After the marriage, I married the most treacherous minister of the dynasty

Zheng Yuzhen was really panicking. The current situation was very unfavorable to them.

To be honest, he felt that it was impossible for the Second Prince to turn the tables now, and he could only think about how to protect himself.

He was still thinking about how to prevent Yuan Rui from getting involved in this matter when he heard Yuan Rui say:

"Are your mother and father safe now?"

Zheng Yuzhen was stunned for a moment, then he understood what Yuanrui meant.

"Your Majesty?!"

"Don't worry, I will take good care of them."

"They won't be implicated either. After all, you've already left the Zheng family. When the time comes, your name will be removed from the Zheng family tree, and even if the family is exterminated, they won't be implicated."

They are all smart people, and there is no need to explain everything so clearly. Zheng Yuzhen already understood that Yuanrui was ready to sacrifice himself.

He was angry at first, and then came endless ridicule.

In fact, he had expected this day to come.

Ever since he started following Yuan Rui, he had thought that this day would come.

The more he interacted with Yuan Rui, the more he understood how scheming this man was.

However, when that day really came, he still felt a little stunned.

He stood there, his mind full of past events that he hadn't thought about for a long time.

Everyone in the Anguo Mansion, including Shang Yuntong, the last person he thought of was Lan Xijing.

He suddenly thought of Lan Xijing's appearance as a child. At that time, he liked going to the Lan Mansion very much. He felt that Lan Xijing was the cutest sister in the world, even his own sister could not compare to her.

Later, when the two families discussed the marriage and he learned that the Lan family agreed, he was so happy that he couldn't sleep for two nights.

He really loved Lan Xijing at that time, but why did he change later?

After going to the military camp and meeting Shang Yuntong, he slowly forgot about Lan Xijing. He mistook fish eyes for pearls. No wonder Lan Xijing looked down on him.

Thinking of this, he smiled and bowed to Yuan Rui.

"Your Majesty, I'm sorry to trouble you with my family."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will take care of the matter and will not implicate Your Majesty."

He should have died long ago, when he destroyed the Duke of Anguo's Mansion.

But he never gave up and always wanted to restore the Anguo Mansion to its previous state.

So, on the second day, Yan Mingjue received news that someone had confessed to the crime, and that person was someone he knew, Zheng Yuzhen, the eldest grandson of the former Duke of Anguo.

"Zheng Yuzhen?"

Yan Mingjue raised his eyebrows.

"Yes!"

"He turned himself in at the Dali Temple today and said that he was responsible for everything. He took action against Your Highness because he had dealt with the Anguo Mansion before and he held a grudge against him."

No one would believe such nonsense.

Where did Zheng Yuzhen get such ability?

As Zheng Yuzhen surrendered and confessed her guilt, Yuanrui also submitted a petition, requesting to be confined to his home. He said that he was the one who took Zheng Yuzhen in, and although he did not know everything Zheng Yuzhen had done, she was still his after all, and he should be punished.

If Yuanrui directly said that Zheng Yuzhen had nothing to do with him, the court officials would definitely continue to accuse him to death.

Now, he said it himself, retreating to advance, which made it difficult for the court officials to take action.

Yan Ming was not disappointed either. Just like he said before, it would be great if he could get rid of Yuan Rui in one fell swoop. But if he couldn't, he could just suppress him a few more times until he died.

This time, he cut off many of Yuanrui's minions, and the number of people he could use became fewer and fewer.

He wanted to see what else the other party was capable of.

After Lei Yu reported this matter, he immediately said:

"Your Highness, there is one more thing."

"That year, the incident in the palace was investigated thoroughly."
