Updated 10/08/2026 5 min read

Tham Nghien Phong was kneeling on the ground. At this moment, my whole body suddenly stiffened. My heart suddenly jumped. The Crown Prince also looked at Tham Nghien Phong, murderous intent flashing in his eyes. Tham Nghien Phong's face was as white as paper.

“What are you looking at me for?”

Tham Nghien Tu calmly said:

"In the iron box at the Tham family palace, there is hidden Mrs. To's blood book."

"In the secret room of the Tieu family's mansion, Lady To's jade brooch is hidden."

“And you can simultaneously contact the Tieu family, the Tham family, and the Dong palace.”

“And I still think I have left a way out.”

“Only you.”

Tham Nghien Phong frantically shook his head.

“I don't have it.”

The prince shouted loudly:

“Tham Nghien Phong!”

“Do you dare to betray this palace?”

Tham Nghien Phong was so scared that he trembled. But immediately turned to bite back.

“Your Highness, don't slander me.”

“I have never seen such a thing as a true projection.”

Tham Nghien Tu looked at his side. That place originally hung half of the Crown Prince's jade pendant. Now the pearl has been taken away. Only an empty jade tassel remained. I suddenly remembered something. Last year, there was a time when Tham Nghien Phong carried with him an ebony scented bag every day. I once asked him where that scented bag came from. It was a peace talisman that Mrs. Tham prayed for him. That scented bag is very old. However, the embroidery is extremely delicate. Later, when I changed the jade tassel for him. Once accidentally touched that scented bag. The inside doesn't look like it contains fragrance. It's like hiding something hard. I suddenly raised my head.

“Ebony scent bag.”

Tham Nghien Phong's face immediately changed. Tham Nghien Tu turned to look at me. I stared at Tham Nghien Phong.

“The ebony perfume bag that you always carried with you last year.”

“Where now?”

Tham Nghien Phong's lips were pale white.

“What scent bag?”

“I don't remember.”

I coldly said:

“You remember.”

“You yourself said it was a peace charm that Mrs. Tham prayed for you.”

“Don't let anyone touch you.”

“There was a time when Lieu Oanh just reached out to touch it.”

“You immediately squeezed her wrist on the spot.”

Lieu Oanh hugged the baby and knelt on one side, immediately crying and nodding.

"That's right."

“The slave family has seen it.”

“When the Second Young Master was fast asleep.”

“The slave still hears people talking in their sleep.”

“Speaker, just have that thing in hand.”

“The Crown Prince and Queen will not dare to throw you away.”

The Crown Prince's face was even more unsightly than Tham Nghien Phong's. The murderous intent in the Queen's eyes could no longer be hidden. Tham Nghien Tu raised his hand.

"Ransack."

The guard immediately stepped forward to control Tham Nghien Phong. Tham Nghien Phong struggled frantically.

“I am a royal official!”

“On what basis are you examining me!”

Van Tranh personally stepped forward and kicked the back of Tham Nghien Phong's knee. Tham Nghien Phong cried out in pain, his whole body fell heavily to the ground.

“Only for the crime of killing you and taking the title, falsifying military reports, and participating in forced confessions.”

She said coldly:

“Is it enough?”

Soon, the guard found an ebony scented bag from the inner lining of his traditional clothes. The scented bag had been soaked in sweat until it was dark in color. The moment he saw it, Tham Nghien Phong's whole body seemed to have been stripped of all its bones. The Crown Prince suddenly shouted loudly:

“Cancel it!”

An Eastern Palace martyr At the palace, the man who had not yet been disarmed suddenly erupted, pulled out a short knife hidden in his sleeve and rushed straight towards Van Tranh. Tham Nghien Tu reacted extremely quickly, used the sheath of his knife to sweep horizontally, knocking that guy out. But another martyr took advantage of the chaos and rushed into the coal pot. The ebony perfume bag slipped from his hand and flew straight towards the embers. I almost didn't have time to think, I rushed forward and grabbed it with my sleeve. The fire immediately caught on his sleeve. The burning pain instantly penetrated straight into the skin. Tham Nghien Tu immediately pulled me into his arms, his palm wind swept across, extinguishing all the sparks. That was the first time his voice became confused.

“To Van Nguyet!”

My face was so painful it turned white. But still holding the scented bag tightly in my hand.

“I'm okay.”

Van Tranh immediately opened the fragrant bag. There is no fragrance inside. There was only an extremely small piece of bright gold brocade rolled up. The Emperor step by step walked down from his throne. Everyone held their breath. The eunuch trembled as he opened the brocade. There aren't many words on it. But only the first line. It caused all the courtiers in the main hall to kneel down at the same time. That is not an imperial edict. It is not a decree to establish another Hien Vuong. It was a secret edict aimed at the Tieu family. When the eunuch read the first sentence of the decree. The Queen's face was completely pale.

"The Tieu family, my grandmother liked to be autocratic, secretly cast sister's seals, forged edicts, formed factions to seek personal gain. After I die, if someone from the Tieu family takes the decree and disrupts the government, all the subjects in the world can be exterminated."

People kneeling in the main hall. I didn't even dare to raise my head.
