After the eldest daughter was reborn, the whole family knelt down and begged for forgiveness

Something big happened in Runan Palace recently!

It turns out that the previous prince Mu An was not the biological son of the King of Runan...

It is said that when Princess Runan had a difficult delivery, the maidservant had evil intentions and actually exchanged her son with the princess's son.

The servant's son became the prince of the royal palace, while the real prince of Runan Palace lived among the people.

The old princess of Runan Palace was on her way to Huguo Temple to worship Buddha when her carriage suddenly overturned. She was rescued by a young hunter. She found that the hunter was exactly the same as the old prince when he was young.

In addition, the hunter's special birthmark, which only appeared in the Runan Palace, made the old princess suspicious. She followed the clues and discovered the shocking conspiracy of that year.

Uncle Wu was lucky that day as he was discovered by the people in the palace while following them. However, the palace was in chaos at that time because of the issue of the real and fake prince, so he took the opportunity to escape.

It’s just that the people around the young man in white were very powerful. They chased Uncle Wu and almost captured him alive, but he was saved by the hunter at the critical moment.

"I've seen that hunter before in the medicine shop owned by old shopkeeper Qi. He seemed to know that his subordinates were acting on the orders of the eldest lady."

Hearing this, Xiao Xuetang instantly realized that the hunter Uncle Qi was referring to was probably Mu Han!

In his previous life, Xiao Xuetang only knew that Mu Han was the second son of the Ru'nan Palace. The palace announced to the public that the second son was stranded among the people because of an accident, but he did not expect that there was such a grudge between them.

What Xiao Xuetang didn't expect was that Mu Han would actually save Uncle Wu.

"It was too dangerous this time. Fortunately, Uncle Wu, you are okay."

Xiao Xuetang said with great relief.

She had never expected that her momentary act of kindness in the suburbs that day would allow her to make peace with Mu Han, her enemy in her previous life, and accidentally save Uncle Wu's life.

It seems that people should do more good deeds!

"Did the young man in white see his face clearly? Since he has connections with the Prince of Runan's Palace, he must be no ordinary person."

Speaking of this, Xiao Xuetang couldn't help but think of the man in white whom he met at the street corner today. Could it be him?

Uncle Wu shook his head slightly and said, "The man was wearing a bamboo hat, so I couldn't see his face clearly."

Xiao Xuetang sighed with some regret, but then she changed her mind and thought that if this matter was related to the powerful eunuchs, she didn't need to investigate, as Lin Xun would do it himself.

Thinking of this, Xiao Xuetang said to Uncle Wu, "Uncle Wu, please go to the Regent's Mansion again and tell the Regent about this matter in detail."

Uncle Wu gasped, thinking he had heard something wrong: "Miss, you said... Regent? Did I hear it right?"

He had only been missing for a day, so how did his young lady get in touch with the Regent?

Seeing Uncle Wu looking like he had seen a ghost, Xiao Xuetang couldn't help but hold his forehead and said, "This is a long story. I will explain it to you slowly when I have time in the future."

Uncle Wu could only put aside his doubts for the time being and delivered the message as ordered, but he failed to deliver the message...

It’s not that Lin Xun deliberately didn’t want to see Uncle Wu, but after Lin Xun was summoned to the palace, he never returned to the palace.

……

The assassination of the prince caused a great uproar in the court, and it happened after he met the regent in the restaurant.

Originally, the court officials had some complaints about Lin Xun's monopolization of power. They all felt that the Regent was so powerful and had a bad temper that Emperor Yonghui could not control him at all.

Some even went so far as to want Emperor Yonghui to abolish Lin Xun's title of Regent. Their reason was very direct: even though the Regent had no intention of rebellion now, it did not mean that he would not have the intention of rebellion in the future.

Today, the emperor is in his prime, the country is stable, the southern barbarians are submissive, and the world is at peace. Why do we need a regent?

Looking at the memorials submitted by court officials, the usually good-tempered Emperor Yonghui rarely got angry.

It is said that when the birds are all gone, the good bows are put away. This good bow has just been brought down from the battlefield, and these ridiculous ministers are about to get rid of it.

Emperor Yonghui severely reprimanded the chief minister. Seeing the emperor's anger, the court officials calmed down a little.

However, this time, Lin Shaoyu was assassinated, which caused trouble again.

No one knew how the news spread, but within half a day the details of what happened in the restaurant were spread in great detail. It was said that the prince had offended the regent and was kicked out of the restaurant, and then he was injured by an assassin on the way.

"This must have been done by the Regent..."

"The regent has a perverse personality and has always been cruel and ruthless. He was able to force Emperor Ai to death in the Golden Palace. When the crown prince offended him, he actually sent people to assassinate the crown prince in the street. The regent was so brazen under the feet of the emperor, it was simply shocking."

"fart!"

Qi Yusheng cursed back without hesitation: "Now the assassin who stabbed the prince has not been caught, what basis do you have to say that it is related to the regent?"

The civil official who was scolded was also stubborn. He was not afraid to confront Qi Yusheng and said, "In this capital, who else can injure the guards of the East Palace and stab the prince except the regent?"

After a lot of arguing, everyone realized that today's protagonist was not present...

"Look, the Regent didn't even come to the morning court today. He must be feeling guilty!"

Qi Yusheng's mouth twitched, he glanced at the fearless civil servant, and thought: If Lin Xun were here today, and heard you guys mentioning things of the previous dynasty without knowing the consequences, he would probably twist the idiot's head off and kick it like a ball.

At this time, Emperor Yonghui, who was sitting on the dragon throne, finally spoke up and said, "Okay, I have handed over the matter of the Crown Prince's assassination to the Ministry of Justice and the Imperial Household Inspection Office to jointly investigate. This matter has nothing to do with the Regent."

Now that the emperor had spoken, the court officials who had been arguing fiercely below did not know what to say any more and just stared at each other for a long while.

But Emperor Yonghui continued, "As for the fact that the Prince Regent did not attend court today, it was my permission. He always fears quarrels, and he doesn't want you to quarrel and disturb his peace like today."

Hearing Emperor Yonghui openly protecting Lin Xun, everyone had different expressions, even Prime Minister Wang, who was unmoved in the court, changed his face.

The injury to the Crown Prince concerns the foundation of the country, but no one expected that Emperor Yonghui had no suspicion of Lin Xun at all!

Someone who was well-informed whispered, "I heard that the Prince Regent left the city early in the morning and went to the Huguo Temple. He said he wanted to meditate in seclusion. It seems that His Majesty sent him to the Huguo Temple to hide from the limelight."

When Prime Minister Wang heard this, his already gloomy face turned even uglier!

Qi Yusheng had good hearing and could clearly hear Prime Minister Wang and his party gossiping. He sneered in his heart...

Taking shelter from the limelight?

In his opinion, it was almost necessary to prevent Lin Xun from going crazy!

Once Lin Xun gets angry, not to mention those civil servants who only know how to gossip behind his back, even Prime Minister Wang’s head would probably be twisted by him.

The situation in the court was complicated now, and Emperor Yonghui did not want Lin Xun to bear any more unwarranted infamy, so he forced him to leave the city.

I hope that Emperor Yonghui can give Lin Xun a satisfactory answer before he returns to Kyoto...

Qi Yusheng looked at Prime Minister Wang and his party with a cold look in his eyes.

……

At the same time, at dawn, carriages outside the Marquis's Mansion left the city one after another and set off for the Huguo Temple...
