After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields Chapter 755

Chapter 755 Wang Jin has returned to Beijing

Before the autumn rain comes.

The Northern Barbarian envoy, who experienced an assassination in the prosperous Kyoto, finally returned to the grassland with a full reward from the emperor and queen.

But the tense political atmosphere in Kyoto has just begun to stir.

It started to rain every day in the capital, and the water in the moat under Ziwei Palace swelled, threatening to overflow onto the streets.

As a result, the shops on both sides of the river were closed.

Even the boatmen crossing the river stopped.

At the gate of Ziwei Palace, only the guards guarding the river patrolled back and forth in the rain.

Because of the heavy rain, people could not go out of their homes, and the capital city, which was always noisy all year round, was rarely deserted for a few days.

On the quiet street, a carriage drove slowly in the rain.

After crossing the bridge, we stopped for a moment under the gate of Ziwei Palace, and then continued driving into the palace gate.

This is the eldest princess's car.

Only the eldest princess can drive into the palace gate.

The guards in the palace looked at each other in shock when they saw the princess's car driving straight towards the harem without stopping.

“His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has just arrived, and the eldest princess has come immediately behind. Something big is going to happen.” Someone whispered.

The others nodded in agreement, with a bit of curiosity in their eyes, but more of they were still hesitant.

Because for little people like them, even a small fight between nobles can be fatal.

At this time, everyone in the palace was paying attention to the Qihua Palace.

The palace people sang: "The eldest princess asks to see you!"

In the palace, His Royal Highness the Prince and the Queen seemed to have had an argument. One's eyes were red, and the other's face was full of anger.

The palace attendants on the left and right were kneeling on the ground, trembling.

Fifteen minutes ago.

The prince received the news he least wanted to hear—Wang Jin had returned to Beijing and quietly went to the palace to see him.

Wang Jin brought back a lot of evidence, all of which pointed to King Feng's intention to rebel.

The emperor was shocked at first, and then couldn't believe it.

Finally, I had to let go of the softness in my heart towards my relatives, and on the grounds that the Dongyue Royal Family offered sacrifices to their ancestors, they invited King Feng to come to the capital to preside over the sacrifices.

As soon as the edict was issued, all the officials in Kyoto were in an uproar.

If King Feng comes to Beijing, Wang Jin has enough evidence and he will not be able to protect himself.

If King Kefeng did not come, he would have refused to obey the order, and would end up with a whole family being punished.

If you were King Feng, would you come?

Anyone who knows anything about the emperor knows that the emperor wants to force King Feng to rebel.

After all, he is a clan prince and the emperor's half-brother. If there is no strong enough accusation, King Feng will be sentenced to death. The other clan princes and kings will definitely be dissatisfied.

So, this crime can only be attributed to King Feng's rebellion.

As for whether King Feng really wants to rebel, it doesn't matter at all.

The prince had a close relationship with Uncle Wang since childhood. When he learned of the emperor's edict, he hurriedly went to the palace to plead for mercy.

But he himself could not be saved, and the emperor was nowhere to be seen.

As a last resort, the prince ran to Qihua Palace again, hoping to get support from his mother.

For a man who once sent a dead soldier to assassinate him, could Xu Wenqing let go of this great opportunity for revenge?

Of course she won't.

The mother and son had nothing to say, and the prince contradicted the queen, which led to the current scene.

“Let the eldest princess come in.”

Xu Wenqing did not need to avoid suspicion and directly asked the palace officials to let her daughter in. The eldest princess entered the palace and saw the frustrated prince, but she was not as contemptuous as usual.

She knew what had just happened without even thinking about it.

Her stupid brother, relying on his parents' favor, forgot to use his brain to think.

The family affection he cared about was not worth mentioning in front of the imperial power!

The eldest princess walked straight past the prince, came to the queen, and bowed.

“Queen Mother, the assassination in the arena has been resolved, and I am here to report it.”

The eldest princess looked businesslike, but when she stood up and raised her head, she took a special look at the queen.

She wanted to see if the woman in front of her, whom she was proud of, would show any trace of guilt.

However, no.

As soon as the prince heard that Gong Liangliao had been assassinated, he ignored the disappointment of being scolded by his mother and quickly asked:

"Who did it? Who wanted to kill Mr. Xiang? Has the person behind the scenes been caught? Where is he?"

In an instant, the eldest princess and the queen both looked towards him.

There was silence in the palace, and the disappointment in the queen's eyes was thought-provoking.

The eldest princess looked at the prince's innocent and puzzled expression, and a sense of malice arose in her heart for no apparent reason.

She really wanted to see how he would react when he found out that the person behind the assassination of the husband he cared about most was his mother whom he respected the most.

Disbelief, despair, pain?

She really wanted to see the prince, a person who retained an innocent heart, completely turn into a black man.

Otherwise, why is she just a child, yet she has to bear these dark dangers that she shouldn't have to bear!

And the prince, like a man who never grows up, has such clear eyes.

King Feng wanted to rebel, but he still felt that he was his uncle who had been good to him after all, which was ridiculous!

It's not that the prince can't feel the malice coming from his eldest sister, but what he is most concerned about right now is the person behind the injury to the teacher.

A pair of reddish eyes stared at the eldest princess, waiting for an answer.

The eldest princess was about to tell him the truth when the queen suddenly raised her hand and waved.

“Prince, please step aside.”

The prince was stunned.

The eldest princess looked at her mother in disbelief, so she couldn't bear to hurt your precious son?

“Aunt Jade, send the prince out.” The queen ordered directly.

No one dares to resist this mother.

Although the prince was anxious to know the answer, he had to follow Aunt Yu to leave the Qihua Palace.

As soon as the others left, the eldest princess glared at the queen with dissatisfaction, "Why don't you let him know what you dare to do?"

The queen narrowed her eyes dangerously, "Baili Nihuang, why do you think I handed this matter over to you to investigate?"

Of course the eldest princess knows, even if she calculates it accurately, even if she knows the truth, she will not tell it.

Even now everyone thinks she is going to kill Gong Liangliao.

But she is also willing to take the blame in order to maintain her mother's lenient image.

“Your brother, until just now I didn't suspect that you were the one responsible for killing Gong Liangliao,” the queen reminded.

The eldest princess laughed angrily, "He's so stupid!"

“But I don't understand, why did you do this, Queen Mother?”

Obviously she has disabled Gong Liangliao's legs, making him far away from the political center and becoming an insignificant commoner.

Although Gong Liangliao was a hateful person, he had sincerely taught her and the prince that they should just let him die peacefully.

The queen sneered, sat back on the throne, and looked at her daughter condescendingly:

"Just because you are soft-hearted, I have to take action. If you don't even have this means, I don't think you should even think about the position of the princess."

The eldest princess choked, but she still subconsciously explained: "But there is no need for this."

"Isn't it necessary?" the queen reminded coldly: "Just because you didn't kill him directly at the beginning, now I have to solve the problem of Prince Feng, so that I can completely cut off the prince's right and left arm and let you become the princess. ”
