"I won't gain anything by lying to you. It's because of this thing that the Queen Mother attacked me. The Marquis drugged me and wanted to send me away from the capital again and again because of it."
Fu Shiju looked directly into Jiang Yuhuan's eyes and said, "It's empty talk."
"After I finish taking care of the Marquis's affairs, I will go to see the Duke of Zhenguo as my mother said."
The matter was important. Luo Huizhi's other letter was to Duke Zhen Guo, so she would hand over the matter to Duke Zhen Guo as stated in the letter.
By then, Fu Shiju would naturally know whether what she said was true or false.
She may not have time to take care of the matter if she brings it up now.
Jiang Qiao passed away, had a funeral and burial, and other arrangements, so she would be very busy.
The carriage stopped at the palace gate.
Jiang Yuhuan moved down the bodies of Jiang Qiao and the man in black with the help of Zhongyuan and Sanqi, leaving another body, Jiang Yuhuan, suspected to be the leader of the man in black.
"Think carefully about whether you want to cooperate or not."
After saying that, she pinched herself, ran to the guards at the palace gate while crying, and shouted miserably: "My wife Jiang Yuhuan asks to see the emperor. My father was assassinated outside, and I beg the emperor to seek justice!"
Her voice attracts people to stop.
After hearing what he said clearly, the scene was in an uproar.
"Who is so bold as to assassinate the Marquis?"
"This Marquis Wen Si usually keeps quiet, so he doesn't seem to offend anyone."
Jiang Yuhuan lowered his head and cried miserably, "It's all my fault. My father died trying to block the knife for me. I don't know who I offended, and they want to kill me over and over again. Please be the emperor's wife." Call the shots!”
"Speaking of which, the Princess of Duanyang County is really pitiful. She used to be crazy and managed to become the Princess of the County. However, she was assassinated and fell off a cliff."
"No. The results of the last assassination were not found yet, but we encountered it again this time. The people behind it are really rampant and commit crimes against the wind."
"Have you never heard of anyone having a grudge against her?"
"Hey! Nobles like them will hate each other as long as they have interests. I see, the princess should think about whether she has robbed other people's interests. The other party is so rampant and will not stop fighting. It's really pitiful to see."
"What if this can't be found out? The noble princess has nowhere to seek redress after being wronged, so what if we and other common people..."
The guard was shocked to the spot by Jiang Yuhuan's news. Before he could react, he went to report and heard the people's comments.
Realizing the seriousness, he turned around and headed back to the palace.
"Your Majesty, I have something important to report to you!"
"What's the matter?" Waiter Gong asked.
"Marquis Wensi was assassinated outside. The Princess of Duanyang County is at the gate of the palace begging the emperor for justice."
"What!" Waiter Gong didn't expect it, and his sharp voice was a bit harsh.
Without thinking, he walked into the palace and relayed the guard's words to Fu Lingyi.
Fu Lingyi was shocked after hearing this, and asked Gong Gong to quickly bring Jiang Yuhuan in. He also summoned the guards to the palace to inquire about the details carefully.
After learning that many people had gathered at the entrance of the palace and worried about the efficiency and reliability of the court's work, he asked the Queen Mother to be called.
This morning at court, for some reason, he made a decision that surprised the minister.
Although the minister didn't say anything, he could tell from the expressions of the ministers that the decision he made was probably not a good one.
He was very flustered. Over the past few years, he had been proud of his ability in political affairs, and it was even a source of confidence for him to sit on the dragon throne.
He never makes a mistake.
But yesterday he made the wrong decision.
Perhaps the decision was innocuous, so the ministers did not bring it up.
But he was still afraid, afraid that this divine power would disappear and he would return to mediocrity.
He heard from the guards that Fu Shi last was also there. Thinking of Fu Shi last's appearance in the morning, he was probably no longer willing to keep his peace.
He was worried that he would make a random decision and miss something important, so he thought it would be better to find the Queen Mother to take charge.
The Queen Mother was very puzzled when she heard that Jiang Qiao had been assassinated.
It was clearly promised that he would be captured alive, so how could anyone die?
What happened? Why no one came back to report.
The queen mother came to the imperial study with questions. Not long after, Jiang Yuhuan and Fu Shiju came in. Next to them were the bodies of Jiang Qiao and a man in black.
The Queen Mother's pupils suddenly tightened, and her hand on the chair handle unconsciously tightened.
Fu Lingyi noticed something strange about the Queen Mother and looked at the man in black on the ground and said something bad.
He cleared his throat, "Fifth sister-in-law, what happened? How could Wen Sihou..."
Jiang Yuhuan wiped away her tears, "The Marquis and I were going to pay homage to my mother, but suddenly a dozen men in black came out and asked me to hand over my things. But I didn't have anything, and my guards didn't say anything. Just take me away. In the end, the men in black took action directly. My father was killed by the men in black just to save me. If it weren’t for my bodyguards’ strong martial arts skills, I probably wouldn’t have been able to leave. Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for your wife. Ah! Maybe, the person who wanted to kill me last time refused to let me go."
After saying that, she shook her head again, "No, that's not right. The group of people last time wanted to kill me and they didn't mention anything."
Fu Lingyi was not clear about what the Queen Mother did, so he could only comfort Jiang Yuhuan.
"Fifth sister-in-law, don't get excited, I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter."
The Queen Mother also comforted her, "The deceased is gone. Ah Huan, you'd better go back and deal with Wen Sihou's funeral affairs first."
Jiang Yuhuan did not move, looking at the Queen Mother with a determined expression, "But I can't let Lord Marquis die in vain."
The Queen Mother's eyebrows jumped, and she quickly suppressed the panic in her heart, "Don't worry, the Emperor will send someone to investigate."
Jiang Yuhuan was silent for a long time. Just when the Queen Mother and Fu Lingyi thought she insisted on an answer, she relaxed.
"Then can I call my brother back?"
The Queen Mother breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Marquis Wensi has passed away. He should go home to attend the funeral."
"Then this man in black..."
The Queen Mother glanced at him calmly and said, "The man in black is an important person. Please stay here and take him away when Lin Shaoan comes."
"yes."
Jiang Yuhuan went to the palace to cry and then left the palace. Fu Shiju made no contribution except acting on the sidelines.
After leaving the palace, Jiang Yuhuan asked Zhongyuan for corpse-transforming water to erase the traces of the leading man in black.
The leading man in black has no special markings. His greatest use is to disappear quietly.
When the Queen Mother knew that the number of people involved in the assassination was not enough, she would be in constant fear every day.
Is it because he ran away to recuperate and was unable to return to life, or was Jiang Yuhuan hiding something and catching him alive to gain some leverage.
"Do you want your brother to become a prince?"
"Of course. I won't let my brother get what he deserves."
She didn't know what Princess Zhaohua thought about the title, but she had to prepare for a rainy day.
She deliberately mentioned Jiang Yuan in front of the Queen Mother just to tell the Queen Mother that she had a younger brother.
Whether she had something in her hand and what happened to the missing man in black were all the trump cards that allowed her brother to successfully attack the king.
"Why did you mention that?"
Jiang Yuhuan didn't care much, "It's just to keep the same tone. When the investigators ask me, I will say in front of everyone that the killer came for one thing. Do you think those things came to light without any basis? I put it forward, When those things appear, everyone will feel that there are traces to follow and will be more convinced."
The matter involved in the letter has been going on for fifteen years now, so the Queen Mother must not have slept well in these years.
She will follow Luo Huizhi's will and announce everything to the world.
Before everything is made public, momentum must be built in advance to push public sentiment to its peak.
In this way, when you subdue the Queen Mother, you will be what everyone expects.
And she mentioned it in front of the Queen Mother, and she also wanted to torture the Queen Mother.
She had injured more than a dozen people today, and she didn't know the situation at the scene, so she must be filled with doubts.
If she wants to know more, she must start with Jiang Yuhuan.
As long as the Queen Mother takes action, Jiang Yuhuan will have the opportunity to seize more leverage on the Queen Mother.
Jiang Qiao, his death cannot be in vain.
In the palace.
After Jiang Yuhuan and others left, the Queen Mother suddenly changed color, grabbed the teacup and threw it on the ground.
"Mother, what happened?"
"The Ai family also wants to know what happened!"
Her people are not incomprehensible people, and even if that thing appears, they will not kill it.
Unless Jiang Yuhuan poses a greater threat, forcing them to fight back.
Jiang Yuhuan's bodyguard can deal with so many people, it's not easy.
That bitch Luo Huizhi really left Jiang Yuhuan a trump card!
"Do you want Xuanlin Shaoan to enter the palace now?"
"So many people outside the palace know this, so Jiang Yuhuan should be given an explanation for this matter no matter what."
"Can……"
Fu Lingyi looked at the man in black on the ground.
This matter is destined to have no results. What is the difference between investigating and not investigating?
The Queen Mother's eyes flashed, "Didn't we already identify several suspects regarding Jiang Yuhuan's assassination last time?"
"Yes. Those people who went hunting are all suspects."
In fact, Lin Shaoan has already traced Sun Qi and Ning Zheng.
It's just that these two people had no quarrel with Jiang Yuhuan and had no motive to kill Jiang Yuhuan.
Moreover, the two testified against each other and had perfect alibi.
Now we can only find a breakthrough from other places, and Lin Shaoan is still investigating.
"This assassination should also be blamed on the murderer last time."
Fu Lingyi frowned, "Lin Shaoan... I'm afraid he won't be willing."
Lin Shaoan has always been upright and is especially responsible for handling cases.
"Then let the Minister of Dali Temple supervise this matter. With the pressure from his superiors, he still dares to resist."
"Okay, I will talk to the Minister of Dali Temple in private. Queen Mother, why did you send someone to kill Jiang Yuhuan?"
"You don't have to worry about this, just be your emperor."
The Queen Mother hurriedly left after explaining the matter, leaving Fu Lingyi sitting in the main hall with a dark face.
He had already ascended the throne and became emperor, but he was still not trustworthy and unreliable in the eyes of his mother.
Before his brain became clear, the queen mother despised him for being stupid, but she never gave up on letting him ascend the throne.
The queen mother's ambition has never changed. If one day her intelligence disappears, will the queen mother overtake him and monopolize power?
And will he, being stupid, become a puppet in the hands of his mother?
Thinking that the Queen Mother always planned for the British prince's nephew, Fu Lingyi felt a sense of crisis in his heart.
It is a taboo for a foreign relative to have exclusive power!
When Jiang Yuhuan entered the palace, news of Jiang Qiao's death had spread throughout the capital.
When she returned to the Hou Mansion, everyone in the Hou Mansion was waiting at the second gate.
When they saw Jiang Qiao being carried on a stretcher, Aunt Sun and Aunt Qian rushed in front of Jiang Yuhuan, pulling and beating her continuously.
"It was you who killed the Marquis!"
"It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, how could the Marquis die?"
