When the news was sent back to the palace, the langhao pen in Yu Wen Fengning's hand snapped and was broken by him. A drop of ink fell directly on the memorial.
How could Zheng'er die?
His heart felt empty for a moment, and he immediately shouted: "Come here, let me investigate, and we must find the murderer. I will destroy his nine tribes, and I will crush his ancestors to ashes!"
His eyes were dark and violent, like a wild beast on the verge of rage.
He stood up and said: "Come here, prepare the car, I want to leave the palace!"
"Your Majesty, what are you going to do? Stop for the Ai family!" Tai Huang Nan Lingxue walked in from outside. Her sharp eyes fell on Yuwen Fengning's face.
"Mother, did you kill Zheng'er?" He reacted and asked angrily.
In this huge capital city, the only one who dares to assassinate the princess in the street is the queen mother.
"So what, can you still kill Ai Jia and avenge her? Your Majesty, look at what you look like now? Which is more important, a woman, or your throne?"
"Why did you kill Zheng'er? Why? You clearly know that I treat Zheng'er differently from other women." Yuwen Fengning said with a face of pain and despair.
The Emperor had a stern look on his face, walked up to him, raised his hand and slapped him across the face.
He angrily said: "You still have the nerve to ask the Ai family why they want to kill her? Don't the Ai family want to kill her and wait for her to destroy you? Your Majesty, the matter between you and her has been spread outside the palace. In order to keep you
, she must die!"
"These are just your words, Queen Mother. If Zheng'er lives, I have a hundred ways to change her appearance. Queen Mother, she is also the child you watched grow up. Why are you so vicious and insist on putting her to death?
"Yu Wen Fengning stared angrily with eyes as red as blood, filled with hatred.
His gaze made Nan Lingxue extremely frightened.
I am even more convinced that what she did was absolutely right. If Yuwen Fengzheng had not died, he would definitely harm the emperor in the future.
"It doesn't matter what you think about the Queen Mother, but you have to remember that the Queen Mother is doing everything for your own good!" Nan Lingxue firmly believed that she did the right thing.
Yuwen Fengning sneered, his expression full of disdain.
"Your self-righteousness can only move you. Mother, have you lost your mind? If you kill Zheng'er at this time, others can only blame me, thinking that I am killing people and silencing them!"
He slapped the emperor's case.
The moment he lowered his head, his eyes were still red.
Zheng'er may not be his favorite, but she accompanied him through the gray years of his youth. At that time, his father only had eyes for the fifth emperor brother, and it was Zheng'er who has been with him until today.
When he sat on the throne, Zheng'er played an important role.
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has prepared a way out for you. Zheng'er went to Yun's house today. After she came out of Yun's house, she went outside the city and stayed until sunset before returning to the city. So, you can definitely put this matter aside
Put it on the Yun family and use it to control Yun Muzhou! When the time comes, whether the Yun family has the Medicine King Jade or not will not be known until one test."
The Queen Mother's words immediately calmed down Yuwen Fengning.
Zheng'er's death was a foregone conclusion. If he could use this incident to gain greater benefits, he would naturally be willing to do so.
"Mother, since Zheng'er has left the city, many people must have seen it. I'm afraid this plan is inappropriate."
"What's wrong? You are the emperor. Who dares to doubt the results of your investigation? Your Majesty, when you are in a high position, you must have the courage to hold on to it! You are not reluctant to leave Yun Muzhou, are you? There is such a thing as a soft heart,
It’s a taboo in our royal family!”
Yuwen Fengning frowned and thought, and quickly made the most correct choice for him.
"Mother, I understand. Please let me think about it again!"
"Without further delay, Your Majesty, you must make a decision as soon as possible. Don't worry about Zheng'er's funeral. The Queen Mother will take care of it for you." After finishing speaking, the Queen Mother walked out of the Imperial Study Room.
A ruthless look appeared in Yuwen Fengning's eyes. When the Queen Mother left, he immediately called for the commander of the imperial army.
"Go and investigate the assassination of the princess. Focus on finding out who the princess had contact with before she was assassinated. Bring all these people back and I will interrogate them personally."
"Yes, my subordinates are resigning." The commander left quickly.
…
Apricot bamboo forest.
As soon as Yun Muzhou heard about the assassination of the tenth princess, his alarm immediately went off. How could someone kill the tenth princess? Who did it?
This matter cannot be Fei Xuan!
But besides him, who else could it be?
She called Jiang Li and asked him to ask Han You immediately if he knew who killed the tenth princess.
Just after leaving, Man Wujue suddenly came to Yun Mansion.
Behind him followed a group of boys carrying poles, with fine sandalwood boxes hung on both ends of the poles.
From a visual inspection, there were at least twenty people.
"Man Wujue, what are you doing?" Chanyi was stunned and pointed at the boy.
Manwujue's red phoenix eyes raised: "Where is your eldest lady? I want to see her."
Chanyi didn't know what he was going to do, but when he came, the eldest lady would definitely meet him. She went into the room and reported to Yun Muzhou: "Miss, hurry up and have a look. Man Wujue has brought a lot of people with him.
I came here with something and didn’t know what to do.”
Yun Muzhou hurriedly walked out.
She looked at Man Wujue and others in surprise, and asked, "What are you doing? Are you giving me a gift? You don't need to use such a good box to give gifts, right?"
"It's the betrothal gift!" A spring breeze-like smile bloomed on Man Wujue's face.
"Yun Muzhou, I want to marry into your Yun family, are you willing? These are the gifts I specially gave you for fear of humiliating you!" He stretched out his slender hand and pointed at the sandalwood box carried by the boys.
.
What other girls have, his Xiao Yuner must also have.
Just a lot more.
Yun Muzhou was stunned and rolled his eyes at him angrily: "Man Wujue, don't be ridiculous. I..."
"Xiao Yun'er, don't you know that the tenth princess is dead?" Man Wujue interrupted her.
"I know." Yun Muzhou was stunned, wondering what the two things were related to. How could she not know about such a big thing as the death of the tenth princess?
Just listen to Man Wujue say: "Don't be too busy rejecting me. I really want to marry into your Yun family and protect you all your life. Yun Muzhou, Fei Xuan and you are not from the same place. Although you have known him for so long, but
I'm afraid you don't even know his true identity."
"What is his identity?" Yun Muzhou felt curious.
Man Wujue grinned and sneered, but was unwilling to say anything more.
"You should wait for him to tell you personally! Yun Muzhou, whether you agree or not, since I brought these things here, there is no reason to carry them back."
The coolness is long overdue.
She gasped for air and looked at Man Wujue complainingly.
"Master, you came to propose marriage, why didn't you tell your subordinates? I almost missed it."
After Wei Liang finished speaking, she came over to hold Yun Muzhou's arm, and leaned into her ear affectionately to speak.
