The princess is the only one in Xuanmen, and she is reborn to lift the lid of the prince's coff

The emperor slammed his fist on the imperial desk, and the teacup rolled to the ground and broke.

He Yuanguang, who was standing next to him, was so scared that he shuddered.

"What a Ji Cheng!" The emperor was so angry that his face flushed red, his chest heaving. "What a Ji family! They don't even take me seriously, and they even promise people official positions!"

At this moment, hurried footsteps came from the back hall.

"Your Majesty!" A bright and gentle figure soon appeared on the Sumeru platform. It was Queen Ji Jiaru.

Her eyes sparkled, "Why is the Emperor so angry? I heard him muttering my brother's name from a distance!"

He Yuanguang tactfully gave up his position to Queen Ji.

When Jiang Xing and Song Ming saw Queen Ji appear, they understood.

In fact, when Jiang Xing brought Song Chushi into the palace just now, he was also stopped by a eunuch. He struggled for a long time before he finally led people into the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Looking at He Yuanguang's humble look, it seems that many people around the emperor are spies of the Ji family!

Song Ming's heart sank again.

Empress Ji has been in great favor for more than ten years, and this is something known to the entire Daliang. Now that they say that the Marquis' Mansion is the murderer behind the scenes, Empress Ji will definitely help the Ji family.

"Empress!" Jiang Xing bowed to the Empress. "My humble servant has been poisoned and framed. I hope Your Majesty can help me!"

In fact, Queen Ji and Jiang Xing had little contact. After the wedding, Jiang Xing went to Longchuan. This was the second time they met after many years.

She looked at Jiang Xing in surprise: "This is Yun Ce, right?"

She smiled kindly, "Look, you fell ill right after you came back, and the Empress's sister-in-law didn't have time to come and see you. Fortunately, you're well now. What a great joy!"

Jiang Xing smiled and said, "Yes! It is indeed a happy event for me, but for the Ji family, I don't know!"

Queen Ji's face suddenly darkened. She didn't expect Jiang Xing to not give her any face at all.

So she could only look at the emperor, and lightly walked to the dragon throne and sat down next to it.

Her voice was soft and coquettish, "Your Majesty, what is going on? Why is your brother so aggressive towards me?"

The emperor glanced at Jiang Xing and sighed, "Tell your sister-in-law about this again!"

As soon as Jiang Xing heard "Empress's sister-in-law, tell me something", he knew that the emperor had changed.

He explained the matter clearly in a few words and quickly said, "Royal brother, no matter whether the world belongs to the Jiang family or not, it certainly does not belong to the Ji family, right? Why did the Ji family want to murder me? I believe the Queen knows the reason!"

After he finished speaking, the emperor glared at him.

"Yunce, stop talking nonsense!"

Empress Ji glanced at the emperor out of the corner of her eye and immediately knelt down: "Your Majesty, father and elder brother would never do anything to harm Prince Jin. I'm afraid there is another misunderstanding!"

Jiang Xing ignored the Queen and continued, "How could a lazy prince like me be such a nuisance to them? They're trying to clear the way for the Third Prince! They're not even sparing me! They're cultivating their own cronies in the court and slaughtering innocent people. With this attitude of 'whoever opposes me will die', isn't this just a way to control the world?"

After saying this, the emperor stood up suddenly.

"Yunce, put away your usual undisciplined attitude!" He couldn't suppress his anger. "The Ji family has worked diligently over the years. Even if they haven't made any contributions, they have certainly made great efforts! Considering that you are the victim of this incident, I will not hold my anger against you. Why don't you take the Song family and leave immediately!"

Jiang Xing didn't expect that even though he had deliberately brought the matter up, the emperor would change his mind so quickly in front of Queen Ji!

The Ji family's methods and influence on the emperor have reached such a deep level, it is really scary!

At this moment, Song Ming even found it painful to breathe, his throat was so dry that he felt like vomiting, and he really wanted to escape from the hall directly!

However, the next second, he heard Prince Jin's fearless voice again: "This humble servant brought Song Chushi to see His Majesty, and encountered many obstacles along the way. From the Dali Temple Prison to the Imperial Palace, how many people from the Ji family are around Your Majesty? I'm sure you can't even count them yourself! "

"presumptuous!"

The emperor's thunderous voice finally exploded like a flash flood, making people shudder.

"I arrange the people around me, how can I allow you to dictate my decisions?"

Jiang Xing's eyes were filled with disbelief. "The jailer of the Dali Temple was bribed by the Marquis's Mansion. I was only able to bring the person here under the impartial law enforcement of a temple official. If you don't believe me, you can bring people to investigate now!"

Empress Ji's face turned pale and blue, and she clutched the corner of the emperor's robe in grievance, crying, "Your Majesty! My brother and father have always obeyed you, how could they do such an overstepping of authority? These palace servants must have made up this story on purpose!"

The emperor was very annoyed.

The rumors outside were actually true. He had doted on Queen Ji for more than ten years, and what he hated most was seeing her cry.

He was actually very angry at the Ji family for being so audacious, but Queen Ji was his sweetheart!

As for the Ji family, he also wanted to move, but he couldn't...

Maintaining a delicate balance has always been his way of governing.

The emperor's roar echoed throughout the hall: "Come, take Prince Jin and the Song family away!"

Jiang Xing's heart sank rapidly, and he cursed in his heart, "Stupid King!"

This result was within Queen Ji's expectations. She breathed a sigh of relief, and there was a hint of pride in her eyes as she looked at Jiang Xing.

The emperor helped Empress Ji up and was about to take her away when a eunuch's shrill voice suddenly came from the palace door.

"The Queen Mother has arrived——"

The emperor glanced impatiently at the empress dowager at the door. He really didn't know what all the fuss was about at this critical moment!

"Your Majesty, the Ji family is so bold that they have committed such evil deeds. Do you think the Queen will cover up for them?!" The Queen Mother had been ill for the past few days and came in with the support of two maids. She looked pale at the moment, but the anger on her face was still aggressive.

"Back then, I trusted the Emperor, so I handed the world over to you personally, not to let the Ji family destroy it!"

These words carry a lot of weight. Over the years, the Queen Mother has never mentioned the kindness she showed her.

But at this moment, it was so heavy that it made the emperor feel annoyed.

The emperor was not born to the empress dowager. At that time, the empress dowager used the power of the entire Xie family to help him ascend to the throne, and even sent her own son to the border. He must remember this favor.

"Mother, please calm down!" He walked down the steps and saluted the Queen Mother. "Of course I remember your kindness, and I will definitely make the decision for Yun Ce. I originally planned to investigate privately before making a final decision!"

Jiang Xing laughed in his heart. What's the point of checking privately before making a decision? It would be better to leave enough preparation for the Ji family!

He really didn't know when the emperor became so shameless.

The Queen doted on Ji to the point of being blind and deaf!

Soon, Xie Ruqin, who was following the empress dowager, also entered the hall.

Xie Ruqin was the second-in-command of the cabinet, and was the key figure behind the emperor's success in maintaining peace and stability. It could be said that Xie Ruqin had helped him resolve most of the messes facing the common people.

Over the years, Xie Ruqin, along with the Xie family members, worked tirelessly to support the country and always obeyed the emperor's orders. He was a good knife that he both wanted to get rid of and relied on immensely.

Xie Ruqin stepped forward and bowed slightly. "Your Majesty, my family, the Xie family, has dedicated all these years to the Jiang family's rule. Even if we can't say we have made great contributions, we have certainly worked hard! We are not the kind of people who seek rewards. We have no selfish motives. This is all for Daliang!"

"And now, the Empress Dowager and her own son, His Royal Highness Prince Jin, and others dared to murder the Emperor, and they have spies all around him. Will the Emperor still try to excuse the Ji family?!"

Xie Ruqin was over 50 years old and a few years older than Ji Houye. His eyes were red and his beard was trembling as he stared at the emperor angrily.

Throughout the dynasties, no emperor has ever favored his relatives by marriage to the point of disregarding his own country.

If the emperor still wants to cover up at this time, it will really chill the hearts of the entire court!

In fact, Jiang Xing is a playboy, and the emperor is really not afraid of him.

But if the Queen Mother and the Xie family intervened, he knew that it would be difficult to save Ji Cheng.

If the dispute continues, the game between the Ji and Xie families will involve his own interests.
