"Quickly, hurry up, take the wise prince away to rest."

Upon seeing this, Li Mufeng hurriedly gave instructions to Zhao Hu, who was standing to the side.

"Everyone saw it! The Prince Xian wanted to kill me to silence me. Waaah... Late Emperor! How could you be so cruel as to abandon me? How am I supposed to live now! Waaah..."

Han Ruyi became even more energetic, her long eyelashes trembled, and seeing that more and more people were watching, she threw a tantrum like a shrew.

I've already inquired; the Prince Xian can't handle any more shocks. If the Prince Xian goes mad again, and Li Mufeng isn't in the capital, then I'll be in charge of the capital.

Unexpectedly, Li Mufeng returned so quickly, so the plan had to be changed. All this charade was just Han Ruyi's way of showing everyone that Li Mutian and Li Mufeng wanted to get rid of her.

In this way, no matter what happens to Han Ruyi in the future, everyone will suspect that it was Li Mufeng and his brother who did it. Even if she does something immoral, everyone will think that they framed her.

Han Ruyi is vicious; her schemes are intricate and flawless.

"All officials have arrived."

A sharp, eunuch-like voice rang out, interrupting Han Ruyi's sinister thoughts.

"Who is it? Who summoned all the officials?"

Looking around, Han Ruyi seemed a little puzzled, her cunning eyes darting around.

"Wouldn't it be better if all the officials were here? If they knew that the Li brothers, Li Mufeng and Li Mufeng, were narrow-minded and could not tolerate me, how could they possibly hold onto their position as crown prince?"

Even if they suspect that I gave Li Mutian the medicine yesterday, so what? They'll only think that their brothers framed them. After muttering to herself, Han Ruyi couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips into a smile.

"Let them in."

Li Mufeng parted his full lips slightly.

"yes."

Upon receiving the order, Eunuch Yu soon brought in all the officials.

"Prince Longxuan, when did you return?"

Everyone was surprised to see Li Mufeng, and then they all bowed to him.

"Your Highness, why have you summoned us here? If there's anything to discuss, we can go to the Imperial Study. The inner palace doesn't seem to be the place for us!"

Grand Tutor Xie Yan spoke first.

"Yes! It's unreasonable, it's unreasonable!"

The ministers nodded in agreement.

"Some things happened in the palace today. I would like to ask you gentlemen to be my witnesses. It's not that I'm heartless, but some people have been courting death, and I have no choice but to put aside my own family for the greater good."

As Li Mufeng spoke, he shifted his body, and everyone was surprised to find that there were several corpses lying inside.

"this……"

People pointed and whispered among themselves.

"Who is so vicious as to dare commit such a heinous act in the palace?"

"In the very bedchamber of Consort Zhen, this is incredibly audacious."

"It seems someone is plotting against Consort Zhen! Who could a mere woman possibly offend?"

"Of course! There must be someone with a conflict of interest. Consort Zhen is pregnant..."

"Yesterday I heard that Prince Xian had... you know... with Consort Zhen. Because of this, Prince Xian was too ashamed to attend the morning court. And now this has happened. Could it be..."

...

Upon hearing that Consort Zhen was pregnant, everyone looked at Li Mufeng with suspicion. Han Ruyi wanted this effect, so she trembled her long eyelashes and then ran out, choking back tears.

"Father, you must stand up for your daughter! Someone tried to kill me. He killed everyone in my 'Lanxiang Pavilion,' sob sob... What did I ever do to deserve this? Sob sob..."

Han Ruyi threw herself into her father Han Bingmo's arms, feeling utterly wronged.

“Your Highness, do not be afraid, all the officials are here! If anyone dares to bully you, I believe the officials will not tolerate it. This old minister will risk his life to protect Your Highness.”

"As expected of his father, those righteous words were spoken by Han Bingmo," he blurted out, while the young master Li Jingchen snorted coldly.

"Your mother is also your daughter, and I don't see you protecting her like this."

"Young Master, don't talk nonsense. How can Ziwei compare to Consort Zhen? Consort Zhen is carrying the Emperor's child and has a noble status. That rebellious Ziwei beats her elders, has no respect for hierarchy, kills without hesitation, and is promiscuous. In the end, she is worse than a beast..."

"ah……"

Before Han Bingmo could finish speaking, he felt a sharp pain in his buttocks and fell towards Han Ruyi.

"Your Highness Consort Zhen..."

Everyone gasped in shock, watching as Han Bingmo pinned Han Ruyi beneath him.

"How come I didn't know I was this bad? Who are you? How dare you slander me like this?"

"Han Ziwei, you unfilial daughter, don't you know that Ruyi is pregnant? If you cause the death of the imperial heir, your entire family will be wiped out."

Han Bingmo struggled to his feet and quickly helped Han Ruyi up with both hands, shouting at the top of his lungs.

"Waaah... My stomach hurts so much! Late Emperor, why did you die so young? Look at them, they're all bullying Ruyi. Ruyi doesn't want to live anymore, waaah..."

As she spoke, she lunged toward a tree, knowing that someone would surely pull her back.

"Your Majesty, you absolutely mustn't! You're pregnant. Even if you don't think of yourself, you have to think of the child in your womb!"

Sure enough, a military officer soon blocked her way.

“King Longxuan, now that you’re back, shouldn’t you say something? How did everyone in ‘Lanxiang Pavilion’ die? And that bitch Ziwei, she just kicked me, indirectly causing Consort Zhen to fall. Shouldn’t she be beaten to death? I won’t stop her.”

Prime Minister Han Bingmo stood tall and resolute, while the young prince Li Jingchen tugged at Han Ziwei's hand.

"Mom, listen to this, listen to what your scumbag father is saying! He deserves to die, I really want to beat him up."

"Then let's beat him up! Let him wake up."

Han Ziwei floated lightly. The young prince Li Jingchen blinked his big, watery eyes, making sure he hadn't misheard. He strode towards Han Bingmo, stood on tiptoe, but found he couldn't reach Han Bingmo's face. So he smacked Han Bingmo's instep hard.

"Hey! What are you doing, young master?"

Han Bingmo reflexively shoved the young master Li Jingchen, who was caught off guard and let out a soft cry.

"ah……"

He then fell backward. Just as Li Mufeng was about to make a move, Xue Ziwei stepped forward and caught him, letting out a long sigh of relief.

"careful."

After helping Li Jingchen to sit up, he slapped Han Bingmo across the face.

"Who gave you the audacity to assault the Crown Prince?"

"You dare to hit me in public..."

Han Bingmo couldn't believe it, and "Blood Purple Rose" slapped him again.

"Didn't you say I assaulted an elder? If I don't prove this crime, how can I give you the opportunity to frame me?"

"Blood Purple Rose" delivered a punch with her left hand and a kick with her right, quickly knocking Han Bingmo to the ground. The assembled officials were dumbfounded, but Grand Tutor Xie Yan stepped forward.

"Prince Longxuan, you must do something about this! Our laws state that we should respect the elderly and care for the young. It is unacceptable to allow Miss Han to humiliate her father like this..."

Before Xie Yan could finish speaking, Li Mufeng grunted.

"Didn't you hear Prime Minister Han insulting his own daughter just now?"

He said, "Let me have Ziwei beaten to death. What good will it do for Ziwei to vent her anger?"

Li Mufeng's protectiveness was obvious, and the officials once again discussed the matter, criticizing Li Mufeng for being too lenient with Han Ziwei and unfair to Han Ruyi.

But then Li Mufeng coughed lightly.

"Miss Han did this to save Prime Minister Han's life. If I had intervened, he would have been beheaded long ago."

"Prime Minister Han has repeatedly protected Consort Zhen, but do you know what Consort Zhen has done in return?"

After Li Mufeng finished speaking, he shouted in a deep voice,

"Bring it up."
