Qianqianjie, kidnap a reborn prince back to the modern era
Chapter 303 It’s your own fault
Emperor Xiling looked at the Fifth Princess, who was kneeling on the ground, either frightened or pretending to be crazy, and gave orders to the guards around him.
"Go and bring all the maids around the Fifth Princess here."
Several people responded and left.
After a while, four more palace maids were thrown into the hall, all of them trembling all over.
"Tell me! If anyone knows that the Fifth Princess plotted to murder the Princess Nanqi, confess now and you can be exempted from the crime of killing all nine clans. Otherwise, once the truth is found, all those involved will be punished with the heavy crime of killing all nine clans."
Emperor Xiling's voice was so cold and cruel that the palace maids kneeling on the ground huddled together in fear.
They all have parents, brothers and sisters. They were sold to the palace to work and could provide some income to their families. However, if their entire clan were to be executed, they could not afford to be the sinners of the clan.
Although they don't have many relatives, the feeling of guilt is not something that little girls like them can bear.
After a moment of silence, a man knelt down and crawled forward.
"Your Majesty, I know something."
"Say!"
"I know that the Fifth Princess has murderous intentions towards the Grand Duchess of Nanqi, and has said several times that she wants the Grand Duchess dead."
"I know that, too."
"I heard it too."
As soon as one person spoke, several people knelt down and rushed forward, vying to testify.
Ling Lu didn't bother to defend herself, she knelt down and crawled to King Ji's feet.
"Third brother saved me. I was just jealous that she was loved by all of you. I, I, I know I was wrong."
"You can't do this alone. Who else is helping you?"
Qiao Mu asked coldly.
"I, I, have, have..."
She looked around and didn't see any familiar figures in the tent, feeling a little disappointed.
"Say!"
The deep and cold voice of Emperor Xi Ling exploded in her ears.
"Yes Yes......"
The sound stopped suddenly.
Ling Lu opened her eyes incredibly wide, tears in her eyes seemed to be about to fall, her lips were pursed into a round shape, but no sound came out, and a cold sword seemed to be stabbed into her heart.
She grabbed the sword and looked at her brother in disbelief, thinking that he was the only one who could save her, and she reluctantly slid to his feet.
"King Ji, you are so brave that you dare to kill someone in public!"
Emperor Xi Ling was shocked by the scene before him.
He knew how much Ling Ji doted on his sister.
"His Majesty!"
Ling Ji quickly took a step forward and knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty, I have seen clearly that Princess Nanqi was killed because of the jealousy of the Fifth Princess. I am her biological brother, so I naturally cannot forgive her. Just think of it as her paying for the life of the Princess. A life for a life is what should be paid. I will explain to Concubine Gu."
He had to kill his own sister first. If he uttered the word "Gu", he and the Gu family would be completely finished.
His sister deserved to die. She had caused such a big disaster, but she deserved to die if she could exchange her life for the safety of the Gu family.
"Your Majesty, the real murderer has been brought to justice. This is our Xiling Kingdom's fault. Now let's discuss how to compensate Nan Qi."
Prime Minister Gu didn't even look at his granddaughter who was lying dead on the ground.
It is really frustrating that the wealth, lives and bright future of the entire Gu family are being implicated by such an ignorant fool.
"The real murderer has been brought to justice. Isn't this conclusion too quick?"
Qiao Mu glanced coldly at the people in the big tent with a playful smile on his lips.
"Master Qiao, killing is not enough. The Fifth Princess of Xiling has already paid with her life to Princess Nanqi. What else do you want? Besides, Princess Nanqi has been rescued and is not dead!"
Ling Ji argued with reason.
He was in agony at the thought of killing his own sister with his own hands.
"Is this a matter of life or death for the victim? It was Xiling who provoked Nanqi and murdered the Nanqi envoy. He ignored the chaos between the two countries and deliberately provoked a war between the two countries. He did not investigate the matter thoroughly and let the real culprit go. The envoys of our two countries are still here. How can their safety be protected?"
Cangyu slammed the table, and the tent, which had just become tense, suddenly fell silent.
"I agree with Emperor Dong Cang's statement. It is not something a mere woman can do to trigger a beast tide to murder a princess. I believe everyone knows this, and we must investigate further."
Emperor Xi Ling expressed his attitude, making the situation serious again.
The Xiling officials who wanted to use the death of the Fifth Princess of Xiling as an excuse to keep the peace now shut up, failed to see the situation clearly and did not bring themselves to provoke trouble.
"What else is there to check? The person is dead and there is no evidence."
Minister Xie mustered up his courage and had to continue to support Prime Minister Gu's opinion.
Now that he's on the pirate ship, he can't get off, right?
“Aren’t there still people alive here?”
Yang Chengen pointed at several palace maids who were already frightened silly on the ground.
"Also, Minister Xie, we still have witnesses who haven't arrived yet. Why are you so anxious?"
"Bring witnesses."
His voice became more and more steadfast. This battle was for the goddess in his heart, as if it was divine help.
There was a commotion outside the big tent.
A woman in a brocade dress was pushed in. Her face was already wet with tears and she looked haggard.
"Fuer, why is it you? Didn't I ask you to go back home?"
Minister Xie's face was full of surprise.
Why is there still this damn daughter thing?
What was she involved in?
How many people are involved?
"Daddy, save me!"
Xie Fu tried to crawl to Shangshu Xie's feet, but was stopped by a guard and pushed down.
She doesn't know what's going on either!
After the accident, Daddy arranged for a servant to take her home. Just as they arrived outside the Moorish city, they were interrupted by the sound of hurried horse hooves.
The servant's kung fu was too weak. Within two rounds, his horse turned around and rushed straight to the hunting ground. She didn't know what was going on!
"Your Majesties, we should start from the beginning. Although the fifth princess is dead, her companions and maids are still alive. Their explanations will surely provide us with new clues, right?"
Qiao Mu looked at the woman kneeling on the ground at a loss, then at Shangshu Xie with a shocked face and Prime Minister Gu with a dark face, and a gleam of light flashed in his fox eyes.
Xie Fu was stunned.
The fifth princess is dead?
She looked at the person lying on the ground beside her in astonishment.
The fifth princess' eyes were wide open and lifeless, and blood was still flowing from her heart.
She screamed "Ah!" and almost fainted.
"Xie Fu, tell the truth. Tell me what you are asked. Otherwise, your fate will not be better than that of the fifth princess. Do you understand?"
Emperor Xi Ling spoke in a cold tone, which frightened Xie Fu so much that she fell to the ground.
"First, tell me about what you and the fifth princess discussed that day, and why the two of you had sex in the forest together?"
Cangyu asked, his tone leaving no room for doubt.
"What? The fifth princess also had sex with someone? With whom?"
The officials in the big tent were whispering.
That day, they all knew that Minister Xie's youngest daughter had done something scandalous with an unknown man. Could it be that she was also related to the murder of Princess Nanqi?
Xie Fu's body was trembling, her heart was conflicted, and she looked at her father.
Minister Xie was also stunned.
There was also the incident of the fifth princess that day, how could he not know about it?
"Say!"
A loud shout from above frightened her so much that she shivered and started talking involuntarily.
“That day, it was the Fifth Princess’ idea.
The Fifth Princess has always wanted to have something good happen with Emperor Dongcang, and she wanted to take the opportunity here to solidify her relationship with Emperor Dongcang.
But Emperor Dongcang, Prince Ji and Princess Nanqi were together all the time, so it was inconvenient for her to act. So she suggested that I lead Prince Ji away so that she could take Emperor Dongcang away.
So, we returned to the camp early that day, and it was the Fifth Princess who gave me that aphrodisiac powder.
I went to stop His Royal Highness Prince Ji first, and lied that my father asked me to tell Prince Ji that Prime Minister Gu wanted to see him.
King Ji and I left, and then we, that’s what happened in the woods over there.”
"If someone has something like that happen to you, don't make nonsense and blame others."
Ling Ji responded immediately.
He also didn't expect that this was also arranged by his sister, who actually colluded with others to plot against him.
"Yes, it was someone I didn't know. King Ji pushed me to a man I didn't know."
There were sighing sounds in the big tent. What was going on?
It's your own fault?!
