"What? Are you still afraid that your father will lie to you?" Shen Kuo glanced at her, and a strong sense of oppression came over her.
Chen Kuo had already decided to drag her into this, and now she had no choice but to agree even if she didn't want to.
The queen was shocked. She didn't expect that her father had planned everything.
Even she was included in the plan. If she didn't agree, she might not be able to go out easily through this door.
She gathered her thoughts and finally agreed.
Shen Kuo patted her shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't worry, you will definitely benefit after the matter is accomplished."
"When daddy becomes the emperor, you will be the princess."
Then he gave me an expression that said you understand.
She doesn't care whether she is a princess or not, but daddy is afraid that she won't agree, so give her some sweet treats.
Unfortunately, she is not a three-year-old child, and these are not enough for her.
"Daddy, about Yoona..." the Queen brought up the matter again.
Right now, what she wanted to know most was what happened to Yoona, and she must avenge Yoona.
Shen Kuo's smile froze instantly, and he almost forgot about it.
He knew that his daughter cared a lot about this son, and as long as he had the bargaining chips in his hands, he was afraid that she would not be obedient.
It is easy for him to control the fate of others.
Chen Kuo sighed softly and said sadly: "It's such a pity for Yuner. If the emperor hadn't been so hard-hearted and sent Yuner to the border, Yuner wouldn't have died."
The Queen's face instantly darkened. Shen Kuo secretly observed her expression and was pleased with this change.
The emperor is the indirect murderer of your son. You won't be reluctant to harm him now, will you?
He went on to say, "Don't worry, I have sent people to look for it. I believe it will be found soon."
"As for Ling Yi, he is now in prison and can't escape. As long as he dies, it will definitely provoke the Cang Ao Kingdom to start a war."
The Queen had no complaints about Shen Kuo's arrangement.
Her frowning brows now relaxed.
It was a dark night, there was not a single star in the sky, and everything was silent.
A carriage traveling on the empty street sounded particularly hollow.
The queen came out of the Shen Mansion with an uneasy heart.
She held the bottle of medicine tightly in her hand, and her nervous heart instantly calmed down when she thought of Emperor Hui's indifference to her.
Your Majesty, you were the first to be unkind, so don't blame me for being unjust. A hint of cruelty flashed in the Queen's eyes.
The carriage quietly drove into the palace while no one was paying attention.
What the queen didn't know was that someone had been following her quietly since she left the palace.
Inside Jinxiu Palace, Mu Nanyan was still awake.
She yawned and looked towards the door, as if waiting for someone.
Jin Fei saw her dozing off and felt distressed. "Yan'er, it's so late, you should go to bed."
At this time now, all the palace maids have gone to bed. If she hadn't been accompanying Yan'er, she would have gone to bed long ago.
Mu Nanyan heard this and said without turning her head: "Mom, you go to sleep first, I need to wait for a while."
Why hasn't that person come yet? It's so late.
As a mother, I was worried that my daughter had to wait so late, so I had to stay with her.
After waiting for half a quarter of an hour, there was finally a noise outside. Although the voice was very low, Mu Nanyan still heard it.
“Here I come.”
"Who's here?" Wan Fei asked curiously.
After dinner, Yan'er kept looking towards the door, and no one knew what she was looking at.
Now that he is here, is he the person she has been waiting for? She has finally waited for him.
A man in black brocade clothes came to the door. He looked ordinary and was hard to spot in the crowd.
He walked towards Mu Nanyan and immediately knelt down. "I have kept the princess waiting for a long time. Please punish me."
Mu Nanyan waved her hand indifferently, "Let's talk about the matter first."
The man stood with his head bowed and said respectfully, "I saw the queen go to the Shen Mansion. The Shen Mansion is heavily guarded. I dare not get too close. I only know that they are plotting something."
"They plotted for three hours, and late at night the queen returned to the palace."
When Concubine Wan heard these words, she finally understood what Mu Nanyan had been waiting for.
It turned out that the Queen was about to start causing trouble.
Her son just died, can't she just be content?
Mu Nanyan was amused when she heard this, it turned out that someone was restless.
In this case, she killed her plan in the cradle. "You continue to keep an eye on the Queen and Shen Kuo, and tell me if there is any movement."
By then, the Queen and Shen Kuo will have a lot of work to do.
Shen Kuo, this old fox, must have said something bad.
After receiving the order to retreat, the man in black disappeared into the darkness.
After getting the news she wanted, Mu Nanyan finally decided to go to sleep.
"What? Ling Yi is dead?" She received this news before she had even fallen asleep for half an hour.
The only person who hates Ling Yi the most is the Queen, but the person who kills him may not be her.
Her father found out that she had gone to the prison to humiliate Ling Yi in the afternoon. If anything happened to him, all the blame would be directed at her.
She can't be that stupid.
Emperor Hui also received the news. He was busy reviewing memorials until late at night. He finally got to rest early today, but then he received this news.
He got up immediately and personally interrogated the jailer who was in charge of guarding Ling Yi.
"What are you all doing? You can't even take care of such an important prisoner." Emperor Hui looked at the people kneeling on the ground with a cold face.
The jailer rarely had the opportunity to see Emperor Hui, but this time he was able to see him only because he had committed a serious crime.
Emperor Huidi's questioning frightened him so much that he kowtowed repeatedly, "Please Your Majesty... Your Majesty, please have mercy. I don't know why our man was knocked unconscious at that time, and the thief took the opportunity to kill him."
Although this was the truth, it seemed like an attempt to shirk responsibility. Moreover, Emperor Hui was already angry, and he was furious when he heard this.
"Come here, drag him away and give him fifty lashes. The rest of them, give them thirty lashes."
Fifty lashes of cane was the greatest mercy Emperor Hui had shown. Although it was not fatal, it was still a level that ordinary people could hardly endure.
Since you have made a mistake, you must be punished. Otherwise, how can you take on the responsibility of guarding the cell?
As an emperor, he must be tough on punishment, otherwise it would be difficult to convince the people.
The man kneeling on the ground dared not say anything more after hearing this, "Thank you, Lord."
He was lucky that he was not killed, but he must be more careful in the future.
Emperor Hui originally wanted to block the news of Ling Yi's murder, but he didn't know who leaked it.
The next day, Emperor Hui received news that the army of Cang'ao State had entered the country.
What they said was that either they voluntarily compensated with a city, or their Cang'ao Kingdom would never give up.
Humph, the death of just a small general is worth the loss of an entire city.
He saw that the lion of Cang'ao country was asking for a lot of money and wanted to grab everything.
Emperor Hui was very depressed when he received the news. If the two countries went to war, the people would suffer more.
However, their Nanzhao Kingdom has never been afraid of anyone. As long as they dare to provoke them, they will accept the challenge.
