Su Mutianjun shouted angrily, "Hurry up and take the prince away!"

A group of palace servants hurried forward and tried to pull Crown Prince Su Mulihan out of the hall.

However, Su Mulihan struggled desperately, muttering, "I won't go back. I want to play with my brother."

This statement startled everyone present. "Brother? Could it be that the Queen has other children?"

However, what Su Mulihan said next sent shivers down everyone's spines. The previously dim-witted Crown Prince, Su Mulihan, suddenly had a stern look, startling everyone. He straightened his body, his eyes revealing a firmness and clarity, as if he had become a completely different person.

"I am Su Mulige, the crown prince of the Zhaoyang Kingdom!" Su Mulihan's voice was clear and powerful, echoing in the palace like a thunderclap. "Su Mutianjun, you despicable villain! Seven years ago, you murdered your brother to seize the throne, burned down the Eastern Palace, and killed your brother, sister-in-law, and nephew. This is simply unforgivable!"

Su Mutianjun's face suddenly changed when he heard this. He looked at his legitimate son Su Mulihan in shock, as if he couldn't believe what he heard.

He pondered in his heart: Is the Crown Prince... possessed by that short-lived ghost Su Mulige? No! However, according to my uncle Qin Zhenyi, the Crown Princess of Laifeng Kingdom is most likely my nephew Su Mulige...

Thinking of this, Su Mutianjun looked at Hua Qingcheng with a bad face. He wondered, could it be that this woman, Nalan Qingcheng, was causing trouble?! Was she playing tricks to achieve some ulterior motive?

The civil and military officials and princes and nobles at the palace banquet were all in an uproar, whispering to each other.

As everyone knows, the fire in the Eastern Palace killed the former Crown Prince Su Mu Tiansheng and the former Crown Princess Gongsun Muxue. Even their son Su Mu Lige, the former Crown Prince, was not spared, suffering a tragic fate, his body completely destroyed. Could it be that the wronged spirits are now coming to claim their lives?

I saw the Crown Prince Su Mulihan standing in the center of the hall, his expression was sad, angry and resolute. His words pierced Su Mutianjun's heart like a sharp sword, and like a knife, cut Su Mutianjun's face again and again.

Su Mutianjun's expression instantly darkened, a murderous look flashing in his eyes. He looked at Su Mulihan coldly, a cruel smile curling up at the corner of his mouth.

"How dare you, Su Mulihan, slander me! Someone, come here! The crown prince has been insane for several months and now he has suddenly developed a hysterical attack. Take him down immediately!"

Following Su Mutianjun's order, a group of guards quickly rushed into the hall and surrounded Su Mulihan tightly.

"My son, are you possessed by some dirty thing?" Queen Qin Shuyao was horrified when she saw this. She quickly stood up from her seat and walked to the center of the hall below, shaking Su Mulihan's body vigorously.

However, at this moment, Su Mulihan suddenly burst into laughter, his laughter filled with disdain and contempt. He suddenly broke free from Queen Qin Shuyao's hands on his arms, glared at the guards surrounding him, and then walked towards Su Mutianjun step by step.

"Su Mutianjun, are you feeling guilty? Are you afraid that I will expose your crimes? Haha, it's too late! Today, I will avenge my father and mother!" Su Mulihan said as he took out a sharp dagger from his arms and pointed it directly at Su Mutianjun.

A trace of panic appeared on Su Mutianjun's face, but he quickly regained his composure: "Su Mulihan, what nonsense are you talking about? Do you know what you are doing?" he shouted loudly.

Everyone was horrified, exclaiming in shock. They had never imagined that the usually arrogant and conceited Crown Prince would behave so strangely, not only disregarding the dignity of the royal family but even accusing his own father of murdering his brother and sister-in-law, and causing the tragic death of his nephew. Could everything he said be true? Or was it the spirit of the deceased former Crown Prince, speaking through Su Mulihan to redress his grievances? This thought flashed through the minds of the ministers simultaneously.

Faced with this sudden scene, Mu Lige and Hua Qingcheng, the Third Princes, were equally astonished. Justice is clear, and retribution is inevitable. Could it be that the heavens couldn't stand it anymore and were using Su Mulihan to clear the grievances of Su Mutiansheng and Gongsun Muxue?

At this moment when the ministers were in turmoil, a figure appeared behind Su Mulihan like a ghost. The person acted extremely quickly, snatching the dagger from Su Mulihan's hand in the blink of an eye and restraining him.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a little confused today. Please forgive him." The man knelt on one knee and said respectfully.

Su Mutianjun took a closer look and found that this person was Lin Yu, the commander of the imperial guards. He frowned and waved his hand to signal Lin Yu to leave.

At this moment, Imperial Preceptor Ran Qiyue rose from his seat and declared loudly, "Your Majesty, in my opinion, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been possessed by an evil spirit! I suspect someone with ulterior motives has used a spell to suppress His Royal Highness's victory. I'm afraid the person behind this, besides wanting to slander Your Majesty and humiliate him, may have other ulterior motives. They deserve death!"

Ran Qiyue turned the situation around in just a few words, saving Su Mutianjun's face. At the same time, she also indirectly pointed out that the reason why Prince Su Mulihan was mentally ill was that he was controlled by someone with ulterior motives, and his words were not credible.

Ran Qiyue's powerful voice echoed in the palace, and everyone's faces changed color after hearing it, as if they were afraid that they would be classified as "the one with ulterior motives" in the next moment.

Su Mutianjun's expression grew increasingly gloomy, as if water could drip from it. His eyes flashed with anger as he glanced coldly around.

"The Imperial Master is right. I also think this matter is of great importance. We must investigate it thoroughly and find out who is behind it." Su Mutianjun's voice was so cold that it made people shudder.

Everyone in the hall was silent, no one dared to speak. The entire palace was suddenly plunged into a tense atmosphere, and everyone held their breath in anticipation.

After a moment, Su Mutianjun spoke again coldly: "Forget it, let's just remember what happened today. If you do it again in the future, I will not let you off easily!"

Lin Yu took the order and left, taking away Su Mulihan, who had become stupid again.

Hua Qingcheng and Mu Lige looked at Su Mulihan being taken away, feeling confused and as if they were shrouded in a fog.

Hua Qingcheng and Mu Lige exchanged a glance, each seeing the doubt in the other's eyes. They decided to secretly investigate the matter and find out the true reason behind the "apparition of the former Crown Prince"...

At the same time, Su Mutianjun was also pondering the words of the Imperial Preceptor Ran Qiyue. He signaled to the Chief Eunuch Qu Chengde to send someone to search the palace for any suspicious persons or items.

The turmoil seemed to have subsided, but the struggle behind the scenes had only just begun. The fact that the Crown Prince had gone mad at such a late hour, and had chosen to do so at the palace banquet he was hosting to welcome Su Mulichen and Nalan Qingcheng, was truly bizarre, and it made Su Mutianjun inexplicably uneasy.

If he hadn't known that these two people had no connection with the Crown Prince, he would have almost thought that this was the work of the Princess of Laifeng Country...
