Quick Wear: Crazy Female Supporting Role She is Bai Yueguang
Chapter 149 Black Lotus Tears the Cannon Fodder Script (20)
Shi Qing trembled. Didn't this just match the plot? However, Xuanyuan Heng never put it into action.
Otherwise, her life would be in danger.
"Is it too late to regret the marriage now?"
Shi Qing got up, put on her clothes and wanted to slip away, but Xuanyuan Heng got up and threw her onto the bed. Their eyes met, and their breathing was a little disordered.
Xuanyuan Heng said in a low voice, "It's too late."
Shi Qing sighed, "What do you think now?"
Xuanyuan Heng lay down and said in a contemptuous tone, "On the day Princess Yongning drugged me, it was you who saved me and brought me to the City God Temple, right?"
"No, you remembered it wrongly. It was a man who saved you."
Xuanyuan Heng glanced at her and asked suspiciously, "How do you know?"
Shi Qing, "..."
"Actually, I remember what you looked like before you passed out that day. Even if you concealed it well, your martial arts skills won't lie.
You were able to come to Wangjiang Tower to save me, but you were unwilling to reveal your identity. When you were at the border, you wrote to me many times to remind me that you were worried about my safety.
My dear, you and I have known each other since childhood. I know what kind of person you are. You must have had some difficulties back then.
Later, I ordered Qingfeng to investigate the matter of breaking off the engagement. I found out that you didn't intend to break off the engagement with me. In fact, you have always had me in your heart."
Shi Qing sighed helplessly. It turned out that he had accidentally exposed his identity. However, Xuanyuan Heng was smart and knew that some things could not be seen with just the naked eye. He sent people to investigate openly and secretly, which was quite reliable.
If this is the case, what is the original plot about? However, she was too lazy to think too much at the moment and just wanted to solve the problem at hand as soon as possible.
"I see."
The two of them put aside their past grudges, and the doubts in Shi Qing's heart gradually dissipated.
Shi Qing told Xuanyuan Heng that someone had sneaked into the Marquis' Mansion last night, and asked Qingfeng to send the person to the main hall.
Chuntao knocked on the door and came in to help Shi Qing wash up. She tied up her hair and then pinned a flower on Shi Qing's head, which made her look simple and elegant and very beautiful.
When the two of them arrived at the main hall, a breeze soon brought a person over. The person was wearing a veil and refused to show his true face.
Xuanyuan Heng sat on the armchair, looked at the man with sharp eyes, and asked Qingfeng in a deep voice.
"What did he do in the Marquis' Mansion last night?"
Qingfeng snorted coldly and pointed at the man angrily.
"Your Highness doesn't know that he secretly poisoned the kitchen yesterday and even added a strong poison to your wife's dinner. Anyone who eats it will surely die."
"Fortunately, our people discovered it early and cut the problem off immediately. I have already found out that this person has close contacts with Princess Yongning and seems to be under the princess's instructions."
Xuanyuan Heng said in a deep voice, "Send this person to the Ministry of Justice and say that someone poisoned the princess in her name. Instruct the Ministry to closely monitor this matter. I believe the Ministry of Justice will handle the matter efficiently."
How could the man being arrested not know what the Ministry of Justice is like? Most of the important criminals in the court are imprisoned there.
The Ministry of Justice has plenty of means. Although he is afraid of death, his family is still with the princess, and Princess Yongning must not be implicated in this matter.
Qingfeng raised his eyes and glanced at the man, his patience reaching its limit.
"I'll give you one last chance. Either go to the Ministry of Justice or explain yourself clearly. If you go in safe and sound, you may not be able to come out safe and sound."
The man's mind was racing. He was certainly aware of this, but if he didn't obey, the princess...
Qingfeng escorted the man away, but when leaving the mansion, he finally knelt down and cried for mercy, willing to explain clearly that it was the princess who did it.
After saying that, the man wrote down his testimony and signed it.
He was imprisoned in the dungeon of the Marquis' Mansion. Xuanyuan Heng looked at the signed documents, left the General's Mansion and walked towards the Imperial Palace.
When Emperor Mingde learned about this, he ordered a thorough investigation. It turned out that the matter was indeed related to the princess, and everything was done by the princess who secretly sent people to do it.
The emperor was very angry. He had never been so disappointed with the princess.
He had doted on Princess Yongning over the years and given her everything she wanted, but he never expected that he would be so cruel to his own court officials.
Xuanyuan Heng did not ask the emperor to give an answer to this matter. He just waited quietly for the emperor's decision.
"I wonder how the Emperor intends to deal with this dangerous situation. I know the Emperor loves the princess very much, but this matter involves Sheng Guang.
There were more than one or two guests at my wedding banquet yesterday; many important officials of the imperial court were present. Your Majesty, if anyone were injured, it would be a loss for Yanjing."
Emperor Mingde recalled that yesterday's wedding banquet was very lively and there were indeed countless people who came to attend the banquet.
The princess's behavior was really too foolish and vicious. He had doted on the princess since she was a child and raised her like a pearl, but he did not expect that she would have such a vicious mind.
The emperor looked at Xuanyuan Hen calmly and said with a long sigh.
"I will give you an answer to this matter. If a father fails to teach his son well, he will be punished. The princess has done this, and I will not let her off easily."
After saying this, Emperor Mingde made a prompt decision and ordered the eunuch beside him to go and announce an edict.
"Princess Yongning hired someone to kill someone. This is an unforgivable crime. However, considering that the case was discovered in time and no casualties were caused, I will show leniency and strip her of her title. I also order Princess Yongning to move out of the Princess Residence. From now on, she is not allowed to set foot in the Imperial Palace without an imperial decree."
Emperor Mingde was the most respectful to the wise and humble, and he knew very well that Xuanyuan Heng played a very important role.
Moreover, he was in the imperial court and used his unparalleled martial arts to secure the country and the world, so Princess Yongning would give it up if she could.
He had given Princess Yongning the honor she deserved, but she did not cherish it. Instead, she used her status to harm others.
Such behavior is truly shameful.
Xuanyuan Heng, tall as jade, stood in front of the palace and saluted the emperor respectfully.
"Your Majesty has handled this matter impartially. I thank you for your grace."
Emperor Mingde felt a little guilty. He looked at Xuanyuan Heng and said slowly.
"I have spoiled my daughter, and you, Lord Ning'an, have done nothing wrong."
Xuanyuan Heng said truthfully, "The princess was innocent and cute when she was young, but unfortunately her character is not right."
Emperor Mingde was also somewhat helpless, as his harem only consisted of Concubine Yu and the deceased empress.
The Queen had one son, while Concubine Yu had both a son and a daughter, but the eldest daughter was unruly and the second son was too mediocre.
The only legitimate eldest son, the crown prince, has been depressed due to the queen's death. His health is deteriorating, he has no appetite, and is becoming increasingly thin and unrecognizable.
"If you have some free time recently, why not go to the palace to visit the Crown Prince? He has been depressed ever since his biological mother passed away at Yumen Pass. Zi Tong is gone, and this child is Zi Tong's leftover. I cannot let him go with Zi Tong."
Xuanyuan Heng bowed deeply and said respectfully, "I understand."
The news of the princess's mansion being confiscated spread throughout the capital. Princess Yongning was driven out of the mansion and had to live with Cui Xu in the Cui family.
However, the Cui family members who had treated her with great respect in the past now looked at her coldly, as if she had done something unforgivable and stupid.
