The fifth prince in the book always uses his own strength to make the second and third princes, who are in the limelight, kill each other and weaken each other's power, just like what happened with the Shu family this time.

But once, the hero and heroine in the book were in deep crisis and hid in a secret passage in a hurry. Who knew that the secret passage turned out to be the place where the imperial concubine had a tryst with a foreign minister. The two were shocked at the time, but they were discovered.

With no way to escape, the two were forced to fight their way out and expose the matter.

The emperor soon learned the news and was so shocked that he knocked over his most precious inkstone. Then, before the situation escalates, block the news and control the rumors. Such a royal scandal must not be leaked out.

Immediately afterwards, he brought all relevant personnel to the main hall for interrogation, and then found out an incredible event - the second prince turned out to be the son of the foreign minister.

The emperor, who was already seriously ill, vomited a mouthful of blood on the spot and fainted.

After waking up, he listed the charges against the imperial concubine and the foreign minister and executed them secretly.

As for the second prince, probably for the sake of face, the emperor spared his life and demoted him to a commoner first. Later he was exiled to the northwest and was killed on the way.

Everyone knows who did it.

It would be fine if things ended here, but the emperor is the most face-saving person. This scandal was brought about by the male and female protagonists, and he did not intend to keep these two people.

Also finding a crime, the emperor sent the male and female protagonists to prison.

The male and female protagonists were the fifth prince's people at the time, and were of great help to the fifth prince, and were his right-hand men.

Naturally, the fifth prince could not just watch them die, so he had no choice but to rescue them.

With this rescue, he appeared in front of others. The third prince, who was not interested in him at first, soon learned of the fifth brother's disguise and pointed the finger at him.

Even the emperor became suspicious of his son and began to suppress him.

Fortunately, the fifth prince was already well-established at the time, and the third prince's power had been severely weakened during years of struggle, and the emperor was seriously ill, so they could not stop the fifth prince from reaching the top.

However, things could have been smoother for the fifth prince originally, but because of this incident, many twists and turns occurred and he suffered a lot. And after he ascends the throne, there will always be some rumors spreading that he is not orthodox enough.

So when Meng Yuncheng talked about Gong Qiu's affair with the concubines in the harem, the words "imperial concubine" flashed in her mind.

After all, there are really not many people who are so courageous.

Shu Yu said to Meng Yunzheng, "I heard you mention the Liu family's encounter with assassins. I thought that among the concubines in the palace, only Concubine Liu's family had such an experience."

"That happened twenty years ago. I didn't expect you to know about it."

Shu Yu laughed dryly. She knows everything that will happen twenty years later. Do you believe it or not?

She changed the subject, "Then have you ever thought that the second prince might also be that man's son?"

Meng Yuncheng suddenly looked at her, "You, what did you say?"

"Well... I'm just guessing. We have to make bold guesses and verify them carefully, right? Think about it, the imperial concubine and Gong Qiu have hooked up so early, and their relationship is so good, then the possibility that the second prince is his son is also No." She paused, then suddenly lowered her voice and said mysteriously, "Even if he is not his son, he can still be his son."

Meng Yuncheng narrowed his eyes slightly and began to think deeply.
