To support exiled officials, start by worshipping the God of Wealth

Empress Xu's eyes were filled with coldness. She curled her lips and said, "How could the Prime Minister do anything wrong? I don't know how my family has offended the Prime Minister, and he actually murdered her and her unborn child!"

Prime Minister Zhou said in horror: "Empress, even if I had a hundred guts, I would not dare to frame the Crown Princess!"

Empress Xu waved her hand and Zhou Ruier was brought up.

After just half an hour of severe torture, Zhou Ruier was covered in wounds. She knelt on the ground, dumb and mumbling, "Father, save me."

She placed her last hope on the prime minister next to her.

But when she met her father's cold eyes, she trembled all over, and she knew that she was abandoned by her father. Oh, yes, not abandoned, because her father never cared about her.

She has always been the abandoned one.

Prime Minister Zhou clasped his hands together and said, "Did this rebellious girl offend the Crown Princess? She was originally the daughter of a lowly concubine in the palace, and she doesn't know etiquette. She said she loves the Crown Prince. I thought that she was old and would die of old age in the courtyard if she didn't get married. So she wanted to get close to him and begged him, and he accepted her. Now that she is married to him, if she does something disobedient, he can kill her at will."

After hearing this, Zhou Ruier collapsed to the ground.

Empress Xu didn't believe such nonsense at all, and there was a sharp look in her eyes.

"The daughter of a lowly concubine? She actually has such great power that she brought in unusual venomous snakes, and in the name of saving the Crown Princess, she brought hundreds of deadly servants to besiege the Crown Prince's Mansion! Prime Minister Zhou, you have to give me an explanation!"

She stepped forward, the edges of her white shoes stained red.

The venomous snake moved in front of Zhou Ruier and the Prime Minister.

Zhou Ruier grabbed the edge of the queen's clothes and said, "I didn't do that. I didn't do that. Li Qingcheng must have put it in the Crown Princess's bedroom. I really came to protect my sister."

Disgusting! Empress Xu raised her foot and kicked the man away.

Jiusu asked: "Who gave you the hundreds of Deadpools you brought?"

Zhou Ruier looked to the side guiltily, but was slapped hard in the face. It hurt so much that blood flowed from the corner of her mouth. Her whole body felt like it was falling apart. She smiled bitterly, missing the gentle prince so much.

If you want to survive, you have to rely on yourself.

she muttered.

"Yes…"

Prime Minister Zhou cursed, "You actually hired someone to kill the Crown Princess! You bring shame to our Prime Minister's Office!"

"I..." she said weakly.

Prime Minister Zhou was afraid that she would expose him, so he spoke nervously, trying to suppress her voice: "From now on, our relationship as father and daughter ends here!"

Zhou Ruier's eyes were dull and her cheeks were swollen. She smiled after hearing his words.

"Father."

She looked up and repeated.

"My father said that the Crown Princess was in danger and asked me to open the door and break in. In fact, he wanted to kill the Crown Princess."

"Rebellious girl! How dare you slander me!" Prime Minister Zhou was just raising his hand, and this slap might knock someone unconscious.

Jiusu stopped him and said, "Does the Prime Minister want to beat someone to death so that there is no evidence of guilt?"

Prime Minister Zhou breathed a sigh of relief and put down his hand. He looked gloomy and said, "It's easy to find a pretext to accuse someone of a crime. The crown prince is the foundation of a country. How dare you harm his child?"

However, as to why.

The two knew it well.

But the queen would not say that the emperor had high hopes for Xu Cairong, and her random guesses would definitely displease the emperor.

Jiusu's eyes flashed: "You'll have to ask the Prime Minister about this."

Prime Minister Zhou pointed at Jiusu angrily. The appearance of this person in front of him had turned Shengjing upside down. His son-in-law's status had been declining again and again, and his nephew's death was also related to her.

He clenched his back teeth.

"Why do you have to go against me? Wen Bao is dead, when will the revenge end? This matter was entirely done by Zhou Rui'er alone. She was jealous of the Crown Princess and wanted to compete for her favor, so she became vicious!"

Empress Xu stroked her newly done nails and sneered, "Zhou Rui'er, is this what the Prime Minister said?"

Zhou Ruier shook her head, as if she had thought of something.

Take out the token from your arms.

"My Lady, this is evidence that my father gave to me to mobilize the guards."

Empress Xu touched the token, which could mobilize soldiers. She sneered, "The Prime Minister really spent a lot of money."

Prime Minister Zhou touched his clothes and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. He asked Zhou Ruier in panic, "Did you go to the study and steal the token of the Prime Minister?"

Zhou Ruier shuddered: "Yes."

Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Zhou bowed deeply and said sadly, "My Queen, I am innocent! It was this rebellious girl who wanted to kill the Crown Princess and monopolize the Crown Prince's favor. Let me tell you from the bottom of my heart, she attacked the Crown Prince's Mansion so blatantly, and everyone would think that it was me who ordered it. Isn't this too stupid?"

The Prime Minister is not stupid.

It is an unfathomable gray wolf.

Empress Xu said calmly, "Taking an unconventional approach is also a good idea. If the Prime Minister has any grievances, he should speak to the Emperor."

Jiusu did not participate in this matter.

She was very sleepy, so she went back home to catch up on her sleep.

When I woke up, it was already noon.

Zitan went to the small kitchen and brought a bowl of lotus root starch and glutinous rice. She carefully turned it over with a spoon and told the young lady the news from the palace: "After we left the Prince's Mansion, the Queen knelt in front of the Imperial Study and begged the Emperor to punish the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Jiu Su guessed.

"But the Emperor did not punish the Prime Minister?"

Zitan nodded: "The emperor originally stayed indoors, but the prime minister came all the way from the palace gate with a bramble on his back on his knees, so he had to come out. He first comforted the queen, and then went to welcome the prime minister."

Jiusu looked outside the yard.

Koushao was flying a kite with Zhongqin. One was still, while the other was moving, and they looked like a flowing painting, extremely free.

She withdrew her gaze and put down the celadon bowl.

"Xu Cairong went to the border. The emperor doted on him. He must have needed the prime minister's family to provide support for Xu Cairong. It is impossible for him to fall so easily. I guess the emperor will say that there is insufficient evidence and kill Zhou Ruier to appease the queen's anger. After that, he will increase the reward for the emperor's grandson."

Zi Tan said: "That's true, but Zhou Rui'er didn't die. She was saved by Concubine Xi."

Concubine Xi? Jiusu remembered that the two of them seemed to have some conflicts. Ajing killed Concubine Xi's brother and snatched the bride that Concubine Xi had found for her brother.

"It's true that enemies always meet on a narrow road." She raised the corner of her mouth, "The bad guys are sticking together, right?"

If she had the protection of Concubine Xi, Zhou Ruier would still have a chance to turn things around.

However, this requires waiting for the prince to come back and make a decision.

Zitan pushed open the wooden window, and the spring breeze blew in. "Miss, you should wait happily for your wedding day now. Everything else is not important anymore."

In this half month.

The Crown Princess had always lived in the palace, and the Emperor's grandson was well taken care of and grew flesh. He was born when he was only seven months old, but she and the Queen were heartbroken.

The queen wanted to give him all the good things in the palace.

Emperor Xu also often came to visit. He named his grandson Jiashuo and was very fond of children. He said happily, "The child is so cute. Concubine Xi's child must be so cute too."

Empress Xu sneered in her heart.

Then, she placed a distance between the emperor and the child, motioned Xi Xiang to take the prince away, and changed the subject.

"The day after tomorrow, Jiusu will be getting married. Can the emperor go?"

Emperor Xu said, "Originally I didn't want to go, but Concubine Xi wanted to go and take a look, so I went with her."
