Many people were destined to remain awake this night. The light was on in Pei Luoan's study, and under the light, Pei Luoan was quietly waiting for news.
"Your Highness, news has arrived." A eunuch pushed the door open from outside, looking hurried.
"How is it?" Pei Luoan supported himself on the desk with one hand and stood up.
"Everything is going according to plan, very good." The eunuch handed over the note in his hand. It was a message sent by carrier pigeon, and it was written very clearly.
Pei Luoan took it and saw the words "well done" on it. He felt relieved. His originally gentle face suddenly smiled and he sat down again with a big laugh.
The arrogant laughter was completely different from the gentleness he usually gave people, as if he was a different person.
The eunuch couldn't help but smile. His Highness had been worrying about this matter for a long time, and now he could finally put his mind at ease. He flattered her, "Your Highness, no one will threaten you anymore!"
This man has been a major concern for His Highness ever since he showed up. He follows the Crown Prince and sees it clearly. Whenever that man, that illegitimate prince, is mentioned, His Highness becomes furious. But now the problem has finally been resolved.
Pei Luoan finally stopped laughing, slowly curled his lips, leaned back, and looked involuntarily towards the roof.
And there is Pei Yusheng.
There was a sinister flash in his eyes. Pei Yusheng was now reorganizing the Ministry of Justice, the Supreme Court, the Jingzhao Yin and the Western Prison. These were originally the criminal offices, and they were in charge of handling cases.
Now that such a big thing has happened, not far outside the capital, it is destined to be all their responsibility. Then, is Pei Yusheng, who is in charge of reorganizing these government offices, really innocent
It is said that Pei Yusheng was extremely anxious, and upon receiving the order from his father, he immediately took up his post. He was so satisfied with reorganizing these government offices that he did not even have time to return to his own government office. He reprimanded several government offices and even went to the Western Prison.
Pei Yusheng really wanted to take over all these government offices. Did he really think that he was eyeing some vacant positions in these government offices
Concubine He and Prince Jing had always been behind him, and this illegitimate child was a sword hanging over his and his mother's heads, but the sword was gone.
The good days of Concubine He and Prince Jing are coming to an end
Although there is no way to trace what happened back then, coincidentally, Ji Youran's affair is clear.
It was a pity that Ji Youran died. He had protected her wholeheartedly at the beginning and wanted to get the letter from Mr. Xiao at the border from her.
Mr. Xiao is General Fuguo's man and can go to General Fuguo to lobby him. This was his idea at the beginning. As long as he thought that Mr. Xiao might lobby General Fuguo to his side, he would get the support of the two generals, and he was tempted.
Ling Anbo's strength alone has been weakened. If he is joined by a general who commands a large number of troops on the border, his position as the crown prince will be unbreakable.
If Ling Anbo had not found some letters I wrote to Mr. Xiao later, in which I expressed my intention to recruit General Fuguo as my subordinate, my father would not have been so angry that he wanted to depose me. I wanted to force these letters out of Ling Anbo, but Ling Anbo was not someone who would appreciate a favor.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but think of Ji Hanyue. She was really innocent. How could such a beautiful girl have such an inflexible father
If Ling Anbo had been more sensible and had given himself all his things by saying that Ji Hanyue was trying to assassinate him, the tragedy would not have happened, the East Palace and Ling Anbo's Mansion would still be a loving family, and Ling Anbo's Mansion would not have fallen to this point.
Ji Hanyue would not die in Linyuan Pavilion of the East Palace.
His heart ached violently, it really hurt, and his hands covered his chest involuntarily. That place still hurts. It was never his fault, it was Ling Anbo's fault. He made everything into a mess.
Now that I think about it, if Ji Hanyue hadn't died, I wouldn't have married Liu Jingyu. If Liu Jingyu hadn't married me, the position of Princess Jing wouldn't have been vacant. If the position of Princess Jing hadn't been vacant, Liu Lanxin wouldn't have been able to marry Pei Yusheng. It would have been possible for her to marry me as a concubine in the Eastern Palace.
Everything originated from the grand wedding in the East Palace.
That wedding ruined Ji Hanyue and also tortured herself
He took a few deep breaths and closed his eyes. The room became quiet except for his breathing which became a little heavier and then returned to normal.
The eunuch lowered his head and made no sound.
A long time passed, and the eunuch felt that his neck was stiff. Could it be that the Crown Prince had fallen asleep
I secretly looked up and saw that the prince had opened his eyes at some point and was looking straight up into the sky, as if there was someone there.
The expression on his face was unexpectedly gentle. At such a night and at such a time, it inexplicably made people feel miserable.
"Your Highness?" the eunuch spoke timidly.
Pei Luoan closed his eyes again, and when he opened them again, the phantom was gone. Just now, he almost thought he saw Ji Hanyue, and it was still Ji Hanyue.
"Let's go and see the Crown Princess." Pei Luoan stood up and walked out. At this time today, it would be better for him to accompany the Crown Princess who was overly sad. Such a big thing happened, which was a disaster for a woman. It was possible that a woman would be like this in grief and anger!
He was so absorbed in accompanying the Crown Princess that he had no energy to do anything else. All the troubles had nothing to do with him.
The eunuch hurriedly followed, and when he went out, he grasped a three-foot white silk, and then quickly caught up with the prince, even surpassing him.
The lights were still on in the Crown Princess's courtyard at this time, and Liu Jingyu was not asleep either. Thinking of her biological mother, how could she sleep at this time
When a person dies, everything is gone, and then one remembers how good one's mother was.
All the bad things in the past were beautified. When she thought about it now, she remembered how good Madam Liu was to her and how she wholeheartedly planned her marriage, from Prince Jing to the Eastern Palace.
Before, I thought I was going to marry Prince Jing Pei Yusheng, and I was quite satisfied with Pei Yusheng. Although Pei Yusheng was not the crown prince, who knew what would happen in the future
Concubine He must have had some means to be able to hold on to the position of favorite concubine for so many years. The fact that she was able to compete with the Empress shows how capable she is.
As for whether he could push his son to that position, it was actually very possible, especially since he had his father, Minister Liu, and the Duke of Qi's Mansion behind him.
But then, my mother said to slow down, things might change.
Then something happened in the Eastern Palace, and Ji Hanyue was injured too much and died. When the Queen Mother was selecting a new candidate, my mother nominated herself.
I originally thought that the Queen Mother would not be interested in me, after all, I had discussed marriage with King Jing before and it was about to be completed, but the Queen Mother chose me.
This made his mother very satisfied, and it was also a pleasant surprise for Liu Jingyu. Knowing that this matter was mostly planned by his mother, he was very grateful to her.
If she could marry the Crown Prince directly, why would she care about King Jing? After all, this was the right thing to do. With the support of the forces behind her, her position as Crown Prince was secure, and her own throne was also secure. It was a natural thing.
But what about now
Everything now is completely different from what I imagined at the beginning. Everything changed after I changed the person I married, and I am no longer the same person I used to be.
And my mother never thought that she was the descendant of the rebel king and was actually connected with the people in the northern border. How dare she still be in contact with them now
Does she not want to live, or does she not want to leave herself a way out
Even as the Crown Princess, she cannot survive such a serious crime.
For this reason, she could only report the matter to her father. She originally wanted her father to make the decision, but she didn't expect that her father would directly take her mother's life.
Thinking of this, she was overwhelmed with grief and silently burned paper money, crying as she did so. It was not that she wanted her mother's life, but her mother and father had been estranged for a long time, and her father had long since stopped wanting to tolerate her mother. Her mother wanted to bring everyone to an irretrievable state, so she could not blame her father for being cruel.
The father was also trying to protect everyone, to save everyone's life. The fault lies with the mother. It was the mother who was wrong. She was wrong since she was born.
Her mother could only be born to Madam Qi, not Princess Xian'an.
The door was pushed open, and a eunuch appeared in front of Liu Jingyu.
After stepping forward and paying his respects, he looked around Liu Jingyu and saw only a personal maid serving her.
The house was very quiet and there were no other outsiders.
"What instructions does Your Highness the Crown Prince have?" Liu Jingyu asked softly, wiping the marks from the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief.
"Your Highness, please use this." The eunuch chuckled and handed over the rolled white silk in his hand.
Liu Jingyu froze, almost unable to believe his eyes, all the blood in his body rushed to his head, "What is this?"
The maid at the side had already knelt down with a plop.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I'm just pretending. Now everyone says that Madam Liu was forced to death by the Junior Official of the Dali Temple. Such a big thing has happened, and if Your Majesty just cries a few times and no one hears, it won't be good after all, so..." The eunuch put down the rolled up white silk.
Three feet long, hanging down from the palm of his hand.
"Your Highness, everything will be fine. His Royal Highness is on his way to you. He is really worried about you and is afraid that something bad might happen to you."
So, she was asked to pretend to hang herself
Liu Jingyu raised her scarlet eyes and tears fell in strings. She felt sad for herself. She was the Crown Princess, a dignified Crown Princess, the Crown Prince who married her in a formal way and announced to the world. But now she had to do such a shameful thing.
She has always been the one who schemed against others to do such things, and now that it's her turn, she feels really sad.
The Crown Princess of a country has become just a tool, and a dispensable tool at that. Her life and death are no longer in her control.
If the prince really wanted to save his life, he would have died if he had come a little later.
If he still wants to keep me, how can I face other members of the royal family in the future after such an incident
Can such a princess really be the mother of the country
Not to mention the other meanings behind the prince's action, after this incident, can she keep her position as the crown princess
My mother's family had already lost power, and now
Her fingers trembled as she stretched them out, but she did not touch the white silk. Tears fell from her eyes, and she felt heartbroken. "Your Highness, are you really going to do this?"
