"Father, although my elder brother and I didn't see the emperor, we heard the death knell in the palace on the way back!" Ma Yuzhi rushed to Ma Yuankang when he entered the house.And Ma Ruixuan followed closely behind him, afraid that something would happen to him.

Hearing this, Ma Yuankang chuckled, stroked his beard, and narrowed his eyes: "The old emperor really can't stand it anymore. It's so good, I want to see how they deal with the ministers of the court .”

Hearing this, Ma Yuzhi's smile froze instantly, and his body trembled accordingly: "Father, my eldest brother and I entered the palace today, saw, saw..." At this point, Ma Yuzhi frowned. He pursed his lips, not daring to continue talking.

Seeing his unpromising appearance, Ma Yuankang was furious.He glared at Ma Yuzhi: "Speak quickly if you have something to say, I don't like people who talk about it."

At this time, Ma Ruixuan took a step forward, lowered his head, and his tone sank: "Father, we met His Royal Highness at the gate of the palace."

"What?!" Ma Yuankang slapped the table angrily, "You two trash! I just said that this kid probably didn't die, and if he wanted to see someone die, he would see the dead body. Now it's all right, let's not say that people are dead, and ascend the throne Maybe we will be the first ones to clean up."

"Father, please don't be angry. Although His Royal Highness is back, I think this matter is very strange." Ma Ruixuan said.

Hearing this, Ma Yuankang suppressed his anger and sat back on the chair: "Speak."

"My son saw His Royal Highness fall off the cliff with his own eyes, and he also took people to search carefully under the cliff. He thought that if a person fell from such a high cliff, even if he escaped death, he would be seriously injured. Didn't we arrive just a few days after we came back? Besides, the boy has observed carefully today, and His Royal Highness looks good, and it seems that there is nothing serious." Ma Ruixuan expressed his thoughts one by one.

After thinking for a while, Ma Yuankang nodded: "The old emperor's son and daughter are twins. I have heard people say that they are exactly the same."

"Then father and elder brother mean that the person we saw today is not His Royal Highness, but the princess?" Ma Yuzhi was a little surprised when he realized it.

"This is not easy," Ma Yuankang said, getting up and pacing back and forth, "If the old emperor has no successors, I can gather power in an open and honest manner, and the soldiers under me will not have any opinions. Those old stubborn can't say anything. But now, that kid is back, no matter if it's true or not, I have no reason to develop my power anymore. If we confront each other head-on, we will probably only lose to both sides, and you and I won't get it Good fruit to eat."

Ma Yuzhi raised his eyebrows, and said flatteringly: "Father, since we all know that the little prince is a fake, why don't we expose her directly? This is their fault, and there is also the suspicion of foreign relatives seizing power. Don't say neutral at that time People who originally supported her may turn to support us!"

Ma Yongkang glanced at Ma Yuzhi in front of him, and he didn't get angry: "Expose her? How do you expose her? What about the evidence? Regardless of whether what you said is true or not, even if it is true, the future of her Your new emperor, the king of a country, will have his health tested in public because he refuted your trivial sentence?"

"Then...then what should we do..." Ma Yuzhi puffed up his cheeks, and then began to raise his hand to slap himself in the face, "It's all because of the child's incompetence. He failed to complete the task assigned by Daddy and ruined Daddy's career ..."

"Okay, okay," Ma Yuankang, who was already pissed off, was even more angry when he saw Ma Yuzhi pretending. He waved his hands at the two of them, "You guys go out first, and someone will come to mourn in a while."

Two hours later, all the ministers in the court received the news and rushed into the palace.After formally kneeling in front of Jun Qian and crying for a while, the ministers followed the elder Sun Xuwen and retreated to the side hall.

"Prime Minister, I heard that His Royal Highness is back today. I wonder if this is true or not?" After everyone arrived, an official asked first.

Changsun Xuwen nodded: "Your news is well-informed. His Highness has gone to change his mourning clothes, and he should be here soon."

At this time, footsteps sounded.

Jun Jinyu changed into a filial piety dress, her eyes were still a little red and swollen, and it could be seen that she had cried.Cao Hui followed her, although he didn't cry, but his face was full of grief.

"I see His Royal Highness, Your Highness is a thousand years old." Everyone knew that the person in front of them would be the new emperor in a short time, and they did not dare to neglect at all, and hurriedly saluted.

This was the first time that Jun Jinyu had seen so many important court officials. She looked at the crowd and was so nervous that her palms were sweating.

However, the queen mother said that in front of the ministers, you must have an imperial spirit and not be weak.

After cheering herself up in her heart, Jun Jinyu took a deep breath and lowered her voice: "Excuse me."

Everyone got up.

"Father is gone, I am very sad, and today I only want to tell you one important matter." Jun Jinyu read out the lines that had been silent for many times in her heart.

The ministers looked at each other.

The emperor passed away, what else can be compared with it?

"The imperial sister received a letter from the flying pigeons from the palace yesterday, and when she learned that the palace was about to arrive in the capital, she wanted to go out of the palace to meet the palace. Unexpectedly, the imperial sister got lost halfway." Jun Jinyu said deeply again. Taking a breath, he continued, "Father is gone, I can't lose my sister anymore. Cao Hui."

"The minister is here."

"I ordered you to bring a hundred elites to search for the whereabouts of the imperial sister. This matter should not be delayed, let's do it now."

"The minister takes the decree." After saluting, Cao Hui left.

Jun Jinyu nodded, and continued: "Ministers, please pay attention. If you have any clues, report them immediately without delay."

"Yes." All the ministers responded quickly.

"I want to go to accompany my father again, so I'll take my leave first." After speaking, Jun Jinyu got up and left the side hall.

Jun Jinyu did the whole process in one go, without giving the ministers any time to react.

In fact, she has been beating drums in her heart, and she is afraid that if she gives the ministers time to think, she will run the risk of revealing her secrets.After all, Changsun Lan didn't tell her what to do if the ministers asked questions.

Sun Xuwen stayed in the side hall to discuss other matters with the ministers, while Song Le'an also went to arrange related matters.So when Jun Jinyu returned to Ganquan Palace, there were only Changsun Lan and Changsun Jingchen left inside.

Hearing the sound of footsteps from far to near, Changsun Jingchen got up and walked towards Jun Jinyu.

After walking a little further, Changsun Jingchen carefully reminded: "Your Highness, the empress is asleep."

Jun Jinyu nodded.

Just now he was too nervous and broke out in a sweat, but he didn't notice that he was wearing thinner clothes.Now that he is quiet, his hands feel a little cold.As she walked forward, she subconsciously retracted her hands into her sleeves.

Changsun Jingchen stopped in front of her.

"His Royal Highness doesn't pay attention to his body, and things will happen more in the future, but you can bear some of them." After speaking, Changsun Jingchen took off his cloak, wrapped it around Jun Jinyu, and leaned over slightly to lift it up. She brought her hands to her lips and breathed out, "I can't do this in the future."
