Marry a Duke

Chapter 293 Another Plan

The emperor could hardly believe his eyes.

If it was sent by someone else, he would definitely not believe it and would think that the person took the opportunity to frame the imperial sister.

Back then, the imperial sister did everything she could to support him in seizing the position of the ruler of the world. Even though the imperial sister had ambitions, it was to have more power.

She knew very well that once the territory of Dayue was sold to others, it could not be easily taken back.

That is treason.

Even though he felt that his sister was going too far, he always believed that she would never do such a thing.

Now, these evidences were sent by Wei Xuan.

Wei Xuan is a person who disdains to fabricate evidence to frame others.

This is at least 80% true.

"Someone come here." The emperor was furious.

"Your Majesty—"

"Let Yu Jiannan come to see me immediately."

"Yes."

The emperor also ordered the commander of the imperial guards, Hu Youyu, to go to the princess's residence and summon the princess into the palace.

The eldest princess was extremely angry because the emperor did not help her with her severed finger.

The emperor summoned her into the palace at this time, and she naturally thought that the emperor wanted to submit to her.

The commander of the imperial guards was sent to invite her, not just a small eunuch.

The eldest princess packed up and went into the palace.

She still looked unhappy, but still had to put on a bad face for the emperor to see.

Otherwise, the emperor would not know where he went wrong.

Instead of helping his own flesh and blood, he sided with outsiders.

"Your Majesty, why did you summon me into the palace again? Are you going to blame me again?" When the eldest princess saw the emperor, she hardly bowed and sat down without being asked to take a seat.

That look was quite arrogant.

She didn't look at the emperor directly, so she didn't know that Emperor Tianyuan was different today from usual. His face was extremely dark.

There was endless coldness in his eyes when he looked at the eldest princess.

"Royal sister, I received a piece of news today." After a moment, Emperor Tianyuan tried to speak in a calm tone.

"Oh? What news could it be?" The eldest princess's eyes fell on her severed finger.

Her severed finger could have been reattached.

It was all because Wei Xuan was too vicious that her wound became seriously infected. Now, the severed finger is completely dead and can no longer be used.

In her heart, she wished she could kill Wei Xuan a hundred times and make him die completely.

But if we only kill him, it would be too easy for him.

Her severed finger and her Ruhui must have made everyone in the Weiguo Mansion pay a heavy price.

"I have ordered people to investigate the origins of the Fire Hunters. My sister is unwilling to speak out, but it is not impossible to investigate. My people have already traced back to Chi Fanxu of Yueyang. Does my sister want to say something to me?"

Emperor Tianyuan still wanted to give her a chance.

If only she would tell it all.

As long as she was willing to repent, he was willing to forgive her for the sake of the past and only give her a small punishment.

But the eldest princess never thought of repenting.

"Your Majesty is so soft-hearted now that he dares to believe anything. What's going on? Is there someone instigating this and forcing a crime on me for no reason?"

The eldest princess didn't believe that the emperor's people would find out about Yueyang Pool so quickly.

It must be Wei Xuan.

"Did Wei Xuan say something to you, Your Majesty? As Duke of Wei, Wei Xuan is just a minister. Don't trust him too much and let him take the lead in everything. This will not do any good to the Dayue Dynasty."

The eldest princess already regretted why she had helped this useless brother to sit on the throne.

If she had known this would happen, she should have taken the position herself.

"Without solid evidence, no one's words will be of any use. Sister, you really don't repent, do you really think you are innocent?" Emperor Tianyuan was inexplicably excited. "I have already sent Yu Jiannan to Yueyang Lake. Fan Xu was promoted by you. If I really find out something, I will never let you off easily, even if it's Sister."

Emperor Tianyuan finally made a serious statement.

The eldest princess had never been treated like this before, and she felt very disappointed.

This brother who always respected her has changed and is no longer the same as before.

If that's the case, why should she devote herself to protecting his kingdom?

"Okay, I'd like to see what the Emperor can find out."

The eldest princess was not in a hurry to leave the palace, but sat in the harem for a while.

Now, the emperor has three princes.

They are all still young.

The eldest princess stayed in Concubine Hui's palace for half a day.

Concubine Hui gave birth to the third prince not long ago, and he is only five months old now.

Before that, Concubine Hui was just a court lady with a very poor family background and no maternal family to rely on.

She was quickly promoted to the position of concubine because of the emperor's favor towards her.

Emperor Tianyuan did not know that Concubine Hui was favored by him because of the influence of the eldest princess.

Without the support of the eldest princess, how could Concubine Hui have risen from a palace lady to a favored concubine?

Concubine Hui has the leverage over the eldest princess.

"The Third Prince is really innocent and cute, and he looks seven points like his father." The eldest princess held the Third Prince in her arms.

Concubine Hui was trembling with fear on the side.

But there was still a forced smile on his face.

"What the princess said is true. Thanks to the princess's kindness, otherwise, we would not have any chance of survival today."

The eldest princess raised her eyes calmly.

"As long as you know."

She scoffed softly.

"I thought you had forgotten the past."

Concubine Hui's breath was choked and her eyes were panicked.

"The eldest princess is in serious condition. I dare not forget it, and I cannot forget it." The life of her only younger brother is in the hands of the eldest princess.

How dare she act rashly?

"That's good." The princess handed the third prince to the nanny kindly, "Concubine Hui, you gave birth to the third prince and have made great contributions. Now the eldest prince is weak, and the second prince was only born two months earlier than the third prince. You must not miss this great opportunity."

Concubine Hui's heart was shaking wildly.

Could it be——

Does the princess think her child has a chance of becoming crown prince?

Concubine Hui was well aware of the deep sisterly love between the Emperor and the eldest princess.

In the eyes of the emperor, the eldest princess is a completely different existence. With just one word from the eldest princess, perhaps her child can really sit on the position that was originally out of reach.

Concubine Hui tried hard to control her trembling body.

"Everything depends on the Princess."

"Okay, as long as you listen to me, I was able to let the emperor sit on the throne back then, and in the future, I can also let your third prince sit on the throne." The eldest princess smiled.

A chilling smile.

Afterwards, the eldest princess left the palace.

Concubine Hui couldn't calm down for a long time.

The nanny beside her was also surprised and delighted.

"Your Majesty, with the eldest princess's guarantee, our third prince will definitely be the one to sit on the throne in the future."

These palace maids are the Empress Dowager's servants.

Your status will naturally be raised.

Unexpectedly, Concubine Hui gave a bitter smile.

The eldest princess came to her suddenly and said these words suddenly. It was impossible that she said them on a whim.

Maybe she had already made plans.

The emperor is still young and it is impossible for him to give up the throne in a short time, so -

Her third prince was only a few months old.

The matter of establishing a crown prince is still a long way off.

I’m afraid the princess has a more sinister plan.
