Chapter 333
The eldest princess suddenly slapped the table and stood up. She pointed at Shen Ruzhou with a livid face and said sternly: "Shen Ruzhou, this is the study room. You don't have to mess around. It doesn't matter how big the problem is, you have the nerve to violate the court's laws."
"Besides, I am also doing this for your own good. If you really make a mistake, I will tell you for you so that I can teach you how to turn back from your lost ways!"
Shen Ruzhou looked directly at Xiao Jinxi with cold eyes. Just as he was about to speak, Xiao Chenyan grabbed his sleeve and said, "Shen Ruzhou, apologize to the emperor!"
"Why should I..."
"enough!"
Emperor Yong'an slammed the table impatiently and scanned the people in the room with his sharp eyes, "Isn't it embarrassing enough? You must make it known to everyone!"
Seeing Emperor Yong'an's anger, everyone immediately lowered their heads and did not dare to express their anger.
On the other hand, Beixiu Banquet was not afraid of Emperor Yong'an's wrath. Shen Ran said, "Your Majesty, Princess Jianing made such a fuss yesterday. You didn't punish her. There was already a lot of discussion in the court."
"Today, the eldest princess is making trouble again, which is really damaging to the royal family's face. If she continues not to be punished, I'm afraid it will damage the royal majesty."
The eldest princess always knew the weight of Beixiu Yan's words, and was afraid of being punished. She knelt down and begged, "Father, my daughter only came to report because she was afraid that Shen Ruzhou had evil intentions. She definitely did not want to taint someone's innocence. Please, Father." Mingjian!"
Emperor Yong'an's dark eyes were filled with dark light, and he shot straight at the eldest princess, "Xiao Jinxi, you don't know right from wrong, and you are lax in educating your daughter. You will punish her ten times to copy her virtues, as a warning to others!"
Shen Ruzhou was very dissatisfied with such a light punishment, but that was all he had to say. If he forced Emperor Yong'an any further, he was afraid that he would be the one to suffer, so he had to give up.
Emperor Yong'an waved his hand tiredly, "I'm tired, you all can step back."
As soon as these words came out, everyone bowed and left knowingly.
After leaving the study room, Shen Ruzhou wanted to express his gratitude to Beixiu Banquet, but before he could take a step out, he was dragged away by Xiao Chenyan.
By the time she reacted, she had already been put into the carriage.
Bei Xiuyan looked at the two people's leaving figures, his deep eyes shot out a terrifying cold light. Qin Ming helped him put on his cloak from behind, and heard Bei Xiuyan's deep voice coming from above,
"How's your investigation going with Shen Ruzhou's maid?"
……
In Prince Yu's Mansion, the servants knelt on the ground in the courtyard. The tables and chairs in the main hall were crooked, and there were fragments of tea cups and vases everywhere. The ground was in a mess.
King Yu almost smashed everything inside, but his anger did not subside at all.
The anger in his heart was overwhelming. Now Xiao Chenyan was gaining momentum and the situation in the court was changing rapidly, but he was banned in the house for a full month!
Whatever happened outside, he had no time to respond. If this continued, wouldn't he be beaten by Xiao Chenyan until he was unable to fight back? !
He gritted his teeth with hatred, "Xiao Chenyan!"
"Your Highness, don't worry."
A cold and calm voice sounded behind him. Prince Yu turned his eyes and snorted, "What? Mr. Shangguan has a new plan?"
Starting with Shen Ruzhou, it was Shangguan Yu's idea to bring out Xiao Chenyan's grain harvesting. In the end, instead of overthrowing Xiao Chenyan, he was grounded!
Shangguan Yu had been in Prince Yu's Mansion for many years, so he naturally knew that Prince Yu had put all the blame for the failure of his plan on him.
"Your Majesty, the matter is not at the end yet. King Wu may not be able to win. Your Majesty, you must not be discouraged."
Shangguan Yu got straight to the point, "In my opinion, the situation is now very unfavorable for the prince, but the matter is not at the end yet, and King Wucheng may not be able to win. How about we take a step to drain the fire and end it all at once."
"A hundred and all?" Prince Yu frowned deeply, "You mean, kill Xiao Chenyan?"
Shangguan Yu laughed sinisterly, "As long as King Wu Cheng dies, the throne will be in the prince's possession."
King Yu's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he immediately hesitated, "But if he dies, others will doubt me."
Shangguan Yu turned the Tai Chi stone in his hand and explained the strategy in detail.
"I heard that King Wu Cheng and his wife were not in harmony, and the princess proposed to reconcile many times without success. When the time comes, as long as we publicize this, then the death of King Wu Cheng will only be Shen Ruzhou's murder of her husband, and no one will suspect the prince. On the head."
King Yu pursed his thin lips tightly and paced around the room, undecided.
Seeing his hesitation, Shangguan Yu stopped moving his hands and added another irritation.
"My lord, wealth has always been gained through danger. You have been banned for a month this time, which is enough time for Xiao Chenyan to win over the courtiers, dismantle your power, and trick the emperor into making him the crown prince."
Hearing the word "Prince", King Yu's eyes darkened, and he immediately made up his mind, "No one is poisonous and no husband, this time I will definitely send Xiao Chenyan to see the King of Hell!"
Outside the door, Mu Wanqing's breath was stagnant. The housekeeper had originally asked her to come and calm him down when he saw King Yu getting angry in the main hall, but she didn't expect to hear the conversation between King Yu and Guan Yu.
She glanced at the servants next to her with sharp eyes and warned: "If you dare to leak a single word about today's events, you will all die!"
The servants were trembling with fear and nodded in agreement.
Mu Wanqing raised her slender hand, knocked gently on the door, and asked softly: "Your Majesty, Wanqing has come in."
Shangguan Yu frowned and looked at King Yu with an inquiring gaze, but King Yu was very calm.
He regained his composure and said, "The princess has someone in Prince Wucheng's palace. This matter can be left to her."
When Shangguan Yu heard this, he immediately bowed to Mu Wanqing, "Your Majesty is so wise that he actually asked the Princess to place a secret agent in Prince Wucheng's Mansion early. This will make things easier for us."
The depression in King Yu's heart dissipated and he stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around Mu Wanqing's soft waist and hugged her onto his lap.
Upon seeing this, Shangguan Yu stood up and left with great discernment.
Mu Wanqing twisted her slender waist, leaned on Prince Yu's shoulder, and breathed like orchid, "Your Majesty, since Wanqing married you, she intends to serve the Prince wholeheartedly and advance and retreat with the Prince."
"You can tell Wanqing directly if you have any plans. Wanqing will do her best to help the prince succeed."
Her charming voice fell in the ears, as if a small hand was scratching the heart, making people indescribably fascinated.
Prince Yu buried his head in Mu Wanqing's arms and took a deep breath, "Wanqing, how could I not know your feelings for me? This matter is so important that I can only leave it to you. This king can rest assured."
With that said, he took out a small celadon medicine bottle that Shangguan Yu had just given him and handed it to Mu Wanqing.
"This is the chronic poison that Shangguan Yu found. If you let your people poison Xiao Chenyan's food, he will die in less than a month, and it will be difficult for the gods to save him."
Although he had just heard a general idea outside the door, with the poison in his hand, Mu Wanqing still pretended to be frightened, with a panicked expression and timid eyes.
Prince Yu softened his heart for a moment. It was too difficult for Mu Wanqing, a gentle and gentle woman like her, to do such a cruel thing.
He immediately hugged her tightly in a comforting manner, gently touched her waterfall of green hair, rubbed her ears and temples, "Wanqing, as long as Xiao Chenyan is eliminated, the throne will belong to me."
"At that time, you will be the queen, and your son will be the crown prince. Everything I own will belong to this child!"
"Your Majesty, you are so kind to Wanqing."
Mu Wanqing's eyes sparkled with tears, and she was deeply attracted by the scene described by King Yu. She hooked her arms around King Yu's neck and took the initiative to put on her red lips.
