"The guy from the Wang family couldn't hold it in last night. It was so funny."

Liang Chongyue didn't even raise his eyelids, just nodded lightly, waiting to hear Jing Suiyang's next report.

Before Jing Suiyang could say anything, a stack of papers was handed to Liang Chongyue:

"These are the results of the trials of Xiao Yao, the youngest son of the Xiao family, and several others. Your Highness, please take a look and see if there is anything wrong."

Liang Chongyue opened his eyes and took the things that Jing Suiyang handed to him. The handwriting on the top one looked sloppy and there were bloodstains on it, so it should be written by Xiao Yao himself.

Liang Chongyue flipped through the records above. If Xiao Yao was not lying, then the whole thing was pretty much as she expected.

After reading Xiao Yao's handwriting, Liang Chongyue flipped through the pages and found that the handwriting was obviously much clearer, which made his eyes feel comfortable.

When Liang Chongyue was looking through these things, Jing Suiyang was waiting beside him. After Liang Chongyue finished reading them all, he put them in Jing Suiyang's hands:

"Put it on the stone table over there."

Liang Chongyue was still sitting on the swing, swinging her toes wantonly, with her head down in thought without saying a word.

"Your Highness, what should we do with the people in the dark cell?"

Liang Chongyue didn't even raise his head, and spoke without hesitation:

"Chop off all of them. Keep Xiao Yao's head. This princess has a great use for it. I will go get it myself tonight. The rest will all turn into water."

Liang Chongyue lowered his head, his eyes were dark, and his voice was a little cold.

After Jing Suiyang followed His Highness to capture the Wolf Tile King alive last time, he understood what His Highness meant by turning into water directly.

After Liang Chongyue finished giving the instructions, he waved to Jing Suiyang, stood up and walked towards the bathroom.

After taking a shower, Liang Chongyue felt a lot more refreshed.

Thinking of her grandfather's appointment with her to meet at midnight tonight, Liang Chongyue spent the rest of the time studying after lunch, except for meeting with Doctor Fang.

The booklets that her scumbag father sent this time were mixed up due to various things and were delayed for too long. Her original progress should not have been like this.

Liang Chongyue flipped through the books and found that there were still seven books she hadn't read. The situation in the court was changing rapidly, and some things could only be resolved within the next two years. Otherwise, when the new generation came out, her road to power would be even longer.

By then, she would probably really become a whetstone for her younger brothers.

Liang Chongyue didn't like being disturbed when studying. He was very focused and didn't stop until dark except for eating and drinking.

"Your Highness, it will be midnight in half an hour."

Liang Chongyue didn't even raise his head, just hummed lightly. He put down the pen only after he finished writing on the paper in front of him.

After packing up everything, Liang Chongyue got up and did two sets of stretching, and only then did he feel better.

"Go prepare a waterproof cloth bag. It has to be big. This princess will need it later."

After Yun Ling took the order and left, Liang Chongyue changed into night clothes. When he opened the gate of Changshengtian, he saw Yun Ling standing outside with a cowhide bag in his hand.

"Your Highness, this is made of cowhide inside and out, so it's waterproof."

Liang Chongyue took the bag from Yun Ling and took a look at it. It was just the right size.

"You don't have to follow me, and you don't have to wait for me to come back when it's time to change my duties."

After Liang Chongyue finished speaking, he walked towards the secret cell with a cowhide bag in his hand.

Along the way, Liang Chongyue had already figured out how to use Xiao Yao's brain. Since both of them wanted to push her into a desperate situation, let's see who would kill whom first.

When Liang Chongyue arrived at the dark cell, Jing Suiyang was still downstairs, and Liang Chongyue happened to run into him when he went down.

"Your Highness, this is Xiao Yao's head. The rest of his body and the other corpses have all turned to water."

Liang Chongyue reached out and picked up Xiao Yao's head to take a look. After making sure it was correct, he put it directly into a cowhide bag. It was just the right size.

Liang Chongyue took Xiao Yao's head and left. After leaving the mansion, Liang Chongyue put the thing into his backpack to prevent blood from dripping from the seams of the cowhide bag that were not tightly sealed.

After arriving at the Duke Dingguo's Mansion, no one came to stop her this time. However, Liang Chongyue noticed that someone was watching her in the dark. She thought it must be the guards from her grandfather's mansion.

Liang Chongyue went straight to her grandfather's study. When she arrived, the lights were still on and there were faint sounds of conversation.

When Liang Chongyue was hesitating whether to go in now, the door of the study suddenly opened, and her uncle just stood there and nodded slightly at her.

Without saying a word, Liang Chongyue slipped into the study.

Several uncles were in the study, even my third uncle, who I could only see during the holidays.

"Chongyue greets grandpa and uncles. Sorry to bother you so late."

Liang Chongyue bowed to the elders, and the elders stood up to return the greeting. After Liang Chongyue finished bowing, the grandfather led the uncles and said:

"Your Highness, the Princess, may you live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years."

Liang Chongyue was wearing a black nightgown and standing in the candlelit palace. Kneeling in front of her was her elder, a man who could make the capital tremble with just a stomp of his foot in Daxia.

Liang Chongyue suddenly felt that the thick fog that had been trapping her seemed to have dispersed a little. Someone was walking towards her with light, and gradually dispelled the thick fog around her.

"Grandfather and uncles, get up quickly."

Liang Chongyue personally helped his grandfather sit down on a chair nearby.

Liang Chongyue saw several low tables around with unfinished chess pieces, as well as the account books and two abacus that his third uncle had not finished calculating. It seemed that his youngest uncle was helping with the accounting again.

"I called you here today because, firstly, it's about you, and secondly, it's about the Xiang family."

Grandfather cleared his throat and spoke. Liang Chongyue also withdrew his gaze, picked up the milk tea in front of him, took a sip, and listened carefully to his grandfather's words.

"Your Majesty now has only three adult princes. Aside from the Third Prince, who is confined to the Dugu family's old residence, Prince Shu and Prince Li are both eyeing the Xiang family covetously. They both want to devour the Xiang family."

The majestic voice of his grandfather reached his ears, and Liang Chongyue glanced at the uncles around him. He saw that they all had stern expressions. Even his youngest uncle, who loved to laugh the most, had become serious.

It seems that what grandpa wants to say today is of great importance.

Liang Chongyue unconsciously played with the jade twist in her hand.

"Your Majesty's delay in appointing a crown prince is both a good and bad thing for the Xiang family. The Xiang family has always been loyal to the emperors of past dynasties. As long as the crown prince is not appointed, the two princes will never give up on the Xiang family."

"The Xiang family never sides with the prince in the fight for the throne. This is a rule set by our ancestors. I didn't want to mention it again, but I'm bringing it up now because I hope you all know this. Don't break the Xiang family rules at this time and ruin the Xiang family's century-old foundation..."

Liang Chongyue didn't hear what good thing her grandfather was talking about, so she guessed it was about her.

As long as the scumbag father doesn't appoint a crown prince, everyone in the court, except those who want to take sides in advance, will have to think for a day.

It is normal that the grandfather did not bring it up at this time. After all, not every man can accept that the superior is a woman, even if she is a close relative.

After all, everyone in this world has greed.
