Do you think I can't bear it?
"Speak."
Ji Yunshu looked at the memorial on the floor, "How was this memorial sent to me? I hope Your Majesty … knows! "
Knows!
Ah!
Her words were a reminder.
Qizhen Emperor frowned, his expression tense.
Then, he waved his hand.
"Take her away!"
The guards escorted Ji Yunshu away.
Her words reverberated in Qizhen Emperor's mind for a long time.
He turned to look at the exquisite screen, his gaze deepening.
Soon, the news of Ji Yunshu being locked up in the Ministry of Justice's prison spread.
Zhangzhi Hall.
Jing Xuan heard the news from a young maid.
She heard that the newly appointed Lord Ji had disguised herself as a man and was exposed by Lord Xing. Then, a memorial was sent to His Majesty. The Emperor was enraged and locked Lord Ji in prison.
Jing Xuan pulled Duan 'er over and asked her again in detail.
Duan 'er replied, "The news has spread in the palace."
"What about my Imperial Brother? Did he enter the palace? "
"Prince Rong did not enter the palace."
"How is that possible? Teacher Ji brought about a fatal disaster. My Imperial Brother would not ignore it. " Jing Xuan was confused and worried. She looked outside cautiously and pulled Duan 'er over, whispering, "Duan' er, you are the only person I can trust. If I'm not wrong, there will be a big storm in the capital soon. I need your help."
"Your Highness."
"Think of a way to secretly bring the news of Wei Yi being locked up in the palace to my Imperial Brother."
Ah!
Duan 'er trembled, "Your Highness, this is impossible. Not only can you leave, this servant can't either, let alone bring the news out of the palace."
"Didn't you say that many palace maids would ask young eunuchs to sell embroidery outside the palace? Then use this to bring the news out. Duan 'er, only you can help me now. You must do it. "
Duan 'er deliberated.
She was wavering.
Gritting her teeth, she nodded, "Alright, this servant knows what to do."
Without delay, she hurried off.
Jing Xuan waited in the hall for a long time. Duan 'er did not return until nightfall.
She grew increasingly anxious.
Suddenly …
Creak!
The door opened.
The person who entered was not Duan 'er, but Concubine Xiao.
After not seeing her for two days, Concubine Xiao's complexion had become increasingly pale and she was supported by two palace maids.
Even though the cold wind had entered her body, she was still dressed like gold and jade. She wore a dark purple imperial concubine robe embroidered with a few very bright peonies, like bloody bloodstains.
Jing Xuan looked into her mother's eyes, which were as deep as ice.
He took two steps back.
"Don't wait anymore!" Concubine Xiao said.
"What did you do to her?"
"She's just a lowly servant."
"What the hell did you do to her?" he roared.
Concubine Xiao looked at the agitated Jing Xuan, feeling both disappointed and angry. She pushed aside the two palace maids who were supporting her and walked towards Jing Xuan. She stretched out her ice-cold hands to hold Jing Xuan's trembling cheeks and narrowed her sharp eyes. "This seat really thought that you were obedient and sensible. I was very relieved, but it turns out … you've always harbored resentment in your heart. No matter how this official treats you, your heart will always be with someone else. This seat has truly raised a good daughter!"
He gritted his teeth!
Jing Xuan's expression was unyielding as she continued to ask, "What did you do to Duan 'er?"
"What?" Concubine Xiao sneered. "Those who oppose this seat will never have a good ending."
Immediately, a young eunuch entered.
The young eunuch carried a tray in his hands. The item on the tray was covered with a red cloth, bulging high.
The item was placed on the table.
Jing Xuan suddenly realized something. Her lips instantly turned white, her whole body trembled, and her eyes reddened as she stared at the item on the tray.
She bit her lip.
Concubine Xiao held her face and forced Jing Xuan to look at herself with her crimson eyes. "You want to rebel against this seat, against your imperial brother, and even collude with outsiders to rebel. If this seat didn't give birth to you, even a hundred deaths wouldn't be enough for you."
"Then kill me! Kill me! "Jing Xuan was so agitated that her whole body trembled. Her face and ears were red, and tears fell.
"Do you think this seat doesn't have the heart?"
"No, of course you have the heart to do so. In order to achieve your goal, you would not hesitate to kill everyone in the world. Kill me. As long as I'm dead, you won't have to worry anymore. Go ahead and kill me! Kill me! "
"Slap!"
A slap landed.
Jing Xuan fell heavily to the ground.
"Do you really want to rebel?" Concubine Xiao shouted.
Jing Xuan laughed crazily. She clenched her fists, and her sharp nails seemed to sink deep into her flesh.
Blood dripped!
Concubine Xiao hated Jing Xuan to the extreme, but … she couldn't bring herself to kill her.
"Cough, cough …"
"Your Ladyship?"
Concubine Xiao coughed violently. Coupled with the anger in her head, she felt very uncomfortable.
She pointed at the person on the ground and sternly ordered, "From now on, no one is allowed to let her out. Every word and action must be reported to this seat. If anyone dares to say one more word to her, your fate will be the same as Duan 'er's. Cough, cough …"
She then left with the help of someone.
The door was tightly shut and locked.
There was only one candle left in the hall.
After a long time, Jing Xuan got up from the ground and walked with difficulty to the tray. She reached out with trembling hands to grab the red cloth and slowly lifted it …
The red cloth fell to the ground, revealing a bloody head.
"Ugh!"
She suddenly fell backwards and hit the huge screen behind her.
Thud!
She fell to the ground again.
She dug her fingers into her hair and pulled it tightly.
"Ah!"
She screamed wildly.
It was close to madness.
… …
Rong Estate.
The news of Ji Yunshu being locked up in the Ministry of Justice's prison had already arrived.
Jing Rong was very calm and did not take any action to save her.
He stood in the courtyard as if waiting for someone.
After a while, Qin Shiyu arrived.
"Your Highness, what's the situation now?"
"This prince has already sent people to investigate. Jing Yi went to see Ji Li today. They're moving very quickly. They've already started to secretly deploy people both inside and outside the city. However, their movements are very small and hard to detect. If this prince's prediction is correct, the city gates will be closed in seven days."
Qin Shiyu was startled. "So Prince Yi is really going to besiege the palace?"
"That day will eventually come. It's just that it was brought forward. It seems that this prince has really forced him."
Finally, he was forced to besiege the palace.
This was within the plan.
But …
Qin Shiyu asked, "What about Teacher Ji?"
At this point, Jing Rong's eyes darkened. "Before entering the palace, she ordered people to remind this prince three times not to try to rescue her. She must be worried that the court officials will blame her and this prince will also be imprisoned. Fortunately, His Majesty only locked her up in the Ministry of Justice's prison and did not give the order to kill her. We only have seven days. Within seven days, as long as the Kong family's troops from the northwest and Hanzhou arrive, everything will be resolved."
