After Concubine Mu said these words, the entire Mu family seemed to be grasping at straws.

Many ministers endured nausea and knelt down in the blood, then kowtowed and begged for mercy.

"Yes, Prince Youshan's palace is very ambitious, and Prince Youshan Li Chengan is ambitious. I'm afraid what happened today was really his fault."

"Not only does he want to kill your Majesty, he also wants to frame the Seventh Prince, Princess Chang Lin and His Highness the Crown Prince."

They were quite smart and knew that just talking about Chu Yuemu and Chu Changlin might not be useful, so they also involved Chu Yuefu.

Sure enough, after hearing this, the Qin family.

They also quickly knelt down.

"Please, Your Majesty, be aware that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Queen have absolutely no different intentions. This time, the criminals were too thoughtful, so they were taken advantage of. Please Your Majesty, please don't let anyone who is questionable go unnoticed, and please clear the Crown Prince and Queen's innocence. "

They were not stupid enough to directly name Prince Youshan as the mastermind.

They were vague, as long as the prince and queen were removed, it didn't matter whether the murderer was King Youshan or the seventh prince.

Anyway, if something happens to either of these two people, it will be beneficial and harmless to the prince's party.

Chu Yuemu also reacted. He crawled over and grabbed Chu Zai's dragon robe.

"Father, you have watched my son grow up. I have absolutely no intention of seeking power and usurping the throne. Please ask my father to find out the truth."

Chu Zai lowered his head and looked at him with a sarcastic tone: "Really? Do you really have no intention of seeking power and usurping the throne?"

When he said these words, Chu Yuemu's body stiffened and his eyes dodged.

"No, Your Majesty, how could Mu'er have such unyielding intentions?"

Concubine Mu suddenly raised her head, she held Chu Yuemu's arm tightly, and then explained to Chu Zai.

Chu Yuemu reacted and kowtowed quickly: "Yes, father and son, I have absolutely no different intentions."

Chu Zai did not say whether he believed what they said.

His eyes swept across His Highness's crowd, and finally landed on Chu Yuezheng.

"Zheng'er, what do you think?"

Soon, countless eyes began to fall on Chu Yuezheng and Concubine Hong.

Chu Changlin spoke to Concubine Hong in a very embarrassed tone: "Sister Hong, you know who I am. How could I come all the way back to murder the emperor's brother? Please explain it to me and the emperor's brother."

Seeing her, she actually asked Concubine Hong for help.

Many people thought of her and Mr. Hong, and their expressions were very subtle for a moment.

Concubine Hong covered her mouth with a handkerchief and coughed. She said quietly: "Princess Changlin, if you really didn't do anything, the emperor will naturally restore your innocence."

"Father, I think the most important thing now is to find King Youshan." Chu Yuezheng also spoke slowly at this time.

After hearing his words, Chu Zai's face improved a little.

"Then according to what the fourth prince said, where are the Imperial Guards?"

"I'm here."

Soon, the leaders of the Royal Forest Army began to stand up.

"Look for me. Even if you dig three feet into the ground, you must find King Youshan." Chu Zai ordered in a gloomy tone.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After giving the order to the Royal Forest Army, Chu Zai's faint eyes swept over everyone: "Tonight is supposed to be a day of celebration, but it has caused such a troublesome thing. It is Xi Chu who has made everyone unhappy."

"Wherever I go, where I go, the safety of Emperor Xi Chu is important."

"Yes, we are well protected by the Imperial Guard."

The envoys quickly laughed and spoke.

"It's just that the murderer hasn't been found yet, and I'm worried that they will vent their anger on you. So I would like to trouble you all to stay in the palace. When the murderer is found and you are sure that you are safe, I will have someone escort you back to the inn."

Chu Zai spoke again.

Although the voice was calm, the tone... was unmistakable.

The corners of the envoys' mouths twitched.

They murmured in their hearts whether it was to protect them, to monitor them, or to suspect that they were murderers and now lock them up for investigation.

I thought I was just here to attend the Xichuqing state banquet, but I didn't expect that I would be invited in.

What bad luck!

However, no matter how many complaints they have in their hearts, it is difficult to express them.

They smiled and nodded: "The Emperor of Western Chu is also worried about our safety, so we can just stay."

"It's too bloody here. Please move to the side hall. Let the imperial doctor come over and see if the envoys and loved ones are injured or frightened."

Chu Rui also spoke.

His voice was full of energy and authority.

Many envoys felt much relieved when they heard this.

They were really frightened to death just now, and now they are still nauseated.

But Chu Zai knew how to threaten them without caring about their feelings.

The Supreme Emperor is different...

No wonder Western Chu has been declining in recent years. It turns out that the emperors are changing from generation to generation.

Although no one said anything, their expressions and atmosphere showed a lot.

Chu Zai's face became much gloomier again.

He looked sideways at Chu Rui, and then said with a half-smile, "My son didn't think carefully, but my father's decision was excellent."

Listening to Chu Zai's words, Chu Rui sighed in his heart.

His son does not have a very high talent for governing the country, and even his mind is very small. He really does not have the ambition of an emperor.

He often wonders these days whether his decision to put Chu Zai on the throne was wrong.

A group of people came to the side hall.

It's spacious enough to accommodate them.

They all sat down.

At the door, they thought they were surrounded by imperial guards. They couldn't leave even if they wanted to. They were really under house arrest.

The imperial doctors were also guarding here. When they saw them coming in, they hurriedly came to check their pulses.

"General Yu, let me take a look at your wound."

At this time, an imperial physician walked up to Yu Yongnian.

Yu Yongnian lowered his head and glanced at the blood on his sleeve. He said quietly: "No need, this is other people's blood. I am not injured."

Hearing this, the imperial doctor quickly went to find the next injured patient.

Yu Yongnian is looking for Yu Yunxi.

After he was sure that she was not far away and had not been harmed in the slightest, his hanging heart dropped.

But the next moment, his heart tightened again.

Because he heard Chu Zai test Su Yin: "What does the eldest princess think of today's assassination?"

Yu Yunxi raised her eyebrows. She was not surprised at all that Chu Zai would test her.

After all, in everyone's eyes, she and Youshan King Li Chengan were so close.

If the other party has the intention of treason, she cannot escape the involvement.

Yu Yunxi put her hands in front of her and walked slowly to the front.

She stood straight and looked calm, showing no signs of panic.

When she reached the middle, she gave a slight salute and then said loudly: "Your Majesty, Yun Xi believes that Princess Changlin and the Seventh Prince are not innocent."

"Yu Yunxi, you bitch, how dare you frame this princess?"

Hearing Yu Yunxi's words, Chu Changlin's eyes instantly became gloomy and terrifying.

She even wanted to get up from the ground and teach Yu Yunxi a lesson.

But Yu Yunxi's look made her feel like her blood was flowing backwards.
