This was no difficult task, and Xie Tingzhou agreed.
After enjoying the roast chicken and warm wine, the old princess continued, "The former director of the Imperial Observatory, Wu Han, is hidden in Qingzhou. He is the biological father of Kang Le's two children."
"For years he's been cultivating power for Kang Le in the south. The man who impersonated the crown prince and attempted to assassinate the emperor is also by his side. If you send someone to arrest him now, it's still not too late."
She assumed that Tse Ting-chou would take immediate action.
But then Xie Tingzhou asked, "Where did you hide the evidence you have?"
The old princess outwardly defended the late emperor's faction, but secretly collected evidence of their crimes to control them.
Xie Tingzhou didn't believe that the old princess would support Kang Le without having any dirt on him.
The old princess closed her eyes.
She didn't want to reveal all her cards, but she couldn't withstand Xie Tingzhou and Ye Zhen's antics.
In the end, everything was gradually revealed by the two of them, and her hidden power and wealth also fell into Xie Tingzhou's hands.
"His Majesty is incompetent and foolish. Although the Empress is the Crown Prince's mother, Prince Yun and Prince Ning are also her sons. She and the Emperor are deeply in love, so it will be difficult for the Crown Prince to ascend the throne."
The old princess made a last-ditch effort, saying, "I am willing to lend the Crown Prince a hand, but I only ask for a dignified death."
Xie Tingzhou put his mask back on. "I appreciate the Grand Princess's kindness. I will never forget you when I need you to step forward."
The old princess thought she still had a chance to turn things around, but before she could even rejoice, the familiar pain returned, and she suffered another stroke.
Xie Tingzhou had no intention of sending her back to the palace, nor did he intend to let her die right now.
The thought of having to endure hunger and cold made the old princess's eyes bulge with hatred.
Ye Zhen carried the person back to the tattered bed and laughed, "After thinking it over, I still have to write those stories about you. I can earn quite a bit of money from them, and that's your last bit of value."
To maintain imperial dignity, the emperor did not want to expose Emperor Renzhao, so he concealed the matter of Emperor Renzhao and did not mention it.
The old princess also used an alias, so that even if the emperor saw the storybook, he wouldn't be able to identify with it.
Xie Tingzhou reassured her, "Zhen'er, don't worry, I will never let anyone find out about you."
Although Ye Zhen is not short of money right now, Xie Tingzhou is willing to make her happy if she wants to do it.
A woman like the old princess doesn't deserve to die with dignity.
"Uh...uh..."
The old princess was furious, but she couldn't utter a single curse. She only regretted not discovering sooner that Xie Tingzhou was the crown prince and not killing Ye Zhen in time.
The sick tiger, now that its teeth have been pulled, can no longer cause any trouble. As Ye Zhen walked out of the general store, he couldn't help but yawn.
After tossing and turning for half the night, it was already dawn.
Xie Tingzhou squatted down. "Get on, I'll carry you."
Ye Zhen's eyes were blurry with tears; she was really sleepy, so she didn't stand on ceremony and leaned on his shoulder.
Xie Tingzhou carried his beloved girl on his back and used his light-footed skills to enter Menghua Pavilion, only to find the Marquis Zhongyong, whose head was covered in swollen bumps, standing at the back window glaring at the two of them.
