Tragic death and rebirth, I remarried the scumbag uncle on the spot

Chengqian Palace.

After Xie Xu finished reading the list in front of him, his expression grew increasingly gloomy.

"Accepting bribes, Yong'an has been engaging in favoritism and corruption over the past year." Xie Sui listed Xie Zhiyi's crimes one by one.

Xie Xu's face was filled with disappointment and regret. He only had Yong'an as his daughter and had spoiled her since she was a child, but he never expected that she would be so bold in private!

"Not only those on the list will be punished, but everyone in the court will also be investigated!" Xie Xu slammed the table and stood up, scaring the palace servants in the hall to kneel on the ground.

"As for Yongan..." Xie Xu hesitated to speak. In the end, he felt soft-hearted towards his daughter. However, he had to punish her, but he couldn't bear to punish her too harshly.

"Royal brother, why don't you let Yong'an go to Chenxiang Temple to reflect on her mistakes for three years?" Xie Sui gave Xie Xu a way out. He knew that the emperor loved Yong'an the most among his children and he would not be willing to let her go no matter what.

What's more, both of them understood that with Yong'an's personality, he would definitely not do things so thoroughly by himself, and there must be someone instigating him behind the scenes.

As for who it is, we really need to investigate thoroughly.

"Let's go and convey the order now, and let her remember this lesson well." Xie Xu made up his mind.

"Then I will go on your behalf." Xie Sui took the initiative to accept this task.

"The palace doesn't need you, so why do you need to make a trip?" Xie Xu looked at Xie Sui with concern. Some time ago, Prince Chen's Mansion sent a message saying that Master Chu Yue was treating him. Today, Xie Sui seemed to be in much better health than before.

Before Xie Sui could speak, Xie Xu continued, "Even if you don't tell me, I know it. It's just that Zhiyi sent two maids to your house yesterday, and you're still as vindictive as ever."

"Since my royal brother knows, he won't let anyone stop him."

It would be fine if he didn't talk about it, but he gets angry when he mentions Xie Sui. Not only has Xie Zhiyi become more and more presumptuous over the past year, but now he even dares to interfere with him.

It just so happened that news came from Jiangnan and she ran into him, so don't blame him for being rude.

Xie Sui went to the palace immediately after receiving the news, and did not even have time to give orders for them to continue investigating the person behind the scenes.

"I knew you would drive him out, so why bother?" Xie Xu also understood Xie Sui's temper. In his opinion, what Yong'an did was just like a child playing house and was not worth mentioning at all.

Others may not know, but he, as the emperor's brother, understands how much Xie Sui cares about Yu Guiwan.

"Go and convey the imperial edict. Send Yong'an out of the palace tonight and let her understand what she should and shouldn't do." Although Xie Xu loved Xie Zhiyi, she had indeed made a big mistake this time and must be punished.

Before Xie Sui went to deliver the imperial edict, Xie Xu specifically told him, "I am also tired. I will not see anyone who asks to see me."

……

Chang'an Palace.

Xie Zhiyi had not yet received the news that Youlan had been kicked out of Prince Chen's Mansion. She was leaning on the chaise longue, with a maid standing on the other side feeding her fruit.

"Princess, His Royal Highness Prince Chen is here with his men."

The maid outside the hall came hurriedly to report, and just as she finished speaking, Xie Sui and his men had already arrived in front of Xie Zhiyi.

Xie Sui clearly didn't say a word, but the aura in his eyes made her breathless.

"Uncle Emperor."

She quickly stood up, saluted, and called out timidly.

"Your Majesty has decreed that Princess Yong'an has committed a serious offense and is to be immediately sent to Chenxiang Temple for three years of reflection."

Xie Zhiyi knelt on the ground, looking at Xie Sui in disbelief, "What did I do wrong? Why is Father punishing me?"

"Yong'an, the emperor's uncle doesn't need to explain it to you clearly, right?" Xie Sui stared at Xie Zhiyi, as if he could see through her completely.

His words were very clear. No matter how stupid Xie Zhiyi was, she knew at this moment that the things she had done had been exposed.

"I want to see my father! There's no way my father would let me go to that kind of place!" Xie Zhiyi panicked and shouted in disbelief. Chenxiang Temple was far away and remote, and it would take three years to get there!

"Yong'an, let the emperor remind you again: stay out of your own way." Xie Sui walked in front of Xie Zhiyi. He spoke with a smile, but his aura was so strong that Xie Zhiyi unconsciously took a step back.

He ordered calmly, "Send the princess out of the palace."

Soon, the people behind Xie Sui stepped forward and restrained Xie Zhiyi. When they took her away, she was still shouting that she wanted to see Xie Xu.

As soon as Xie Zhiyi was sent onto the carriage, the Queen also learned the news and immediately rushed to Chengqian Palace to plead for Xie Zhiyi.

Prince Chen's Palace.

As the sky grew darker, Xie Sui still hadn't returned. Yu Guiwan didn't have dinner either, and waited for news from him in the house.

She sent someone to ask Bei Chu, and only found out that Xie Sui was very angry, and then went into the palace.

"Princess, please have some cakes to fill your stomach."

Lan Xin suddenly came in with a tray and walked in front of Yu Guiwan.

"Where's Fuqiu?"

Yu Guiwan asked.

As soon as she finished speaking, Lan Xin pulled out a dagger from her sleeve and pointed it straight at Yu Guiwan's throat.

In an instant, Yu Guiwan quickly grabbed Lan Xin's wrist and twisted it to the side.

There was only a crisp sound and the dagger fell to the ground.

Lan Xin cried out in pain and took a few steps back. She narrowed her eyes slightly, as if she had not expected Yu Guiwan to be so powerful. Then she drew the soft sword from her waist.

Yu Guiwan remained calm and dodged Lan Xin's sword moves nimbly.

Finally, a few steps away.

Yu Guiwan drew out the sword hanging in the house and faced Lan Xin head-on.

Yu Guiwan moved swiftly, his swordsmanship was strange, and his sword strikes were unconventional. Each of his sword strikes landed in an incredible place, and soon, the opponent was at a disadvantage.

"Pfft."

Insert the sound of flesh and blood.

Lan Xin covered her wound and wanted to jump out of the window, but she didn't expect that as soon as she reached the window, she saw that the house was surrounded by guards from Prince Chen's Mansion.

She immediately realized that she had fallen into a trap!

"Where do you want to escape to?" Yu Guiwan raised his eyebrows.

Lan Xin had nowhere to escape and was quickly captured by the guards and brought to Yu Guiwan.

"Tell me, who ordered you to do this?" Yu Guiwan tapped the table with his fingertips.

Lan Xin gave her a vicious look without saying anything. The next second, Yu Guiwan reacted immediately and wanted to stop her, but it was too late.

Lan Xin committed suicide by taking poison.

"Drag him away." Yu Guiwan said lightly.

As early as this afternoon when she saw Lan Xin coming to deliver tea and snacks, she noticed that she was different. Only people who have been holding swords for many years would have calluses on their knuckles. However, this explanation was still too far-fetched. What really made her certain was that Lan Xin was not right -

She walked without making any sound, which could only happen through deliberate training.

But what Yu Guiwan couldn't figure out was who would kill her? And who would have to get in touch with Xie Zhiyi and use Xie Zhiyi's hand to kill her?

And the person had to be unaware of her martial arts skills, otherwise they wouldn't have sent such a weak person to assassinate her.

But now everyone in the capital should know that she knows martial arts, which makes Yu Guiwan even more confused about who is behind this.
