The stolen magic is a bit magical

Master Ding of Xin Pavilion exclaimed, "Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

His long, drawn-out cry sounded like weeping.

The elders of Xin Ge felt a great weight lifted off their shoulders.

Because when they faced the most extreme pressure, their strongest support finally arrived.

The Crown Prince himself has arrived!

The Crown Prince's Eastern Palace Seal was revealed, and a golden bridge was built, leading directly from the Eastern Palace to the Western Hills.

As soon as the Golden Bridge arrived, the imperial aura vied to submit to it, and the entire world became the Crown Prince's domain.

On the other side of the Golden Bridge, more than ten people arrived side by side.

The one at the very front was none other than Crown Prince Hong Ding, dressed in a deep yellow prince's robe.

Behind him were ten officials from the Eastern Palace and two high-ranking guards.

As the Golden Bridge contracted, the prince and his entourage reached the Western Hills.

The golden bridge retracted, transforming into a giant golden seal that hung behind the crown prince's head. The crown prince stood on the edge of the cliff, staring at Huo Gang.

"What brings the Grand Commander to West Mountain in person?" the Crown Prince asked calmly.

This was probably the most disrespectful thing the crown prince had ever done to his father's most trusted minister.

Ordinary princes wouldn't dare to do this, but he did because his position was as secure as Mount Tai; he would be emperor sooner or later.

If this president knows what's good for him, he could actually pledge allegiance to him now.

However, the Grand Commander showed him no courtesy whatsoever: "I am acting on His Majesty's orders to escort Inspector Li to inspect the Heart Pavilion. I beg the Crown Prince not to interfere with the inspection."

"Inspector General?" The Crown Prince raised his eyes and looked at Lin Xiaosu's face: "Li Chengnian has actually become an inspector general? I had no idea."

All eyes were on Lin Xiaosu's face. Lin Xiaosu said calmly, "It's normal that the Crown Prince doesn't know, His Majesty just made the appointment!"

The Crown Prince coldly replied, "As an inspector, you should conduct your inspections properly, live up to the Emperor's grace, and refrain from maliciously disturbing martial arts sects or stirring up trouble for no reason!"

"Your Highness, please understand!" Elder Ding said, "This inspector was originally a steward of my Heart Pavilion. Because he was dissatisfied with the Heart Pavilion's control over him, he maliciously instigated His Majesty, attempting to use imperial power to oppress his former compatriots. In the country, this is an abuse of imperial power; in the martial world, it is a petty person gaining power. I hope Your Highness will restrain him to prevent the law and imperial power from being ruined because of one person."

"What the Pavilion Master says is absolutely right!" an elder echoed. "How can such a treacherous and morally corrupt person be allowed to serve as an official?"

"Indeed, if everyone in the world harbors a desire for revenge and uses imperial power to vent personal grievances, where is the imperial power and the law?"

"Please, Your Highness, make the decision for my Heart Pavilion..."

Suddenly, the crowd was excited.

Huo Gang frowned secretly; things were getting complicated.

If he obtained enough evidence of the Crown Prince's crimes at this time, he would not panic, because he had already discerned His Majesty's intentions: His Majesty must remove the Crown Prince.

All we need is overwhelming evidence.

However, the irrefutable evidence has not yet been obtained.

The interrogation could not proceed.

Because the Eastern Palace Seal can restrain all kinds of magic.

It can even counter its own demonic magic, let alone a secondary divine magic.

Without the Lesser God's Soul Suppression Technique, who among these people would dare to utter any words detrimental to the Crown Prince?
In conclusion, the interrogation was only halfway through and had to be hastily concluded.

There is no conclusive evidence, and no reason to remove the crown prince.

With the Crown Prince in his hands, he has influence over both the martial arts world and the imperial court.

Not to mention Lin Xiaosu, a nobody official, even he himself might not be able to escape unscathed.

Lin Xiaosu slowly raised her eyes: "Your Highness, by using the Eastern Palace Seal to harass my interrogation, do you think that in doing so, I will be unable to obtain irrefutable evidence of your collusion with sects outside the realm and your harm to the Great Wilderness court?"

The crown prince's face suddenly turned ashen!

Everyone in the audience was shocked...

Even the Seventh Prince was shocked.

When the Crown Prince arrived, he felt uneasy. The Crown Prince was too powerful and had long exerted too much pressure on him.

With these words, Lin Xiaosu declared that he and the Crown Prince could not coexist in the world.

Because he testified to the Crown Prince that he was colluding with sects outside the region and causing harm to the Great Wilderness court.

This accusation is as heavy as Mount Tai!
The Crown Prince will not let him go no matter what!

Today's situation is bound to end in a lose-lose situation!
"How dare you defy the Crown Prince!" Behind the Crown Prince, two officials stepped forward, their imposing manner overwhelming.

"You're the ones who are being insolent!" Lin Xiaosu stepped forward, pointing a finger directly at the Crown Prince's ashen face: "His Majesty has strictly ordered that no one is allowed to obstruct the inspection. Please remember, Your Highness, no one is allowed to do so!"

The Crown Prince took a deep breath and slowly exhaled: "Lord Li, what an imposing official's presence!"

"Sorry! My official authority is not strong enough to suppress all sorts of monsters and demons!" Lin Xiaosu said coldly. "Commander! I wish to enter the Heart Pavilion's library to look up information. If anyone dares to obstruct me, the Commander should know how to deal with them!"

"His Majesty has given a prior order: anyone who obstructs this order will be killed without mercy!" the Grand Commander declared.

The Grand Commander raised the great flag in his hand!
The murderous aura was almost tangible.

It points directly to the highest point of the Heart Pavilion.

The flying boat sped off!

It leads directly to the top of the pavilion.

Lin Xiaosu moved swiftly, leading a hundred imperial guards into the pavilion.

As they climbed the steps, no one dared to stop them.

All eyes turned to the Crown Prince, whose face was ashen, but he remained calm.

The Crown Prince knew very well that it was absolutely impossible to find evidence of his crimes in the library.

I can't forcefully stop you right now, but once you can't find any evidence of your guilt, then you can try to see who's in charge of this place.

Li Chengnian, I, the Crown Prince, truly underestimated you. You've endured so many years, always so cautious and timid, your family has been begging to serve me like dogs. From this day forward, if I don't thoroughly purge your entire family, I'll be unworthy of being the Crown Prince!
Nobody knows...

Inside the Wenling Hall, there was a group of people!

His Majesty sat on a high dragon throne, with more than twenty people below him.

All six ministers were included.

The prime minister and high-ranking officials were all present.

Everyone saw everything in front of them through the official seal.

Everyone's backs were drenched in cold sweat.

Judging from Lin Xiaosu's inexplicable act of defying the Crown Prince, His Majesty is planning something major, something extremely significant.

Over the years, they had grown accustomed to the current state of the court, with the Crown Prince in charge when His Majesty was absent. Tonight, they were summoned to the palace late at night and witnessed firsthand how His Majesty's newly promoted Inspector General completely humiliated the Crown Prince.

What does it mean?
This means the wind direction is about to change!
These ministers were all shrewd and astute; through this extraordinary inspection, they all witnessed the most significant shift in the political climate at court.

The situation inside the Xin Ge Library was relayed to the Wenling Hall through Lin Xiaosu's official seal.

There was data on both sides, an endless amount of data.

However, Lin Xiaosu didn't even glance at it!
Go straight up to the second floor.

The second floor has far less information, but it is clearly more high-end.

He still didn't glance at anything and went straight up to the third floor!

As they ascended to the third floor, the old pavilion master's heart began to race...

The third layer is protected by an array, which can only be opened by the Pavilion Master's Token in his hand and by He Fanglue, the Dark Pavilion Master who just died at Huo Gang's hands.

Li Chengnian obviously cannot drive it.

If he demands that I, the Pavilion Master, open the door myself, should I comply?
Just as he was struggling with his inner turmoil, Lin Xiaosu gently raised her hand, drawing a graceful arc, and the third floor opened!

The old pavilion master's mind snapped back to reality, and he froze completely.

he……

How did they open this door?
What happened next made his heart race even faster.

Lin Xiaosu found a hidden door, and with a flick of her hand, the hidden door opened!

"Your Highness!" The old pavilion master leaped into the air: "The Inspector has maliciously disturbed the library; this must be stopped..."

The prince's expression had just softened a little, but it darkened again, and he clenched his teeth tightly.

Should it be stopped?

How can I stop it?

Let him investigate, and he might actually find out?
Are you kidding me?
How could He Fanglue possibly put those things outside?

Now that He Fanglue is dead, there is no way to verify his testimony.

The old pavilion master's face was contorted with rage. He desperately wanted to tell the Crown Prince that their secret door had been opened, but he couldn't say it, as Huo Gang was right beside him.

He wanted to use telepathy, but with Huo Gang beside him, he couldn't transmit his voice even with his primordial spirit.

He was incredibly anxious.

But the crown prince just couldn't receive it...

Lin Xiaosu had been to the library once before. The materials inside seemed vast, but he knew it like the back of his hand.

He raised his hand, revealing a scroll. He opened the scroll, and the contents inside shocked the imperial court.

"On the third day of the first month of the seventeenth year of Hongwu, a purge of the court was launched. The Xin Pavilion fabricated seventeen charges against him, removed Prime Minister Du Ding, and replaced him with Chen Zhengdao. The specific operational strategy was as follows: initiated by Censor Deng Kuan, with the cooperation of Vice Minister of Personnel Li Yue..."

The contents of this booklet appeared briefly.

Inside the Wenling Hall, Prime Minister Chen Zhengdao was greatly shaken.

Who would have thought that the first piece of evidence seen at this high-level meeting in front of His Majesty would be that of his own prime minister, Chen Zhengdao?
"Your Majesty, this...this is completely fabricated, this..." Chen Zhengdao knelt down with a thud.

His Majesty's face was hidden in the darkest night before dawn, and his voice came softly: "Prime Minister, please don't be impatient, watch slowly!"

The voice was as clear as water, cold and indifferent.

Sweat poured down the prime minister's back, soaking his clothes.

However, he dared not utter another word, nor did he dare to make any unusual movement, because outside the hall, it was unusually quiet. He knew what this quiet meant; it meant that the most mysterious Hidden Dragon Guards by His Majesty's side had already surrounded the hall.

Inside the library, the second booklet was unfolded.

"The Crown Prince convened a meeting of the Eastern Palace, attended by Chancellor Chen Zhengdao and Grand Master Zhou He. They formulated the Honghu Strategy, removed Minister of War Leng Hongyun, and replaced him with Li Yide, a close confidant of the Crown Prince."

tom!
Another person knelt down: Li Yide, the Minister of War.

But he didn't speak, he could only kowtow with his forehead...

The third booklet unfolds: "On the seventh day of the seventh month of the twenty-third year of Hongwu, the 'Heavenly Ladder Plan' was formulated. Xin Ge used a secret medicine to put the Crown Prince's life in danger. The Imperial Preceptor suggested that His Majesty pray for blessings, and that the high monk Xuan Kong of Tunyun Temple would use the art of cause and effect to seize His Majesty's destiny and thus enable the Crown Prince to achieve his great cause for eternity..."

With a loud bang, the entire hall shook.

This is the world-famous "Swallowing Clouds for Blessings"!
This is the real reason why His Majesty's fortunes have been reversed for ten years, and his luck has declined.

His Majesty suddenly stood up: "My ministers, do you understand now?"

More than twenty people below knelt down in unison.

His Majesty leaned forward slowly: "How dare such a rebellious son, who has no regard for his ruler or father and is utterly lawless, occupy the position of Crown Prince? Guards!"

"Here!" A group of people appeared on both sides at the same time.

On the left, the Grand Order.

On the right, the imperial edict is in effect.

"By imperial decree!" His Majesty said in a deep voice, "Crown Prince Hong Ding is disloyal and lawless, unfit for the position of Crown Prince. He is hereby stripped of his title and imprisoned in the Cold Prison of the Imperial Prison!" (End of Chapter)
