince Kang looked calm and comforted my grandfather: "Don't worry, Grandpa. I will explain everything to father myself, you don't have to worry." He narrowed his eyes slightly and raised a barely perceptible smile at the corner of his mouth, as if everything was under his control.

A sly look flashed in King Kang's eyes, and he laughed coldly: "Humph, King Xuan is unkind, so don't blame me for being unjust." Then, he leaned close to my grandfather's ear and whispered his plan. As King Kang spoke, Shen Huo's face gradually became gloomy, and finally revealed a satisfied smile.

Soon after, there was a great uproar in the court. Someone reported that King Xuan had taken bribes and made counterfeit coins. The emperor was furious and ordered a strict investigation. King Xuan never dreamed that King Kang would catch him so quickly. He fell into panic and began to look for help. However, at this time, no one in the court was willing to help King Xuan. Everyone saw King Kang's means, and no one wanted to get into trouble.

"Father, I am innocent! Father..." King Xuan knelt outside the gate of Chengqian Palace with a look of grievance on his face, crying and shouting with tears in his eyes.

At this time, Concubine Ling had not yet recovered, but after hearing the news, she still endured the discomfort and hurried over. Seeing her son in such a pitiful state, she felt distressed and staggered forward, calling out: "Yan'er..."

"Mother, mother, please tell father quickly that I have been wronged. I am really innocent..." King Xuan was in tears, tightly grasping the corner of Concubine Ling's clothes, begging bitterly.

The emperor's voice came from inside the door: "What? Concubine Ling is here? Hasn't she recovered yet? How can she come here to make trouble! Now that Prince Xuan has privately made counterfeit money, it has posed a serious threat to the court. This is no small matter!"

Then, the emperor ordered, "Come here, quickly send Concubine Ling back to Lanyue Pavilion so she can have a good rest."

The eunuchs outside the door answered in unison: "Yes."

Then, the emperor said: "Also, let Prince Xuan go back first and wait for the results of the investigation by the Ministry of Justice. This matter must be thoroughly investigated and must not be tolerated."

King Xuan reluctantly left Chengqian Palace, his heart filled with despair. He knew that he would not be able to escape the blame this time, and Concubine Ling's health also made him worried.

On the way back to the palace, King Xuan passed by a restaurant and overheard a conversation. "I heard that King Xuan is in big trouble this time. Making counterfeit money is a serious crime." "That's right, but King Kang is also ruthless. He caught King Xuan's handle in one go." King Xuan's face became more and more gloomy. He originally thought that King Kang just wanted to suppress him, but he didn't expect that he would actually put him to death.

After returning to the palace, King Xuan closed the door to visitors and thought hard about countermeasures. Just when he was in a state of panic, a mysterious visitor quietly came to the palace. The visitor claimed to be an old subordinate of King Xuan and brought an important news. It turned out that the reason why King Kang was able to obtain evidence of King Xuan's crime so quickly was because there was a traitor around King Xuan. King Xuan was shocked and secretly vowed to find the traitor and make King Kang's plan fail.

King Xuan immediately summoned his confidants to discuss how to find the traitor. After some investigation, they locked their target on King Xuan's counselor.

"Sir, I have recently discovered that Xiao Yi often meets with outsiders secretly, and his behavior is very suspicious." A confidant reported.

A hint of ruthlessness flashed in King Xuan's eyes, "It was indeed him! I trusted him so much, but he betrayed me at the critical moment!"

Just as King Xuan was about to take action, he received an imperial decree from the emperor, who ordered that King Xuan be placed under house arrest in the palace and not allowed to take even a single step out.

"What should we do? Are we now at the mercy of others?" The confidants were extremely anxious.

However, King Xuan remained calm, as if he had expected this. He smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Since King Kang wants to play, I will play with him. We will wait and see what he does next."
