Chapter Ninety-Five
Thinking of this, Zhu Jingchen sighed. Even if he admitted his mistake today, Consort Jing could never go back to the way things were before.
Her child with Consort Jing would never return.
Thinking of Consort Jing, Zhu Jingchen felt a pang of sadness. He had visited Consort Jing and found her truly bewildered.
Back then, because Consort Jing plotted to harm the imperial heir, not only was Consort Jing banished to the Cold Palace, but her elder brother, Song Zeyan, was also sent away to serve as a minor prefect in Wuzhou.
Now, in the capital, Consort Jing is also isolated and helpless.
Thinking of this, Zhu Jingchen sighed.
He planned to summon Song Zeyan back to the capital to make up for the years he had wronged Consort Jing.
As for Consort Jing, she can simply be kept in the palace.
It's just Liu Wan!
"Your Majesty, I have discovered that the reason Consort Liu entered the palace was because Prince An married Zhou Shi instead of her, and wanted to deal with Zhou Shi more easily."
The guard's words deepened Zhu Jingchen's sense of guilt.
What a tender expression of affection!
Are you trying to break up someone's family?
"Please invite Prince An to the palace!" Zhu Jingchen sighed. Prince An was one of his trusted ministers.
He wronged Prince An in this matter and should give Prince An an explanation. Prince An should also decide how to deal with the culprit.
"Your Majesty, Prince An is probably still busy right now." The guard thought to himself, recalling how he had just encountered Prince An leading his men to raid the Liu family's residence while he was investigating the matter.
"What did Prince An go about?" Zhu Jingchen wondered with suspicion, after all, he didn't seem to have assigned any work to Prince An.
"Your Majesty, Prince An has led men to investigate the Liu family." After the guard finished speaking, he cautiously glanced at Zhu Jingchen.
Zhu Jingchen was stunned; he hadn't expected it to be like this.
To raid the Liu family's residence?
It seems that Prince An also knows something.
"Fine, let him go!" Zhu Jingchen comforted himself, thinking that Xu Heming was a sensible person, and if the Liu family hadn't done anything wrong, there was nothing he could do to them.
The daughter of the Liu family killed his princess, so it's not unreasonable to let him vent his anger.
Xu Heming led his men and stormed into the Liu family's residence.
Liu Zongcheng frowned as he watched Prince An storm into the Liu family residence in a rage.
"Your Highness Prince An, I wonder if there's anything I can do for you to grace my humble abode today?" Liu Zongcheng asked Xu Heming with a smile.
He thought to himself, "I've heard that the person who will take over his vacancy is none other than Prince An's future father-in-law."
The Prince of An's visit shouldn't be because he wants to arrest me, right?
Thinking that if Prince An arrested him today, an imperial censor would impeach Prince An tomorrow, Liu Zongcheng straightened his back even more.
Although he was no longer an official in the court, at least his daughter was still the emperor's favorite concubine.
With this in mind, Liu Zongcheng was no longer worried.
Although Prince An wields great power, can it ever surpass that of the Emperor?
Since her daughter was favored by the Emperor, no matter what Prince An did to her today, she could have her wife go to her daughter and cry to her tomorrow, and the Emperor would surely take charge for them.
Thinking of this, Liu Zongcheng's initial tension disappeared.
He wasn't worried about Prince An at all; he figured even if Prince An had ten times the courage, he wouldn't dare to make things difficult for him.
"Your Highness Prince An, what are you doing?" When Lady Lou saw Prince An arrive, she felt a little uneasy, after all, she knew about what her daughter had done.
He thought to himself, "Could it be that I've been exposed?"
However, it also seemed impossible. After all, if this matter were really exposed, it would never be so calm.
