Remarrying Chun Yuan

Chapter 112 Escape

Upon hearing that Yuwen Chen had been framed, he immediately went to Emperor Qi Xiao to kick him while he was down.

After all, the two had argued and had a disagreement during the day, and no one but Qin Muyan would have dared to do that!

But at that moment, a eunuch beside her relayed a message: Qin Muyan had actually caught the person instigating the incident at the Eastern Palace and was demanding that the palace restrictions be lifted so she could come in and complain to Emperor Qi Xiao!

He originally wanted to wait until Qin Muyan suffered a great loss before appearing as the Crown Prince to take over the matter, and he didn't want to get himself involved!

Could it be that someone took action without informing him?

Qin Mushuo was also very guilty and could not be sure that this matter had nothing to do with him!

With a creak, the door of the Hall of Mental Cultivation opened.

Cheng Hai walked out from inside.

He only smiled faintly, without saying a word, staring intently at Qin Mushuo.

Qin Mushuo wanted to ask but dared not, his mind racing under Cheng Hai's gaze. Why was Cheng Hai looking at him like that? Could this matter really be related to him?!

"It really wasn't me, I'm innocent..."

"I have no idea what's going on with me!"

"I will investigate immediately and will certainly give Father Emperor a satisfactory answer!"

He scrambled to his feet in a panic and hurriedly left!

Who would have thought that just watching the show would turn into a backstabbing? If he finds out who took the initiative to do this without authorization, he will definitely tear them to pieces and show no mercy!

After seeing the Crown Prince leave in a hurry, Cheng Hai dismissed the eunuch at the door before turning back into the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"Your Majesty, His Highness the Crown Prince has left," he said softly.

Emperor Qi Xiao remained seated at the table without taking a break.

"He is always vying for power and profit, and he is flustered and incompetent. How can I entrust the Great Qi Empire to such a person!"

That's a really strong statement.

Cheng Hai immediately knelt down, "Your Majesty, please calm down. The matter is indeed a bit ridiculous and absurd, but it may not necessarily have anything to do with His Highness the Crown Prince. He just couldn't keep his temper in check."

"If it were truly related to him, I wouldn't be so disappointed. At least you would have some courage. You only glanced at him twice, and you're already terrified into this cowardly state. You have no backbone and no sense of responsibility." Emperor Qi Xiao was practically sentencing him to death.

Cheng Hai remained silent, not daring to speak.

After all, he is the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace; it's not something an old servant like him can comment on.

Emperor Qi Xiao muttered something for no reason, then remembered what Cheng Hai had told him, "Incompetent, I really don't want to be incompetent!"

"A mere crown prince of the Mongol Kingdom dares to bully me so brazenly! Let's see what tricks they have up their sleeves..."

A thunderclap suddenly exploded.

This spring rain was extremely heavy.

It lacks any soft, gentle quality; it seems to want to wash away all the grime and thoroughly clean the rooftops and pavilions of the capital.

Zhang Xinyan was assigned another task: to search the entire capital for the person who had thrown excrement at Yuwen Chen.

Qin Muyan and Qin Mushuo had a fight, and Qin Muyan refused to admit that she did it.

The evidence Qin Muyan presented wasn't particularly strong; it was just that Pei Chun hadn't been caught red-handed at Yingchun Tower that day.

Qin Mushuo's counterattack was also well-founded: the person on duty at the county government office that day was Wei Gongming.

Wei Gongming had already been assigned to the Third Prince's household. Upon learning of the fire at the brothel, the local officials delayed their efforts to provide assistance. Who knew if Wei Gongming was helping Qin Muyan take revenge? Both sides had their reasons, and neither could refute the other's claims.

The two had no choice but to anxiously await Zhang Xinyan's decision.

The more they investigated the crucial matter, the more outrageous it became. The Crown Prince uncovered a host of the Third Prince's sordid deeds, while the Third Prince also discovered the Crown Prince's underhanded dealings. The two brothers began to expose each other's shortcomings.

"...Actually, I think Your Majesty has been wronged in this matter." Qin Muyan realized that things were going against him.

After all, he was the one who had secretly slept with Yuwen Chen, which was unreasonable and morally questionable. If this matter were to be brought before Emperor Qi Xiao, even if the Crown Prince was also at fault, he would definitely be the one to be severely punished.

Qin Mushuo was also drenched in sweat, after all, there were still many things about him that hadn't been discovered...

"In my opinion, my brother has also been wronged. Our Great Qi has always been a land of propriety and etiquette. How could we do such a despicable thing!"

"Yes, even if we are dissatisfied with the arrogance of the eldest prince of the Mongol Kingdom, we will not resort to such shameful means."

So who could it be?

"They don't look like they're one of ours."

"Does Your Majesty believe that there is internal strife within the Mongol Empire?"

"Although Yuwen Chan is not highly regarded in the Mongol Kingdom, I always felt that he was not simple..."

The two exchanged a glance and instantly decided who would take the blame.

Moreover, they haven't found out who it is yet, and they also think that internal strife in Mongolia is the most reasonable thing to do. After all, Yuwen Chan's offer of 100,000 taels of silver was rejected, and Yuwen Chen even publicly reprimanded Yuwen Chan for making decisions on his own, saying that what he said didn't count at all!

The finger is pointed at Yuwen Chan, but there is no evidence?

Evidence is easy to obtain.

Soon, several more witnesses and participants emerged, claiming that a Mongolian man had bribed them to set fire to and throw excrement.

The news quickly reached Yuwen Chen.

Upon seeing the irrefutable evidence, Yuwen Chen instantly flew into a rage!

"How dare he, a bastard born of a female slave, disrespect me? Your Great Qi is probably framing me maliciously!"

It's not that he doesn't believe, but that he can't accept it.

If we admit it, how can we then extort money from Daqi?

The people from the Court of State Ceremonial negotiated again, this time standing firm and resolutely refusing to take the blame for the young prince of Mongolia!

"If you are maliciously framing Daqi, then I beg your rudeness, and there is no need for friendly negotiations between our two countries. Let's end it here... We, Daqi, treat people kindly, but we cannot be humiliated like this, and the people of Daqi will not agree to it either!" Wei Tianxuan was finally able to raise his head and rant!

The argument naturally didn't reach a conclusion.

The people from Daqi left arrogantly, refusing to leave behind a single witness. What if you kill the witnesses and then frame Daqi?

Yuwen Chen was so angry that his head almost split open. He grabbed a knife and went to see Yuwen Chan, wanting nothing more than to slice him to pieces!

We haven't even settled the score for his unauthorized decision to spend 100,000 taels of silver, and now this has come up again? Does he dare to take advantage of the chaos to sabotage me? This is absolutely irreconcilable!

However, Yuwen Chan was not at the post station where he was staying.

From the moment this incident occurred, he sensed something was wrong; perhaps in the end, it would all end with his death and nothing more.

Seeing Yuwen Chen indeed carrying a knife and ready to fight him to the death from the shadows, Yuwen Chan clenched his fists.

He was outnumbered and outgunned; if he were to fight Yuwen Chen head-on, he would be outnumbered and have no chance of winning.

But what can he do right now?

If he returns to Mongolia, he will die; if he doesn't appear in the capital, his reputation as the culprit will be solidified.

Who on earth caused such an absurd incident?!

Yuwen Chan felt a surge of frustration. Seeing his two servants killed by Yuwen Chen with a single blow, his heart was torn apart!

"You bastard born of that slave girl, come out here!" Yuwen Chen's curses became increasingly vulgar and outrageous.

"You piece of trash, how dare you covet my power and act as ruler for the Mongol Kingdom?"

"If you don't come out now, when I return to the Mongol Kingdom, I will drag that female slave out and let everyone enjoy her, making her wish she were dead!"

"You bastard, you can't even protect your own mother, you might as well just end your own life, you're utterly despicable!"

……

Yuwen Chan could no longer bear to see his mother so humiliated, and rushed forward!

But before he could even make a move, a group of people dressed in Mongolian clothing quickly surrounded the area!
