After the rebirth of the Marquis's mistress, she smiled at the scumbag's family

Chapter 93

The Dingyuan Palace was quiet and peaceful, but the Imperial Palace was extremely lively.

"Mom, if you don't come back, not only will my sister be killed, but my son will be finished too.

You may not know this yet, but the eldest daughter of the Zhennan Palace, Lu Guifang, has just been divorced by Madam Dong.

Who knows, my son might receive an imperial decree and marry that evil woman!"

"Nonsense!" Emperor Xuanwen was almost mad with anger. This brat just knew how to add fuel to the fire.

When he turned around and saw his elder sister's angry face, he immediately lowered his spirit, "Eldest sister, I have my reasons for doing this."

Xie Yuanfeng wiped her tears and sat on the soft stool, "Tell me what you want to hear. Are you henpecked and dare not refute the queen, or does that old man have some tricks to charm the king?"

Emperor Xuanwen: ....

"Hey," Emperor Xuanwen sat on another soft stool, "Eldest sister, do you still remember the legend that our father told us before he died?"

"do not remember."

"..." Emperor Xuanwen continued helplessly: "Before the fall of the country, the previous emperor secretly hid a batch of gold, silver and jewelry, and the general in charge of escorting it at the time was the old King Zhennan..."

Xie Yuanfeng glanced at Emperor Xuanwen, "So?"

“At first, I didn’t believe it either, but over the years, although the Prince of Zhennan has been stationed at the border honestly, he would send a small team of troops to a forest in the southern border every year.

He told others that he was going to collect herbs.

I sent people to check, and they are indeed some herbs, but they are not very rare.

We also sent people into the forest, but they never came back and our knowledge is as to whether they are alive or dead.

Another point is that Lu Jingting’s two half-brothers are still missing. The last time they were seen was near that forest.”

"So you suspect he hid the gold, silver and jewels in that wood?"

Xie Yuanfeng frowned and continued to ask, "Is this the reason why you married my daughter to a loser?"

Emperor Xuanwen shook his head and said, "Sister, what if there is not only gold, silver and jewelry there, but also an army hidden there?

The place is surrounded by mountains and poisonous miasma, and seems to be uninhabited.

But every time the King of Zhennan sent people there, they would stay there for nearly a month.

I am worried..."

Xie Yuanfeng lowered his head and thought for a moment, "That old man personally killed the previous emperor and ordered the entire palace to be burned down...

The fire burned for a day and a night, and ashes were everywhere.

But no one has ever seen the corpse of the royal family of the previous dynasty.

If your guess is correct, I'm afraid that old man has big plans.

But even so, why don't you marry your daughter to the Zhennan Palace?"

Emperor Xuanwen pursed his lips and said, "Eldest sister, none of my daughters are as smart as Yunxi..."

Seeing the sarcasm in his elder sister's eyes, Emperor Xuanwen could not continue.

"Isn't it just that the Queen is jealous of me for whipping her a few times back then?

And your two good sons fought for Yun Xi.

So you just go with the flow and marry Yun Xi to that loser, firstly to appease the queen and keep the harem stable, and secondly to stop your sons from having such thoughts, so as to avoid any trouble within the family, right?"

Emperor Xuanwen smiled awkwardly.

"Have you forgotten why I whipped the Queen back then?!"

Emperor Xuanwen lowered his head and said, "Eldest sister, she is the heir of a country after all, and she is my first wife..."

"I am still your elder sister who raised you with great difficulty!" Xie Yuanfeng was angry.

Xie Yuanfeng was eight years older than Emperor Xuanwen. The previous emperor had been away from home for many years, and the empress at the time, now the empress dowager, was in poor health and had been bedridden for a long time. It can be said that Emperor Xuanwen was brought up by Xie Yuanfeng, the eldest sister of the emperor.

Emperor Xuanwen might not be afraid of the empress dowager, but he was really afraid of Xie Yuanfeng.

Since I was a child, I was beaten by my elder sister many times, so it can be said that this is a kind of oppression engraved in my bones.

"This golden whip was given to me by my father. It can be used to beat down tyrants and corrupt officials. Do you recognize it?!"

"...recognize..."

"This golden medal of immunity from death was given to me by my father. He also issued an edict that as long as I don't rebel, I can do whatever I want in Dali. Do you accept it?!"

"...recognize..."

"That's fine. I haven't been back to Beijing for a long time. I miss the Queen so much. How about I go and see her now?"

Emperor Xuanwen closed his eyes helplessly, "Eldest sister... show mercy!"

Xie Yuanfeng walked to the door, turned around and said, "In public, Yun Xi is the first-rank princess of the Dali Dynasty, and she should serve the country; privately, she is your niece, so she should naturally help her uncle.

Similarly, as an uncle, shouldn't you also feel sorry for such a well-behaved and sensible niece?"

"Eldest sister is right. I will issue an edict to confer Yunxi the title of princess right now."

"Forget about the princess. It would be better to use the golden whip bestowed by the emperor. What do you think, Your Majesty?"

"..." Emperor Xuanwen knew that he had let his elder sister down, "Okay, I will issue the decree right away."

Li Yuanfeng glanced at Xiao Yunxi and his sister, then turned and walked towards Kunning Palace.

"Yun Xi, you..."

"Uncle Emperor," Xiao Yunxi smiled obediently, "Mother is right. Yunxi is the Princess of Dali, so of course I can't just stand by and watch. I won't leave the Zhennan Palace until I find out what the old Zhennan Prince is up to.

But don't execute Lin yet, Yun Xi is still useful."

Emperor Xuanwen smiled with satisfaction, "Yun Xi understands my painstaking efforts the best. Don't worry, I will definitely find a pleasing husband for you in the future!"

"It doesn't matter if I'm your husband or something, you should just give me the golden whip first," Xiao Yunxi stared at the emperor, "I'm really feeling aggrieved today, if I don't vent my anger with the golden whip, I'll get sick!"

Emperor Xuanwen twitched his lips, "I asked Li Dezhong to give it to you. There is a cowhide purple rattan whip in the small storeroom. It can make people bleed..."

"Thank you, Uncle Emperor!"

Emperor Xuanwen sighed, turned to look at Xiao Jingchen, and said, "In two days, I will issue an edict to order you to leave the capital and serve as the Censor of Liangjiang.

In addition, a secret guard will be assigned to you. Do you know what to do?"

Jamel Xiao replied in a deep voice: “I understand.”

"Remember, don't alert the enemy!"

"Yes!"

"Li Jingzhong, let them in."

Li Jingzhong immediately led the three people back to the hall.

"Your Majesty, I feel guilty!"

Emperor Xuanwen sneered, "It's good that Lu Qing knows. You are guilty of deceiving the emperor, and so is your grandson. As for this lowly maid, she even plotted to murder the first-rank princess of the dynasty, and she should be punished by slicing.

However, this time you captured the prince of the Di tribe alive and destroyed two-thirds of the Di tribe's troops, which can be considered a great achievement.

But it is not enough to offset the demerits.

Didn’t the late emperor grant you a red-lettered certificate?

Li Dezhong will go to the palace to get it back later, and it will be considered as a discount."

"His Majesty!"

"Why, Lu Qing doesn't want to?"

The old King of Zhennan paused, "This old minister thanks the Lord for his grace!"

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."

"How dare you! How dare you be so presumptuous in front of the emperor!"

Li Jingzhong scolded a palace maid who ran in in panic.

"Your Majesty, I am the Queen's personal maid, please go and save her.

The eldest princess whipped the queen more than ten times! "

After the palace maid finished speaking, she didn’t hear the emperor’s voice for a long time and felt a little panicked for a moment. Could it be that she came at the wrong time?

Her body couldn't help but tremble, and she clasped her head tightly against the back of her hands, fearing that she would be dragged out and beaten to death in the next moment.
