The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

The Right Assistant Minister of the Ministry of War looked at Shen Jiarou in shock and said, "Princess Regent, please don't go too far."

Shen Jiarou sneered: "Since you haven't done anything wrong, why are you afraid of swearing?"

The Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of War choked: "I..."

Ji Chenyu urged at the right time: "My dear, I believe in you, you can't let me down."

The Minister of War standing by was panicked when he heard this: Damn it, how could that bandit hear it?

Forced into a corner, the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of War had to raise his hand and swear again.

"If there is even one falsehood in what I say, I will be struck by lightning."

As soon as he finished speaking, thunder suddenly sounded in the sky and everyone was startled. Although Shen Jiarou appeared calm and composed on the surface, she was also shocked in her heart.

She just said it casually, but it really thundered?

The Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of War turned pale and collapsed to the ground in fear.

Luo Cheng exclaimed in surprise: "Your Majesty, it really is thunder. The Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of War really lied."

Shen Feimo sneered, "Mr. Right Assistant Minister of the Ministry of War, look, even God can't stand it anymore, why don't you tell the truth quickly?"

The Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of War did not expect that there would actually be thunder, and at this moment he was extremely panicked.

"Your Majesty, the regent princess, it was all ordered by the Minister of War, and I just followed his orders."

The Minister of War was shocked: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"I'm not talking nonsense." The Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of War knelt down and crawled to Shen Jiarou to beg for mercy.

"Princess Regent, I am really following orders. Please believe me."

The Minister of War was so angry that his face turned blue. He wanted to kick the Right Vice Minister of War, which frightened him so much that he trembled.

Shen Feimo rushed out to block it, and the Minister of War did not dare to act rashly again.

But Ji Chenyu, who witnessed all this, had a face as black as the bottom of a pot.

"How dare you, Minister of War, deliberately hurt someone right under my nose."

The Minister of War was startled: Oops, I was too complacent just now.

The Minister of War knelt down and apologized: "Your Majesty, I was just angry, please forgive me."

"Hmph, forgive me? You are the first one who dares to hurt someone under my face. Come here, arrest the Minister of War for me, and the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of War, please continue."

The Minister of War looked devastated: It's over, everything is over.

The Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of War felt relieved when he saw that he was being held hostage.

"Your Majesty, the Regent Princess, the Minister of War and the Noble Consort have always wanted the beloved Princess Heshun to marry. In particular, the Noble Consort wants Princess Heshun to be her daughter-in-law in order to coerce the Regent Princess into doing things for them."

Ji Chenyu was so angry: "Asshole, this is the person you can covet, it's just wishful thinking, how outrageous."

Shen Jiarou clenched her fists tightly. She was so angry that she wanted to kill someone. One or two people were thinking about her daughter and wanted her help. She really wanted to get rid of those people one by one to prevent future troubles.

The Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of War suppressed his fear and continued, "The Noble Concubine and the Minister of War want to support the Tenth Prince to ascend the throne, but he is unwilling. So they want to choose one of his descendants and let the ministers in the court put pressure on the emperor to adopt the child to you."

As an emperor, what he could not accept the most was being treated like a fool by others. Ji Chenyu was so angry that he picked up the teacup and threw it to the ground, and the cup immediately broke into pieces.

Except for the extremely angry Shen Jiarou, everyone immediately knelt down.

Luo Cheng quickly reminded: "Your Majesty, please pay attention to the dragon's body."

Ji Chenyu pointed at the Right Assistant Minister of the Ministry of War and ordered, "Continue."

"There is another reason for kidnapping the prince consort. They want to use this to get silver, one hundred thousand taels."

Luo Cheng and others took a deep breath. How dare the Minister of War ask for such a sum? One hundred thousand taels of silver, he thought it was just cabbage and could be given away at will.

Shen Jiarou drew out her sword and placed it on the shoulder of the Minister of War, scaring him so much that he dared not move easily. After all, swords have no eyes.

"Minister of War, what did I, Shen Jiarou, do to deserve your scheming against me? You even coveted my beloved eldest daughter and even kidnapped my son-in-law. You even want a ransom of 100,000 taels of silver. You really dare to think that."

"Princess Regent, you can't listen to his one-sided words. He is slandering me."

"Slander? Why didn't he slander other people, but you? Do you think there's no one left in the Princess Regent's Mansion? Do you think I'm dead? Or do you think I'm a soft persimmon that you won't get angry at? "

Zhang Zirou stepped forward to remind and comfort Shen Jiarou: "Princess, please do not hurt him. The Emperor will take care of it for you."

Ji Chenyu suddenly came to his senses. He was afraid that the Fourth Princess would kill the Minister of War with a single sword while she was angry.

"Fourth sister, calm down. It's not worth getting your hands dirty for a scum like that."

Nami also became anxious: "Yes, Princess."

Shen Jiarou listened to the advice and took back the sword from his neck.

"Tell me, where did you take the prince consort?"

The Minister of War shook his head and said, "I really don't know. We only kidnapped him in the village. We didn't intend to kill the prince consort. We just beat him up a few times."

When Shen Jiarou heard this, she wanted to raise the sword again, and Zhang Zirou quickly hugged her.

"Princess, please stay calm. The young masters are waiting for you at home."

Shen Jiarou was so angry that she threw her long swords to the ground. Hearing the sound of the long swords falling to the ground, the Minister of War and the Right Vice Minister of War were startled.

The Minister of War loves power and money, but he also values ​​his life.

"Princess Regent, I really did not arrange for anyone to hold the prince consort hostage. Please believe me."

Shen Jiarou sneered: "Even if the prince consort was not held hostage by you again, it is still your fault. The time and place are so coincidental, who knows if you and Leping Kingdom discussed this together."

The Minister of War shook his head repeatedly: "No, I'm really not an old minister."

Shen Jiarou no longer looked at him: "Brother Emperor, your concubine was involved in this incident, please give me an explanation."

Ji Chenyu looked at Luo Cheng and said, "Go, banish Concubine Li to the cold palace, deprive her of all her posthumous titles and salaries, and put all the people in her palace in jail, especially Nanny Qin who is beside her."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Luo Cheng led the guards to the palace of the noble concubine, and went straight to everyone in the palace, arresting anyone he saw.

"Catch them all at our house."

"Yes, Eunuch Luo."

The noble concubine was grabbed by two guards without any courtesy. At this moment, they were acting on the emperor's orders and showed no respect or gentleness to the noble concubine.

The noble concubine who was escorted out was cursing all the way.

"How dare you! You all don't want to live anymore."

"I am your noble concubine. How dare you arrest me?"

Luo Chengdu felt that he was tired of listening to the same few words over and over again.

Seeing Luo Cheng, Concubine Dowager Gui became even more unfriendly to the people around Ji Chenyu.

"Luo Cheng, please tell them to let me go." Both of her arms were hurting.

Luo Cheng smiled indifferently: "Noble Concubine, oh no, you are no longer a noble concubine now. The emperor deprives you of all your posthumous titles and salaries."

The Imperial Concubine was shocked: "Has Ji Chenyu been conferred a title? I am his elder, and I am the Imperial Concubine of the previous Emperor. How dare he do that?"
