The lord of the country came before the minister. He is a king. No matter how angry he is, he will try his best to suppress it, so as not to be seen by others. He calmed down and turned towards the minister who seemed to be standing upright, but his legs and feet were a little weak. Said.
"You immediately bring a letter to the monarch of that country tomorrow. How can the princess of our country be treated like this when she arrives in another country, and even die." After finishing speaking, she returned to the imperial chair again, without the previous scowl.
As the air pressure around him became lower and lower, the minister tried hard to stand firm, and prayed in his heart that the emperor would not use him as a punching bag. He was also flustered. It is indeed a great shame for the princess of his own country to perish in another country.
He is also a person who knows the inside story, knowing that the prince of that country killed the princess, what the emperor will do, he is also a little uncertain in his heart, the king's mind has never been guessed.
The minister listened to the voice in his ear, stabilized his expression, and responded with a "yes." The minister raised his head and glanced at the Lord of Beichen Kingdom, and said after deliberation: "I feel that I am writing this letter to the emperor of the Yang family now." Letters are not against us because we have no evidence in our hands."
Why didn't the Lord of Beichen Kingdom know that he had no evidence in his hands, but he couldn't swallow the anger in his mouth, the minister stepped forward and leaned into the ear of the Lord of Beichen Kingdom, and whispered: "The Eighth Prince is probably still hiding this matter from the Yang family. If the Emperor of the Yang Clan knows about it, he will definitely suppress this matter, Your Majesty, we must make a fuss about this matter so that the Emperor of the Yang Clan can't suppress it."
"Then how do we do this?" asked the head of Beichen Kingdom.
"The emperor just wants to see me." The minister smiled, but didn't say what he was going to do.
The next day, rumors spread in the capital, saying that the Eighth Prince of the Eighth Prince's Mansion had humiliated him because of the affair with Princess Heqin, held a grudge, and actually killed Princess Heqin.
This rumor became worse and worse as it spread, these people didn't care if it was true or not, as long as there was something, they would discuss it with each other, because the emperor was involved in this matter, and the government strictly prohibited discussion, but it was useless.
Fenghuang of the Seventh Prince's Mansion also heard about this incident, she knew that this incident was not done by Beili Pavilion, and there must be someone else who made the news. As for the results of Yang Tingfeng, whether it is pitiful, what does that have to do with her
It would be fine if Yang Tingfeng didn't know that the tonic that Concubine Shu Gui gave Yang Tingjing was poisonous, but Yang Tingfeng clearly knew it, and he not only acquiesced to Concubine Shu's behavior, but also asked Concubine Shu to give Yang Tingjing the dose of medicine If it is increased, Yang Tingjing's condition will be even worse. Out of pity for Yang Tingjing, the emperor will give more rights to Yang Tingjing's younger brother, Yang Tingfeng.
Fenghuang doesn't hate Yang Tingfeng, but he doesn't like him plotting against Yang Tingjing either.
As for the matter with the princess, it was entirely Yang Tingfeng's own trouble.
"Yinhuan, go and inform Chu Meng, tell Chu Meng to be careful of the people of Beichen Kingdom, and don't let them deal with Yang Tingfeng secretly." Fenghuang ordered quietly.
"Yes." Yinhuan replied and left the palace.
In the palace.
Finally, the truth came out from Concubine Shu's confidant. It turned out that Concubine Shu never wanted to harm Yang Tingfeng. As for why Yang Tingfeng's tonic was poisonous, it was because the medicine was originally for Yang Tingjing, but because Meng Yu misremembered which of the two tonics was from the Seventh Prince's Mansion and which was from the Eighth Prince's Mansion, and brought the wrong medicine.
"You said, isn't Concubine Shu's confidant who would rather die than submit, why did he say it?" The emperor asked with some doubts when he saw the confession presented by Concubine Shu.
The eunuch pursed his lips and said with a smile: "People who enter the Punishment Department will lose their skin even if they don't die. The old slave guesses that they probably can't stand the torture from the Punishment Department."
The emperor glanced at the eunuch and said, "That's what you said." After finishing speaking, the emperor frowned, as if he didn't know what he was thinking, and said after a while: "Go to Concubine Shu's bedroom and pass on my instructions, Concubine Shu Frame the heirs of the royal family, the crime is heinous, put him in prison, and wait to be punished."
"Yes, the old slave will go pass it on now, but your majesty, you have to listen to what Concubine Shu said before issuing this edict." The eunuch asked.
"No need, I just turned a blind eye to what she did. Now she has gone too far, and she should be taught a lesson." The emperor said expressionlessly.
"Yes, old slave, I'm going to pass it on now." The eunuch bent down and walked out slowly.
Concubine Shu couldn't believe that the emperor wanted to take her into prison. Her delicate makeup became distorted because of her struggle. She said in disbelief, "The emperor would not treat me like this. Success is a noble concubine. You can't treat me like this." Let's do it."
"Concubine Shu, how about you, listen to the old slave's advice and stop struggling. The emperor already knows about you poisoning the Seventh Prince." The eunuch looked at Concubine Shu with no expression, and said slowly. Noise, Concubine Shu reluctantly smiled, and said with a pale face: "What is the father-in-law saying, I don't understand."
"It doesn't matter if you don't understand, your confidant has already explained, why don't you go to the prison and ask your confidant?" The eunuch looked at Concubine Shu with a half-smile, "You think no one can pry her mouth open, don't you? Thinking that you can sit back and relax by controlling the lives of her family members, and don’t worry about her being betrayed, are you, empress, you are too naive."
"You... How do you know... Your Majesty, Your Majesty, does your Majesty also know?" Concubine Shu asked tremblingly.
The eunuch smiled contemptuously. If Beili Pavilion can't even find out this bit of news, then there is no need to mess around in the Tao
"Take it away." The eunuch said bluntly, after the words fell, two guards stepped forward to support Concubine Shu, but this time Concubine Shu did not struggle.
Shugui had just entered the prison for three days, the rumors in the capital about Yang Tingfeng killing Princess Heqin finally spread to the palace, the emperor was furious when he heard it, and immediately ordered Yang Tingfeng to enter the palace, Yang Yanfeng was summoned to the palace In the palace, anxiously waiting outside the palace to be summoned inside.
"Tell me, did you kill Princess Heqin!" The emperor asked with a sullen face.
"Father, father, son, son, no son." Yang Tingfeng quibbled.
"You still said no, it's spread in the capital now, you still say no?" The emperor obviously didn't believe it, Yang Tingfeng looked at the emperor with an aggrieved face and said: "It must have been fabricated by them to threaten me, father, Don't take their word for it."
"It's not whether I believe it or not, but whether the Lord of Beichen believes it or not, but obviously, the Lord of Beichen believes it." The emperor said coldly, looking at the letter he had just handed over in his hand: If the country is killed, then let the murderer pay for his life. Otherwise, the Beichen Kingdom will unite with the other four countries to invade Erguo with troops. I hope the emperor will think more carefully.
