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

However, the emperor did not expect that Jiang Xing would pass the news to the empress dowager so quickly, which immediately made him wary.

He looked at Empress Ji with pain and helplessness, and tried hard to suppress his anger: "Someone come!"

Pei Fan, the commander of the Jinwu Guard, came immediately: "Your Majesty!"

The emperor closed his eyes and said, "Capture the eldest son of the Yongping Marquisate, Ji Cheng, the Right Councillor of the Ministry of Public Administration, and take him to the prison to await his sentence!"

Empress Ji's eyes widened in disbelief: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you haven't investigated the matter thoroughly yet, why are you sending people to arrest my brother?"

She knelt on the ground, crawled towards him in three or two steps, hugged the emperor's legs and begged: "Your Majesty, my brother has worked diligently for us. Everything he did was for our child, for Xu'er! How can you be so cruel and sentence me to death without distinguishing right from wrong!"

Looking at the scene in the hall, Jiang Xing's eyes were filled with sinister intent.

I, a prince, have probably been pretending to be a dandy for too long, so people can no longer see my edge!

Looks like I need to sharpen my knife!

In fact, the emperor himself was also surprised and angry about the current situation.

The Ji family actually had such deep influence in the court and palace, and he hadn't even noticed it!

Even now, they don't even bother to save face!

But although he was the emperor, he actually had a lot of grievances and no one understood him!

So, in front of everyone, he brushed Empress Ji away and said, "Pei Fan, send someone to arrest Ji Cheng. You and Xu Jiusi, the Minister of Justice, must investigate this case thoroughly! Present all the evidence to me, Empress!"

The emperor glanced at Empress Ji angrily, then suppressed the urge to overturn the imperial desk and looked at Jiang Xing: "Yunce, are you satisfied with my decision?"

Jiang Xing knelt down and said, "Thank you, my Royal Brother, for taking this matter for me!"

Despite seeing the chilling look on the emperor's face, Jiang Xing spoke again, "But Ji Cheng is just being taken to the prison? I remember Song Chushi was sentenced to immediate execution!"

The emperor clenched his fists tightly and said, "Once the Dali Temple gets the evidence, we will make the final judgment!"

Jiang Xing was about to respond when he heard Song Chushi, who was kneeling behind him, speak.

"Your Majesty, there is evidence!"

All eyes in the hall instantly focused on Song Chushi.

Mr. and Mrs. Song Ming, who had been watching the fight between the gods, had eyes that bulged so wide that a lantern could be stuffed through them, and were so frightened that they couldn't even bleed.

What is this son doing?

But don’t say anything without a beginning or an end, and drag the Song family into the fire!

Song Chushi couldn't hear his parents' silent cries. He said naively, "The person who killed Xu Xinglin's family should be Jiezi, who was beside Ji Cheng. That man was his servant, but he actually has martial arts skills and is a killer!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions on everyone's faces in the hall suddenly became interesting.

Pei Fan, commander of the Jinwu Guard, curled his lips and looked at Song Chushi jokingly.

Song Ming and his wife were sweating profusely.

The Emperor and Empress Ji glared at Song Chushi with disgust and grief, wishing they could cut him into pieces.

Especially Queen Ji, in addition to disgust, she was also shocked at this moment.

She knew that Jiezi was the servant who always followed her eldest brother and often appeared and disappeared mysteriously.

She had asked her elder brother before when Mustard had been with him and why he was often not seen!

My eldest brother said that there were many things that needed Mustard's attention, so he was too busy with his duties to spare the time.

So, he's actually a killer?!

Ji Jiaru suddenly felt a surge of fear in her heart.

It was actually very easy for her to be the queen. She only had to tell her father and elder brother what she wanted or hated, and her father and elder brother would take care of it for her.

This is indeed the case. Every time she sighs, she feels how great it is to have an older brother and a father.

But she never thought about it deeply!

I don’t know how many things I will find out that I don’t know about!

Is she going to lose her brother?

Queen Ji's face turned pale, and she felt as if countless white thorns were passing by her eyes, and a string in her brain was about to break.

She raised her head and looked at the emperor pleadingly, but the emperor glanced at He Yuanguang beside him and said, "Take the queen away!"

This was the first time that the emperor spoke to her in such a cold and harsh tone, and Empress Ji's tears instantly fell like beads from a broken string.

"Your Majesty, your brother is innocent..."

Jiang Xing watched Queen Ji being taken away, and he did not feel any joy in his heart, but instead felt a little fearful.

In the past, there were eight brothers, and all of them except himself died in the fight for the throne.

When the emperor was still the crown prince, he used every possible means to eliminate all his brothers.

Such a person actually disregarded the power and empire he had been planning for many years just for the sake of Queen Ji!

When the late Emperor's sister-in-law was in power, she was loved and respected by him. I didn't expect that over the years, although he brought glory to the Duke's Mansion, he poured all his feelings into this woman!

I have to say, Queen Ji’s power is really strong!

He couldn't figure out what kind of witch this was!

Pei Fan took the order and left. The emperor was already very tired at this time.

He looked at Jiang Xing, the Queen Mother, and the others: "Let's stop here for today! Is there anything else for Queen Mother and Yun Ce?"

Jiang Xing deliberately showed everything on his face and restored his usual smiling expression: "Thank you, Royal Brother, for taking care of me! There is one more thing, that is to release Song Chushi!"

"The entire Song family has been demoted to commoners. Once the real culprit is found, my anger towards them will subside! After all, they were once relatives of the princess. Although they are no longer related, I don't want to go too far!"

The emperor then remembered that the Song family was indeed Princess Jin's previous family. Later he heard that the princess was driven out of the Earl's Mansion and was just a farm girl.

He couldn't help but chuckle contemptuously, as if he were looking at a few ants: "Let them go! You have a kind heart!"

When Song Ming and the other two heard the emperor's agreement, they couldn't help but feel excited. With tears in their eyes, they kowtowed repeatedly: "Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty..."

When Jiang Xing and others left the palace, the Jinwu Guards had already arrived at the Marquis's Mansion.

Half an hour ago, the Dali Temple Minister sent someone to the Marquis' Mansion to report the news that Song Chushi was taken away by Jiang Xing.

So at this moment, Ji Cheng was discussing with everyone in the main hall how to deal with Song Chushi being taken away by Jiang Xing.

Guizhi, who was beside Wang, rushed in hurriedly.

"My Lord, Master, Madam, this is bad!" She swallowed anxiously, "A lot of Jinwu Guards have come and surrounded our house!"

Just as Guizhi finished speaking, the sound of armor clattering in unison could be heard, and the main hall door was suddenly pushed open by two rows of Jinwu Guards. The person who walked in from the middle was none other than the Jinwu Guard Commander, Pei Fan.

"Master Ji, I am here on the orders of the Emperor to bring you to justice. Please!"

Lord Ji Hou suddenly stood up from his chair and shouted sternly, "Your Majesty, why did you arrest Ji Cheng? Commander, please give us a reason!"

Pei Fan bowed to Lord Ji with a half-smile, "Lord, Lord Song and his eldest son have already made it clear before the Emperor that it was Lord Ji who sent someone to murder His Royal Highness Prince Jin! The order was also given by the Emperor himself, so Lord Ji, please come in!"

Ji Cheng's eyes flickered for a few moments: "Impossible! This was not done by me, I deny it!"

Pei Fan smiled and said, "So, Master Ji wants to disobey the imperial order?"
