The assassin's princess is actually my aunt

On the one hand, there was pressure from the Queen Mother to thoroughly investigate Duke Jingguo.

On the other hand, Emperor Qianyao was concerned about the identity of Duke Jingguo and did not want to get the news that it was Duke Jingguo who murdered Princess Mingnuo.

Zhou Gaoyang said he was exhausted.

Fortunately, although Emperor Qianyao had the intention to protect Duke Jingguo,

Thinking about it did not hinder the investigation.

All we ask is that the investigation be conducted in secret and nothing should be made public until there is solid evidence.

Even after finding definite evidence, do not take any action immediately and require reporting first.

Zhou Gaoyang said of course!

If he really is Duke Jingguo, he is a first-class duke. With his power, he can't do anything.

Forget it, let’s investigate first, and then hand over the conclusion to His Majesty. He won’t be able to take care of the follow-up.

A duke, a princess, and behind them an emperor and a empress dowager.

He can't afford to offend either side.

Regardless of whether there is definite evidence or not, Princess Liuyun of the Jingguo Mansion became a demon out of jealousy because she could not get the love she wanted.

He behaved in an unruly manner and undressed in front of everyone.

Rumor has it that Duke Jingguo avenged his daughter by killing Princess Mingnuo and severely injuring her.

In just two days, it spread to every corner of Fengyao.

What's worse, Duke Jingguo was weak and incompetent, and was suppressed by Princess Zhuxing for many years.

The women in Duke Jingguo's backyard have all become decorations.

Someone asked, how could Duke Jingguo, a first-rank duke, be suppressed so much by a foreign princess?

Are they a loving couple?

Rumor has it, bah, what love between husband and wife?

It’s all because of Princess Zhuxing. The Duke’s wife has the leverage over Duke Jingguo.

What's the handle?

The rumor has it that everyone knows about Duke Jingguo and the reason why he was conferred the title Duke.

Isn’t it because of a few battles that the original Guyue Kingdom was broken up?

It was divided into the three small countries of Liuyun, Guyue and Dayuan.

But everyone knows that Gu Yue was the strongest country on the continent back then.

How is it possible that he could be beaten like this by a mere general?

The reason was that Princess Zhuxing of Guyue Kingdom was married to General Wei at that time.

Rumor has it that Princess Zhuxing wanted to gain a foothold in Fengyao.

For his own ambition, he sold out his country.

He stole the military deployment map of Guyue Kingdom and the border with Qianyao Kingdom.

She handed it over to her husband Wei Chen, who later became General Wei, a man of unrivaled bravery.

In one fell swoop, it destroyed the strongest Gu Yue Kingdom that had existed for hundreds of years.

Become the trusted minister of Emperor Qianyao, who has just ascended the throne.

I have to ask, where did all this news come from? Is it true or false?

Rumors are spreading again, but I’ve already said it’s just a rumor, who cares whether it’s true or not!

The twists and turns are enough, and the story is exciting! From love between men and women, infatuated men and resentful women, to hatred between family and country, ethics and morals, and conspiracy and treason.

It is really exciting and shocking!

"boom…"

"You're looking for death! Come, arrest them! Who dares to talk nonsense and spread rumors again?

All of them should be arrested and beaten to death by the Lord!"

Wei Chen was so angry that he kicked over the chair at his feet.

"Sir, please calm down!" The counselor was so frightened that he immediately bowed and said.

"Calm down? How can I calm down?

I haven’t settled the score with that bitch yet regarding Linlang’s matter!

What about now? Linlang's story is spreading like wildfire!

Everyone knows that the daughter of the Duke of Jingguo is shameless and strips off her clothes and screams in public! "

The counselors' legs were so weak with fear that they said that Duke Jingguo favored his eldest daughter.

But now, it is this legitimate daughter who has brought shame to the Jingguo Mansion.

“The young lady is also a victim. As long as we find out that it was Princess Mingnuo, that woman, who harmed the young lady.

His Majesty will definitely make the decision for the young lady, and then the master can marry the young lady off to a place far away.

The master can also ensure that the young lady will have no worries for the rest of her life, and everyone will forget about this matter.

Hearing this, Wei Chen's expression did not improve at all, but became even gloomier.

"Have you found out where the rumor came from?"

"It's... it's Princess Mingnuo's Mansion."

When they heard the rumor, they immediately sent people to investigate to find out where the rumor came from.

Originally they thought they would encounter resistance during the inspection, but in fact, the inspection was easier than they expected.

It didn't take them long to find out that the rumor came from Princess Mingnuo's mansion.

Princess Mingnuo used truly vicious means to attack and discredit the Duke of Jingguo's Mansion.

It is a despicable trick to come up with the idea of ​​fabricating rumors among the people.

This is what a demon woman in Jianghu is like!

The strategist was somewhat disdainful, but when he looked up, he saw the expression on Duke Jingguo's face.

That look was crazy, like a trapped beast, wanting revenge and destroying everything.

The counselor who had been with the Duke for more than ten years felt a pang in his heart.

It was like being plunged into ice water, and I was terrified!

An irrepressible guess emerged in his heart.

He always thought that this was just a rumor fabricated by Princess Mingnuo in order to discredit the Jingguo Mansion.

Is this a rumor? Is it true?

What if...what if it's true?

Even if she is the wife of the Duke, the country she betrayed is not Qianyao, in fact, all is fair in war.

But he won the war by relying on women to betray his country.

Moreover, this woman is the wife of a duke. What kind of woman is she?

Then what kind of person is the Duke who, in exchange for this, has doted on and pampered her for more than a decade?

How can a first-rank Duke's Mansion exist in Fengyao?

What's more, the Guyue Kingdom has not disappeared from this world.

Instead, it split into three kingdoms, which were constantly plagued by internal strife.

But after all, they have only been separated for a dozen years, and even if the bones are broken, the tendons are still connected.

If this is true, how can Princess Zhuxing survive in the world?

The counselor thought over and over again, but when he looked back, Duke Jingguo was nowhere to be found.

The strategist ran into the yard and happened to meet Wei Yunfan who was hurrying in.

Wei Yunfan is the illegitimate son of the Duke's Mansion and the only male heir.

He has always been low-key and rarely appears in public, but at this moment he was actually a little flustered.

"Sir...Father just personally selected the palace soldiers."

It was a clean and clear sentence, and he didn't know what was going on.

But I had a premonition that something big was going to happen.

The counselor looked gloomy: "Where's the madam?"

Wei Yunfan didn't ask any more questions and said, "Mother took my sister out of Fahua Temple and hasn't come back yet. We have sent someone to pick her up."

On the day of the palace banquet, Wei Linlang started to make a fuss after she came to her senses.

He shouted and made a fuss, wanting to kill Princess Mingnuo!

And the mother, who rarely does anything, locked herself in the room and ignored it.

After nightfall, the servants said that the lady woke up in the middle of the night and shouted something, seeming very scared, and then she started to have a fever again.

It was not until the evening of the next day when the fever subsided that he hurriedly took Wei Linlang to the Fahua Temple.

The strategist thought about it and felt that perhaps only Princess Zhuxing could stop Duke Weiguo now.

No matter what others say, he has seen it clearly over the years.

Compared to the Duke, the lady is the one with extraordinary wisdom and can often comfort the Duke who has lost his mind.

Oh, hope I can catch up...

Wei Yunfan looked at the setting sun, which was emitting a cold, pale yellow halo.

For some reason, Wei Yunfan felt a little chilly and pulled his clothes closer.

He didn't rush to leave, but turned around and looked at the quiet study, wondering what he was thinking.
