Did the eldest daughter ascend the throne today?

Chapter 72: Remnants of the Former Royal Family

The emperor tried his best to control his emotions that were about to get out of control, "You mean, the eldest princess has been poisoned for more than 20 years?"

Yuanzheng was trembling, wishing he could shrink, "Looks like it from the state."

A cold voice sounded, "This is not right. What kind of poison can last for more than 20 years? Could I have seen it wrong?"

It was Ning Zhiwei. She had a pair of big curious eyes and was inexplicably cute.

If he was poisoned more than 20 years ago, it had nothing to do with her. The emperor was too lazy to argue with her and didn't want to butt in on the matter.

It was originally a rule-less person.

The emperor didn't realize that his bottom line towards her was getting lower and lower.

The hospital official explained carefully, "Strictly speaking, this is not a poison. It is a drug that destroys human health and turns a lively person into a disabled person."

"The previous emperor Jiang Li had a lover in his heart, but he married the daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo in order to seize the throne. After the Duke of Zhenguo helped him ascend the throne, he drugged the queen, leaving her half-dead, and used her value to the fullest. He killed the people in the Zhenguo Mansion and exiled the remaining people to a bitter and cold place."

"Five years later, the queen died of illness, but it was revealed that it was the evil emperor who did it."

"The Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion rebelled, and many people responded. This was the fuse for the fall of the Jiang Dynasty."

Everyone present was well-versed in history books and knew this period of history very well.

Emperor Jiang Li did not kill the man outright because, firstly, he still had some value to use, and secondly, letting his enemy survive and live in pain would better satisfy his perverted desire for revenge.

Yes, it's revenge.

No matter how humbly you begged for help in the beginning, once you succeed, all that becomes a shame. You will try every means to erase that black history, and you will have to pay it back a hundred fold.

"This medicine is for sick beauty." Emperor Jiang Li specially had it developed and it was only used on the queen.

Don’t ever try to guess what a bastard man is thinking. If you guess, the answer is just one word: cheap.

"The magic of this medicine is that it can make you die at any time. All you need is one ingredient."

It greatly satisfied my perverted desire for control. This drug is truly magical.

The emperor could no longer suppress his anger. Damn, the descendants of the previous royal family had been causing trouble for so many years, and he didn't even notice it.

How much has been infiltrated?

"Why hasn't it been found out in all these years?"

The director was not sure either. After thinking for a while, he said, "I usually use special drugs to cover it up. Why is it ineffective?"

Ning Zhiwei gently stroked the sachet around her waist, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

It's not that it has lost its effect, but that a special incense has been used to stimulate and offset the previous special medicine, and the medicinal properties of the sick beauty in the body have been revealed.

Ordinary people will not be affected at all after smelling it.

Countless thoughts flashed through the emperor's mind, "Heal the princess. If anything happens to her, watch out for your heads."

"Yes."

The emperor felt anxious and uneasy when he thought about the remnants of the previous royal family who had been secretly targeting the royal family and even harming the eldest princess.

"Xiao Linfeng, check the palace thoroughly and make sure to find all the remnants of the royal family from the previous dynasty. Catch them all in one fell swoop, leaving no one alive."

He had no doubt that remnants of the previous royal family had infiltrated the palace, which made him unable to sleep or eat, and felt like a thorn in his throat.

"Yes."

Ning Zhiwei stared at Su Mingjin as if nothing had happened. Sure enough, his expression froze for a moment, but quickly returned to normal.

Rong Jing saw all of this and seemed to be thinking about something.

The emperor looked over and said, "Rong Jing, your body..."

Rong Jing cupped his hands and said, "I am much better now. Please give me your orders."

The emperor values ​​his strong ability to unravel cases the most. How could he be absent from a case like this?

"Thoroughly investigate the poisoning of the princess."

One focuses on the palace, the other focuses on the Princess's Mansion, and both sides are carried out together.

"Yes."

At this moment, there was a commotion outside and everyone was nervous. Xiao Linfeng was the first to protect the emperor.

The situation is tense and everyone is feeling uneasy.

The guard came in and said, "Your Majesty, the Prince Consort wishes to see you."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that the prince consort had returned home.

"Let him in."

Su Haozhi rushed in nervously, looking at a loss, and rushed quickly to the inner room, "Yue'er, Yue'er."

Su Mingjin pulled Su Haozhi's way and said softly, "Father, mother was poisoned by the secret medicine of the previous dynasty. Uncle Emperor has ordered a thorough investigation of the matter. Please meet the emperor first."

Su Haozhi slapped his head, walked up to the emperor and saluted a little embarrassedly, "Your Majesty, please forgive me for my impoliteness in front of you."

He misbehaved because he cared too much for his sister. The emperor did not blame him. Instead, he was pleased that he cared so much about his sister.

"Get up."

"Your Majesty, I will go see Yue'er first." Su Haozhi rushed to the inner room impatiently.

The prince couldn't help but sigh, "My uncle is such a loving and kind man, he only has eyes for my aunt."

Unexpectedly, Ning Zhiwei said, "Well, you don't have the emperor in your eyes."

It was a nice sentence, but it sounded wrong when it came out of Ning Zhiwei's mouth.

The emperor's face darkened and he felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

Su Mingjin was furious, "Ning Zhiwei, shut up." Why was she everywhere?

Ning Zhiwei glared back fiercely and bowed to the emperor, "Your Majesty, please make the decision for me."

"What's wrong with you?" The emperor got a headache when he saw her. There was no peace wherever she was.

The eldest princess was fine normally, so why did something go wrong after she came to visit?

He was not suspicious. After all, the dean said it happened more than 20 years ago.

But, I always feel that she is a bit unlucky.

Ning Zhiwei didn't care what he thought and complained loudly, "The incident at my Qingluo Villa was done by Su Mingjin. You can't cover up for him. You have to give me justice."

The emperor's face changed when he heard the voice. "What did you say?"

Wasn't this done by the eldest princess? How is it related to Su Mingjin? Is there something else going on?

He hated being taken advantage of the most.

At this time, the emperor's suspicion was completely aroused.

Ning Zhiwei was well aware of the emperor's serious suspicion. There were some things she could not tell him directly because others would not believe her and would even suspect that she had ulterior motives.

However, I will firmly believe in what I find out.

All she could do was to raise these doubts and let him investigate them himself.

She said indignantly, "He was also the one who assassinated Lord Rong, the Minister of the Dali Temple."

"You're talking nonsense." Su Mingjin was fearless and not anxious at all.

He believed that the cleanup was done very cleanly without any mistakes.

"I have evidence." Ning Zhiwei turned over her little hand, and her tender white palm held a small token with the word "Jin" on it.

"I found this when I was cleaning Qingluo Villa. Excuse me, Prince Jin has never been to the villa, how could the token be left there?"

Su Mingjin was stunned. How could this be?

After looking at it again and again, it was indeed his token. What a weird thing! Could it be that his subordinates accidentally dropped it?

The emperor's face was as gloomy as water, his eagle-like eyes were full of suspicion, "Mingjin, how do you explain it?"

The emperor's majesty emerged spontaneously, and his unparalleled momentum shocked the entire audience and made them tremble.

Su Mingjin felt unprecedented pressure, his heart was pounding like thunder, and beads of sweat were oozing from his forehead. What should he do?
