Catching Monsters

Chapter 54 I personally performed the operation on him
When the officials in Prince Su's Mansion heard the words "receive the imperial edict", they all knelt on the ground with respect on their faces.

Feng Yu unfolded the imperial edict and read in a deep voice:
"The Emperor of Fengtian Chengyun decrees: Prince Su has passed away, and the prince's palace has colluded with evil people and committed crimes against the Great Zhou."

"I am very angry. I will demote Prince Su's son Xiao Jingyuan to a commoner and exile him to the frontier. I will choose another person from the royal family to inherit the throne."

After Feng Yu finished reading the imperial edict, he slowly handed it out: "Xiao Jingyuan, accept the edict."

Hearing the contents of the imperial edict, Xiao Jingyuan trembled all over, and hurriedly prostrated himself on the ground, saying loudly: "Your Majesty, I am innocent!"

He raised his head hastily, his eyes horrified, and looked at Feng Yu for help: "Sir Feng, Sir, you are a close minister to His Majesty, please help me."

"Everyone in Prince Su's Mansion is loyal to His Majesty. The three hundred years of inheritance cannot be cut off here."

Feng Yu said calmly: "Besides you, there are many other princes' bloodlines in Prince Su's Mansion."

Xiao Jingyuan's body trembled slightly: "All, all dead..."

Feng Yu was not surprised by this answer, as if he had known it for a long time. He said, "Don't worry, Prince. The bloodline of the Su Palace will not be cut off. His Majesty will choose a suitable person from the royal family to inherit the throne."

Xiao Jingyuan's eyes were filled with horror. As the crown prince, how could he not know what this meant?
The relationship between Prince Su's Mansion and the current Majesty is quite distant.

If you do this, Your Majesty will probably arrange for a royal family member who is closer to you to inherit the throne.

Xiao Jingyuan gritted his teeth and said ruthlessly: "This is a reduction of the vassal state. Your Majesty, aren't you afraid that the other princes will be disappointed by doing this?"

"I want to go to the capital, I want to see His Majesty!"

Feng Yu suddenly attacked with a palm without any warning.

All of Xiao Jingyuan's tendons and veins were instantly broken, and he collapsed to the ground like a puddle of mud.

"Sir."

"Master Feng, how dare you lay a hand on the prince?"

The many relatives of Prince Su's Mansion behind them hurriedly begged for mercy.

Feng Yu slowly put his hands behind his back and said, "Didn't you hear the imperial decree just now? He has been demoted to a commoner."

"Based on his rebellious remarks just now, it is not unjust for me to kill him. Besides, I only crippled his tendons and veins."

"Just stay still and someone will come to take you to the frontier soon."

"Your Majesty originally wanted to give you respect out of consideration for your ancestors, but it's a pity that you don't know what's good for you."

After saying this, Feng Yu handed the imperial edict to the old princess who was beside him with tears streaming down her face: "Don't cry, old princess. Please sort out the deeds and properties of your home and hand them over to the new prince when he comes."

The old princess is over fifty years old, but she takes good care of herself on weekdays, so her skin is fair and has few wrinkles.

She gritted her teeth and asked, "Sir Feng, the land deeds of my palace are all the savings of our ancestors over the years. They belong to Prince Su's palace..."

Feng Yu smiled and nodded repeatedly: "That's right, so the new Prince Su is here, you have to give everything to the new prince."

"Don't think about hiding some gold and silver. Your Majesty knows how much silver there is in the palace."

"If there is one ounce less of silver, His Majesty will be unhappy."

The old princess burst into tears and said, "What should we do then?"

"There are so many people in our palace..."

Feng Yu smiled and said, "This is not something your majesty should consider."

After saying this, Feng Yu waved his hand and turned to leave.

Only the people in the entire palace were left, looking at Xiao Jingyuan lying on the ground like mud, feeling confused and not knowing what to do.

In the Prince Su's Palace in Nanzhou Prefecture, which was almost all-powerful, a decree changed the world. The next morning, Nanman was inside.

"It's time for breakfast." Jiang Qiaoqiao went back and forth, carrying a lot of breakfast upstairs.

Nanmanju will prepare a lot of breakfast early in the morning and personally deliver it upstairs for the guests to enjoy.

However, Jiang Qiaoqiao was a greedy girl. Soon after dawn, she went downstairs happily and brought plates of breakfast upstairs.

"Take less, girl. We may not be able to finish it." Jiang Yun looked at the table full of food and hurriedly reminded Jiang Qiaoqiao.

Jiang Qiaoqiao giggled and said, "Brother, didn't you say that we can go home later?"

As she spoke, she took out a beautiful little bag from her waist and said, "We'll take some breakfast back later, and we can save rice and flour for two days."

This exquisite little bag is made of gold thread. Rich ladies in Beijing like to use it to carry rouge, powder, and some personal belongings.

This was also something Xu Suwen bought for her while shopping, and it cost a full ten taels of silver.

This girl actually used such a beautiful bag to pack some cakes. Seeing this, Xu Suwen couldn't help but smile and said, "If you like it, I'll send someone to deliver it to you every morning."

"No, no." Jiang Qiaoqiao hurriedly shook her head. She just wanted to save some money. If Xu Suwen sent someone to deliver it, she would probably have to spend more money.

Xu Xiaogang stretched his waist, sat down at the table, and ate breakfast: "Sister, now that we have completed this mission, it's almost time for us to return to the capital, right?"

After hearing this, Xu Suwen nodded slightly, but looked at Jiang Qiaoqiao with some reluctance. He wanted to ask Jiang Qiaoqiao if she was willing to go to the capital with him.

Suddenly, footsteps were heard outside the door.

dong dong dong.

"Who is it? Come in." Xu Suwen shouted towards the door.

The door opened, and a slightly plump middle-aged man dressed in brocade clothes entered the room.

"Eunuch Feng, you're here?" Xu Suwen saw the person coming and hurriedly stood up: "Has His Majesty's decree been issued?"

"Of course." Feng Yu walked into the room with a smile on his face, and his eyes quickly swept over Jiang Yun and Jiang Qiaoqiao.

His eyes were sharp, and just a glance at him made Jiang Yun feel a little uncomfortable.

Xu Xiaogang, who has always been carefree, was a little tense at this moment. He didn't dare to speak carelessly, and subconsciously covered his crotch with his hands.

However, he still politely said to Feng Yu: "Sir, please sit down and have something to eat."

"Yes." After Feng Yu sat down, his eyes slowly turned to Jiang Yun and Jiang Qiaoqiao.

Xu Suwen coughed and reminded Jiang Yun to leave: "Jiang Yun, didn't you say that something happened at home? Go back first."

Jiang Yun was slightly stunned, but she knew Xu Suwen's character. Since she asked her to leave, there must be a reason.

Jiang Yun quickly got up and put some cakes in his pocket.

Looking at Jiang Qiaoqiao who was stuffing cakes into her mouth, she said, "Girl, take some with you and let's go home and eat."

"Woo, woo, okay." Jiang Qiaoqiao swallowed the pastry in her mouth, and then put some more pastries into the exquisite little bag.

"I'm leaving now." Jiang Yun said, and then he led Jiang Qiaoqiao away quickly.

Feng Yu looked at Jiang Yun's departing back, and seemed quite interested. He asked, "Miss Xu, who is this person?"

"Just a local scholar." Xu Suwen answered casually, fearing that Feng Yu would be interested in Jiang Yun.

Feng Yu smiled faintly and said, "I think he is quite smart and has a pretty face. How about sending him to the palace to serve His Majesty? I will perform the operation on him myself..."
