Sword Emperor of the Astonishing Sky

The spies of Jiuyou Demon Palace have spread among all the major forces in the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm. This is inevitable.

Not to mention the royal family of the Chu State, even within the Tianshui Sect, there must be remnants of the Nine Nether Demon Palace.

For example, during the Battle of Shuijinghai, there were thousands of Tiandimen spies hidden in Tianshui Sect, including many elders in high positions.

Lin Bai would never believe that there were no spies from the Nine Nether Demon Palace in the Chu royal family.

Miss Shen Xian chuckled and said, "Whether it is Prince Liang's Mansion or Prince Hong's Mansion, there used to be countless spies from the Nine Nether Demon Palace in the mansion."

"According to Chao Yushi's investigation, there are at least hundreds of spies in the Jiuyou Demon Palace in Prince Liang's palace, ranging from the maids in the palace to the concubines of Prince Liang."

"Then tell me... Prince Liang's Mansion, should he die or not?"

Lin Bai looked solemn, took a deep breath, and didn't speak for a long time.

Why is it so messy?

Why is Prince Liang's Mansion connected to the Nine Nether Demon Palace?

Can't something be simpler?

"If it is confirmed that Prince Liang's Mansion is in contact with Jiuyou Demon Palace, then Prince Liang's Mansion will naturally die." Lin Bai replied very firmly.

"Now that you have the evidence, when do you plan to take action?"

Lin Bai asked for a key piece of evidence. Since Chao Yushi and the others have obtained evidence of the connection between Prince Liang's Mansion and Jiuyou Demon Palace, they should meet Emperor Chu and provide evidence as they did back then.

Miss Shen Xian shook her head and said, "If it were back then, maybe I would have done this long ago, but not now."

Lin Bai was puzzled, "Why not now?"

Miss Shen Xian glanced at Lin Bai in disbelief, "Aren't you usually very smart? Why are you so stupid today?"

She slowly explained: "Now Emperor Chu's birthday is approaching. After his birthday, Emperor Chu will step down."

"Prince Liang's Mansion intends to compete for the throne. If the evidence is presented to Emperor Chu now, if you were Prince Liang... what would you do?"

Lin Bai made a simple thought: "If I were the King of Liang, I would rise up, lead my troops, and capture the imperial capital."

As the most powerful military king in Chu State today, King Liang has many powerful men serving under him, and he also controls the power of Chu State's military.

If he wants to rise up, few people in Chu State can stop him.

Thinking of this, Lin Bai seemed to understand the forbearance of Prince Hong's Mansion and Miss Shen Xian.

Miss Shen Xian nodded, "After the destruction of Prince Hong's Mansion, the old army was dispersed, and most of the military forces respected Prince Liang."

"If the most powerful military king in Chu is forced to rebel, this is definitely not what we want to see."

"So it is not the best time to submit the evidence to Emperor Chu at the moment."

Lin Bai rolled his eyes, as if he had thought of something, and said slowly: "So you plan to wait until the new emperor succeeds to the throne after Emperor Chu resigns, and then deal with Prince Liang's Mansion."

"Because at that time, Prince Hong's Mansion had another natural ally, and that was the new emperor."

"Whether His Highness Prince Chen or the third prince becomes the new emperor, he will have to deal with Prince Liang's palace."

Miss Shen Xian didn't say any more, but nodded.

Lin Bai felt that there was no problem with the arrangements of the old department of Prince Hong's Mansion.

Judging from the current situation, waiting until the new emperor succeeds may be the best choice.

"Princess, the Chaoyu Stone has arrived."

At this time, a kind and kind voice came from outside the study. It was the voice of the great steward Lin Bo.

"Let him in."

Miss Shen Xian ordered.

The door to the study room opened, Chao Yushi lowered his head and walked quickly in. He knelt down in front of the desk where Miss Shen Xian was sitting, "Chao Yushi pays homage to the princess."

"There's no need to be polite to uncle, just get up." Miss Shen Xian chuckled lightly and asked Chao Yushi to stand up.

After Chao Yushi stood up, he saw Lin Bai sitting on the first chair under the desk, "It turns out that Lord Lang is here too."

After he said this, his eyes suddenly became dark and cunning.

He seemed to have guessed the reason why Miss Shen Xian called him over, but he didn't say it out loud.

Miss Shen Xian said, "It was Mr. Langhou who asked you to come here. He has something to tell you."

Chao Yushi nodded and faced Lin Bai, "Please give me your instructions, Mr. Langhou."

Lin Bai took a deep breath, "I have already completed the first step of what I planned with you. Next, I will ask you to complete the second step."

In the first step, Lin Bai revealed in public that he knew the cause of death of the eldest prince and the second prince, intentionally or unintentionally.

In the second step, Chao Yushi will use the power of Prince Hong's Palace to make the matter bigger and spread to the entire territory of Chu State.

The most important thing is... to spread it to the ears of the third prince, make the third prince uneasy, and force the third prince to take action.

Chao Yushi nodded, "Don't worry, Mr. Langhou. Tomorrow this matter will spread throughout the imperial capital, and the day after tomorrow it will spread throughout the Chu Kingdom. Within three days, everyone in the Eastern Region will know about it!"

He paused and then said, "Please also prepare yourself, Mr. Langhou. Once you attract the attention of the Third Prince, he will definitely send warriors to kill you!"

Lin Bai added, "Or maybe he sent warriors to kill Xia Jingzhi!"

Chao Yushi was stunned for a moment, thought about it carefully, and nodded: "Yes, the third prince may also try to eradicate the root cause."

Lin Bai said: "So, I need Prince Hong's Mansion to help me find Xia Jingzhi's traces."

The Imperial Capital is extremely huge, and the power of Lin Bai and Tianshui Sect in the Imperial Capital is simply not enough to find Xia Jingzhi's whereabouts.

The Dark World has no right to interfere in the affairs of the royal family and the five families and seven sects, so they must not be found.

At the moment, we can only hope that the forces in Prince Hong's Mansion can help find Xia Jingzhi's traces.

"I will try my best to pay attention to it later." Chao Yushi agreed and then asked: "Then what I have agreed with Mr. Lang... I wonder how Mr. Lang has considered it?"

Lin Bai looked calm. He first turned to look at Miss Shen Xian, then withdrew his eyes and said calmly: "This is a favor I owe to Prince Hong's Mansion. If Prince Hong's Mansion needs it in the future, I can do it within my ability." Do something for Prince Hong’s Mansion unconditionally.”

"Is this enough?"

Chao Yushi rolled his eyes and nodded with satisfaction, "That's the best. I always ask Lord Lang for his words, and Lord Lang's words are enough."

Lin Bai nodded, "When do you expect the third prince to take action after the news spreads?"

Chao Yushi frowned and shook his head, "It's hard to say. There are many shady people in the Third Prince's Sun Moon Pavilion, and the Third Prince has always been calm. Even after the news gets out, he will probably choose to wait and see."

"I estimate it will be within two or three months. If there is no movement from the Third Prince within two or three months, then we will think of other ways."

Lin Bai nodded with satisfaction. This was originally the plan he and Chao Yushi had decided to "lead the snake out of the hole". If the plan failed, he would naturally think of other countermeasures.

When Miss Shen Xian saw the two of them finished chatting, she curiously asked, "What's the agreement between you?"

"Why can't I understand what you are saying?"
