Sword of the Red Chamber from Heaven

Chapter 700 Chu Xuan enters the palace and the mental game begins

"Your Majesty, the Fifth Prince requests an audience!"

  In the Daming Palace, Emperor Ming Kang, who had not yet rested, raised his head, somewhat surprised. It was already this late, and Chu Xuan had not rested yet?

"What's the matter? If it's not a big deal, let's talk about it tomorrow! I'm a little tired."

Emperor Ming Kang waved his hand, not really wanting to see his prince.

After the joy brought by the victory, his emotions calmed down, his tense nerves relaxed at once, and sleepiness soon came over him, so at this time, Emperor Ming Kang didn't want to see anyone.

  Dai Quan stood at the bottom and paused slightly. Chu Xuan didn't say what it was, but looking at the other party's appearance, it didn't seem to be a trivial matter, so he was a little hesitant at this moment. Should he say it?

Now his master seemed to be a little tired, but the things that happened before made him dare not take it lightly. What if it was something that could expose the whole world, and he didn't report it to the emperor in time, it would be his dereliction of duty.

"Ok??"

Seeing that Dai Quan had not made any movement for a long time, Emperor Ming Kang raised his eyebrows and uttered a light exclamation.

"Your Majesty, the Fifth Prince seems to be very anxious. I have never seen the Fifth Prince like this before. How about seeing him?"

Emperor Ming Kang stood there for a while, then rubbed his temples with his hands, slowly sat back in his chair, supported his forehead with one hand, waved with the other hand, and said, "Let him come in!!"

He still listened to Dai Quan's words. Besides, with Chu Xuan's personality, if it wasn't a very important matter, he would never choose to meet him at this time.

The old guy next to him might be right. Chu Xuan might have something important to say.

Dai Quan bowed and turned away.

Soon Dai Quan came to Chu Xuan again. Looking at the prince in front of him, he said softly, "Your Highness, the Emperor is a little tired today. He originally didn't intend to see you. I saw that Your Highness was anxious, so I had to say something to him. I don't know if it's right or not?"

When Chu Xuan heard this, he glanced at Dai Quan.

  He still had some respect for this eunuch beside Emperor Kang of Ming. He had worked diligently for so many years and had hardly made any major mistakes. With his vision and ability to do things, many ministers would be unable to match him! !

"Don't worry, Chief Steward Dai. If it weren't a big deal, I wouldn't have disturbed Father's mood at this time."

Dai Quan was stunned. He looked at Chu Xuan. Right now, the biggest pressure on the capital was the rebels led by Prince Dongping. Now that Prince Dongping had been defeated, what else was there to worry about?

He hesitated for a moment, then asked in a low voice.

"Didn't the rebel king of Dongping perish together with the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry?"

Chu Xuan was somewhat surprised. He did not expect Dai Quan to have such keen insight.

"I'm afraid that's not what I wanted. That's what I came to see Father to talk about."

Having said this, Chu Xuan stopped talking.

Looking at Chu Xuan's back, Dai Quan suddenly had a feeling in his heart that this prince was going to the palace to meet the emperor today, and he was afraid that something big was really going to happen.

However, he has not received any information about this matter. You know, he is also the chief of the secret guards! If something really happened to Prince Dongping, and the secret guards have not received any information yet, then it will be a big deal.

"Cough cough~~"

Dai Quan coughed twice, then he whispered: "Go check what's going on with Prince Dongping?" The lights outside the room were dim and there was no sound at this time, but there was an echo in the dark.

"Yes!"

In the room, Chu Xuan was shocked when he saw Emperor Ming Kang open his mouth.

"Father, I received a secret report that Prince Dongping is not dead!!"

  Emperor Ming Kang was stunned. He frowned and wondered if he had heard it wrong. The good news had already been reported back. Did he, the prince, know what he was talking about?

"Xuan'er, do you know what you are talking about?"

Emperor Ming Kang's voice was intimidating without him being angry. Even Chu Xuan could feel the suffocating sense of oppression.

Chu Xuan knew that his father was probably really angry, but this was exactly what he wanted. He came here not to send blessings, but to bring bad news.

"Prince Dongping is in the Marquis Guanjun's mansion!"

Chu Xuan did not directly say that Prince Dongping was in collusion with the Marquis of Guanjun's Mansion. This was taught to him by the lame old Taoist priest. One should not be suspicious only if one can come to the conclusion of a matter by oneself. He could not say right away that Prince Dongping was in contact with Jia Hong. Not only would it be illogical, it would also arouse the other party's suspicion.

When Emperor Ming Kang heard this, he suddenly fell silent. He first glanced at Chu Xuan, but there was no abnormality on Chu Xuan's face at this time. He couldn't guess what his prince was planning in his mind.

  Jia Hong colluded with Prince Dongping? ?

He didn't believe this result, and even said that it was not possible at all.

Because he is now certain that Jia Hong is not an ordinary person. In other words, Jia Hong looks down on Prince Dongping, a mortal. He even looks down on the imperial court.

"Xuan'er, do you think it's possible?"

After a while, Emperor Ming Kang spoke again.

The Fifth Prince was stunned. He had thought of many reactions in his mind, but Emperor Ming Kang's reaction was beyond his expectations.

However, Chu Xuan reacted quickly, and he had to pay attention to this issue.

"Father, the information I received only revealed the whereabouts of the Prince of Dongping. As for whether the Prince of Dongping has any connection with the Marquis of Guanjun's Mansion, I cannot confirm this. However, I believe that there should be no collusion between the Marquis of Guanjun and the Prince of Dongping. The Prince of Dongping was killed by the Marquis of Guanjun. There is a life-and-death feud between the two. Under such circumstances, the Prince of Dongping will never choose to cooperate with Jia Hong!"

When Emperor Ming Kang heard this, he became suspicious.

In this situation, given his son's personality, he would not do anything to help others in need, so it's good enough that he doesn't add insult to injury.

However, there was one thing that the lame old Taoist was not wrong about. The more Chu Xuan explained that there was no connection between the Marquis of Guanjun Mansion and the Prince of Dongping, and that there would be no collusion, the more Emperor Ming Kang would feel that there must be a connection between them and that there must be something going on that he was not aware of.

Jia Hong is Jia Hong, and Guanjun Marquis Mansion is Guanjun Marquis Mansion. Jia Hong can represent Guanjun Marquis Mansion, but Guanjun Marquis Mansion cannot represent Jia Hong. Now Jia Hong has disappeared for almost half a year, and Jia Hong is not necessarily the decision maker for the decisions made by Guanjun Marquis Mansion.

"Who sent the message?"

Of course, as a decision-maker of an empire, Emperor Ming Kang was not so easy to fool, so after knowing this, he asked another key question. Even the secret guards could not find out such a secret, so how did Chu Xuan get it?

Chu Xuan's eyes flickered twice, and then he said, "She is a maid in the Guanjun Marquis's mansion."
