Chapter 198 The 3rd Prince Assists in Investigating the Case

Hearing Emperor Chengren's summons, the two envoys stepped into the hall.

"Greetings to His Majesty the Great Cheng."

"No gift."

Emperor Chengren looked at the two people in the hall with a frown on his face.

"Why are there only two of you here? Where are Saint Lingjia and Prince Agus?"

It is really unbelievable that such a big thing happened in the palace but the leaders of the two countries were not there.

"Your Majesty, our country's Holy Maiden was unwell last night and did not enter the palace today." said the envoy from the Southern Dynasty.

"Our prince is the same. He is not feeling well and is resting in the inn." The envoy from Beixin Kingdom was a little nervous. After all, he had not seen Prince Agus since last night.

Both of them happened to be unwell, and Emperor Chengren did not investigate further.

He looked at the envoy from the Southern Dynasty and spoke coldly.

"Envoy from the Southern Dynasty, have you heard about the fire at Kunhe Palace last night?"

The envoy from the Southern Dynasty was so frightened that he knelt on the ground with a trembling voice.

"Your Majesty, I don't know where the rumor came from, saying that this incident was caused by the Southern Dynasty."

"I guarantee that the Southern Dynasty is loyal to Dacheng and has no second thoughts. Your Majesty, please investigate!"

The envoy from the Northern Xin Kingdom couldn't help but sneer when he saw how cowardly he was.

"I say, Southern Dynasty envoy, the thief has already confessed yesterday, what's the point of you still showing your loyalty?"

"Everyone in the palace knows that the Saint of your Southern Dynasty entered Kunhe Palace yesterday. She met with Queen Dacheng this morning, and something happened in Kunhe Palace in the evening. I guess Saint Lingjia entered the palace to collude with the eunuch."

"I advise you to plead guilty. Be careful if the Dacheng soldiers really attack your city. Then your Southern Dynasty will be finished."

"you!"

The envoy from the Southern Dynasty looked at him angrily.

"Don't be complacent! Our Southern Dynasty's loyalty to Dacheng is clear to all. Your Majesty will definitely investigate!"

"But you Beixin..."

The envoy from the Southern Dynasty stood up and looked at the other party sharply.

"If I remember correctly, Prince Bei Xin also went to the palace to see the emperor yesterday and went to the Imperial Garden. A female corpse appeared in the Imperial Garden at night. So can I also say that Prince Bei Xin killed the palace maid?"

"You Beixin people have been harassing the border of Dacheng every year. The tribute you sent at the palace banquet the other day was rotten meat. What is your intention?"

"I think the Kunhe Palace incident might be a way for you Beixin to frame our Nanchao. This incident must be your doing!"

The Southern Dynasty was aggressive and was not at all inferior to the envoys from the Northern Xin Kingdom.

"You! You spit on others!"

The envoy from the Beixin Kingdom did not expect that he had guessed it, and his expression changed instantly.

"Why, was I right?" The envoy from the Southern Dynasty snorted coldly.

"Your Majesty, the sincere heart of our Southern Dynasty is known to all. Please give the Southern Dynasty a chance to prove its innocence!"

The envoys from the Southern Dynasty spoke earnestly.

Emperor Chengren looked at Xiao Yujing, and Xiao Yujing nodded slightly.

"In that case, I will allow you to thoroughly investigate the case again, and the Royal Guards will cooperate with you."

Nan Chaoguo was grateful, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

The envoys from the Northern Xin Kingdom were extremely angry.

We can't let the Southern Dynasty turn the tables so easily. If that happens, both Beixin and the He family will be in big trouble!

He and Lord Zheng looked at each other and made a decision.

Looking upward, the envoy from the Northern Xin Kingdom spoke:

"Your Majesty, if this matter is handed over to the Southern Dynasty, new problems may arise."

"You just heard that the Southern Dynasty envoys have a lot of complaints against our Beixin Kingdom. If the Southern Dynasty investigates casually and puts the blame on our Beixin Kingdom, we will have no way to defend ourselves."

Emperor Chengren frowned.

"So what do you think should be done?"

The envoy of the Northern Xin Kingdom cupped his hands and said, "I think that the Dacheng and Southern Dynasties should jointly investigate this case."

"The Crown Prince of Dacheng is busy with government affairs, so it is inconvenient to disturb him with such trivial matters. I heard that the Third Prince of Dacheng is still living in the palace, so why not ask him to come and investigate the case together? With the supervision of the Crown Prince of Dacheng, I believe the people of the Southern Dynasty will not dare to do anything."

As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar.

Not to mention that the Third Prince is still recuperating from illness, he is now a deposed prince. How can he still interfere in state affairs?

Xiao Yujing almost sneered out loud.

After all this time, I found out that this is what I was thinking.

The Jiang family and Zhang Huaiyun frowned and looked at the envoy from Beixin Kingdom with great disapproval.

Jiang Ci Yan was about to open his mouth to persuade him when he heard Xiao Yujing agree.

"Well, now that the envoy from the Northern Xin Kingdom has spoken, I, Dacheng, cannot turn a blind eye."

"Father, I ask my third brother to assist the Southern Dynasty in handling the Kunhe Palace case."

Xiao Yujing bowed.

Now that the prince has spoken, the court officials have nothing to say.

"Okay, I'll do as you say." Emperor Chengren said.

The envoy from Beixin State and Lord Zheng smiled at each other.

Southern Dynasty, this time you will never return.

Yonghe Hall.

The third prince, who should have been weak due to illness, was now sitting at the table in high spirits.

"Really? Father agreed?"

Xiao Yuheng couldn't believe it when he heard the news from Eunuch Liu.

I didn't expect that my father would agree to let him interfere in state affairs so soon.

"However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also contributed to this matter. It was he who agreed to this matter in the palace." Eunuch Liu said.

Xiao Yuheng's inner joy suddenly disappeared.

Xiao Yujing?

What does he mean?

How could he help him?

Xiao Yuheng frowned tightly.

He knew that the incident in Kunhe Palace last night was planned by his grandfather and Bei Xin, but his grandfather deliberately picked him out. After all, he had just regained his father's trust and could not act rashly at this time.

If he wanted to re-establish his prestige in front of others, a thorough investigation of the Kunhe Palace case would be a good opportunity.

But what about Xiao Yujing?

It was his mother who got into trouble yesterday, and he actually agreed to let him help investigate the case?

It's really incredible.

Seeing that Xiao Yuheng looked troubled, Eunuch Liu asked, "Your Highness, is there anything wrong?"

"Something's wrong..." Xiao Yuheng frowned, "Why would the prince agree to my assistance?"

Eunuch Liu rolled his eyes and advised:

"Your Highness, perhaps His Royal Highness the Crown Prince believed that the Southern Dynasty was the one behind this. Now that His Majesty has ordered the Southern Dynasty to re-investigate the matter, he probably agreed to Your Highness's assistance because he doesn't trust the Southern Dynasty."

After all, compared with outsiders, the imperial brother is more trustworthy.

But Xiao Yuheng didn't think so.

Based on Xiao Yujing's personality, it is absolutely impossible for the reason to be so shallow.

Maybe he already knew that Nan Chaoguo was not the mastermind behind the case, so he asked him to assist in the investigation, and then obstructed him in the process and made him look bad.

Yes, that must be the case!

Xiao Yuheng thought he had guessed what Xiao Yujing was thinking.

He snorted coldly.

My dear brother, I'm afraid I'll disappoint you this time.

He will definitely get things done this time and impress his father and the ministers.

As for the evidence…

If there is no evidence, create evidence.

Southern Dynasty, he will definitely pin the blame on them this time!
