Did the eldest daughter ascend the throne today?

Compared with the troublemaker Ning Zhiwei, Marquis Dingyuan's actions were even more in the emperor's minefield.

Marquis Dingyuan used the Phoenix Tower to connect the Queen Mother, the eldest prince, the Crown Prince and Prince Ming, trying to please everyone and had evil intentions.

The emperor was most afraid of two things: one, forming cliques for personal gain, and two, sowing discord among royal fathers and sons and brothers, even though royal family ties were as thin as paper.

Marquis Dingyuan committed both of these mistakes.

However, Marquis Dingyuan stood up to defend his daughter, saying, "There is absolutely no such thing. She is a weak woman who can't even tie a chicken, and she doesn't dare to see blood..."

A hint of coldness flashed in the emperor's eyes. "How dare you go out of the city at night and hang out with all kinds of people."

This was heartbreaking. Dingyuan Hou was angry and anxious. Why did the emperor suddenly attack Shu'er? He had intended to let Shu'er marry into the royal family before.

"That was to persuade Ning Zhiwei. They have a deep sisterly bond..."

This set of rhetoric can only fool ordinary people, and the old foxes present rolled their eyes.

The emperor raised his eyebrows and suddenly smiled meaningfully, "Sisterly love? Okay, then give the Phoenix Tower to Ning Zhiwei as a dowry."

When the emperor's suspicion flared up, he started killing people indiscriminately and no one could stop him.

It was like a bolt from the blue, and Marquis Dingyuan's face turned pale. The family's expenses all depended on Fenghuang Tower.

"Your Majesty, it's not that I'm stingy, but this Phoenix Tower... is what the Imperial Concubine likes..."

He didn't dare to tell the truth in front of all the ministers, as he would be impeached by them and the position of the imperial concubine would be lost.

Before he could finish his stammering words, the emperor interrupted and said, "I will tell the imperial concubine."

"But..." Marquis Dingyuan was going crazy. There were many investors behind Fenghuang Building, and he was not the only one who had the final say.

The emperor's expression turned cold, "Is there anything else that cannot be told to others?"

Looking at the emperor's stern face, it was like a basin of cold water was poured over his head. Marquis Dingyuan shuddered and suddenly realized something.

"No, no, no, absolutely not. When Ning Zhiwei gets married, I will give her the Phoenix Tower as a dowry."

This sounds good, but it's all a trap.

Ning Zhiwei has to observe mourning and will not get married within three years. After three years, the opportunity will be gone as the world changes so quickly.

The emperor saw through his thoughts at a glance and became furious. How could a subject's loyalty be lost if he played tricks on him?

It further deepened his intention to take the opportunity to crack down on various forces and give them a severe warning.

"Then you can prepare now and send her off on her coming-of-age day. I will hold a grand coming-of-age banquet for Princess Jingning in the palace, and officials above the fourth rank will attend with their families."

"Pass on my oral order. The coming-of-age banquet will be hosted by the Imperial Concubine herself."

The officials present looked at each other in bewilderment. What was he trying to do?

Marquis Dingyuan was in a very bad condition. He was so shocked that his body was shaking.

The eldest prince gritted his teeth and stood up, "Father, I think this is inappropriate..."

"Get out." A teacup was thrown at the eldest prince. He didn't dare to dodge. It hit his eyebrows and he started bleeding profusely.

Seeing this, the prince shuddered and retracted his steps.

This news caused an uproar inside and outside the palace.

As soon as the court was over, the eunuchs in the palace went to the Tongfu Inn where Ning Zhiwei was staying, which was right opposite the Beizhenfusi, which was feared by the world.

Ning Zhiwei was completely stunned when she heard the emperor's order. "What? The palace is holding a grand coming-of-age banquet for me? Are you kidding me?"

The young eunuch had a stern face and complained in his heart that this street had a bad reputation and no one dared to come in. Only Princess Jingning dared to live here.

"This is a promise made by God. There is no possibility of changing it. Be prepared."

Countless thoughts flashed through Ning Zhiwei's mind. "Thank you for making this special trip, Grandpa. This is a colorless and odorless medicine for sprains and bruises. Take it back and try it."

She took out a palm-sized jade bottle and handed it over.

She had a very sensitive nose and could smell the odor of the medicine on her father-in-law's body. Although it was very faint, it was still a bit pungent.

The young eunuch was stunned for a moment, then his expression eased a little, and he sincerely bowed his hands, "Thank you, County Lady."

The palace is the most prosperous place, but also the darkest place.

What small people like him fear most is getting sick and injured, because they are not qualified to see a royal physician, nor can they go out to see a doctor, so they can only rely on hard work.

Colorless and odorless medicine is the most precious.

Alas, Princess Jingning was a very good person, what a pity.

"By the way, congratulations to the county lady. Phoenix Tower has become your dowry."

Ning Zhiwei: ...

After sending the young eunuch away, Dongsheng came back and saw Ning Zhiwei sitting by the window with a frown on her face, and his heart tightened.

"Master, isn't this a great joy?"

Ning Zhiwei looked at the young battalion commander she had personally trained. He was loyal, good at fighting, and had strong execution ability, but he lacked experience.

"Pushing me to the forefront, attracting firepower from all sides, taking the opportunity to strike at all parties involved in the fight for the throne, and by the way, cutting off the connections between all parties behind the Phoenix Tower, this is worthy of the heart of an emperor."

In other words, she was a sitting duck.

The emperor was reluctant to touch his son and nephew, so he pushed her out to take the blame.

She opened the box and analyzed it carefully for her subordinates. Dongsheng went from being confused to suddenly realizing that the emperor had so many thoughts on his mind. She was able to kill several birds with one stone.

"But you got a Phoenix Tower, which is the old hen that lays golden eggs."

Ning Zhiwei smiled slightly, letting her bear the firepower and also being willing to put down the bait.

Now, the one who feels the most aggrieved is not her, but the shareholders of Phoenix Building.

In the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, an old man screamed, "This is impossible, impossible, I want to go to the palace to ask in person..."

The old lady was furious and ran out like mad. After just two steps, her whole body fell down limply.

The descendants and servants in the room were so scared that they screamed.

"grandmother."

"Mother."

The old lady of Marquis Dingyuan fell ill due to anger, but she did not dare to invite the imperial physician to her house, for fear of being accused of resenting the king.

He could only find a doctor outside, who hurriedly wrote out a prescription and boiled the medicine for him to take. Marquis Dingyuan watched his old mother fall asleep before he turned around and left the house.

Outside the house, Lin Jingshu and her daughter's eyes were swollen from crying.

"Father, I am so unwilling to give up. You know that every blade of grass and every tree in Phoenix Tower is the result of my hard work. I built everything from scratch by myself."

The design concept, restaurant decoration, talent show, stage design, novel food and snacks, etc. were all her ideas.

It can be said that she is the creator of Phoenix Tower.

This is also one of the reasons why Marquis Dingyuan values ​​her so much. Who doesn’t love the God of Wealth who can bring in a lot of money?

"Don't cry yet. I've thought about it again and again, and that person may not have good intentions."

He didn't even dare to mention it to the emperor, for fear that there might be eavesdroppers.

The wife of Marquis Dingyuan was indignant, "But, Phoenix Tower is still going to fall into her hands. Why should Jingshu work hard for several years to prepare wedding clothes for her?"

If it was someone else, he wouldn't be so angry, but it had to be that woman's daughter.

Dingyuan Hou was also upset, "Why didn't she just die? If she died, it would be all over."

Lin Jingshu and her daughter looked at each other, and their eyes lit up instantly.

At this moment, the butler rushed in, "My Lord, the Princess of Jingning County sent someone to check the accounts."

"Let her go."

A cold voice said, "Who are you asking to leave?"

Xie Tongcheng, the deputy commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, looked extremely arrogant and drew out his Embroidered Spring Sword, aiming at Yuan Hou.

Dingyuan Hou was so scared that he took several steps back, his face pale, "Thank you, sir, I told you to get out, why are you here? Is there something wrong?"

Xie Tongcheng is a close confidant of Xiao Linfeng, the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, and is notorious.

"From now on, I will officially bring people to Phoenix Building to check the accounts."

The Dingyuan Marquis family looked around in confusion, "What?"

Xie Tongcheng smiled slightly on his serious face, "Thanks to the kindness of Princess Jingning, 30% of the profits from Phoenix Tower will be distributed to the brothers of the Northern Pacification Division."

The Dingyuan Marquis family was struck by lightning and completely collapsed.

I'm going crazy! Help!!!
