Time flips back to Chenshi on the fifth day of the fifth month. King Xiang still held the coffin and cried. Concubine Du and King Yu were led to the hall from both east and west. When they passed outside the hall, the officials took a few peeks, some with regretful eyes, some were looking forward to watching the show, and some even hoped that they would not be able to leave Chengyuan Palace in their lives.

King Yu and Concubine Du looked at each other. They were still wearing their usual clothes. Although they were not as gorgeous as the colors, they were obviously incompatible with the surrounding environment, and they did not conform to the etiquette rules that Emperor Liang should have during the funeral.

Among the simple crowd, Concubine Du and his son seemed particularly different. King Yu looked at Emperor Liang's spirit card and angrily scolded King Xiang: "Today is the day of my father's funeral. Why don't you notify me in advance?"

"Fourth brother, what you said is useless." King Xiang turned around, his red eyes and pale lips greatly highlighted his image as a filial son. "I clearly ordered the palace servant to pass on the message to you, but why did I come to argue with me? Yuan Zhen!"

"I'm here! I've sent the eunuch three days ago to inform me. Today, I saw the imperial concubine and His Highness Yu dressed in such a costume, and it must be because the eunuchs didn't do the job well. I'll punish me now!"

"Thank you for your hard work in Eunuch Chen, it is not easy for the eunuchs to be in charge. If they do things inappropriately, it is inevitable that they will be able to go one or two times. Today is the day for the emperor to have funeral, so it is naturally inappropriate for us mother and son to dress like this."

Concubine Du took off her outer cover in front of everyone, leaving only a white lining, and then took off all the gold hairpins, pearls and jade on her head, and her black hair was fixed by only a jade hairpin. Seeing this, King Yu learned to take off his coat and face Emperor Liang's spiritual position with his plain body.

"Your Majesty, I am here to pay my respects and send them off!"

Concubine Du and King Yu knelt down in front of Emperor Liang's spiritual throne, kowtowed three times in a row, each time it was loud and loud, and there could be seen flushing on both of them.

King Xiang looked at the two of them with a solemn expression, raised his voice and said, "The Imperial Hospital has completed the inspection of the incense burner searched from Qingzhi Palace. The incense ash of the incense burner is determined to be musk-scale incense. I wonder what the imperial concubine will explain this?"

Concubine Du stood up, and did not look at King Xiang. She kept staring at Emperor Liang's spiritual throne and said slowly: "The emperor is worried about the world and is in the government. He will inevitably feel uncomfortable and have poor sleep. This musk scale fragrance is a characteristic incense in my hometown. It has the effect of nourishing my mind. Every time the emperor comes to Qingzhi Palace, he will ask the palace to light incense."

"What a 'repairing mind'! Concubine, since musk scale fragrance is a special incense in your hometown, you won't be unaware of its toxicity!"

"I wonder if Your Highness Xiang, what is the toxicity of musk scale fragrance? Every time I lit incense, my palace and the palace servants are present. If it is poisonous, why are I safe and sound today?"

"This is to ask the fourth brother of my palace, your good son, Imperial Concubine!"

King Xiang pointed the finger at King Yu, and King Yu raised his chest and raised his head and said bluntly, "The father is indeed dead in my arms, but the person who really killed the father knows the most in his heart!"

"What the fourth brother said!" King Xiang walked to the palace gate of Chengyuan Palace and said to the officials: "The chef recommended to the palace in Qingshan Academy added a spice called Longku to the snacks he made for his father. This spice was produced in Xiatang and has a chronic toxicity and can make people sleepy and weak. Longku also has a characteristic, that is, once mixed with the musk scale fragrance, it will produce extremely toxicity, and it can be put to death within half an hour!"

"What evidence do you say like this!"

"Does Fourth Brother want evidence? I have never been a slander. Since Fourth Brother wants it, I can show you the diagnosis of the Imperial Hospital and the confession of the chef! Yuan Zhen!"

Chen Yuanzhen submitted two physical evidence to King Yu. Even though Concubine Du kept frowning at King Yu, the purpose was to let him not waste time on these physical evidence. However, King Yu was unwilling to give up, and he absolutely did not believe that Master Bai Shi would do such a thing. He really spread the physical evidence, especially after seeing Pang Kui's confession, King Yu immediately threw the confession to the ground angrily.

"Nonsense! Fat Kui, Shiraishi would never do such a thing! I did not let them use such inferior means to murder his father! Lao Wu, if you want to get the throne, even your father wants to murder, and at the same time you plan to blame me!"

"Fourth Brother! I will call you fourth brother now. It's all because I'm still caring about the brotherly relationship between us. If you confess truthfully, then I can keep you and the imperial concubine in front of all the officials!"

"Xiao Yunsheng, you are vicious and you have spent a lot of energy to plan such a big game of chess! You are fake to pass the imperial edict and secretly ordered me to return to Beijing to confirm the fact that I killed my father!"

"Fourth brother, everyone has evidence and physical evidence, do you still want to deny it? Who gave the decree to you when you return to Beijing? You have found the people and taken out the edict! You are colluding with the seventh brother, one is pretending to be absent on the front line, and one is taking advantage of the opportunity of royal celebration in the palace to catch me and the ministers! Isn't your purpose in seizing the throne with both literature and military? Fourth brother, you are pretending to be kind and filial and humble in your daily life, and you are the real conspirator at heart!"

"I have an opinion!"

Liao Zhen stood up again at the critical moment, and he raised his head and said: "Today is the day when the emperor is in funeral. How did Your Highness Xiang move what Dali Temple should do to Chengyuan Palace? Isn't this absurd? The case is handed over to the yamen that judges the case. The facts are subject to public opinion. You should not frame anyone before there is no correct evidence. Besides, Your Highness Yu is also a prince. Even if you have any mistakes, you should not be questioned in the palace!"

"What Lord Liao said is bad!" Zhang Huaiyuan made a list to refute "What a great thing this is this! Your Highness Xiang is the prince who was appointed by the emperor when he was alive. He is naturally responsible for pursuing the truth. Now the Imperial Hospital and Dali Temple have already presented the facts, but Lord Liao insists on not believing it, so what is his intention!"

"Facts? What is the fact? Just based on those few confessions, it can be determined that His Highness of the King of Yu asked the chef to poison the emperor. Just based on the incense ash in the incense burner, it can be determined that the concubine has been using poisonous incense for the emperor. Since it is the chef's confession, why not let the chef confront him in court!"

"Mr. Liao, you just said that today is the day for the emperor to have funeral, and Chengyuan Palace is not a place to decide the case. Is it because I want the chef to defile the emperor's spiritual position? Do you want the emperor to leave uneasy?"

Cai Xiang spoke. As the leader of all officials, his words had enough weight. Shen Qianji was very satisfied with Cai Quan's delay in time at this time. This was part of the plan. He had to wait for the signal he wanted.

It's almost time to calculate the time. Chen Qianji had turned around and looked at the sky several times, and finally a loud bang came from the sky. Everyone was attracted by the loud bang, but several of them were looking forward to it. They had to verify the quality of the signal.

After the purple petals bloomed in the air, Chen Qianji's face became extremely gloomy. He looked at King Xiang's face worriedly, but unfortunately he couldn't see clearly from a distance, but he believed that King Xiang must be disappointed and even hated him.

No, the plan must be started immediately! Chen Qianji raised his hand and took off his official hat. Dan Tai Guizong, who had been riding on the horse, saw his move and immediately ordered people to wave the corner flag used in the battle.

"My palace and Yunqi are willing to cooperate with the investigation of Dali Temple to restore the innocence of our mother and son. Since today is the day for the emperor to have funeral, nothing can disturb the auspicious time. Our identity is still there, and we are also qualified to support our spirits!"

According to the Liang Dynasty's ancestral system, all living princes must participate in the emperor's funeral to show their filial piety. According to the prince's identity, the prince is at the front of the coffin, and then is a prince of different levels. Now King Xiang is still the Prince of Five Pearls, and King Yu has been demoted to Prince, so King Xiang is in front and King Yu can only be behind him.

"The suspicion of King Yu has not been lifted, and he is not qualified to support the spirit!" Zhang Huaiyuan firmly opposed this.

King Xiang did not speak, Cai Xiang suggested: "His Highness Xiang has made it clear about the matter between King Yu and the Imperial Concubine. Since there is no complete conviction, King Yu is still qualified to help the spirits with His Highness Xiang. The time is coming, and the funeral is important."

"What does Cai Xiang mean? The implication is that King Yu is still guilty, but he did not continue to pursue the matter because of the time of the funeral?" Liao Zhen was very dissatisfied with Cai Quan's words.

"Okay, don't argue anymore! Cai Xiang's words are reasonable. Let me let the fourth brother help the spirit together. After the father is buried in the imperial tomb, he will investigate it carefully!"

"Heaven's spirit!"
