Rong Jin was stunned all of a sudden.
The queen's slap was so severe that half of Rong Jin's cheeks became red and swollen.
Her palms were numb slightly, and her heart trembled when she saw Rong Jin's confused and hurt expression.
If she hadn't been forced to do so, how could she be willing to beat her beloved son
But-
"You have no business talking about this!"
The queen scolded angrily, then broke away from Rong Jin, knelt and walked forward, begging bitterly:
"Your Majesty, no matter how you punish me, I don't complain. But these things are really only my concubine's doing."
Emperor Jiawen's eyes were full of mockery.
"Didn't you always deny it before? Why do you admit it so simply now?"
It’s just that you won’t shed tears until you see the coffin, and you won’t look back until you hit the wall!
Seeing that all the evidence was now in front of her and she could no longer argue, she finally admitted it.
Moreover, he actually wanted to take over everything and focus all the sins on himself!
"Your cultivation talent is average. This bronze vat must not be prepared for you, right? How many people are there in this world who can make you put so much thought into it?"
As he spoke, Emperor Jiawen's eyes fell on Rong Jin.
Rong Jin shuddered.
Somehow, he felt guilty for no reason.
He was not stupid. He had already noticed something when he learned about the function of the bronze jar. Looking at the queen's reaction later, it would be a joke if he still couldn't guess who it was for.
Even if he knew nothing about it before, he shuddered to think that there were hundreds of corpses of practitioners hidden in this courtyard!
The queen was choked and speechless.
Emperor Jiawen closed his eyes.
"Bring the Queen and Rong Zhen back to the palace! They are not allowed to leave the palace without my permission! As for Rong Jin, go back to the Prince's Mansion! By the way! And Rong Qi! Let him stay well in Prince Ping's Mansion ! When this matter is thoroughly investigated, we will punish each one of them!"
After saying that, Emperor Jiawen waved his sleeves angrily, turned around and left!
Eunuch Min quickly followed, not even daring to say a word.
Chu Ning breathed a sigh of relief and patted Chu Liuyue's arm:
"Yue'er, you go back and have a good rest first."
Now, this matter has nothing to do with their father and daughter, but as the President of the Guards, he still has to follow His Majesty to continue to investigate.
Chu Liuyue nodded gently: "Dad, don't worry, Yue'er can take care of herself."
Chu Ning felt relieved and turned around and walked to Rong Zhen.
"Fourth Princess, please."
Rong Zhen glanced at the queen hesitantly: "Mother—"
"Get out! I don't have a daughter like you!"
The queen suddenly screamed and cursed!
Rong Zhen's already bloodless complexion became even paler.
Her lips moved, but in the end she said nothing and turned away.
When passing by Chu Liuyue, she still lowered her head and seemed not to notice Chu Liuyue's presence.
"Fourth Princess."
Chu Liuyue suddenly spoke and stopped her.
Rong Zhen suddenly stopped and looked up at her.
Seeing Chu Liuyue, Rong Zhen frowned subconsciously, showing disgust.
However, just when she was about to speak, for some reason, a flash of fear suddenly flashed through her heart.
Inexplicably, she swallowed back all the words in her throat.
Facing her series of subtle reactions, Chu Liuyue's eyes flashed slightly, and she had a vague guess in her heart.
She said nothing more and gave Chu Ning a reassuring smile.
Rong Zhen was frightened and left quickly.
On the other side, Rong Jiu was standing in front of the queen and Rong Jin, waiting for them quietly.
He seemed very patient and didn't say much, just stood aside and waited.
From time to time, they would glance at the two of them, which seemed to be quite fun.
No one knows that he has been waiting for this day for too long.
Now, it was not easy to see the Queen in such a miserable state, so she naturally wanted to seize the opportunity.
Rong Jin noticed his gaze and suddenly seemed to be ignited with anger in his heart:
"Rong Jiu! You did this on purpose, didn't you!? You just wanted to see our mother and son's jokes! Are you satisfied now!?"
Rong Jiu said calmly:
"Brother, what are you talking about? I'm just waiting to send you two back. My father has given the order, so I will naturally follow it."
Rong Jin clenched his fists:
"Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking! Isn't it just because of your despicable biological mother!? You have been grudged against us for more than a day or two! One day, I will definitely repay you twice as much!"
Rong Jiu's eyes were slightly cold, and a strong murderous intention filled the air!
"Prince, if you have this time, you should think carefully about how to get out of this dead situation, right?"
The queen's position cannot be saved, and Rong Jin is not much better.
This time, it will even affect the Si family!
You can't protect yourself, but you still want to take revenge
ridiculous.
Rong Jin almost gritted his back molars before finally suppressing the resentment in his heart.
"Concubine, let's go!"
They have to find another way!
Rong Jin supported the queen and walked in front. Rong Jiu paused and looked at Situ Xingchen:
"Princess Situ, are you coming together or "
Situ Xingchen's face was like a rigid mask, embarrassed and embarrassed.
She never imagined how things could develop to this point!
Wasn't everything fine before
How come the situation of the queen and the prince became precarious just after leaving the palace!
What should she do
"This princess will not accompany you for now."
Situ Xingchen said reluctantly, already regretting it in his heart.
If she had known this, she would never have made an engagement with Rong Jin!
The current situation is simply impossible to deal with!
"Isn't this not good? Princess Situ, you have just been engaged to His Highness the Crown Prince. Now that the Crown Prince is in trouble, you just leave like this. Isn't it equivalent to running away? Not only the Crown Prince, many people will be very disappointed, right?"
Chu Liuyue folded her arms and said lazily.
Situ Xingchen glanced at her, a flash of resentment quickly flashing in his eyes.
Chu Liuyue clearly did it on purpose!
"Still not. After all, this matter involves a lot. Although I am engaged to His Highness the Crown Prince, I am still an outsider after all. As the eldest princess of Xingluo Kingdom, it is really not appropriate to continue to get involved in this matter."
At this time, Situ Xingchen was still very particular about his words, and separated himself from the matter gently and deftly.
She seemed to have forgotten that it was because she testified that she had seen Chu Liuyue and Rong Zhen together that she encouraged the queen and Rong Jin to accuse Chu Liuyue in front of Emperor Jiawen.
Chu Liuyue nodded with a smile.
"What Princess Situ said makes sense. However, I originally thought that you and His Highness the Crown Prince must have loved each other for getting engaged so quickly. If you saw him in trouble, you would definitely come forward. It seems that it is me. Thinking too much.”
Situ Xingchen's expression became even more embarrassed.
Rong Jin, who was walking in front, suddenly reacted, turned around, rushed to Situ Xingchen and grabbed her hand.
"Yes! Xingchen! Only you can help me now! Ask your father to come forward, he will definitely be lenient!"
