Chapter 418: Missing (Second Watch)

Situ Yan's eyes widened in shock:

"Rong Xiao! Are you crazy!?"

The queen is the mother of a country, and after her death, a state funeral will be held!

Rong Jin, as her son, should be filial piety for three years!

Even if there is any urgent reason, it will take at least a year to get through!

One month?!

Isn't that the equivalent of stepping on the queen's coffin for a wedding!?

Do you want this face? Do you want this reputation!?

If this is really done, not to mention that Rong Jin and Situ Xingchen will have the name of rebellion, and even the reputation of the entire Yaochen Kingdom royal family will be affected!

"You are shameless, I still want Situ Yan!"

Now that he already knew that Rong Jin was not the real chosen son, how could he agree to continue to fulfill the marriage contract?

Situ Xingchen is the pearl of his palm, and he is his most proud and favorite daughter! How can he marry a deposed prince like Rong Jin!?

Wouldn't that be the end of a lifetime!

Seeing Situ Yan's angry appearance, Emperor Jiawen was relieved.

This old thing calculates and calculates, and in the end it lifts a stone and shoots itself in the foot!

He's going to get this game back no matter what!

"This marriage was originally proposed by you, is it now that you want to break the contract?"

Situ Yanqi's liver hurts.

"What about breaking the contract!?"

As soon as Rong Jin had an accident, they broke off the marriage contract, and they would definitely be criticized.

But even so, it's better than taking Situ Xingchen into it for the rest of his life!

Emperor Jiawen leaned back in his chair.

He was exhausted from the tossing of things during this time, but now that he saw Situ Yan being angry like this, his mood finally eased a little.

"This matter is not negotiable, the marriage contract is still the same! A month later, Situ Xingchen will marry in the imperial capital. Don't worry, Rong Jin is my son after all, and this big wedding, I will definitely let the people below control the scenery!"

Situ Yan's eyes darkened, and he almost fainted.

"Rong Xiao! you—"

He had made up his mind to keep Situ Xingchen here until he completed his wedding to Rong Jin!

"Rong Xiao, don't go too far! Don't think that my Star Luo Kingdom is afraid of you!" Situ Yan took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and said with a gloomy face, "Elder Zongye is still in Star Luo now, if he knows that you are doing this..."

"Who are you threatening?"

A hint of mockery appeared on Emperor Jiawen's face.

"Elder Zongye is very powerful, but do you think that he can come forward?"

"Don't forget, Elder Zongye represents the Bright Moon Heavenly Mountain!" Situ Yan's eyes turned red.

"The people you can invite to move the Bright Moon Tianshan Mountain, can't we do it?"

Situ Yan was stunned, and then he remembered that Rong Xiu had also been in Mingyue Tianshan for many years.

Although outsiders thought that Rong Xiu was just a sick man, he had heard Situ Xingchen mention that in fact, Rong Xiu was not as rumored.

The most important thing is that Rong Xiu has been in Mingyue Tianshan for so long, if he is willing, he will naturally be able to invite a backer!

Maybe even more powerful than Elder Zongye!

Using this as a threat really doesn't have the slightest effect.

Situ Yan's forehead was bruised.

He has never been so humiliated!

"Rong Xiao, do you really want the two countries to go to war!?"

Situ Yan said word by word, and said in a deep voice!

Emperor Jiawen's eyes were slightly raised, his hands folded in front of him, and he smiled.

"Situ Yan, do you dare?"

......

"Your Highness, your tea. ”

"Come in. ”

Squeak –

The door was pushed open, and a gray-clothed guy bent over and walked in with tea, carefully placing it next to him.

Rong Jiu was wiping the knife.

He is very focused and takes every step very seriously.

This knife is actually just an ordinary simple knife, but he has always cherished it.

Because of the knife he used when he killed for the first time on the battlefield.

It was the first time he had cut off someone's head with his own hands, and when the blade fell, it could harvest the other person's life in an instant.

Sticky, bloody blood splattered his face.

Many people will have varying degrees of reaction after the first killing, some nausea and vomiting, and some nightmares one after another.

But he didn't.

On the contrary, he only felt happy!

After so many years, this knife is still sharp.

"Your Highness, this tea won't taste good when it's cold. “

The little guy reminded respectfully.

Rong Jiu paused and glanced at him.

"You use it slowly, and the small ones will retreat first. ”

With that, the little man withdrew silently and closed the door.

Rong Jiu's gaze fell on the cup of tea.

He put the knife in his hand beside him, picked up the tea, got up and walked to a bonsai, and poured all the tea into it.

Then, he fumbled to the bottom of the teacup and gently clasped it.

Click.

A very thin sheet bounced open, and a piece of paper fell out.

It turns out that there is a very small mechanism hidden at the bottom of this teacup!

Although the paper was very small, the handwriting on it was very clear.

"Everything is ready!"

Rong Jiu was sure in his heart, and with a movement of his fingertips, the piece of paper was crushed and completely turned into powder.

With a slight lift, it will dissipate with the wind.

...

Chu Ning has been so busy these days that he hasn't even returned home.

Chu Liuyue didn't go back to the academy, but stayed at home alone.

After the news of the death of the queen and the abolition of the crown prince, she had a faint premonition in her heart.

And Situ Yan's arrival confirmed her guess.

- Emperor Jiawen already knew that behind him that day, Rong Jin and Situ Xingchen secretly followed and entered the imperial tomb.

This incident became the last straw that broke the camel's back, and finally made Emperor Jiawen make up his mind to do it.

The Si family also seems to have been implicated, and many people have been removed from their positions, and some have been imprisoned.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is definitely related to the queen.

The Si family did not have any resistance to this, but silently accepted everything and kept a low profile.

The position of the head of the four major families is crumbling.

But this is not what Chu Liuyue is most concerned about.

She just thought there was one thing that was strange.

Since Emperor Jiawen knew that Rong Jin and Situ Xingchen had gone to the Emperor's Mausoleum that day, he would definitely find something along this clue.

The queen's death is related to Situ Xingchen.

But until now, there has been no news.

On the contrary, it was the third prince Rong Jiu who was splashed with a basin of dirty water, and the rumors intensified.

Almost everyone agreed that he was the one who was most involved.

Emperor Jiawen is not stupid, if he really wants to investigate, he will definitely be able to find out something.

But now he let this matter develop...

I heard that Rong Jiu has also been placed under house arrest.

No matter how Chu Liuyue thought about it, he didn't feel right.

And the pyramid... Although it was on her now, she never knew what it was.

Thinking about it, I don't have a clue at all.

In the end, Chu Liuyue planned to simply go to Qijiao Alley in person.

The queen must know something, now that she is dead, Situ Xingchen and Rong Jin can't ask, it is better for her to investigate it herself.

However, when she arrived at Seven Corners Alley, she saw corpses all over the ground!

Those are the Praetorian Guards guarding here!

Chu Liuyue's heart sank, and he immediately pushed the door in!

The blood-colored bronze tripod that was placed in the middle of the courtyard before has disappeared!
