Reborn Totalitarian Queen

Chapter 824 Bite back and catch everything? (4)
Princess Wenxin's role is no longer significant, and the emperor doesn't bother with her affairs at all.

"Pick up the key points." What's all this mess?the emperor scolded.

"Your majesty—" Jingzhao Mansion raised his sleeves and wiped his sweat with embarrassment, "That's how it happened. Princess Wenxin's master and servant disappeared. According to the two guards of the Imperial Forest Army, they thought the princess was kidnapped by someone." They searched the vicinity for midnight, but there was no sign of kidnapping around, and they couldn't find any clues. They lost the princess again. In the woods, they looted the belongings in Princess Wenxin's carriage and went to their own lives. The two were driven there early in the morning because they lost their way at night and wandered back to the place where the incident happened. The yamen servant bumped into him."

After all, she is still a warm princess!
The emperor put his hand on his forehead and kept his eyes closed. Then he asked patiently, "Have you sent someone to look for it? Or haven't you looked for Wenxin?"

"Princess Wenxin is after all Peng Ze's guest in our court. How can I be negligent, and then I sent a large number of yamen servants to look around, but found nothing." Jingzhao Mansion Yin shook his head helplessly.

His eyes flickered, and when he was about to continue to describe the fire outside the city, Cheng Yu suddenly sneered, "Is it really good for Mr. Fuyin to avoid the important ones like this? As far as I know, someone went to Xuanwang's mansion an hour ago Reported to your Jingzhao Mansion Yamen, His Royal Highness Xuan Wang was assassinated, counting from the time, it should have been reported to your court before you left the Yamen, my lord. His Highness is the current prince, with a prominent status, his safety, Isn't it as important as a mere princess from another country? Mr. Fu Yin, you didn't mention it? If you don't take His Highness Xuan Wang too seriously, then there is something else hidden?"

Yin Zhan was assassinated?
The emperor's drowsy mind instantly sobered up.

He opened his eyes, sat up straight slowly, and gave Jingzhao Fuyin a questioning look, "King Xuan? What about others?"

Although he was sure that Yin Zhan hadn't come when he came out, he still couldn't help but glance over everyone.

He didn't ask this question for Cheng Yu, so Cheng Yu just pretended not to hear it, and just stared at Jingzhao Fu Yin with cold and mocking eyes.

Mr. Jingzhao's forehead began to sweat again, but he had to avoid the topic and said, "Why did Miss Cheng say that? There was a case that was going to be interrogated today, but something happened to the prisoner in the dungeon." Unexpectedly, I just passed by. Did the people from Prince Xuan’s Mansion go to the yamen to report the case? That’s probably because I went directly to the palace after coming out of the dungeon, so I missed it, and I really don’t know what happened to His Highness.”

As he spoke, he also saw the eagerness in the emperor's eyes, so he asked again with concern, "You said His Royal Highness Xuan Wang was assassinated? Then I don't know if His Highness is injured?"

Cheng Yu snorted coldly, unable to deny it.

The emperor was very concerned about Yin Zhan's affairs, but he didn't want to show it too clearly, so his face became more and more ugly.

The atmosphere in this hall has been suppressed to the extreme, Cheng Yu didn't care, but Princess Nanping couldn't bear it anymore, tears kept rolling in her eyes, at this moment she burst into tears, and said extremely aggrieved: "Father, what do you want?" Make the decision for your son!"

The emperor looked at this unremarkable daughter crying pear blossoms with rain, as if she had been greatly wronged, and was at a loss for a while, "What's the matter with you?"

"It's Jin'an!" Princess Nanping wiped away her tears, Huo raised her finger and pointed at Princess Jin'an who was tied beside her.

The emperor looked in the direction of her finger, and his brows frowned even tighter.

The more Princess Nanping thought about it, the more wronged she became, and she complained like a bean: "The emperor's uncle was assassinated by Jin An. She didn't know what happened. She not only led the emperor out of the palace with excuses, but also hijacked Beichuan County Lord, fortunately, Cheng Yu is here to help snatch Princess Beichuan out of her hands, or else—or she will really use Princess Beichuan to force the emperor to submit."

The disagreement between Yin Zhan and the emperor was vaguely known to Princess Nanping, but she was still immersed in the fear of the rest of her life after the catastrophe, so she only cared about telling the truth and couldn't care about anything else.

Princess Nanping's accusation was fierce and full of resentment.

But it was strange that Princess Jin'an was able to maintain a calm attitude, and listened without changing his face from beginning to end, not only did not show any expression of fear, nor was he in a hurry to defend himself.

The emperor frowned at her, examining her eyes.

Princess Nanping next to her was still weeping in grievance.

"Do you need an explanation?" The emperor stared at Princess Jin'an twice, and finally spoke.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for still being willing to give Jin'an a chance to speak." Princess Jin'an had a sincere attitude and kowtowed to him respectfully.

"What else do you have to say? You ordered people to hold Princess Beichuan hostage, and you personally led people to assassinate the emperor's uncle, all of which are obvious to all!" Princess Nanping said angrily.

The princess of Jin'an did not change his face.

The emperor scolded angrily: "Shut up first and listen to her finish!"

When Princess Nanping was reprimanded by him, her heart trembled and she immediately lost her voice.

Cheng Yu watched coldly, but at this moment, her heart was no longer optimistic——

The emperor didn't want to see Yin Zhan, so his position on this matter could easily be deviated.Moreover, Princess Jin'an is not chaotic in the face of danger, and coupled with Concubine Yuan Gui's previous actions to fuel the flames, she can vaguely judge that this step may be a bit "unexpected", and it is also within the consideration of Princess Jin'an and others in advance , and in response to this situation, a countermeasure has also been created.

Princess Jin'an knelt there with her back straight, but with an awe-inspiring expression on her face, she said: "Your Majesty, what Princess Nanping said is not wrong. I did disrespect the uncle of the emperor. Your majesty, you must hold me accountable for the crime." , Jin An didn't dare to shirk it, but——that happened for a reason."

Princess Jin'an's attitude was neither humble nor overbearing. As he spoke, he glanced sideways at the Jingzhao Fuyin who was kneeling in front of him and said, "Isn't the Fuyin looking for Princess Wenxin's whereabouts? I admit that I was rude to the emperor, But my original intention of that matter was not aimed at the emperor himself. Princess Nanping said that I lured the emperor out of the palace. Song Chuxi. And if I'm not mistaken—”

Hearing what she said, Cheng Yu's heart suddenly jumped up.

In the dark, she already understood Princess Jin'an's plan, and——

I felt an unprecedented sense of crisis.

Princess Jin'an's face was condensed and her tone was calm. After a pause, she continued: "Princess Wenxin should not have disappeared because of being kidnapped. She should have escaped by herself, so I gave her this idea and helped her." The one who got out of trouble is Song Chuxi!"
