Reborn as a bride, pretending to be virtuous, the prince held his waist and regretted

Xie Jin was still in mourning, so he quickly rode back to the farm.

But it was already dark, and Gu Xirong was waiting anxiously at home.

Seeing Xie Jin coming back, Gu Xirong breathed a sigh of relief, "My husband, have you caught those Red Lotus remnants? Have you rescued the prince?"

Xie Jin replied: "The three places you mentioned have been surrounded and conquered by my men. Most of the Red Lotus remnants have been captured or killed. Even the mastermind Xuan Mingzi has been captured."

"The prince was also rescued today, all thanks to Zhou Jin. I met Zhou Jin, and he reminded me that the person who was kidnapped was the prince's substitute, so during the capture process, I killed everyone without any scruples."

"In addition, not only did they find the prince's substitute, they also captured Prince Yun. I heard from others that Prince Yun faked his death, and I really don't understand why he did this."

Gu Xirong smiled when she heard this, "According to the predictions in my dream, I think King Yun is a brainless, infatuated man! He will be sold by the Red Lotus Cult in the future, and he will still be counting money for them!"

Xie Jin nodded repeatedly upon hearing this, "I think so too. He didn't want to be a good prince, but had to fake his death. The methods used by Xuan Mingzi and his people are extremely evil, and they have harmed so many young people in the capital."

"Now that she's been caught, the whole city will never let it go. Although the woman hasn't been caught yet, I believe she's just a grasshopper in autumn, and won't be around for long."

Gu Xirong heard this and whispered, "As long as we haven't caught him yet, we must be careful! But my husband has already done a great deed, and he is still in mourning, so I guess these things are not our turn!"

"Once the truth is revealed, there will naturally be a chance to reward you for your merits! My husband has made meritorious contributions this time, but this cannot be considered a favor from the Changning Marquisate."

Xie Jin was slightly stunned when he heard this. "If Zhou Jin hadn't told me this, I wouldn't have known that it was the remnants of the Red Lotus who committed the crime. In addition, he also told me that the prince was a substitute!"

"One more thing. When the prince came to inspect the cornfield, Zhou Jin brought officials from the Department of Agriculture with him. There are so many imperial farms, but Zhou Jin chose one that was very close to where I was in mourning."

"If you say there is no push from the Changning Marquisate, I don't think it makes sense. Madam, the Changning Marquisate promised to do us a favor before. If they mention it, we should accept it. If they don't mention it, then forget it!"

Hearing this, Gu Xirong frowned slightly, "It's obviously a coincidence!"

Xie Jin smiled and said, "No matter what, I have made great contributions, there is no doubt about that! It is enough to make up for the mistakes I made in the northern border."

Gu Xirong nodded when she heard this, "My husband is right! There are still more than two years left in the three-year mourning period. Even if we want to ask for a favor, there is no need to rush."

Xie Jin deeply agreed, "Madam, you are right. Good things take time. Madam, life on the farm is hard. Why don't you return home?"

Gu Xirong shook her head. "My husband is here, and I am here too. At least I can see my husband every morning and every evening. I can't enjoy the delicacies without my husband. When I am with my husband, I can enjoy even the simplest meals."

Xie Jin was deeply moved when he heard Gu Xirong's words, and told Nanny Zhang to take good care of his wife.

Desserts made with milk and steamed eggs with milk can nourish the body, are not considered meat dishes, and do not violate the rules of mourning.

Gu Xirong is now very happy. She and Xie Jin are in love, and her mother-in-law is dead. No one bothers her anymore, and she can finally have peace and quiet.

It was great that after making a mistake in the North, he could make great contributions by returning to Beijing to observe mourning. It made Gu Xirong's plan worthwhile.

From the moment she plotted against her mother-in-law, she wanted Xie Jin to come back, and then take advantage of the situation to make a contribution in this matter involving the remnants of the Red Lotus.

Xie Jin really did not disappoint her this time and achieved his goal.

Although the Imperial Guards and the Jinlin Guards searched everywhere, they still couldn't find the White Lotus and the few remaining Red Lotus remnants.

But they did capture a live person, and Jin Linwei is currently interrogating him. I believe that they will soon find the hiding place of the remnants of the Red Lotus.

Emperor Kangping listened to the reports from Commander Xu and the commander of the Imperial Guard. Although he did not completely capture the Red Lotus organization, he basically destroyed the remnants of the organization.

"Have they been interrogated as to why they did this? What grudge do they have against me?" asked Emperor Kangping.

Xu Cheng replied, "Your Majesty, Xuan Mingzi wants to see you in person before he will tell you. No matter how we torture him, he won't tell you. But, Your Majesty, please don't go. Xuan Mingzi is good at using poison, and who knows if he has any other tricks up his sleeve."

Emperor Kang Ping thought about it and nodded, "Since we have captured Xuan Mingzi, there is nothing else to worry about. Once we capture Xuan Mingzi's daughter, we can pry open his mouth."

After the Imperial Guards were led away, Emperor Kangping asked, "Xu Cheng, where is the man pretending to be Prince Yun imprisoned?"

Xu Cheng replied: "Your Majesty, the liar is imprisoned in the dungeon of Jinlinwei."

Emperor Kangping stroked his beard and said, "Come on, take me to see it."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Xu Cheng agreed and personally took Emperor Kangping over.

Prince Yun was imprisoned in the dungeon at this time, feeling extremely regretful. He thought that when he saw Emperor Kangping, he would kneel down and beg his brother not to kill him.

Although the possibility is small, he still has hope.

After all, they had a very good brotherly relationship before. What if Emperor Kangping still had feelings for them?

At this time Emperor Kangping came over, and Prince Yun knelt and crawled to the door of the dungeon, begging, "Royal brother, I didn't want to fake my death. It was the woman named Bai Lian who bewitched me and drugged me. Many things I did were not what I thought."

Emperor Kangping looked at Prince Yun, who was full of vigor and vitality before and now looked like a lost dog, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

One wrong step leads to all wrong.

I wonder what the Queen Mother would do if she saw Prince Yun like this?

Emperor Kangping sneered, "Yunjia, if it's for a woman, you are indeed stupid. If you just want to rebel, although I am angry, I can understand. After all, you are all my father's sons, and it is reasonable for you and other brothers to want to snatch them."

"But you should never, ever, take action against my offspring. I could have had many children to make my rule more stable. But because I don't have many offspring, many people are ready to take action, which has cost me a lot of energy."

Prince Yun regretted that he was deceived by Bai Lian.

He is too self-righteous.

In the past, when the Queen Mother said that he could not accomplish anything, Prince Yun did not believe it, but now he believes it.

But there is no regret medicine in the world, it’s too late to regret!

"Brother, please let me go. It was mother who did it, not me. Other than being deceived and tricked by that woman Bai Lian to fake my own death, I have done nothing to let you down."

Emperor Kangping was so angry that he laughed at Prince Yun's words. How could there be such a shameless person?

If Prince Yun and the remnants of Red Lotus had achieved their goal, both he and the Crown Prince would have been dead.

Now that he has failed, he wants to beg and escape punishment.

Emperor Kangping certainly would not allow it.

At this time, Huang Bing brought the Queen Mother and Princess Xueying over and sent them to the dungeon of Jinlinwei, which was next to Prince Yun.

The Queen Mother, who had remained calm all the way, immediately broke down the moment she saw Prince Yun.
