After entering the book, I emptied the warehouse of my foster mother's house to farm

His Majesty had been looking for evidence to punish the Prince of Zhenxi, but before he could gather all the evidence, the Prince of Zhenxi was poisoned to death in Wuyi Lane.

Princess Minhui also died suddenly in the Shuntian Prefecture prison, and the cause of death is unknown.

The coroner really couldn't find out the cause of her death, but he suspected that it was caused by the red lines on her face.

However, Mu Shengyan disagreed with the autopsy, and the coroner did not dare to touch the princess's body easily. The matter ended hastily with the princess's body being returned to the Zhenxi Palace.

Now... there is no evidence.

The case that had troubled Pei Jun for many days was thus closed in an unclear manner, and the emperor did not pursue the matter any further.

After listening to Xu Xing's persuasion and guidance, Mu Shengyan went to the palace to meet the emperor first, voluntarily handed over half of his military power, and requested the emperor to allow them to take the bodies of their father and sister back to Caiyun Mansion to return to their roots.

The emperor originally wanted to deal with the increasingly arrogant Mu Fang, but now that he is dead, and the prince wisely handed over half of his military power, if he were to take away the rest of the troops as well, it would inevitably disappoint the other ministers.

Furthermore, the Western Border always needs someone to guard it. After Mu Fang's death, it would be just what he wanted for Mu Shengyan, who was upright and kind-hearted, to inherit the title.

The Zhenxi Palace has deep roots in Caiyun Palace. If it is uprooted without leaving any room for survival, there might be chaos.

That's good too.

Therefore, the emperor approved Mu Shengyan's request and allowed him to leave the capital that same day.

Xu Xing personally went to see him off. After taking a look at the carriage that the Ming family was sitting in, he said to Mu Shengyan, "When you return to Caiyun Mansion, you must eliminate all the evil people in the Ming family. Do not show any mercy. Also, destroy the deadly things that the King of Zhenxi built in the Mu family's ancestral tomb!"

When Mu Shengyan heard this, his heart sank and he became curious about the things in the ancestral grave.

What on earth could have taken the lives of the Mu clan members so seriously?

When he returned to Caiyun Mansion and buried the coffin of King Zhenxi, he discovered the things in the ancestral tomb and actually bowed in the direction of Kyoto City.

If discovered, it would be a heinous crime punishable by the death of nine generations of the clan!

This is something.

At this time, Mu Shengyan took note of Xu Xing's instructions: "Don't worry, Boss Xu. For the sake of Jin'er and the people of the Western Territory, I will not be as foolish as my father."

"See you later."

"See you later."

After Xu Xing watched Mu Shengyan's team go away, he rode back to the city with Jing Lei.

Jiang Hao sat in the tea room of the Millennium Building, quietly drinking tea and waiting for people.

When Xu Xing came in, Jiang Hao was still in a daze. When she heard his voice, she smiled and came back to her senses. She poured him a cup of tea and handed it to him: "Is everything going well?"

"very smooth."

Xu Xing did not feel guilty about sending people to kill the King of Zhenxi. Instead, he was grateful that he sacrificed the King of Zhenxi to save Mu Shengyan's family: "Fortunately, the emperor has many considerations and did not pursue it too much after weighing the pros and cons. Otherwise, it would take a lot of trouble."

"As long as we return to Caiyun Mansion and follow your instructions, I think there won't be any big problems for us to live through two generations in peace."

As for the future, who can say for sure?

The Zhenxi Palace came to an end, but Jiang Hao received a new challenge.

Xu Xing was slightly startled, then shook his head helplessly: "Your Majesty really has a back-up plan when doing things, which always catches people off guard."

Jiang Hao put down his teacup and sighed, "Who said it wasn't? It's just——"

She smiled faintly again: "If Master Ji knew that I was going to treat the Crown Prince, do you think he would be too excited to sleep or too worried to sleep?"

Hearing this, Xu Xing's deep eyes revealed a hint of fondness: "I didn't expect that you also have a naughty side."
