Chapter 267 The first son vs. the regent
"It was he who controlled the snake to the tent in my palace?" Yun Qingyan said coldly with a blank expression on his face, "Tell me, who asked you to do this?"
"Cao, Caomin really doesn't. I don't know what the princess is saying. I just went up the mountain to hunt, and I picked up this whistle by accident. As a result, I was caught for no reason and came here."
The big man knelt on the ground tremblingly, and his voice stammered.
Lingyun narrowed her eyes and scolded, "You dare to lie in front of the princess. Do you know where this is? Royal Hunting Ground! Therefore, breaking into the Royal Hunting Ground is a death sentence."
"No, no, no, princess, please spare my life! I just want to make some money, but I didn't want to do anything bad. I didn't know that this is the Royal Hunting Ground. I... can give everything, please beg the princess for kindness, the grass people don't want to die!"
Yun Qingyan curled her lips coldly, "Take him down, just a small punishment and a great commandment."
Even if he explains, he can't say anything useful. As for the person behind the scenes, it seems that he doesn't need to think at all.
The man was suppressed by the guards, and this tent was not suitable for her to live in. Lingyun and Lanxi took people to clean up her new residence.
Only Yun Qingyan and Mo Zijue were left in the house.
"Why don't you attack Yun Yingtian?" Mo Zijue pondered for a moment and finally asked this question that was related to the royal secrets.
Yun Qingyan glanced at Mo Zijue with a faint look, and opened her red lips lightly, "He still holds an imperial edict left by the ancestor of the emperor in his hand."
Mo Zijue looked at her side face, without saying a word, and listened silently to her.
"The old emperor was addicted to beauty and wasted all day long, and his body was deficient. He was almost out of control. At that time, my grandfather and I had already controlled a little of the power in the court, even including the military power of Zhongli's family."
"The old emperor can't do anything to me for the time being. But he was worried that his beloved son, Yun Yingtian, would not be able to hold the throne firmly, so he wrote an imperial edict, which said that my brother and I were plotting against the previous emperor and poisoned him... Anyway, it was a series of false frames."
Mo Zijue looked at Yun Qingyan and asked in confusion, "With the princess's current rights, even if Yun Yingtian takes out this imperial edict, he may not be able to do anything to the princess, right?"
Yun Qingyan narrowed her eyes and looked at Mo Zijue with a scrutiny, "You know a lot!"
"Know some." Mo Zijue said modestly.
"Indeed, Yun Yingtian is easy to deal with for me now, but I am worried that if the imperial edict falls into the hands of those who are interested, my brother's throne will not be stable, which will be a disaster. So let Yun Yingtian be arrogant for a while."
Hearing Yun Qingyan's words, Mo Zijue opened his eyes wide in surprise and pursed his lower lip, "Do you want your brother to be the emperor?"
"What, can't I be my younger brother?!"
"No, I just thought that with the princess' ability, I would want to be the queen myself."
“…”
Yun Qingyan narrowed her phoenix eyes slightly and stared at Mo Zijue like this, which made him feel a little uncomfortable, but also a little happy. He liked the feeling of being watched by her.
"I don't want to be an emperor. I'm exhausted. I'm still afraid that my beauty will grow old before I grow old!"
Mo Zijue nodded, "That's good! But isn't the princess worried that the seventh prince is not capable of being a good emperor?"
"Do you think my brother is a mediocre and incompetent person? Hum?" Yun Qingyan narrowed her eyes slightly and asked with a slight threat.
