Red Mansion and Crimson Pearl

"The county lady is alive!" Qingwen's forehead was covered with sweat. She gritted her teeth and whispered, "I only heard these few words..."

Daiyu clutched her clothes tightly, swayed her body, and sat down on the couch with a pale face.

So, the prince was not saved.

The assassination was indeed related to those students of the Jia family.

It might even be related to the legendary "Old Military Token"!

Daiyu closed her eyes and forced herself to calm down: "Where did you hear that?"

"In the kitchen, two eunuchs are talking in private..." Qingwen was terrified. She kept looking outside and behind her, and urged in a low voice, "Miss, think about what to do?

"The prince has passed away! This is such a big deal. I'm afraid the entire Jia family will be labeled as traitors and executed!

"Will it implicate you!?"

Daiyu was also a little confused and her breathing was unstable.

Just as she was about to answer, someone outside came in with a message. Daiyu looked carefully: Tao Han.

"What's wrong?" Daiyu remained calm.

Tao Han bowed and said carefully, "Master called me over as soon as he entered the palace, and I have already reported everything I know.

"When His Majesty was eating vegetarian noodles just now, he was silent for a while when he heard that the princess had just had lunch.

"After you finish eating, ask the maid to pass on the message that once the princess has finished eating, please come over immediately."

and so……

"Have you told Supervisor Tao everything you know? Does His Majesty know about it too?" Daiyu looked at Tao Han with a glimmer of expectation.

Tao Han was stunned for a moment, then reacted and smiled: "Yes! Yes! I have reported everything I have experienced and heard!

"Although it was Master who reported everything, Master later went to serve His Majesty. I watched from afar and Master was talking the whole time!"

Chu Qian, who was following behind, frowned but said nothing.

Unexpectedly, Tao Han looked back at him and grinned, "Eunuch Chu told me everything about the Dali Temple, and I told my master everything.

"Please don't blame me, Internal Official Chu!"

Chu Qian raised his eyelids coldly and snorted: "You have been promoted. We will only work together once in this life. It doesn't matter."

Hearing Tao Han touching his nose awkwardly, Xiaohong couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth.

I have to say that the Empress Dowager has good vision. Look at the person she assigned to the princess, he is so loyal!

Daiyu also smiled, feeling more confident, and stood up and ordered, "Let's go. Don't keep His Majesty waiting for too long."

Originally, Daiyu only planned to take Xiaohong with her, but Chu Kai felt uneasy and insisted on following her no matter what.

Daiyu let him do as he pleased.

Qingwen was too emotional, so Daiyu left her in the palace to look after Jia Lan and Qiaojie, and told her not to tell the children about these things.

When they were outside the Xuanzheng Hall, they heard Prince Dun saying, "The Emperor has always loved the Crown Prince..."

"That's right." Emperor Zhaoming interrupted without any hesitation in a cold voice, "Your Majesty has always loved the Crown Prince more than I do!

"You support Prince Yu more than I do!

"King Kuan Zhongshun and other royal family members are more numerous than me!

“So what?!

"Didn't he pass on the throne and the country to me?

"Do I have to put myself and the people of this country at risk just because of the Supreme Lord's apparent favoritism and leniency, and continue to let these two people take advantage of me?

"——I won't let them have a good end! I won't cover up this family shame!

"Those who plot treason are the first of the ten evils and will not be pardoned even if pardoned!

"Now that the evidence is solid, issue an order immediately to arrest the entire government and eradicate all the evil!

"Prince Yu, Zhongshun, Prince Xining, Wang Ziteng and others will be executed in three days, according to the law!"

All the royal family members were spared and Prince Dun's mouth was shut up.

Dong Wang, Feng Tang and Cao Feng were all eager to wipe out the roots and put an end to future troubles, but because they were all relatives, they did not feel comfortable persuading the emperor to kill people.

Upon hearing the Emperor Zhaoming's order, he obeyed without hesitation.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Tao Han went in, stood in the corner of the hall, and bowed upwards.

Emperor Zhaoming and Tao Xingjian both saw him and knew that it was Daiyu who came.

Tao Xingjian could no longer stand, his eyes drifting towards the outside of the palace gate - how important were the four people standing below? It had nothing to do with him!

He just thought about the shock his niece from a noble family had endured in the past few days, the cruel punishment she had suffered, the inability to eat or sleep well, the night interrogation and not being able to come back, and the way that stupid queen had made things so difficult for her!

Just thinking about this made his heart ache with sadness and anger. He wished he could find the culprit who made his niece suffer like this and smash his legs!

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He turned around and whispered to a eunuch, "Your Majesty has been running around and is very angry. Go and bring us a bowl of lotus heart tea.

"For dinner, we also need a winter melon and lotus leaf soup."

The eunuch agreed and ran away.

Emperor Zhaoming did not hear this.

He was just finishing up by saying a few words to King Dong and others, then he thanked them for their hard work and asked them to go down and rest.

The four men took three steps back, and before they turned around, they heard Emperor Zhaoming instruct Tao Xingjian: "Send a set of good bows and arrows to Little Sanzi.

"Add a more detailed map of the southwest and northwest.

"Tell him that I will test him after I finish my work these few days."

The four of them chuckled, nodded with admiration, and praised Emperor Zhaoming for his ability to teach his son.

Then the emperor said, "Well, that's enough. You can let Zhaoqing in. Bring a chair."

Tao Xingjian then shouted, "Get a thick mat!"

He muttered to himself again, as if explaining: "This conversation must be long today. She is weak and can't stand or sit..."

The four men paused, and the steps of Prince Dong, Cao Feng and Prince Dun all slowed down a little.

It was still Feng Tang who pulled the King of East and Cao Feng on the left and right without changing his expression, and retreated with the same pace.

At the entrance of the hall, two groups of people brushed shoulders.

Daiyu stopped politely, bowed and nodded: "Prince Dun, Prince Dongping, Lord Cao, General Feng."

"Princess Zhaoqing has worked hard." Feng Tang was afraid that the three of them would be arrogant, so he rushed to speak first and extended his hand to signal, "Please."

The other three stared in amazement.

Daiyu lowered her eyes and nodded, then walked forward with light lotus steps.

The four men quickly left the hall and turned the corner. There were no eunuchs or guards stationed every three steps around them.

The Eastern Prince looked at Feng Tang strangely: "You... even when you wake up in the morning, you don't seem to be so polite to Concubine Shu."

This comparison is quite interesting.

Prince Dun felt that he had understood, he stroked his beard, nodded, and even smiled.

Only Cao Feng frowned: "The former Marquis Wen'an and Your Majesty were equals..."

Feng Tang waved his hands repeatedly, glanced around to see if there was anyone around, and then said in a low and vague voice: "The Supreme Lord hates the Jia family to death..."

The three of them looked at each other and understood.

If a family is involved in the death of the prince, the Supreme Lord will want to kill that family's entire family!

If Princess Lin still served the Empress Dowager as wholeheartedly as before, occasionally gave Emperor Zhaoming some advice, and had a small friendship with Tao Xingjian, the Emperor would have turned a blind eye and that would have been fine.

But if she actually had the "ambition" to live in the harem, then given the emperor's suspicion and vengeance, I'm afraid he would pursue all nine clans of the Jia family relentlessly.

By then, it will be the emperor who will be in a state of panic.

The Emperor Zhaoming of their family is the most thoughtful, far-sighted, and ambitious. He would never create such a big trouble for himself just for a little woman!

Thinking of this, King Dong felt regretful and sighed: "The girl from the Lin family is smart and intelligent, and has extraordinary talent.

"If you are unwilling to enter the harem, you will definitely not enter the royal family.

"Then who in this world can put her aside?

"It's hard!"
