Chapter 268 Panic! The Xuan King and his wife panicked!



The current situation no longer allows them to do nothing; otherwise, they will be investigated sooner or later.

Ji Mingwei glanced at the sky outside and said, "Today, Yun Zhuo only has four days left. If Ye Qingxue cannot find out the truth within these four days, Yun Zhuo will surely die."

Yun Xun said, "The problem is, how do we get through these four days? Ye Qingxue won't just stand by and watch Yun Zhuo be executed; she will definitely take action."

"In just three days, she has brought about tremendous changes. We can't just sit and wait."

Yun Xun's tone revealed urgency.

Ji Mingwei was just as anxious.

Ye Qingxue is indeed a formidable opponent.

Her eyes darkened, and she said, "Then let Ye Qingxue and Father Emperor be too busy to deal with Yun Zhuo's case for these four days."

Yun Xun stared at her intently.

Ji Mingwei slowly sat down on the edge of the bed, already having a plan in mind, and she told Yun Xun about it without reservation.

Yun Xun discussed it with her and felt that the plan was feasible, so they immediately decided on a countermeasure.

Ji Mingwei opened the door, looked at Ling Ya, and asked him to quietly go out for a while. Ling Ya bowed and withdrew again.

About an hour later, Yan Shizheng quietly arrived at the Xuan Prince's Mansion and entered Yun Xun's room.

Yan Shizheng had already heard about the Ninth Prince and Yun Zhuo being poisoned.

They also knew that Ye Qingxue had knelt before the emperor, requesting a retrial of the case.

He was also very flustered.

Upon seeing Yun Xun and Ji Mingwei, he expressed his inner turmoil and said:

“Prince Xuan and Princess should make plans sooner rather than later. We finally managed to get Prince Jing sentenced to death. We can’t let him get away with it, or all our efforts will be in vain.”

Ji Mingwei smiled and said, "The reason why the Prince and I invited Lord Yan to our door is to discuss this matter. Lord Yan is the person the Prince and I trust the most, and only Lord Yan can help us with this matter."

Yan Shizheng noticed that he was the only subject in the room, and the thought that "I am the only person that the Prince and Princess Xuan trust" immediately arose in his mind, which made him very satisfied.

You should know that he has been following Prince Xuan for many years.

He watched as Prince Xuan, once an unloved and overlooked seventh prince, was bestowed the title of Prince Xuan and finally became a prince with the ability to seize the throne. He was extremely satisfied.

"What can I do now? Please tell me, Your Highness!" Yan Shizheng said.

Ji Mingwei said, "I have discussed this with the Prince. The best way to stop Ye Qingxue from overturning Yun Zhuo's case is to create more trouble for them. With more trouble, they will not have time to overturn Yun Zhuo's case. Even if they want to, Father will not allow it."

Ji Mingwei spoke slowly and deliberately, but every word was like a shard of ice, as if to freeze one's mind.

Yan Shizheng didn't feel cold; he only felt boundless excitement.

Ji Mingwei said, "The entire Lan family is currently in prison, and Ye Qingxue knows very well that the Lan family was imprisoned because of her and Ye Cunsi. Now that we are targeting the Lan family, Ye Qingxue naturally cannot take care of Yun Zhuo."

Yan Shizheng said, "After being subjected to torture, not a single member of the Lan family yielded, not even their daughter, Lan Yi. The Lan family are all tough nuts to crack, and even the Emperor can't do anything about them now."

Ji Mingwei sneered: "General Lan insulted Princess Huaiming to death, he will definitely be beheaded. If Father Emperor is furious, it is not impossible that the entire Lan family will be executed."

"Lord Yan only needs to find the collateral branches of the Lan family or their servants and tell them that as long as they confess and testify against General Lan together, we can plead with the Emperor to kill only General Lan and let the rest of them live."

“Even if Father exiles them, we can ask him to exile them to the south. It’s warm there and they won’t freeze to death. It’s much better than the harsh and desolate north. Lord Yan can also promise them that he will take good care of them during their exile.”

Yan Shizheng's eyes lit up; this was indeed a good idea.

What's the use if the servants and their relatives testify against him, even if General Lan himself denies it?

Ji Mingwei said, "Since there are no witnesses to prove that General Lan insulted Princess Huaiming to death, then we will create a witness for him. This shouldn't be difficult for Lord Yan, right?"

Yan Shizheng's eyes lit up again: "It's not difficult, Your Majesty knows what to do!"

Ji Mingwei walked up to Yan Shizheng and handed him a small porcelain bottle.

Yan Shizheng asked, "What is this?"

Ji Mingwei replied, "This is poison. After Lord Yan persuaded the servants and collateral relatives of the Lan family, he secretly had someone give this poison to General Lan and his wife and children, and then said that they had committed suicide out of fear of punishment."

“The Lan family and the Prince Jing’s mansion are one. I will have people incite the people to request that Yun Zhuo be executed quickly as well. The Emperor cannot ignore the people’s anger. Ye Qingxue will have no chance to turn things around.”

Yan Shizheng took the medicine bottle and said sincerely, "Your Highness has a brilliant plan!"
