Surprise!!! The Regent Princess is actually a hidden boss

Chapter 145 The whole play must be performed

After the emperor heard the words of the empress dowager, a flash of inspiration suddenly occurred to him, as if something had flashed through his mind. He frowned and thought carefully about what was wrong.

After a while, he finally sorted it out, then looked up at the Queen Mother and sighed, "Mother, now it seems that the Xuanyue Sect is not simple. You said to kill the eldest daughter of the Chu family, but they killed the second daughter of the Chu family to fool you. And look at this piece of paper."

After saying this, she took out the piece of paper that Concubine De had given her and handed it to the Empress Dowager.

The Queen Mother was even more furious after seeing it, and slammed it on the table and said, "I actually paid someone to harm me! Investigate! I need to find out who is behind this Xuan Yue Sect!"

The emperor raised his hand and twisted his brows, lowered his head as if thinking, and said after a moment: "Now this matter has made everyone in the city know that you don't want the eldest daughter of the Chu family to marry the regent, and you are looking for someone to kill her. Who do you think will benefit from this incident in the end? So if you say that this Xuanyue Sect has nothing to do with Mo Yinan, I naturally don't believe it."

After he finished speaking, he looked up at the Queen Mother and said, "Mother, I told you before not to interfere in this matter anymore. Now... Hey! General Chu will definitely come to the palace to ask for an explanation. I still have to think about how to appease him."

"Are you blaming me for meddling in your affairs? I'm doing this all for your own good! Okay, okay, in that case, I won't care about it anymore and I can have peace!" The Queen Mother snorted coldly.

The emperor saw the queen mother like this, but he had no intention of comforting her at this time. This matter was caused by her. If she hadn't found someone from Xuanyue Sect, naturally this wouldn't have happened.

He seemed to have forgotten that he had been in office for thirteen years and was no longer the same person he was back then. If he didn't want the Queen Mother to interfere, how could the Queen Mother do this?

Then he stood up and said, "Don't think too much, mother. You should have a good rest. I will take care of this matter."

After saying this, he walked out without waiting for the Queen Mother to speak.

She said to Nanny Ning who was standing outside, "Take good care of the Queen Mother. Don't let her worry too much."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will definitely take good care of the Empress Dowager." Nanny Ning leaned forward slightly and said.

Then he glanced at the box beside him and continued, "Your Majesty, what should we do with the wooden box?"

The emperor turned around and looked at the wooden box. The blood on the bottom had dried, and the area around the box was black and red. It was very creepy.

Then he turned around and said, "Let's find a place to bury him properly."

When he was almost at the Yangxin Palace, he saw someone coming to report: "Your Majesty, General Chu is here."

The emperor felt even more annoyed after hearing this. He sighed, slowed down his pace, and said to Zhang Fu, "Go to the Situ family and ask the head of the Situ clan to come to the palace later."

"Yes." Zhang Fu responded and walked quickly in the opposite direction.

When the emperor arrived at the Yangxin Palace, he saw Chu Jun standing in front of the door. Seeing the emperor coming, he took two steps forward and knelt down, saying, "Your Majesty, please make the decision for me!"

"You get up first and come in to talk." said the emperor, and then walked straight towards the Yangxin Palace.

After the emperor came in and sat down, Chu Jun followed him in. He walked to the center of the hall, knelt down and repeated what he had just said. He looked sad, his eyes were red, and he looked very heartbroken.

When Chu Jun and Yunying were discussing the layout of the mansion earlier, Mo Yinan sent someone to pass on a message, saying that the Queen Mother had originally wanted someone to kill Chu Qianyu, but later the killer killed Chu Xiaozhu for some unknown reason.

How could Chu Jun believe this? Chu Xiaozhu and Chu Yutao were taken away by Mo Yinan two days ago. What kind of place is the Regent Palace? How could the killer enter easily?

Before he could speak, the man handed him another letter, saying that he should burn it after reading it. Chu Xiaozhu's body had been returned to her yard.

After Chu Jun opened the letter, he saw the following words written on it:

'Please read this letter carefully and burn it, General Chu. I learned that the Queen Mother had hired a killer from Xuanyue Sect to kill Chu Qianyu, but I happened to know it in advance and I was acquainted with Xuanyue Sect, so I came up with this idea. I replaced Chu Qianyu with Chu Xiaozhu and spread the news that the Queen Mother had hired someone to kill Chu Qianyu.

If we don't do this, Chu Qianyu will be killed. I hope General Chu will make his own decision. If possible, please cooperate with me and go to the palace to ask the emperor for an explanation. I think after this incident, the Queen Mother or the Emperor will not do anything to Chu Qianyu again in the short term. When she marries me, I will protect her.'

After reading the letter, Chu Jun realized that it was a serious matter, so he did not let Yunying see it. He walked straight to the table, took out a fire starter, and burned the letter.

Although he felt a little upset when he first learned that Chu Xiaozhu was killed, but thinking of what she and Chu Yutao had done, since she didn't treat Qianqian as her own sister and she had no blood relationship with him, there was no need for him to waste his feelings on them.

So he figured it out quickly, and then he hurried to the palace as the regent said. After all, in the eyes of the emperor, it was his own daughter who died. The drama still had to be played out in full.

The emperor looked at Chu Jun kneeling in the center of the hall, not knowing what to say for a moment. After a moment of silence, he finally spoke slowly: "I have already asked someone to investigate this matter, but this matter is definitely not what it seems on the surface."

"If it was really done by the Queen Mother, it would not have been known to everyone. This must have been framed by someone. They want to sow discord between us, the monarch and his subjects. I hope you don't fall into their trap."

Chu Jun kowtowed and said in a sad voice: "But now there are rumors outside that the Queen Mother wants to kill my eldest daughter. When I heard about it, I was terrified. Fortunately, my eldest daughter is still fine. But the people in the second daughter's courtyard came to report... saying... saying that it was... her..."

Chu Jun choked up and whispered, looking so sad that he couldn't speak.

"General Chu, I know you are heartbroken after losing your daughter. Don't worry, I will investigate this matter thoroughly and give you an explanation."

"But my wife and daughter just entered the palace two days ago, and my eldest daughter was secretly poisoned by the queen. If the regent had not brought a doctor to detoxify her, my eldest daughter might have been killed. Now there are rumors that the queen mother is looking for a killer. I have to believe that they may not know my eldest daughter, so my second daughter was killed."

"Is it really true that the people in the palace don't want my daughter to marry the Regent?" Chu Jun looked at the emperor and said in a sad tone.

"General Chu! What do you mean?" The emperor listened to him speaking more and more recklessly, and even began to doubt his meaning. His face instantly darkened and he said angrily.

"Your Majesty should understand what I mean. If you don't want to, just tell me directly. The Regent will not disobey your order and insist on marrying my eldest daughter." After Chu Jun said this, he knocked his head heavily to the ground.

The emperor was so angry that he stood up and pointed at him and said, "General Chu, do you know that what you just said is enough for me to punish you for disrespect! But I will let you go for the time being because of your loss of your beloved daughter. If you say these things again, don't blame me for not forgiving you!"

"Someone, take General Chu away!"

Soon two guards came in and took Chu Jun out. "Your Majesty!" Chu Jun shouted.

The emperor turned around without looking at him. He waited until the others left before turning around.
