"No, this is not true. You are the one who lied to me, right?" The Prime Minister said madly in disbelief.

The joy he had just felt was suddenly extinguished by a basin of cold water, which extinguished his good mood and replaced it with a bone-chilling feeling that made him shiver.

"Prime Minister, do you still want to deceive yourself? All this is true. Your dream of spring and autumn has come to an end. You'd better think about losing your head." The Duke of Protector said sarcastically.

"So what even if you know? Do you have any evidence?" the Prime Minister said with forced calmness.

"You won't cry until you see the coffin. Without any evidence, the local guild will come to arrest people. Look there? Isn't it the best evidence?" The Duke of Protector of the Country said with a sneer.

Stupid, really stupid.

There is a pile of evidence in the secret cabinet, but he still dares to say there is no evidence.

"If the truth is destroyed, there will be no evidence, and you will be unable to do anything about it.

Hahahaha!" The Prime Minister said, and prepared to take the letters and account books in the secret cabinet and destroy them.

When the Duke of Protectorate spoke out, he knew that the Prime Minister would destroy the evidence.

When the prime minister was preparing to take action, the letters and account books had already been taken away.

The Prime Minister was extremely angry when he saw that his goal had failed, and rushed over to try to get the evidence back.

How could the Duke of Protectorate do as he wished? When the prime minister rushed over, he had already put the letter in his arms, raised his hand holding the account book, and kicked the prime minister away.

"Ah!" The prime minister fell to the ground, howling in pain.

"Come here! This duke, under the orders of the King of Jin, has the Prime Minister plotting treason. This is a heinous crime, and he is imprisoned and awaiting the Emperor's decision."

The Duke of Protectorate said to the Prime Minister.

Song Haiwei came in with his three younger brothers and saw the prime minister sitting on the ground, still wearing a dragon robe. The four brothers were shocked and puzzled.

"Father, what's going on?" Song Haiwei asked the Duke of Protectorate in confusion.

"Just as you saw, the Prime Minister wanted to rebel and become emperor himself.

You guys take off the dragon robe from him, put it away, take it back, and wait for King Jin to come back and hand it over to him to deal with it.

Then, take the Prime Minister and his family to the Ministry of Justice and throw them into prison until the Prince of Jin returns to deal with them.” The Duke of Protectorate instructed his four sons.

"Yes, Father!"

Song Haiwei and Song Haichao held down the prime minister, took off the dragon robe and put it in a box.

Song Haiwei held the box, and Song Haichao escorted the prime minister, followed by Hu Huigong, out of the secret room and out of the study.

"Come here, take the Prime Minister's family to the Ministry of Justice prison, send people to seal the Prime Minister's residence, and send a hundred people to surround the Prime Minister's residence. No one is allowed to enter or leave. Anyone who disobeys the order will be executed!" The Duke of Protector of the Country gave the order.

"Yes, Your Excellency the Duke!" the soldiers of the Protectorate said in unison.

Song Haiwei took the soldiers and took the prime minister's family to the Ministry of Justice. The prime minister's family members were crying and howling in agony.

This rebellion ended perfectly when the prime minister was thrown into jail.

At dawn, the streets of the capital were cleared.

In the morning, when the people got up, they did not see any corpses or bloodstains, which made them think for a moment that it was just a dream.

After Shangguan Feiyun finished praying, he returned to the capital with a group of ministers.

At noon, he returned to the palace.

Gao Xuankai, Zhu Yanduan, Li Boyu and the Duke of Huguo went into the palace and went to the imperial study to meet Prince Jin.

"Your Highness, these are the evidence of the Prime Minister's rebellion." The Duke of Protectorate handed over the account books, letters, and dragon robe to the Prince of Jin.

"Good, very good, you actually dare to aspire to be the emperor, you are really good.

Thank you all for your hard work. I will give you a day off.

The Duke can take your son to Qingshan Village.

Gao Xuankai, Zhu Yanduan, and Li Boyu, you escort the Duke of Huguo and his family to Qingshan Village, and then stay to follow the princess's arrangements.

"Remember, you must loyally obey the princess, just as you would obey me. She will be your mistress. If you disobey or have second thoughts, you will be treated as a traitor." Shangguan Feiyun sternly warned Gao Xuankai, Zhu Yanduan, and Li Boyu.

"Yes, master!" Gao Xuankai, Zhu Yanduan and Li Boyu said at the same time.

"Thank you, Your Highness!" the Protector of the Country said sincerely.

"All of you step back!" said Shangguan Feiyun.

"I (your subordinates) take my leave!" The four Dukes of Protectorate knelt down in unison.

The Duke of Huguo, Gao Xuankai, Zhu Yanduan and Li Boyu walked out of the imperial study together, and the four of them happily discussed the time of departure.

"Duke, when are we going to set off?" Gao Xuan asked the Duke of Protectorate.

"We'll meet at the main gate of the capital at noon tomorrow," said the Duke of Protectorate.

"Okay, we will arrive on time at noon tomorrow." Gao Xuankai said.

At the palace gate, everyone went their separate ways and returned to their own courtyards.

Shangguan Feiyun took Eunuch Shen out of the palace through the dark cave and went to the second prince's palace.

"What are you doing here? Are you here to laugh at me?" The second prince said with a sneer when he saw Shangguan Feiyun coming in.

"Of course, your Majesty has come to see my good brother. I wonder what it feels like to be imprisoned?" Shangguan Feiyun said.

“The winner is the king, the loser is the enemy. I am not as skilled as others, so there is nothing to complain about.

"My brother, I have no complaints if he wants to fight or kill me," said the second prince.

"Why do you do this? Isn't it good to be a prince?" Shangguan Feiyun asked.

"Okay, how about being a prince?

Brother, don't tell me you don't want to be the emperor? Don't you think it's hypocritical?

"You covet that position yourself, but you don't allow others to have the same? My brother, are you really hypocritical?" The second prince said sarcastically in an excited tone.

"Whatever you say, I came here mainly to tell you that your dear grandfather, the Prime Minister, is just using you to help him achieve his own goals?" Shangguan Feiyun said.

"What did you say? What does this mean?" the second prince asked excitedly.
