The legitimate daughter is reborn and the fake Bai Lian is completely panicked

The next day.

The news of Wen Yue's suicide in Yanjing prison soon reached the Shen residence.

In the Lanyue Courtyard, flowers, plants and insects are chirping.

Shen Mi sat in front of the window in a purple robe, looking at the chessboard in front of him.

The black piece took up more and more white pieces. She pinched the black piece and placed a piece in the center of the board.

After a while, Yun Lan opened the door and walked to Shen Mi's side.

"Miss, I just received news that the fourth Miss Wen died in the government office in Yanjing."

The black piece in his hand fell instantly, disrupting the chess pieces in front of Shen Mi.

She subconsciously raised her eyes to look at Yun Lan, "Dead?"

Yun Lan nodded, "I heard that she wrote a letter in blood and committed suicide."

"I also heard that Ningyuan Hou went to the East Palace last night."

"The maidservant beside the queen went to the government office in Yanjing."

Shen Mi took a deep breath, his eyes fell on the chessboard, and he reached out to rearrange the chessboard.

She whispered, "It is a serious crime to murder the crown prince, and it will bring disaster to the entire Wen family."

"The Wen family naturally doesn't want to be implicated."

"I think the Queen wants to protect the Wen family. After all, the Ningyuan Marquis is the Crown Prince's confidant."

Shen Mi put down the chess piece in his hand, stood up from his seat and walked towards the dressing table.

Taking the Begonia colored glaze hairpin out of her hair, Shen Mi unscrewed it and shook out all the poison.

She ordered Yunlan, "Bring the candle over here."

Yun Lan nodded and turned to get the candle.

The master and servant put on veils. After Shen Mi lit the nine-grade red with fire, she asked Yun Lan to open the doors and windows.

The Nine-Rank Red finally dissipated completely.

She sat down at the dressing table again, looking at herself in the mirror, feeling as if she were in another world.

The memories of my past life emerged in my mind frame by frame, seeming a little unreal.

She said calmly, "Your Majesty and the Queen must be getting very worried."

Yun Lan nodded, "I heard that His Majesty is going to issue an imperial decree to seek a famous doctor."

Shen Mi curled her lips slightly, "Send a message to Senior Brother, tell him not to accept the imperial edict."

"Why, miss?"

"Isn't it just what the young lady wants that Master Yu accepts the imperial edict?"

Shen Mi said, "Brother, you will be introduced to the palace by the Minister of Rites, Lord Wu."

"Let him wait in Wangjing Tower."

Yun Lan nodded. "Yes, Miss. I understand."

The color of Shen Mi's eyes changed slightly, and he seemed to have thought of something.

Although Yun Jue, the leader of the prince's secret guards, has left Yanjing, he still has a Wu Ren.

If he wants his senior brother to find a way to enter the underground prison in the Prince's Eastern Palace.

There are too many eyes watching, so I have to be careful.

However, if Yu Zian can successfully enter the Eastern Palace, he will be halfway successful.

……

The news of the prince's poisoning soon spread throughout Yanjing and even the entire Dayan.

It also reached the ears of the royal family of Liguo.

Although the Crown Prince of Dayan was poisoned, we still have Emperor Ren De and Prince Rui, so the country has not been lost.

Wen Yue died in prison and also wrote a blood oath, so the Dali Temple closed the case.

However, regarding the Ningyuan Marquis, although the Queen tried her best to vouch for him, Emperor Ren De still felt that it was not simple.

Want to seize the title of Ningyuan Hou.

The queen could only go to Yongshou Palace to ask the emperor for help.

In the morning light, the sun just shines into Fengyi Palace.

After the queen finished washing, she hurried to Yongshou Palace where the emperor was.

She knew that His Majesty was in the morning court, and if she did not ask the emperor for help, the Wen family might really be stripped of their title.

Ning Yuan Hou was the prince's confidant and had been making plans for the prince for many years. She didn't want to lose this confidant just like that.

In Yongshou Palace, as soon as the retired emperor woke up, the palace maids and nannies brought hot water for him to wash.

The Crown Prince sat upright on the bed, and soon Eunuch Liu came in from outside.

"Your Majesty, the Empress requests an audience."

"They said they came for the Wen family."

The Emperor slowly opened his eyes and spoke in a very calm voice.

"Tell her to go back."

"Hong'er will decide this matter."

"Shooting and killing the crown prince of Dayan is a serious crime. The queen shouldn't come to plead for mercy. Go out and tell her that I will not interfere in this matter."

Eunuch Liu nodded, "Yes, I'll go talk to her right away."

Outside the Yongshou Palace, the Queen was waiting anxiously, and soon Eunuch Liu came out.

"Eunuch Liu, what does the emperor say?"

"The Wen family made great contributions when the country was founded. If we strip the Ningyuan Marquisate of its title, how will the people of Dayan view our Dayan royal family?"

Eunuch Liu said, "Empress, the Emperor has ordered you to go and ask His Majesty."

"Everything is up to your majesty. Your Majesty, please go back."

After Eunuch Liu finished speaking, he turned around and walked into the Yongshou Palace.

Seeing that the retired emperor didn't want to see her, the queen had no choice but to turn around and go back to Fengyi Palace.

"Your Majesty, the Queen has left."

The emperor nodded, stood up from the edge of the bed and sat down on the chair.

"I've asked you to observe Che'er these past few days. Do you know what he's been busy with recently?"

Eunuch Liu said with a smile: "Replying to the Emperor, Prince Rui is now busy with military affairs in the Qilin Army."

"I heard that the person who poisoned Qilin was found a few days ago, and King Rui punished many commanders."

"The current Qilin Army can be considered to have been reorganized."

"Is that all?" asked the Emperor.

Eunuch Liu was a little puzzled. "Does the emperor want to hear other things from Prince Rui?"

The emperor sat upright in a chair, took the tea handed to him by a palace maid, and rinsed his mouth.

"Some time ago, this kid stole the jade disc from me and has not returned it to me yet."

"Is there something you are hiding from me?"

"This..." Eunuch Liu scratched his head.

Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he patted his forehead.

"I almost forgot."

"The other day, I heard some rumors about King Rui."

"It is said that someone saw Prince Rui with a young man in blue clothes at the First Floor Building."

"He even taught the young man in blue archery. I heard that the two of them went to a private room in the First-class Building and never came out."

"It's being rumored in the army now that Prince Rui is... a homosexual."

After saying this, Eunuch Liu subconsciously looked up at the retired emperor.

At this moment, the emperor's face turned green.

"Your Majesty, would you like me to send someone to find out?"

"Your Highness Prince Rui has been an adult for several years. Although there are no concubines in the palace, it is impossible for him to..."

The Emperor took a deep breath and said, "Go and tell Che'er to come to me after the morning court session."

"Tell him to return the Royal Jade Disc as soon as possible. I want to see what he did with it."

Eunuch Liu nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I will pass the message right away."

At this moment, in the court, Emperor Ren De had a cold expression as he looked at the civil and military officials standing below.

Lord Liu from the Imperial Hospital stood in the crowd, with a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.

Everyone lowered their heads, not daring to look at Emperor Ren De who was sitting on the high throne.

After a while, the cold voice of Emperor Ren De was heard.

"There are so many people in the Imperial Hospital, but they still haven't found a way to detoxify."

"Jing'er is the crown prince of Dayan. If you can't come up with a solution, I will chop off your heads."
