My God of Wealth is a Short-lived Ghost

Chapter 298 The drama ends

Zhao Jinfang nodded without asking any more questions, but clapped his hands. The next moment, Huang Tizhong led a team of guards into the palace.

He raised his hand slightly and the guards dispersed and stood behind each minister. They drew the swords from their waists and held them tightly in their hands. The ministers who were sitting there panicked instantly and turned to look at Zhao Jinfang, "Your Majesty, what do you mean?"

Zhao Jinfang waved his hand calmly when he saw this and said, "My dear ministers, you have misunderstood. An assassin broke into the palace tonight and has not been caught yet. I did this to protect the safety of my dear ministers. Please be patient."

Zhao Jinfang remained silent as if waiting for something. Seeing Zhao Jinfang no longer speaking, everyone lowered their heads silently. The hall suddenly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Seeing this, Wan Sutong swallowed nervously, thinking to herself, "Is it about to start?"

After hearing this, Zhao Jinghua silently held Wan Sutong's hand

Not long after, the minister beside Wan Yanzhong suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood and fell to the ground. Wan Yanzhong was frightened and his back was soaked with cold sweat. He wanted to get up but felt weak all over. He turned his head and saw that the ministers sitting beside him were also struggling to get up.

Seeing the effects of the drugs on everyone, Zhao Jingcheng curled his lips slightly and fell to the ground without caring about anything, pretending to be unconscious.

Zhao Jinfang stood up immediately after hearing the sound, "Jingcheng!" He fixed his eyes on Zhao Jinghua and spoke with anger, "If I remember correctly, you, Jinghua, were in charge of this palace banquet, right? How are you going to explain such an oversight?"

As soon as the voice fell, the commander of the Imperial Guards ran in from outside the palace holding a wooden waist badge. "Your Majesty! I found a waist badge on the road leading to the Imperial Kitchen. It was engraved with the name of the Regent Princess. But when I arrived at the Regent's Mansion, the Regent Princess had hanged herself and left a letter." After saying that, he waved his hand and the Imperial Guards carried Chu Wan's body into the palace.

Wan Sutong's pupils froze when she saw this.

Zhao Jinfang pretended to be furious and slammed the table, "Show it up!"

Wan Yanzhong used his lifelong acting skills at this time, struggling to stumble to Chu Wan's body. He knew it was not Wan Sutong, but seeing her identical appearance, coupled with the purple marks on Chu Wan's neck, Wan Yanzhong couldn't help crying. He sat down beside Chu Wan with trembling hands, bent down and hugged Chu Wan's head, "My little girl!"

Wan Sutong's thoughts suddenly came back to her mind when she heard Wan Yanzhong's cry.

At this time, Zhao Jinfang slammed the letter in his hand on the table and said, "Zhao Jinghua! What else do you have to explain? I thought you were innocent, but I didn't expect that you would threaten the life of Prime Minister Wan to force the daughter of the Right Prime Minister!"

Zhao Jinghua did not stand up after hearing this, but looked up at Zhao Jinfang calmly and said, "If you want to accuse someone, you can always find a pretext."

In the distance, Wan Yanzhong also knelt down and said at the right moment, "Your Majesty! Please make the decision for my little girl!"

Zhao Jinghua sneered and then slowly stood up. "Since you said it was me, do you have any other evidence besides this badge and this letter? Now that Wan Sutong is dead, there is no evidence. How come you don't know if someone else didn't like me and deliberately killed Wan Sutong to frame me?"

Seeing Zhao Jinghua's increasingly pressing tone, Zhao Jinfang immediately slammed the table and stood up, "Zhao Jinghua! Stop making unfounded arguments! You are increasingly looking down on me! How dare you shout at me!"

Wan Sutong took a deep breath and realized that it was her turn to perform. She slowly stood up and spoke in the same voice as Chu Wan. She spoke without blushing or beating her heart, "Your Majesty! I am willing to guarantee with my life that I heard with my own ears that the Regent King forced the Princess to help him rebel and ascend the throne!"

When Zhao Jinghua heard this, he turned his head and looked at Wan Sutong with disbelief in his eyes, but there was a trace of worry in his eyes, "Chu Wan! I treat you well! Why do you slander me like this!" While speaking, he sent a message to Wan Sutong, "Don't be afraid, Sutong, I won't die. Go ahead, Zhao Jinfang will get suspicious."

Wan Sutong swallowed and hesitated for a moment, then finally took out a short knife and stabbed it an inch away from Zhao Jinghua's heart.

Seeing this, Zhao Jingyu exclaimed, "Brother!" and tried his best to get up, but it was no use. He could only watch.

0533 was sitting in the space, eating melon seeds and watching the drama on the screen. "Crack, ugh, so lively, crack." The next moment, before 0533 could spit out the melon seed shells, he heard Wan Sutong's roar from the space, "0533!"

0533 spit out the melon seed shells and hurried to the operating table. "Oh! I forgot to turn on the mute mode! Sorry, host!" Then he turned on the mute mode.

Wan Yanzhong grinned from a distance and quickly sent a message to Wan Sutong, "Nannan, you are so cruel, be careful, don't really kill my son-in-law."

Zhao Jinghua gushed out a large amount of blood from his mouth. The next moment, he frowned slightly, covered his heart with his left hand, and fell down on the chair.

Zhao Jinfang nodded with satisfaction at the situation and said, "Chu Wan, well done!" Then he raised his hand slightly and said, "Come here! Take Zhao Jinghua to jail!"

Wan Sutong took a step back and stared closely at Zhao Jinghua's every move. Seeing the blood pouring out of Zhao Jinghua's mouth, Wan Sutong was anxious and knew that it was because of her lack of experience that she had scratched Zhao Jinghua's heart.

The guards were about to take action when they heard the voice of Eunuch Chen from outside the palace: "Let's see who dares!"

Eunuch Chen led nearly a hundred imperial guards into the palace. The next moment, the commander of the imperial guards suddenly drew his sword and put it on Huang Tizhong's neck.

At the same time, the Royal Guards pulled the bows in their hands and shot the guards behind all the ministers.

Zhao Jinfang's pupils suddenly shrank upon seeing this, and he looked at Eunuch Chen in disbelief, "Chen Ye! What are you doing!"

Eunuch Chen did not answer but looked down at Chu Wan on the ground. After seeing the bracelet on Chu Wan's wrist, he breathed a sigh of relief and took out a porcelain bottle and threw it to Wan Yanzhong. "The antidote, please take it, Right Prime Minister, and distribute it to everyone in turn."

Then he led the Imperial Guards to approach Zhao Jinfang step by step, "My son, His Majesty is so tired that he is confused. You don't even know how to send His Majesty back to rest. How can you be a personal steward?"

After hearing this, Eunuch Wang didn't even give Zhao Jinfang a chance to react before knocking him unconscious with a knife. Then he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I'm sorry."

Wan Sutong's eyes gradually turned red. She wiped the blood from the corner of Zhao Jinghua's mouth with her sleeves with trembling hands. "Jinghua... did I stab you wrong? It hurts, right?" After saying that, she conjured up a pill and put it into Zhao Jinghua's mouth. "I'm sorry."

Zhao Jinghua swallowed the pill and chuckled. He raised his hand and touched Wan Sutong's head. "Madam, you don't need to apologize. It doesn't hurt." After that, he pulled out the dagger with force. The next moment, blood gushed out from the wound.

Wan Sutong was about to cover Zhao Jinghua's wound with her hand, but she saw that the wound, which was still bleeding, was slowly healing.

But when she looked up, she saw that Zhao Jinghua's lips were still pale and bloodless. Wan Sutong was about to ask when she saw Zhao Jinghua put the dagger into his spiritual sea with a loving look in his eyes.

Wan Sutong raised her hand and patted Zhao Jinghua's head, then said angrily, "You love-brained bastard, I stabbed you and you put the knife away like a treasure."

After hearing this, Zhao Jinghua's peach blossom eyes smiled like a bright moon, making people unable to help but sink into it.

Eunuch Chen coughed lightly and said in a serious tone, "Your Majesty has been deceived by the traitor because he has worked hard day and night for our Great Zhao Kingdom. You gentlemen don't have to take it to heart." After that, he kicked Zhao Jingcheng's butt and said, "Your Highness, are you sleeping here?"

Zhao Jingcheng chuckled and then patted the non-existent dust on his body. "Eunuch Chen is joking."

The ministers in the palace knew it well at this moment. No matter whether what happened today was true or false, or who planned it, it no longer mattered. What mattered was that Zhao Jinghua was the final winner, and he must not stand on the wrong side.
