The heroine takes revenge on me, I am a sickly girl, I conquer the country and enjoy happiness

Although Princess Anle was still frightened after escaping death, she still forced herself to stay awake and cried all the way from the Yanxi Gate into the palace.

She understood that this was the perfect time to break off the engagement with the Shangguan family.

The palace gates had already been locked by then, and the sudden noise made by Princess Anle made the nobles in the palace feel uneasy.

When they entered Shufei's Qingyun Palace, Anle hugged her mother and cried until she was hoarse and out of breath. Even the usually quiet Shufei couldn't help but get angry.

"My son, what happened? Who bullied you and made you so wronged that you broke into the palace at night?"

Anle cried so hard that she seemed about to faint. Her deer-like eyes were swollen like walnut kernels. Shu Fei's heart almost broke when she saw this.

Palace maids were coming in and out of the hall, preparing cold compresses, calming medicine, and stomach-nourishing soup.

Shu Fei hugged her daughter and comforted her for a long time before Anle stopped crying. She was so ashamed and angry that she told the evil deeds of her future prince consort.

There is no need to exaggerate. The fact that he deliberately murdered the royal princess is enough to make him die without a burial place, not to mention the shameless and dirty things he did in the princess's mansion while being a son-in-law!

"My dear girl, you have suffered! Don't worry, mother will definitely seek justice for you!"

Anle was so frightened that he barely ate a few mouthfuls of the meat soup, filled his stomach, and then fell into a deep sleep.

When Shu Fei heard that Anle was not sent by anyone from the Princess's Mansion, her eyes darkened and she suspected someone was manipulating it behind the scenes.

Soon, the head maid came into the palace with a cute little girl.

"Hail, Madam!"

Fuling kowtowed politely.

Shu Fei fiddled with the tourmaline beads on her wrist and looked at the Poria cocos on the ground dangerously.

The little girl looked a little untidy, and was sweating in the cold weather. If you looked at her a little longer, you could see traces of scratches on her clothes caused by a sharp weapon.

It really looks like he's been in a fight.

"Look up. Whose maid are you?"

In Fuling's heart, the young lady comes first, and the master and the mistress come second. As long as the young lady gives the order, she would dare to stab them even if the king of heaven came.

She was not affected by Shu Fei's aura at all. When questioned by Shu Fei and her palace maids, she told them everything she had seen and heard since entering the princess's mansion.

Finally, he added anxiously:

"Please help me find my young lady!"

"How can this be! Who dares to cause trouble at the Ninth Princess' birthday party?"

Shu Fei waved her hand and had Fuling taken away and taken care of.

The thick night had not yet dissipated, and the officials had already arrived outside the palace gate in their carriages and were waiting.

What happened in the princess's mansion was extremely chaotic, and the officials were each thinking about what to impeach at the court meeting in order to gain the greatest benefit while protecting themselves.

However, the dozen or so officials whose children were in trouble suppressed their anger and decided to jointly submit a memorial to the emperor, asking him to thoroughly investigate the case.

When the time came, the palace gates opened and officials entered the palace one after another.

As soon as the Imperial Eunuch Wang Fu uttered the words "If you have something to report, please stand up; if not, please dismiss the court," several officials stood up.

For fear of being overtaken, they all started to report.

"Your Majesty, a horrific assassination occurred in the Princess's residence yesterday! Six of the courtiers' sons who were attending the banquet were innocently killed, and twelve were seriously injured! Countless palace servants met with accidents!

At the foot of the imperial city! In the princess's mansion! The thieves' actions are nothing short of provocation! Your Majesty's great power must not be damaged!

Please, Your Majesty, order a thorough investigation and capture all the traitors in one fell swoop!"

"Your Majesty, I impeach the Regent for his ill intentions and his revenge! He deliberately designed to lure the assassin to the Princess's mansion to kill our children in retaliation!

Your Majesty, please severely punish the Regent!"

"Your Majesty, I accuse the Sixth Prince of his bad conduct and dishonesty, for doing something immoral with the only daughter of Lord Feng, the Minister of Imperial Households, in public!

I would also like to impeach the Minister of the Imperial Household, Feng, for his lax family traditions and inadequate education, which resulted in Miss Feng being such a frivolous and dissolute person!"

"Your Majesty, I accuse the Shangguan family of having evil intentions and deliberately murdering the Ninth Princess..."

"Your Majesty, I impeach..."

Emperor Mingde on the throne had a dark look in his eyes, and no expression could be seen on his face hidden by the golden mask.

He listened quietly to the noise of the officials, and his slender knuckles began to tap on the pure gold dragon head armrest from time to time.

"despair"

"despair"

"despair"

"..."

The dull knocking sounds gradually drowned out the cynical or passionate reports from officials.

"Ah--"

Emperor Mingde laughed, holding his brows together and jokingly said:

"There are so many people who need to be impeached today. It seems that all of you officials have become more diligent. I am a little ashamed!"

Aren’t we talking about what happened in the princess’s mansion? Why are we talking about them now?

Your Majesty's temperament is becoming more and more strange!

Although the ministers were puzzled, their knees slammed to the ground.

"Your Majesty's forgiveness!"

"I don't dare!"

Emperor Mingde snorted in an ambiguous tone, raised his hand and nodded to the middle-aged man kneeling in the second row of civil servants.

"Shangguan, my dear, kneel closer."

Shangguan Xiuwen shuddered in his heart and knelt down before the emperor tremblingly.

“Your Majesty…Ah!”

As soon as he opened his mouth, a cup of scalding hot tea hit him on the head.

Just when His Majesty was angry, Wang Fu silently handed the tray back to the young eunuch, then stood aside politely, swinging his whisk.

"You are good, and your son is even better. He was really amazing. He chased the princess and shouted for her to kill. He scared Anle so much that he broke into the palace at night and didn't even dare to go back to his own mansion!"

All the ministers fell silent and lay on the ground, not daring to move.

"Your Majesty, this is unfair!"

Shangguan Xiuwen was still unaware of the serious mistake his legitimate son had made, and cried out in pain.

The affairs of the mansion were controlled by his step-wife. He knew that Shangguan Lingyun had many friends, was talented in writing, and could be of great use. He also helped him get in touch with the Fourth Prince. He had a much brighter future than his sickly eldest son!

Emperor Mingde snorted coldly. This time the son dared to chop the princess, so next time the father would dare to chop him, the emperor, right?

Emperor Mingde summoned the best men from the Ministry of Punishment, and in front of all the officials, especially Shangguan Xiuwen, they chopped off Shangguan Lingyun's five limbs, and then sent the entire Shangguan family to the Ministry of Punishment.

The Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple jointly investigated the major case that occurred in the Princess's Mansion.

In addition, Feng Zhuzhu was granted to the Sixth Prince as a concubine, and was to enter the palace on a chosen day.

Imperial physicians were sent to treat the injured young men and women in each family, and the medicines and money spent were funded by the palace.

Finally, Wang Fu personally led the judge to the Regent's Palace to visit Xiao Churan who was poisoned and unconscious, and brought the imperial decree for him to rest for three months.

During the entire court meeting, the obvious beneficiary was the Sixth Prince Xiao Hengguang. All the ministers could not help but sigh that the Sixth Prince was truly favored by the Emperor!

Somewhere outside the palace, the Fourth Prince, who had lost an arm, smashed porcelain piece after porcelain piece.

"Shangguan Lingyun is such an idiot. How did being a consort humiliate him that he dared to lay hands on the princess?

And what is Xiao Churan, this mad dog, doing in the Princess's Mansion? Damn it, who is plotting against me? "
