Chapter 274 “Hexiao, You Are the Heir to the Throne.”
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56A fifth-rank official was not a big deal at the imperial court, but he was an official in the imperial capital after all, and he was a director with real power in charge of something in the Ministry of Punishments, of the same level as Jian Xubai before he was transferred to the Council of Censorate. Moreover, as soon as Su Bofeng’s case was exposed, it would be brought to trial at the imperial court. How would the Ministry of Punishments dare to delay it?
Therefore, they would never send an old or weak man to finish this job. After all, Qingzhou was far away from the imperial capital. If an old director or somebody in poor health took this business trip, as he wouldn’t have a break on the way to go and return, perhaps before the prisoners arrived, he might have fallen sick because of the fatigue on the long journey.
So it could be conjectured that this director from the Ministry of Punishments who had just died at his post must be in the prime of his life.

Expectancy could hardly be concealed in the tone of the crown prince’s biological mother. Without looking back, he knew that it was scorching in Consort Cui’s eyes, but he seemed to have fallen into an icehouse.“Mother, do you know…” The crown prince felt that his voice had never been so intricate and obscure. “Do you know what you are talking about?”“Of course I know what I am talking about.” Consort Cui took a deep breath and sneered. “This year, it’s the twenty-first year after Emperor Xianjia took the throne, and I have borne with the bitch Daiguo for nearly twenty years. All people in the country think that I am an honorable noble consort and the crown prince’s biological mother. Even though I was degraded, I am a consort anyway, while in the eyes of the Empress Dowager and Daiguo and even your father, I am only one of his concubines.”She grasped the crown prince’s shoulder with more strength on her fingers subconsciously and almost pin
The Reborn Girl's Honor and Glory Chapter 276 The Allies Deceive Each Other
The morning audience was over after Prince of Zhao outargued many people, and the crown prince’s followers had prepared to make a speech but didn’t need to speak.After the meeting, Huo Dan who was furious grabbed Qiu Shuxia’s sleeve and insisted on asking him for an explanation. “Did Prince of Zhao say that today because he plans to keep a good relationship with his brother, the crown prince in the future? If so, you should have reminded us instead of stabbing us in the back like today as Prince of Zhao and Prince of Wei had formed an alliance before.”Prince of Wei and his followers prepared to add insult to injury and expected to join hands with the followers of Prince of Zhao and attack the crown prince in unison at the morning audience.As a result, Prince of Zhao personally turned his coat and his followers certainly wouldn’t oppose him in public. He defeated Huo Dan and the other officials who supported Prince of Wei alone, while the cro

“Let Prince of Zhao take charge in investigating the murder case in Jianling?” Duke of Ji still looked calm, but his eyes turned cold, and he said decisively, “No way.”Prince of Zhao sitting at the head of the table asked in confusion, “Uncle, why not? Didn’t you allow me to speak for my brother at the imperial court? Now we can even prove his innocence…”“Your Highness!” Duke of Ji waved his hand and stopped the others, asking peacefully, “You want to defeat the crown prince openly and decently and make His Majesty choose you as the heir to the throne, right?”Seeing Prince of Zhao nod, Duke of Ji laughed, but there was no smile in his eyes. “The problem is that it’s peaceful everywhere and politics is fair and clear now. Even if you are confident to do a better job than the crown prince no matter whether you are the heir to the throne or the emperor, there is no turbulence at the imperial court and the commonalty. How can you prove it, Your

“Even my wife’s parents don’t think that I can win, either?” The purpose of Madam Tian’s visit couldn’t be hidden from the crown prince. Even the crown princess considered it, and he could surely guess right.The crown prince looked at the flowers and trees with few leaves out of the window. There were still green leaves everywhere in the imperial capital at the end of the eighth lunar month, but it was mid-autumn after all. Among the flowers and leaves, cool wind blew from the west.It was like what he was feeling.The crown prince always knew that his father Emperor Xianjia was of great talent and bold vision and no ordinary person could surpass him, while till now, he realized that he was much inferior to his father. Emperor Xianjia had been slandered by Noble Consort Shentu that year and knelt for a long time in the continuous rain in late autumn, asking for a chance to defend himself, yet he failed. In contrast, the crown prince just asked

“How time flies! Prince of Zhao has grown up so soon.” The crown prince was laden with anxiety and walked out of the Xifu Palace. Seeing that the eunuchs followed him all the way, he was annoyed for no reason and waved them away. He walked alone on the path in the imperial palace, with complicated thoughts in his brain. “I remember that when he was born, he was a little baby and held in Father’s arms. He looked tiny and soft. Grandma and Father said then that was my legitimate brother and I should take good care of him in the future.”He was twelve years older than Prince of Zhao. When the latter was born, he had been a crown prince for seven or eight years. He was a teenager and about to get married then.Speaking of which, his father Emperor Xianjia did everything according to the standard of a wise emperor most of the time. For example, he spared no effort to cultivate his eldest son, but he didn’t love Consort Cui so much because of her son.

When the crown prince and Jian Xubai were discussing the backup plan, in the Xifu Palace…Concubine Fu grabbed the branch of orange osmanthus and walked into the inner hall with a smile. “Cui, you don’t take me as your friend. You are a consort. Even though you have been degraded recently, you are of a higher rank than me. You are ill, and why didn’t you tell me but hide here and rest quietly to recuperate? If I didn’t meet the crown prince outside and get the news from him just now, perhaps I would be still unclear about it now.”While speaking, she motioned for her maid to bring a stool for embroidering from the distance and move it next to Consort Cui’s bed. Then she walked over gracefully and sat down. Nobody knew if she did it intentionally or unintentionally, yet she didn’t bow to Consort Cui since she entered the hall. She looked at Consort Cui’s pale face and laughed more loudly, tut-tutting, “Look at your face. It really makes me feel sad af

When Consort Cui was furious, Concubine Fu who walked out wasn’t happy, and her big almond eyes widened all of a sudden. She was stunned for a long while and then asked in disbelief, “What did you say?”“Your Highness!” The maid who came to look for her under orders almost cried and answered anxiously, “His Majesty is feeling unwell. After the Empress Dowager rushed to the Palace of Xuanming, she went into a coma in anxiety on the spot. The empress needs to take care of His Majesty, so she is too busy to attend to anything else. She thought that you often went to the Palace of Mingren to greet the Empress Dowager these days, so she asked you to go to the Palace of Xuanming in a hurry to look after the Empress Dowager.”The maid didn’t dare to say something unlucky in fear of the rules in the imperial palace, and she just said that Emperor Xianjia “felt unwell”, but it could make the Empress Dowager fall into a coma in anxiety. It could be imagined ho

When Grand Princess Daiguo was overjoyed, in the Eastern Palace…After Jian Xubai explained why he didn’t agree with the crown prince to surrender to Prince of Zhao, there was a knock on the study’s door suddenly. The crown prince who was about to speak frowned and asked, “What’s the matter?”“Your Highness, Her Highness heard that Duke of Yan came, so she told me to serve tea and pastries,” a young eunuch reported cautiously outside the door.If the young eunuch said that he brought them specially for the crown prince, the latter would be not in the mood to answer, but since the crown princess wanted to entertain her husband’s cousin, even though the crown prince was impatient, he still ordered, “Come in.”The young eunuch heard that and pushed the door open. Then he entered and put a tray inlaid with mica of gold and mother-in-pearl on a small table not far away from the crown prince and Jian Xubai. Afterward, he bowed and

I don't dare to say that I don't have any selfishness, but I have never thought of usurping the throne! The reason why I will support His Highness King Su to ascend to the throne, apart from worrying about Second Auntie, is also because His Highness King Su has the qualifications of a wise ruler, and can succeed the late Emperor's divine warrior!"Taking a deep breath, he knocked heavily on the ground, "I never thought of betraying Lu!""Good boy, mourning home but just so ask, why do you have to be so solemn?"
