The princess traveled through time for a year to help the prince build his kingdom and then left

Just one day after Qi Zhendong was taken to the Dali Temple, he confessed everything he knew.

“Empress Qi has repeatedly instigated the common people to attack Prince Yan and his wife, planning a series of assassination attempts against them.

These conspiracies and intrigues make me feel extremely stressed and painful, and I know that I am doing something that goes against my conscience.

However, I, a common people, could not disobey Concubine Qi's orders and could only endure it all silently.

Every time I receive a new mission, I feel a sense of despair.

The common people have been secretly looking for opportunities to escape this predicament and regain their freedom and dignity. "

What Qi Zhendong confessed made Zhao Zhiqi, the Minister of Dali Temple, shudder, and also made him shocked and angry at Concubine Qi's behavior.

Zhao Zhiqi knew very well what this confession meant to him, so he decided to submit it to the Eastern Emperor in secret.

Zhao Zhiqi found a suitable time and quietly entered the palace, avoiding the attention of others.

He came to Dongdi's study and knocked on the door gently. After hearing the knock, Dongdi asked Zhao Zhiqi to come in.

Zhao Zhiqi walked into the study and saluted the emperor.

Then, he carefully handed Qi Zhendong's confession to Dongdi and explained to him the ins and outs of the confession.

After Dongdi took the confession, his brows frowned slightly and his eyes quickly scanned the words on the paper.

Dongdi's expression gradually became solemn.

Every line of words was like a sharp sword, piercing his heart. He held the confession tightly, his fingers trembling slightly, as if he wanted to grab something.

His eyes became sharper, as if he could see through the paper to the truth behind it. His lips were tightly closed, and he said nothing, but from his tense muscles and slightly trembling body, it can be seen that he was experiencing a huge wave of emotions in his heart.

Dongdi took a deep breath and tried to calm himself.

However, the contents of the confession made him unable to calm down.

His expression became more and more serious, his brows were furrowed, and sparks of anger flashed in his eyes.

After reading the confession, Dongdi was silent for a while, then raised his head and looked at Zhao Zhiqi.

"This confession is indeed very important. Let's not make it public for now. We still need to investigate and verify it further." Zhao Zhiqi nodded in agreement.

Dongdi then asked: "How do you think this matter should be handled?"

Zhao Zhiqi thought for a moment and replied:

"Your Majesty, I think we should not alert other officials yet and conduct a secret investigation. At the same time, we should strengthen the security of the capital to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos."

Dongdi nodded, indicating that he approved of this plan.

He said: "Okay, I'll do as you say. But this matter must be kept secret and not let anyone know."

Zhao Zhiqi nodded solemnly to show that he understood.

Zhao Zhiqi left the palace and immediately began to arrange the follow-up investigation.

And Emperor Dong sat quietly in the study, staring at the confession in his hand, frowning slightly, thinking thoughtfully.

He knew that the impact of this confession would be like a storm, sweeping across the entire palace and court.

Will Concubine Qi be banished to the cold palace?

This will undoubtedly cause turmoil in the harem and changes in the power structure.

Yet, if this is not done, how can she be held accountable for her crimes?

Order a thorough investigation into this matter?

But will this cause even bigger waves?

There are so many people involved. Is it possible to get to the bottom of this matter?

Dongdi fell into deep thought. He understood that this decision would have a profound impact on the country.

The relationship between the Crown Prince, the Prime Minister's Office and Concubine Qi is extremely complicated, and one move can affect the entire body.

Any wrong decision may lead to irreversible consequences.

At this moment, Dongdi felt unprecedented pressure and confusion.

He needs to carefully weigh the pros and cons and find a solution that can both maintain the dignity of the royal family and maintain national stability.
