Yan Jingxuan's heart skipped a beat when he heard this voice. He looked up and saw Xiao Chengyi walking in aggressively.
He calmly put the chopsticks in his hands on the table and asked with a smile: "Why didn't you tell me that you were coming to Beijing? I could pick you up."
Xiao Chengyi said in an angry voice: "Tell me, why did you issue that edict? Do you know that the capital is already in chaos now?"
Yan Jingxuan touched his nose with a guilty conscience and said, "Han Qiancheng asked people to spread rumors about my life experience in the city, and also described the plague in Qingyuan County as the emperor's lack of morality.
The people's hearts have been disturbed by him, I just want to fulfill his wishes and see what he is going to do?"
He always felt that Han Qiancheng must have some motive for doing this, so he issued an edict without discussing it with Xiao Chengyi, making it public that he was not the son of the late emperor.
Xiao Chengyi glanced at him and said: "I think you don't want to be the emperor for even a day, and you wish you could dump this mess on me as soon as possible.
Why do you think Chu Chu is back, so your heart is no longer with Jiangshan Sheji?"
Yan Jingxuan's head was pounding after hearing this, and he hurriedly said: "I really didn't mean that, I just thought that my identity would be revealed to the world sooner or later.
If his life experience is unclear and the people are uneasy, the troubles that should arise will still happen.
Don't you want to clear your father's wrongdoing when you return to Beijing this time? Furthermore, even if I didn't issue that edict, wouldn't it cause turmoil if you came back with this face?"
You must know that Xiao Chengyi is a "dead man" in Beichen, and his appearance is bound to cause a lot of trouble.
Xiao Chengyi snorted: "You are eloquent. You can clean up the mess you made yourself."
Yan Jingxuan suddenly became anxious after hearing this: "Don't." He winked at Xiao Yunchu and asked her to help him speak.
Xiao Yunchu couldn't stand it anymore, so he reached out and poured a cup of tea and handed it to Xiao Chengyi and said: "Cousin, please calm down, take a sip of tea first and then scold him slowly."
Yan Jingxuan: "..."
Why is this different from what you imagined?
Mu Yun'an on the side covered his mouth, holding back a smile and echoed: "Chu Chu is right. Brother Yi needs a sip of tea to moisten his throat first, and then it's not too late to scold him."
Yan Jingxuan covered his chest and looked at Ye Xiuchen with pleading eyes, hoping that he would show mercy. Unexpectedly, Ye Xiuchen turned his head away and pretended not to see it.
Yan Jingxuan was deeply hit. He lowered his head in despair and resigned himself to his fate.
Xiao Chengyi was very considerate to Xiao Yunchu. He took a sip of tea and said with a cold face: "Tell me, what should we do now?
When I came, the courtiers were demonstrating in front of the palace gate, asking you to commit suicide to apologize."
Yan Jingxuan was stunned for a moment. He blinked and asked, "Didn't they ask me to abdicate? Why do they still want my life?"
Xiao Chengyi sneered: "Rebellious ministers and traitors, if I don't kill you, how can I respect the king and succeed to the throne? You are really naive."
Yan Jingxuan was anxious. Although he was the one who caused the trouble, he really didn't know that things would turn out like this.
He thought he could take advantage of this opportunity to return the throne to Xiao Chengyi in a fair and just manner, but who would have thought that the court officials would force him to commit suicide?
It's really too much.
He looked at Xiao Chengyi and asked, "Don't you have any countermeasures?"
Xiao Chengyi said: "When I came back, I received a letter from Chen Qingxue. She said that Shen Zhixu had been taken away, and the person who took him away was most likely Han Qianyu."
Yan Jingxuan was shocked: "Han Qianyu? How is this possible?"
Xiao Chengyi said: "The evil doctor is dead. He was poisoned to death. The person who poisoned him was a woman. That person killed the evil doctor and took away all the treasures from him.
