It was night.

Jun Jiuchen entered the palace alone.

He had just arrived at the entrance of the royal study when he heard Princess Huining's wail coming from inside. This case was very special. No matter if it was the Jing King or the justice courts, they could not easily convict Princess Huaining and the Qi family, let alone sentence them to death. At present, Princess Huining is still free, and the Qi family is still grounded.

It was up to the Emperor to decide whether or not to convict them, and what kind of criminal law to punish them. Naturally, Princess Huining came to beg for mercy.

Jun Jiuchen had known that Princess Huaining would come, but he hadn't expected that his royal father would meet her. Father's illness was worsening. Other than going to court, he had to rest on the bed most of the time. How long had it been since Whining? Can royal father withstand it? Jun Jiuchen knitted his brows, and quickly called for the eunuchs to report the news.

Inside the room, the Tianwu Emperor's complexion wasn't good. He wore bright yellow casual clothes, and he sat on the arhat bed with a sullen face that was shocking to behold. He looked at Princess Huining, his fingers drumming heavily on the table, but he did not speak.

Princess Huining was kneeling on the ground, crying so hard that her eyes couldn't open. She kept saying that she hadn't done it on purpose, that she had been hurt. The First Prince was kneeling at the side, looking as if he had just been taught a lesson. He did not dare to make a sound.

Princess Huining and the First Prince were not the only ones present. Princess Yun was also present. Her eyebrows were slanted and her eyes were bright. She looked dignified. Although she was in her forties, she was well-maintained and her charm was not any less than it was in the past. A young girl stood by her side. If it wasn't for her extremely beautiful appearance, no matter how young she was, she would still be inferior to her. She had been able to keep her pampered for so many years not only because of her beauty, but also because of the emperor's personality. Her words and actions would always satisfy the emperor and win his favor.

Normally, she would sit by the emperor's side and wait on him.

Today, she didn't even dare to sit down and knelt as well. Kneeling behind Princess Huaining's back, he was silent. She had already reported what she needed to report, and she had begged for what she needed to request. She knew that there was no point in speaking any further. She hoped that the Emperor would make his decision before King Jing came.

Unfortunately, she was disappointed.

The eunuch quickly entered the room. "Reporting to your majesty, His Highness Duke Jing requests an audience."

"Father!"

Princess Huaining suddenly went forward and hugged his leg, crying even louder than before, "Father, daughter knows her wrongs! Your daughter will never dare to do so again. Otherwise, your daughter will apologize to Elder Brother Jing Wang! "

As she spoke, she got up and ran out of the room, only to run into Jun Jiuchen at the door. She knelt down and was about to grab Jun Jiuchen's leg, but Jun Jiuchen avoided her.

Jun Jiuchen strode in and bowed respectfully to Tianwu Emperor. "This son greets royal father. The truth of the matter regarding the medicinal cuisine has already been revealed. This son has come to report."

After a moment of hesitation, the Tianwu Emperor gave the order in a low voice, "Imperial Concubine Yun, take Huai Ning away first. Forbidden palace. When this case is concluded, I shall punish her! "

"Yes sir!"

Imperial Concubine Yun quickly received her orders and had Jun Yucheng pull Princess Huaining away.

After leaving the royal study, Jun Yucheng finally spoke, "Mufei, King Jing, will he report us?"

Imperial Concubine Yun was unable to see through Duke Jing's thoughts. She said in a low voice, "Your Imperial Father will meet with us tonight. He still has feelings for us in his heart."

Imperial Concubine Yun looked around and saw that there were no outsiders present. She then whispered to Jun Yuanyuan, telling him to find someone to spread the rumour that King Jing and Gu Feiyan were friends.

When she had pleaded on behalf of Huaining, she had revealed the matter of King Jing pulling Gu Feiyan to change clothes in public. She had even added some extra details, saying that it was King Jing who had helped Gu Feiyan change his clothes. She did it for no other reason than to make the Emperor disgusted with Lone Flying Yan.

As long as the emperor was prejudiced against Gu Feiyan, he might not be so angry with Huining. Most importantly, if Duke Jing continued to bite into Huining and wanted to severely punish him, the emperor would inevitably suspect that he was standing up for Gu Feiyan.

In this way, at the time of the conviction, the Emperor would more or less show mercy to Huaining.

The First Prince finally understood Imperial Concubine Yun's intentions. He whispered, "Mufei, you're the smart one. If Wining was half as smart as you, he wouldn't have ended up like this! "

Huining was still crying. Hearing these words, he felt wronged and angry, "Royal brother, if you didn't kill Senior alchemist Jane, how could there be so much trouble?"

Imperial Concubine Yun was shocked, "What?!"

The First Prince hurriedly covered Princess Huaining's mouth, afraid that she would mutter again. Imperial Concubine Yun was a smart person, she didn't even need to ask to guess what had happened.

She fiercely glared at him, so angry that she almost couldn't speak, "You, you actually dare to hide this from me …" You. With your brains, how are you going to fight against King Jing? Go back and reflect on it! "

The First Prince and Princess Huaining did not dare to linger. The person they feared the most was not their royal father, but this mufei.

Imperial Concubine Yun took a long time to calm down before she turned back to look at the imperial study.

Although the emperor's complexion was not bad, she still felt that there was a huge problem with the emperor's body. Outsiders didn't know this, but the person in charge of the imperial harem was very clear on the fact that it had been two or three months since the emperor had taken in his concubine.

The Emperor was a romantic person, and no matter how sick he was in the past, he had never been as nurturing as he was now. He had been a vegetarian for the past two to three months. He was afraid that things might go wrong this time.

Imperial Concubine Yun knew very well that if the Emperor were to ascend to the throne, King Jing would become the king of regents, and his power would reach the heavens. At that time, not to mention that they still had no chance to fight for the throne, even their existing power and status would not be preserved!

She had been fond of the Qi family, and had secretly made a couple of preparations in her mind. If the Emperor didn't agree to Wining's marriage, she would marry her son and Qiyufang. It seemed like the Qi Family could no longer be roped in, and Wining's reputation had been ruined. The marriage in the future would no longer be able to help them, so she had to find another marriage for her son as soon as possible!

Imperial Concubine Yun was a little anxious in her heart as she hurriedly left. At this moment, the Tianwu Emperor had already laid down. Actually, he couldn't sit up and talk so much tonight, he was relying solely on the pills.

Jun Jiuchen didn't immediately discuss the case. He helped the Celestial Emperor tuck in his cup, and retreated to the side to sit down.

He said, "Father, you look quite good today."

The Tianwu Emperor let out a long sigh and said, "If the few of you can let me have some peace of mind, then I, the Tianwu Emperor, will naturally have a good complexion!"

You?

This undoubtedly included Jun Jiuchen.

The reason why Jun Jiuchen said so was because of the Martial Emperor tomorrow. A trace of anger that was difficult to detect flashed through his ice-cold eyes. However, he didn't continue talking nor explain, but instead said, "I presume royal father already knows about the case, so I won't say anymore. Does royal father intend to condemn the Qi family now, or wait for the true culprit to return?"

When the Tianwu Emperor found out about the real culprit, he started to ponder about how to punish Huaining, and how to punish the Qi family. If the penalty was too severe, it would be exactly as the murderer intended. If the penalty was too light, it would be difficult to keep watch. Besides, Cheng Yifei would feel that he was protecting the Qi family even more.

The Tianwu Emperor pondered for a long time before asking, "Chen'er, what do you think?"

Jun Jiuchen's answer was unexpected; he was actually pleading for mercy on behalf of the Qi Family!

"Qi Yifang did this, but Qi Yifang was instigated by Huaining, and Huaining..." He sighed and said, "Wining is for Doberman again. "Today, the two of them spoke of each other's intentions in the court. Young Plum and Bamboo Horse, we are in love with each other. In my opinion, this is a rather pitiful and understandable situation."
