Seize Jiaoluan

When Song Mingzhu heard that she was going to be sent to the authorities, she suddenly struggled to free herself from Jingque's hand, picked up the dagger on the ground and said, "Don't bother with that. I don't want to continue living anyway."

She looked at Song Shiwei and smiled, "You are right, it is all my own fault. I deserve what I have ended up like this today.

From the day you entered the mansion, I looked down on you and wanted to trample you under my feet.

My mother and I have done everything we can to prevent you from becoming the wife of a number one scholar. We hope that you will be divorced."

Thinking about what she had done in the past, Song Mingzhu realized how bad she was, but she was unwilling to admit that it was her fault.

People like her have long been beyond salvation and should not be living in this world.

She said: "I only have one last request, I hope you can agree to it.

When I die, bury me next to my parents, okay, sister?"

Song Shiwei was stunned for a moment. She had known Song Mingzhu for so long, but she had never sincerely called her sister.

But she knew that when she called her sister just now, she meant it sincerely.

She nodded: "I promise you."

"Thank you."

As Song Mingzhu spoke, she resolutely slit her throat with the dagger in her hand.

The reason why she was so cruel to herself was that she was afraid that she would not die.

At the beginning, Shen Linchuan stabbed her chest with the golden hairpin, but she miraculously survived.

She used a golden hairpin to pry open the chains on her body and was able to escape.

It's just that she was in so much pain, her skin was burning and her chest was hurting, but she didn't die.

She didn't want to endure such pain a second time, so she would rather die quickly.

Song Mingzhu's pupils slowly dilated, and finally the picture froze on Song Shiwei's face before returning to darkness.

At this moment, all the grudges and hatreds have disappeared without a trace.

"Qingqing."

When Xiao Jingheng arrived, he saw two bodies on the ground.

He walked over quickly and asked Song Shiwei: "Are you okay?"

Song Shiwei shook her head: "Song Mingzhu killed Shen Linchuan and then committed suicide."

She sighed and said, "It happened too suddenly, and Shen Linchuan didn't say where he hid the things."

Seeing that she was still thinking about the suicide note, Xiao Jingheng frowned and hugged her in his arms and said, "It doesn't matter whether you have that thing or not."

Song Shiwei understood what he meant, even though they already knew that the real culprit behind the scenes was His Majesty.

But she still wanted to know what was written in Shen Linchuan's father's suicide note?

However, with the death of Shen Linchuan, the whereabouts of the suicide note became a mystery again.

Xiao Jingheng was a little worried. His father's men had set up a tight net around his palace to wait for Shen Linchuan, but they did not expect that Shen Linchuan would appear here.

If my father knew that Qingqing was the last person to see Shen Linchuan, he would probably become suspicious.

He held Song Shiwei's hand and said, "Stay at home for the time being and don't go anywhere."

Seeing that he looked uneasy, Song Shiwei asked, "But what happened?"

Xiao Jingheng explained: "Father is also looking for something in Shen Linchuan's hand.

Although you don't know the whereabouts of that thing, the emperor is very suspicious and I'm afraid he will do something bad to you."

Ever since he found out that his father was the mastermind behind the incident, he couldn't stop worrying and being afraid.

He realized that he seemed to have never understood his father.

He also didn't want to go to the point where father and son would become enemies, but the prerequisite was that he would never touch his beloved.

……

Shen Linchuan's death did not seem to cause any waves. The capital was as calm as ever, and His Majesty did not take any action.

In a blink of an eye, the day came when the envoys from Beiming would arrive in the capital, and Emperor Hui gave Xiao Jingheng full responsibility for the important task of receiving the envoys.

In order to show respect to the envoys from Beiming, Xiao Jingheng personally led the court officials to greet them at the city gate.

Song Shiwei had been staying at home for a few days and finally got the chance to go out.

She and Qin Yueyao mingled among the people, looking forward to the city gate.

Qin Yueyao smiled and asked her, "Are you nervous?"

Song Shiwei shrugged and said, "Why should I be nervous?

As for you, the envoys' arrival in the capital also means that the day of my brother's departure is near.

How are you getting along these days? Have you thought about what to do in the future? "

Mentioning this, Qin Yueyao couldn't help feeling a little sad.

Although she swore that she didn't care about the future, the longer she was in contact with Ye Xun'an, the more delusions she would have.

When the day of separation really comes, she doesn't know if she can still wave goodbye to him calmly?

She sighed and said, "This man is so much my style. What should I do if I can't bear to let him go?"

Song Shiwei rolled her eyes at him: "What else can I do? Use all your skills to make him fall in love with you. It would be best if he could give up his kingdom for you!"

Qin Yueyao's eyes turned, stared at her and asked, "Are you planning to hand over your kingdom of Beiming to me?"

"Oh, you figured it out?"

Song Shiwei said with a smile: "Don't you think that unifying the world is the true way to serve the country and the people?

We all live under this sunshine, so why should we separate ourselves? "

Qin Yueyao was surprised and asked her, "Are you serious? Does the prince know?"

Song Shiwei shook her head: "I haven't told him, but I will make it happen when I return to Beiming."

She stroked her chin and said, "My father won't think I'm a traitor, right?"

Qin Yueyao: "..."

If this isn’t a traitor, then what is? The daughter he finally found actually wanted to take over his kingdom. She is really a good daughter.

At this time, the sound of drums was heard in the distance, and it was the envoys from Beiming entering the capital.

I saw a military flag embroidered with the mythical beast of the North Sea leading the way, and a huge team of carriages entered one after another and finally stopped.

Xiao Jingheng led the Ministry of Rites to greet them. He said in a clear voice, "Nanli Regent Prince Xiao Jingheng respectfully welcomes the envoy from Beiming."

"You are very polite, Your Majesty."

A man's voice came from the carriage, and then the curtain was opened, and a man in gorgeous clothes stepped out of the carriage.

He bowed to Xiao Jingheng and said, "Northern Ming Crown Prince Ye Xun'an greets the Regent."

Ye Xun'an had left the capital earlier to join the envoy team.

Today, he changed his usual plain and elegant attire and put on gorgeous clothes that symbolized his status. He wore a jade crown on his head, looking extremely noble and majestic.

Many women among the people were amazed by Ye Xun'an's appearance and began to discuss him in low voices.

Xiao Jingheng nodded slightly and exchanged a few words with Ye Xun'an, pretending not to know him.

At this moment, a man's suppressed cough was heard in the carriage.

Seeing this, Ye Xun'an hurriedly explained: "This time, my Queen Bei Ming and her husband are also on the mission together.

In the car are my aunt Chengyang and her husband."

As soon as he finished speaking, the people in the car opened the curtain.

Chengyang aunt looked at Xiao Jingheng through the car window, then nodded slightly and apologized: "I'm sorry, my husband is not feeling well, please forgive us for not being able to get off the car to greet the Regent."
