East Palace.

In the main hall.

Facing Zhu Biao's sudden rage, Mao Xiang, who was kneeling on the ground, was trembling all over, with cold sweat streaming down his face.

"Your Highness, please calm down...Wei Chen is wronged. Everything was ordered by Han Jiang. Wei Chen was just following orders..."

"Please ask His Majesty the Crown Prince for a clear warning!"

Mao Xiang wiped the cold sweat from the corner of his eyes and said tremblingly.

"Xiao Qi, bring the school inspection commander to see me immediately! If there is resistance, he will be killed on the spot!"

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Biao snorted coldly, turned around and shouted sharply at Xiao Qi.

"yes!"

Xiao Qi respectfully agreed and immediately turned around and walked out.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince! Wait a moment!"

But at this moment, Hu Fei suddenly spoke and stopped Xiao Qi.

"What do you want to say!?"

Zhu Biao turned to look at Hu Fei and asked in a deep voice.

The furious Zhu Biao seemed to have disowned all his relatives.

"Your Highness, it is okay to arrest Han Jiang and come for questioning, but it is not advisable to start a big fight, otherwise if there is too much noise, it may alarm the Yangxin Palace."

"I hope His Highness the Crown Prince will think twice."

Hu Fei bowed his hands and said seriously.

After listening to Hu Fei's words, Zhu Biao frowned and looked solemn.

Although he was completely angry, Hu Fei's words were not unreasonable. After all, it was about school inspection. If it was not handled properly, it would inevitably lead to anger.

"Then what do you think we should do?"

Zhu Biao looked at Hu Fei and asked in a deep voice.

He knew that since Hu Fei came to stop it, he must have thought of a solution.

"It's very simple. If what Mao Xiang said is true, as long as Commander Xiao finds Han Jiang and directly states that Mao Xiang is in the East Palace at this time, Han Jiang will definitely come."

Hu Fei cupped his hands and said slowly.

After hearing Hu Fei's answer, Zhu Biao hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Xiao Qi again.

"Did you hear that? Go and do it quickly!"

Zhu Biao looked at Xiao Qi and said in a deep voice.

Xiao Qi agreed and left quickly.

As Xiao Qi left, the hall became temporarily quiet, but Mao Xiang was still kneeling on the ground, constantly wiping his cold sweat.

Hu Fei frowned slightly as he looked at Zhu Biao pacing back and forth in the hall.

This was the first time he had seen Zhu Biao get so angry. It seemed that even Zhu Biao, who had always been gentle and elegant, would get angry sometimes when it came to important court matters.

Therefore, Hu Fei couldn't help but think, hoping that Han Jiang would be able to withstand Zhu Biao's anger later and not spill the beans.

In this way, as time passed little by little, none of the three people spoke anymore, silently waiting for Han Jiang's arrival.

After a long time, when Zhu Biao was getting more and more impatient with waiting and even suspected that Han Jiang refused to come to see him, footsteps sounded at the right time, and Xiao Qi and one person were seen walking quickly into the hall.

It is none other than the school inspection commander, Han Jiang.

"Han Jiang, a humble minister, comes to see His Highness the Crown Prince!"

Han Jiang walked closer, glanced at Mao Xiang who was kneeling on the ground, and bowed respectfully to Zhu Biao.

"Han Jiang, do you know your guilt?!"

Zhu Biao didn't say a word, pointed directly at Han Jiang and asked sternly.

"Returning to Your Majesty the Crown Prince, this humble minister is so stupid that he doesn't know what crime he has committed?"

Han Jiang was stunned for a moment, looked at Zhu Biao blankly, and asked in confusion.

"You still want to cover it up now?! You are so stubborn!"

"Mao Xiang, say what you just said to his face again!"

Zhu Biao snorted and said coldly.

"Commander Han, now that the matter is over, please stop pretending to be confused!"

"The matter has been exposed and we can no longer hide it! If you confess now, maybe His Highness the Crown Prince will be able to tolerate it!"

Mao Xiang looked at Han Jiang and said earnestly.

"What are you talking about? I don't understand!"

Han Jiang looked at Mao Xiang in confusion and said doubtfully.

"Okay, since you refuse to say it, let me remind you."

"In order to protect the inspection school, you ordered me to secretly bribe Yun Qi, the envoy of Xihua Gate, to intercept His Majesty at Xihua Gate on the Lantern Festival, and report to Your Majesty that Prime Minister Hu had set an ambush in the old house.

The intention was to kill the king and usurp the throne, to make His Majesty angry, and to take the opportunity to get rid of Hu Weiyong and destroy the Hu family!"

"Now that everything has been revealed, Yun Qi has confessed to me. His Highness the Crown Prince has clearly understood everything! You and I should take the initiative to admit our mistakes and stop being stubborn!"

Mao Xiang looked at Han Jiang and said loudly.

"What?!"

"It's full of nonsense!"

When Han Jiang heard this, his face was full of surprise. He looked at Zhu Biao in disbelief and bowed respectfully.

"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince, this matter is unknown to me. It was completely framed by Mao Xiang in order to protect himself!"

"Wei Chen doesn't even know who Yunqi is! Your Highness, please take a closer look!"

"Wei Chen has something that is unclear, and he plans to report it to His Majesty after the investigation is clear. Since the matter has reached this point, there is no need for Wei Chen to hide it."

"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince, Wei Chen has recently noticed that Mao Xiang was acting sneaky and became suspicious, so he ordered people to conduct a secret investigation and arrested three of Mao Xiang's men. The three of them also confessed that Mao Xiang had deliberately harmed Hu Xiang. Originally, Wei Chen

No real evidence has been found yet, but now it seems that this matter is indeed true!"

Han Jiang raised his hands and said loudly to Zhu Biao respectfully, with a look of sudden realization on his face.

After listening to Han Jiang's words, Zhu Biao couldn't help but frown, with a trace of doubt between his brows.

Mao Xiang, who was kneeling on the ground, was already stunned and looked at Han Jiang in disbelief.

"Where are those three people?"

Zhu Biao hesitated for a moment, looked at Han Jiang and asked in a deep voice.

"They will be detained in the school health center. If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not believe them, you can send someone to bring them here for questioning now."

Han Jiang said loudly.

"Xiao Qi! Go to the school health center immediately and bring those three people to the East Palace!"

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Biao looked at Xiao Qi again and said sternly.

Xiao Qi agreed and immediately turned around and left.

Han Jiang hurriedly stepped forward and handed his command token to Xiao Qi, asking Xiao Qi to take the token to get the person.

"Han Jiang! You are so slanderous! You were the one who secretly instigated me, so why do you put all the blame on me?"

"Your Highness, Han Jiang is clearly trying to bite back. Please make the decision for me, your Highness!"

Mao Xiang's face turned red and she questioned Han Jiang loudly, then turned to Zhu Biao and begged.

Zhu Biao said nothing, looking solemnly at the two people who were identifying each other, his brows furrowed.

Han Jiang, on the other hand, stopped entangled with Mao Xiang and stood respectfully, bowing with an awe-inspiring look on his face.

Hu Fei looked at what was happening in front of him. Although there was no expression on his face, his heart was already full of sneers.

Dog-eat-dog scenes are not something you can see all the time.

After a long time, Xiao Qi led three of Mao Xiang's men to the East Palace and walked into the main hall.

Seeing Zhu Biao, the three men knelt on the ground directly, confessed their guilt, insisted that they had secretly participated in Mao Xiang's deliberate murder of Hu Weiyong, and cried out for Zhu Biao's forgiveness.

Seeing this scene, Mao Xiang was completely desperate and subconsciously glanced at Hu Fei, who had been standing aside and had nothing to do with him.

"Mao Xiang! You are so brave!"

"Conspirate to kill Prime Minister Hu, deceive your father, slander your superiors, and be punished for several crimes. How many heads do you have!?"

After Zhu Biao listened to the confessions of the three people, he glared at Mao Xiang who was kneeling on the ground and asked angrily.

"Your Highness, I am wronged!"
