After reading my mind, Daddy, why don't you smile?

Seeing that Queen Xiaomin was about to show a look of disappointment and heartache, Zhao Ying shook her head without thinking, "No, of course not."

Queen Hyomin snorted, "Then listen to mother!"

Zhao Ying said "Oh", then shrugged his nose, Shangguan Shu, you...just wish you good luck!

Here, the mother and daughter were discussing, and Emperor Jianxi was not idle either.

Shao Yihui accepted the suffocating love from his biological parents more than 30 years late. Although he was not quite used to it, he smiled more often and also learned some dry humor.

When she just learned it, the Queen was obviously a little worried, thinking that she had finally given birth to a decent child, but how come he went astray again? But Emperor Jianxi looked very pleased, his fatherly love was overflowing, and he rewarded her!

Rewards flowed like water to Kunning Palace.

Emperor Jianxi really liked Shao Yihui.

He found that his son was truly intelligent, talented, and a promising talent. Although he had not received education as a crown prince since childhood, he had the breadth of mind and bearing of a noble character, worthy of being his and Hyomin's son.

It filled his past regret about Zhao Cong's IQ, and also filled his regret that Zhao Ying was not a man.

Shao Yihui is the male version of Zhao Ying. Emperor Jianxi thinks he is simply perfect!

Emperor Jianxi's way of expressing his love was very simple. Besides rewarding him, he also gave him high honor. Emperor Jianxi changed Shao Yihui's name. Zhao Cong was originally his name, but it could no longer be used.

But Cong'er... Emperor Jianxi and Empress Xiaomin had discussed it, but they didn't know how to deal with Zhao Cong. Zhao Cong had fallen from heaven to earth. After all, they had raised him for more than 30 years, and the child was kind and filial. They selfishly didn't want to make things too difficult for him.

But it is not possible to not deal with him. His own son will be disappointed. This is still a small matter. After all, Zhao Cong is the former crown prince and has many followers. If those followers are dissatisfied, they will cause trouble for Shao Yihui in the future...

Emperor Jianxi was struggling, and Zhao Ying happened to enter the palace. Emperor Jianxi asked a question. He thought Zhao Ying would plead for Zhao Cong, but Zhao Ying asked, "How about killing him?"

"How about that?"

Emperor Jianxi immediately understood what was in his mind. After thinking so much, he still didn't want to kill Zhao Cong out of selfishness. Since he didn't want to kill him, he had to let him go!

Emperor Jianxi secretly summoned Zhao Cong into the palace and asked him if he knew about this matter in advance. Zhao Cong cried and said that he knew it, and told him the whole story, which was exactly the same as the information found by the Imperial City Department.

Emperor Jianxi was relieved that Zhao Cong was still a good boy. If that was the case, he would not pose a threat to Shao Yihui, so he felt relieved.

Emperor Jianxi abolished Zhao Cong's position as crown prince, and Empress Xiaomin adopted him as her adopted son, conferring him the title of prince with only an empty title and enjoying food and salary, and named him "Mian", implying that the emperor and empress would always remember their affection for him.

At the same time, the Burmese Prince's Palace, formerly the Xian Prince's Palace, was granted to move out on a chosen day.

The former Crown Princess Wei Shu was a married daughter of the Wei family, so she was not burdened by her family. She just changed from a Crown Princess to a Princess of Burma.

As for the Wei family, Emperor Jianxi did not move the tablet of Grand Tutor Wei out of the Taimiao for the sake of Empress Xiaomin. However, the Wei mansion was ransacked, Wei Fu was dismissed from his post and stripped of his military power, and was exiled to Ningguta along with the entire Wei family, never to return for the rest of his life.

After the imperial edict came down, Zhao Ying went to plead for Wei Fu. Zhao Ying said that Wei Fu was implicated by Wei Ju and was innocent. Moreover, he had the credit for quelling the rebellion. Even if there were unusual movements that day, his merits and demerits could offset each other.

Wei Fu's intention to rebel that day could not be concealed from Emperor Jianxi.

Emperor Jianxi hated the Wei family so much that of course he would not agree. Sparing his life was already a great favor from the emperor. He should have been tortured to death!

Lingchi...

Zhao Ying's face turned pale and he didn't dare to beg again.

I am just waiting for the day when Wei Fu will be exiled so that I can go and see him off.

Shangguan Shu insisted on following.

When the three met, although Wei Fu was in chains, his gloomy expression was less severe. He looked at Zhao Ying with a calm and gentle gaze, "Sister Ying, don't worry about me. I'm fine. Although I'm in chains now, at this moment, my body and mind are free."

"I no longer have to wonder why I have a father like Wei Ju, no longer have to worry about Wei Ju causing me trouble, no longer have to worry about A Yuan being bullied by Wei Ju, and no longer have to..." He laughed at himself, "have any more wishful thinking about you."

Wei Fu left.

Before leaving, Zhao Yingqiang stuffed a bag into his hand and asked him to take it with him. Wei Fu looked at her for a while and then took it.

Zhao Ying instructed, "There are banknotes and some medicine in the bundle. I have already packed them. You won't suffer on the way. When you get there, you must take good care of yourself. If one day the new emperor ascends the throne, he will surely grant amnesty to the world, then..."

Wei Fu shook his head and smiled, not really caring.

Zhao Ying looked at his back and couldn't help but feel tears in her eyes. Things in this world are always so unexpected. The two brothers who have protected and loved her since childhood have become like this. But Shao Yihui was not wrong. What was wrong was the impermanence of the world.

Shangguan Shu's eyes darkened when he saw this. After a while, he said in an ambiguous tone, "Ying'er, I heard that on that day when Wei Fu was mobilizing troops, the Wei Mansion happened to catch fire. Did you know?"

Zhao Ying did not hide it from him, "I sent someone to release him. After you left the capital, I was worried that the news would leak out. Wei Ju would take risks, and he would definitely want the soldiers in Wei Fu's hands. I couldn't let him rebel. In that case, it would be best for me to go and stop him myself, but I was worried that they would catch me and use me as bait. I could only give some hints and stop them. I didn't expect Ah Yuan to..."

Shangguan Shu remained silent, and it seemed that Zhao Ying didn't know that it was he who leaked the information.

Shangguan Shu was originally very jealous of Zhao Ying's concern for Wei Fu, but thinking that Wei Fu was gone, he suppressed his jealousy.

no point.

There's no point in getting jealous and quarreling with Zhao Ying over someone who's been eliminated.

Shangguan Shu said considerately, "It is difficult to handle Wei Yuan's funeral affairs now, but don't worry, I will send him off in a decent manner and find him a good grave with beautiful mountains and rivers."

Zhao Ying was very surprised by Shangguan Shu's behavior, but since he had good intentions, why not do it?

When the two of them returned, Shangguan Shu asked, "Ying'er, why didn't you let the emperor deal with Wei Ju?"

Zhao Ying's eyes were cold, "I always remember that Wei Ju in my previous life harmed my Wan'er, and in this life he also harmed my biological brother. He did so many evil things that it would not be a pity if he died a thousand times, but I can't let him die like this. My poor Wan'er, I was powerless in my previous life, but in this life I want to seek justice for her!"

At that moment Shangguan Shu's body stiffened.

Zhao Ying noticed his abnormality and thought back to her mother's plan. She felt relieved. Humph, her mother was right. She was too kind and was seduced by his beauty so she let him go.

He deserves to suffer!

……

Emperor Jianxi named Shao Yihui Zhao Xi. Hui means the light of the setting sun, and his Xi'er will be the future sun of Da Chu.

According to Emperor Jianxi's idea, he would directly depose Zhao Cong from the position of crown prince and enthrone Shao Yihui as the crown prince.
