The tyrant is changing the plot madly because of the fake princess's voice

Zhong Chengwang stuffed the golden beans in as he walked.

The area around here is full of clear streams where one can hear the little fellow's inner thoughts, and he is not afraid of being seen at all.

He deliberately chose an angle where Kou Qiwen could see him, and slowly inserted his hand. His slow and methodical movements prolonged the torture infinitely. Even if he didn't look back, he could guess the other person's current expression -

[Ahahahahahaha, Uncle Zhong is grabbing the bamboo shoots hahahahahaha——]

[This Kou Qiwen’s eyes can actually get that big hahahaha!!]

[Help, he looks like he’s about to faint from anger, hahahahaha——]

Zhong Chengwang curled the corners of his lips into a smile.

He respectfully handed the sachet, which was confirmed to be non-toxic, to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. After the other party pretended to confirm it, he took the sachet and walked towards the direction of the little guy.

Jiang Yingcheng smiled and generously picked out the golden beans and "given" them to her Uncle Zhong on the spot.

Then, she raised the sachet in her hand, held it in the air, and compared it carefully with the one in the hand of her prince brother.

The two sachets were of exactly the same style. The one in her prince brother's hand was even more delicate. Even the strap that was broken due to being torn was almost the same as the one in her hand.

"The man has been caught red-handed!"

This is clearly the result of countless experiments conducted in advance!

Kou Qiwen: “!!!”

How did he get caught red-handed? !

With so many eyes watching, it's obvious that the golden beans were put in by your guards!!

Jiang Yingcheng turned his head away, not wanting to look at Kou Qiwen's expression, and said angrily, "What else do you have to quibble about?!"

Kou Qiwen: “…”

Kou Qiwen: “???”

This scene was so outrageous that the first thing that came to his mind was not the miserable scene of being sent to the Dali Temple for torture, but -

me?

Are you asking me?

I am asking this, I am the only one who can move my eyes, I can only watch others stuffing gold beans into the sachet, innocent me? !

The accusation in his eyes was so obvious that even though he didn't say anything, everyone present could instantly sense the grievances he was unable to express.

Even Jiang Yingcheng, who was in a state of anger, looked vague for a long time, and then quickly became confident and said, "Since you don't say anything, Chengcheng will take it as your consent!"

Chengcheng has given you a chance!

It's you who don't cherish it!

Kou Qiwen became even angrier.

The ingredients in this sachet are not afraid of being inspected.

Snow toad incense is non-toxic and is even a very good spice in itself.

However, this spice, when combined with the water fragrance, will generate an unsolvable poison gas. If ingested into the body for a long time, it will inevitably cause damage to the internal organs and cause continuous symptoms.

Thanks to the prince's generosity and kindness, as well as the other party's character of never allowing unjust, false and wrong cases to happen, he will definitely be safe this time!

only--

The eleventh princess opposite seemed to feel that the three golden beans returned to their original owners were not enough to express her gratitude. She lowered her head and picked up a dark brown purse from the series of purses on her waist, took it off, and gave it directly to the unknown guard who had wronged him in front of him.

Kou Qiwen's blood boiled and he was so angry at this scene that his eyes were wet!

Jiang Yingcheng saw it out of the corner of his eye, and froze for a moment as if he was stunned.

【Crying, crying? 】

[Are you crying already?! ]

In just a moment, he laughed out loud without any psychological burden: [Hehehe~]

"Don't worry~" Jiang Yingcheng whispered to comfort the other party, "We can cry after we are in prison!"

Kou Qiwen: “???”

Is there anyone as comforting as you?!

……

The sun sets earlier during this season.

By the time they had finished dealing with all matters in Yunxi Palace, it was already getting dark.

After everyone had dinner, the New Year's Day banquet came to an end.

Jiang Yanchuan personally led civil and military officials to Shengping Gate to see off the envoys. After the King of Changlan, who had led his men out of the palace, disappeared from everyone's sight, he waved his hand and ordered all the officials to return home.

Everyone looked at each other, bowed and said goodbye politely.

The carriages of Duke Wang and Kan Ruifeng were the last ones to arrive, and they had to separate when they reached Yunshan Road. The two men leaned their heads out of the sedan chair, greeted each other politely, and asked the coachman to turn in the direction of their own residences.

……

The night was dark.

Duke Wang followed the palace servant's instructions and walked to the door of the imperial study. He asked the guard at the door to go in and tell him that he had urgent matters that required him to see the emperor immediately.

After a while, a light and hurried sound of footsteps was heard from inside, and a moment later, the red lacquered carved wooden door in front of him was slowly opened from the inside.

Eunuch Changshun had a forced smile on his obviously frightened face and bowed to Duke Wang: "Duke Wang, please come in—"

Duke Wang hurriedly followed him in.

On the way, Duke Wang wanted to ask about Emperor Mingze's condition several times, but seeing how quiet the imperial study was, he gave up the idea.

After walking through the dim corridor and turning a corner, the light in front of me suddenly became brighter.

Emperor Mingze's deep and condensed voice sounded from the front: "What's the matter?"

Duke Wang's expression froze, and he didn't even dare to raise his head. He walked straight to the desk, lifted the hem of his robe, and knelt down immediately!

"Your Majesty!" Duke Wang said earnestly, "After the New Year's Day banquet, I have grown another year older. I feel that my physical condition is getting worse and worse. I am afraid that I can no longer bear the heavy responsibility of the court. Now I would like to ask Your Majesty for a grace to allow me to retire and return home!"

The atmosphere in the imperial study fell into stagnation. After a while——

"Just retiring?" The voice from above his head seemed to smile, "Does Mr. Wang have any other request?"

Duke Wang swallowed his saliva and encouraged himself in his heart.

Yes!

This method will definitely work!

Don’t be afraid, just do it!!

Duke Wang closed his eyes and said resolutely: "I am not thinking that I have worked hard and made great contributions, and I am bringing this to you in the hope of reward, but..."

"But if Your Majesty can agree to let me take the eleventh princess with me, I will be very grateful! !"

The imperial study was eerily quiet. Eunuch Changshun looked away with reluctance and looked at the row of people standing in the corner as if they were being punished, and sighed deeply.

I couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

If the little girl knew that someone was trying his best to protect her at this moment, she would probably be like him at this moment, with tears in her eyes.

Jiang Yanchuan leaned his elbows on the desk, clenched his fists against his forehead, and said in a low voice: "Like this."

Duke Wang saw that Emperor Mingze did not seem to have any anger in his tone, and raised his head excitedly: "Your Majesty?!"

Then, out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of his colleagues standing in a row with complicated expressions on their faces.

Kan Ruifeng, who had declared not long ago that he would rest immediately after returning home, lowered his head, and when their eyes met, there was a common sense of embarrassment and awkwardness.

Duke Wang: “…”
