Chapter 872 - The real culprit
“Ah, really?”
“It should be true, there can’t be any lies.”
“Then why did the Empress do this?”
“I heard that it was to protect the Crown Prince. She was afraid that the Crown Prince would become the target of someone’s plot, so she changed the Empress to Consort Shu’s side. Later, because the Emperor beat up Prince Huai, the Empress was filled with hatred and poisoned the Emperor.”
“The entire Jiang family has been implicated by her.”
“Women really have long hair but short insight.”
Someone coldly snorted.
In short, there were all sorts of things being said in the teahouse.
In a private room on the second floor of the teahouse, Yun Qianyu looked at Xiao Jiuyuan and said,””I remember that the Jiang family still has an eldest son who holds military power and guards the border. If he betrays us, the border will be in danger.”
Xiao Jiuyuan was not worried.
“The soldiers he is leading are Dongli’s soldiers. Those people won’t betray him. His wife and children are all in Dongli, but some of them will definitely follow him. However, he doesn’t have the guts to betray with so few people. However, it is possible that he will escape to the northern barbarians with his men and seek protection.”
“Now it’s up to the emperor’s people to catch him.”
After saying that, Xiao Jiuyuan no longer cared about this topic. He took a piece of cake and put it in Yun Qianyu’s bowl.
“Don’t worry about this. This has nothing to do with us. After we get married, we’ll leave. ”
Yun Qianyu thought that it made sense. However, she was still very happy about the destruction of the Jiang family, so she also ate more.
After dinner, Xiao Jiuyuan and her went to a famous clothing store in the capital to get their clothes measured.
Yun Qianyu told the shopkeeper in detail about the clothes she wanted to make. The shopkeeper promised that he would make them before their wedding.
The two of them came out after measuring the clothes and took the carriage back to Prince an’s residence.
However, when the car was halfway there, it was stopped by someone.
The guards of Li Wang’s residence pulled the carriage, and Bai Yao, who was on the side of the carriage, rode forward and asked,””Who dares to block His Highness’s carriage?”
At the front of the carriage, a man in a navy blue robe stood outside the carriage. When he heard Bai SU’s question, he quickly replied,””Young master, this one has an urgent matter to see his Highness. I request to see his Highness.”
Bai SU’s expression turned cold. Was their family’s Wangye someone who could be seen by anyone?
Just as Bai Ling was about to speak, the man in front of the carriage stepped forward and whispered,””You must be master Bai. I am the son of aunt su of li King’s mansion.”
His words caused Bai Yan’s expression to change slightly.
Aunt su was the one who poisoned His Highness. Now that his son had appeared, what did he want to do?
However, Bai Yao did not ask any more questions. He got off the horse and stood by the window of the carriage to report to Xiao Jiuyuan.
“Your Highness, the person who stopped the horse said that he has an urgent matter to report. He said that he is aunt SU’s son.”
“Ask him what he wants to see this King for.”
Xiao Jiuyuan disliked aunt su very much, and naturally, he disliked her son even more.
Bai su went up to ask and came back to report.
“He said that he wanted to tell Your Highness who ordered his mother to poison Your Highness. He said that he had no intention of harming Your Highness and would not overestimate his own abilities to avenge his mother.”
Xiao Jiuyuan thought for a moment and ordered,””Take him with you, we’ll talk when there’s no one else.”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
Bai su invited the man to follow the carriage.
When the carriage reached a remote place, Xiao Jiuyuan jumped off the carriage.
Under the sunlight, he stood tall and straight, like a handsome mountain peak. He was wearing a black brocade shirt embroidered with gold. The black color made his face look indescribably three-dimensional. His skin was smooth and bright, and his Phoenix eyebrows and Phoenix eyes were unspeakably dazzling.
He looked at the man in front of him in a luxurious and languid manner as he spoke slowly.
“What do you want to see this King for?”
“This little one wants to tell Your Highness who ordered my mother to poison Your Highness.”
Aunt SU’s son said quickly.
