Ling Ya was also dumbfounded and speechless. After he came to his senses, he personally took his sword and stabbed at Yu Buyan.

Yu Buyan and Huaifu were already injured and had to tell the truth under immense pressure. They were now panting heavily and had no ability to protect themselves.

However, at this critical moment, Yun Zhuo personally stepped forward to deal with Ling Ya, protecting Yu Buyan and Huai Fu behind him.

Zhuang Xin and Zhan Shuang quickly stepped in to help, and before long, Yu Buyan and Huai Fu had joined Yun Zhuo's group.

They were seriously injured and could barely stand, so they were supported by guards.

Yun Zhuo, holding a long sword, sneered, "Didn't Prince Xuan keep saying that Eunuch Yu and Eunuch Huaifu would testify for you?"

Yun Xun's expression twisted for a moment, his mind buzzing.

Once he had caught his breath, Eunuch Huaifu suddenly spoke up: "What Eunuch Yu said is true. The Emperor was killed by His Highness Prince Xuan himself. Before he murdered his father and the Emperor, he tricked the Emperor into writing an edict of succession by threatening to become the Retired Emperor. Eunuch Yu and I witnessed all of this with our own eyes!"

"Afterwards, he even threatened me to give false testimony to frame His Highness the Crown Prince! In reality, the real villain is Prince Xuan himself!"

Not long ago, even Eunuch Huaifu did not expect that things would take such a turn, that the Crown Prince would be able to bring his men to kill him, and he did not even think that he could survive.

Now that everything is hopeful, he was more excited than anyone else when he said those words!

Even if he was seriously injured and bleeding profusely, he wanted everyone to know the truth!

Yun Xun's gaze fell on him and Yu Buyan, his eyes filled with a hatred that wished they could materialize and tear them to pieces.

He really had no defenses against Yu Buyan. He was just a eunuch. If he gave him some benefits, Yu Buyan should be loyal to him to the death... But now, this eunuch had stabbed him in the back!

Filled with hatred and anger, Yun Xun suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said, "Crown Prince! Yu Buyan is your man? He has already been bought off by you, hasn't he!"

Upon hearing this, Yun Xun didn't feel pleased; instead, he felt a belated sense of fear.

After his father publicly declared Yun Zhaolin to be an idiot, he began to urge him to kill Yun Zhuo, so that the position of crown prince would be his.

But then, Yu Buyan sent him a message, telling him that even though Yun Zhuo was dead, his father did not want to make him the crown prince. His father had his eye on the tenth prince!

Because of Yu Buyan's words, he and Ji Mingwei began to discuss how to kill their father and frame Yun Zhuo.

But what if Yu Buyan is one of Yun Zhuo's people?

So, the person who wanted him to kill his father was actually Yun Zhuo.

Yun Xun remembered that three years ago, on the way back to the capital city with his father, he was only chased once, and the group of people only chased him halfway, without any intention of killing him.

He believed it was because his father's guards were capable and had returned to the capital in several groups that they had prevented Yun Zhuo from becoming the real assassin.

So it turns out... Yun Zhuo deliberately let him return to the capital safely so that he would kill his father!

He didn't become the knife his father used to kill Yun Zhuo, but instead became the knife Yun Zhuo used to kill his father!

No wonder! No wonder!!

Yun Xun's eyes turned bloodshot in an instant. He said, "My lords, please open your eyes and see! Yu Buyan is already the Crown Prince's man! Everything he says is biased towards the Crown Prince. He is lying. He is colluding with Eunuch Huaifu to slander me!!"

He pointed his sword at Yu Buyan and Huaifu, saying, "You served my father for many years, and now that my father has died tragically, you are giving false testimony! Do you have any respect for the years of loyalty you have shown to my father?!"

Lingya echoed angrily, "If Yu Buyan and Huaifu were not the Crown Prince's men and did not obey the Crown Prince's orders to give false testimony, why did they risk their lives to go to the Crown Prince's side just now?"

"Why is the Crown Prince so desperate to protect them? Isn't it because they can provide false testimony for him? Everyone, please don't be deceived by them, lest the Emperor rest in peace!"

The ministers looked at each other in bewilderment, unsure of whom to believe.

Taking advantage of the situation, Ling Ya said, "Testimony can be fabricated, and the Crown Prince can win people's hearts... but the edict of succession in Prince Xuan's possession is genuine! Everyone should stand by Prince Xuan's side, arrest the Crown Prince, and avenge the Emperor!!"

Ling Ya's words were powerful, inspiring, and exciting!

In short, many people have been swayed by their master and servant and have begun to look at Yun Zhuo with suspicion.

Those who were originally part of Prince Xuan's faction were now torn between two conflicting ideas: Should they side with Prince Xuan now? He has a decree of succession; if they act quickly, they will have rendered meritorious service in supporting the new emperor...

Many people are eager to try it.

But at that moment, someone rushed over from the side, covered in dust. When everyone looked over, they saw it was Zhang Xubai, the current prime minister, whose clothes, hair and face were covered in dust.

Four guards escorted him as he ran.

As if an assassin was chasing him, he ran frantically toward Yun Zhuo, almost running himself out of breath.

Yun Xun's eyes narrowed slightly. He had recently received news that Prime Minister Zhang Xubai had entered the palace ahead of schedule to accompany the Emperor.

However, after entering the palace, he never saw Zhang Xubai. When he sent the deputy commander to catch the escaped fish, Zhang Xubai was the one he was thinking of!

As a result, Zhang Xubai has now escaped.

So where was Zhang Xubai hiding when he killed his father? Did Zhang Xubai see him kill his father?

Yu Buyan is Yun Zhuo's man. Could it be that he hasn't been able to find Zhang Xubai because Yu Buyan hid Zhang Xubai?

Thinking of this, Yun Xun felt a chill and secretly gave the archer a hand signal. In the dark, an arrow was shot towards Zhang Xubai, who was running.
