After my rebirth, my whole family read my mind, and my father decided to usurp the throne.

The Royal Study Room of the Imperial Palace.

The old emperor learned from the secret what was happening in the capital and at the prime minister's home.

"Who spread the news about the Prime Minister's family affairs?"

An Yi lowered his head and said, "Back to the emperor, the Prime Minister himself sent someone to spread the news. The Prime Minister has a firm intention to drive away his mother and uncle's family.

After leaving Prince Kang's Mansion, he began to plan this matter. Now the public opinion in the capital has completely tilted towards the Prime Minister and his family.

Everyone supported the Prime Minister's decision to sever the relationship between mother and son. "

The old emperor took a deep breath and felt that his heart ached a little. He fumbled and took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, poured a small black pill and swallowed it.

"What's going on in Prince Kang's Mansion now? I remember last time I asked you to find an opportunity to insert an informant into it."

"Your Majesty, I forgive you. I couldn't find a suitable opportunity to insert spies into Prince Kang's Mansion. Today's Prince Kang's Mansion is like an iron cage, and I can't find any opportunities to take advantage of it."

An Yi's words made the old emperor's face darken.

"You just said that the Prime Minister's wife went to Prince Kang's Mansion twice and the Prime Minister went once. After leaving, she started to create public opinion and kicked his mother out of the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

"Yes."

The old emperor sneered, "It's obvious that King Kang said something to the Prime Minister and his wife, otherwise why would the Prime Minister do this for no reason.

Okay, you continue to look for opportunities to plant spies in Prince Kang's palace, and send people to find out where the prime minister sent his mother and uncle's family. "

"Yes." An Yi breathed a sigh of relief and was about to leave, but the old emperor stopped him again.

"An Yi, is Prince Gong's place going as planned?"

"Back to the Emperor, Prince Gong has been spending most of his time at his residence recently except for entering the palace. His subordinates have not yet found a suitable opportunity to assassinate Prince Gong."

The old emperor was displeased, and his old face darkened, "Trash! Why do you still want to find a suitable opportunity for such a small thing?

In the next few days, send someone directly to Prince Gong’s Mansion to assassinate him as soon as possible! Remember to leave evidence! "

"Yes!"

An Yi responded and left.

The old emperor closed his eyes and rubbed the center of his brow, and shouted in a drawled voice, "Fuquan."

Mr. Fuquan, who was standing by and watching his nose and heart, trying to reduce his sense of presence, almost couldn't help but tremble.

"Yes, I'm here, old slave. What are your orders, Your Majesty?"

"Let the Prime Minister come to see me today."

"Yes, old slave, go right away."

Eunuch Fuquan left for a while and came back, "Your Majesty, I have already given the order. The Prime Minister will be here soon."

After the report, Eunuch Fuquan stopped talking, and there were beads of sweat on his forehead.

The old emperor glanced at him and said, "Do you have something to say?"

Eunuch Fuquan laughed sarcastically, "Your Majesty has good eyesight, and you can't hide anything from your Majesty. Your Majesty, the Chinese New Year is only about ten days away.

I wonder if you will let the three princes who are away from home return to Beijing to celebrate the New Year this year? "

At this time in previous years, the emperor had already issued the imperial edict.

This year's emperor actually didn't think about it at all.

When Eunuch Fuquan said this, the old emperor finally remembered.

These days, things out of his control occurred one after another, making him forget about it.

"Since there are only more than ten days left, there is no need to let them come back. Send someone to deliver a message saying that I sympathize with their hard work of garrisoning the fiefdom and there is no need to rush back to the capital.

After the new year, I will look for opportunities to let them come to Beijing. "

The old emperor excused himself by giving a random reason.

"Yes, old slave, go right away."

Not long after Eunuch Fuquan agreed to leave, Prime Minister Leng Zhuning came. "I see you, Your Majesty."

"I love you, so there is no need to be too polite. My dear, your family affairs have caused quite a stir in the capital these past two days, and I have heard about it."

The old emperor directly mentioned the matter straight to the point.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I forgive you. This is an act of helplessness. If I had not done this, my wife would have been tortured to death by my mother.

In order for my wife to live well, I can only do this. "

Leng Zhuning lowered his head and reported back.

The old emperor played with the jade ring on his thumb, "Well, so the things that are being spread in the capital are true?"

"Reporting to the emperor, it is indeed true."

"I see. I didn't expect that Prince Kang could do something good. I'm very happy."

When Leng Zhuning heard this, he didn't think about why the emperor knew about it.

"Yes, I'm very grateful to Prince Kang and Princess Kang. If it weren't for them, I'm afraid I and my wife would still be kept in the dark, and they might even be separated forever."

Leng Zhuning's gratitude to Kang Wang's family was beyond words.

The old emperor only felt it was dazzling, so he squinted his eyes and changed the topic.

"What do you think of Concubine Shu?"

When it came to Concubine Shu, Leng Zhuning's high mood immediately cooled down.

"Back to the Emperor, Concubine Shu is my cousin. Logically speaking, I should intercede on her behalf.

I did indeed plead with the Emperor on her behalf.

But since I found out that the reason why my mother treated my wife like this was because of my cousin, in my heart, she was no longer my cousin.

It is true that Concubine Shu sent people to assassinate Concubine Kang and several young masters. In addition, in the past few days, some people in the capital who had been harmed by Concubine Shu spontaneously gathered together and wanted to ask the emperor to deal with Concubine Shu and give them justice. A fair one.

Your Majesty, I believe that in order to stabilize people's hearts and bring justice to the people and Prince Kang's family, Concubine Shu should be dealt with. "

The old emperor looked meaningfully at Leng Zhuning, who had his head lowered, "Then in your opinion, how should I deal with Concubine Shu, so that I can stabilize the people's hearts and give justice to the people and Prince Kang's family?"

Leng Zhuning bowed and said, "Go back to the Emperor. I don't know. It's all up to the Emperor."

Leng Zhuning said it but seemed like he didn't say anything.

The old emperor didn't realize it before, but now he has clearly discovered Leng Zhuning's cunningness.

The old emperor didn't say much. He just said that he would think about it and asked Leng Zhuning to withdraw.

On that day, the old emperor issued an imperial edict. After beating Concubine Shu twenty times, he demoted Concubine Shu to the rank of Zhaoyi and sent her to the Jinchan Temple to practice atonement. She was to worship the Buddha with a green lantern and was not allowed to enter the palace again.

As soon as this imperial edict came out, Jiang Zhaoyi, who was demoted from Concubine Shu to Zhaoyi, became angry.

She shouted in the prison that she wanted to see the emperor, the queen, and the prime minister.

But this time no one paid any attention to her.

After playing twenty games, Jiang Zhaoyi, who had always been pampered, could only breathe.

The palace people calmly asked the palace maid to apply medicine on her hastily, and then sent her to Jinchan Temple.

After hearing this, the queen breathed a long sigh of relief.

There was a sense of relief that the burden that had been weighing on her shoulders for decades was finally lifted.

From now on, she can finally stop cleaning up the mess for Jiang Yiliu, her cousin!

The contents of the imperial edict reached the capital.

Not many people were happy.

Because what everyone hopes is that the emperor can directly kill Concubine Shu instead of leaving her alive.

Lu Jianan, who was still living in Prince Kang's Mansion, felt very sorry after hearing this.
