The naughty and cowardly little crybaby sold himself out

Swearing an oath to heaven in front of the emperor's parents is no ordinary oath.

Everyone around was stunned, especially the imperial concubine. She must be regretting her decision to the core.

The emperor had previously hinted that the matter of Chu Xia would be postponed because she couldn't wait for the two sisters to enter the palace together. But now, it's completely over. She will never have a chance to have Chu Xia as her daughter-in-law.

The Prime Minister and his wife were stunned. They had no right to speak in this situation.

When Chu Xia heard Jing Muyang's words, her face turned even paler and her heart was broken. The man she had always wanted to marry, the man who was willing to marry her before, but today he made such a statement for another woman. This was the Jing Muyang she had never seen before. She had never thought that a man could do so much for a woman!

But what had she done wrong? She had envisioned so many futures with Jing Muyang, was there really no chance of realizing them?

Chuxia brushed away the prime minister's expression and walked forward with a face full of affection, tears and grievance.

"Your Majesty, the whole city knows that I, Chu Xia, only have you in my heart. Since Your Majesty did not love Chu Xia, why did you accept the marriage granted by the Emperor? Since you accepted the marriage, how can you abandon me? Chu Xia just wants to be with you, no matter what status, Your Majesty, can't you fulfill it?"

Chu Jian was very angry at Chu Xia's humiliating and compromising attitude.

"Your heart and eyes are full of him. You just want to be with him. You say it so nicely. Since you love him so much, why didn't you bury him with him?!" Chu Jian pulled Jing Muyang up to protect him behind him and yelled at Chu Xia.

"First time meeting you!"

The emperor angrily accused him of making the decision to bury a living person on impulse. If anyone was to hold him accountable, it was his responsibility and the prime minister could not be blamed. In fact, it was because of the prime minister's advice that he was spared the stigma of burying a living person with him.

"Your Majesty, since the Prime Minister's Mansion has replaced Chu Xia with me to be buried with the deceased, then Chu Xia has no right to say such things to slander Mu Yang today! Mu Yang naturally agreed to the marriage and promised her a lifetime. It was the Prime Minister's Mansion that made this decision. How could she not know about it? I'm afraid she watched our funeral! She let go because she was afraid of death. Why should she blame Mu Yang?" Chu Jian was relentless.

Chu Xia couldn't stop crying, "How could I be afraid of death? How could I bear to let the prince go on the road alone? I was ready to be buried with him..."

"What's the use? You're still alive, and you're not buried with your loved ones!"

"Chu Jian! I agreed to replace you because you were weak and terminally ill since childhood. It has nothing to do with Chu Xia. It was me who changed my mind. You can't really let me bury a living person with you!" The emperor was extremely angry with her. Chu Xia was indeed desperate at the time and looked like she was going to die with Xiao Jiu.

"She is a living person, so how can I not be one? Who said I was weak? Who said I was terminally ill? I have been healthy and strong since I was a child. I don't even know why I woke up in a coffin!" Chu Jian raised his voice and talked nonsense.

Never mind. Although she didn't know what her body in this world looked like since childhood, the Prime Minister couldn't do such a thing himself. But this matter must have been arranged by their Prime Minister's Office. Anyway, it had come to this today, and they wouldn't be able to meet properly in the future. There was no need for her to worry about them.

The emperor was shocked. What had he heard? Was Chu Jian not seriously ill?

The prime minister was also shocked. He had indeed been sick since childhood, and he was indeed terminally ill in the end. He was definitely not alive and kicking! Otherwise, he would not dare to do that.

Concubine Yun was even more shocked. Seeing the man jumping around with such vigor, she didn't think he was lying. So, the Prime Minister's Mansion killed someone to bury his daughter? And it was his own daughter? She was so scared that she shook off the Prime Minister's wife's hand and stepped forward to grab the emperor's sleeve.

“Your Majesty is very insightful!” The Prime Minister was the first to kneel down, and the Prime Minister’s wife immediately knelt down with Chu Xia, “Your Majesty is very insightful, the Imperial Hospital also made a diagnosis at the beginning, this is definitely not something an old minister can do!”

The emperor said nothing, his head buzzing. In fact, he had been thinking about one question: how did Xiaojiu and Chujian wake up in the coffin?

Let’s not talk about the first meeting, let’s just talk about Xiaojiu. Everyone in the Imperial Hospital diagnosed him as incurable, and he died not long after. This is a fact he has investigated.

Is there a hidden story here? If there is a hidden story, which of his sons are involved? Is the crown prince involved?

No matter what, this matter should not be publicized, and the Prime Minister’s Mansion cannot fall!

"That's all for today! No one is allowed to spread this! Things are not as simple as you think. I will send someone to investigate secretly!" The emperor wanted to throw up his sleeves, but Concubine Yun held them tightly.

"Then how do we deal with the marriage? Your Majesty, you just summoned me to the Imperial Study and said you would support me. Wuwuwuwu... I don't want Chuxia to come into the palace!"

She started crying again when she first saw me, and almost sat down on the ground and threw a tantrum.

"You, you, you..." The emperor was so angry that he fainted. How could such a thing be revealed?

"I will issue an edict declaring the marriage between Xiaojiu and Chuxia invalid! Okay!"

"I don't want to go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion either!" Chu Jian didn't respond and continued crying.

"Okay, okay!" The emperor suddenly reacted, "No! If you don't go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, where are you going to get married? Doesn't the Prime Minister have any face? Don't I have any face! You must go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion for me! I can agree to let you go back the day before the wedding. Prime Minister, you must do this for me! If there is any mistake and the royal family loses face, I will hold you accountable!"

"I obey your order!" The prime minister responded with fear and trepidation.

When I first saw him, I stopped talking at the right time.

The group parted unhappily.
