Chapter 521 [Thought I had escaped successfully]
"Grandma really didn't tell you."
Xin Ningyu looked at the Empress Dowager at this moment and smiled very kindly: "In fact, my mother, Yang Wanyi, is the flesh and blood of the late Emperor and the Empress Dowager."
She said with some sarcasm: "We are all family."
"How else do you think we were able to successfully plant so many spies into the palace? It was all thanks to Grandmother."
Xin Ningyu's words successfully made the suspicious Emperor Qingning suspicious of his biological mother, Empress Dowager Yu.
"Mother, why don't you tell me the true identity of the Xin family?"
Emperor Qingning dragged his frail body, his wounds bleeding profusely from anger. "Are you helping them place spies around me?"
"What are your intentions? Are you planning to emulate the Empress and manipulate government affairs from behind the scenes?"
Empress Dowager Yu was heartbroken and angry at the speculation of her beloved son: "How could I possibly help them?"
"You've been kind and gentle since childhood, always advocating brotherly love and respect. If I told you that Xin Chong married your own sister, would you still be able to do it?"
"You've already become indecisive about Xin Chong's family because of Concubine Ying. If you knew that Xin Chong is your brother-in-law, wouldn't you soften your heart and let the Xin family go?"
These words were actually excuses. The Queen Mother understood her son's suspicious nature. If she told Emperor Qingning about this, he would definitely suspect that she had other plans, just like he was doing now.
No matter what she does, it will be wrong because the problem lies with her son's personality and there is no solution.
The Queen Mother thought that the Xin family was exiled far away and nothing would happen again, so these secrets were buried, but she didn't expect that they would come back again.
The Empress Dowager was very regretful at this time. She should have made things clear with Emperor Qingning early on instead of making the decision on her own. She had no way of expressing her pain.
But these people were so evil that they even tried to alienate the mother and son.
"Queen Dowager, please don't deny it now. After all, it was you and the Emperor who proposed sending Miaojiang to kill the Xin family on the way to exile."
Hou Xiaoxiao directly and logically put the blame on the Queen Mother: "Thank you very much for letting me send them over to escort the Xin family."
Emperor Qingning looked at the empress dowager, his eyes already cold.
The Queen Mother was extremely anxious: "You are my son, how could I possibly harm you?"
The emperor and the empress dowager started to fight each other, and Jiang Lili and others watched coldly, treating it as a joke.
At this moment, Panda suddenly sent a group message in the group.
@Panda (King of Beasts, Giant Panda): My little mouse brother overheard intelligence that Jiang Wanyue has already planned to rescue Emperor Qingning and escape. She will lead him out through the secret passage in Changchun Garden, then blow up Changchun Garden, killing all of you.
[@Panda: When the Emperor and the Empress Dowager escape later, please do not try to stop them. Leave Changchun Garden.]
@Master Liao (remotely enjoying the melon): Huh? So just let them get away like that?
@Wen Qiao (Navy Governor): Of course not. Letting them escape was part of our plan. We wanted to catch a big fish behind them.
@周居善: Half a month ago, I was cleaning Emperor Qingning's desk and found a drawing that looked very much like a musket design. It must have been given to him by someone else. I saw that the drawing was very detailed, and the units were centimeters and millimeters.
After much investigation, I discovered that he brought these blueprints back from visiting Jiang Zhoulin.
@Master Liao: This guy is from our class! However, the names of you, monitor and vice-monitor, are the same as they were before you time-traveled. Even if you can't remember your classmates' names, it's not like everyone can't remember them, right? Why didn't he come and meet up with you guys?
@Jiang Lili: Two theories: Either he's lost his memory and forgotten us classmates, but still remembers the knowledge he learned in modern times, hoping to make a name for himself in ancient times, so he submits his name to the emperor; or he's the bus driver. But there's one thing they all have in common: no matter which identity he plays, they're all connected to the Jiang family.
Now we just have to wait and see and wait for the big fish to take the bait.
Just as the emperor and the empress dowager were arguing, a noise suddenly came from under the dragon throne. Everyone looked at each other, stood up and ran away.
Jiang Lili and others pulled the Xin family out of the banquet hall together. The last scene they saw was the emperor and the empress dowager jumping out of the secret passage under the dragon throne.
There was a loud bang in Changchun Garden, and the entire banquet hall was reduced to ruins.
The entrance to the secret passage was temporarily blocked by ruins and could not be entered.
A group of people stood in front of the ruins of Changchun Garden. The full moon of the Mid-Autumn Night shone on them above their heads, and the silver moonlight outlined their figures. Everyone stood in different postures and had different expressions on their faces.
Zhou Jushan had already collected the abdication edict and confession from Emperor Qingning, and retired, clocking in, feeling relaxed: "I'm leaving first. I'm going to drink the elixir of life!"
Hou Xiaoxiao looked at the destroyed Changchun Garden and sighed, "I won't be able to take kickbacks from the various projects in the palace anymore~"
Xue Wei touched his chin and said, "The palace is so big, where should I set up my Ministry of Justice office?"
Xin Yingshu took out the phoenix seal that the emperor had given her to take charge of the affairs of the harem from her sleeve and threw it into the ruins of Changchun Garden.
From then on, there were no more ranks of concubines, and no more palace walls to frame the square sky. Family and friends were all around and could be seen at any time.
She turned around, just like the little sister who followed Xin Chong and Yang Wanyi back then, with a look of demure contentment on her face. "Brother, sister-in-law, Xin Cheng, Fulan, I've already arranged the rooms. Let's get some rest today, and then we can get together at breakfast tomorrow morning to chat."
Xin Chong and Yang Wanyi wore relieved smiles on their faces, "Okay, let's go."
"Auntie, how could you forget me!"
When Xin Ningyu saw that her aunt didn't call her, she pouted angrily.
Xin Yingshu laughed: "Why are you still acting like a child? Don't you care about your Khan?"
Yan Chaoyue, the cowardly son-in-law, quickly waved his hands and said, "It's okay with me. It's okay with me. I can even keep watch for you all night."
This remark made everyone burst into laughter.
Jiang Lili was held in Xin Che's arms, covering her ears, and witnessed Changchun Garden collapse in an instant without blinking.
"Are you sleepy? Let's go to my aunt's palace and take a nap. It's safe there."
Xin Che fastened the belt of Jiang Lili's cloak, cupped her cheek and said, "I'll take care of the rest."
Jiang Lili hugged his waist reluctantly and yawned: "I'm sleepy, carry me on your back."
This waist feels firm and strong every time I hold it in my arms, and it feels great.
Being entangled by Jiang Lili like a koala in front of so many people, Xin Che's ears suddenly turned red. "Okay, okay, let go first, I'll carry you right away."
Hou Xiaoxiao jokingly said, "That's the good thing about being young. They're very devoted to their relationships."
He looked so excited that he almost cracked some melon seeds on the side.
Jiang Lili made a face at her: "Come on, you're a rich woman now, go find some gigolos and stop teasing me here!"
Everyone left Changchun Garden chatting and laughing.
On the other side, Emperor Qingning and the Empress Dowager, who were being led away by Jiang Wanyue, were terrified, fearing that someone would catch up with them.
Emperor Qingning was almost carried away by the two servants brought by Jiang Wanyue. He felt a sense of unreality as if he had survived a disaster.
The Queen Mother was handcuffed, so she escaped with the chair, looking very embarrassed.
