Chapter 22 Severing the Father-Daughter Relationship with Princess An
Yue Zhi endured the pain and slowly stood up. She spat at Xiao Junze and cursed with gritted teeth, "Bah, dog emperor, don't think I don't know that my young master was murdered by you."
"If you are an unkind ruler, or an unkind brother, Heaven will punish you..."
If I fall into their hands, I will die anyway, so I might as well provoke him and kill him.
As expected, before Yuezhi could finish her words, she was kicked to the ground by Ji, the steward beside Xiao Junze.
Chief Steward Ji said sharply, "How dare you insult His Majesty! Are you tired of living?"
Xiao Junze stood with his hands behind his back and said to the man in black at the side, "Kill him and throw him into the mass grave!"
If you don't tell me, is there nothing I can do?
Humph! You underestimate my abilities.
The man in black clasped his fists and said, "I obey your command!"
Xiao Junze walked out of the dark prison, a cold light flashing in his eyes.
As an unkind brother, I want to let the people of the world know how much he loves his younger brother.

On the way back to the palace, Jiang Ruo felt like she was about to take off.
However, it is not too early to be happy. There are still a lot of treasures in the palace treasury. If possible, she really wants to take the entire Prince An's Palace into the space.
An Er followed behind like a punching bag, looking at Jiang Ruo jumping around in front of him, feeling like crying but unable to shed tears.
He wanted to go back and tell the housekeeper that he wanted to stay in the mansion to guard the prince.
The princess was so wild, he was afraid that he couldn't protect her with his own abilities.
Jiang Ruo noticed An Er's dissatisfaction and stopped, "You have a problem with this princess, right?"
An Er nodded, then quickly shook his head, "I dare not!"
"Don't dare?"
"I'm telling you, if you have any opinions, keep them to yourself and don't tell anyone about what happened tonight. Do you hear me?" After Jiang Ruo finished speaking, she glared at An Er fiercely.
By the way, the way that little girl Dongxue looks at An Er is not right, there is admiration and worship...
Alas, girls cannot be kept at home when they grow up!
An Er twitched his lips and clasped his fists, saying, "I obey your command!"
The princess is so fierce, the prince's status is worrying!
After returning to the palace, Jiang Ruo hummed a little tune and returned to her room.
In fact, Xiao Chengjin woke up when Jiang Ruo went out.
This woman has martial arts skills to protect herself, so she sneaks out in the middle of the night to cause trouble!
Xiao Chengjin complained in his heart: Oh, I hope I don’t run into a tough guy and get beaten up.
He pricked up his ears to listen to the sounds in the room, and when he heard Jiang Ruo humming a little tune, he breathed a sigh of relief.
You are in such a good mood, you must have won.
Jiang Ruo took off her nightgown and lay down on the small couch. Thinking of the gold, silver and jewelry in the space, she couldn't help but smile.
She rolled over on the small couch and came to Xiao Chengjin's side. She patted his handsome face and whispered happily, "Sister, let me tell you! From now on, sister will be the richest woman in the world."
Xiao Chengjin: She sneaked out in the middle of the night just to...rob!
I heard from Housekeeper Lin that the management of the palace's household has been handed over to her.
Uh...has she spent all the money in the palace?
Just as Xiao Chengjin was complaining, he heard Jiang Ruo covering her mouth and laughing.
"From now on, I want to buy eight handsome men, no, sixteen. You pick eight first, and the rest are mine."
"How is it? Sister is very loyal, isn't she?"
Xiao Chengjin felt that sooner or later he would be angered to death by this woman.
Do you still want to find eight handsome men and treat him as dead?
Well! According to the current situation, he is indeed no different from dead.
However, the woman seemed to have always been confident that he would get better.
Yes, he couldn't be angry, he wanted to wake up early and see her.
Jiang Ruo was not sleepy, so she turned over and rolled back onto her small couch.
Before dawn, she has one more important thing to do...
————
The Imperial Palace, inside the Golden Throne Hall.
Xiao Junze looked at the imperial edict in front of him, which was stamped with the imperial seal, and tapped the table rhythmically with his fingers.
After so long, Princess An still hasn't completed what she had arranged.
Another possibility is that the people in Prince An's Mansion are too vigilant and Princess An cannot find an opportunity.
Forget it, she is just a useless woman, what can you expect her to do?
"Master Ji, this must be done properly. Remember, even if you have to dig three feet deep... you must find what I want."
Chief Steward Ji lowered his eyebrows and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, please rest assured. This old servant will take care of this matter!"
Being born in the royal family, it's either you or I. We can only blame His Royal Highness Prince An for being too aloof.
If I had handed over the things left by the late emperor earlier, would I have ended up like this?
The sky was just beginning to turn pale, and the civil and military officials entered the palace to attend the morning court as usual.
The first minister who stepped into the Golden Palace was shocked when he saw Xiao Junze sitting on the dragon throne.
He calmed himself down and saluted Xiao Junze tremblingly.
What's going on?
The sun rises from the west?
The emperor... Could it be that something big happened in the palace?
The minister walked lightly to his seat and glanced at Xiao Junze above him.
The emperor's expression looked very strange. Something big must have happened.
The minister huddled there like a quail.
The ministers who followed were also confused and decided to wait and see what would happen.
At the same time, Jiang Ruo had already put all the things in Prince An's Mansion into the space.
Not even a single fish was left in the pond.
All ornaments inlaid with gold, silver, jade and other precious stones were taken away.
Jiang Ruo woke up Madam Liu and Dongxue, gave them enough silver, and asked them to take Ji Yunce and wait outside the city first.
Although the three of them didn't understand why Jiang Ruo made such arrangements, they still obeyed Jiang Ruo's words.
Jiang Ruo watched the three people leave through the back door and nodded with satisfaction.
This saves a lot of trouble.
In the court.
Xiao Junze accused Xiao Chengjin of "various crimes" with great sorrow and anguish.
After hearing this, all the civil and military officials instantly understood what it meant!
For a moment, there was an uproar in the court.
The secret accumulation of troops with the intention of rebellion was false, but the emperor took advantage of Prince An's illness... to kill him!
After Jiang Qinian knew Xiao Junze's intention, his brain started working quickly.
It seems that Jiang Ruo's daughter is completely useless.
In that case, just give up!
In full view of the crowd, Jiang Qinian stepped forward.
"Your Majesty, I hereby announce that I have severed my father-daughter relationship with Princess An."
Jiang Qinian's words caused many ministers to complain.
You old fox, you must have had a purpose in letting Princess An go to get married!
Now he has completely taken over the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Xiao Junze looked at Jiang Qinian standing in front of him, his eyes flashing.
You old fox, you let your daughter go to get married in the first place. Your motives must be impure!
Next, two ministers received Xiao Junze's signal and began to advise on how to deal with Xiao Chengjin.
It is nothing more than imprisoning all the people in Prince An's Mansion for life and executing them all.
Xiao Junze strongly refused this.
In the end, Xiao Junze made the final decision while crying.
Xiao Chengjin was demoted to a commoner, and all the people in Prince An's mansion were exiled to Jizhou.
What happened in the court was quickly transmitted by the spies in the palace.
A man in black quickly ran back to Prince An's Mansion.
"Princess, something bad has happened..."
