Even Qiu Zijun seemed stunned by this result.
She didn't expect that waiting for her would be this past...
She frowned slightly and stared at the eldest princess, Tan Tai Jin Yu, until she was sure she was not lying. Then she asked, "What is the truth about Zong Weiping's death?!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a woman's scream came from the crowd at the back of the hall.
"Weiping! Weiping! She knows the truth about Weiping's death?!"
"I knew Weiping wouldn't die so easily!"
"Let me out! Let me out! Let me out!"
"I want to ask her myself! I want to ask her myself!"
Qiu Zijun looked up and saw that it was the group of people with the nobles, who were making a commotion at the moment.
Since the conflict between the eldest princess and Ye Shijie began, the people attending the funeral in the hall naturally split into two groups.
One group is made up of aristocrats, and the other group is made up of high-ranking government officials.
Of course, those who are both nobles and high-ranking government officials are still with their noble families.
The people on the top government side are all government officials who are pure civilians or citizens, and they form a group of their own.
The person who made the sound at this moment should be Zong Weiping's widow - Su Shuangluo.
Because Qiu Zijun concentrated her mental power on dealing with the eldest princess Tan Tai Jin Yu and relaxed her control over other people in the hall, Su Shuangluo actually had the opportunity to break free from her mental control.
Qiu Zijun withdrew his gaze and immediately increased the release of his mental power, covering the entire temple hall again.
The woman's screams also stopped abruptly.
The people over there found it even harder to kneel.
Qiu Zijun then looked at the eldest princess, Tantai Jinyu, and raised her voice, saying, "Tantai Jinyu, the Zong Weiping you're talking about is not he the eldest son of the Grand Duke of the Zong family, the husband of Su Shuangluo, the sister of the High Priest Su Yanxing, and the first heir to the Zong family title thirty years ago?"
Princess Tantai Jinyu's face was filled with pain, but she had to nod: "Yes, it's him!"
Qiu Zijun paused, then asked word by word, "But, we all know that Marshal Zong Weiping won a great victory on the interstellar battlefield thirty years ago, but when he was leading his fleet back, he encountered a space rift and was caught in it, which is why he died."
"Mr. Zong Weiping himself is not only the Imperial Marshal, one of the five most powerful military chiefs of staff, but also the heir to the Zong family."
"At that time, his status in the empire was no less than that of His Majesty the Emperor!"
"What truth could possibly be behind the death of someone of such stature? And why would you need to cover it up?!"
What Qiu Zijun asked was exactly the question on everyone's mind.
Yes, with Zong Weiping's status back then, not to mention the current Chief Inspector of the Special Security Bureau Huo Yushen was far behind him, even the Emperor Tan Tai Hongyuan who had just ascended the throne thirty years ago had to show him great respect!
He's incredibly powerful, so who could possibly do anything to him?!
But the eldest princess, Tan Tai Jin Yu, said that it was she who killed Zong Weiping!
In order to cover up the truth about Zong Weiping's death, the entire Ying family was slaughtered!
This is ridiculous!
Everyone couldn't help but think, if it was said that the emperor wanted to kill Zong Weiping, they would believe it...
But the eldest princess Tan Tai Jin Yu?
They really don't believe it.
She and Zong Weiping had no connection. Apart from being uncle and sister-in-law, they were not familiar with each other at all.
At this moment, many people labeled Zong Weiping as "a man whose achievements were so great that they threatened the emperor", saying that this was the kind of person that would attract the murderous intent of an emperor!
So, can we really believe what the eldest princess says now?
Only the high priest Su Yanxing had an increasingly strange expression on his face.
Because he knew that every word Princess Tan Tai Jin Yu said at this moment was true!
These are all the secrets in her heart!
And he even knew some secrets that the people present did not know.
For example, the eldest princess, Tan Tai Jin Yu, was once madly in love with Zong Weiping and wanted to marry him very much.
Unfortunately, Zong Weiping was not polite to the eldest princess and fell in love with his sister Su Shuangluo...
At that time, the eldest princess still had some dignity and hid it very well. The only people who knew about this matter, besides the person involved, were the high priest and Emperor Tan Tai Hongyuan.
After Zong Weiping and Su Shuangluo got married, the eldest princess Tan Tai Jinyu also quickly married Zong Weiping's younger brother Zong Weiding.
It can be said that I finally have some connection with Zong Weiping.
And all of this cannot be told to outsiders.
After Qiu Zijun finished speaking, seeing that the eldest princess didn't answer, she said softly, "Hmm?"
Princess Tantai Jinyu closed her eyes, completely unable to control her mouth, and spoke again: "Because...back then, it was me who had someone tamper with Zong Weiping's starship navigation..."
"I want him dead! I want him dead!"
"I love him!"
"The person I love most in my life is him! Only him!"
"Everything I do is for him!"
"But he doesn't appreciate it. He doesn't want me! He would rather marry a timid, unpresentable bitch who can't bring him any benefits than even look at me!"
"Since he doesn't want me, then no one else wants him!"
"After that great victory on the interstellar battlefield, he set off for home with a huge interstellar fleet."
"My people lurked in his fleet, disrupted its navigation, and then left early."
"My people saw with their own eyes that huge fleet breaking into the space rift on the starry battlefield. They confirmed that there were no survivors before returning to report to me!"
Qiu Zijun immediately asked, "Where's that guy? Is he still there?"
