Princess of the auxiliary country

"My daughter must have her reasons for asking her to do this, so just don't worry about it for now."

"It's better to arrange some people to protect them first."

Hearing this, Huo Jingzhi nodded, and then arranged for twenty more people to go over.

Three days passed very quickly. Huo Junyao had been very busy at the hot spring villa these three days, and the preparation of the black powder went very smoothly.

The homemade bombs made later are not bad either.

Three days later, she had prepared more than sixty homemade bombs.

"It's time to go back."

"Xiaochan, go ask Hong Xiu to prepare the carriage, and then ask some people to come over and carry all these boxes to the carriage for me. Be careful not to bump into them."

Soon Xiaochan arranged everything.

"Auntie Xi, I may not be able to come back and live here for a while. I will leave the affairs of Zhuangzi to you first."

"If there is any special situation, arrange for someone to go back to the capital to find me."

"I want to take Hongxiu and Wangxia back."

Aunt Xi nodded repeatedly. She naturally understood that the young lady had been assassinated, and Her Royal Highness would definitely not be concerned about her coming to live here alone for some time.

"Miss Zhuangzi, you can rest assured to leave it to me. I will not let you down."

"You have to be careful when you go back, and remember to take more people with you when you go out."

Huo Junyao nodded, and then the group returned to the capital in a grand manner.

In the eldest princess's mansion, after Huo Jingzhi's investigation during this period, and some information secretly sent by Shen Huan, he has determined that there are a total of twelve families involved in the assassination of his daughter this time.

Two of them were the founding marquises, and those who died were all arranged by these twelve families.

Of course, another thing that surprised him was that Shen Huan's secret letter to him also mentioned that his son was also involved, but he did not think about assassinating Huo Junyao. He only mentioned that he wanted to prevent Tan Ding from entering his mother's family. thing.

For this reason, Shen Huan also prepared a generous gift to express his apology, which can be regarded as a better person.

Naturally, Huo Jingzhi didn't know what he said. He also conducted detailed investigations secretly and found that Shen Huan's son was involved, but it was true that as Shen Huan said, the involvement was not too deep. The assassination He didn't bring it up.

The most he knew was that someone was going to assassinate him, but he didn't stop him or tell anyone.

This made him feel a bit difficult to handle. Shen Huan had already reached this point, should he pursue it?

He was a little worried and discussed it with Princess Ningyang. The two unanimously decided to ask Huo Junyao what she meant.

Huo Junyao came back soon, and Huo Junyao asked Hongxiu and Wangxia to carefully move the boxes of homemade explosives to her yard.

"Mom and Dad, I'm back. How is the investigation going?"

In the main courtyard, Huo Junyao saluted and said hello, then went straight to the topic.

Huo Jingzhi took out the recent investigation results.

"I didn't expect that so many people wanted me dead."

Looking at the twelve families who were investigated, Huo Junyao's anger rose in her heart, and her eyes were full of cold light.

She has not offended these people, and has not even seen them very often. Even though she proposed the idea of ​​sharing the land with others, it is not her who has the final say on whether it will be implemented or not.

These guys actually want to kill her, they are treating her like a soft persimmon.

"One more thing."

Huo Jingzhi quickly told about Shen Huan's son.

Hearing this, Huo Junyao pondered for a moment and said, "I won't deal with him this time."

Although Shen Shizi was involved, he did not explicitly arrange for the assassination. At most, he did not report the knowledge. There was no friendship between them, so they had no obligation to tell her.

Besides, she was quite satisfied with Shen Huan's attitude.

Of course, in addition to the above, there is another problem, that is, the Shen family is not easy to move, and there are many things to do later. Even if she wants to move, she cannot move, and the emperor and empress cannot agree. But she had no intention of letting go of the other twelve families.

"Daughter, how do you plan to handle this matter?"

Princess Ningyang asked.

"The wrongdoers have their own owners, and I don't care about other people, but the people in charge of these twelve families must pay the price."

Hearing this, Huo Jingzhi frowned. To be honest, at first, he only thought that there would only be three or five families at most, and he was prepared to let the three or five families be exiled and destroyed.

But after investigating the specific situation, he hesitated.

Twelve families.

Moreover, these twelve families all have positions in the court, and several of them hold important positions.

The problem with the three or five families is not big. The emperor also knows about this incident and will deal with it as soon as possible. But there are quite a few of these twelve families. If all of them are dealt with, there will be a big shock in the court.

The emperor may not agree.

After all, in his eyes, the stability of the court is above all else. Even if these people are to be touched, it is impossible to get rid of them all at once, and a buffer time is needed.

"The price must be paid by them, but the Emperor may have some difficulties in this matter."

Hearing this, Huo Junyao frowned, and she naturally knew the reason.

It is indeed a problem.

But soon, she recovered.

These guys were going to kill her, and she almost died.

She couldn't bear this tone anymore. If she didn't blow up their entire family, she would be merciful. She would definitely not be able to let it go.

No one can be kept.

"In that case, then, father and mother, please go to the palace and tell the emperor what these twelve people have done."

"If they want my life, then I will want their life."

"I came back this time and brought back some things. Even if the emperor wants to save their lives, he can't. If he does what I want, he can get huge benefits."

"If he insists on guaranteeing it, then I will do it myself, and I will bear the consequences."

Hearing this, Huo Jingzhi understood that his daughter wanted to kill the heads of the twelve families.

Naturally, he would have no objection to this. If he dared to touch his daughter, he would kill her.

He was still worried that the emperor would step in to protect them.

"Why do you shoulder the responsibility with all your strength? My mother will not watch you being bullied by these people. You have already suffered so many grievances this time when you came back. The prince doesn't care. Who do these people think they are?"

"My mother will advance and retreat with you together."

After saying that, Princess Ningyang turned to look at Huo Jingzhi.

"Look what I'm going to do? I'm Yaoyao's father, can I still shrink back?"

"Okay, thank you, Mom and Dad."

Huo Junyao smiled. She was very satisfied and felt very warm that her parents could support her so much.

As for what consequences it would bring to Duke Ji's Mansion, she believed that as long as the bomb was unveiled, it would be nothing.

At most, he may be impeached by an official afterwards.

At worst, I'll just pay him a visit at home.

It was rare for her to think about the twists and turns, just be reckless. She still didn't believe that no one was not afraid of death.

"Father and mother, if you don't bring back the results within an hour, then I will take action directly."
