Chapter 609: Reborn Girl vs. Book-Traveling Girl 30
In order to successfully imprison everyone in the Xuanping Marquis's Mansion, he mobilized almost all of his power in the court.
Although the number is not large, it is also the majority of the force he has built for himself over the years.
But now, all these people are exposed in front of my father.
He knew in his heart that no emperor would allow anyone to win over court officials and form cliques for personal gain while he was in power.
What's more, this matter was completely fabricated, and the "evidence" was sent back by the emperor, which was undoubtedly a warning to himself.
But now everything is over, and these people are completely useless.
The prince paced back and forth in the room like a trapped animal.
Occasionally, there would be a small whisper from his mouth. If you listen carefully, you can hear him say: "What should I do?"
It is really disappointing that the prince of such a big country can only keep saying this when encountering something.
However, the more anxious he became, the more confused his mind became, and he couldn't find a way out.
But the court meeting was almost coming to an end.
Since someone has impeached someone for treason and has made such a strong case, after a few rounds of debate, a search will definitely be conducted.
After a search of the Marquis Xuanping's Mansion, of course, no so-called "evidence of treason" was found. As a result, the accusations against the Marquis Xuanping's Mansion in the court became groundless and naturally could not stand up.
The emperor was of course well aware that those officials who had previously jumped happily and worked hard to impeach the Xuanping Marquis' Mansion were all the prince's men.
The emperor looked down on these people from the bottom of his heart.
There are few among them who have real talents and outstanding abilities, and most of them are fence-sitters.
Following the prince is just an attempt to gain the credit of being a dragon's follower for free.
But he, the emperor, was still sitting on the dragon throne, and these people started to rush to take sides. Which emperor could be happy?
Besides, the emperor now has an extra thirty years of life, so he has plenty of time to train a successor.
If the prince is not capable enough, then find someone else to train him.
If you can't find a suitable one among your sons, choose from your grandchildren.
For now, let the crown prince occupy the throne and serve as a whetstone for the future successor.
However, these useless officials in the court must be dealt with.
Those who were still useful were demoted.
Those who are in office but do nothing and have mediocre abilities will be dismissed immediately.
After the grand court meeting ended, only a few of the officials that the prince had tried so hard to win over were still standing in the court.
They are all people who change with the wind.
The prince had previously wanted to call several officials to discuss countermeasures. Lord Shi was demoted, and Lord Feng and Lord Li were dismissed from office.
After hearing the news, the prince felt dizzy and almost fainted.
But he held on and didn't dare to faint.
Because he was afraid that if he fainted, his servants would go and call the imperial physician, which would alarm the emperor.
If the emperor thought he was dissatisfied with the outcome, the situation would only get worse.
When people are anxious, they tend to come up with stupid ideas, and the prince is no exception.
The prince felt extremely insecure because the emperor had cut off most of his power this time.
Half a month passed in a flash, and the prince found that the emperor treated him the same as before, as if the incident had never happened.
So he plucked up his courage and boldly asked the emperor about his and Zheng Xingyao's wedding date.
The emperor looked at the prince in front of him and felt angry and amused at the same time. He was speechless for a moment.
Is this kid a fool?
The evidence has been given to him, which is clearly telling him that as his father, he has seen all the little actions he has made.
If there really were treasures in the Xuanping Marquis' Mansion, he would not only not think of presenting them to the emperor, but would also try to keep them for himself.
Do you really think that the profession of emperor is very broad-minded?
Knowing that there was a longevity elixir, he did not present it to the emperor but instead kept it for himself. Didn't he ever think that his emperor and father would hold a grudge against him?
To put it mildly, this is unfilial; to put it seriously, it is disrespectful to the emperor and father.
However, the emperor had already taken the longevity elixir, and although he was still a little unhappy, he was not that angry.
He said helplessly: "Ask the Imperial Astronomical Observatory to choose a date, and you pick a few suitable ones and bring them to me for review.
You should also go to the Ministry of Rites to see how the preparations are going, and we can work through it together."
After getting the emperor's approval, the prince rushed to various departments to prepare for his marriage.
In fact, the prince has misunderstood now.
He privately thought that Marquis Xuanping had a certain status in the emperor's heart, or that the emperor had taken away the treasures from the Marquis Xuanping's mansion, so he had a special affection for the Marquis Xuanping's mansion.
He thought that as the crown prince, if he could marry the girl from the Marquis of Xuanping's mansion, the Marquis of Xuanping would definitely become a solid force behind him.
Furthermore, there is a Yue family member who is favored by his father and may be able to say a few good words for him in front of the emperor.
The Crown Prince was busy as hell, and the news soon reached the Mansion of Marquis Xuanping and the Mansion of the Second Prince.
The second prince stayed in the capital because Zheng Yuejin was pregnant.
However, Zheng Yuejin could clearly feel that the second prince was not close to her.
Everything she needed in life would be prepared by the Second Prince as long as she opened her mouth.
But I just feel like something is missing.
She could only keep comforting herself in her heart, thinking that perhaps the Second Prince was just careless and didn't know how to care for his wife.
One day, Zheng Yuejin was walking in her yard and heard the servants talking about how the prince was personally busy arranging his marriage with Zheng Xingyao.
The four words "do it yourself" were like a sharp needle, instantly evoking Zheng Yuejin's hatred for everything he had suffered in his previous life, and his expression twisted for a moment.
I didn't expect the power of true love to be so strong. Even though the prince saw with his own eyes that bitch Zheng Xingyao being seen naked by others, he was still wholeheartedly good to this bitch, just like in his previous life.
As long as they were happy, she felt like her heart was burning with fire and was extremely unhappy.
Zheng Yuejin returned to the room and immediately called her dowry maid and whispered some instructions in her ear.
After hearing this, the maid's face showed a look of horror, but she knew in her heart that the lives of her family were in Zheng Yuejin's hands, and she dared not disobey in the slightest.
After receiving the instructions, he immediately went out to do the work.
At the Marquis Xuanping's Mansion, Zheng Xingyao was with the Marquis's wife, helping her take care of household affairs.
Zheng Xingyao suddenly received the news that the prince was planning to marry her and thought she had misheard.
"Mother, this is probably just a rumor. When my daughter was with the prince before, I clearly felt that he didn't want to marry her. Why are there such rumors now?"
After a brief pause, Zheng Xingyao frowned and speculated, "Mom, could it be Zheng Yuejin's doing? She always wants to see her daughter make a fool of herself."
