Yin Kanglin clenched his fist and remained silent for a long time before slamming his fist hard on the thick golden nanmu table. He said, "Alright, we'll do as Your Majesty wishes. I suppose Your Majesty has no other choice in the palace, which is why you made this proposal. Our Yin family will do everything in our power to fight for a chance of survival for Your Majesty and for ourselves!"
evening.
News spread that the old lady of the Yin family was seriously ill.
Doctors from Kyoto were brought into Minister Yin's residence in an endless stream. They all went in full of confidence and came out dejected. Some even tried to cheat but were beaten and carried out.
Early the next morning.
The Yin family then dispatched countless servants to search for precious medicinal herbs everywhere, and many others left the capital in batches to search for medicines in other cities.
These messages naturally reached the Empress's ears as well.
However, Empress Chen Ziyun's mind was mostly on Di Kanlong, and she listened to these trivial matters but put them aside and ignored them.
Chen Ziyun thought, anyway, Ninth Prince has already left.
The Yin family and Consort Yin are nothing more than a few clowns. To her and the Crown Prince, they are already dead men, and no matter how much they jump around, they pose no threat.
Let's leave these cannon fodder-like things to be dealt with after the crown prince ascends the throne!
Just then, after the new emperor ascended the throne, he also needed to "make an example of someone to scare others" and establish his authority.
The Yin family were just a bunch of ready-made "chickens".
Meanwhile, Shang Dongyang was also plotting how to bring all of Chen's soldiers into the city without anyone noticing, and had no time to care about the life or death of an old woman.
It was confirmed that the Empress and the Crown Prince had indeed not made any moves.
Yin Kanglin and Yin Zhaofeng also secretly breathed a huge sigh of relief!
This risky move has been successfully averted;
Hopefully, the Imperial Concubine's decision is the right one!
Shang Xiye and Ji Fengyao received the letter from the Yin family on the third day after leaving the capital.
The messenger was one of Yin Zhaofeng's personal servants, named A Xin.
Watching Ji Fengyao casually unfold the letter and hand it to Shang Xiye.
Ah Xin was very nervous: he had come carrying the hopes of the entire Yin family!
Please, my dear aunt, you bandit ancestor!
Could you please not be so casual and give it just a little bit of attention?
“Your Yin family, and Consort Yin, are indeed very bold.” Ji Fengyao’s phoenix eyes curved slightly as she glanced at A Xin with a smile. It was already autumn, but the boy was covered in sweat.
"But...but no..." In her nervousness, Ah Xin almost blurted out her true thoughts, but thankfully she realized her mistake in time and quickly tried to cover it up with flattery: "No, no, our Empress and the Lord said they believe that the Ninth Prince and Princess are loyal and virtuous people, certainly not traitors. They sent Ah Xin here simply because they firmly believe in justice and are willing to act for it."
Shang Xiye chuckled at his shameless nonsense.
Her once serene and beautiful face instantly blossomed with a myriad of colors.
Ashin was stunned for a moment:
My goodness, no one told him that the Ninth Prince could actually laugh;
This is so beautiful!
After putting away the letter that Ah Xin had sent, Shang Xiye's voice was warm, and his tone was no longer as low as before, but much lighter: "Since you have come for justice, you should be treated well. Go back and tell your master and the Imperial Concubine that I have received the letter and their good intentions."
“Yes, Ninth Prince,” Ah-Xin replied, still somewhat dazed.
After replying, he finally came to his senses and prepared to get up and leave.
"Wait a minute," Ji Fengyao quickly called out to him.
