Noble Consort Su was a very suspicious person. Bai Xiangxiu didn't even need to think before she said, "This matter definitely has something to do with her. I think those miracle doctors are all dead to be able to change her face to that state."
"Face?"
Yu Kuang asked curiously.
Bai Xiangxiu told him about how Noble Consort Su was Su Yun, and how Noble Consort Su had changed her appearance.
"You mean to say that after that woman became beautiful, she killed everyone in order to cover up the truth?"
Luo Yuncheng almost couldn't believe it. He felt that it was too crazy.
Bai Xiangxiu knew that if it was her, she wouldn't do such a thing. But if it was Su Yun, she would definitely do it.
"Then you mean to say that there's no need to look for those godly doctors. They're all dead?" Long Heng said.
"Yes." Bai Xiangxiu said.
"But if they're alive, we have to see them. If they're dead, we have to see their corpses." Yu Kuang said.
"Ha, I don't know about other things, but you can never imagine how the imperial court handles corpses." Luo Yuncheng said.
The people of Jianghu had a grudge with the imperial court, so Yu Kuang agreed.
Long Heng said, "It's impossible to leave no traces behind. But there's no need to investigate. Since she's definitely the one who did it, we have to make her give herself away."
"What do you mean?"
Bai Xiangxiu seemed to have understood his meaning. Long Heng looked at the two of them and said, "If you want to seek justice for the godly doctors, then I'll leave this matter to you."
"Aren't you afraid that the imperial court will fall into chaos?" Luo Yuncheng smiled.
"So be it. After all, if they can do such a thing, why would they be afraid of chaos?"
"Very well, we've been quiet for too long. It's time to come out and move around."
"In that case, Luo Yunzheng and I will handle this matter."
Yu Kuang said. Everyone studied for a while and realized that Imperial Consort Su was a ruthless person.
Yes, not only was she ruthless, but she was also very careful, so they couldn't find any evidence to prove that she was the culprit for the time being.
However, they were not investigating a case. Why would they need to look for evidence? They just needed to know that she was the one who did it.
The corner of Long Heng's mouth was cold as he tapped the table with one hand. He had been like this ever since Yu Kuang and the others left.
"What are you thinking about?"
"I'm thinking about how to change the person in charge of the imperial court."
"Uh … Can I ask, who will it be?"
"Guess."
Long Heng gently lifted Bai Xiangxiu's chin, and a smile appeared on his face. Then, he leaned in and whispered into her ear, "What do you think about being the Empress?"
"Actually, if you really want to, I don't mind."
"Haha, I knew you would say that.
Mother and Lin Lin have already prepared to return to their hometown. I will arrange for them to go to Peace City from the countryside. "
"You want to go back?
But His Majesty will definitely not let the tiger return to the mountain. "
"Ha, what if I'm in more danger in Beijing?"
"I'm afraid that will only make the tiger jump over the wall."
"What if they don't even have a chance to jump over the wall?"
"What method?"
Bai Xiangxiu asked curiously. She had a feeling that her husband already had an idea.
"In short, make a fuss with them first. The bigger the fuss, the better. Make them focus their attention on you and not on me, the idle Prince."
"Oh, I understand. You want to use us as bait to shift the target. Once we catch something, we'll make a big deal out of it."
This was easy. She was more than happy to do so.
No wonder Long Heng had been keeping a low profile recently. He seemed very casual.
However, she couldn't tell if he wanted to be the Emperor himself or let someone else do it.
But who would that person be? Who would have the ability to take over the throne?
The Crown Prince was only ten years old. Unless …
Prince Rong?
He was the only relative of the imperial family. However, he had always been honest and indifferent to fame and fortune. He also didn't have any real power in the imperial court.
However, there was one thing she was certain of. The fact that Prince Rong could survive until now proved that he wasn't a fool.
However, during her time in Tranquil City, she had a feeling that Prince Rong wasn't an ordinary person. When it was time to make a decision, he didn't shirk his responsibilities. However, he was too low-key. Sometimes, he would give all the credit to Long Heng.
At that time, she was puzzled as to why he would do that. But now that she thought about it, it was probably because he was too outstanding and attracted the stingy Emperor's suspicion that he was plotting a rebellion.
It wasn't proper for a minister to rebel, but it was different for him.
She wasn't familiar with this kind of thing in ancient times. However, thinking about it, she couldn't help but feel a strange sense of cruelty.
In modern times, there were very few relatives in each family. Therefore, under normal circumstances, they were very close. It was rare for people to fight for power like in ancient times.
Since Long Heng wanted them to make a fuss, they definitely couldn't do it lightly.
Yu Kuang and Luo Yuncheng organized a group of jianghu people to spread a few rumors. These rumors were all made up by Bai Xiangxiu.
Firstly, there was an imperial concubine who was originally very ugly. However, in order to gain the Emperor's favor, she found a godly doctor to treat her ugly face. In the end, she became beautiful and became an imperial concubine.
Secondly, the Emperor kidnapped a concubine of a prince from an enemy country. However, her face was disfigured. In order to treat her, the Emperor invited several godly doctors. However, he didn't expect the beauty to be so vicious. In order to prevent the news of her ugly face from spreading, she killed all of the godly doctors.
Originally, there was less than one dead godly doctor, so people had already noticed this.
Once this rumor was spread, it immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Countless victims' families came to the capital and filed a lawsuit against the authorities.
The Godly Doctor was originally a very powerful existence, especially when their family members were rich and powerful. Who would just watch their family members disappear for no reason and ignore them?!
Originally, it was fine if there were no rumors. However, once there was a clue, people immediately came from all directions to find it.
This matter became bigger and bigger, but there was no response from the Imperial Palace. Even more so, the authorities wouldn't accept it.
The more it was like this, the more it had the opposite effect. Those victims' families actually banded together and prepared to file a lawsuit against the Emperor.
Of course, the people who contacted them behind the scenes were being instructed by Luo Yuncheng and Yu Kuang.
Originally, they wouldn't oppose the Imperial Court. However, the two missing godly doctors were reputable figures in the jianghu. Many people had received their kindness, so there were many people who wanted to stand up for them.
Luo Yunzheng had been entrusted with this task by a friend, while the wulin alliance heads had naturally done it for the sake of peace in the wulin world. Bai Xiangxiu had been too embarrassed to thank them, so they'd told her this.
She was originally quite embarrassed. After all, it seemed like she was using others.
Then, she knew that they also had their own responsibilities. She was just an opportunity.
However, only now did she know that according to Luo Yuncheng and the others' calculations, close to twelve godly doctors had disappeared from various places. This didn't even include the ones secretly captured from the enemy country.
There were twelve of them. How could they be killed just like that?
Bai Xiangxiu didn't understand. Was Su Yun crazy? Or was he obsessed with reading novels?
