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

In the imperial study room.

An attendant in embroidered robes stood in front of the imperial desk with his head bowed.

The emperor's face darkened. "Did someone from Xili really sneak into the fourth master's residence and enter his study?"

"Yes, it was seen with one's own eyes by the person who was ordered to follow." The envoy in embroidered clothes replied.

The emperor said nothing more, but he and the embroidered robe envoy in front of him understood it very well.

Given the alertness of the guards at Prince Jing's Mansion, it would be impossible for others to sneak into his residence without making any noise unless they deliberately let someone in, let alone the important study.

"So, the fourth brother has private dealings with the Xili Kingdom?" The emperor's face was full of emotion.

The embroidered robes envoy bowed and said, "I dare not make random guesses, I will only report what I have seen and heard."

"Have the people and things been found?" asked the emperor.

"Since entering Prince Jing's Mansion, he has not come out again." The Embroidered Uniform Envoy said, "If the Embroidered Uniform Envoy does not even approach the study, he will be discovered, so he cannot search secretly."

"Hmm..." The emperor nodded.

How could a person from Xili sneak into the study room which even the Embroidered Uniform Envoy could not approach without making any noise?

So, it was the fourth brother who let it go.

Why did the fourth brother let the people from Xili in?

The emperor did not want to search the fourth son's house, as it would hurt his face and damage the relationship between father and son.

But if he didn't get to the bottom of this matter, he would always feel uneasy.

What's more, the Embroidered Uniform Envoy said that the betrothal gift sent out today was the only thing that left Prince Jing's Mansion and could not be checked.

Maybe the Xili man and the letter and other things are hidden in the betrothal gifts.

If the search of the study yields results, there is no need to search for the betrothal gifts.

Take him directly back to the palace, detain him, and search him slowly.

If no suspicious points are found in the study, the betrothal gifts will also be checked.

Therefore, although the imperial guards stopped the betrothal gifts in the street, they did not take direct action.

The Emperor is waiting.

A guard came in hurriedly, "Your Majesty, we found nothing in the study of Prince Jing's mansion."

The emperor had a complicated expression for a moment.

Should he be happy or disappointed?

"Your Majesty, Prince Jing requests to see you." The eunuch also said outside the palace gate.

The emperor frowned. The fourth brother was still as straightforward as ever!

If it were someone else, no matter if there was anything wrong or not, they would be extremely nervous and cautious at this moment.

He, on the other hand, ran straight to the palace and confronted his biological father.

"No." The emperor waved his hand.

"Father, I have brought you what you are looking for! Please have a look!" Chu Yanchen's powerful voice seemed to contain strong internal strength, which spread far into the hall.

The emperor immediately looked at the embroidered uniform envoy, "Did he notice your previous actions?"

The embroidered clothes envoy quickly shook his head, "Probably not."

"Have Song Yanzhou's people had any contact with him recently?" the emperor asked again.

"Your Majesty, no." The Embroidered Uniform Envoy said confidently.

The emperor nodded and said, "You leave first."

The embroidered robes envoy bowed and retreated.

The emperor then called Chu Yanchen in.

Chu Yanchen held a stack of letters in one hand and a person in the other.

Looking at the man's facial features, he has deep eye sockets and a high nose bridge, and he looks very much like Xiliren.

"Father asked someone to search my study. I thought about it and thought they were looking for these things and this person, right?"

Chu Yanchen's expression was calm, not angry at all, "I figured it out, you don't have to bother looking for it, I'll just bring it to you."

Xiliren, who was kneeling on the ground, had a pale face and a forbearing expression, although his clothes were clean.

But there was a faint smell of blood on his body, which must have been tortured.

"Present it." The emperor looked at the stack of letters.

He Hongxi hurried forward, took the letter from Chu Yanchen's hand, and placed it on the imperial desk.

He opened the letter and spread it out before the emperor.

The emperor read the letters one by one. His expression was first shocked and bewildered, then calm, and finally enlightenment.

"Did you find out during the interrogation?" The emperor looked at the man kneeling on the ground, trembling with pain all over his body, "Who sent him?"

"He was very stubborn and tried to commit suicide several times, but was stopped." Chu Yanchen said, "I wanted to wait for the results of the interrogation before reporting to the emperor."

"But seeing that this will delay my son's life, I have no choice but to report it to the emperor before the truth is revealed."

The emperor looked at the kneeling man and then at the letter in his hand.

These letters were written from a prince of Xili Kingdom to Chu Yanchen.

From the tone of the letter, it can be seen that the two were plotting something big.

After Chu Yanchen's wedding, the other party will take advantage of the opportunity of the two states to establish a city and trade to attack Beili and help Chu Yanchen regain control of the military power.

When Chu Yanchen has his army in hand, the other side will send people to stir up trouble in Kyoto.

This gave Chu Yanchen an excuse to lead his troops back to Kyoto and seize the throne in one fell swoop.

It is also stamped with the personal seal of the prince of Xili Kingdom.

The emperor read the letter and then looked at Chu Yanchen.

Chu Yanchen was open and honest and allowed his father to look at him.

"It's just right. The envoy from Xili has not left the capital yet. Summon the envoy from Feng." the emperor ordered.

Feng Hao is packing his luggage.

Although their mission encountered some twists and turns, it was accomplished.

Emperor Beili agreed to establish a trade market on the border.

The bird-taming master they sent to settle the matter with Princess Yuqing has been escorted by the people of Beili to Kyoto.

The thousand fine horses they sent out have already arrived at Beili's pasture.

They can return home with the imperial edict approved by Emperor Beili.

Emperor Beili suddenly summoned him at this time, and Feng Hao was a little unsure what was going on.

He came to the emperor's study and was stunned when he saw the pale-faced man kneeling on the ground.

"Sir Feng, do you know him?" He Hongxi did not miss the expression of surprise on his face.

"I don't know him," Feng Hao explained after greeting him. "I just saw that he looked like a Xili person, so I was surprised. Did he commit a crime?"

Chu Yanchen continued, "Why don't you ask him yourself, Lord Feng?"

Feng Hao thought for a moment and asked the man in pure Xili Mandarin.

But the man lowered his head and said nothing.

Feng Hao frowned and said a few more words, but the man still didn't respond.

Feng Hao suddenly curled his lips and said in Beili Mandarin, "You don't understand Xili language, right?"

The man looked a little flustered, but still kept his head down and said nothing.

Feng Hao quickly bowed to the emperor and said, "Although this man looks like a Xili person, I'm afraid he has lived in Beili since he was a child. He doesn't even understand the Xili language, so he is definitely not a Xili person."

"Your Majesty, please understand. If he has committed any crime, it has nothing to do with Xili!"

The emperor asked He Hongxi to hand him the letter and said, "Take a look at this again."

Feng Hao took a quick look and was shocked, "The eldest prince?"

The emperor raised his eyebrows and stared at Feng Hao's expression.

Feng Hao read the letters one by one, his face becoming more and more gloomy, but when he stared at the vermilion seal on the letter, he suddenly smiled.

"This letter is a forgery." Feng Hao said confidently, "This seal is the seal that the eldest prince used to write letters to his family members."

"The eldest prince has several private seals. Although they look very similar, they each have a unique mark. This is to prevent someone with ulterior motives from stealing his private seals."

Feng Hao said this and took out a letter from his sleeve.

"This is a private letter from the eldest prince to me. It is also stamped with the eldest prince's seal. Your Majesty, please take a look."
