Chapter 205 House Arrest
Su Chenyu once again drew everyone's attention to Rong Ruo's matter.
Hearing this, Emperor Jing of Wei coughed twice and said, "Feng Yi is right, Crown Princess, you should give us an explanation of what happened last night."
Rong Ruo was still trying to argue, but Su Jinwei spoke first: "Rong Ruo, stop saying those things you said before. You're just making everyone laugh at you."
Rong Ruoyu was speechless. She didn't expect that Su Jinwei wouldn't give her any face at all.
Su Jinwei himself had his own considerations. The defense map was related to the safety of Dayu, so he was now making his attitude clear. If Rong Ruo really wanted to spread the defense map, he would stay out of it.
"The defense map is so important, how could I possibly have it?" Rong Ruo asked, "Recently, the Duke of Zhenguo went to Beijing, and this northwest defense map appeared. Maybe the Duke of Zhenguo and some people have teamed up to frame me. Father, you can't be deceived by those people."
"Why did you go into the mountains last night?" Emperor Jing of Wei asked.
Rong Ruo couldn't explain this: "My son, my son..."
"Enough!" Emperor Jing of Wei looked at Rong Ruo with some disappointment. The people of Beirong were untrustworthy, but he did not expect Rong Ruo to betray Dayu so quickly.
"Rong Ruo, now that you are the Crown Princess of Dayu, you should think clearly about your identity. Since you care about Beirong, I will send you there."
Hearing this, Rong Ruo subconsciously wanted to beg Emperor Jing of Wei, but was stopped by Afu.
Changing her previous silence, Afu stood in front of Rong Ruo and looked at Emperor Jing of Wei: "Your Majesty, you have to think about it. If you send the Crown Princess to Beirong, it will be a formal declaration of war with Beirong. If Xixia is eyeing Dayu covetously, if you become an enemy of Beirong at this time, won't you force Beirong to unite with Xixia to deal with Dayu together?"
Emperor Jing of Wei's expression changed slightly. Indeed, now was not the time to fall out with the Northern Rong.
A Fu knew that if Rong Ruo begged Emperor Jing of Wei, she might not get the result she wanted, so it would be better for her to take a tougher attitude so that she could continue to stay in Dayu.
He couldn't fall out with Beirong, but if he took a step back in front of so many people, where was his dignity?
Thinking of this, Emperor Jing of Wei looked at Su Jinwei and said, "Prince, what do you think about this?"
Su Jinwei didn't like Rong Ruo in the first place, especially after Rong Ruo entered the Crown Prince's Mansion, she showed no signs of restraining her temper. He couldn't stand her any longer: "If that's the case, then remove her from the position of Crown Princess and imprison her in the Heavenly Prison. Beirong is in the wrong in this matter, so do you think Beirong should seek justice for her?"
This way of handling the matter is indeed a relief.
As long as the Rong people are still in Dayu, the peace treaty between Dayu and Northern Rong will remain.
But there is always something wrong with this.
"Su Jinwei, you hypocrite!" Rong Ruo cursed, "If you dare to treat me like this, you will definitely be despised by the world."
The news of imprisoning his own wife had a great impact on Su Jinwei.
However, if the crime committed by Rong Ruo were to be spread, it would, to some extent, offend the Northern Rong, which was not what Emperor Jing of Wei wanted to see.
