The legitimate daughter is reborn and cannot escape after being provoked by the tyrant

Chapter 1157: Taking this opportunity, we cleaned up together

Old Man Lin and Zhou Chen were both chosen by Mo Xiao as regents. During Mo Xiao's absence, they assisted Crown Prince Mo Chengning in stabilizing the court.

Mo Chengning was criticized for his background, and Old Man Lin felt that the man was too bored to bully a child, but there was nothing he could do. Seeing that the prince was about to be annoyed by the old man, Old Man Lin quickly asked Zhou Chen to call for help to prevent the matter from getting out of hand.

But just as he left for the Ministry of Revenue, something happened here. In such a short time, the old man was beheaded.

Old Man Lin grabbed Zhou Chen's arm and asked unhappily, "The young prince is young and hot-tempered. Why don't you try to persuade him? He just took over the throne and someone died. I'm afraid it's not good for his reputation."

Zhou Chen shook off Old Man Lin's hand in annoyance: "Do you think I don't know this?"

Old Man Lin: "Then why don't you try to persuade him?"

"Isn't it your fault? If you hadn't asked me to go get help, how could this have happened?"

"……What do you mean?"

Zhou Chen took a deep breath and said unhappily, "Our little prince is more patient than expected. Even when he was very angry, he never did anything excessive. He was always tolerating that old man."

Old Man Lin was puzzled: "Why is that person gone?"

"You asked me to call for reinforcements," Zhou Chen raised his hand and rubbed his brow, and said softly, "She said that the old man disobeyed the order and insulted the prince, so she ordered people to drag him out and chop him up. By now, the body has probably been sent back home, and she also left a message, considering that the old man has served the court for so many years, she will let him go and not pursue his family."

Old Man Lin: “…”

The two looked at each other for a long time before they asked suspiciously, "Does she have such great power?"

Zhou Chen sneered and pointed to the Yinghua Palace behind him: "You can try and see if you can command these imperial guards."

Old Man Lin twitched his lips and said, "Are you confused? Apart from His Majesty and the Crown Prince, who else can command these people?"

Zhou Chen: "But they obey the orders of the Concubine Chen."

Old Man Lin: “…”

Zhou Chen added: "Your Majesty has a group of secret guards around him. We have only heard of them but never seen them, right? But the Empress Chen can still command the secret guards."

Old Man Lin's eyelids jumped, and he immediately patted his chest and muttered softly: "Fortunately, fortunately, I didn't offend her too badly."

He did some foolish things for his daughter. Now it seems that he is blessed to be still alive.

Zhou Chen said sarcastically: "Luckily, that Concubine Chen is not a petty person, otherwise you would not know how you died."

Old Man Lin rubbed his brows and said, "Let's not talk about that anymore. Let's talk about the present first... Now that the person is gone, how should we deal with it?"

Zhou Chen was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "The Concubine is right, the young prince's background cannot be criticized. That old man, let him die, it's just right to kill the chicken to scare the monkey."

"Didn't the Concubine Chen say that he disobeyed the Emperor's order?" Zhou Chen said slowly. "Disobeying the Emperor's order is a capital crime. What is there to say?"

He looked at Old Man Lin and said slowly, "It's just right. Look at how many people like him there are in the court. They are thinking of driving our little prince out of that position and causing us some trouble when His Majesty is away. It's just the right opportunity to clean them up together."
