She married a dying prince and she won three babies.

Chapter 363: It Turns Out to Be an Assassination

After Zhu Jingqi finished speaking, she bowed again.

But when the people present heard her words, several voices of disdain were heard.

"Don't you see your own status? A princess from a defeated nation dares to ask the princess of the Great Wei Kingdom to accompany her."

"That's right, she has no self-awareness at all. Even the Emperor wouldn't easily ask the Princess Zhenguo to take the stage."

"You overestimate your own abilities and think you are still in Canglan."

"I wonder how the Princess Zhenguo will respond?"

After hearing her request, Yu Yuanzheng didn't even look at Zhu Jingqi in the field.

Pretending not to hear, he continued with his work, picking out the fishbone for the child.

Zhu Jingqi listened to the whispers in the crowd without feeling embarrassed. Instead, he raised his head and looked at the emperor longingly.

As the ruler of a country, Emperor Qiming certainly would not bother with a little girl.

"Princess Zhenguo, what do you think?" The emperor kicked the ball to Yu Yuanzheng.

If the emperor asks, then I have to answer.

"Your Majesty, my hands are not meant to play the zither, but to save lives.

"If Princess Canglan is dying, I can save her out of moral obligation, but I'll have to charge a consultation fee. Ten thousand taels of silver, not a penny less," Yu Yuanzheng replied calmly.

"Princess Zhenguo is right. It's a waste of your hands to play the piano. So don't play it." The emperor agreed with her and rejected her suggestion immediately.

Zhu Jingqi didn't expect that even with such a humble attitude, she still couldn't win the approval of the Emperor of Wei, and stood in the middle of the field awkwardly.

"Okay, Princess, let the Second Princess accompany you." Seeing that the situation was not good, Prince Beiming immediately tried to smooth things over and find a way out for her.

Zhu Jingwen had no choice but to stand up and sit in front of the piano.

The sound of Fengqiuhuang's piano started, and the melody was beautiful and graceful.

At first, the sound of the piano is like the gurgling of a stream, fresh and elegant. Gradually, the melody becomes lingering and sad. Each note is like a carefully crafted love poem, revealing the desire and pursuit for beautiful love.

Zhu Jingqi began to dance lightly to the rise and fall of the piano music.

The sleeves fluttered in the air, like flowing clouds across the sky, or like colorful butterflies dancing among flowers.

Every swing is filled with endless softness and elegance.

Her figure is sometimes as graceful as a willow, swaying gently in the wind, and sometimes as agile as an eagle, soaring into the sky.

Spinning, jumping, every movement is perfectly matched with the sound of the piano.

It seems to be the most harmonious picture between heaven and earth.

The sleeves swept across the sky, leaving behind brilliant trails that intertwined with the melodious sound of the piano.

She really dances well, just as she said, she dances from the beginning.

As she moved, she kept spinning in front of the audience, almost turning the entire venue.

And just as she turned to the table at Prince Rong's Mansion, her eyes looked at Shangguan Ziqi with a mixture of charm and bewilderment.

But in just a moment, she turned and walked away again.

When she jumped to their table for the second time, she flicked her sleeves and the fragrant aroma filled their faces.

Yu Yuanzheng smelled the scent and thought it was very fragrant, but there was something in the fragrance that she couldn't smell at first.

The third time, she jumped in front of them again and swung her sleeves in front of them again, and at this moment, a silver light flashed quickly.

It flew straight towards Shangguanziqi's chest.

The speed is so fast and the distance is so close.

At this critical moment, Shangguan Ziqi quickly raised his hand, and a star-shaped hidden weapon was sandwiched between his index and middle fingers. Without any hesitation, he reflected it back the same way.

"Ah..." With a scream, Zhu Jingqi fell straight to the ground.

The light blue dress was stained red, and the hidden weapon was stuck in her chest, right over her heart.

Yu Yuanzheng was so scared that she almost screamed.

He immediately grabbed Shangguan Ziqi's hand to check.

The color between the two fingers that had held the hidden weapon had begun to change.

Yu Yuanzheng took a deep breath and brought him some tea to wash him down.

Fortunately, fortunately, it’s only on the surface.

After rinsing, the discoloration stopped.

"Ziqi, is something wrong?" The princess was also frightened and immediately stood up to see.

"Good performance." The prince only praised lightly.

It can be seen that the prince had been alert for a long time and also saw Zhu Jingqi's goal.

He didn't even remind me. Was he testing his son?

Looking at Zhu Jingqi who fell to the ground, his face changed rapidly and blood flowed out of his mouth in a few breaths.

The two generals who were already in the palace quickly stepped forward and subdued Zhu Jingqi without the emperor's orders. Then several palace guards in the palace subdued Prince Beiming and Zhu Jingwen.

But before he could even ask a single question, Zhu Jinqi died of poisoning.

It can be seen that the poison on the hidden weapon is so powerful that it can kill instantly when it comes into contact with blood.

Prince Beiming was already terrified. He really didn't expect that his cousin would do such a radical thing.

He struggled a few times and fell to his knees.

"Your Majesty, I came here sincerely to ask for peace. I never knew that the princess would do such a thing." As he spoke, tears streamed down his face and he cried bitterly.

He was afraid. If the Emperor of Wei got angry because of this, he would be dead.

He doesn't want to die.

Zhu Jingwen and Zhu Xuyang also had to kneel down.

When this happens, they are guilty of negligence.

"Your Majesty, Xuyang is willing to be a hostage in the Great Wei for twenty years." Zhu Xuyang expressed his attitude with a serious face.

The twelve-year-old boy had a determined look on his face.

It can be seen how much guilt he took in order to redeem his eldest sister's crime.

"Your Majesty, Jingwen is the eldest princess of Canglan. I come here with sincerity and am willing to accept the marriage arranged by Your Majesty. I will definitely follow your arrangements." Zhu Jingwen followed closely and expressed her determination.

"Prince Beiming, won't you explain?" Emperor Qiming just glanced at the two princes and princesses and spoke softly.

“She is the daughter of my former Crown Prince Canglan. After the former Crown Prince died and the Third Prince ascended the throne, she took the initiative to ask to be adopted by my Emperor and was willing to come and marry him.

Throughout this entire process, she behaved very well and obediently, never revealing a single flaw. She deceived all of us, including our Emperor. Your Majesty, please investigate this matter."

Prince Beiming was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, and his voice was trembling.

"Minister of Justice." Emperor Qiming shouted.

"I'm here." Lord Sun immediately stepped out.

"Check it out immediately."

"I accept the decree."

Lord Sun received the order and left the palace. He took his men to the embassy and quickly interrogated all the Canglan people in the embassy.

One of the maids was Zhu Jingqi's personal maid and knew some of the situation.

The whole story was soon revealed.

When the banquet was about to end, Lord Sun returned to the palace to report.

He also brought a maid into the palace.

"Your Majesty, this maidservant is the deceased's personal maidservant.

According to her account, the deceased had hated Prince Rong to the core since the death of the former Crown Prince Canglan, and vowed to avenge his father.

That was why she won the favor of Emperor Canglan, was adopted by him, and came to our Great Wei as the eldest princess to marry.

Her purpose was to kill Prince Rong and avenge her father. She had already decided to die, so she chose to commit the crime in the palace.

After hearing this, Emperor Qiming felt a certain admiration for this woman. She did not want to live a life of mediocrity, but wanted to avenge her father, which was better than many men.

"Prince Rong, what do you think about this matter?" Emperor Qiming wanted to hear what the prince had to say.

"She is quite courageous. All of us in the Great Wei should learn from her." She didn't expect that the prince also admired such a woman.

If it were an ordinary person's idea, they would definitely try their best to please the new emperor and strive to live a better life, but she would rather die than avenge her father.

If you think about it carefully, this spirit is really worth learning.

"Ziqi, she wants to kill you, what do you think?"
