As soon as Li Ming finished speaking, the faces of all the maids changed color, but Princess Ning Xin still maintained a calm expression, neither surprised nor frightened.
"You have no basis and evidence and dare to drive a wedge between the brother and sister of the two His Highnesses. Your Highness, let me chop off his head with one sword!" a maid yelled angrily.
"Your Highness, this person has ulterior motives and must be killed immediately!" Another maid shouted coldly.
"Please step aside. I would like to hear if there are any alarmist things he has not said." Princess Ning Xin said with a faint smile.
"Your Highness..." The maids were all horrified. In their eyes, it seemed impossible for the second prince to frame their princess.
"Back off." Princess Ning Xin waved her long sleeves. Although the maids had no choice but to withdraw their swords, they stood around quietly.
"I told them to step back, but I didn't say I would spare you... Did you know that the second brother and I are biological siblings, born from the same mother, but the eldest brother, the prince, is more closely related to us siblings?
Why would you think of harming me?" Princess Ning Xin asked expressionlessly.
"Ah, you are not born from the same mother?" Lonely Ruyan was stunned.
"The eldest brother is the son of the late queen, the second brother and I are the children of the current noble concubine, and are the closest siblings. But you say that the second brother wants to frame me against the eldest brother, the crown prince. How can you make me believe it?" Princess Ning Xin sneered.
asked.
No good...how could it be this kind of relationship?
Li Ming's heart skipped a beat. He couldn't understand why the second prince could treat his own sister like this. Even if it was just to attack the prince, there was no need to do such a thing.
Could it be that for the sake of the throne, he would become so crazy?
"I want to ask you who ordered you to frame the second prince. If there is no evidence, I will definitely send you to the second brother and let him question you personally." Princess Ning Xin shouted coldly.
"Your Highness, please don't worry. Although the second prince is so close to you, he is very likely to do such a thing in order to fight for the throne. If you insist on evidence, you can secretly search the mansion and you will definitely find it.
The place where the bomb is hidden is the evidence that the second prince will use to frame you." Li Ming said.
"Okay, since you said so, I will let you give up completely. Chun'er Qiu'er, you two quickly dispatch your personal guards to search for the bombs in the palace." Princess Ning Xin ordered.
"As ordered." The two maids bowed and prepared to leave.
"Wait..." Li Ming quickly stopped him.
"What, are you guilty of being a thief?" Princess Ning Xin showed a hint of murderous intent on her face.
"Your Highness, if you want to find the bomb, you have to do it secretly. You must not alert the snake. If you find the bomb but alert the second prince, you will lose more than you gain. What's more, the second prince has already planted an spy in your house. You
If a search is carried out with great fanfare, the news will definitely be leaked." Li Ming quickly reminded.
"Seeing that what you said is so serious, do you know who the spy in my house is?" Princess Ning Xin asked coldly.
"I don't know that eyeliner, but I saw his appearance. He looked like an old man..." Li Ming carefully described the general body shape, age, and appearance of the princess's eyeliner he saw not long ago.
Tell it...
"This is the steward...how could he be His Highness the Second Prince's spy?" the maids exclaimed.
"Are you really sure it's him?" Princess Ning Xin finally felt a little moved.
Because the person Li Ming mentioned was actually the general manager of the Princess Mansion, almost one of the core managers of the entire Princess Mansion...
"I don't know who he is, I'm just telling the truth based on his appearance," Li Ming said.
"Forget it, Chun'er Qiu'er, there is no need to mobilize the personal guards. The two of you investigate quietly and go to the places he said. Remember not to alarm others, and go back as soon as possible." Princess Ning Xin said.
"As ordered." The two maids immediately rushed out of the pavilion and rushed towards the long corridor in the distance.
"You stay here for now, and we will know whether you are lying when they come back." Princess Ning Xin said lightly.
"Understood, we are not going anywhere now." Li Ming nodded, thinking about the current situation in his mind.
He really didn't expect that the second prince was actually the closest brother and sister to Princess Ning Xin, but he deliberately framed this beautiful princess. What did this mean?
By the way, if he wants to seize the throne, he must kill the prince, and he must not let others suspect him. The only target who can frame him and divert attention is Her Royal Highness Princess Ning Xin, who also has the right to inherit the throne.
Just like what the princess and the maids said just now, even if he exposed the second prince's conspiracy, even the princess and the maids couldn't believe that the second prince would be so cruel, and then others would not believe it even more.
Therefore, even if Princess Ningxin is a close relative, as long as the prince dies and the bomb is discovered in the princess's residence, no one will suspect that the second prince has done the mission, and Sheng has completely confirmed Her Royal Highness's conspiracy to seize the throne.
.
No one would doubt that the second prince would frame Princess Ning Xin...
"By the way, the second brother sent killers to wipe out the three major foundry families. What was the reason for this? Do you have any conclusive evidence?" Princess Ning Xin asked.
"Your Highness, regarding the massacre of three aristocratic families, the relationship is more complicated. It is just because the three aristocratic families have guarded the ruins of a craftsman god for generations. It is said that there is an ancient treasure that can pose a threat to the gods, so the second prince secretly investigated
In this matter, I want to get this divine sword. As for the evidence, His Royal Highness the Second Prince has an underground labyrinth hidden in his mansion outside the imperial city. All the killers and a huge arsenal are stationed in it. It seems that the Second Prince wants to seize it.
The throne has been secretly plotted for a long time." Li Ming said.
"Impossible, how could second brother do this?" Princess Ning Xin said with a frown.
"Your Highness Princess, I know it is difficult for you to accept such a thing, but the evidence is conclusive and you have to believe it." Li Ming sighed.
"Now that my father is seriously ill, if my second brother is really acting like this, then the entire empire will be in great danger..." Princess Ning Xin shook her head helplessly.
"Your Majesty is seriously ill? Your Majesty, Princess, how is your Majesty?" Li Ming asked in surprise.
It seems that all this is not groundless. His Majesty the Human Emperor is indeed facing an uncertain life or death. No wonder the second prince has already begun the urgent deployment!
If His Majesty the Human Emperor dies, the Second Prince's plan will start immediately. I wonder if there is still enough time?
"My father has been seriously ill and bedridden for a long time. His eldest brother has been responsible for all government affairs. As far as I know, my father's time is running out..." Princess Ning Xin showed an uneasy expression, as if she had already believed Li Ming.
judgment...
"Your Highness, to be disrespectful, I want to know how many days your Majesty has left. Judging from the current situation, this will be very important!" Li Ming asked quickly.
It is shocking news to learn that the Human Emperor is critically ill. If His Majesty dies, the Second Prince will definitely take action immediately!
Therefore, he must know how long the old emperor can persist, and then he can seize the time to complete the mission as soon as possible...
