"Please trouble you, Eunuch. I need to see Father Emperor as soon as possible, as it concerns Mother Emperor," Honghui said solemnly.

Seeing this, Su Peisheng knew things were bad, so he quickly went inside and then came out again, saying, "Please come in, First Prince!"

"Your subject greets Your Majesty." Honghui explained the situation on the Empress Dowager's side in detail.

After listening, Yinzhen's expression remained unchanged. He looked at Honghui and asked, "What do you think should be done about this?"

Honghui had been pondering this matter all the way. The Empress Dowager used the late Emperor as a pretext to force the Emperor to investigate. She also took advantage of the timing, launching her attack the morning after returning to the palace. At this time, no palace had been thoroughly cleaned, making it difficult to detect any tampering done in advance.

Mother is still trapped by the Empress Dowager's side. Even if we start inspecting Yikun Palace now, it will take time to check such a large palace inch by inch.

In short, Mother was defeated by the Empress Dowager.

At this moment, the Empress Dowager finally made Honghui realize that this was the late Emperor's Consort De. He was too lazy to talk about her previous idiotic actions.

This was an open strategy; when the Empress Dowager realized she couldn't use maternal affection to manipulate Yinzhen, she revealed her true intentions.

If Yinzhen surrenders, she might consider letting the Empress go, since the Empress currently represents not only herself, but also the legitimate sons.

Either Yinzhen would stubbornly resist, or the Empress Dowager would directly nail Yihua to the pillar of shame, for as Empress, she could not have even the slightest stain on her reputation.

Looking at his father's calm and composed demeanor, Honghui had a sudden inspiration: "I am foolish, but perhaps Father Emperor had already made arrangements?"

"You're not too stupid. Don't be like your Empress Dowager, who acts without thinking and offends people badly, yet still thinks out of sight, out of mind. How naive." After saying this, Yinzhen stood up. "Let's go. If I don't go, the show can't begin!"
