Was the Crown Prince's idiocy all an act? Was he deliberately creating this image to mislead outsiders?
That's right. His Majesty is a man of exceptional talent. How could such a person have a foolish son? And how could he insist on passing the throne to his son knowing he was stupid?
They, father and son, must be playing a long game!
They deliberately used the crown prince's stupidity to lure out some disloyal people, and then wiped them out in one fell swoop.
I'm doomed. I haven't shown much respect to the Crown Prince all these years, often treating him like a fool and playing with him. He must remember it. I'm doomed...
Zuan was unaware of all the speculation Shi Kun had made up; in fact, only he knew the truth.
This prince isn't hiding his talents and biding his time at all; he's just a complete idiot, with an IQ probably only that of a young child.
That's why he was able to briefly control the Crown Prince's mind with the Spirit Jade Cong!

He found that he could barely control the other party, and he was overjoyed. That's why he was so confident in making the bet with Shi Kun.
In that instant, Zuan used the jade cong to control the Crown Prince. In a sense, it wasn't the Crown Prince who shot the flying knife, but Zuan himself.
With Zuan's current cultivation level, controlling the landing point of the throwing knife at such close range is not difficult.
Of course, this control can only last for a very short time, but that's enough!
Zu An secretly rejoiced, then left the wall, took down the throwing knives stuck in it, and handed them back to the Crown Prince. Only then did he look at Shi Kun, who was slumped over to the side, and smiled very happily: "Young Master Shi, now it's your turn."
