Chapter 697 Selling Old Prince Fu



The two left the Joseon royal palace one after the other. No one spoke from beginning to end, and everyone went about their own business.

Zhang Yu sent someone to pick up Prince Fu and bring him to the Joseon palace. As for meeting Prince Fu, it was impossible for Zhang Yu to go.

Firstly, the situation was urgent, and secondly, he didn't know what to say when he saw Prince Fu. Moreover, Prince Fu's spies were all female, and at this point, there was absolutely no room for error.

After returning to the Ming Embassy, ​​Zhang Yu met Song Xiang.

"You're back." When Song Xiang saw Zhang Yu, a look of joy immediately appeared on her face.

She really didn't expect it.

I originally thought that Zhang Yu would never come back, and that the King of Joseon would keep him. But I didn't expect him to come back so soon, which is really good news.

Zhang Yu nodded and said, "I sent Prince Fu to the palace, so I came back."

When Song Xiang thought of Prince Fu who was kept in the dark, she immediately smiled and couldn't help laughing louder and louder.

She laughed and looked at Zhang Yu for a long time without saying anything.

Zhang Yu looked helpless and said solemnly, "Stop laughing."

"At this point, we have no way out. Are our people ready? We must not make any mistakes at this time."

"It's ready." Song Xiang nodded and said, "We're just waiting for you to come back to set it up."

"That's great." Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Zheng Xuhong will send someone to ask Prince Fenglin to come into the palace. Has everything been arranged with Lin Dechang?"

"It's been arranged." Song Xiang nodded.

"Then let Lin Dechang go and persuade Lord Fenglin. If Lord Fenglin follows our arrangements, that would be great. If he doesn't, then we'll kill Zheng Xuhong."

"Everyone who went with Zheng Xuhong will be killed. No, at least a few will be killed. Bring them to Prince Fenglin and let him know that the King of Joseon is going to take action against him. Force him to rebel."

"I understand." Song Xiang said, "Zheng Xuhong isn't staying either?"

"We can't keep this person here. When Zheng Xuhong goes to see Prince Fenglin, have Lin Dechang drum up support and say that Zheng Xuhong still supports the King of Joseon. Let them take action directly. If taking action doesn't work, we can do it from behind."

"I understand." Song Xiang nodded.

At the same time, in Lord Fenglin’s garden.

The atmosphere is very serious.

"Are you telling the truth?" Lord Fenglin stared at Lin Dechang and asked directly.

"Your Excellency, this is of course true. I..." Lin Dechang said with a sad face, "I never imagined that Zheng Xuhong would betray Your Excellency at this time. Not only did he betray Your Excellency, he also threw all the dirty water on Your Excellency."

"Zheng Xuhong said that the prince colluded with illegal merchants from the Ming Dynasty and left the crown prince in Ming Dynasty; he said that the prince killed Park Jung-yang and Jang Bok in order to seize the throne of the king.

"Zheng Xuhong also said that the Grand Prince sent someone to bribe him, promising that as long as he supported the Grand Prince, the Grand Prince would be able to take care of all his problems and also persuade the Ming people. And the Grand Prince had gone to the palace at the time, so he could use his power."

"I don't know how Zheng Xuhong bewitched the King, but he just sent someone to get me. If I fall into Zheng Xuhong's hands, it will be solid evidence of the King's collusion with the Ming people. Even Kim Jong-min's case will probably be framed on the King."

"In my opinion, Kim Jong-min was most likely killed by Jung Xuhong. After all, this incident was all driven by Kim Jong-min. If Kim Jong-min were alive, Jung Xuhong might die. Jang Bok is his precedent. That's why Jung Xuhong took the risk and did this. As long as he can put all the blame on the prince, he will be fine."

Lord Fenglin's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot, and he angrily said, "How dare he? How dare he do this?"

Zhao Chenqi stood aside with an ugly look on his face.

Ever since Kim Jong-min's death, Zhao Chenqi had felt that something was amiss, as if someone was actively trying to exacerbate the conflict. Now, after hearing what Lin Dechang had said, it seemed likely that this person was Zheng Xuhong. If he could make things worse, he would have room to maneuver.

"We can't be careless at this time." Zhao Chenqi took a step forward and said, "If we're not careful, we'll be doomed."

As he spoke, Zhao Chenqi glanced at Lin Dechang, but this glance was subtle, avoiding Lin Dechang's gaze.

Lord Fenglin understood instantly.

Zhao Chenqi was telling himself that if things couldn't be done, he had to silence Lin Dechang, after all, he knew too much.

Although Lin Dechang didn't see the two of them flirting, he knew his own situation. Putting hope on the moral standards of these two people was simply impossible.

If the situation became critical, these two people would probably throw themselves out to save their lives. But at this moment, how could they possibly let them throw themselves out?

Neither of them spoke, and Lin Dechang had a bad feeling.

Lin Dechang took a step forward and said, "I also found another piece of information about the Ming Dynasty. The king has already met with the Ming Dynasty envoy and inquired about the Crown Prince."

"What Lord Zhang said is indeed true. Someone is operating in the Ming Dynasty and has spent a large sum of money to keep the Crown Prince in the Ming Dynasty. Zheng Xuhong has already informed the King of this matter. The most likely person is the King. The Ming Dynasty's envoys have also made their position clear. They will defend justice and support the King."

Lord Fenglin's expression instantly became even uglier.

This was very bad news. If this were really the case, it would be very troublesome, and all his plans would be in vain. Furthermore, getting rid of Lin Dechang wouldn't be that easy.
