King Jiangnan's expression was really ugly at this moment.
The person he had been sleeping with for twenty years had actually deceived him from the very beginning.
After all, he was the only king of a different surname in the Kingdom of Dongqi. No matter his identity, status, or even his glorious military exploits in the past, any noble lady marrying him would be considered marrying a high-class woman.
However, he was actually deceived by a woman who had a child with another man before they got married!
He always remembered that on their wedding night, the princess was a virgin...
However, the King of Jiangnan was not an ignorant person, so it was not difficult for him to forge something.
"Your Highness, the little princess is clearly dissatisfied with me, so she made up this lie to deceive you, just to drive us apart!"
The princess came to her senses at this time, raised her hand to grab the sleeve of King Jiangnan, and tears fell from her face.
Although she is already 42 years old, she has taken good care of herself over the years and looks no more than 30 years old, without any sign of aging.
Crying at this time is quite charming.
When King Jiangnan saw her looking at him with red eyes and tears falling down, his heart softened.
Seeing this, Zhao Yue immediately frowned.
Concubine Zhao rolled her eyes in disbelief.
Xiao Shuangbao was also speechless.
It was the first time she had seen someone like the princess.
Uh, no, that's not right. Her deceased aunt was also very good at confusing right and wrong.
Since Xiao Shuangbao knew the princess's life story, he naturally knew the relationship between the princess and her aunt.
"If you want to prove whether what I said is true or not, it's actually very simple. Although you have killed your cousin and other people who knew about it, your son is still alive and well."
At this moment, Xiao Shuangbao looked at the princess with a pair of black and round eyes, which were as clear as seeing through fire, and were dotted with bright starlight.
The princess was looked at like this by her, and she couldn't help but reveal a bit of guilt.
"You don't want me to tell you where your son is now, do you?"
Xiao Shuangbao continued to speak, pressing forward step by step.
The princess's expression changed slightly, and her hands holding the handkerchief suddenly tightened.
This change in her was also noticed by King Jiangnan.
How could the King of Jiangnan not know that what Xiao Shuangbao said was true?
"Father, the Emperor is still waiting for me to return and report the outcome of the matter."
At this time, Zhao Yue, who was standing by, spoke again, "When my son came, the emperor said, 'If you can't even clean your own house, how can you clean up the world?'"
When King Jiangnan heard this, his expression suddenly became solemn.
"I see."
He immediately stopped hesitating and stopped looking at the princess's pitiful face. He glanced at his second son, Zhao Huan, who was lying on the ground and wailing softly. He immediately ordered, "Come here, take this little maid away and give her proper treatment. Then, tie up Zhao Huan and send him to the government office!"
"Your Highness! You can't do this! Huan'er is your biological son!"
When the princess heard this, she immediately said in disbelief.
"It is precisely because he is my biological son that I cannot indulge him any longer!"
However, the attitude of the King of Jiangnan was unprecedentedly resolute. He looked at the princess with a cold gaze and continued to order, "Take the princess away and confine her to the courtyard. Without my order, she is not allowed to step out of the courtyard!"
"Your Majesty!"
The princess was now even more incredulous. "You actually trust an outsider and not me? We've been husband and wife for twenty years!"
"You still know that we have been husband and wife for twenty years? I thought you didn't know at all!"
The King of Jiangnan sneered and was obviously really angry.
After he finished speaking, he said no more, waved his sleeves, and had the princess taken away.
"Your Highness! You can't treat me like this! I gave birth to your children and took care of the household! How could you treat me like this!"
The princess cried miserably as she was taken away, and gradually her voice could no longer be heard.
"Since the King of Jiangnan has already made the punishment, this princess will no longer interfere in this matter. However, there are many female ghosts in this courtyard. This princess wants to take them in. You can do as you please."
After Xiao Shuangbao finished speaking, he began to catch ghosts with full concentration.
King Jiangnan and the others did not leave immediately, but stood there with Jing Gan and Jing Yuan, watching the talismans flying in Xiao Shuangbao's hands.
Of course they couldn't see the ghosts.
But this scene allowed them to intuitively feel how powerful Xiao Shuangbao was.
What flew out of Xiao Shuangbao's hand was a spirit-controlling talisman.
A piece of talisman paper can control a ghost, and a dark light will suddenly appear.
Xiao Shuangbao used more than a dozen spirit-controlling talismans before he cleared out the female ghost in the yard.
Suddenly, everyone standing here felt the cold and gloomy atmosphere disappear in an instant.
Originally, King Jiangnan thought that only this courtyard was gloomy.
But only now did I understand that it was because of the yin energy of a female ghost.
When he thought of his second son staying with these female ghosts all day long, he couldn't help but frown.
"Little Princess, I have a question."
At this time, King Jiangnan suddenly asked.
"Your Majesty, please speak."
Little Shuangbao glanced at him with a hint of curiosity in his eyes. Now he was less majestic than before when facing the princess, and showed some of the innocence of a child.
"I've heard that evil spirits harm people. Why are there so many female ghosts in Huan'er's courtyard, but he has never been harmed by them?"
King Jiangnan asked doubtfully.
