The assassin's princess is actually my aunt

Eunuch Gao hurried in, walked to the side of Emperor Qianyao, bent down and whispered a few words.

Emperor Qianyao nodded and said: "Telegram..."

Lady Jingguo, Princess Zhuxing, walked in with Wei Yunfan.

When passing by Wei Chen, her beautiful eyes looked at him worriedly.

Perhaps it was the bonding experience of many years as a couple, or perhaps it was the natural, reassuring and reassuring aura that came from Princess Zhuxing.

Wei Chen suddenly calmed down.

"Your Majesty, I have seen you... Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

Princess Zhuxing bowed respectfully to Emperor Qianyao and Empress Dowager Duanrong.

"I have seen your majesty...I have seen the Queen Mother."

Wei Yunfan is sixteen years old and does not hold any official position, although he is the only male heir of the Jingguo Mansion.

But he was a bastard, and his biological mother was Princess Zhuxing's dowry and had a low status.

Therefore, he was not conferred the title of Prince of Jingguo, but Wei Chen came forward and asked for the status of a princess for Wei Linlang.

But now, Duke Jingguo is in trouble and Princess Liuyun is unconscious.

Only the wife of the Duke of Jingguo and the concubine's son Wei Yunfan can sustain the Duke of Jingguo's Mansion.

Therefore, it is reasonable for Princess Zhuxing to choose to bring Wei Yunfan into the palace.

Although Wei Yunfan was only sixteen years old and a bastard's son, he was neither humble nor arrogant and looked calm.

This is enough to show that although Wei Yunfan grew up with his aunt, Princess Zhuxing, his mistress, did not treat him harshly.

Emperor Qianyao's gaze passed through Wei Yunfan and fell on Princess Zhuxing.

"Madam Jingguo, what's the matter with you coming to the palace to see me?" There was no emotion in Emperor Qianyao's voice.

But he seemed to have guessed what the two were going to say next.

Sure enough, Princess Zhuxing turned slightly and glanced at Wei Yunfan.

The latter pulled out an object from his bosom, held it in both hands respectfully, and raised it above his head.

Wei Chen looked up and saw that it was the military token for 50,000 soldiers in his hand.

He said in shock, "Madam, this?"

Princess Zhuxing shook her head at Wei Chen and bit her lips lightly with her white teeth.

Wei Chen understood Princess Zhuxing's intention, which was to use the military talisman to save his life.

Wei Chen was unwilling, but he thought, if his wife had not arrived in time.

His Majesty has probably already ordered me to be beheaded. Compared with my own life, these mere 50,000 soldiers and horses are nothing!

I am afraid that His Majesty, under pressure from the Queen Mother, may not release me even if I hand over the military command of 50,000 troops.

Wei Chen sat down on the ground dejectedly, saying nothing more.

Wei Chen recognized the military talisman, and Qian Wushang, Gu Jingxuan and others naturally recognized it as well.

Emperor Qianyao narrowed his eyes and waited for Princess Zhuxing to speak.

Princess Zhuxing looked sad and pleaded, "Your Majesty, Queen Mother.

The master was sleepless day and night and was exhausted because of the child Linlang.

The bad guys also deliberately framed and instigated discord.

The master is honest and straightforward by nature. He loves his daughter dearly and feels sorry for the fact that his subject has suffered an unjust accusation.

I was just used and deceived by someone, and I wrongly accused Princess Mingnuo."

Having said that, Princess Zhuxing looked at Emperor Qianyao with shame and kowtowed again sincerely.

Then she said: “Your Majesty, I know that even if there is a reason for it.

The Lord almost hurt Princess Mingnuo, and that was a fact that could not be disputed.

I have never betrayed my motherland or stolen any military deployment maps.

During the battle that year, I was the princess of Guyue Country and also the wife of Duke Qianyao Jingguo.

My identity is sensitive and I feel deeply trapped in this dilemma. I do not want to talk about what happened back then anymore.

Although I was slandered, I also became the inducement for the Lord to commit such a serious mistake.

The Duke of Jingguo's Mansion is unworthy of Your Majesty's kindness.

Today, I, your humble servant, and the young master of the Jingguo Mansion will hand over the military command on behalf of your lord.

I ask Your Majesty to strip the Duke of his title and take back Jingguo.

Public Mansion.

I beg Your Majesty to allow me to enter the Fahua Temple and practice Buddhism with my hair uncut."

"Ma'am, no!"

Wei Chen was so anxious that he shouted out loud.

He originally thought that the lady just wanted to use the 50,000 troops of the Jingguo Mansion in exchange for his punishment this time.

He had not been to the battlefield for many years. Even though his military power was taken away, it was a big loss for him, but it was not a serious injury.

But now... his wife actually begged His Majesty to strip him of his title, and even she herself had to keep her hair uncut and practice Buddhism!

How is this possible? !

"what?"

Emperor Qianyao also looked at Princess Zhuxing in disbelief.

Princess Zhuxing did not look at Wei Chen, but turned to Queen Dowager Duanrong.

"Your Highness, I, on behalf of the Duke and Linlang, apologize to Princess Mingnuo.

I, your humble servant, voluntarily enter the Fahua Temple and practice Buddhism with my hair uncut. From now on, I will never leave the temple and will recite sutras and chant Buddha's name every day.

Pray to God.

May Princess Mingnuo have a smooth journey ahead.

May your majesty and the Empress Dowager enjoy eternal health.

May the people of Qianyao Country live and work in peace and contentment."

Queen Mother Duanrong looked at Princess Zhuxing and saw that she looked ashamed and sincere, without any falsehood.

He couldn't help but feel a little shaken in his heart, but he could no longer ask the emperor to execute Duke Jingguo.

He just sighed and said, "You are a good person. It's rare that you have such an idea."

Then he looked at Emperor Qian Yao. The final decision on this matter would be made by Emperor Qian Yao.

Emperor Qian Yao looked at Wei Chen, Princess Zhu Xing, and Wei Yunfan, who were kneeling on the ground and still holding the military token high.

After a long time, he nodded at Eunuch Gao.

Eunuch Gao understood, walked up to Wei Yunfan, and took the military token from Wei Yunfan's hand.

Emperor Qianyao made a decision and said in a deep voice: "Duke Jingguo Wei Chen has made two serious mistakes. He is so bold! This crime should be unforgivable.

I remember that he had made great contributions in his early years and has been loyal to me over the years.

This incident was also caused by deception, and Princess Mingnuo was not harmed.

Death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be avoided.

Now he is stripped of his Dukedom and demoted to Earl of Jing'an.

His daughter, Princess Liuyun, Wei Linlang, behaved immorally in front of the palace and her status as princess was revoked.

The wife of Duke Jingguo, Princess Zhuxing Zhao Nianxing.

The imperial edict was revoked, and he was allowed to practice Buddhism at the Fahua Temple on his behalf.
