Reborn Female Assassin Falls in Love with Tsundere Little Prince

Shangguan Zimeng looked at Feng Yidao who was standing there blankly and asked, "There's nothing for you to do now, go and drink some water."

"Tsk, I've already drunk it at Qi's residence."

"Then are you willing to come with me to the palace? I will take you to see the golden bricks and jade tiles of the imperial palace."

"Forget it, I'm not thirsty anymore, but I'm still hungry."

She understood that he must be tired these days, so she shouted, "Yu'er, get him something to eat. Yue'er, come with me to the palace."

A group of people drove a carriage towards the palace.

It is said that Yan Kaiyu led the two brothers of the Mu family into the palace.

When Yan Ruoshi heard that his brother had arrived, he guessed that he must have come for the matter of the Minister of War, so he met him in the imperial study.

The emperor was still a little nervous. After all, the matter had not been investigated clearly. He was just confused and angry by the content, so he directly issued an imperial decree to seal the residence of a second-rank official of the court.

The elder brother came forward and the younger brother admitted his mistake first.

"Brother, I really didn't handle this matter very well."

Yan Kaiyu did not become arrogant because of his high position. He still had to observe the etiquette between the monarch and his subjects and paid homage to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, I will pay my respects to the Emperor. Long live the Emperor."

Yan Ruoshi was startled by his action for a moment, and wondered in her heart: Could this be the emperor's way of using courtesy before force? Will he scold me for being short-sighted and reckless later?

"Your Majesty, there is no need for you to be so polite. I'm sure you already know what happened this morning."

"I passed by the Qi Mansion this morning and found it surrounded by imperial guards, so I went to the palace to inquire about the reason."

Yan Ruoshi turned around and took a memorial from the table, explaining, "Brother, please take a look. This is the memorial that Qi Yi submitted to me. What is written in it is simply treasonous and unbearable to read. He said that the queen is the daughter of a fallen country and that the princess was an assassin. As a senior official of the court, he dared to discuss the queen and slander the princess in this way. His crime is truly unforgivable."

Yan Kaiyu opened it and took a look, and knew that this was definitely not written by Qi Yi, and intended to defend him: "Your Majesty, I think there is something fishy about this matter. Your Majesty can think about it carefully. What benefit does Qi Yi get from writing like this? Or, based on your understanding of him, would these words really come from his mouth?"

"I was so angry at the time that I just couldn't stand anyone caring about the Queen's background. If you think my punishment is too severe, I will withdraw the order and re-investigate the matter."

Yan Kaiyu put the memorial back on the table and taught him earnestly, "It's a good punishment. Qi Yi's memorial was replaced so easily, and he didn't even check it before submitting it. He angered the emperor and damaged the queen's reputation. After all, he is old and has excusable circumstances. Withdraw the imperial guards and allow him to retire and return home."

"I will issue an order right now." Yan Ruoshi still felt bad when he saw the petition on the case. After all, his woman was scolded. He said unwillingly, "Brother Emperor, what about this?"

"Let me check it out."

As the two brothers were talking, a young eunuch outside came in to report: "Your Majesty, Prince. The princess is outside and is waiting to be summoned."

"Please come in quickly."

Shangguan Zimeng was beaming with joy as she strode in and saluted with a smile, "Your Majesty, good morning. I salute you and wish you a long life."

Yan Kaiyu criticized: "What kind of gift is this?"

Yan Ruoshi felt that this was the true and free and easy way, and said without any hesitation: "Royal brother, it's okay."

"I will marry you by then, so of course it will be a gift from the palace. Besides, did you hear me? The emperor doesn't mind." Shangguan Zimeng leaned over and whispered in his ear, "Why are you in such a hurry? Don't worry about other people's business."

You still have to give him some face outside.

"..." Yan Kaiyu sighed softly, and endured it. He couldn't beat him anyway: "Didn't I tell you to stay in the mansion? Why did you run to the palace?"

"Of course it's about what happened this morning!"

When Yan Ruoshi heard this, his eyes lit up. It seemed that the real culprit who insulted the queen had been found. He couldn't wait to ask, "Sister-in-law, where did you get this from?"

Shangguan Zimeng asked cheerfully, "May I ask Your Majesty, where is the memorial from this morning now?"

The emperor took the memorial and handed it to her.

She took out the piece of paper that He Xinyue had just submitted, and the memorial that Qi Yi had replaced, and compared them while saying, "Look, although they look the same, if you compare them carefully, you can easily see traces of imitation, and the strokes are very similar. If you don't believe it, you can compare the memorial that Qi Yi was originally going to submit, and there will definitely be some differences between it and this memorial."

Sure enough, as she said, a careful comparison reveals that this memorial is slightly different from the original one, showing a hint of imitation. It seems the truth is now revealed.

Shangguan Zimeng then explained in detail how she had kidnapped He Xinyue, how she divided her troops into two groups to find Qi Yi, and how she was going to submit a memorial to criticize He Pingnan for holding military power.

After hearing this, Yan Ruoshi was immediately furious: "How dare this He Xinyue be so lawless! She framed the court officials, replaced the court documents, and wrote words of treason. Even if she died 100 times, it would not be enough to relieve her hatred!"

Yan Kaiyu secretly gave his princess a thumbs up, and the princess also responded with an OK gesture.

"Brother, what do you think we should do?"

Yan Kaiyu thought about it carefully and replied, "Call the Marquis to the palace and show him all these, so that he knows that he has raised a wonderful daughter. In addition, issue two decrees. The first one is to the Qi Mansion, dismissing the Minister of War Qi Yi from his post and allowing him to return home. His eldest son Qi Shang will be appointed as the Vice Minister of War, and his second son Qi Quan will return home to serve as a filial son."

"The second decree was given to He Pingnan in person by the Emperor, who ordered him to lead his 5,000 troops to the northern border tomorrow. His daughter will stay in the capital and be taken care of by the imperial family."

Yan Ruoshi nodded in agreement, but there was still a trace of doubt in his heart: "What if he is unwilling to rush to the border?"

Yan Kaiyu's gaze was like an abyss, and one could not see the bottom at a glance. His tone revealed murderous intent: "He is a smart man to have come this far. He will definitely go."

"Everything will be arranged by my brother. I will have someone draft an edict right away. By the way, sister-in-law, Xier is always talking about you. When you have time, go see her and chat with her. You can have lunch at the mother's place."

"Great!" Shangguan Zimeng danced with joy, she was so happy: "Then Your Majesty, I will be leaving first, bye."

Seeing that she was being ignored, Yan Kaiyu said arrogantly, "Why don't you say hello to me?"

"It's not like we won't see each other later."

"Girl, I'll deal with you when I get back home."

It’s still unclear who will be the one to deal with whom. In the past, I would definitely be afraid of you, but now you can’t beat me. Maybe I will beat you and make you kneel on the ground and call me aunt.

After Yan Kaiyu saw her leave, he bowed and said to Yan Ruoshi: "You and I are brothers. We are powerful officials in the court. Old officials are not easy to deal with. This time we will take advantage of the situation to deal with two of them. In the future, don't be rash and think twice before you act."

"Thank you for your teachings, brother."
