LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 64 Killing the Princess Regent
The eldest princess of Pingyao had just left Shou'an Palace when another group of people came in front of her. The leader was Eunuch Zhou, who was beside the emperor.
It seems like everyone is waiting for her today
"Your Highness, the eldest princess." Eunuch Zhou saluted her respectfully, with a very humble attitude, "Your Majesty, please go to Chonghua Palace and discuss important matters with your highness, the eldest princess."
The eldest princess of Pingyao looked at him with a half-smile but not a smile: "It's not easy for Eunuch Zhou to stop here specifically. Does the emperor have to see me today?"
Zhou Fang apologized and said, "I'm just a messenger. Please don't embarrass me."
"I won't embarrass you. If I want to embarrass you, I will embarrass the person who ordered you." Princess Pingyao said coldly, "Let's go."
Zhou Fang's face changed slightly, he lowered his head and did not dare to speak. He led Princess Pingyao all the way to the Zhonghua Palace.
Ji Jin was sitting in front of the window reading as usual. The noble appearance of the young man looked gentle and harmless, which made people fond of him.
But it just looks harmless.
She randomly found a place to sit closer to him: "What does the emperor want to discuss with me?"
Ji Jin's eyes darkened. Although he was used to the imperial sister's rudeness, probably because he had recently met a regent princess who also had no rules, he always felt that his imperial majesty seemed to have disappeared.
Everyone ignored him.
What is the difference between him as an emperor and a puppet?
Ji Jin closed her eyes gently, suppressed the anger in her heart, closed the book in her hand and put it aside. Her every move was calm and elegant: "Sister Huang, just went to the Ministry of War?"
Princess Pingyao said: "The Emperor is well-informed."
"Why are you going to the Ministry of War?"
"It's not just the Ministry of War. I might also go to the Ministry of Husbandry tomorrow, and the Ministry of Rites the day after tomorrow." Princess Pingyao said calmly, "There is no special purpose. I just want to see if these officials are doing their work seriously, if they are forming cliques for personal gain, and if there are any Is there any corruption or bribery involved in giving or receiving privately?”
As she spoke, she twitched the corners of her lips imperceptibly: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I am a woman and have no interest in your throne."
Ji Jin was silent for a while: "I came here to discuss some matters with Sister Huang."
"What's the matter?"
"What do you think of the Princess Regent?"
Princess Pingyao raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at him thoughtfully: "Your Majesty, please don't say that you have a crush on your aunt."
Ji Jin said calmly: "It's nothing."
"What happens to the Princess Regent has nothing to do with me." Princess Pingyao said, "I don't care.
"I and the imperial sister are biological siblings."
"Want to be moved with emotion?" Princess Pingyao raised an indifferent arc, "The emperor may have forgotten how my mother-in-law died. The emperor's biological sister is Princess Jiahe, not me. There is no need to get close to me. ”
"If I tell the emperor that General Fengyang is still alive, I don't know what the emperor will do."
After the words fell, the air seemed to become quiet.
The eldest princess of Pingyao narrowed her eyes and stared at Ji Jin: "What did you say?"
"General Fengyang is still alive." Ji Jin said calmly, "But I am the only one who knows where he is."
The princess of Pingyao felt huge waves in her heart, but she tried her best to restrain her emotions on her face and said coldly: "The emperor is joking."
"I never joke." Ji Jin said calmly, "As long as the emperor promises me something, I can let the emperor meet General Fengyang."
Princess Pingyao was silent for a moment: "What's the matter?"
Ji Jin turned her head and looked out the window, her voice as calm as if she was saying something insignificant: "Kill the Princess Regent."
Princess Pingyao's eyes were attentive: "Isn't the Emperor's request a bit unreasonable?"
"How do you say this?"
"Give me a reason to kill her."
Ji Jin said calmly: "I want someone to die. Do I need a reason?"
"The person you want to die is the regent's wife." The eldest princess of Pingyao exposed his fantasy, "Although the emperor is the emperor, he has not yet taken charge of the government. He should not be able to do this: 'if the king wants his minister to die, he must die' One thing, and even if the emperor takes charge in the future, has the emperor ever thought about the consequences of killing the regent? "
Ji Jin was silent for a moment, "What consequences do you think the emperor will have?"
"Do you think the Regent will let it go?"
"Isn't it just a woman?" Ji Jin disagreed, "Is it possible that he would kill the king for a woman?"
"Who knows?" Princess Pingyao said calmly, "Anyway, I won't take this risk for you."
Ji Jin frowned: "General Fengyang doesn't want to see you?"
"Although I did like him before, after that period of time, I still feel that hugging him is the happiest thing." Princess Pingyao smiled faintly, "But I still can't help but want to know what the emperor is like. Did you let him survive? Or have you been conspiring against me all these years?"
Ji Jin's expression darkened: "Sister Huang."
"If he had appeared two years earlier, I might have really agreed to the conditions proposed by the emperor." The eldest princess of Pingyao stood up and arranged her clothes slowly, "Now that I have started a new life, the chief minister in the eldest princess's mansion They are all beautiful and docile, and the concubine of the Qin family whom I have adopted is also quite good. I plan to abandon Qin Yanshu and marry this Qin Yumo and let him be my consort. "
Ji Jin's fingers holding the scroll tightened slightly, and a sinister look flashed in her eyes: "Since the imperial sister doesn't care so much, can I stop worrying about General Fengyang's life?"
"The Emperor will decide for himself." Pingyao sighed, "But I want to see him, and there are still many questions in my heart that no one can answer. It would be great if the Emperor is willing to fulfill his wishes, but if he is not willing to fulfill his wishes, I will not reluctantly."
Ji Jin raised her eyes slightly, and her eyes fell on the face of Pingyao Princess Yun Danfengqing, as if she was considering the credibility of what she said.
I loved you so deeply, can you really let go?
Thinking of the poison in Ji Yucang's body and Shen Ning's purpose of buying those medicinal materials, Ji Jin always felt inexplicably uneasy.
Even if she doesn't believe that she can really make an antidote, she still needs to be careful.
And the most reassuring way is to let her disappear.
But don’t be too anxious.
Ji Jin took a deep breath: "Sister Huang will meet General Fengyang in less than half a month at most. At that time, you can choose to agree to my conditions, or ignore his life or death."
Princess Pingyao didn't say anything, she just stood up and left without even a moment's hesitation, as if she was indifferent to what Ji Jin raised.
However, as soon as she returned to the eldest princess's mansion, she locked herself in the bedroom alone, and even Qin Yumo, who had been favored the most these days, was not allowed to come near.
The young men in fluttering clothes felt a little uneasy. They all looked at Qin Yumo who was locked up outside the palace, frowned and said, "What's going on, Your Highness?"
"I don't know what happened."
"I originally thought Mr. Qin would fly up a branch and become a phoenix, but now it seems that there is no chance."
"Is it possible that the eldest princess still thinks that the legitimate son is better than the concubine and wants to win over the eldest son Qin again?"
"At Qin Yanshu's age, doesn't the eldest princess dislike his age?"
The eldest princess has favored beautiful young men over the years. At the age of sixteen, seventeen, eighteen or nineteen, Qin Yanshu has already passed the age of weakness. How could the eldest princess care about him?
Qin Yumo stood silently under the corridor, his brows furrowed, and a strange feeling emerged in his heart. He didn't pay attention to the ridicule of the people next to him.
He had heard this kind of cynicism so many times since he was a child that he had long lost the feeling.
But the eldest princess's unusual reaction at this time made him feel inexplicably uneasy.
