Shangguan Wanning raised her eyes and looked at Mu Jingrui, and finally shook her head gently.
"Only this one..."
"What about you and Sun Jinyao?"
Shangguan Wanning felt a little guilty again and could only remain silent.
"Brother Yao and I are not what you think."
"Because of your mother?"
The affairs of the Yiyong Marquis' Mansion are always the obstacles that they have taken.
Mu Jingrui felt helpless, but he couldn't change this fact.
"If your mother saw these things, would she have changed her mind to me?"
Mu Jingrui pointed to the box taken out of the Qin Prince's Mansion.
He had seen the things inside just now while waiting for Shangguan Wanning.
In addition to a letter written to Xiao Zhenting by the new patriarch of the barbarian tribe, there are also some letters from him and the old patriarch.
It is clearly shown above that Xiao Zhenting and the Barbarian Clan have been in contact for a long time. In the last battle between Mu Jingrui and the Barbarian Clan, Xiao Zhenting secretly sent a lot of supplies as support.
Moreover, the righteous Hou Zheng Guoxun and his son Zheng Binghang did not commit suicide at all, but were killed by the killer lurking in the capital by Xiao Zhenting, using witchcraft, and pretended to create the illusion of suicide.
Because from beginning to end, Zheng Guoxun was working with Xiao Zhenting.
Not long ago, the old patriarch passed away. The new patriarch's successor discovered this secret and used it as a threat to continue to get Xiao Zhenting's support.
"Jing Rui, I really don't know my mother..."
Shangguan Wanning was completely unsure. She was exhausted and her face was a little pale.
Her appearance made Mu Jingrui feel heartbroken.
"Forget it, Ning'er, don't think too much. I know you are very filial to your mother. I will try my best to let her accept me. As long as your heart is with me."
Mu Jingrui tightened Shangguan Wanning's hand and hugged her in his arms again.
Shangguan Wanning's emotions gradually calmed down. She leaned on Mu Jingrui's chest for a long time, and suddenly she seemed to remember something and pushed Mu Jingrui away.
"So what about my heart with you? Haven't you changed your mind?"
"My heart changed?"
Mu Jingrui's face darkened. He would never accept such false charges. "When did I change my mind?"
"I've been wiping you sweat and I've come to you, but you didn't refuse. Don't you admit it?"
Mu Jingrui was stunned and immediately thought of Yin Yuqing.
"I can explain this."
"Don't listen." Shangguan Wanning covered her ears willfully.
Mu Jingrui sighed softly.
"Okay, then I'll tell you about this later. Anyway, don't think about it. I'll give this evidence to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince first, and then..."
"snort!"
Shangguan Wanning actually wanted Mu Jingrui to continue talking. Even if she said a few good words to coax her, she would feel more comfortable.
Unexpectedly, this emotional idiot really stopped it.
She snorted heavily, turned around and left.
"Ninger..."
"Don't follow me. I don't want to talk to you."
Seeing Shangguan Wanning get on the carriage angrily, Mu Jingrui chased after a few steps and had to stop, secretly escorting her home, and then he left with peace of mind as she entered the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Mu Jingrui sent the things overnight and handed them over to Xiao Yujue.
"I didn't expect that he really colluded with the barbarians."
"Your Highness, there is something I've been thinking about along the way, but I haven't figured it out."
Mu Jingrui hesitated a little, and his eyebrows frowned. "The barbarians are just small countries. If they were not for the witchcraft, it would be difficult to have a foothold on the border. Its strength is very small for the Central Plains. Why did the King of Qin want it?
Secretly assisting them?"
Even with the support of the barbarians, it seems that there is no help for Xiao Zhenting to fight for the throne.
Xiao Yujue smiled faintly, with a smile on his eyes.
"Have you ever thought that the reason why the King of Qin helped the barbarians was not to rely on their power, but just hoped that you would die. As for the reason..."
Xiao Yujue didn't continue talking, but Mu Jingrui also understood.
For women.
For the woman named Shangguan Wanning.
"Now, what is your Highness going to do?"
"Since we have the fatal evidence of the King of Qin, we should remove him as soon as possible without further ado."
Mu Jingrui thought about it carefully but did not object.
The next morning in the morning court, Xiao Yujue asked his confidant minister to submit the evidence to the emperor.
After seeing this, Long Yan was furious and immediately captured Xiao Zhenting, who was praying for blessings in the Three Immortals Temple.
In front of the ironclad evidence, Xiao Zhenting's face was ashamed.
"Father, my son is confused for a while, please give me kindness."
Xiao Zhenting was originally the emperor's favorite child, and his careful cultivation of him even surpassed the prince.
However, since the incident between Concubine Liu and Taifu Sun, the emperor will remember the deep affection that he was disappointed when he saw him.
At this moment, looking at Xiao Zhenting who was huddled on the ground and tremblingly, he was even more angry.
"I have always treated you well. Not only do you not be loyal to the country, but you also do such things that harm others and do not benefit yourself. If I let you go, what qualifications do you have to rule the world?"
The emperor's face turned pale, and a raging anger ignited in his eyes.
"People come, drag them out and get sent to death row."
Xiao Zhenting was dragged down by the guards, his voice gradually drifted away, and all the civil and military officials in the court just watched helplessly, and no one stood up to express his love.
Xiao Yujue and Mu Jingrui exchanged glances with each other and remained silent.
The fact that Xiao Zhenting was imprisoned in death row was like a breeze that quickly blew through the streets and alleys of the capital.
The people were talking.
This is the first and only prince who has ended up like this since its founding.
Those ministers who were originally dependent on Xiao Zhenting were also in danger. In the afternoon of the same day, someone extended an olive branch to Xiao Yujue, hoping to serve under his command.
Zheng Binghong took Shangguan Wanning and his daughter to the ancestral grave of the Zheng family in the suburbs to worship and burn incense to his father and two younger brothers.
In order to safeguard the little bit of dignity left by Zheng Guoxun, Mu Jingrui took out the part of Zheng Guoxun and his son when submitting Xiao Zhenting's evidence of guilt.
"Brother, it turns out that my father died... so miserable..." Mrs. Shangguan cried. She originally thought that her father committed suicide, but she didn't expect that she was killed and silenced.
"Little sister, the past is over. Ning'er is very brave. You should be relieved to seek justice for your father and brother."
Zheng Binghong looked at Shangguan Wanning beside her, and she looked a little haggard.
"Some things are destined. It is a fact that the Zheng family's defeat is not worthy of others. Now that the great revenge has been avenged, let those grudges... disappear with the wind."
