Neither the assassin nor the woman who broke into the prince's room were caught. The entire Prince Zhan's mansion was still under martial law, and no news was revealed at all.
Mainly because I can't afford to lose that person.
The king of war, who was invincible on the battlefield, was repeatedly humiliated by women. He didn't want to lose his face if word spread about this.
Dongfang Qingqing was secretly sent back to the Duke's Mansion, and what she had done was truthfully informed to the Duke Dongfang Xingchang.
After all, even though they were officials in the same dynasty, no one broke the news and spread the news. This gave the Duke's palace a face and saved the face of the Queen Mother and the Empress.
As the women of the Dongfang family, the Queen Mother and the Empress have relied on them to assist in running the court for many years. Now the Dongfang family has overwhelming power in the court.
Now the only one that can rival it is Prince Zhan's Mansion. The two will either join forces or become their biggest enemy.
Now, one careless step will cause the relationship to deteriorate, and the gain will outweigh the loss.
This time, the gate of the Duke's Mansion was also closed, and the news was blocked.
Those who didn't know better thought that their daughter had been wronged in Prince Zhan's Mansion, and that was why she was injured and carried back.
Only their family knew what happened. Although the injury was indeed sustained at Prince Zhan's Mansion, compared to Dongfang Qingqing's drugging of Jun Beicheng, this could be ignored.
Duke Dongfang Xingchang ignored his daughter's leg injury and slapped her with his hand.
It's embarrassing enough for a pre-married woman to chase a man all day long, but she dares to drug him, which is simply obscene!
If word of this gets out, the Dongfang family will become a joke to the entire Kyoto city!
Dongfang Qingqing finally managed to stand firm, but was slapped and rolled several times on the ground. Her forehead even hit the leg of the chair, causing a big swelling on the spot.
Now his legs are lame and his face is crooked, making him look miserable and ugly.
The Duke's wife Chen Qiuyun was so frightened that she went up to protect her daughter, wailing continuously: "Sir, stop fighting! Qingqing is still getting married. If you destroy her, how can you destroy the child for the rest of his life?"
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Xingchang became even more angry: "You still want to get married? I have lost all my people, and does anyone dare to want her? How dare you do such a thing? Is there a girl out there? The shame of the family!”
Dongfang Xingchang was so angry that he picked up his family method, a cane that looked painful to hit, and even beat his wife.
If it wasn't for this conniving mother, how could she have raised such a brainless thing?
He beat and scolded: "This is how you teach your daughter. Look how the people you teach embarrass me outside! You teach a shameless thing and raise a son who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun. I want you to What's the use, you still dare to protect me!"
"Instead of letting her go out and embarrass me, the Queen Mother and the Empress, it's better to kill her!"
The dignified Duke, he couldn't afford to lose face like this. His relationship with the King of War was already tense in the court, but now that he had lost face in front of others again and again, he almost vomited blood!
The finger-thick rattan was half-soft and half-hard. It could not hurt the bones when hit on the body, but the pain on the skin and flesh was unbearable.
Dongfang Qingqing has always been arrogant and spoiled, and she couldn't bear the hardship. She immediately cried and retorted: "Dad said that I embarrassed the Queen Mother and the Queen. Do you know that this method was taught by the Queen Mother? The emperor's uncle has repeatedly refused to submit. I have What can I do? It’s fine if you don’t help, you will only teach your daughter a lesson!”
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the Duke and his wife changed.
Chen Qiuyun looked pale and covered his daughter's mouth. If these words were spread, his head would be lost!
Dongfang Xingchang dismissed the maids and servants waiting in the front hall, with a terrifyingly gloomy face: "You bastard! How dare you bite the Queen Mother indiscriminately? I think you still don't have a long memory!"
The father and daughter look very similar. When he was young, he was considered a handsome and charming young man. Now that he is old and has been in the officialdom for a long time, he has a calm and sharp look on his face.
It's a pity that Dongfang Qingqing only inherited his father's appearance, not his brain.
The glare made her turn pale and she didn't dare to say anything. She felt like she was going to be silenced by her old father!
Dongfang Xingchang didn't hit her this time because he realized the seriousness of the matter.
If this idiot daughter doesn't take good care of her, sooner or later she will bring trouble to the whole family. She is simply too stupid to be of much use!
It doesn't matter whether the Queen Mother or the Queen knows about this idea, nor does it matter whose idea it is.
What he was angry about was not that his daughter did something dirty like drugging, but that he was thrown back after failing to do so!
The high power of the war throne and the large number of troops at hand have always been a worry for the emperor and the queen mother.
If Dongfang Qingqing can't do it, there will be others, and eventually the power will fall to the Dongfang family, but his own daughter fails to live up to the expectations!
This time, the matter has become so big that it has not been successful. Not only is it embarrassing, but the chance is gone, and it will be taught a lesson by the Queen Mother and the Empress.
Dongfang Xingchang became more and more angry as he thought about it, and directly issued a death order: "Just stay at home and confine yourself! If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will cut your tongue. Don't even think about becoming the princess of war. Wait until the limelight passes." I’ll find you another marriage!”
This girl is a hot potato if you keep her in your hands, it's better to throw her out as soon as possible.
If these things get out, no one will even dare to marry her.
Looking at the angry back of her old father, Dongfang Qingqing still didn't know the seriousness of the matter.
He cried and acted unreasonably as before: "Dad! I don't want to marry anyone else, I want to be the princess of war!"
Chen Qiuyun was shocked, with "Please stop talking" written all over his face, and he went up to cover his daughter's mouth.
If she calls the master back later, he will inevitably be beaten again. How can she withstand this old bone?
"Stop talking, be obedient, and stay here for a few days. Don't make your father angry. I'm begging you like a mother..."
Dongfang Qingqing, who was imprisoned in the room, was so angry that she threw everything around, and she was just one step away from success. If it hadn't been for that damn assassin, she would have been the Princess of War now!
So what if she was the one who drugged it? The rice is cooked, and Jun Beicheng, as her imperial uncle and the famous war king, has to take responsibility even if he doesn't want to for the sake of face.
Seeing her sad look, her personal maid Cuicui rolled her eyes and whispered: "Miss, don't be angry. I heard some news when I was at Prince Zhan's Mansion. Maybe there is something I can do."
Dongfang Qingqing immediately became energetic and gestured with her fingers to the maid to come forward and talk.
Cuicui smiled schemingly: "I heard that a woman entered the prince's room last night, but they haven't found her yet, so why can't it be you, miss? No one else knows about it anyway."
Dongfang Qingqing was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, yes, why can't it be her?
When things get serious, even if it's not her, it can only be her. Don't be afraid that Jun Beicheng won't be responsible!
But when she thought about the situation she had worked so hard to set up last night, but in the end other women took advantage of it, she was almost furious.
A pair of angry almond-shaped eyes were extremely vicious: "Leave the matter to you. Also, keep an eye on Prince Zhan's Mansion. I want that woman to disappear forever!"
