The advice of Yu Yanyi and his courtiers was ultimately not adopted by the new king.

But Zhu Zhankun also knew that the ministers were dissatisfied with this matter, so he adopted a compromise method.

On the grounds that royal family secrets were not allowed to be leaked, he handed the case over to Xichang for investigation, with Hulong Villa assisting in the investigation and the Metropolitan Procuratorate supervising it.

Although this answer did not meet the psychological expectations of the ministers, after all, it was no longer Xichang's decision, so it was still acceptable.

Besides, there is nothing they can do if they don't accept it.

Although Yu Yanyi was a bachelor of Wuyingdian and the chief minister of the cabinet, no matter how powerful he was, one fact could not be escaped.

Yu Yanyi is a minister, and Zhu Zhankun is the king!

When the emperor makes a mistake, his ministers can rebuke him directly, but after the emperor makes a mistake, he is still the emperor.

Although it is not like Blue Star who dismissed hundreds of schools of thought and only respected Confucianism.

However, Confucianism is still widely recognized.

Confucianism is very tolerant towards monarchs. A sage monarch is a monarch, and a cowardly monarch is also a monarch.

Unless he is a tyrant like Xia Jie and Shang Zhou, the monarch's authority and status cannot be shaken, even if he makes mistakes.

Today, Yu Yanyi was not only on duty at Wuying Hall, but also used Fenghan as his soldier. After the court dispersed, Yu Yanyi went straight back to the mansion.

Zhao Zheng is already waiting in Yu Yanyi's mansion, and now he is Yu Yanyi's fanboy.

"Master Yu, what can you find?!"

Yu Yanyi shook his head, "The emperor took action first!"

"..."

Although Zhao Zheng didn't know what happened, he could hear the crisis from Yu Yanyi's tone.

"Today, Cao Zhengchun took the initiative to accuse His Highness the King of Chu of colluding with the King of Medicine to poison the Emperor."

"..." Zhao Zheng was startled by Yu Yanyi's words.

The master of the Dongxuan Realm was so angry that he was trembling with anger at these shameless words.

"How dare he do this?! How dare he do this?!"

As a close friend of the King of Chu, Zhao Zheng naturally knew what the King of Chu had done and whether he poisoned the late emperor.

Since the late emperor was not poisoned by the King of Chu, there is only one promise.

"Your Excellency, it must be this tyrant who poisoned the late emperor to usurp the throne before him, and slandered his brother and unjustly killed the prince behind him. Such behavior? It is in vain to call him a man!!"

As the prime minister of the imperial court, Yu Yanyi's ability to understand people's hearts is naturally first-rate.

Whether it was fighting side by side with the King of Chu in Jinyang, or his recent interactions with Zhao Zheng.

He can clearly see the character of both people.

If this matter was not done by the King of Chu and his family, then it was only the Son of Heaven.

Although there is no evidence, it can be deduced from logic and results that the King of Chu did not have any reason to poison the emperor.

Although the King of Chu was the legitimate son of the late emperor, he was only the second son. Although the prince was disliked by the late emperor, the late emperor would not depose the crown prince, so he was the perfect choice to succeed the empire.

No matter how wise and outstanding the King of Chu was, he could never rise to power.

There are direct descendants, but there are no direct descendants.

This is an iron law recorded in the Zhou ancestral system, and it is a rule personally set by Taizu Emperor Gao.

Not to mention the King of Chu, even Emperor Taizong Wen did not dare to disobey him. If he really wanted to support the King of Chu, he would definitely find an excuse to depose the prince first.

Under such circumstances, how could the King of Chu poison the late Emperor?

Even if the King of Chu really wanted to poison the late emperor, he would not have been able to control the capital and seize the opportunity to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor.

But the ending was that on the night Emperor Taizongwen passed away, the prince was the first to arrive at the palace while King Chu was still sleeping there. It was not until nearly dawn that King Chu got the news.

By this time, the prince had taken control of the imperial city and the imperial army.

Then isn't the King of Chu's behavior just helping the prince to ascend to the throne?

Is the King of Chu a fool?! Obviously not, not only is he not stupid, but he is absolutely courageous and decisive. A qualified general will not be an indecisive person.

Inferring from the results, it is actually very clear.

However, the matter of regicide and patricide cannot be based on mere inference.

"Your Excellency, are you just going to watch this thief do such an outrageous thing, killing his father and killing his brother?! The late sage once said: Filial piety and brotherhood are the foundation of benevolence and righteousness."

Zhao Zheng's tone became more and more excited, "Killing one's biological father is unfilial; killing one's brothers is unkind; interfering with one's relatives is unkind; killing the king and usurping the throne is unfaithful. This is unfaithful, unkind, and unfilial.

Those who are jealous are not worthy of being a human being, not to mention being a king!"

Although Zhao Zheng is a member of the Imperial Guard, he has also obtained the title of Juren. This statement is reasonable and well-founded.

Even Yu Yanyi nodded in his heart.

After a brief silence, Yu Yanyi opened his eyes.

"Zhao Zheng, for such a big matter, it is impossible to convict the prince just based on inference."

The original emperor has become the prince in Yu Yanyi's mouth, which already explains the change in Yu Yanyi's mentality.

When Yu Yanyi becomes the chief minister of the cabinet, he will naturally become more than just a loyal, honest and good minister with high moral character.

For example, on Blue Star, is Bao Longtu not pure enough or Haigang Peak not loyal enough?!

But Bao Longtu's limit is just bachelor of Longtuge and deputy privy envoy; and the peak of Haigang Peak is just the censor of Nanjing Youdu.

Neither man ever truly entered the center of power.

But Yu Yanyi was different. He was the chief assistant of the cabinet, a scholar of Wuyingdian Palace, and a minister of the Ministry of War. He was a person who stood at the pinnacle of power in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Not only did he ensure his own purity, he was also able to mediate party disputes and overwhelm the officials.

This ability is not possessed by Bao Longtu and Haigangfeng.

He is more like the Prime Minister Di Renjie above Blue Star. He can reconcile the two factions of Li and Wu. Wen can govern the country and Wu can secure the border. This indirectly ensures that Li Tang regains power.

But Di Renjie's temperament is more diplomatic, while Yu Yanyi's character is more loyal.

With Yu Yanyi's ability and vision, he naturally knew that the 70% probability that Zhao Zheng just said was true.

"However, I can promise you! I will definitely prevent the prince from killing His Highness the King of Chu."

Yu Yanyi paused for a moment, "If there is really evidence that the prince has committed regicide and usurped the throne, I will fight for eternal infamy to do what Yihuo did for the world and the country."

Yiyin Huoguang, as a minister, deposed and established the emperor.

…

In a restaurant on the side of the imperial city.

The new king Zhu Zhankun was meeting a man in gray robes, "I have designated Medicine King Sun Shichang as a demon according to the agreement with you. The imperial edict will be issued immediately and then spread throughout the world!"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The man in gray robe nodded. Although he did not achieve the goal he wanted, he still made some money back.

He originally wanted Zhu Zhankun to point directly at Zhang Sanfeng, but Zhu Zhankun was not stupid and ultimately refused.

The main reason is that he is also afraid! Zhu Zhankun has already experienced the martial arts of Fa Tian Xiang Di Realm.

In a sense, Fa Tian Xiang Di Realm can already ignore the number of people. Unless there are famous generals like Yang Qingyuan and Li Chengen to suppress them, no matter how many people there are, they are just waiting to be slaughtered in front of Fa Tian Xiang Di Realm masters.

Lamb.

The laws of the sky and the earth are like that, even if you are clothed in commoners, you can still laugh at the arrogance of the noble minister.

In the view of Zhu Zhankun, who is not good at martial arts, Zhang Sanfeng is the strongest person in the realm of Fa Tian Xiang Di.

Of course, from another perspective, it doesn’t seem to be a big problem.

Out of fear for masters of the Fa, Tianxiang and Earth Realm, Zhu Zhankun did not throw the blame on Zhang Sanfeng.

If he offended him and came down directly from Wudang Mountain, Zhu Zhankun felt that he would be in a lot of trouble.

Although Sun Shichang was not very skilled in martial arts, he was an important figure in the Taoist sect and had a close relationship with Wudang.

Defining Sun Shichang as a demon will also shake Wudang's status to a certain extent.

This is why people in gray robes can accept it.

Although the Taoist sect is in the mountains and has little care for secular affairs, its current strength is at its peak.

Zhenwu Dao Zun on Wudang Mountain, Beiming Master of Louguantai Celestial Being Sect, and Lao Celestial Master of Celestial Master Mansion on Longhu Mountain are all top masters.

Although these Taoist priests like to be vegetarian, they are not vegetarian.

Even the people from the Buddhist sect, who have always been in tit-for-tat with the Taoist sect and suppressed the Demonic sect, dare not take advantage of him.

The man in gray robe didn't expect to kill the Taoist sect with one stroke, so slowly encroaching was his strategy.

"I have fulfilled the first condition of my promise to you."

Zhu Zhankun looked gloomy, while the gray-robed man opposite him chuckled.

"The price I paid before was not low. If your sweetheart queen had taken the Tianchang Pill early, she would only have two years left to live!"
