Chapter 471 The Princess's Ambition
Zhu Mingbo was busy reviewing memorials in the study in the main hall.
Sitting in his position, he could see Yu Tingfeng's desk by looking up.
The reason for this arrangement in the past was to be closer to the master and respond to the master's requests more quickly. He knew what to do with just one look.
Now that the master is no longer in that position, he has the final say on everything.
But when he thought of a difficult problem, he would still involuntarily look up at that place, hoping to get some affirmative answer, or opinion, or a question in return, or even a nod of the head.
But now no one responded to him.
He was not panicked, but instead felt inexplicably excited and thrilled.
This feeling of being able to control everything and decide everything by himself makes every cell in his body jump and makes others want to scream at every moment.
Finally waited for this day.
He withdrew his gaze and looked at another person in the room.
It was Princess Qinyi, sitting on the chair beside him, embroidering flowers.
These days, because their marriage has been announced to the public, the princess often appears in this hall.
Unexpectedly, when Zhu Mingbo raised his head and turned to look at Princess Qinyi, the princess also looked up at him.
Qin Yi asked, "Is there something difficult?"
So Zhu Mingbo told Qinyi about the difficult problem in his mind, and Qinyi responded with ease and quickly gave a solution.
"The princess is truly exceptionally intelligent. I am ashamed to be inferior to her."
"Mingbo, there's no need to flatter me. If you were not as good as me, how could I have found you!" Qinyi always spoke so gently and slowly.
But it makes people feel very comfortable when listening to it.
She didn't stay in Prince Yu's Mansion for nothing. The books she read filled three rooms.
The years she spent in the palace were not in vain. Every day, different eunuchs would tell her everything they heard in the main hall and the study, no matter how big or small.
What happened, who solved it, how it was solved, and so on.
Qinyi wrote down all the information she got and practiced it one by one.
The palace was full of her people, but she remained calm because her brother was very powerful.
Originally, Qin Yi thought that if her brother could not control the government, then she would be the one to kill the three prime ministers, and she would replace her brother to become Emperor Yuanwu.
But she didn't expect that her brother was not only smart, but also very tough. He not only killed the three prime ministers, but also became the most powerful king in Kyushu.
All of Qinyi's dreams came to nothing.
But she didn't want that.
When her brother brought Feng Aoqing back to Yuanwu and took away two countries for Feng Aoqing, making her the first empress in Jiuzhou, her dream was rekindled.
Since Feng Aoqing can be the empress, why can't she?
Originally, she should have been the first empress of Jiuzhou.
So she found a helper.
Qin Yi had tested this helper many years ago, and she knew that this helper had a restless heart.
She knew why this helper often asked her brother to marry a princess or a county lady instead of a beautiful girl from a wealthy family.
From this, Qin Yi knew that he was disgusted with his identity.
No matter how rich your family is, you are just an ordinary person.
He must marry these princesses and princesses so that his descendants can have a better status.
When Yu Tingfeng arranged a marriage for him with the sister of a loyal minister, he did not refuse but was still thinking of a way. Then he found out that the maid beside the lady was Nan Kangzhen. It was him who made the maid persuade the lady to take medicine and get eye disease, and then he naturally refused the marriage.
And he also got a reputation for being infatuated.
It wasn't because the lady had rejected other marriage proposals, but because the other party was not the one he wanted.
When Qinyi found him, the two hit it off immediately.
Zhu Mingbo didn't even ask why.
Princess Qinyi understood, because he had seen Qinyi's thoughts early on.
In their words, this is a match made in heaven.
They began to plan the deaths of Yu Tingfeng and Feng Aoqing.
It's too difficult, too difficult for them.
So they started with the people around the two men, those who were close to them and could protect them.
With fewer guards, they naturally have more opportunities.
Qinyi is a woman who is very good at judging people.
She knew what the other party wanted, and she also knew that anyone could betray their master, their friends, and their relatives as long as the conditions were met.
Now that Feng Aoqing is dead, Yu Tingfeng is not far from death.
Even if he could pull himself together, he would certainly not be as good as before because he was missing a rib.
What's more, Qin Yi will not give him a chance to cheer up again, and as long as he leaves Wudu, he will be more likely to die.
The princess and Lord Zhu in the study of the main hall smiled at each other.
The two of them then lowered their heads to work, Zhu Mingbo reviewed memorials and Princess Qinyi embroidered.
Whenever Zhu Mingbo raised his head, Princess Qinyi would raise her head at the same time, as if they were in perfect sync.
I don't know who is observing whom.
When they heard footsteps outside the hall at the same time, they looked up at each other first, and then looked towards the hall door.
The eunuch outside the palace gate rushed into the palace tremblingly and said, "Princess, Master Zhu, something terrible has happened."
Zhu Mingbo calmed himself down and looked at Princess Qinyi again.
Then he said, "Don't panic, speak slowly."
The young eunuch knelt down in front of Zhu Mingbo, trembling, and placed a letter on his desk.
Zhu Mingbo opened the letter.
The emperor took Feng Aoqing's coffin back to Zhaojing.
We traveled by water.
While sailing in the canal, the boat accidentally caught fire, was completely burned, and sank to the bottom of the river.
Local transportation officials immediately sent people to salvage the vessel.
All the bodies were fished out from downstream, as well as the white jade coffin that sank to the bottom of the river.
Because of the water flow, the white jade coffin has been opened and there is nothing inside.
So they continued searching and found another woman's body. It was swollen from being soaked in water and had been eaten almost entirely by fish, but it was the only body that had not been burned.
The corpse was wearing a priceless jewel bracelet on its wrist. It was an heirloom of the Yuanwu royal family. It was not easy to remove once worn, so it was not separated from the corpse.
Zhu Mingbo stood up and handed the letter to Princess Qinyi.
Princess Qinyi looked carefully and held Zhu Mingbo's hand tightly.
Zhu Mingbo said to the eunuch, "Go down."
The young eunuch left the hall and closed the door. What he heard coming from the room was not crying, but a hearty laugh.
"I wish you all the best now. The entire Yuanwu is in your hands."
Zhu Mingbo replied, "Princess, this is what you wish for. You will be the true first empress of Jiuzhou."
Qin Yi smiled and nodded: "From now on, our children, regardless of gender, whoever is capable will inherit the throne."
Lord Zhu nodded and smiled, "That's right, Princess."
