Reborn Empress: The World Originally Belonged to Her

But then a different perspective emerged.

Qin Yanling felt a little tired, so he told them to adjourn the court session.

After the court session ended, the Prime Minister took the initiative to find Shangguan Mufeng.

"If Lord Shangguan is not mistaken, you must be in love with the princess of the neighboring country."

Shangguan Mufeng knew the relationship between the Prime Minister and Qin Yu, and understood that there was a rift between them. Not wanting to give anyone any leverage over him, Shangguan Mufeng immediately denied everything.

"As far as I am concerned, I believe that one cannot force what one likes. And now, hearing Your Majesty's words, I realize that I am incompetent and ignorant."

At this moment, Shangguan Mufeng maintained a certain distance from the prime minister, and how could the prime minister not sense that Shangguan Mufeng was keeping his distance?

The Prime Minister remained silent, staring at the direction Shangguan Mufeng had gone, his fists clenched tightly. So many people in the court wanted to curry favor with the Prime Minister, yet Shangguan Mufeng was so persistent, and more importantly, he was here to contradict him. How could this not infuriate the Prime Minister?

Just then, Shangguan Nantian happened to pass by and saw his son chatting with the Prime Minister for a while. His son left without looking back, realizing that the Prime Minister had suffered a loss by getting involved with him.

He knew his own son, Shangguan Nantian, very well. If Shangguan Mufeng was unwilling to do something, even the Heavenly King himself couldn't do it.

At this moment, the Prime Minister saw Shangguan Nantian and walked up to him. "I have served in the court for many years, but this is the first time I have encountered an official like this. He is still too young."

He then said some meaningful words and patted Shangguan Nantian on the shoulder. Shangguan Nantian was a smart man, so how could he not know what the Prime Minister meant? After returning to his room, Shangguan Nantian told Shangguan Mufeng about these things.

"This man is disrespectful to his elders. Despite his advanced age, he still tries to stir up trouble in the court. It is truly disgusting to me."

At this moment, Shangguan Mufeng had already told Shangguan Nantian that Prime Minister Xu wanted to win him over, but Shangguan Mufeng refused.

Another matter is that this Prime Minister Xu actually threatened Shangguan Mufeng with the princess, trying to force Shangguan Mufeng to agree. How could Shangguan Mufeng possibly agree? Shangguan Mufeng refused without hesitation.

"Tell your father if you really like him."

"If everyone can see it, I believe Father can see it too."

Shangguan Nantian understood why Shangguan Mufeng had been ill for nearly a month before this, perhaps because of these things. Shangguan Nantian comforted Shangguan Mufeng.

"Father, all of this is in the past. Besides, Her Highness the Princess comforted me and gave me many examples. My illness has naturally subsided."

Shangguan Nantian never expected Qin Yu to be here comforting his precious son. It seems he'll have to thank her properly when he has the chance.

The father and son's current status seems to be due to Qin Yu. If it weren't for Qin Yu, how could they possibly have such a status?

At this moment, Qin Yu's investigation had already reached the Prime Minister, who could sense that Qin Yu was investigating him.

Another matter is that the Prime Minister seems to know that Qin Yu already knows that it was the Prime Minister who sent people to assassinate Xu Jiu, but because there is no evidence, he has been searching for evidence. In the past few days, the Prime Minister has been able to sense that there are many men in black outside the Prime Minister's residence.

If that's really the case, then the Prime Minister needs to act faster.

There is another matter, which is who the other pair of people are. The Prime Minister has racked his brains but can't figure it out. He originally thought that the people he sent out had been divided into two groups.

It turned out that they weren't actually divided into two groups, which meant there were two factions, and the other side was very good at hiding their true intentions.

The Prime Minister has been investigating for so long but hasn't found anything, and Qin Yu's side has only been investigating him but not the other side.

Furthermore, since the princess of the neighboring country wanted to return to her neighboring country, how could the prime minister allow her to go back so easily? The prime minister decided to try anything, and sent someone to confront Xu Jiu, who was in charge, tonight.

As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place.

If Xu Jiu dies, then the blame can be pinned on Qin Yu. And if Qin Yu does such a thing, she will lose her status as a princess and all the power in her hands will be taken back.

Meanwhile, the prime minister had already gone to find a scapegoat.

The reason for finding a scapegoat was because they were afraid that if they failed, Qin Yu was too clever, and if the investigation led to him, then the Prime Minister would be finished.

The Prime Minister originally wanted to frame Shangguan Mufeng for this matter, but then he felt that Shangguan Mufeng was Qin Yu's male favorite, so what reason would he have to go against Qin Yu? Besides, everything Shangguan Mufeng had now was obtained by Qin Yu.

Therefore, the Prime Minister had no way to frame Qin Yu for this matter, but at this moment he thought of the male supporting character, and perhaps he could frame the male supporting character for this matter!

The male supporting character is a prince of the opposite sex, but the strategist beside the prime minister analyzed the situation for the prime minister. The prime minister immediately felt that the male supporting character was no good, and it seemed that he could only find a minor official in the court.

After a thorough investigation, the Prime Minister had already found a scapegoat. If that failed, he would lure the scapegoat to the home of an official, thus providing conclusive evidence.

It seemed that this official and Qin Yu had a past conflict, so wasn't it just that even God was on his side? The Prime Minister felt a sense of satisfaction.

The prime minister then summoned eight assassins to his presence. These eight assassins were all carefully trained by the prime minister.

"Tonight we will go to the princess's residence to assassinate Xu Jiu. If the assassination fails, you will go to Lord Li's residence and commit suicide there."

The group of assassins knelt on the ground with a thud. "Your subordinates obey the order."

These assassins were expressionless, standing there like walking corpses.

"Your Excellency, you have now sent eight assassins to carry out the assassination. If they fail, you will lose eight valuable men."

Unexpectedly, the Prime Minister told them that there are gains and losses, and that is the proper way.
