Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

For so many years, the Queen Mother always lacked confidence when facing Princess Ningyang.

In the eyes of outsiders, the Queen Mother is tolerant towards her because she estimates the identity of Princess Ningyang.

But only the Queen Mother and Princess Ningyang, the two parties involved, knew in their hearts that the Queen Mother was only willing to compromise and avoid her edge because she knew the temper of Princess Ningyang and was worried that she would expose her old background.

And Princess Ningyang looked down on the queen mother because she knew her background well.

Even though she has changed from shot to shot and become the empress dowager of the world, Princess Ningyang still has no false words for her.

This is the pride of being a royal princess.

Facing the furious Queen Mother, Princess Ningyang just curled her lips into a chuckle and looked contemptuously.

"Did I say something wrong? If there is, I hope the Empress Dowager will point it out."

The Empress Dowager's hand supporting the nanny couldn't help shaking, her face was pale and blue.

She is doing her best to maintain her dignity as queen mother.

"Queen Ji is tolerant and generous, she never takes those little things to heart, how can you, an outsider, have the right to gossip here?!"

Princess Ningyang slowly put away her smile, her tone of disgust was undisguised.

"I used to be close friends with Empress Ji, and I am very clear about her affairs.

Empress Ji really doesn't take you seriously, that's because she doesn't want to be as knowledgeable as a villain like you.

But who can think of it?

Her tolerance and generosity not only failed to repay your kindness, but made you worse. "

The queen mother laughed back angrily, mockingly.

"It's as if you are close to Empress Ji. If that's the case, why didn't you go with her when Empress Ji set herself on fire?"

Thinking of her deceased friend, Princess Ningyang's expression darkened.

When she learned of the tragic death of Empress Ji, Princess Ningyang was very sad, and she also fell seriously ill because of it.

But other than that, she couldn't do anything.

The case of the prince Li Shu is very involved, and whoever touches it will die.

Even if Ning Yang is a princess, she cannot intervene in the government affairs, let alone change the emperor's younger brother's decision.

She could only try her best to pretend that nothing happened, trying her best to keep the relationship between her family and the Prince's Mansion clear so as not to implicate her husband and children.

Between speaking up for her friends and protecting her family, Princess Ningyang chose the latter.

It is also because of this that Princess Ningyang has always felt that she owed Queen Ji, and felt very guilty.

And now.

Her husband has passed away, and her daughter has also married out.

Apart from herself, she is already alone, so what else should she worry about?

She was finally able to stand uprightly and speak out all the words that had been accumulated in her heart for many years.

"Empress Dowager, you don't need to irritate me with such words. The death of Empress Ji was so strange that year. I have always had doubts about this matter. Unfortunately, I have not been able to find conclusive evidence. Until yesterday, I saw Only one person knew the truth about Empress Ji's self-immolation."

A strong uneasiness welled up in the Empress Dowager's heart.

At this time, everyone present was looking at Princess Ningyang, wanting to know what the truth was in her mouth?

Princess Ningyang: "Come out."

A thin maid came out from behind her with her head bowed.

Under everyone's gaze, the maid slowly raised her head.

The queen mother looked at her face and felt it was very familiar, but she couldn't remember who she was for a while.

On the contrary, Li Ji recognized at a glance that this court lady was Mu Qing!

The court lady who used to secretly pay homage to Empress Ji in Chaoyang Palace caused rumors of ghosts in Chaoyang Palace and rescued Hua Manman by chance.

Later, Hua Manman was put under house arrest by King Wuzhang in Chaoyang Palace, and it was Mu Qing who rescued her and hid her in a secret passage.

After Hua Manman's "death", Mu Qing also disappeared and completely disappeared.

Li Ji originally thought that she had left Tianjing and started a new life incognito.

Unexpectedly, she would suddenly appear in front of everyone, and in such a special way.

Mu Qing first blessed Li Jifu, and then slowly opened her mouth, telling her own story.

"The maidservant was originally a maid from the Huanyi Bureau, but because she offended someone unfortunately, she was tortured and abused in every possible way.

The servant girl couldn't bear it any longer, and wanted to die, but was rescued by Empress Ji who happened to pass by.

Not only did Empress Ji ask the medical girl to heal the wounds of the servants, but she also ordered those palace servants who deliberately abused the servants to be punished.

Empress Ji is a good person, but it is a pity that good people are not rewarded.

First, Prince Li Shu was framed by others, and his family was ruined. Even Empress Ji was forced to burn herself to death in the palace. "

Princess Ningyang asked cooperatingly: "You said that Prince Li Shu was framed by someone? Is there any evidence?"

"Naturally! The slaves have been investigating secretly over the years, trying to collect evidence."

While talking, Mu Qing took out a stack of letters from her sleeve.

"The reason why Prince Li Shu was able to be convicted at the beginning was because Habayashi Wei found letters from the Prince's mansion that the Prince secretly colluded with courtiers and conspired to rebel.

However, in fact, those letters were forged by others.

The servant found the person who forged the letter, that person had already been silenced, and his study was also burned down.

The people behind the scenes thought that in this way, they could hide the truth from the sky, but the skynet was not leaking.

That man knew that he had done something to frame the prince, and he would surely be silenced in the end.

In order to save the lives of his family members, he deliberately left the box and gave it to his close friends for safekeeping.

This will also make the people behind the scenes have scruples, lest the other party rush to kill them all.

The servant girl found that friend and took a locked box from him.

There are many letters in the box.

In addition to the man's confession letter, there are several letters imitating Prince Li Shu's handwriting.

Its handwriting is exactly the same as that in the secret treason letter! "

Everyone immediately looked at the stack of letters in unison.

After obtaining the consent of Princess Ningyang, the left and right prime ministers respectively took two letters and read them carefully.

After they read the contents of the letter, the expressions on their faces became extremely complicated.

They have had contact with Prince Li Shu before, so they naturally know what Li Shu's handwriting is like.

The self in these two letters is exactly the same as Li Shu's self.

The queen mother was still struggling: "Nonsense! How can you know so many things like a little maid?!"

Mu Qing said neither humble nor overbearing.

"The servant is not just a maid, the servant is also a member of the Xuanjia Guard."

The original Xuanjia Guards were not an army, but the personal guards specially trained by Empress Ji for the prince.

Those who can be selected into Xuanjiawei are not necessarily those with high martial arts skills, and there are many ordinary people without martial arts among them.

And Mu Qing happened to be one of the chosen ones.

"After the death of Empress Ji, some of the Xuanjia guards were killed, but there are still many Xuanjia guards, like slaves, lurking incognito. Over the years, we have never given up investigating the truth."
