After rebirth, I married the emperor's uncle and overthrew my ex-husband's kingdom
Chapter 309 What a difference between relatives!
You are still complacent even when death is imminent. Do you really think there is an impenetrable wall in the world?
Yesterday, the little girl from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion came to him and told him the whole story and gave him some factual evidence.
The emperor would most likely ask him to investigate the matter thoroughly, but that little girl was so mean, so he kept it to himself for now and let the third prince learn a lesson.
Zhao Qingming never expected that the Third Prince, who seemed to be so upright and honest in public, was such a profit-seeking person that he dared to exchange the key figures in more than 30 murders in Qingzhou for a mine of Prince Rong.
He used to have the General's Mansion as his in-laws, so what did he need the iron mine for? Everyone in the world knew Sima Zhao's intention!
The emperor was very suspicious, and this was the first thing he thought of.
He flew into a rage, "Zhao Qingming, you are the judge of this case, let's see who else is involved!"
Zhao Qingming stepped forward, received the order and then stepped back.
"The imperial court has issued a clear order prohibiting private mining of iron ore. The Third Prince knowingly violated the rules. I'm afraid it will be very useful, right?"
"The emperor is guilty of the same crime as the common people when he breaks the law. The third prince knowingly breaks the law, his crime should be even more severe!"
The third prince was still waiting for someone to plead for him, but he didn't expect that those who stood up in the court were all against him, and the ministers he had originally stood on the side of all of them shrank their necks and pretended to be dead.
The emperor was already furious, and now being provoked by the prince's men, he became even more furious.
"Come here, take Lu Lingye to the Ministry of Justice's prison and execute him on a certain day!"
As soon as these words came out, the third prince collapsed to the ground.
"Father, I am innocent! This Qingling Mountain originally belonged to Prince Rong, and he gave it to me!"
Prince Rong had long guessed that he would implicate him, so he pretended to be shocked and looked at him, "Third Prince, I have no grudge against you, why did you frame me?"
He used Qingling Mountain to exchange for witnesses and evidence of more than 30 murders in Qingzhou. He bet that the third prince would not dare to tell the truth.
"Prince Rong, Qingling Mountain originally belonged to you!"
The third prince naturally did not dare to tell this matter. If he did, the image he had maintained in the past would completely collapse.
Even if the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion could protect him, who would dare to trust him in the future?
"Third Prince, catch the adulterers, catch the thieves, and seize the stolen goods," said Prince Rong, with a look of hatred. "You know why you secretly mined the iron ore. You want to shift the blame to me, so please show me the evidence!"
Of course there is no evidence, if there was, just produce it!
The third prince now deeply regretted that he had acted so ruthlessly and did not leave a way out for himself.
He was speechless and could only wait for the people from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion to find a way to rescue him.
The Imperial Guards took him to the Ministry of Justice prison.
On the other side, Bai Youyou was standing on a teahouse opposite Mingzhu Tower. She was hiding by the window, her eyes fixed on Bai Yaoyao in the store.
She always felt that something was wrong with Lu Qinan's matter.
Lu Qinan in the book was not alive, but she remembered clearly that she did not die at this time!
If it wasn't an accident, then someone must have predicted the outcome and changed it.
She suspected that this person was Bai Yaoyao.
Suddenly, Lu Qi pulled her over.
"call out!"
A tiny silver needle shot over and landed where Bai Youyou had just been.
Bai Youyou's expression suddenly changed when she looked at the silver needle that was nine points into the wood.
Lu Qi glanced in the direction where the silver needle came from and said in a heavy tone: "Bai Yaoyao has several secret guards protecting her."
Naturally, the Yongning Marquis' Mansion does not have the ability to train secret guards, and even if it did, it would not give them to Bai Yaoyao.
Bai Youyou guessed that it was the Marquis of Yongning or the prince's man.
"Was there anyone around her before?"
Lu Qi shook his head. "She hadn't had it when I was monitoring her before. I think it happened recently."
There really wasn't one before, but ever since the Qingling Mountain incident, the prince saw how powerful Bai Yaoyao was, and fearing that she might get into an accident, he assigned four powerful secret guards to protect her secretly.
Now that Bai Yaoyao has so many people protecting her, it would be difficult to monitor her secretly.
The maid beside Bai Yaoyao downstairs whispered something in her ear, and she looked towards the teahouse.
Bai Youyou looked at the curve of her lips and the obvious provocation in her eyes, and her hands at her sides suddenly clenched.
Bai Youyou pursed her lips with a serious expression, "Let Lu San come find me later!"
"Yes!"
The Duke of Zhenguo Mansion is now under her management. Lu Qi is not as casual as before and is much more respectful.
The third prince was thrown into prison, and the queen, who was also under house arrest in the palace, was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
"Quick, send someone to find the old lady of the Zhenguogong!"
"My lady, Zhao Zhong sent someone to say that the Third Prince has personally visited the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and said that the old lady has agreed. You don't have to panic."
"Has the old lady agreed?"
After hearing this, the Queen barely calmed down and said, "Since you have agreed, why is there no one in the court today to plead for my son?"
She gritted her teeth and said, "The emperor ordered to execute them on a chosen day. If he ordered to kill them on the spot, then what's the use of them?!"
"Your Majesty, please calm down. This incident happened suddenly and I think the people in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion didn't have time to prepare."
"It's been three days, how can it be so sudden!"
"People in the Zhenguo Mansion always keep their promises. They won't easily agree if they are not absolutely sure."
The Queen snorted coldly, "When he came to me to ask for the life-saving pill, he was so anxious that he wanted to break into the palace. Now, they don't know how to be anxious unless the knife is on the neck of his own family!"
The old nanny advised: "There are differences between relatives and strangers. Now we need help from others, so we can only wait."
The general's mansion was gone, and the queen now had few people to use. In addition, the iron mine incident was a serious crime, so the only thing to do now was to wait.
"What a difference between relatives!"
The queen poked her palm with her long nails, and her eyes moved when she thought of the Duke Zhenguo's granddaughter Bai Youyou.
There is a difference between relatives. Now that they have lost power and the prince has gained power, if they can form a marriage relationship with the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, can they still sit idly by?
Bai Youyou doesn't know yet that the Queen has set her sights on her. At this moment, she is instructing Lu San to send someone to monitor Bai Yaoyao.
Lu Si came back and reported to her that he had found the exact location of the third son of the Bai family.
"Bring him back!" Bai Youyou narrowed his eyes slightly, "Remember to make a big fuss, the bigger the better!"
Lu Si was confused, but he still followed orders without asking why.
Lu Si took the third son of the Bai family and paraded through the city, making the matter known to everyone. The first person to jump up was Prince Rong.
"What? That bastard was caught by the people from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion?!"
Previously he was lying in the rocking chair and humming a little tune comfortably, but now when he heard that the third son of the Bai family had been arrested, he panicked and almost fell off the rocking chair.
"Didn't I tell you to search all over the capital? How could you not find a living person right under your noses?"
Whether it was the Qingzhou incident or the Qingling Mountain incident, if the third son of the Bai family revealed it, he would not be able to escape the blame! !
