Chapter 50 You Are Slandering Me!

No matter what happens in the future, at least for now, they are a legitimate couple.

They got married and worshiped heaven and earth.

Whether there is affection and trust or not, this fact cannot be changed.

The carriage slowly arrived outside the palace gate.

The two sat quietly in the carriage. Ji Yucang's hand had loosened from Shen Ning's waist, but his eyes fell on her face without blinking.

"No matter what the reason is, I am now the regent princess and your wife." Shen Ning's voice was indifferent, without any emotional ups and downs, "As long as you live one day, I will be your wife one day. Whether it's growing old together or parting halfway, it's always necessary for people to live to have those possibilities."

Ji Yucang was silent for a moment, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly: "So, in fact, you hope I'm alive?"

Shen Ning raised her eyes and glanced at him, thinking that his question was very strange: "It's not good for me if you die. I don't want you to live. Do I still hope you die?"

Ji Yucang's eyes were slightly deep, and finally seemed to compromise: "Let this king think about it for two days."

Shen Ning hummed, and got up first and walked towards the carriage.

Anyway, no matter how he thinks, she is going to save him.

The most burdensome thing in this world is the debt of favor.

She doesn't want to owe anyone a debt of gratitude if she lives again.

Others don't want to owe her.

She will get back all the people who have owed her and the deep hatred.

...

After entering the palace gate, the two soon arrived at Chonghua Palace.

After the morning court, Ji Jin stayed in Chonghua Palace to read, occasionally staring out the window, thinking about things that only he knew.

He didn't need to make decisions on important matters of the court, and the left and right prime ministers discussed with the important officials in the court.

Even during the period when the regent's poison broke out, it was not his turn to make decisions on government affairs, as he, the young emperor who had not yet taken power, seemed to be just a decoration.

The regent was the real master of Yongguo.

If it weren't for the Qin family coming to the palace every now and then to beg for this and that, he would probably really forget that he was the master of this court.

"Your Majesty! Please help Yanshu!" Madam Qin knelt on the ground, crying and accusing the regent of his evil deeds, "Yanshu has been the treasure of the Qin family since he was a child. I have never been willing to touch him, but..."

"The regent is really lawless!" Queen Mother Qin had a cold expression, "Yanshu is such a good child, gentle and polite, knows how to advance and retreat, and never does anything beyond the limit. How can the regent be so intolerant?"

Ji Jin's eyebrows were slightly lowered, and his handsome face was shrouded in the morning light, revealing a bit of alienation and impatience.

His eyes fell on the page, and he said indifferently: "What did Qin Yanshu do at the Regent's Mansion last night?"

"No matter what he did, the Regent has no right to lynch him!" The Queen Mother's expression was angry, and her eyebrows were shrouded in a layer of haze, "The legitimate son of the Prince's Uncle's Mansion, even if the late emperor was still alive, he would not humiliate and kill him at will! The Regent really doesn't take me seriously anymore!"

With the Queen Mother as a backup, Mrs. Qin was full of confidence, crying more and more angrily and aggrieved: "Poor Yanshu was sent home last night. The horrible injuries were so severe that even the experienced old doctor didn't dare to start easily. It can be seen that the Regent simply wanted to beat him to death-"

"The Regent is here! The Regent's wife is here!" Zhou Fang's slightly anxious report sounded, accompanied by the sound of hurried footsteps entering the palace, and the tone was also a bit of uneasy, "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, the Regent is here!"

Mrs. Qin froze on the ground, and the accusation stopped abruptly.

Ji Jin, who was sitting on the bright yellow dragon-carved brocade couch, had a slightly changed expression when he heard the words, and his hand holding the scroll tightened unconsciously.

Why would the Regent come?

Although he had sent out the decree that the Regent and the Princess come together, shouldn't the Regent, who had just taken the antidote yesterday, be lying on the bed, drowsy and unable to get up?

He expected that Shen Ning would not dare to come because of fear, or that she would come alone, but would bring some guards to protect her.

And it was definitely not the Regent and his wife coming together.

This thought flashed through his mind, but a familiar figure appeared in his sight, and Ji Jin suddenly looked up.

The Regent and the Princess came from outside the palace together, one was noble and cold, with unparalleled elegance, and the other was indifferent and unparalleled, cold and beautiful.

It was as if they were born to be a perfect match.

They were so well-matched that people were jealous.

Madam Qin was still kneeling on the ground, subconsciously avoiding the Regent's gaze: "Regent... Regent..."

"Regent." The Queen Mother sat back on the chair and looked at him coldly, "I heard that you had Yanshu caned last night. What's going on?"

Ji Yucang's expression was cold and hard. Before he could speak, Shen Ning had already said: "The Queen Mother misunderstood. It was my idea to order Qin Yanshu to be caned. The Regent took the antidote yesterday and has been resting in the bedroom."

"You?" The Queen Mother said angrily, "Regent Princess, you are so bold!"

Ji Yucang walked over Madam Qin sat down on the second most honorable seat, her voice cold: "Why didn't the Queen Mother ask what Qin Yanshu did?"

"No matter what he did, she has no right to use private punishment." The Queen Mother said angrily, her eyes still on Shen Ning, "Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you married the Regent! Doctors cannot be punished, and Yanshu is the legitimate son of the uncle's mansion-"

"It's a pity that Qin Yanshu is not a doctor." Shen Ning walked over and sat down next to Ji Yucang, "Besides, he committed a serious crime that is enough to confiscate his family and exterminate his clan. Is it worth Madam Qin to go to the palace to complain for just thirty strokes of the cane?"

"What did you say?" The Queen Mother's face changed, and then she frowned and said coldly, "Shen Ning, stop spreading rumors here!"

Shen Ning leaned against the back of the chair, treating Chonghua Palace as if it were the Regent's Palace: "First of all, Qin Yanshu called my princess by her name yesterday on the street, which is very disrespectful."

"Secondly, my princess is already married. He intercepted my princess' carriage on the street. Not only is he disrespectful, he also ignored the difference between men and women. He is not noble, but he is more vulgar and mean than anyone else."

"You-"

"And the most important thing." Shen Ning's eyes were slightly cold, and his voice was as cold as if it was soaked in an ice cellar, piercing the bone. "Qin Yanshu came to the Regent's Palace last night. Do you know what he said? He said that he was the one who caused the bandit incident in the suburbs. He ruined my reputation and killed more than a dozen people in my mansion. I don't know how to settle this account?"

After the voice fell, Chonghua Palace was silent.

The air froze in an instant.

"What did you say?" Madam Qin looked up in shock, looking at her in shock and anger, "Shen Ning, this is slander! Yanshu can't possibly-"

"Qin Yanshu admitted that he did it himself." Shen Ning's eyes were like ice knives, as if he could see through people's evil: "Madam Qin, before you come to complain, didn't you ask your son what immoral things he did?"

"You're talking nonsense!" Madam Qin stood up and denied it sternly, "Yanshu is upright and would never do such a thing! He likes you so much, he won't marry anyone but you, what good does it do him to frame you?"

Ji Yu Cang's expression suddenly sank, and his voice was as cold as frost: "Madam Qin."

Madam Qin's face turned pale, and she swallowed her saliva: "In short, we can't listen to the one-sided words of the Regent Princess on this matter..."

"Qin Yanshu's doing this is naturally beneficial, for example, he wants to marry Princess Pingyao." Shen Ning said coldly, "But even if he admits it himself, you will not admit the crime, so don't worry, I will continue to look for evidence, and then I hope that the Prince's Mansion can withstand the wrath of the Regent's Mansion."

Madam Qin's face turned pale, and she subconsciously took a step back, and her whole body was cold.

Is this a threat?

This is definitely a threat!

Shen Ning dared to arrogantly threaten the Prince's Mansion in front of the emperor and the queen mother!
