"Yes, His Majesty first banished Cui Youan to Ganzhou, exiled the Zou family to Lingnan, and later exiled Prince Hui to Yongzhou. We always thought that His Majesty was testing Prince Hui, or wanted to use this as an excuse to kill Prince Hui and the forces behind him. Who would have thought that it would end like this," Chen Qingxuan also shook his head and took a sip of tea while saying, "It's true that Cui Youan's death was strange, and I don't know if it was His Majesty's doing."
Ten days ago, Zhong Mingwei and his group received secret reports from the south, in which they learned about a series of events in Yongzhou and Ganzhou. After hearing the secret reports, everyone was speechless.
"Your Majesty arranged Prince Hui, Cui Youan and the Zou family to be so close, naturally there was a test in mind. Looking at the current outcome, Your Majesty must be very satisfied with Prince Hui's reaction, so Cui Youan died unclearly, while Prince Hui is in high spirits." After pondering for a while, Zhong Mingwei said slowly.
Kong Wenmin was startled, then frowned and said, "Master, do you mean the one who attacked Cui Youan is... the Prince of Hui?"
"I'm afraid that's right," Zhong Mingwei didn't say anything, but Chen Qingxuan nodded, "Prince Hui has always been a smart man, so he naturally guessed what His Majesty meant. In order to gain His Majesty's trust, it's not impossible for him to attack his own grandfather."
"But..." Kong Wenmin was shocked and took a deep breath, "But that must be his grandfather!"
"It's my grandfather, but he is also a piece of rotten flesh on his body. As long as this piece of rotten flesh is not removed, His Majesty will be worried about him, and will even despise him or even kill him. So Prince Hui has no other choice but to cut out this piece of rotten flesh himself to avoid harm to the whole body," Chen Qingxuan said slowly. He paused and then sighed, "It can be seen that although Prince Hui looks sick, he is also a ruthless man."
"I don't think so," Zhong Mingwei, who had been silent all this time, spoke up at this moment, "If the Prince of Hui County was really a ruthless person, he would have strangled Cui Youan and the Zou family to death in order to protect himself. But now, although Cui Youan has lost his life, the Zou family is still staying in Lingnan. It shows that someone else attacked Cui Youan."
"If my speculation is true, then the person who did it must be..." Chen Qingxuan was stunned, and then he uttered three words with a puzzled look on his face, "Your Highness?"
Kong Wenmin felt more and more confused: "Your Majesty intended to test the attitude of Prince Hui, but he did not let Prince Hui take action, but instead sent people to take action against Cui Youan. Your Majesty, I really can't figure out what this is all about."
"I think it should be Cui Youan who was dishonest. After hearing that Prince Hui's fiefdom was Yongzhou, he began to plan to assist Prince Hui in his comeback. Later, as soon as Prince Hui arrived in Yongzhou, Cui Youan sent people to contact him. Prince Hui was shocked and quickly distanced himself from him. His Majesty was very satisfied with Prince Hui's attitude, so he was later rewarded with military power in Huguang." At this point, Zhong Mingwei paused, as if he couldn't figure out something. He frowned for a long time before continuing, "But if that's the case, then it doesn't make sense. How could His Majesty let the Zou family go?"
Chen Qingxuan said: "That means the Zou family has no ulterior motives and has not joined hands with Cui Youan. That's why His Majesty let them go and let them live in peace in Lingnan."
"If that's true, then Zou Shijie is a man who can see clearly." Zhong Mingwei nodded.
