What King Wu said was absolutely true.
That day, when Madman Yan Ruoshu said in public that he would rebel, he was so frightened that his heart nearly jumped out of his throat.
Originally, the reason why he didn't want to resign was not because he wanted to gain military power, but because he really liked the free and unrestrained life in the North.
But he made a bet with Jin Yue on whether King Jinyang would abandon Yan Ruoshu's bet, and he lost. As a dignified man, he didn't want to be looked down upon.
Who would have known that by such a coincidence, he would almost be killed by a lunatic named Yan Ruoshu that night.
If he hadn't come up with a letter of resignation, the emperor's father would definitely doubt him. Because being unjustly accused of poisoning the prince had already made the emperor's father suspicious, so he couldn't make any more mistakes.
Therefore, listening to Jin Yue's words and handing over the resignation letter was equivalent to saving his own life.
Seeing that the atmosphere was getting awkward, Su Ling quickly changed the topic.
"Princess Chu, I heard that your father returned to the Hou Mansion today. Is this true?"
The corners of Jin Yue's lips raised and she said, "Didn't King Wu see him in the palace? If he hadn't begged for mercy, how could Jin Ci have been pardoned?"
King Wu was about to nod, but he saw something wrong with Jin Yue's expression.
He immediately asked: "Why are you not in a hurry to go back when your father is back? I heard that King Jinyang has hurried to Weiwuhou Mansion to see what's going on."
Jin Yue was still the same as usual, without any mood swings, and said: "I went to your invitation today. Is it wrong?"
Su Ling slapped his forehead and said, "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have invited you here today."
Jin Yue poured herself a cup of tea and said calmly: "Today is good. The wind and sunshine are beautiful, it's a good time to appreciate the scenery."
King Wu and Su Ling looked at each other, and then looked at Jin Yue in unison.
Su Ling said: "There must be something going on, let's talk about it."
The corner of Jin Yue's mouth raised a hint of irony and asked: "Do you think that is really my father?"
"Isn't it?"
Jin Yue added: "When my father died, there were no bones left."
"That's what they said, it was the wild beasts in the mountains that killed him..."
Su Ling couldn't bear to say the rest. Looking at Jin Yue's behavior, she didn't seem to think that the current Uncle Jin of the Weiwu Hou Mansion was her father.
"So, if you are interested, you can make a fuss about it. Since there are no bones left, it is possible that the person is still alive."
King Wu and Su Ling were confused after hearing this. They didn't understand what Jin Yue meant.
King Wu was more direct and simply asked: "Are you saying that Uncle Jin who is back now is a fake?"
"I don't know either."
The corners of their mouths twitched. You don't even know what's true or false, how can you still be so calm?
Jin Yue added: "What I am sure of is that the person who is coming back now is an enemy rather than a friend."
"Huh?" Both of them were confused at the same time.
"Jin Yue, do you know what you said?" King Wu asked without thinking.
Jin Yue said: "Do you know the puppet man?"
Su Ling shook his head. He had never heard of a puppet, so he didn't understand it at all.
King Wu looked shocked, it was obvious that he knew.
He said: "The so-called puppets are actually the evil means of the Dark God organization. They will erase the mind of the person they use, destroy their soul, and then inject the soul of the god into it, thus becoming a puppet that can be controlled at will."
Su Ling was completely dumbfounded and said: "Stop talking nonsense, how can the soul be destroyed? You call me out and let me see where the soul is."
King Wu and Jin Yue both looked at Su Ling speechlessly, as if they were looking at a fool.
Su Ling was irritated by the shocked looks in their eyes. He said anxiously: "Tell me quickly, what is this?"
Jin Yue then said: "Let a person firmly believe that he is dead, but the person who is alive now is not him, but a worshiper of the Dark God. He only lives for the Dark God and obeys all the instructions and arrangements of the Dark God. Only then can he live in the underworld." Ruth was guided to heaven by the calming spirit.”
Su Ling's mouth twitched: "Isn't this a divine religion? This is simply nonsense."
Jin Yue nodded: "Don't forget, the destruction of Xiao Qin was due to the divine religion."
These words made Su Ling's scalp numb. How long had it been before the Little Qin Kingdom was destroyed?
At this time, several people in the boat were lost in thought, only the singer was still playing and singing for the distinguished guests.
On the way back to the palace, Lin Hui said: "The prince has been waiting for you at the palace for a long time."
Jin Yue was slightly surprised: "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"The prince told me not to disturb the princess's mood. It's not easy for you to have a rest for a day."
Jin Yue: "..."
What kind of interest does she have? It was just to avoid the invitation from the Weiwu Hou Mansion!
It was rare for the King of Chu to be at home for a day, so he received a message from the palace early in the morning.
It was said that Concubine Qin wanted to see him and hoped that her son could go to the palace to see her, a concubine under house arrest.
Concubine Qin felt that her son was filial and could not not go. Unexpectedly, she waited from morning until dusk and did not wait for King Chu.
At this moment, King Chu was having barbecue with Jin Yue in the courtyard of the palace.
This was the first time that Butler Chu saw his prince being so arrogant, and he was so happy that he quickly helped him personally.
At this moment, a person suddenly appeared and broke the harmonious atmosphere.
"Cousin, how can you be so cruel?"
In the pavilion in the back garden of the palace, the smell of barbecue was filled everywhere.
The appearance of Princess Qin suddenly interrupted everyone's laughter.
Everyone looked at Princess Qin, but this was King Chu's business and no one dared to interfere.
The King of Chu did not look at Princess Qin, but looked at the housekeeper: "Why can he enter the palace without being informed?"
Chu Guanjia looked at the prince's expression and said quickly: "Young man, let's deal with it right now."
Princess Qin pointed at King Chu angrily and said, "Cousin, how could you do this to me? Did this bitch Jin Yue instigate you?"
Jin Yue put down her chopsticks in displeasure, and King Wu quickly handed her the meat skewers in his hand and said, "When you eat meat skewers in the North, you don't even need chopsticks. You just eat it like this. Try it."
Su Ling also said quickly: "This is the first time I know that this meat can be grilled and eaten like this. If King Wu hadn't come back, we might never have had this tasteless taste."
"One sip of wine and one sip of barbecue. I wouldn't change this delicious food for anyone!"
After Jin Yu came out of the Imperial College, he was taken to the Prince of Chu's Mansion. He had a lot of questions to ask.
When he came, he saw Mr. Su Xiaogong, King Wu, and his brother-in-law King Chu. There were four nobles in the imperial city. He didn't dare to say anything.
Now looking at this opportunity, he quickly stood up and said: "Sister, I'll go back first!"
"Sit down and don't move." Jin Yue scolded, and Jin Yu immediately became as honest as a quail.
Su Ling put her arm around Jin Yu's shoulders and said with a smile: "Brother, I haven't seen you for a few days. You have to have a drink with me."
"Take him out, Palm Mouth."
Jin Yue's anger was completely eliminated at the moment King Chu gave the order.
Qin Xueying looked at King Chu in disbelief and asked unwillingly: "Cousin, how could you do this to me? I am your biological cousin!"
