Stay calm, don't panic, Her Royal Highness the Princess is going to reveal more news

Ji Qionghua's ambition made the emperor's brows relax completely.

"The Crown Prince has already agreed. Queen, please find a time to talk to Madam Lin about it. I will then ask the Imperial Observatory to choose an auspicious date so that we can get married as soon as possible."

"You can't let my Qionghua wait too long."

The little princess laughed and was very satisfied. She rewarded the emperor with a slap covered with saliva.

The baby's skin is as delicate as snow, with a slight blush, as if it is a pure treasure given by God.

The queen couldn't help laughing.

……

Two major events happened in one day.

The first thing was to arrange the prince's marriage, and the candidate for the prince consort was Lin Yao, the "sickly" daughter of the Lin family.

The date is set for two months later.

In the capital, countless women shed tears for this.

There was another important event. The prince came to the home of Doctor Gong of the Ministry of Rites, bringing with him a secret decree from the emperor and troops.

Also accompanying him was the eighth prince Ji Huaijin.

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince, the Eighth Prince, what are you two doing..."

Doctor Gong was not at home, so Gong Jing supported her mother and came out to greet them.

Looking at the cold expressions of the two men, Gong Jing had a bad feeling.

In front of the entire Gong family, the prince took out the imperial edict.

As soon as the bright yellow color with dragon pattern appeared, the entire Gong family bowed their heads.

"Heaven has given us the will of heaven, and the emperor has issued an edict."

"Gong Shengping, a doctor in the Ministry of Rites, collaborated with the southern barbarians and betrayed his country for fame and fortune. Now it has been proven true. I am deeply saddened and furious."

"The execution shall be immediate and the nine clans shall be exterminated to serve as a warning to others."

"Appreciate this!"

As an emperor, confiscating property and exterminating the clan is also a gift.

The door of the Gong family was wide open, and there were many people outside watching the fun.

When the contents of the imperial edict came out, the crowd was in an uproar.

"What? The Gong family actually has an affair with the Nanman. They really don't deserve to die!"

"Damn it! These traitors deserve to die!"

The people were indignant.

In the early years, too many soldiers of Dachen died at the hands of the southern barbarians.

Countless young and middle-aged people were left on the battlefield against the southern barbarians.

The people's hatred for the southern barbarians is engraved in their bones.

No matter how big a corrupt official is, in the eyes of the people, he is not as hateful as a traitor.

For a while, there was constant shouting and cursing outside.

Some passers-by ran into Gong's house, and even when they were stopped by the soldiers, they still threw rotten vegetable leaves at them.

Some foul-smelling juice spilled all over the gate of Gong's house.

Those people criticized the Gong family verbally and in writing.

The crowd was outraged and furious.

"How can this be?"

"Your Highness, this must be a misunderstanding. Someone must have framed you."

"Eighth Prince, you know me. The Gong family would never do such a thing."

"Eighth Prince, please help me explain this to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Gong Jing panicked. He wanted to stand up and grab Ji Huaijin's arm, but was held down by the soldiers.

He struggled and sweated profusely.

Looking forward to Ji Huaijin's plea.

"Eighth Prince, didn't you say that I am your most trustworthy friend?"

"Do you really consider me a friend?" Ji Huaixin said with mixed emotions.

"Gong Jing, you have a twin sister, Gong Ping, right?"

"Do you want me to tell you the rest?"

"My father has already investigated today's incident. Your Gong family is guilty of an unforgivable crime."

"However, Father is concerned about the young age of Ninth Sister and it is not appropriate to cause too much killing."

"Among the nine clans of the Gong family, any young son under the age of five will be exempted from the death penalty, but the death penalty can be pardoned, but the living crime cannot be escaped."

"Men sent into exile cannot return home for life, and women enslaved cannot be redeemed."

"Gong Jing, this is already a concession for your Gong family, don't say anything more."

The soldiers who were searching had already rushed into Gong's house.

The prince watched Ji Huaijin confront the other party but did not stop them.

"How could this be?"

Gong Jing's face was as white as paper.

He slumped to the ground, hopeless.

"How did you find out?"

Thinking of something, Gong Jing's humble expression suddenly turned vicious.

"Someone is high-profile, right?"

The resentment in those eyes hurt Ji Huaijin's heart.

He really treated Gong Jing as a friend at the beginning.

Ji Huaijin simply turned his head away, out of sight, out of mind.

"If you don't want others to know, don't do anything except yourself."

"Nothing in your Gong family can escape the eyes of the emperor."

The prince stood with his hands behind his back.

There are occasional dragon patterns on the apricot-yellow dragon robe.

He looked down at Gong Jing's impotent rage.

The prince's eyes were very similar to Ji Qionghua's, equally deep, but lacking the clarity of a child and having a bit more of aura of majesty.

Meeting such a look, Gong Jing burst into laughter.

"Hahaha!"

"We lost!"

"Ji Huaijin, I really regret not killing you directly!"

The prince had a ferocious expression like a devil. Every time he made a look, someone next to him would stuff a smelly sock into his mouth.

Gong Jing was growling.

Mrs. Gong standing next to her was in tears.

Ji Huaijin saw a woman being pushed out and kneeling on the ground.

It’s Gong Ping.

When their eyes met, Gong Ping burst into tears before she said a word.

Looking at the face that was very similar to Gong Jing, Ji Huaijin looked away indifferently.

"Your Highness, we have found evidence of the Gong family's collusion with the enemy."

A soldier came forward holding a box.

The moment she saw the box, Gong Jing was horrified.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

How could these people find the letters that my father had hidden away?

That place, that place is obviously only known to them, father and son.

The prince sneered when he saw Gong Jing's shock.

The place where the things were hidden was naturally revealed by the imperial sister.

The prince opened it and his eyes became gloomy.

The cold gaze was like a knife cutting Gong Jing's skin.

"Gong Jing, your Gong family really deserves death!"

"You should be thankful that my sister was just born. If you insist on accumulating blessings for my sister, I will kill all of you in the Gong family!"

The cold words carried the sharpness of a prince.

The rumored sickly Crown Prince showed his iron-blooded side at this moment.

He once thought about hiding his weakness, but now, he needs to use his strength to shock everyone.

He wanted to give his younger sister a stable environment to grow up in.

So he needs the fear of the world.

Gong Jing's pupils were trembling.

His eyes were blank and his heart was dead.

"Put everyone in jail, and behead them in public at noon tomorrow!"

"Anyone who dares to escape will be killed on the spot."

"The person who leaked the information will be punished together!"

The prince left with a flick of his sleeves, leaving the Gong family wailing incessantly.

The secret decree came too suddenly. By the time the court received the news, those people from the Gong family had already been detained.

All officials involved with the Gong family were punished.

Nearly ten officials of various ranks were removed from their posts.

The emperor has ordered that no one is allowed to intercede, and anyone who violates the order will be punished with the same crime.

The emperor's final say made many ministers in the court uneasy.

Compared to those ministers who began to behave themselves, Ji Qionghua, who was in the harem, heard the news the next day.

There are guests at Qifeng Palace.

Ji Qionghua was handed over by the Queen to an old lady with a kind face.

This is the Queen's biological mother and Ji Qionghua's grandmother.

Looking at the person in front of him, Ji Qionghua was full of amazement.

【Time never defeats beauty. 】

Even though her black hair has turned white, the charm left by time on the Lady of Duke Anguo in front of her is still hard to look away.

"Qiong Huaer, I am your grandmother."

Lady Liu, the wife of the Duke of Anguo, listened to the praise and was not afraid.

The Queen just said that her granddaughter was born strange.

So that's how it is.

She touched Ji Qionghua's cheek with loving eyes.

Ji Qionghua grabbed the longevity lock around her neck and smiled broadly to save face.
