After I became a passerby, I saved the villain's family

As soon as the news of the disappearance of the prince of the Southern Dynasty reached the palace, Emperor Chengren immediately summoned several trusted ministers into the palace.

Among them were Duke Jiang and Jiang Ci Jin.

Emperor Chengren frowned and looked at the ministers below.

"What do you, dear friends, think of this matter?"

"Your Majesty," a minister stood up, "I think the most urgent task should be to find the prince of the Southern Dynasty first. After all, if someone is lost in Kyoto, it is no small matter!"

Emperor Chengren nodded slightly, "Of course, I have already sent the Imperial Guards to search the entire city and try to rescue the person in the shortest possible time."

"But what I want to ask is the person who is behind this. What do you think, my dear ministers?"

"Your Majesty," Jiang Cijin stood up, "It is obvious that someone deliberately provoked the confrontation between the Southern Dynasty and Dacheng."

Emperor Chengren nodded, "Go on."

"Your Majesty, the Kunhe Palace incident is still unclear, but the capital is already spreading rumors that the Southern Dynasty was responsible. The people are dissatisfied with the Southern Dynasty, and some are even threatening to severely punish the Southern Dynasty's envoys."

"And at this time, the prince of the Southern Dynasty disappeared. It is hard not to think that this was done by Dacheng. I believe the Southern Dynasty will also think so. In this case, the Southern Dynasty will definitely hate Dacheng."

"Even if we find the prince of the Southern Dynasty, there will be a rift between Dacheng and the Southern Dynasty, and it will be difficult to restore the relationship to the way it was before."

"Your Majesty must know better who is the beneficiary of the strained relations between the two countries."

Jiang Ci Jin almost said the three words "Beixin Kingdom".

"That's right." Emperor Chengren said.

"and......"

Jiang Cijin paused.

"Tomorrow is the day when envoys from all countries will leave Beijing. However, something has happened to the prince of the Southern Dynasty at this critical moment. Under such circumstances, envoys from all countries will definitely stay in Beijing to wait for the result."

"I wonder what the purpose is for this person to stay in Kyoto for a few more days..."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Chengren frowned tightly.

"What Jiang Aiqing said is absolutely right."

As he was speaking, a palace maid came in with a message.

"Your Majesty, the envoy of the Southern Dynasty requests to see you."

That arrives so fast?

Emperor Chengren frowned.

"Xuan."

As soon as the envoys from the Southern Dynasty received the news, they rushed into the palace without stopping.

The prince of his own country disappeared in Kyoto, and it is reasonable for Dacheng to give an explanation.

The envoy from the Southern Dynasty entered the Palace of Tranquil Longevity with an angry look on his face.

"Your Majesty, please give the Southern Dynasty an explanation for what happened today!" The envoy of the Southern Dynasty spoke bluntly.

"How dare you!" Eunuch Luo scolded.

Emperor Chengren waved his hand, indicating that he should not worry about it.

"Envoy from the Southern Dynasty, I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding on this matter."

"Misunderstand?"

The envoy from the Southern Dynasty snorted coldly.

"You, the Dacheng royal family, easily believed the words of a eunuch and pinned the crime of murdering the queen on my country, the Southern Dynasty. Now the matter has not yet come to a conclusion, but you have already assumed that it was my country that did it."

"You are so angry that you take our young prince as your target, and His Majesty Dacheng actually said it was just a misunderstanding?!"

Emperor Chengren couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he saw that the other party was indeed angry.

This envoy from the Southern Dynasty is really stupid.

At this time, the eunuch came hurriedly to report.

"Your Majesty, the Third Prince is asking for an audience outside the palace, saying that he has obtained evidence of the Kunhe Palace case."

Emperor Chengren frowned, "Let him in."

Xiao Yuheng stepped into the Palace of Tranquil Longevity again after more than a month. Looking at the officials standing in the palace, he couldn't help but feel dazed.

One day, he will make all these people kneel at his feet!

Xiao Yuheng stood in the hall and spoke loudly: "Father, I have found out the whole story of the Kunhe Palace incident."

"Who ordered this?" asked Emperor Chengren.

Xiao Yuheng looked at the envoy from the Southern Dynasty.

"It is the Southern Dynasty!"

After Xiao Yuheng finished speaking, the entire hall fell silent.

Everyone looked at him with complicated expressions.

Xiao Yuheng was completely unprepared for the current situation.

He thought that when he said these words, some people would support him and some would oppose him.

I had never expected such an embarrassing situation.

Xiao Yuheng was stunned for a moment.

Only the envoy of the Southern Dynasty heard this and spoke angrily:

"You said it was my Southern Dynasty that did it? What evidence do you have?!"

These words brought Xiao Yuheng back to consciousness.

"Yes, evidence."

Xiao Yuheng quickly presented the evidence in his hand.

"Father, this is what I found in the eunuch's residence. It is evidence of his dealings with the Southern Dynasty."

"Not only are there letters between the two sides, but I also found five hundred taels of silver!"

Xiao Yuheng looked serious, but he was actually ecstatic inside.

These "evidences" were all prepared by him with great effort in the past few days, and there was absolutely no mistake to be found.

Eunuch Luo took the "evidence" and presented it to the emperor on the desk in front of him.

But unexpectedly, Emperor Chengren didn't even look at it, and the expression on his face was indescribable.

This third brother came at the wrong time!

Xiao Yuheng was very surprised to see that his father didn't care.

Why does he feel something is weird?

How come no one has a normal reaction today except for the envoy from the Southern Dynasty...

"Great!" Nan Chaoguo was very excited, "So you were waiting for me here!"

"Your Majesty, the evidence in the Kunhe Palace case is 'conclusive'. The Third Prince has even found the so-called evidence. Why don't you admit that the murder of the Southern Dynasty Prince was done by your country?"

"First, they framed my Southern Dynasty for murdering Queen Dacheng, and now they're targeting our little prince."

"I would like to ask everyone present here, what exactly is your country's intention?!"

Xiao Yuheng was completely confused by these words.

It’s understandable that the Southern Dynasty refused to acknowledge the “evidence” he produced, but what does it have to do with their little prince?

Except for Xiao Yuheng, everyone present had an embarrassed look on their face.

Jiang Cijin stood up and said, "Don't worry, Southern Dynasty envoys. There must be a misunderstanding here..."

"Another misunderstanding?"

The Southern Dynasty envoy laughed angrily.

"I don't care if it's a misunderstanding or not. If we can't find the little prince today, my Southern Dynasty will definitely mobilize the entire country to fight Dacheng to the death!"

After the Southern Dynasty envoy finished speaking, he left angrily.

Hearing this, all the officials looked solemn.

Only Xiao Yuheng was confused.

What exactly happened here?

Shouldn't the Southern Dynasty be worried after seeing the evidence? Why is it so stubborn?

Seeing his ignorant look, Jiang Ci Jin couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

But I still politely explained it to him:

"Does the Third Prince still not know? This morning, the Third Prince of the Southern Dynasty was kidnapped by criminals. Because of the Kunhe Palace incident, there was a rift between the Southern Dynasty and Dacheng, and the envoys of the Southern Dynasty believed that it was Dacheng who kidnapped their Third Prince."

"Just as His Majesty was about to explain to him, the Third Prince came into the palace with the 'evidence' of the Kunhe Palace case..."

After Jiang Ci Jin finished speaking, he looked at him meaningfully.
