coming.

Even though Wanqiu was by her side, she still didn't feel safe at all. She wanted to recall the ninth-grade archer Yan Xiaoyi, but then she thought of something else.

Maintaining a calm posture and smile, elegant and graceful.

It's normal to be insecure, but they don't know this...

In the Shangshi Hall, Emperor Qing, the Crown Prince, and the Second Prince sat upright around a table.

All kinds of delicious food could not impress the Second Prince, a gourmet, leaving him with a dry mouth and a panic in his heart.

The prince was in an even worse condition, but with the encouragement of Guo Baokun through sound transmission notes, he was still able to hold his own.

Emperor Qing remained calm and slammed the table, hinting at these two evil creatures.

If this situation is disrupted by these two evildoers, he will let Fan County take over!

Not long after, when the eldest princess arrived, she saw three expressionless fathers and sons.

This is consistent with the way these three have interacted in the past.

He lowered his head and smiled pleasantly as a greeting.

"Are you all here? Then let's start the banquet. Today is a family dinner, so please be casual and don't be so formal."

"Yes."*3

Seeing that the eldest princess acted as if no one was around and picked up her chopsticks slowly, Emperor Qing spoke casually.

"Yun Rui, I heard that you sent someone to assassinate County Fan a few days ago?"

It seems like they are going to call for an explanation, but also like they are just chatting about family matters.

Her heart tightened, and the princess raised her head, only to see Emperor Qing's puzzled expression.

It seems... he doesn't mean to blame her?

Ah……

The eldest princess quickly lowered her head.

"Your Majesty, I have always been law-abiding and have never sent anyone to assassinate that Magistrate Fan."

"Well... you're quite brave, but don't you want to know what the assassins confessed that day?"

"Your Majesty, please speak clearly."

"Humph!"

Emperor Qing's expression immediately turned cold.

"You're the eldest princess, yet you personally take action against an illegitimate child. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at if this gets out? Assassination is one thing, but you're also giving people something to talk about! Tell me, are you brave enough?"

After hearing this, the eldest princess understood what was going on.

It appears to be a reprimand, but in reality it is a small punishment with a big warning.

The eldest princess had experienced this kind of thing many times before.

So, it should be the same this time?

Should I be able to pass it smoothly?

But... I always feel that this level is too easy...

His face became silent, and his eyes became calm.

The obvious changes in the eldest princess made the crown prince and the second prince just sit there and do nothing.

"Does Your Majesty know everything?"

Emperor Qing paused, his eyes still deep and profound.

"What do I know?"

"What does your majesty want to know?"

He was fearless and did not take Emperor Qing's power seriously at all.

If it were in the past, the eldest princess would have forced herself to be tough and knelt down to beg for mercy.

Good, very good!

Emperor Qing lowered his eyes and made a final test in his words.

"So, you think you're so noble that you can openly assassinate a court official? Yes and no!?"

His tone sounded harsh, as if he was just angry about this matter, as if he was only blaming the eldest princess for bringing disgrace to the royal family.

The eldest princess remained silent.

He knew that his next words would completely determine his life or death.

If you trick them, you can survive, but it's like cooking a pot over a slow fire. If you can't find the real reason, you will die sooner or later.

If you fail to scare him, you will die now!

The eldest princess smiled, a gentle and confident smile.

What kind of people or things would make Emperor Qing pretend to be stupid and try to test them steadily?

Logically speaking, as the person with the highest imperial power, as long as he is not soft-hearted, he can crush everything in the court.

Is Emperor Qing a soft-hearted person?

Naturally not.

Is it hard enough?

hard!

He was so stubborn that the entire court of Qing Kingdom became his own opinion.

Then, the only things that can make Emperor Qing afraid are those that are beyond the ordinary and beyond common sense.

For example, the reason why Emperor Qing never left the palace all year round.

For example, the earth-shaking vision that occurred a few days ago.

For example, there is a certain illusory supporter behind me.

So, the eldest princess looked at Emperor Qing, and listened to every word.

"It is His will that the preacher should die."

He! ?

who! ?

"It's Liu..."

The prince's horrified muttering made the eldest princess feel like her heart was stopping.

willow?

who is it?

Emperor Qing, who was frantically imagining things but was obviously frightened by Liu Ruyu's pervasive schemes, stated the answer somewhat dejectedly.

"Are you really Liu Ruyu's man... But when did you meet her..."

Who?

Liu Ruyu! ?

The eldest princess was confused.

He went through the list of all the people he thought were most likely candidates in his mind, but the only person missing was a housewife like Liu Ruyu.

Recalling the one time when Liu Ruyu visited her relatives, the eldest princess fell into inexplicable silence.

Chapter 58 Liu Ruyu: Huh? I'm the mastermind?

There are pictures here, which can be viewed after the updated version

Liu Ruyu, she had seen this sister before.

After all, she is Concubine Yi's sister, and it is normal for her to visit her relatives, so the eldest princess has met her once.

But that self-righteous little shrew was too naive in the eyes of the eldest princess.

Just a woman living in a deep house.

Looking back at the door slowly closing, the princess suddenly felt that the deep and fearful look in Emperor Qing's eyes was ridiculous.

How could the dignified ruler of Qing Kingdom be so fearful that he dared not even confront a woman from a secluded house?!

Is this reasonable?

Well, quite reasonable.

Even if it is unreasonable, the princess must make it reasonable.

Having never heard of Fan County's "popular science", she could only try her best to imagine the abilities of a woman living in a secluded house.

After returning to the palace, he didn't even have time to drink a sip of tea before he started writing a letter to "cry out".

"Go and deliver this letter to Madam Liu at the Fan residence and ask her to make the final decision."

There was no warmth in the eldest princess' eyes, as if she was looking at a dead person.

Late autumn understood.

If I go there, there is a high possibility that I will not be able to come back.

But she is a maid, and also a dead waiter, so the princess's words are absolutely...

On the other side, Liu Ruyu, with a worried look on her face, was still calculating carefully with an abacus.

damn thing!

Fan County has my grandfather's support, and the family has money flowing like water. It's my money!

I want to keep it for my silly son to get married!

"Madam, otherwise, let's cut back a little, otherwise what will the young master do in the future?"

The maid beside her also had a sad face. Since the lady couldn't defeat County Fan, she used their servants' wages to pay off the debt.

If there is even the slightest mistake, wages will be deducted, and the deductions are very severe!

Liu Ruyu could hear the girl's little thoughts.

He grumbled in dissatisfaction.

Who is she?

Madam Liu from the Fan Mansion!

Which servant doesn’t know how terrifying Madam Liu Ruyu is?

Do you know that your wages are deducted?

That subordinate is really cruel...

He was just complaining to himself, thinking that Fan County had spent too much money, when someone reported that the princess had sent someone to his house.

"who!?"

Liu Ruyu raised her voice a pitch.

Scared.

Concubine Yi was her elder sister, and she often told her about people she should avoid.

Among them, the eldest princess was the first.

She didn't even bother to think about it, and just walked out quickly with her maids and greeted Wanqiu with a smile.

Wanqiu said nothing, but carefully handed the envelope to Liu Ruyu personally and bowed deeply, which made Liu Ruyu flattered and she helped him up repeatedly.
