Reborn to be replaced? Remarried to the royal palace, raising children and training husband

The man in black robes did not take the flattery of his staff to heart. As if he suddenly thought of something, his words suddenly changed, and a few traces of coldness suddenly flashed in his eyes:

"Bai Yujing was captured this time because of that Princess Duan?"

"That's right... It is said that Princess Duan happened to go to visit the old Princess Duan, and she happened to run into them..."

The man in black robe narrowed his eyes slightly, and a hint of sarcasm flashed in his eyes.

Bai Yujing suffered a great loss at the hands of Princess Duan the first time! And this time, he was defeated by her again...

How could this be just a coincidence?

Thinking back to the last time he was tricked by Marquis Dingyuan, he thought carefully and felt that there must be something fishy going on.

Marquis Dingyuan is just a declining marquisate, and has long been unable to continue to inherit the title!

Over the years, Marquis Dingyuan has been running around but has accomplished nothing. This shows that his ability is limited. How could he have such wisdom to fool me?

Although I guessed that Marquis Dingyuan must have had some expert guidance, I never associated this person with the Princess Duan.

But now...

"Great! I didn't even know that there was such an interesting woman hidden in the capital! Go and investigate the details of this Princess Duan immediately. We must not let her get away with it every time!"

"As ordered!"

The next morning, the whole government and the public were shocked as if a blockbuster bomb had been dropped!

The powerful general Dongfang Minxu, who was in charge of the Western Expedition, actually escorted the once powerful Bai Yujing before the emperor!

Dongfang Minxu even exposed Bai Yujing's crime of betraying the country and his evil deeds of killing many monks in Rong'en Temple! The corpses were everywhere in Rong'en Temple, which was a horrible sight!

The land dyed red with blood was like a sad and beautiful picture of war, and even the heavy rain could not wash it away!

In order to cover up this crime, Bai Yujing brutally hunted down Princess Lao Duan in an attempt to silence her!

As everyone knows, Dongfang Minxu's six sons all died at the hands of Beizhai people. This time Bai Yujing actually dared to collude with Beizhai. Dongfang Minxu will definitely bite Bai Yujing like a mad dog!

Therefore, no one in the court dared to defend Bai Yujing, and instead everyone tried to add insult to injury.

The emperor was furious and immediately ordered Bai Yujing to be thrown into the Tianlao. The three judges held a joint trial to find out whether Bai Yujing had any accomplices!

In addition, the entire Bai family was also raided, and all of them, young and old, were thrown into prison, awaiting their fate of being beheaded!

In the court, some ministers took the opportunity to point the finger at the Ninth Prince, accusing him of being related to the Bai family.

The Ninth Prince tried his best to defend himself. After all, there was no solid evidence for this matter, so it could not stand up.

Although the emperor did not implicate the Ninth Prince in this matter, he gave him the supervisory position of this year's spring examination, which was originally scheduled to be held by the Ninth Prince, and called it training.

However, as everyone knows, the Ninth Prince has always been a playboy, so what is the point of training him?

The emperor's action undoubtedly showed that he still had doubts about the Ninth Prince, but he was temporarily forbearing in order to maintain the face of the royal family.

The Ninth Prince was wrongly accused, but he was unable to clear his name...

However, at this moment, Bai Yujing, who was imprisoned in Tianlao, committed suicide out of fear of punishment!

Before Bai Yujing committed suicide, he left a letter written in blood, which put the Ninth Prince in an even more difficult situation where he could not defend himself.

"What exactly was written in that blood letter?"

At this time, in the flower hall of Prince Duan's Mansion, Xiang Zhu was pouring tea carefully, while looking curiously at Jiang Boyi who was lazily leaning on the armchair, and asked.

Jiang Boyi glanced at the overflowing tea in the teacup, waved his folding fan helplessly, lightly touched Xiang Zhu's hand, and said with a smile:

"You little girl, don't you know the principle of 'when the tea is full, the guests are driven away'?"

Facing Jiang Boyi's reproach, Xiang Zhu showed no shame at all, but instead retorted with confidence:

"Master, how can you be considered a guest in front of our young lady? How could I not know the etiquette? On the contrary, you kept it half and half, deliberately keeping it in suspense. This is not what a gentleman does."

Gu Qinlan leaned on the elegant chair with a faint smile on her lips. She gently placed the cup of fragrant tea poured by Xiang Zhu on the folding fan that Jiang Boyi was gently waving, and there was no lack of concern in her words:

"Cousin, why do you have to be so mysterious? If you really anger this little girl, it will be difficult for me to control her."

Jiang Boyi smacked his lips lightly, his gaze lingering on Gu Qinlan for a moment before he slowly closed the folding fan.

Then, he gently pushed open the folding fan on the plate, leaned in to take a sip of the fragrant tea, and narrated leisurely:

"The blood-stained scroll clearly states: Your Highness the Ninth Prince has nothing to do with the act of treason and collusion with the enemy. The entire responsibility lies with me alone! I am so ashamed that I can only die to atone for my crime!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Qinlan paused for a moment, frowning and asking in confusion, "Has he passed away?"

"That's right. It's a pity that I was a step late, otherwise I might have been able to stop it in time. It's all because of the emperor who kept pestering me and didn't want to let me go..."

Jiang Boyi shook his head helplessly. The emperor had repeatedly wanted to bring him into the court. If it weren't for Gu Qinlan, he would never have set foot in the palace.

After all, if he was absent, everyone's attention would turn to Gu Qinlan.

Zheng Dinglian is already in the midst of a precarious political situation. If he were to marry a princess with extraordinary talent at this time, there would probably be no peace in the palace!

As the old saying goes, if a tree stands out in the forest, the wind will surely destroy it. Then Gu Qinlan will surely become the target of public criticism!

As the fight for the throne intensifies, forces from all sides are surging, and people's hearts are treacherous. If you are involved, it will be very dangerous!

It would be better to let him bear it alone. After all, everyone knows that he is lazy. This way, the danger may be reduced a little.

I just used the gold medal bestowed by the emperor. If I were discovered, I would be hard pressed to escape unscathed...

When Gu Qinlan heard this, his face became solemn, his eyes were as deep as the sea, and he spoke slowly:

"Bai Yujing's move, on the surface, seems to be to clear the Ninth Prince of suspicion, but in fact it has deepened people's suspicion of the Ninth Prince. Even if the Ninth Prince has a thousand mouths, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to clear himself. It seems..."

Gu Qinlan paused for a moment, a sharp look in his eyes:

"The mastermind behind Baiyujing is not the Ninth Prince."

"Indeed, this person is ruthless and decisive. Once he found out that Bai Yujing was arrested, he took immediate action and even threw dirty water on the Ninth Prince. He is extremely cunning."

When Jiang Boyi said this, he slumped down in his chair, glancing at Gu Qinlan:

"Even though the outside world has not yet implicated you in this matter, the person behind the scenes must know it very well. Do you think he will let you off easily?"

"In my opinion, it would be better for you to ask Prince Duan's Mansion to grant you a divorce letter now, and I will accompany you back to your grandparents' home. At least there, those greedy hands can't touch you."

After hearing this, Gu Qinlan smiled indifferently, then stood up, looked at Jiang Boyi with a gentle gaze, and said slowly:

"Cousin, you know deep down that even if I return to my grandfather's house, those forces will not give up. On the contrary, they may even affect my grandfather's family and implicate them."

"I know my cousin has good intentions, but now that we have stepped into this muddy water, we can't wash off the mud easily."
