The Regent's Koi Princess

next day

Asakazonomiya

In the study, the little emperor trembled in his heart as he watched his uncle Wang opposite him reviewing memorials with a gloomy face.

The situation was a bit awkward.

As an emperor he had nothing to do, but as a regent he was extremely busy.

The little emperor wailed in his heart: he felt like a waste.

It has been nearly an hour and a half since he was summoned to the study, and at this moment he has no idea what is wrong with this King of Hell.

I don't dare to leave, it's uncomfortable to stay here.

"Uncle Wang...you"

He wanted to ask if he was summoned here just to watch him review memorials?

Just when he was at a loss for words and wanted to ask, the door of the study was opened and Chen Zheng strode in.

"Your servant greets His Majesty, and Your Highness."

Chen Zheng walked to the desk, bowed, looked at Jiang Che and replied: "News came from the Ministry of Justice Prison that Yu Yanran committed suicide by taking poison out of fear of punishment."

"Ah"

Upon hearing this, the man threw the memorial in his hand on the desk, looking as if he understood everything.

“I have long guessed that once the news of the maid being imprisoned was known by that old fox Zhao Zhoucheng, how could he allow her to betray him alive?

But that’s it!

This also shows one thing, that is, the people in the Ministry of Justice are his Zhao Zhoucheng’s people.”

After Jiang Che finished speaking, he leaned lazily on the back of the chair with his right elbow resting on the armrest. He stretched out his right index finger and gently touched his temple. He looked at the little emperor indifferently and slowly said: "How about it, Your Majesty, what do you think after listening to what Guard Chen said?

Are you surprised why that maidservant was thrown into prison by me?"

As the man finished speaking, the little emperor's heart suddenly tightened, and beads of sweat broke out on his forehead. He forced himself to remain calm, not daring to look directly into Jiang Che's deep eyes that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts. Instead, he lowered his eyelids slightly, and unconsciously clasped his hands together, his fingertips trembling slightly due to nervousness.

"Uncle Emperor means... that slave girl..."

He tried hard to recall the situation in the court, and answered in a soft but trembling voice: "Uncle, could it be that...she is the spy secretly planted by the Left Censor to find out the movements of the court?"

When he mentioned the words "ears and eyes", he swallowed his saliva almost subconsciously, as if these two words weighed a thousand pounds and made him breathless.

He has always known that the Left Censor Zhao Zhoucheng was at odds with his uncle and regarded the Right Censor Tang Baokun as his enemy.

At this critical juncture, he sent someone into the palace and made himself favor her for no apparent reason. If you say there is no conspiracy, even a fool would not believe it.

The study was so quiet for a moment that the only sounds could be heard were the occasional chirping of birds outside the window and the little emperor's own rapid heartbeat.

Jiang Che raised his eyelids, sneered, and sneered: "Then does the emperor know where the maid was captured? And why was she captured?"

"I……"

Looking at the handsome face of the man that instantly cooled down, the little emperor broke out in a cold sweat on his back, and he had a bold guess in his mind.

Maid? Zhao Zhoucheng?

So, what the uncle meant was that the slave wanted to...

But it was just a guess, he still didn't believe that Zhao Zhoucheng would be so bold.

"My nephew is stupid, please tell me, uncle."

At the critical moment, the little emperor suddenly had an idea. He should not be too smart. After all, he was the king of a country, but he was tricked by a maid.

There must have been a reason why I favored that maid that time, otherwise, how could I favor her so easily?

Jiang Che looked at the little emperor with a headache, then closed his eyes and stopped looking at him: "Guard Chen, answer for me."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Chen Zheng bowed to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, the maid was caught in the imperial kitchen while she was poisoning your soup.

The poison she used is a kind of poison that will cause the intestines to rupture and all internal organs to be damaged if consumed."

Plop.

The little emperor fell off his chair and fell to the ground.

I saw that his face was pale, his hands were on the ground, his eyes were wide open in disbelief, the air around him seemed to freeze, and even breathing became difficult.

He looked up at Jiang Che, his eyes full of fear and confusion, his lips trembling, "So, Yushi Zuo wants to kill me? Why would he do that? I have been very kind to him, all the favors and trust I have shown him over the years, have they all gone to waste?"

As he said this, he stood up angrily, but his legs were weak and he almost fell again. Chen Zheng quickly caught him.

The little emperor struggled to stand firm, anger boiling in his chest. He strode to the window, his hands clenched into fists, his nails digging deeply into his palms, as if he wanted to vent all his anger and confusion on this innocent window frame.

Outside the window, the sun was still shining brightly, but it couldn't shine into his currently cold heart.

He turned around, his eyes were as sharp as torches, staring directly at Jiang Che: "Uncle, I want to personally interrogate Zhao Zhoucheng and find out the conspiracy behind this! I want him to know the consequences of betraying me!"

Although his voice was trembling, it revealed an unquestionable determination.

The little emperor turned around and prepared to leave, and continued angrily: "I will immediately arrest him and bring him to the palace. I will interrogate him personally."

"stupid"

Jiang Che opened his eyes and looked at him, then slowly exhaled.

"Where's the evidence? The maid is dead. How can you arrest him without any evidence?"

"I……"

The little emperor, who was so angry just now, instantly turned into a deflated ball, with his eyes drooping, shoulders slumped, and an expression that showed he had lost all hope in life.

He murmured to himself: "Should I just let him get away with it? I am the ruler of a country, should I just watch him do whatever he wants? I won't accept that."

"Ah"

Jiang Che sneered: "Even if you are unwilling, you have to hold it in for me."

Chen Zheng...

Trying hard to hold back laughter.

Little Emperor: ＠_＠%&$%$

I want to swear and curse your mother!

Suddenly I remembered something.

Isn’t your mother my grandmother?

I want to curse! But I feel like a street scoundrel.

Uncle's!

It's wrong no matter what.

I cursed in my heart but smiled in front of him: "Uncle, what should I do next? Please tell me clearly."

Jiang Che glanced at him, wanting to beat him up seeing the cowardly look of someone who wanted to rebel but didn't have the courage, and wanted to curse people but was a coward.

The king of a country is not as good as his little princess.

That little thing would glare at him and jump up and down when she was not satisfied. If he dared to make her angry, she would not let him hold her while sleeping for three days.

"Just pretend nothing happened and be clear about it. The most important thing is that if Zhao Zhoucheng sends a woman to you again, send her to the laundry room.

Lust is like a sword hanging over your head. If you are not greedy for sex, others will not have the chance to harm you.

After all these troublesome matters are resolved, you can then think about establishing a concubine and making her queen.

Okay, go back quickly and do what you need to do. Just don't let him see it."

"Yes"

When the little emperor heard that he was asked to leave, he stood up and nodded to Jiang Che, "Then I will return to the palace first. The rest of the matter will be decided by my uncle."

After saying that, the little emperor ran away very fast.

It’s not that he is a coward, it’s just that his uncle is too majestic.
