Chapter 285 "How is this possible?"
Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager looked at Zuo Chi in disbelief, then turned to look at Emperor Zhengcang.
Seeing the solemn expressions on both of their faces, she couldn't help but murmur.
Emperor Zhengcang sighed almost inaudibly when he saw this.
Just after listening to Zuo Chi talking like that and deliberately avoiding the Empress Dowager when talking about his twin brother, Emperor Zhengcang guessed that Zuo Chi's words might have something to do with that person. .
Sure enough, when he heard Zuo Chi say that the man was the mastermind of the Three Kings' rebellion sixteen years ago, Emperor Zhengcang's heart sank, but he was not too surprised.
The Empress Dowager was different.
She had never seen the child since he was born.
Her eagerness to see each other and the nature of mother and child made it impossible for the Empress Dowager to make any judgment on what Zuo Chi said.
Just when the Empress Dowager was in a daze, she heard Emperor Zhengcang standing aside ask in a deep voice: "Zuo Chi, you mean that as early as sixteen years ago, that person already knew his true identity."
Zuo Chi nodded when he heard this, glanced at the Empress Dowager, and continued: "Weichen believes that he may have known his life experience from the beginning."
"No, no, the child was only seven years old when grandma died.
How could he know?"
The Empress Dowager was in a daze at this time, shaking her head.
But when Zuo Chi heard this, he frowned and said in a deep voice: "Seven years old?
It turns out that he knew it at that time.
I didn't expect that he had been planning for so many years."
Emperor Zhengcang heard Zuo Chi say this.
He couldn't help but squint his eyes, but he glanced at the depressed mother beside him, then sighed and said to Zuo Chi: "That's all.
You follow me to the study."
Unexpectedly, Zuo Chi actually said: "No."
Emperor Zhengcang raised his eyes to look at Zuo Chi and saw his resolute face.
After a moment, he said: "Zuo Chi, you should know that this is the imperial palace, how can it allow you to keep messing around?"
Zuo Chi heard this and cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, it's not that Zuo Chi is doing this intentionally.
In fact, it's because, in that person's eyes, this humble minister is now a dead person."
Emperor Zhengcang was immediately stunned and asked in confusion: "What does this mean?"
Zuo Chi was not in a hurry to answer, but said to Emperor Zhengcang:
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is not in good spirits.
It is better to ask her to go back to the palace to rest.
Wait for the Queen Mother to leave.
I will discuss it with the Emperor in detail."
Emperor Zhengcang thought for a moment after hearing this, nodded and said: "That's fine."
So Emperor Zhengcang commanded in a deep voice: "Comer" When Zuo Chi saw a noise outside the door, he moved and hid behind the screen.
Emperor Zhengcang glanced faintly at the place where Zuo Chi was hiding, and watched the maid helping the Queen Mother back to the dormitory, and couldn't help but secretly said: Zuo Chi, dressed in white clothes that was different from the past, sneaked into the palace secretly, and used the pardon issued by him to lead him here.
He is so evasive, even in this palace, he is so cautious.
Could it be that there are actually people in this palace that Zuo Chi wants to be wary of?
In an instant, Emperor Zhengcang immediately recalled all Zuo Chi's words just now.
Emperor Zhengcang remembered that Zuo Chi used the word "collusion between internal and external parties" when talking about the rebellion of the three kings sixteen years ago.
Outside, there is his twin brother from the same mother.
Inside, who is it?
"No one is allowed to come near this place without my instructions.
In addition, those who secretly investigate the Queen Mother's palace are not allowed to reveal anything about today's events to the outside world.
Otherwise, I will not give mercy lightly."
After the relevant people who had to serve the Queen Mother back to the palace left, Emperor Zhengcang stood at the door and gave deep instructions to his hidden confidants.
"Follow your orders" Zuo Chi looked outside through the gap in the screen.

The person he saw was actually the secret guard who intercepted Zuo Chi on the roof and handed the pardon order to Emperor Zhengcang.
He couldn't help but feel relieved.
Unexpectedly, that person was actually Emperor Zhengcang’s confidant.
There was no one around.
Emperor Zhengcang returned to sit on the chair in the middle of the Buddhist hall.
He watched Zuo Chi slowly walk out from behind the screen and said: "Master Xiao Zuo, I need to know what the matter is like.
You know everything."
When Zuo Chi entered the palace this time, he originally wanted to find an opportunity to tell Emperor Zhengcang everything.
When he heard that Emperor Zhengcang had the same intention, he nodded, stepped forward, knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, before that, I have to ask Your Majesty to forgive me for the crime of deception."
"Deceive" Emperor Zhengcang looked at Zuo Chi in confusion when he heard this.
Such words were rarely said from Zuo Chi's mouth, but when he saw that even though Zuo Chi said he was sorry, his expression was extremely magnanimous.
Emperor Zhengcang couldn't help but chuckle and said: "That's all.
I'm sorry for the trouble you made today.
I don't mind blaming you.
Get up.
Just say it."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Zuo Chi stood up immediately and continued: "Your Majesty, during the Dou Ba unjust case, Wei Chen once said that I found the Gu Insect Key among the seventeen corpses found in Bai'an Village.
In fact, this was not the case.
There was actually someone else who had the Gu Insect Key. ”
"How could he have the Gu insect key that I gave to my third brother?"
Emperor Zhengcang asked immediately after hearing this.
In the world today, only his own mother, the empress dowager of the current dynasty, can produce the Gu key.
There is no other person in the world except the one he gave to the King of Yue.
Zuo Chi said: "This person's name is Deng Si'er.
He is fifteen years old this year, and the Gu insect key is something he has owned since he was born."
"What do you mean?"
Emperor Zhengcang asked again.
Zuo Chi looked at Emperor Zhengcang, took a deep breath, and finally told Deng Si'er's life experience: "Your Majesty, Deng Si'er, he is the orphan of Uncle Yue Wang."
Orphan of the King of Yue When Emperor Zhengcang heard this, he stared at Zuo Chi in front of him in surprise, but saw that Zuo Chi's face seemed to be a little relieved, so he asked eagerly: "Where is he right now, but with you?"
Zuo Chi shook his head and replied: "No, Your Majesty, Deng Si'er was taken away by that man as early as January."
"He" Zhengcang Emperor could not hide his inner shock at this time.
He tightly grasped the hand on the corner of the table, with blue veins popping out.
Zuo Chi knew that what he said today was extremely shocking to both Emperor Zhengcang and the Empress Dowager.
However, even so, Zuo Chi had always had a belief in his heart that he would prove his identity for Deng Si'er. .
So Zuo Chi said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, in fact, from the beginning of Bai'an Village, Wei Chen has known Deng Si'er.
At that time" Zuo Chi slowly, and even more carefully, started with the seventeen skeletons in Bai'an Village.
Later, he met Chu Jing, who pretended to be the king of Yue and deliberately approached him and Deng Si'er.
The three of them went to Chongyang in Tuzhou together.
Academy, rescued Dou Ba, and then went to Nanhu Later, he returned to the capital to vindicate Dou Ba's unjust case, and everything that happened next, including the fact that he was buried at the bottom of the river in the eyes of others, Zuo Chi told Emperor Zhengcang, including the master of the Shadow Sect, in a concise and clear manner.
Including Concubine Song.
But after that, Emperor Zhengcang's voice was not heard for a long time.
It wasn't until Emperor Zhengcang opened his mouth to discuss with Zuo Chi again that it was not until sunset that Emperor Zhengcang opened the door and left.
Zuo Chi was dressed in white and stood at the highest point of the Queen Mother's palace.
The wind blew the corners of Zuo Chi's clothes, but it did not affect Zuo Chi's strong and upright figure at all.

No one knows what exactly Emperor Zhengcang discussed with Zuo Chi on this day and how he made the decision:
