Farm widows have space, pick up a treasure on the way to escape

Chapter 398
Prince Jing was not very clear-headed at this time, and even when he was sober, he would not be very smart. Now that he was fooled by Lin Yiping, he instantly felt that it made sense.

"But all the evidence now points to Daoping. If he was able to poison my father this time, he might do it again next time. By then, wouldn't I be the culprit?"

Fortunately, although his heart was moved, he still retained a trace of reason. Once something like this went wrong, it would be doomed.

"Your Highness is right to think so, but if you think about it again, Daoping is an old man over 200 years old, why would he care about these common things? From what I see, there is definitely something fishy about this matter, and Daoping must have been framed. He's just a Taoist priest, what bad things can he do?"

Lin Yiping tried his best to persuade, and Prince Jing was actually convinced by what he said.

Yes, a person who has lived for 200 years should have already looked down on the common things in this world. He may just be at ease and want to study how to live longer. As for the emperor's poisoning, it does need to be considered.

"Brother Yiping's analysis seems to make some sense."

"That's natural! He is just a Taoist priest. If he really did anything wrong, it was to send that poisonous pill to the emperor. Who would be so stupid and blatantly send poison? What's more, he managed to survive After living for more than 200 years, how could he suddenly lose his mind and do something that is obviously going to lead to death? He must have been wrongly accused!"

The more Lin Yiping talked, the more excited he became, and the smile on his face was very bright, which made Prince Jing feel that Lin Yiping was really planning for him and looking for a future for him.

Seeing King Jing becoming more and more shaken, he continued: "Your Highness, think about it, whoever was most opposed to this matter from the beginning is the most likely initiator. And as long as we catch this initiator, we can prove it." Ping is innocent and can gain the emperor's trust at the same time. In this way, can you surpass the prince in the emperor's heart?"

Lin Yiping deliberately turned the flames on King Chen, and as expected, King Jing was fooled.

"Isn't it obvious who is the culprit? A few days ago, the third child came to the palace to slander Daoping and was punished by the father. Now the father is poisoned. How could such a coincidence happen? ?”

Prince Jing immediately figured it out and repeated: "Yes, yes, Lao San must have framed Daoping for this matter! He just ate too much to support himself, why should he argue with a Taoist priest? Humph, I will enter the palace now See my father and let him know that it was the third child who poisoned him. This way, my father can deal with him directly without me having to fight with the third child!"

The more he thought about it, the happier he became. He felt that King Chen was indeed stupid in this matter, but it didn't matter, as long as it was beneficial to him.

Thinking that he would be able to bring King Chen down soon, he couldn't restrain his excitement!

As he said this, he was about to walk out, not considering that he would have to enter the palace to meet the saint in the middle of the night.

Lin Yiping grabbed him and said: "Your Highness is still the same as before, always so impatient. Don't worry, we still have to plan what to say to convince the emperor, instead of acting so recklessly. Besides, we are here The first rescue of Daoping cannot be in vain, we must let Daoping know and make him feel grateful, so that he can be used by His Highness in the future."

"Yes, yes, I didn't even think of this! I was just impatient, so I listened to Brother Yiping!"

Prince Jing nodded in agreement, deeply admiring Lin Yiping and thanking him for coming over to advise him in the middle of the night.

What they didn't know was that when Lin Yiping entered Prince Jing's residence, he had already been seen and reported to Prince Chen and Lu Baichuan.

"In your opinion, what will they discuss?"

King Chen looked at Lu Baichuan and wanted to hear his thoughts.

Lu Baichuan did not answer immediately, but pondered for a while, and then said: "Lin Yiping has always presented himself as an idle young man, and his relationship with Prince Jing is just as gentle as water, but now he breaks into Prince Jing's palace at night. It is obvious that he is not Shen. Stay here, go find Prince Jing now, I must be asking Prince Jing to help solve Daoping's matter."

"I have occasionally followed Lin Yiping before and saw him going to meet with Prince Jing. When the two were chatting about Daoping, Prince Jing called Daoping "Yao Dao" and looked very disdainful. He should have discussed the matter with Daoping before. It’s irrelevant, but Lin Yiping vaguely mentioned letting Prince Jing cooperate with Daoping, and Prince Jing was a little moved.”

"Going to see Prince Jing tonight will most likely lead to trouble for His Highness. Prince Jing is simple-minded and will definitely fall into the trap. In this case, His Highness's situation will be in danger." He said this, but looking at Lu Baichuan's appearance, There was no rush, and he even looked like he had a chance to win.

King Chen nodded repeatedly as he listened to his analysis. What Lu Baichuan said was almost the same as what he thought, and many of them were even unexpected by him, but he said it in just a short time.

"Oh, I don't know who the sixth child is. He was sold to someone else and helped him count the money. After all, he is a half-brother, and I don't want him to be taken advantage of all the time."

Lu Baichuan nodded and said, "Then let him have a long memory."

Early the next morning, King Jing got up early to prepare to enter the palace. As he was about to go out, he heard the servants in the palace secretly discussing Daoping's affairs.

He vaguely heard something and felt something was wrong, so he called people over and asked, "What are you talking about? What happened outside?"

The servants were trembling and dared not speak for a long time.

Prince Jing became more and more angry and said, "I want you to speak! The one at the end, you say it!"

"Yes Yes……"

The servant spoke in a trembling voice: "Just...just...just..."

"speak politely!"

Prince Jing was very impatient and kicked the man to the ground: "If you don't speak politely, you will cut off your tongue and sell it!"

"Your Highness, please calm down and please speak up!"

The servant was so excited that he no longer trembled when he spoke.

"Early this morning, His Highness Chen Wang made the arrest of Master Daoping public and dragged the Taoist priests through the streets. All those Taoist priests did not really live to be two hundred years old. They were fake and liars! King Chen His Highness also asked the imperial physician to examine Master Daoping and said that his body was that of a mature man and could not be that of someone who had lived for 200 years!"

"He is not a serious Taoist priest. He never talks about Taoism in the Taoist temple. He spends every day thinking about how to defraud the emperor of his money!"

"This little one only knows so much. Please forgive me, Your Highness!"

As he spoke, he kowtowed, and blood soon began to flow from his forehead. It seemed that he was really afraid of being betrayed.

As a slave, you have no right to make decisions about your own life.

Prince Jing was stunned. Is Daoping fake?
Is this all a scam?

"Come here, go and call all the people who were stationed at the Taoist temple last night. I want to ask them clearly!"
