Mrs. He immediately thought of more - the Yunnan generals, that is to say, the forces that attacked them were actually from Yunnan! It was really similar to Su Yao's analysis. Those people must have seen that the situation in Yunnan was not right, so they wanted to quickly disrupt the capital to help relieve the pressure on Yunnan.
Her eyes still hurt a little, and her head was buzzing because she had received too much stimulation at once, but she still rushed over immediately: "You actually colluded with each other, on the one hand, you were plotting to murder the Crown Prince in Yunnan, and on the other hand, you set a trap for me in the capital! What sinister intentions do you have?!"
Liu Chunwang fell to the ground. When he saw Madam He rushing towards him, he subconsciously reached out to hold his head. When he found that Madam He had no intention of hitting him, he let go of her hand and kowtowed to Emperor Yuanfeng with a sad face: "Your Majesty, it is all my fault. I was blinded by greed. It was you who promoted me back then. It was you who thought highly of me and sent me to the Weaving Bureau... But I, I am not up to the standard..."
Emperor Yuanfeng was an emperor who had led troops in battles. When Liu Chunwang was hesitating and talking nonsense, he kicked him over and looked at him with his eyes downcast: "You don't have to talk so much nonsense. Just tell me, what else are you hiding from me? Who else is helping you?"
Liu Chunwang’s fear of Emperor Yuanfeng was deep-rooted. When Emperor Yuanfeng got really angry, he didn’t dare to play dumb anymore. He stepped back a few steps, knelt down, and said in horror: “Your Majesty, I used to listen to Prince Zhuang, but then the prince died, so I listened to Prince Fenyang’s Mansion. They all wanted to do business on the sea, so… I had no choice but to be caught. Later, Prince Zhuang and Prince Fenyang were both gone, and I was like a duckweed without roots. I originally thought that I would reform myself and never do such bad things again, but who knew… who knew that General Wei would come to me again…”
The ready-made evidence was in the other party's hands. If he refused to go along with the evildoers, he would be doomed. Liu Chunwang had no choice but to continue to board General Wei's pirate ship.
His forehead was bleeding and his lips were chapped, but at this time, he didn't care and didn't dare to pay attention. He just kowtowed more and more, and then confessed in a crying voice that the person who instructed them and had the final say in the capital was Ren Chuanhou, the Lord Ren who replaced Sun Yongning as the Minister of Rites.
Emperor Yuanfeng snorted coldly and asked Chen Dong to take the man away for personal interrogation, making sure to get to the bottom of everything.
Chen Dong immediately took the man away.
Only Emperor Yuanfeng, Su Qing and Madam He were left in the hall. Madam He stood there in a daze for a long time before she rubbed her face and felt a little warmer.
Su Qing didn't dare to say a word and knelt on the spot, not daring to move.
Emperor Yuanfeng called out to Madam He, "Look, did I not lie to you about this matter? I have done many wrong things in my life, but there is only one thing that I have always done right by your sister while she is still alive."
The prince's death happened later.
Mrs. He felt mixed emotions.
After so many years, she naturally still had hatred towards Emperor Yuanfeng. After all, no matter what, Lady He, her husband was implicated and died because of the affairs of the former crown prince.
But now, she suddenly felt that she couldn't hate him anymore.
Emperor Yuanfeng also had a difficult time.
She sighed deeply, feeling that although the throne was glorious, it was not something that ordinary people could sit on.
Then, Madam He knelt down in front of Emperor Yuanfeng, called him brother-in-law again, and looked at Emperor Yuanfeng seriously: "Yaoyao has also gone to Yunnan, brother-in-law, I am only worried about Yaoyao..."
"Did that girl really go there?" Although Emperor Yuanfeng had already guessed that Su Yao was going to Yunnan, after hearing confirmation from Madam He, he felt a different feeling in his heart. He couldn't help laughing: "Speaking of which, this girl is very similar to the queen when she was young. She always does whatever she wants, and she is fearless and never afraid."
When he mentioned Su Yao, his tone was full of obvious admiration. Seeing that Mrs. He was worried, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay, little sister, don't be so frightened. I know about this. I promise you that I will give you a perfect granddaughter. Don't scare yourself. Look at how you've been these days. I'm afraid you've lost a lot of weight."
Emperor Yuanfeng mentioned this matter in such a relaxed and natural tone, which showed that he really didn't care about it. Mrs. He didn't know what to feel for a moment. When she returned home and saw the whole family waiting at home anxiously, she felt a little guilty.
Aunt He was especially frightened. Mrs. He was suddenly summoned to the palace. She always felt that it was related to the events in Qingzhou. She was afraid that Mrs. He's idea would be used by others and the whole family would fall into an irreversible situation. When she saw Mrs. He return safe and sound, she couldn't help crying.
Seeing her usually self-sustaining daughter so frightened, Mrs. He pulled her up with some distress: "It's okay, everything has been explained clearly, everything will be fine from now on."
Aunt He looked at her mother in horror. When she saw her mother looking at her with understanding, her lips trembled: "You... you told His Majesty everything?"
"I don't need to tell you." Mrs. He sighed, "Before Yaoyao left, she had already told Commander Chen to keep an eye on us. Commander Chen had already gone to check on Aunt Liu, and then he found out everything and told His Majesty. This was also what Yaoyao meant. Yaoyao has always felt that being honest about some things is better than being self-righteous and clever. Now it seems that Yaoyao has her own unique insights on these major issues, and she made the right bet."
Whether it was Emperor Yuanfeng’s psychology or this matter, she bet right.
Aunt He did not have as many emotions as her mother. After she was sure that this fatal matter was really resolved, she cried with joy.
This matter had been weighing on her mind for a long time. After returning to the capital from Qingzhou, she did not even dare to feel sad about her husband's death, because this matter was like a sword hanging over her head, and she didn't know when it would fall. Now that this matter was finally resolved, she was extremely excited.
Mrs. Su, who had heard the news, also came over. Mrs. He and Mrs. Su had a lot to talk about. After Mrs. He told Mrs. Su the whole story, she patted Mrs. He's hand comfortingly and said, "This is the best. Your knot has been untied, the emperor doesn't blame you, and the spy planted in the capital by Yunnan has been found. It can be said that we have achieved three goals with one stone. We should all be happy."
Now that Emperor Yuanfeng has freed up his hands to deal with those people, wouldn't it be much easier for Xiao Heng and others who are far away in Yunnan
