The Third Prince couldn't help but feel a little interested. His mansion was quite lively today, as it had been visited by Taoist priests.

He glanced at the Crown Prince and Ying Yufu again, with a hint of schadenfreude.

Now look what's happened! The fake Taoist priest has met the real one. Let's see what they have to say.

Before long, the two old Taoist priests were led in.

The two old Taoist priests, one tall and one short, one fat and one thin, were both dressed in gray Taoist robes and holding silver-gray whisks. As soon as they entered the mansion, they glanced around and were taken aback when they saw the two Taoist priests beside the Third Prince.

Why are there other Taoist priests in the Third Prince's residence?

What a coincidence today!

The Crown Prince and Ying Yufu were also very surprised; these were two fake Taoist priests!

The reason is simple: Ying Yufu has a cheating device.

Xiao Dian: [Host, these two are also imposters; they are envoys from the Southern Barbarians in disguise!]

Ying Yufu's face immediately turned cold.

The envoy from the Southern Barbarians, disguised as a Taoist priest, came to the Third Prince's residence in the middle of the night; it was clear he was up to no good.

Ying Yufu snorted coldly and said, "Little Madman, I'm going to teach them a lesson."

[Ding! The face-slapping mechanism has been triggered. Host, please teach these two fake Taoists a lesson and expose their true colors.]

Ying Yufu was overjoyed; these points were practically delivered to her doorstep!

Then the two fake Taoist priests, disguised as the Southern Barbarian envoys, spoke up: "This humble Taoist is Kongxu, and this is my junior brother Kongxuan. We are Taoist priests from Yunfang Temple in Huanan Mountain."

My fellow disciple and I were traveling around when we passed by this place. We saw your esteemed residence shrouded in auspicious purple light and felt a sense of destiny, so we came to take a look.

The tall, thin old Taoist priest spoke up.

The Third Prince became interested. "Oh, so it's the two Daoist masters, Emptiness and Suspension. May I ask what you two mean by 'purple aura soaring to the sky'?"

"This is a secret of heaven, and can only be told to you alone. No one else may hear it."

Kongxu glanced at Ying Yufu and the Crown Prince.

Ying Yufu immediately objected, saying, "Fellow Daoist, you can see that this nobleman's house is filled with purple aura, and so can we. Why don't you just tell us directly and see if we have the same answer?"

The Crown Prince also said, "That's right, please speak directly."

Kongxu and Kongxuan's expressions immediately darkened. They looked at Ying Yufu and the other person and asked, "Which Taoist temple do you two young juniors come from? What school do you follow?"

We two are highly skilled in cultivation, which is why we could see it.

"You two are so young and your cultivation is still shallow, yet you speak so arrogantly and disrespectfully to your seniors. It's utterly outrageous!"

The prince exclaimed in surprise, "Senior is indeed a master. My reputation is arrogant."

Ying Yufu was taken aback for a moment, then said, "I am Ji?"

"Cough cough cough..." The Third Prince choked on his own saliva.

He looked at the Crown Prince and Ying Yufu with disbelief.

Bai Mei's eyes widened even more, and she said innocently, "But didn't you two just say that you came here because you discovered demonic energy in the mansion?"

They exchanged a glance, and a glint of light flashed in their eyes simultaneously.

It seems these two young people really are liars.

Immediately, they sneered, "So young, and with such poor skills, you dare to show off your mystique? This place is filled with noble air, where is the demonic aura?"

"You two, leave at once!"

"I think you two are the ones who are just taking advantage of your age. We two are disciples of the Qingsong Temple in Tianshan Mountain, and we have real skills."

Kongxu and Kongxuan's expressions changed slightly.

The Tianshan Qingsong Temple was just as famous as the Baiyu Temple a hundred years ago.

However, Qingsong Temple later went into seclusion.

Kong Xuan sneered, "Ridiculous. Qing Song Temple has been in seclusion for many years. Who would believe you two who claim to be from Qing Song Temple?"

The Third Prince said, "I can testify that they are from Qingsong Temple."

Bai Mei's eyes flashed, and she said, "But Your Highness, didn't they just say they came from the south? Tianshan Qingsong Temple seems to be in the west..."

The Third Prince glanced at Bai Mei and said, "Nonsense. They just said they came from the west."

Bai Mei was speechless.

"Did you hear that? We're from Qingsong Temple." Ying Yufu said smugly as she sat down at the table.

Kongxu and Kongxuan exchanged a glance. Kongxu said, "Even so, what we two have to say can only be told to you, sir. If it is told to others, it may be detrimental to you."

The Third Prince's lips twitched, and his gaze toward the two men became exceptionally unfriendly.

These two people were acting suspiciously; they didn't look like good people at all.

He absolutely could not allow the Crown Prince and Anguo to leave.

He said, "I am not afraid of others listening. These two Taoist priests are people I trust. You two can speak freely."

Emptiness and Suspension exchanged a glance and a look.

Since the Third Prince of Beixuan himself is not afraid, what else do they have to worry about?

Anyway, all they wanted to do was stir up internal strife in Beixuan and make the Third Prince fight with the Crown Prince.

They don't care about anything else.

So Kongxu said, "Since that's the case, then I'll speak frankly."

Then he said, "My fellow Daoist and I just saw your mansion filled with purple aura soaring into the sky, reaching straight to the Purple Palace."

The Third Prince's heart skipped a beat, and his expression changed instantly.

He already guessed what the two were going to talk nonsense about.

He looked at the crown prince in alarm.

But the Crown Prince sat down leisurely, looking quite excited.

How could the Third Prince not know him well?

That bastard prince is just looking for a show.

He certainly made a scene, but what about him?

The Third Prince was on the verge of tears when he heard the two empty-headed men say again, "The moment we entered the manor and saw the noble person, we were certain of what we had just seen. The noble person was surrounded by a purple aura, truly the countenance of a chosen one!"

The Third Prince: "..."

The third prince looked at the two of them with a look of horror.

He slammed his hand on the table and stood up: "Nonsense! You two heretics! My elder brother, the Crown Prince, is the one with the Ziwei destiny. That was said by the Abbot of Baiyu Temple himself. How could you possibly compare to his prediction?"

Kongxu and Kongxuan were not in a hurry, but simply said: "It is true that the Crown Prince has the Ziwei destiny, but the Ziwei destiny does not mean that he is the true Son of Heaven."

Throughout history, many Ziwei stars have fallen from grace. The noble person in question is a true emperor, and this does not contradict the fact that the noble person's elder brother also possesses the Ziwei destiny.

After they finished speaking, they sighed softly, "It's just a pity that the nobleman's destiny as the Son of Heaven has been hampered by the Ziwei star, preventing him from realizing his potential."

The two of them shouldn't make their provocative remarks too obvious.

Bai Mei, unaware of the hidden story, was stunned and stood there dumbfounded.

My cousin is right. This third prince might really be able to ascend to that position, and I... might really be able to become a palace concubine.

If she gives birth to the eldest son, he might become the crown prince and inherit the throne.

If the child is her cousin's bloodline, wouldn't that mean...?

Thinking of this, Bai Mei's eyes widened instantly, and she became excited.

[Host, this concubine Bai is agitated; she wants her son, born from her affair with her cousin, to become emperor.]

Ying Yufu sneered inwardly.

She looked at the two people opposite her and said, "Please have some tea, Taoist priests. What you said is the same as what we just saw. You two are indeed masters."

Ying Yufu personally pushed the teapot toward them.

Kongxu and Kongxuan exchanged a glance, both of them showing surprise. Were they also here to sow discord between the Third Prince of Beixuan?

Were they sent by Dongchen or Xilin?

The two men, their mouths dry from talking, picked up the teapot, poured two large cups, and gulped them down.

Bai Mei's face was incredibly terrifying.
