Taking the initiative to remarry! The crazy prince is obsessed with me
Chapter 64: If you can clear my name, it won't be a pity if you die
Madam Qi didn't understand what was happening in the court. Seeing Marquis Qi frowning, she became anxious too.
Qi Xun was somewhat panicked, remembering what his father said that day that King Yao might want him to take the blame. With shaking hands, he touched Zhilan's sleeve and whispered, "Zhilan, think of a solution quickly!"
Gu Zhilan patted Qi Xun's hand, subconsciously glanced at Lord Qi, and blurted out: "Of course it should be..."
Halfway through her words, she realized that this was not something she should say, so she gritted her teeth and said, "Anyway, it's not Qi Xun!"
She thought that she had just demonstrated her value, and now she should have the confidence to negotiate terms with King Yao... No matter what, she couldn't push Qi Xun out.
Prince Yao naturally did not ignore Gu Zhilan's gaze. He turned his head and looked at Lord Qi with sudden realization, then smiled slowly.
Marquis Wenyuan was originally a marquis who had been scolded by his father and had evil intentions.
He secretly used the name of his nephew, the prince, to do evil and commit many crimes, causing a catastrophe... I think this statement is enough to shut up the civil and military officials and the prince, even if the emperor doesn't believe it.
"Your Majesty!"
King Yao's expression kept changing, and Lord Qi was dumbfounded. He never thought that in the end, his life would be exchanged for his son's life!
At this moment, King Yao felt that the worries that had troubled him for many days were suddenly relieved, and his body and mind felt relaxed.
Hearing the tone of Lord Qi's collapse, I felt disappointed and impatient: "What do you want to say, uncle?"
Lord Qi opened his mouth, but in the end he said nothing, only dejected expression: “No…no…”
King Yao nodded with satisfaction: "In that case, uncle, please go with me now."
Lord Qi sighed heavily, as if he had aged ten years in an instant, and slowly stood up with his hunched back. He staggered a few steps towards Qi Xun, and tremblingly stretched out his hand, wanting to touch his only son again...
Qi Xun's throat tightened: "Dad..."
He couldn't say anything.
"Xun'er." Lord Qi couldn't hold back and shed a tear.
Gu Zhilan lowered her eyes and said nothing. She even felt a little doubtful. Could it be that Lord Qi was deliberately pretending to be pitiful and was unwilling to die?
The atmosphere of sadness spread throughout the room. Qi Xun couldn't help himself and burst into tears: "Dad! Dad!"
"Xun'er! Xun'er!" The father and son hugged each other and cried bitterly.
Gu Zhilan sighed impatiently and moved aside. Why are you crying? What's there to cry about? This is already the best way to solve the problem!
The room was in chaos. Mrs. Qi, who had been silent all this time, suddenly stood up, walked towards Gu Zhilan and slapped her hard:
"You bitch, it's not enough that you've harmed my son, now you're trying to harm my husband, you jinx! Jinx!"
Gu Zhilan was caught off guard and received a heavy slap. Her face was filled with disbelief: "How dare you hit me!"
Madam Qi raised her hand and slapped him again, her eyes filled with hatred: "I'm hitting you, you bitch!"
King Yao stood aside and waited until Madam Qi was tired of fighting before he slowly said, "Madam, calm down. She won't live for many days."
As soon as these words were spoken, the room fell silent.
"Your Majesty..." Gu Zhilan's throat tightened, and she seemed to be unable to find her voice: "What...what are you talking about?"
Qi Xun was stunned again. He stared at King Yao blankly: "Zhilan...Zhilan is not going to survive?"
King Yao sneered: "In the Jiangnan case, she committed a heinous crime. If she doesn't die, will you take the blame for her?"
The guards immediately stepped forward and pushed Gu Zhilan left and right.
Gu Zhilan's face was full of disbelief, and the despair in her eyes deepened bit by bit. She said with difficulty:
"No... Your Highness, just now in Prince Yao's Mansion, didn't you already... I can make salt! I know a lot of things! I can help you become the crown prince, I..."
"Innocent."
King Yao said nonchalantly: "Do you think that just because you can make fine salt, you have the capital to negotiate with me?
There are many salt craftsmen in Dashun. Why do you think that the emperor will not punish me just because of a handful of fine salt?
Gu, my innocence is of vital importance. You are lucky to die for me."

The Princess's Mansion was busy with the tidying up of things.
With Murong Xuan's instructions, the servants in the Prince's Mansion helped enthusiastically. In just three to five days, they had put the Princess's Mansion in order.
Shen Xiyue couldn't stay in the Song Mansion either.
She was concerned about what happened in Jiangnan. Did King Yao find Gu Zhilan? Is Gu Zhilan dead or alive?
Her uncle rarely talked about court affairs at home, and Shuang Ye hadn't brought back any news in the past few days, so she thought about moving there as soon as possible so that she could ask Murong Xuan for some news.
So he sent Shuangye over to take a look every day. When he heard that everything was ready, he immediately packed up some of his clothes and jewelry and set off.
Since her uncle and cousin went to court, her aunt decided to take her there personally.
Cousin Yang seemed to be still a little upset, and held her hand with sincerity and affection: "Xiyue, the Mingyue Courtyard where you live, sister-in-law will ask someone to clean and tidy it up for you from time to time, so come back and stay here often when you have nothing to do."
Shen Xiyue held her hand in return and accepted the favor with a smile: "In that case, thank you very much, cousin."
"Alright, alright." Aunt Wang waved her hand and said, "What's the point of doing this in public? It's not like you won't be coming back."
Yang quickly responded, "Mother-in-law is right."
The wheels rolled towards the Huayang Princess Mansion not far from the imperial city.
Located on the east side of the imperial palace, this place is extremely precious and has excellent feng shui in the capital.
The houses here vary in size. Some houses occupy most of the street, while others are just a small courtyard, but each one is recorded in the palace.
In addition to the Prince's Mansion and Princess Huayang's Mansion, several royal relatives also live here. The mansions were all awarded by the Emperor based on his own wishes. No matter how rich you are, you can't buy them with silver.
Shen Xiyue's princess mansion is a five-courtyard building with a beautiful view.
After entering the mansion, walking around the screen wall and passing through the corridor, what comes into view is a large garden...Maoping is planting trees while sweating profusely.
Shuangye opened her mouth wide: "Maoping, why are you here?"
Shen Xiyue was also a little shocked. Mao Ping was Murong Xuan's subordinate and the chief secretary of the Prince's Mansion. Most of the time he had to handle official business for Murong Xuan. How could he have so much free time as to plant trees here?
Mao Ping laughed when he heard this: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that this garden would not look good if it was empty, so he asked me to dig up a dozen wintersweets that were about to bloom and move them here."
"Princess, just wait a few days and the plum blossoms will bloom. You won't feel lonely even in winter."
Wang nodded after hearing this. She had thought that a person of such noble status as the prince would be extremely arrogant, but she had never expected that he was so considerate and friendly. She immediately had a much better impression of Murong Xuan.
Shen Xiyue also frowned because of Mao Ping's words, gathered her cloak, and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."
Maoping smiled foolishly, bent down and started planting trees again!
This is not an ordinary wintersweet tree, it is your highness's marriage tree!
