Chapter 149 Concubine Shu's Prophecy
"Concubine Shu has been insane since she lost her son. Although Master Wugou cured her madness, she always said some inexplicable things." Zhu Zhen put the teacup on the table, Looking at Zhu Qi with a look full of deep meaning.

"It is said that Concubine Shu occasionally reveals some unknown secrets. After verification, what she said is accurate."

When Zhu Kai heard this, he still didn't understand the meaning of Zhu Zhen's words.

"Just a few days ago, Concubine Shu suddenly said that her son is still alive and will become emperor in the future."

"Ridiculous!" Zhu Qi just wanted to pick up the teacup, but when he heard Zhu Zhen say that, he put the teacup heavily on the table.

"Her son died a long time ago, and now she's just talking nonsense again, how can you believe it!"

"You can be sure that he is really dead?" Zhu Zhen said lightly.

"Can you live if you don't die?" Zhu Qi curled his lips, "You are also a witness to what happened back then, so you won't forget it, right?"

"Hehe, forgetting is never forgotten." Zhu Zhen sneered, and then changed the topic, "But you should also know that his body was not found in the end."

"I know, it's rumored that someone stole it." Zhu Qi nodded.

"You said that a prince who is destined to die soon, why would someone steal him away?"

"You mean..." Zhu Qi had never thought about this before, but now that Zhu Zhen brought it up, he couldn't help but alert him.

"I once sent people to investigate, but found nothing."

Hearing this, Zhu Kai curled his lips. He didn't believe Zhu Zhen's statement at all. The other party must have found out something.

"So I focused all my attention on Concubine Shu who left the palace."

"Ever since Concubine Shu went crazy, she has been living in Geyue Nunnery, and her mind has gradually recovered in the past few years."

"At the same time, there was a rumor in the Moon Temple that Concubine Shu can now predict the future."

"Predict the future?" Zhu Qi was full of disdain after hearing this. He would never believe this kind of nonsense. Just now she knew a lot of secrets, and now she said that she can know the future.

"I didn't believe it at first, but the rumor became more and more popular, so I sent someone to record all the prophecies spoken by Concubine Shu, and verify them later."

"How is the result?"

"What can be verified so far is all accurate!" Zhu Zhen's tone was somewhat solemn.

"Oh? It's really so powerful!" Zhu Qi still couldn't believe it.

"Even if she was right, I wouldn't be able to find you, but Concubine Shu suddenly broke the news a few days ago."

Before Zhu Kai could ask, Zhu Zhen continued: "She said her son is still alive and will become emperor in the future."

Zhu Kai: "..."

You've said it all before, no need to repeat it twice.

"Brother Huang, do you take the nonsense of a crazy woman seriously?" Zhu Qi held the teacup in his hand and took a sip.

Seeing that Zhu Qi didn't take this matter to heart, Zhu Zhen was not angry, but smiled slightly.

"But Concubine Shu said that his son is now in Hanshan Temple."

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Qi's hand holding the teacup froze in mid-air, motionless.

"Could it be true?"

"Hehe, you'll find out if you investigate." Zhu Zhen smiled slightly.

Zhu Kai stared closely at Zhu Zhen's eyes without speaking.

The two remained in a stalemate like this, until finally Zhu Qi couldn't help but said, "Okay, then I'll investigate."

After speaking, he got up and left.

Zhu Zhen looked at Zhu Kai's back and sneered, with an inexplicable meaning in his eyes.

Zhu Kai, who returned to the mansion, directly arranged for people to investigate Hanshan Temple without saying a word.

Sure enough, soon a monk's profile suspected to be the third prince Zhu Yu was placed on Zhu Qi's table.

Puyan, 16 years old, was adopted by Zen Master Jiyuan in the temple since he was a child.

They can be matched in age, but how did they become Jiyuan's apprentice?
Zhu Qi couldn't figure it out, but with the attitude of never letting go of a wrong kill, he asked Xiao Zhongju to go forward and arrange people to assassinate him.

Anyway, he was a Buddhist monk, and judging by Jiyuan's appearance, he didn't deliberately protect him, so he killed him first.

But what I thought was easy to do, but something went wrong.

I don't know how Puyan escaped the first wave of assassinations, and the poison he put had no effect on him.

So Zhu Kai ordered Xiao Zhongju to send out a second wave of killers. This time, just in case, not only Puyan was targeted, but all the monks in the temple were listed as must-kill targets.

However, all the people sent out for the second time failed, which attracted Chu Dange's attention.

Fortunately, it was a blessing in disguise, and Zhu Qi was named the King of Jin by Emperor Xia, so he also realized that something was wrong.

The news that Puyan might be the third prince Zhu Yu was revealed to him by Zhu Zhen, maybe it was Zhu Zhen who was playing tricks.

So Zhu Qi didn't plan to continue to send people to hunt down Pu Yan, he was not the only one who wanted to kill Zhu Yu, since his imperial brother was so concerned about this matter, why not let him send people to continue to assassinate him.

Now that Zhu Kai is the king of Jin, he is a big step ahead of Zhu Zhen. Next, he will focus on recruiting more experts.

. . .

An Legong made such a big commotion in the capital, of course he couldn't hide it from the eldest prince Zhu Zhen.

When he heard that the monk Puyan of Hanshan Temple was the missing son of Anle Gong Zhu Jingyan, he also felt incredible.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Zhu Zhen's first reaction was not to believe this, "Is this news accurate?"

"Your Highness, this news should not be wrong." Standing beside a middle-aged Taoist priest, Zhu Zhen said while twisting his beard on his chin.

"This news came from An Le Gong's mansion, and judging from An Le Gong's performance today, it is obvious that he does not intend to hide it anymore, so there will definitely be a big move in the future!" The middle-aged Taoist said in a deep voice.

"Daoist Shangyangzi, tell me, are our previous speculations wrong?" Zhu Zhen frowned, his mind was in a mess.

"Your Highness, do you still remember what Taoist Shou Que said?" Shang Yangzi asked back.

"Taoist Shou Que?" Zhu Zhen muttered to himself, recalling the time when he met Taoist Shou Que.

That year Zhu Zhen led people to hunt in the outskirts of the capital, but in the end of the day, he didn't catch a single prey.

It was strange to say that the woodland was a place where he often went hunting, and ordinary people were not allowed to enter it, so it could be regarded as a royal hunting ground.

Therefore, there are many animals in it, so Zhu Zhen also likes to go hunting there.

But after searching in the forest for a whole day today, he didn't see a single animal, which made Zhu Zhen a little annoyed.

Just at this time, a small deer flashed through the grass.

Seeing this, Zhu Zhen hurriedly bent his bow and set up an arrow, and shot straight at the deer.

Whoosh!
The arrow shot at the deer at an extremely fast speed, and disappeared into the grass.

I don't know if he hit it, but Zhu Zhen chased after him.

After chasing and chasing, I saw an old Taoist priest sitting under a tree in front of him.
