"See Princess."

"My father-in-law, please wake me up, but what's going on in the palace?"

"Your Majesty will give your orders back to the princess."

Sheng Zhiyao was about to kneel down to receive the order, when her father-in-law raised his hand to help her up.

"Your Majesty said that the princess does not need to kneel down."

"Yes, is there something wrong with Grandpa Huang at such a late hour?"

"Back to the princess, tonight Prime Minister Qi and his people went to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment. They were assassinated and injured by a man in black at the door of the prison."

"Oh? Prime Minister Qi was injured? He's still in front of the Criminal Department? Then why didn't the Criminal Department send someone to investigate?" Sheng Zhiyao asked.

"This is the reason why the servant was ordered to come to declare the princess. After Prime Minister Qi was injured, he insisted that the assassin was sent by the princess to kill him and the head of the royal court, so he asked the Minister of Punishment Yang Xiyuan to hand over the head of the royal court to him.

He, but Yang Xiyuan, the minister of the Ministry of Punishment, refused, so Prime Minister Qi argued with Yang Xiyuan at the door of the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, and the two had a big quarrel, and they started fighting at the door of the prison of the Ministry of Punishment."

"Oh, I see, then father-in-law, do you know who will win and who will lose in a fight between these two?"

"This servant doesn't know. His Majesty just ordered the servant to inform the princess to enter the palace, and also asked the servant to bring a message to the princess."

"Yes, father-in-law, please tell me."

"His Majesty asked you to rush to the Ministry of Justice as soon as possible to bring out the leader of the Royal Court. Don't let him die. After all, this is a matter of national concern. If someone with an intention to get hold of it will be in trouble."

"Yes, I know."

After the father-in-law left, Sheng Zhiyao ordered Mei'er to inform the old Marquis, while Zhu'er and Ju'er went to the Criminal Department to bring out the head of the Wang Court.

When Zhu'er and Ju'er arrived at the Punishment Department, the entire Punishment Department prison was in chaos, but Zhu'er and Ju'er successfully brought the head of the court back to the Hou Mansion.

In the Marquis Mansion, Mr. Sheng, the old Marquis, had been waiting for a long time. When he saw the Chief Wang being carried back, he hurried over to greet him. He was very worried when he saw the Chief Wang being unconscious.

"Old Marquis." Zhu'er and Ju'er saluted the old Marquis.

"Well, you go back to Zhiyao first and just leave him to me."

"Yes, that slave has resigned."

After Zhu'er and Ju'er left, only the old Marquis and Butler Li were left in the lobby. He looked at the head of the court who was lying on the bed and sighed: "Alas..."

"Master Hou, how is the leader of the Royal Academy?"

"What else can I do? Zhiyao has already given me detoxification pills. He is just unconscious now, but he must have been beaten severely."

"Then... you won't die, right?"

"You can't die as long as I'm here."

After the old Marquis finished speaking, the head of the Courtyard Wang who had been unconscious finally reacted. He coughed a few times and slowly opened his eyes.

After Wang Yuan opened his eyes and saw the old Marquis, he was so frightened that he rolled down from the bed. He looked at the old Marquis in horror and said: "Don't kill me, please."

The old marquis hurriedly stepped forward to support the head of the court: "Don't worry, I don't want your life, I just want you to file a complaint."

"Ah? Go and file a complaint?" Chief Wang was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the old marquis actually asked him to file a complaint.

The old Marquis snorted coldly: "How is it? Still unwilling? Do you know what Qi Xiang did while you were in coma? Haven't you always been in cahoots with him? Did you know that he was assassinated tonight?"

Chief Wang nodded.

"Don't you always like to frame others? This time I want to see how you can clear yourself of suspicion. Do you think he will let you go?"

"I didn't!" President Wang quickly argued: "I didn't send anyone to assassinate him."

"Yes, you haven't, but there are so many people around you, do you think they will speak for you? Who do you think will believe what you say?" The old marquis's face was very serious, and the face of the head of the court suddenly changed.

It became extremely pale.

"I...I..." Wang Yuanshou stammered. He didn't dare to admit it, but he was also afraid of admitting it.

"I think you should cooperate obediently. Otherwise, don't blame me for not remembering the old relationship. I don't need to pursue the matter this time, but I won't be so lucky next time."

Hearing what the old Marquis said, the head of the court quickly kowtowed and confessed: "Master Marquis, Master Marquis, they are all Prime Ministers of Qi. They are all what he asked me to do. It was he who asked me to poison the Queen. After it was done, he still wanted to

It was Prime Minister Qi who threatened me by asking me to falsely accuse the Marquis and the princess."

The old Marquis was very satisfied when he saw the Wang Yuan leader's attitude of admitting his guilt.

"Well, since you have confessed, just write down in black and white how Prime Minister Qi instigated you to poison, then I don't need your life. I will heal your injuries, but you also know that your injuries are very serious.

, you need to rest for a few days, so you stay in the Marquis Mansion to recuperate for the time being, and when the injury recovers, I will send you back to the Mansion."

Chief Wang quickly thanked them. He knew very well that he had really escaped this disaster this time, but he was still confused as to why the old marquis wanted to save him? Did he really not bear grudges against them? Isn't that right?

Is it like his style? Does the old Marquis still care about Prime Minister Qi’s face?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but want to test the old Marquis, and asked: "I wonder why the Marquis wanted to save the little one?"

"You don't need to know that much, you just need to know that I saved you to protect you. As for why I saved you, there is no need to explain." The old Marquis' tone did not allow for discussion.

Chief Wang stopped asking questions, knowing that his questions would not be answered.

Butler Li brought a pen, ink, paper and inkstone and put it on the table. Wang Yuanshou did not write any ink, so he just picked up the pen and wrote down everything that happened on the paper and made his fingerprints.

After reading the accusations, the old Marquis kept it in his sleeves: "Okay, I'll leave first, you have a good rest." After saying this, the old Marquis left the Marquis Mansion.

Butler Li also took Mr. Wang to his room.

Only Butler Li and Wang Yuanshou were left in the room.

"Master Wang, Shenghou Mansion is now the safest place in the capital. You can rest peacefully and recuperate."

Chief Wang nodded.

He knew that Shenghou Mansion was safe now, and he knew that once he left, his life would be in danger, but he was also worried about the safety of his own home.

Butler Li seemed to notice his worries: "Don't worry, Mr. Wang, the old Marquis of your house has sent someone to protect you."

Hearing what Butler Li said, Chief Wang was relieved a lot.

"Thank you!" Dean Wang sincerely thanked Butler Li.

Butler Li waved his hand, gently closed the door and exited the room.

Wang Yuanshou was lying on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.

He knew that this matter was far from over, it was just the beginning, and Prime Minister Qi was not an easy person to bring down.

In the imperial study, Sheng Zhiyao and Mr. Sheng had already arrived.

Old Marquis Sheng handed the fold in his hand to Eunuch Cui, and Eunuch Cui presented the fold to His Majesty.

After His Majesty read the memorial, he angrily threw it on the table.

"Humph, I underestimated him." The emperor said coldly.

"Your Majesty, don't be anxious. His power is too great after all. You just need to wait for the opportunity." Sheng Lixin comforted him.

When the emperor heard what Sheng Lixin said, he felt a little calmer.

"Okay, now that the head of the court has pleaded guilty, he is an insignificant role. Next, it is time to deal with the issue of Prime Minister Qi and his party. What are you going to do?" The emperor looked at Sheng Lixin and asked.

Sheng Lixin lowered his head, was silent for a while and raised his head and said: "Your Majesty, since the head of the court has confessed, it is a capital crime. It is better to make it true, so that Prime Minister Qi has nothing to say, and also makes him relax a little."
