Reborn as a concubine's sister, the eldest lady went crazy

"No... I thought the matter was over and Miss Wu had already left. If I tell Dad, he would be angry again."

The emperor moved his butt slightly further into his seat. He had learned everything from Wu Xueyan, and now he naturally knew whether she was lying or not, so he felt better. It seemed that Xu Yiyan was just as straightforward as Xu Xianshan.

"Your Majesty! I know that Yuling can mobilize the eight gates in the capital, so how could I give it to an outsider! Besides, that token has been eliminated. If I want to give it, why should I give it to that person?" Wu Jinsong still wanted the emperor to review the matter again, but the emperor could no longer listen.

People are like this. After hearing what they want to hear, their prejudice will become stronger and stronger. The emperor now knows that the Xu family father and daughter have not lied to him, so he will be more angry about teasing his second son.

He knew his second son was not stupid, but why didn't he understand what he meant yesterday? I told him not to do it, why did you insist on disobeying me?

What's more, the method he used was still so unbearable, which really disappointed me. Could it be that he thought that as long as Wu Xueyan died, all the things would be gone without evidence?

"Okay, I have figured out the matter, you can go back now."

"What about my sister?" Wu Jinsong was indeed a little anxious. He could blurt out the question in front of His Majesty, which made Eunuch Kang frown.

"Master Xiao Wu, your sister is a key witness in the case. Now that things are not over, she is naturally where she belongs."

"Yes, I have spoken out of turn. I will take my leave."

When Wu Jinsong went out and caught up with Xu Yixing, he saw her chatting and laughing with another person.

"Greetings to His Majesty the Fourth Prince." Wu Jinsong suppressed his anger and took a few steps forward to pay his respects.

"No thanks." The fourth prince looked at the two of them and had already figured out the situation. "It seems that the emperor has met a lot of people today, you two, your sister, your father, and now it's my turn."

Wu Songjin didn't know why the Fourth Prince was also involved, but Xu Yixing seemed to understand. Could the assassin last night be his man?

It's really exciting and thrilling. No wonder the emperor asked so many people to confirm it. It turns out that it was the Fourth Prince who took action.

A magical game, a magical game!

Xu Yixing was so happy that he ignored Wu Songjin's harassment and rode back to the Prince's Mansion at full speed. It was just the right time to have lunch!

The atmosphere at the dinner table was completely different from that in the palace. Xu Yixing took off her palace dress, washed her face beautifully, and then started to eat her meal with big mouthfuls.

It looks like he hasn't eaten for ten days.

"What's wrong with you? You seem to have fled from famine after entering the palace."

"I just feel sorry for you."

"Feeling sorry for me?" Lu Anyuan pointed at himself in disbelief, not understanding.

"They say that being with a king is like being with a tiger. Today I finally understand. It's really scary to talk to your father. Anyway, I'm under a lot of pressure."

Lu Anyuan laughed out loud: "Okay, so what did you gain today?"

"Well... it was the Fourth Prince who did it last night. The Emperor had always thought that the Second Prince was evil and would kill to silence the witnesses, so he set up a trap to lure him in. He didn't expect that he would take the bait. The Emperor must have thought that it was the Second Prince who ordered his brother to do it, so he called a lot of people to confirm it today."

"Well. Then who do you think asked Fourth Brother to do it?"

"Huh? Didn't the Fourth Prince do it himself? Just like the last time in the outer palace, he framed the Second Prince."

Lu Anyuan shook his head. This situation was indeed very complicated. Yixing still didn't see through it. "But if no one asked him to do it, it would be a false accusation. My fourth brother is not stupid."

"Uh..." Xu Yixing put down his chopsticks and thought about Lu Anyuan's words. Even if the Fourth Prince did it himself, he would definitely create someone to "issue the order". Otherwise, the Emperor would not be able to find this person, and it would be easy to bring trouble upon himself.

"Who is it? It can't be you, right?"

"How is that possible? I've been working on our plan, so how could I have the energy to give it to him?" Lu Anyuan sneered. She was so sad that Yixing actually felt that he was hiding this from her.

"Well, then I can't think of it." If it's not the Second Prince, not Concubine Ying, and not Lu Anyuan, who else could it be?

"He's Lu Ziming's father." The answer was revealed. Lu Anyuan looked normal, but Xu Yixing took a long time to think about who Lu Ziming was.

"Military Advisor Lu? The eldest prince's men? Arranged by the eldest prince?"

"Stop, I only mentioned Advisor Lu, not my elder brother."

"He would do something behind the eldest prince's back? I don't believe it!"

"Madam, everyone has selfish motives. Military Advisor Lu is just following my eldest brother's lead, not selling out to him. Naturally, he has his own thoughts."

"It's for his son... But how did you know?" Xu Yixing now admires this military advisor Lu very much. Just like Lu Anyuan said, he took action when everyone else was taking action, hiding himself and killing two birds with one stone. How smart.

"My fourth brother wrote to me this morning after you left."

"Do you believe it? And why would they tell you?" Xu Yixing didn't believe it. How could he tell such a thing to others?

"It's already been burned. He told me because the condition we discussed before was that he would help me deal with my second brother, so naturally he had to tell me."

Xu Yixing stared at Lu Anyuan for a long time, but could not see any signs of lying.

So in this situation, the emperor and his family won.

The emperor disrupted his original plan, resulting in Ying Wu being unable to replace Wu Xueyan, but he almost replicated a plan identical to his own, so the emperor caught the assassin, who was the Fourth Prince's man.

The Fourth Prince would definitely deny it again and again, and finally he would burst into tears and say that it was the Second Prince who ordered him to do so, and that he helped him out of brotherly love.

The emperor then continued to investigate and was able to find the so-called "complete chain of evidence", because the scheme set up by Military Advisor Lu and the Fourth Prince must be perfect.

The result is that the Second Prince deceived the emperor and lost his favor; Wu Xueyan's lawsuit was successful, but she will definitely not be able to stay in Kyoto; the Fourth Prince may be suppressed by Concubine Ying in the short term, but in the long run, he will definitely have one less strong enemy; as for Military Advisor Lu, he must have thought that no one knew what he was doing, but he used the Fourth Prince as a knife, and he would definitely be retaliated against.

So he and Lu Anyuan had one less enemy and one more temporary ally; the emperor gained his ministers and sons, whom he considered loyal and reliable, and everyone was happy.

Well, well, well, Xu Yixing started laughing wildly, and only stopped when his stomach hurt. In this way, his plans were just the so-called fuse. The process of things was not at all what he expected, but the result was exactly what he wanted.

Is this what it feels like to play tricks on the royal family?
