The mountain and tomb collapsed and the emperor was gone.
After the bell rang in the imperial city, Xiao Bijue came out with a group of ministers and the new emperor.
No one expected that the one who succeeded to the throne was the sixth prince, whose biological mother was just a palace maid, yet he could ascend to the throne.
The news quickly reached the ears of the ministers. The late emperor was seriously ill, and only Xiao Bijue and the Sixth Prince were by his side. Finally, the Sixth Prince let out a wail and called in all the waiting ministers.
Afterwards, Xiao Bijue took the emperor's handwritten edict, and the sixth prince succeeded to the throne legitimately.
The fifth and seventh princes who plotted treason were sentenced to death. When the news came out, Princess Kangning was in a panic. If even her own brothers could be sentenced to death, then her mother was just the aunt of the new emperor, and she probably couldn't escape it.
More importantly, she knew that Xiao Bijue's wife was Chen Miaoyi, and that Xiao Bijue would definitely settle the score with her later if he supported the new emperor to ascend the throne.
She can't just end up like this!
Princess Kangning threw the divorce letter to An Changrui. Although An Changrui's punishment has not yet come, all the clan members have been dealt with. The next step is to clean up the court officials.
"You want to divorce me?"
An Changrui was already anxiously waiting for news, and now Princess Kangning actually wanted to divorce him, which meant she knew something.
He was afraid that he would be held accountable this time, and An Changrui could not allow others to take advantage of him and abandon him.
He is the only one who can be unfaithful.
"Yes, I am doing this for your own good. The Emperor can even kill his own brothers, let alone a princess like me.
If we divorce now, you won't be involved, and the emperor will also spare me because I'm pregnant with your child, maybe?"
Princess Kangning just wanted to escape quickly. She had almost packed up her things. She just wanted to go back to the princess's mansion and not come out unless the emperor wanted to kill her entire family.
Otherwise, even if she was implicated, she could find a reason to beg for mercy.
An Changrui sneered. "It's a nice thing to say, for his own good?" He knew exactly what kind of person Princess Kangning was.
"You and I were once husband and wife, if divorce can save you, then let's divorce.
If anything happens, just say you knew nothing about it and that I did it all.”
He pretended to be affectionate and pretended to consider Princess Corning even at the critical moment of life and death, because he knew her too well.
Sure enough, Princess Kangning hesitated. She was not completely without feelings for An Changrui.
"You're on your own. I advise you to ask Madam Xiao for help. Madam Xiao is your ex-wife Chen Miaoyi!"
"What did you say?" An Changrui grabbed Princess Kangning's arm. No wonder she wanted to escape so quickly.
"Why didn't you say so earlier?"
There was a fierce look in his eyes, and the confusion in his heart became clear. No wonder all his attempts to please Xiao Bijue were useless, and no wonder the Seventh Prince failed.
It’s because Xiao Bijue was originally on Chen Miaoyi’s side.
Xiao Bijue is definitely not a good person who raises children for others, so those two children are his?
An Changrui felt that he had suffered an unprecedented insult. The new emperor was supported by Xiao Bijue, and he would definitely not have a good ending in the future.
"Do you think Chen Miaoyi will let you go like this?
If it weren't for you, how could I have divorced her? If it weren't for you, how could I have abandoned my first wife?
He viciously blamed all the responsibility on Princess Kangning, completely forgetting how he had managed to marry the princess in the first place.
"Do you think I don't know whose baby is in your belly?"
Princess Corning was struck by lightning. She herself was not sure who it belonged to. How could you know?
"Your two lovers are already under my control. I will not keep this evil child."
An Changrui pinched her neck, ignoring her fear and struggle, and gradually increased the strength in his hands.
"You dare to kill me? You are guilty of murdering a royal relative, and you cannot escape the death penalty!" Princess Kangning threatened with all her might. No matter what, she still had the identity of a princess.
An Changrui let go of her and slammed her against the wall. "I want to kill you? You just died in childbirth, two lives lost. I wonder if the new emperor will spare me for the loss of my wife and son."
An Changrui smiled extremely evilly, knocked Princess Kangning unconscious with one blow, and ordered his confidant to get a bowl of medicine to induce labor.
Princess Corning must die, but not at his hands. This is the price she pays for betraying him.
And her death could also provide him with a way to survive, killing two birds with one stone.
"Someone, go call the midwife, the princess is about to give birth." An Changrui's eyes were sinister and he looked a little crazy.
After being fed the labor-inducing drug, Princess Kangning woke up in pain. The immense pain in her body left her with no energy to think about anything else. She knew she was about to give birth, and it must have been An Changrui's doing.
She didn't know any of the midwives in the room, and she couldn't figure out how An Changrui knew about the baby in her belly.
"Get out! Let my people in!"
She propped herself up and knocked over the ornaments beside her. The midwives came forward and held her down tacitly.
"Princess, childbirth is a bit painful, so it's better to save your energy."
Feeling powerless and in agony, she shouted at her guards at the top of her lungs, but no one came.
She was afraid that she would die here. She didn't expect that her parents were still alive, but she was going to die. She was unwilling to accept this!
"The Jinyiwei are here!" the doorman shouted.
"Your Majesty has issued an oral order! Princess Kangning aided and abetted the tyrant. She was deceived by the treacherous man and failed to judge his true self. Considering her status as a relative of the royal family, I will grant her leniency and immediately divorce her husband. She will be taken back to Princess Yuyang's residence to reflect on her mistakes!"
Xiao Bijue arrived at the right time. The An Mansion had been under his control for a long time, and he was just waiting for An Changrui to kill his wife with his own hands.
Chen Miaoyi also came with Xiao Bijue. An Changrui's eyes were red, and he knew that he was really finished this time.
When he saw Chen Miaoyi again, he felt mixed emotions. This was his first wife!
"You, you two have been hooking up for a long time, right?" he asked, pointing at the two of them.
"People with dirty hearts see everything as dirty. When you cling to the powerful, you assume everyone thinks the same way you do."
Chen Miaoyi stood in front of him. This unshaven, unkempt man looked nothing like the proud third place winner of the imperial examination in the past.
"Hahahaha, those two children are his too, right?
Just one month after the divorce, you're already pregnant with someone else's child? Adulterer! "
When a man is about to die, he will go crazy if he doesn't go crazy. He pointed at the two of them and cursed them madly. Chen Miaoyi walked up and slapped them several times.
"I beat you for being unkind and unjust, for abandoning your first wife, you idiot!"
"I strike you for having no regard for your king and father, and for daring to rebel!"
The original owner's fate emerged in his mind. He died due to rumors, and the rumor was spread by An Changrui himself.
"Hahaha, Chen Miaoyi, how dare you hit me!
Xiao Bijue, you are the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, but you can only marry a woman that I don’t want!
You are only fit to pick up trash!"
Looking at his crazy look, he no longer has any desire to live.
