The eldest princess pushed open the door of the cold palace and walked in.

This place was still in a dilapidated state. Although Tuoba Jun had a high status and a distinguished identity in Dongyue Kingdom, he was not given any respect in the palace of the Great Saint Dynasty.

The eldest princess simply treated him as an ordinary criminal.

When they entered the inner hall, the eldest princess couldn't help but frown and slowed down her pace.

The smell of alcohol in here is too strong... and the ground is littered with empty wine jugs and jars mixed with vomit, it's really filthy.

Walking further inside, I saw Tuoba Jun lying on the ground drunk, holding a large wine jug, and cursing non-stop.

"Zhao Jiayi! Zhao Jiayi! Where are you? You heartless woman!"

"We haven't seen each other for so many years. Do you know that I miss you?"

"You bitch actually married someone behind my back! Hahahaha..."

While cursing, Tuoba Jun picked up the wine jug and took a big gulp. Perhaps he drank too quickly and choked, so he threw away the wine jug and lay on the ground, coughing non-stop.

"Cough cough cough... cough cough cough..."

"So you want to see me so much just so that I can see you like this?"

A familiar yet unfamiliar voice entered Tuoba Jun's ears. He was stunned at first, then he looked up in disbelief.

After seeing clearly that the person in front of him was really the eldest princess, Tuoba Jun seemed to sober up. He staggered to his feet and began to tidy up his clothes.

"It's you...why are you here suddenly?"

"Didn't you call me day and night?"

The eldest princess' voice was calm, with a hint of teasing in it.

But Tuoba Jun seemed to have been caught by his pigtails. His face turned red with pain and he began to stammer and apologize to the princess.

"I...I was just talking when I was drunk...I didn't expect those servants to really come looking for you, don't take it to heart..."

"It's okay. I've been really busy lately and haven't found the time to come and see you."

"So what do you want to do by bringing me here?"

A glimmer of hope suddenly appeared in Tuoba Jun's eyes. He was still fantasizing about renewing his relationship with the eldest princess.

Tuoba Jun has not married in these years because he wants to see the princess again and ask her to marry him.

Tuoba Jun had inquired about it, and found out that the eldest princess' husband died a year after her marriage, and she has been single ever since. In his heart, he still believed that the eldest princess was waiting for him.

However, the eldest princess just looked at him calmly, as if she felt nothing about the eager look.

She walked to a chair and stood still, keeping a distance from Tuoba Jun without leaving a trace.

"Tell me first why you came to the Great Saint Capital. Is it for the Zhong family?"

"Zhong family? Are you talking about that idiot Zhong Qingshu? Why do you think that useless idiot would make me condescend to come and see him?"

Tuoba Jun's tone was full of sarcasm, as if he was trying his best to distance himself from the Zhong family.

However, the princess did not change her opinion of Tuoba Jun because of his words.

She already had solid evidence in her hands that Tuoba Jun had been in contact with the Zhong family over the years, and had attempted to harm the Pang family army, and had even extended his hand into the palace.

Ever since Tuoba Jun was captured, the princess secretly checked the identities of all the servants in the palace and discovered that people of unknown origin were placed in many inconspicuous places.

The princess arrested all these people and tortured them severely. In the end, she came to the conclusion that these people were actually from the Dongyue Kingdom.

And they all said in unison that they did not know the Third Prince. Isn't this a case of trying to cover up one's own faults?

Tuoba Jun has such a high status in the Great Dongyue Kingdom, how could anyone not know him? This further confirmed the princess's guess.

Therefore, she was very sure that these people were the ones Tuoba Jun had arranged in the palace early in the morning to monitor the royal family in the palace.

At this moment, the eldest princess looked at Tuoba Jun, who was pretending to be affectionate, as if she was looking at a clown.

She chuckled, took out a brocade box from behind and threw it on the table in front of Tuoba Jun. This brocade box was of course given to her by Song Qingwan.

"Look at what this is for yourself. Tuoba Jun, you haven't changed in all these years. You're still as cunning as ever."

"what is this?"

Tuoba Jun wanted to continue pretending, but the princess exposed him directly. She didn't have the patience to watch this man perform any longer.

So he opened the brocade box directly, took out all the letters inside and threw them in front of Tuoba Jun.

"Take a look at these letters for yourself! You must be familiar with them, right? They were all written by you personally to Zhong Qingshu."

"What...what letter? Could there be a misunderstanding?"

"This letter contains a detailed record of your plan to seize our Great Saint Dynasty. Have you forgotten?"

Tuoba Jun was shocked. He opened his mouth but said nothing.

As if he knew he couldn't refute it, Tuoba Jun suddenly laughed out loud. His face was hideous and his facial features were distorted, completely different from his calm and composed look just now.

Tuoba Jun pointed his finger at the eldest princess' face and said with hatred.

"I have been waiting for you all these years! You have made me wait for more than twenty years... more than twenty years! Zhao Jiayi, you are really a heartless woman!"

"Oh? Really?"

"I do all this just to be worthy of you, don't you understand?"

"When I saved you, I made it very clear that there would be no future between us. Dong Yue and the Great Sage would fight sooner or later. We are destined to be enemies."

"Then what have I done over the years? Zhao Jiayi, you know how hard it was and how much effort I put in to gain my father's trust and climb up to the top!"

"So you want to use this to kidnap me? Do you think I will believe you?"

"Why don't you believe it? If you agree now, I will marry you immediately. You will be the queen of Dongyue Kingdom in the future, and this Great Dynasty will belong to us!"

Tuoba Jun was talking about his plan almost crazily, not noticing that the eldest princess' face had darkened.

She snorted coldly and stood up, interrupting Tuoba Jun's performance.

"I don't have time to waste time talking to you here. I have already captured your guards. If you are smart, tell me all the spies you have planted in the Great Saint Dynasty. I can send you back to Dongyue Kingdom safely and never embarrass you again!"

"Heisha, you actually captured Heisha? How is this possible? He is so skilled in martial arts..."

"No matter how skilled a person is in martial arts, he still has weaknesses, and his weakness is you!"

After the princess finished speaking, she slowly walked towards the door. Suddenly, she seemed to remember something and stopped, then turned to Tuoba Jun and said.

"I will ascend the throne in a few days. From now on, the Great Saint Dynasty belongs to me, Zhao Jiayi, and I am the emperor of the Great Saint Dynasty. Do you think I would be so stupid as to hand over the country to you?"

Tuoba Jun's face was full of disbelief. He took a few steps back and shook his head frantically.

"Impossible! Impossible! I don't believe it... You actually want to be the emperor yourself? How could you do this!"

"Why not? I am more qualified than anyone else to sit on this throne!"

After saying this, the princess strode out of the cold palace and ignored Tuoba Jun.

Tuoba Jun stood there for a long time, unable to come back to his senses.

He was wrong. He always thought that being a queen was the highest honor for a woman...

So he did all this in order to take control of the Great Holy Dynasty in his own hands and then make the eldest princess his queen.

Sure enough, he still underestimated this woman's ambition...

Zhao Jiayi, it turns out that I never saw through you...haha...

On the fourth day after Heisha was captured, Jinxin returned from the explosion room. She brought a thick stack of confessions to the eldest princess' desk.

"Princess, everything is here."

"Have you confessed everything?"

"Yes, this Heisha has been with Tuoba Jun for many years. Basically, Tuoba Jun would order him to do whatever he wanted, so these should be the entire plan."

"Okay, you go down."

"Princess...that Tuoba Jun..."

"Keep him locked up until the Emperor of Dongyue comes to claim him."

"Yes."

The eldest princess casually flipped through the confession letter, threw it into the corner, and continued to review memorials.

Since she has decided to be the emperor of this great dynasty, she must be responsible for the people of the world.

For a man like Tuoba Jun, even if the princess has some affection for him, she would not really agree to marry him.

Song Qingwan naturally understood this, so this was why he was afraid that she would try her best to push the eldest princess up.

What the Great Holy Dynasty needs is not just an emperor, but an emperor who can truly care about the people of the world, an emperor who can truly devote the rest of his life to political affairs.
