Zuo Junquan was Jun Mochen's little follower, so naturally he knew everything about him, from Sang Liwan at the beginning to Chen Yan later.
Although he looked down on Sang Liwan, it didn't mean that he had any feelings for Chen Yan.
In his opinion, Chen Yan was a very arrogant woman, and it seemed that people like them never existed in her eyes. Even when she saluted, her eyes were still fixed on the top of her head, with a hint of arrogance.
They felt that Chen Yan was just being arrogant because of his talent, and after receiving several compliments from the emperor, he became a little too arrogant.
But Jun Mochen just likes her personality. The more Chen Yan ignores him, the more he comes to her.
Zuo Junquan figured that Jun Mochen was probably born into a noble family and was the Queen's biological son, so he was used to being flattered. This was the first time he met someone who didn't take him seriously and wouldn't try to please him just because of his status. Isn't that something new?
Zuo Junquan felt that Jun Mochen was a bit strange. When Sang Liwan was pestering him, he looked down on her, but now he was pestering Chen Yan again.
It's true that things change over time and there's always someone to overcome.
Jun Mochen didn't know whether he was like what Zuo Junquan said, and just liked to ignore him.
He had not told Chen Yan the whole truth just now. He came to the palace so early in the morning to gather some information and see if Sang Liwan was the one who orchestrated the assassination last night.
If it really is her...
It's really her...
Jun Mochen felt a little strange. He had clearly wanted Sang Liwan to never appear in front of him and bother him again, but now, when Sang Liwan was really in danger of his life, he felt a little reluctant.
What are you reluctant to give up?
He couldn't explain it clearly.
He originally wanted to go to the Queen's Palace to inquire about the situation, but because of the conflict between Chen Yan and the Queen just now, it might not be appropriate to go there now.
Jun Mochen stood there hesitant for a while, but decided to go to the emperor's bedroom first and ask for his hand in marriage with Chen Yan...
During the morning court session, Chen Yan stood beside the emperor. She looked at Jun Moyi who was standing at the front with a slightly dim look in her eyes.
The emperor probably didn't get enough rest last night, so he was not in good spirits and didn't plan to say anything important at the court meeting.
He glanced at Eunuch Li.
Eunuch Li immediately stepped forward, looked at the ministers below, and said, "If you have something to report, please proceed. If not, please dismiss the court."
Chen Yan frowned slightly.
In the morning, the empress was seen hurriedly coming out of the emperor's bedroom. She must have told the emperor the results of last night's interrogation. Why didn't the emperor attack Jun Moyi?
Chen Yan's heart was suddenly filled with uncertainty.
Where no one could see, she secretly raised her eyes and winked at her people.
Soon, a minister came forward and changed the topic to the assassination attempt last night.
Jun Moyi, who seemed to be indifferent to everything, was actually watching Chen Yan secretly. He saw that Chen Yan thought he had passed the message to someone secretly, but the person who stood up turned out to be a fourth-rank official.
Jun Moyi tapped his fingers on his knees lightly. He didn't expect that there were people from Chen Yan in the court.
I underestimated her.
I just don't know whether this minister turned against her temporarily or was hers from the beginning.
Jun Moyi lowered his brows and thought secretly in his heart.
When the emperor heard the fourth-rank official talking about what happened last night and remembered what the queen said to him this morning, he subconsciously thought that this was someone arranged by the queen.
In an instant, his dissatisfaction with the queen became more and more intense.
He knew that the queen wanted to kill Jun Moyi, but she was stretching her hands too far.
The emperor looked displeased, which made Chen Yan and the fourth-rank official feel a little puzzled. They didn't know who the emperor was angry with.
Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. Words spoken are like water spilled, and it is absolutely impossible to take them back.
The fourth-rank official steeled himself and said, "Your Majesty?"
The emperor did not want to talk about this matter anymore. It involved so many people that if the investigation continued, no one knew what else would be uncovered.
He didn't believe the assassin's confession.
This matter is most likely a setup, a setup that implicates him, Jun Moyi and Jun Mochen. The emperor has not yet figured out who the final beneficiary will be.
The assassination was ostensibly intended to kill him, but in reality the assassin used his mouth to reveal that the mastermind behind the scenes was Jun Mochen. In order to protect her son, the queen would put all the blame on Jun Mochen.
No matter which direction this matter leans towards, the real person behind the scenes will benefit.
Therefore, at this moment, the best thing the emperor can do is to pretend that this matter does not exist and lightly cover it up, so as not to let the real master succeed.
Thinking of this, the emperor said calmly, "The assassin bit his tongue and committed suicide before he was even taken to the prison."
lie!
This is obviously a lie!
Chen Yan widened her eyes in astonishment. She had never expected that the emperor would say such a thing.
She had arranged everything, including the assassin's resurrection, which was also part of the plan, just to make her words more convincing.
Moreover, the queen went to see the emperor early in the morning. How could it be possible that the assassin bit his tongue and committed suicide before reaching the Heavenly Prison?
Chen Yan's brain was working rapidly, and he was eager to know what had happened last night.
At this moment, there was no trace of the determination on her face.
In addition to Chen Yan, even the other ministers felt that this matter was a bit strange. It was obvious that such a big fuss had occurred last night, and the assassin had even staged a comeback from the dead, but in the end, he bit his tongue and committed suicide in less than an incense stick of time.
No matter how I hear this, it doesn't seem right.
There was a minister who had been in the officialdom for many years and had a vague idea of the hidden truth of this matter.
Since the emperor has already spoken, it is natural that whatever the emperor says is the truth. Why should they worry about it?
After figuring this out, he stood aside calmly and watched.
Jun Moyi looked at Chen Yan, whose expression changed drastically, with a hint of joy in his eyes.
After causing him so much trouble, he still wants to enjoy his victory in peace?
She was afraid she was dreaming.
Big Trouble Gu Huaizhi suddenly sneezed, "Tsk, why do I feel a little cold?"
In the court, the emperor dropped another bombshell, silencing the entire palace.
"I intend to release General Sang. What do you think, my dear ministers?"
