After the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion was reborn, she divorced and married the prince!

The emperor looked at the third prince with cold eyes.

When the third prince met his father's gaze, his heart trembled.

He said aggrievedly, "Really! Father, you have to believe me! I was really tricked!"

"You were tricked?" The emperor snorted. "So, you didn't come here by yourself. You were knocked unconscious and carried here?"

Upon hearing this, the Third Prince broke out in a cold sweat.

He came here on his own, but he didn't expect that he would be knocked down here and blocked by his father.

"Yes... I came here by myself. Pei Yuqing wrote to me, saying... that she and my driver were plotted against. She remembered some details and hoped to meet me and tell me the details!" The third prince said anxiously, "I also think it is strange that the driver would appear in the side hall, so I came here."

Before the emperor opened his mouth, He Hongxi exclaimed "Huh?"

The emperor looked at him sideways.

He Hongxi bowed quickly and said, "I just find it strange that Pei Ji has always had someone around her since she came here from the prison. It was not until nightfall that she wanted to take a bath and rest, and then she drove the people around her away."

"When and how did she send the message to the Third Prince?"

The emperor raised his eyebrows and looked at the third prince, seemingly patiently waiting for his explanation.

The imperial physician standing by, although bowing slightly, looked at the Third Prince with a slightly indignant look in his eyes.

The third prince tried to do something wrong and was knocked unconscious, but was even slandered for his poor medical skills?

He makes his living by his medical skills! The Third Prince is going to destroy his bowl!

He wanted to hear how the Third Prince would make up for his words.

"She, she tamed the birds and used them to deliver the notes." said the third prince.

"The eagle she brought has been confiscated. Are you saying that she also has a private carrier eagle?" asked the emperor.

At this point, the Third Prince hastily confessed, "She said that she was the best at taming birds, and she tamed a sparrow, a very common sparrow."

"Because when delivering a note in Kyoto, it doesn't matter how fast or high the bird flies. The most important thing is to not attract attention."

The emperor's expression became colder and colder. "You know her very well."

The Third Prince's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly knelt down and kowtowed, "Father, please understand. I really want to find out about the driver's matter, and I have no other intentions."

"As soon as I saw Pei Yuqing, I was drugged and knocked unconscious... When I woke up, I saw you, my father!"

"I have figured it out now. I was tricked by someone! Maybe... maybe Pei Yuqing teamed up with that person to trick me!"

In a state of desperation, the Third Prince was not sure whether he was simply trying to protect himself or whether he really suspected Pei Yuqing.

He finished speaking in a hurry, and the room was silent.

"Pei Yuqing plotted against you? Why?" The emperor looked at the third prince with increasingly disappointed eyes, "What grudge do you have with her?"

The third prince was about to explain.

But the emperor continued, "Can you let her use her own life to plot against you?"

The third prince was stunned when he heard this.

Use your own...life?

He turned around and looked at the woman on the bed. Her skin was white, her eyes were closed, and her lips were rosy, as if she was asleep.

But my father said, she is dead?

The third prince couldn't believe it, and he couldn't help but reach out to feel Pei Yuqing's breath.

"hiss……"

"She's dead? How did she die?"

Isn't that a drug that makes you sleepless? How could Pei Yuqing die when he didn't die?

Just as the Third Prince was about to recall it carefully, his head ached so much that he gasped. He couldn't help but raise his hand to touch his head.

There was a big bump on his head. He was too nervous to feel it just now, but when he touched it with his hand, it was extremely painful.

"Tell him how Pei Yuqing died." The emperor said to the imperial physician.

The imperial physician was already resentful of the third prince for wanting to destroy his job.

Hearing this, he cleared his throat and said in the most determined tone, "Peggy was overly stimulated and emotionally excited, and died of a sudden heart attack!"

The third prince widened his eyes.

Emotional agitation? Sudden heart attack?

Did Pei Yuqing die by himself?

What does that have to do with him? Why is his father looking at him with disappointment and resentment?

The Third Prince glanced and saw himself and Pei Yuqing in disheveled clothes.

In a flash, he understood -

"Father! I have been framed!"

"That person first drugged me unconscious, then provoked Pei Yuqing to death, and then staged this drama!"

"It's just to frame me! The note I received might not be from Pei Yuqing at all, but that person deliberately led me here!"

The third prince kowtowed and cried bitterly.

"Please enlighten me, Father!"

"That's right! That person might not have left yet! That person might be in the palace!"

"Please ask Father to order a search! To see if that person is still there and if he left any clues!"

Behind the rockery.

Molan's breathing paused.

She has great confidence in Nanxing's medicine.

She believed that other doctors would not be able to see the clues.

But if the Emperor wants to search the palace now... they are in this courtyard.

Whether I run or not now, I will be discovered, right?

Molan glared at Ling Feng fiercely.

If he hadn't stopped her, she might have escaped just now!

Now we won’t be trapped here!

But the night was too dark, and the place where they were hiding was pitch black.

Ling Feng didn't see her sharp eyes.

Ling Feng heard her breathing hitch and thought she was just nervous.

He whispered in her ear, "Don't be afraid, we won't search."

The breath of his voice made Molan's ears itch.

If it weren't for the current situation, she would have punched him in the nose.

Now he could only stay still and hide his breath.

"Searching the palace?" The emperor sneered, "You don't feel ashamed, but I do."

"The person is already dead..."

The emperor looked at Pei Yuqing's face.

She had stopped breathing and her heart was no longer beating, but her charming appearance still made people's hearts beat wildly.

What a pity.

"I won't pursue Pei Ji's matter."

"As for the Third Prince..."

The emperor's eyes fell on the third prince.

There were tears and grievance in the third prince's eyes.

"You avoided the palace guards and quietly sneaked into Pei Ji's room... What do you want to do?"

"When you did these things, did you have me, your father, in your heart?"

The emperor's voice was not loud, and one could not even hear much anger in it.

But the third prince's heart suddenly panicked.

"Father...I was wrong. I know I was wrong! I was just confused for a moment!"

The third prince rushed over and hugged the emperor's legs.

The emperor tried to shake him off, but failed. "Go to the clan house and reflect on your mistakes. Think about it carefully."

"Father! Please don't...I really know I'm wrong! Please have mercy!" The third prince burst into tears.

"He Hongxi!" the emperor frowned.

He Hongxi immediately stepped forward and pulled the third prince away.

The emperor strode out of the room.

He stood on the porch, looking at the thick, impermeable night in the yard.

Not just what you're looking at, but what you're thinking about.

The two people behind the rockery didn't move at all, not even daring to breathe.

"emperor?"

"Go back to the palace."

"Then Paige..."

"Give him a coffin and find a place to bury him." The emperor paused and said, "After the burial, send someone to tell their envoys."

"This matter ends here."

He Hongxi bowed quickly, "Yes!"

The footsteps gradually faded away.

The two people behind the rockery were completely frozen.

"do not move……"
