"Nie Jiu."
"Princess." Nie Jiu let go of Mo Feng.
Mo Feng felt very complicated when he saw the living Xiao Lingyu standing in front of him again.
Fortunately, the princess is still alive, so they are not considered to have deceived the prince.
"Prince Shun, my prince is still waiting for news. I will return now."
"Go ahead."
"Please, Prince Shun, have me bring Qing Xudong and his daughter back to the Crown Prince's residence. My prince has learned today that the person behind this is the Imperial Concubine, and he will report it to the Emperor. They are witnesses and need to come forward to testify against the Imperial Concubine."
"Xiao Yu, what do you think?"
Xiao Lingyu thought of Wu Youshu. Xiao's mother's death was also caused by Cui Wan, and Cui Wan must die.
However, she wanted to see Emperor Qianyuan's attitude and whether he would sentence Cui Wan to death based on the existing evidence.
"Okay, you can take Qing Xudong and his daughter back to the Grand Prince's Palace. Don't make things difficult for them."
"It's the princess."
Su Xingyi glanced at Nie Jiu. Did Nie Jiu understand and follow Mo Feng and his group to the eldest prince's mansion?
When Xiao Tianci got the news, he breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, he didn’t have to put on a show anymore!
"Your Highness, Princess, Lord Xiao has arranged for the white banners and the mourning hall to be removed."
"Nie Ying, it's time for Wu Youshu to come to the palace. Go and bring him back and place him in the West Garden. Keep a good eye on him."
"Yes!" Nie Ying replied and left. Su Xingyi asked, "Xiao Yu, can you tell me now why Wu Youshu was kept until now? Instead of being exiled with the Cui family?"
"There was a hidden story behind my mother's death. She was murdered!"
Su Xingyi was surprised, "Could it be Cui Wan who did it too?!"
"Yes, it's her. If I hadn't run into Wu Youshu, I would have remained in the dark. Cui Wan and Feng Jinxiu had planned this long ago. They first arranged for Qinglian to enter the eldest prince's mansion as an orphan to act as her spy, waiting for the organization to trap Feng Jinyu. There were no major moves in those years. I guess they didn't think of a good solution. I remember that I was going to marry Feng Jinyu after I came of age, and the emperor also promised to make Feng Jinyu the crown prince on the day of our wedding."
Su Xingyi: "Cui Wan didn't want Feng Jinyu to be made the crown prince. If I'm not mistaken, the year you came of age, our mother fell ill. We invited the best doctor at the time, Wu Youshu, the imperial physician, to see her. Wu Youshu has always been Cui Wan's man, but our mother's illness only got worse."
"That's right. Wu Youshu said he had no other options. When we went to ask him again, he retired and returned to his hometown. My mother didn't last long."
Xiao Lingyu grew angrier as he spoke. "If I hadn't discovered Wu Youshu at the Cui residence, I would still have believed my mother died of natural causes. I never knew she was murdered!"
"Xiao Yu, don't be angry. Cui Wan will soon pay the price for what she did." Su Xingyi comforted Xiao Lingyu's emotions, feeling a little relieved in his heart.
If Xiaoyu had not observed filial piety, he would have had no chance to marry her.
Alas, Feng Jinyu is so pitiful. To be honest, he feels quite sympathetic towards him.
But now everything is good. Feng Jinyu has married and is about to become a father.
It will be better for him when he gets to the top.
The three siblings leaned against the door and heard the couple's conversation clearly.
Their grandmother was also murdered.
The three little ones didn't know how to comfort Xiao Lingyu, so they left the main house and went to the octagonal pavilion to sigh.
"Sister, can you let your little pet sneak into the palace tonight and scare that imperial concubine?"
Xiao Xier glimpsed Shangguan Jinnian approaching from the corner of her eye. "Is this Beiyi or the capital? The Imperial Palace is our father's real home. We can't mess up our home. Before nightfall, the Imperial Concubine will pay the price."
"Will the Emperor sentence her to death?"
"Who should be sentenced to death?" Shangguan Jinnian entered the pavilion and subconsciously sat in the main seat, not realizing that he had regarded himself as an elder.
"The Imperial Concubine in the palace is the murderer behind the persecution of the eldest prince and the poisoning of my mother!"
Shangguan Jinnian was surprised. "Is that the mother who was demoted to the commoner Feng Jinxiu?"
"Exactly."
Shangguan Jinnian raised a mocking smile, "She hurt the wrong person!"
The Su brothers and sisters changed their expressions when they heard this. Fortunately, his father did not grow up in the palace, otherwise he would have been badly harmed by Cui Wan!
The back door of the eldest prince's mansion.
Xu Mo saw Mo Feng bringing Qinglian back and came forward with a sullen face, "Qinglian! Tell the truth..."
"Xu Mo, don't be impulsive. This is not the place to talk." Mo Feng quickly interrupted, "The father and daughter have already explained. Let's go see the prince."
Are they father and daughter?
What does it mean?
Xu Mo looked at Qingxu with a puzzled look, then at Qinglian. After a moment, his eyes widened, filled with anger!
Qinglian was so scared that she lowered her head and hid beside Qingxu as she entered the eldest prince's mansion.
Xu Mo's brows furrowed even deeper. Qinglian was too good at hiding.
This person doesn't look like he knows martial arts at all, he's just an expert at light work!
No wonder the prince fell for it!
One of his brothers suddenly came over and said, "Brother Mo, Princess Xiao has come back from the dead."
"Stop talking nonsense!" Xu Mo was furious. He was holding back his anger. If he couldn't beat Qinglian, couldn't he teach one of his subordinates a lesson?
"Brother Mo, don't be angry. I'm telling the truth. Princess Xiao didn't fall for it. She was just putting on an act for the people behind the scenes!"
"Then tell me who is behind this?"
"I was guarding outside the bamboo forest and didn't hear anything. I can see that the princess is really alive."
"Is the princess really alive?"
"It's absolutely true, it can't be false!"
Xu Mo breathed a sigh of relief. That was great. As long as the princess was still alive, it wouldn't count as deceiving the prince.
When Xie Wanyi learned that Mo Feng had returned with Qinglian, she hurried to Xiaoyun Pavilion.
As they reached the main house door, Feng Jinyu's voice rang out, "It was Cui Wan who persecuted me. Was Feng Jinxiu involved?"
"Your Highness, I don't know whether Feng Jinxiu was involved or not. I was just following orders."
Xie Wanyi frowned when she heard the unfamiliar voice. Who was this?
"Xu Mo, Mo Feng, Li Yuanliang, please prepare immediately. I will personally go to the palace to meet the emperor."
"Your Highness." Xie Wanyi hurried in. "You are not in good health to enter the palace now. Let me go in your place."
"It's okay. I'm feeling better now. I have to go to the palace myself and seek justice for myself. If Cui Wan isn't severely punished, wouldn't it be a waste of Princess Xiao's performance to fake her own death while pregnant?"
Cui Wan shouldn't have sent someone to poison Princess Xiao, forcing her to act while pregnant.
He originally thought that Xiao Lingyu just had a miscarriage, but he didn't know that Cui Wan wanted to poison her!
"Your Highness, what did you say?" Xie Wanyi was shocked. "Did the princess fake her death?"
When Feng Jinyu saw Xie Wanyi's expression, he knew that Xiao Lingyu was acting sincerely and had deceived everyone.
"Yes, Mo Feng was frightened when he saw Princess Xiao."
"That's great, I'm glad that Sister Princess is okay. I once thought that Sister Princess was dead, and I was worried about how to tell you the truth."
Feng Jinyu knew that Xie Wanyi was holding onto his body and didn't want him to be upset, so he felt very relieved and decided to treat her well in the future.
"Wanyi, it's getting late. I have to go to the palace. Wait for me to come back."
