The government was sending out wives, and I ended up with a princess from the previous dynasty!

Two days later.

The Great Jing Dynasty.

The current imperial court remains the same as before.

The Empress sat on her phoenix throne with an icy expression.

"So many days have passed! I sent you to investigate the assassin, and you haven't even found a trace of him. What use are you bunch of good-for-nothings that the court keeps around? The Court of Judicial Review is useless, the Nine Gates Commander is useless, and the Ministry of Justice is useless too!"

"Garbles! They're all gamblers!"

As Ji Wuxin finished speaking, all the ministers in the court dared not utter a sound.

The left and right prime ministers looked down at each other, adopting an attitude of indifference and detachment.

Originally, Ji Wuxin only gave the Dali Temple a few days to investigate the assassination attempt at the Fifth Prince's residence, but almost two months have passed and there is still no news!

Later, the Dali Temple had no other choice but to find a few big and small assassins from the Liufa Heavenly Palace, a gang of assassins in the martial arts world, to take the blame.

The Liufa Heavenly Palace was originally a force that rebelled alongside the Green Turban Army. They had a grudge against the imperial court, so it was normal for them to massacre a prince's residence.

But Ji Wuxin is not so easily fooled.

How dare those few small fry from Liufatian Palace assassinate a prince and wipe out his entire family in the capital?

This was clearly a few scapegoats that the Dali Temple had randomly chosen to avoid being blamed.

Enraged, Ji Wuxin beheaded several prison officials and clerks from the Dali Temple as a warning to others!

Then they gave the Dali Temple some more time, instructing them to conduct a thorough investigation!

As a result, the investigation has continued until now, but no conclusion has been reached.

In fact, many officials in the court knew that the Fifth Prince and Jia Tisi of the Imperial City Guard had a history of feud.

The reason, of course, is for a woman.

Yi Qianxiao, the daughter of Xuanhua.

Back then, the Fifth Prince was completely infatuated with this Miss Yi, and they were almost a couple!

As a result, Miss Yi ran away from home without saying a word and then got together with Jia Daoshi.

At the time, the two even got into a fight in Yilan County!

It's normal for Jia Daoshi to take action against Wu Quan.

But nobody dared to think in that direction.

They sent thousands of elite guerrillas to attack, and they were all wiped out.

How much martial prowess does your Dali Temple possess?

Going to arrest Justin is practically suicide!

Moreover, blaming Jia Daoshi without any evidence will only make the Empress angrier!

After a moment of silence, the Left Prime Minister coughed lightly and then said:

"Your Majesty, the traitor who assassinated the Fifth Prince is indeed despicable, but right now, we should be more concerned about the situation in Juebi City."

Relatively speaking, the Left Prime Minister was more concerned about the situation in Juebi City, because it was he who first proposed the idea of ​​negotiating peace.

Upon hearing the Left Prime Minister's words, Ji Wuxin took a deep breath and then said, "Yuanfang, I'll give you three more days. If you still don't have any clues, then your Dali Temple has no reason to exist!"

Just as Ji Wuxin finished speaking, a voice suddenly rang out from outside the main hall!

"Jaguar! Jaguar! The Jaguar of Cliff City!"

His voice was filled with excitement and instantly spread throughout the entire court!

Jaguar?

Given the current situation in Cliff City, where would a Jaguar come from?

Even with the addition of the imperial army, they could only barely hold onto Juebi City.

Wanting to win a battle is a pipe dream!

Could it be that General Mingheying personally took action?

If Ming Heying leads a large army north to provide reinforcements, it is indeed possible that good news will come!

Many ministers immediately considered this possibility.

However, it is also possible that the eldest prince lied about military intelligence in order to gain military merit!

Upon considering this possibility, both the Fifth Prince Wu Quan and the Eighth Prince Wu Jue's eyes lit up!

If we can bring down the eldest prince, it will be like removing a huge obstacle!

Soon, the fifth and eighth brothers immediately began preparing to impeach their eldest brother!

Soon, the Azure Phoenix messenger strode in, carrying a green flag on his back and a bamboo tube wrapped in a cool-looking bag hanging on his chest!

Upon reaching the center of the main hall, the Azure Phoenix messenger knelt down, excitedly raising the battle report on his chest above his head with both hands. He then exclaimed with fervor, "Your Majesty! Crown Prince, Jatis led our soldiers of the Cliff City in a valiant fight, decisively defeating the Kushan Empire's allied forces, killing 300,000 barbarian cavalry, capturing 100,000, and with another 100,000 missing!"

The voice of the Azure Phoenix messenger echoed throughout the main hall!

Everyone was stunned when they heard the news!

No one spoke!

After a long while, the ministers looked at each other, feeling a sense of absurdity that made them both laugh and cry!

They had encountered situations where false military intelligence was reported before.

Very common!

But this is truly the first time I've ever seen a battle report this ridiculously fake!

Slaughtering 300,000?

One hundred thousand prisoners?

Are another 100,000 missing?

Why don't you just say you conquered the Kushan Empire?

They burned down the Golden Horde, the royal court?

That's utter nonsense!

Even with Mingheying's army, the Cliff City couldn't do this!

The Qingluan messenger's words made no mention of General Ming Heying, which means that Heying did not make a move at all.

Since Mingheying didn't make a move, it's already a miracle that such a small force could hold off Juebi City!

They also slaughtered 300,000 of their elite barbarian cavalry?

Ridiculous, so ridiculous!

Did the person who wrote this battle report think that he and his people had lived too long and wanted to lead his entire clan to ascend to heaven?

"I've learned something new today. I think the city of Cliffs has probably fallen. The Kushan Empire is just making fun of us!"

"Having served three dynasties, this is the first time I have heard such an absurd battle report."

“Even killing tens of thousands of enemies and then repelling them would be far more believable than this! The eldest prince is still too young.”

"The Crown Prince isn't too young; he's just too eager to improve!"

"..."

The ministers were all discussing it animatedly.

"Cough cough!"

Song Zhaoruo coughed softly and then stepped out from beside the Empress.

Upon seeing Song Zhaoruo emerge, the ministers hurriedly fell silent.

Soon, Song Zhaoruo picked up the battle report and presented it to Ji Wuxin.

Ji Wuxin's face revealed no emotion.

However, the occasional flash of cold light in her eyes proved that she was on the verge of exploding in rage.

Clearly, she didn't believe the battle report was genuine either!

However, even though the battle report was fake, she still had to open it and take a good look!

"Clap!"

Ji Wuxin opened the folded document.

At this moment, all the civil and military officials looked at Ji Wuxin.

Some people are already waiting to see the Crown Prince make a fool of himself!

Even the eldest son of the royal family would not escape punishment for daring to send such false information via the Azure Phoenix messenger!

As for Jia Daoshi... well, that's hard to say!

Ji Wuxin carefully read through the memorial in her hand, her expression remaining calm throughout.

After reading it, Ji Wuxin casually handed the memorial to Song Zhaoruo and said indifferently, "I know you must be very curious about what is written inside. Zhaoruo, read it to them."

Song Zhaoruo: "Yes!"
