Chapter 264
Silence, everyone was silent.

But the heart is very shocked.

Even Mu Rongyun had a look of surprise in his eyes, seeing the pale face of the queen, he didn't know what to say for a while.

He strangled his own daughter to death with his own hands!
It is simply not as good as a beast!
The emperor's face was full of disbelief, he pointed at the queen, and said in a trembling voice, "You, you poisonous woman!"

"Come here! Pull me down! Put me in death row!"

Only then did the queen come to her senses: "Your Majesty! I didn't! Don't listen to Li Neng's nonsense! It's not me! It's not me!"

There was no emotion in the emperor's cold eyes, staring at the queen as if he wanted to kill her directly.

"Brother, brother, hurry up and tell the emperor, it's really not me, it has nothing to do with me! I don't have... She, that child, died when she was born! It's not me! It's really not me!"

"Dead after birth?" Lin Yushi looked at Li Neng suspiciously, obviously not believing the Queen's words.

Li Neng shook his head: "There is a breath of mourning. Cao Min saw the queen strangle the little princess to death with his own eyes. There is nothing wrong with it."

Hearing this, the emperor became even more enraged. He came directly to the empress and kicked her on the body: "You poisonous woman! Pull me down!"

"Yes!"

Just when the eunuchs moved, a voice came from outside.

"The Empress Dowager is here!"

The emperor frowned, Lord Qin heaved a sigh of relief, and the empress' eyes lit up.

Mu Rongyun and Lin Yushi stood up, looked at the queen mother and saluted.

The prince was in the corner with a dazed face, not knowing what to say.

The arrival of the queen mother made the situation even more tense.

The queen mother frowned, looked at the queen, and then looked at the emperor: "What kind of dignity is it? How can the mother of a country be so embarrassed, kneeling on the ground? Get up!"

"Mother!" The emperor yelled directly, "Is the mother here to support the queen? I am afraid that the mother would not know what happened!"

The empress dowager was humiliated by the emperor, and she didn't show any displeasure, she just said: "This matter still needs to be discussed, and we need to produce more evidence for the details."

"These letters and everything can be forged, so they can't be taken as real." The queen mother said, making the emperor snort coldly, "Queen mother, you say these are forgeries? You should take a good look and see what she did!"

"Confuse the royal family's blood! Such a serious crime, mother, do you have to cover it up? Or, does the mother know about this? The Lin family also knows?"

The Empress Dowager's heart sank suddenly, she looked at the emperor's face, and pursed her lips: "The Ai family didn't know about this matter, and the Lin family naturally didn't know about it either."

"Since the Empress Dowager doesn't believe in the grass people, then..." Li Neng opened his mouth, and took out a jade pendant from his bosom, "Then the Empress Dowager should know this jade pendant."

Looking at the jade pendant, the queen mother suddenly widened her eyes and took a deep breath.

The emperor took a step forward and took it directly. Looking at the pattern on it, the fury in his eyes was almost unbearable.

"This is the ancestral jade pendant of the Lin family! Only passed down to descendants of the Lin family!"

"When the prince was born, the queen said that your jade pendant was lost! Now, how do you explain it!"

"Bang!" The jade pendant was thrown on the ground and shattered with a loud sound.

Li Neng lowered his head and said word by word: "The empress left the jade pendant to the little princess."

"Caomin was so flustered at that time that he only remembered about this jade pendant after putting the little princess in the moat, so..."

The queen was completely dumbfounded. With so much evidence added together, she could no longer refute it.

However, Li Neng kowtowed heavily to the emperor, with a serious expression on his face: "The emperor, the queen mother, the prince, the grassroots, are willing to prove their innocence by death!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Neng slammed into the pillar beside him.

"boom!"

The sudden situation made everyone stunned.

Immediately afterwards, screams sounded: "Grandpa!"

Li Baishu rushed towards Li Neng, hugged Li Neng's body, and was in extreme grief and anger: "Grandpa! Grandpa, don't leave Baishu alone! Grandpa!"

Li Neng died suddenly, and everyone was silent, except for Li Baishu's crying, there was a strong smell of blood.

The emperor didn't expect such a thing to happen, he frowned and looked at the queen: "What else do you want to say?"

The queen's entire face was extremely pale, and her whole body seemed to be drained of all strength, and she was extremely weak.

She moved her fingers, lowered her eyes, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, it was all done by the concubine alone. It has nothing to do with the Qin family or the Queen Mother..."

The queen finally gave up her resistance and let someone take her into the dungeon.

The Queen Mother and Master Qin naturally couldn't intercede.

And the most embarrassing one was the prince beside, the emperor's eyes flashed a trace of coldness: "Xian Wang, how will he deal with it?"

"Father... No, Your Majesty, I, I don't know anything..." Mu Chenyu panicked and looked at the people present, but he didn't know who to ask for help.

Mu Rongyun was thoughtful: "Brother Huang, let Mu Chenyu go back to the mansion to rest first. This matter is still to be discussed, but in any case, he is still a victim in this matter."

The emperor frowned, obviously he didn't want to let Mu Chenyu go like this, after all, this was a disgrace to the royal family.

If it was him, he would naturally kill him.

But now that there are so many people around, he naturally wouldn't bring it up.

He could only follow Mu Rongyun's words and say, "Take Mu Chenyu back and watch him, and don't come out if you have nothing to do."

House arrest in disguise is the best way now.

Mu Chenyu walked out of the imperial study room, wiped the sweat from his forehead, took a deep breath, and walked out.

Master Qin's forehead was covered with sweat, and he knelt on the ground.

The emperor sat down and looked at it for a long time before saying: "Qin Qing's house should go down first, and the queen mother can leave if nothing happens."

"As for everyone in the Li family..."

"Put it in prison first."

"The emperor is also tired today."

Mu Rongyun responded, "Your brother will leave."

As everyone left, the emperor looked at Lin Yushi and said slowly, "Lin Qing's family, what do you think of Mu Chenyu, how should we deal with it? And Li's family?"

Lin Yushi pondered for a while, then slowly said: "Your Majesty, Li Neng is the only one who knows the Li family. Li Neng was also forced by the queen, and now he is dead. Your Majesty is benevolent, why not let the Li family go."

"As for the prince... oh no, as for the young master, what does the emperor think of him being demoted to a commoner?"

Hearing this, the emperor nodded, showing a thoughtful look.

"This matter has to be discussed."

"Your Majesty, I'm sorry for the old minister's bluntness. After all, it is not appropriate for too many people to know about this matter, otherwise it will damage the royal prestige. According to the minister, it is better..."

Master Lin approached the emperor, and whispered: "Why don't you just announce to the public that the crown prince died of illness, what do you think?"

The emperor was silent for a while, and said lightly: "I think about it again, you go down first."

Master Lin nodded and took his leave.

At this time, Gu Nuannuan heard Mu Chenyu's voice outside, opened the door and went out: "Prince, can you let us out?"

Mu Chenyu's mind was in a mess, but when he saw Gu Nuannuan, his anger surged up, and he was about to hit Gu Nuannuan with his hands.

"Prince!" Su Xiangru grabbed Mu Chenyu's wrist, staring at Mu Chenyu, "What does the prince want?"

"Hmph!" Mu Chenyu waved his hand violently, with his back behind him, clenched his fists tightly, his eyes were full of coldness.

"Prince, your identity has been exposed? Oh no, no, you are not the prince now."

Gu Nuannuan looked at Mu Chenyu with a smile, and after hearing this, Mu Chenyu's expression became more and more ugly.

"Even if I'm not the prince, you're still in my hands!" Saying that, Mu Chenyu swung his sleeves violently, turned and left.

Seeing this, Gu Nuannuan's eyes moved, but she didn't say anything.

In the evening, Gu Nuannuan walked out and went directly to Mu Chenyu's study.

"Er Gouzi, go and listen to what they are saying."

Er Gouzi responded and went straight into the study.

Inside, Mu Chenyu stood with several staff members, and Qin Fangyu was also there.

"Prince, what are your plans?" Qin Fangyu looked at Mu Chenyu and said slowly, "I don't think the emperor will announce this, so..."

Mu Chenyu raised his head suddenly, looked at Qin Fangyu, squirmed his lips, and there was a faint light in his eyes.

The other staff members looked at each other, and the elder said: "Prince, we are on the same boat now, so we will definitely not lie to you."

"Once your identity is known by the other princes, let alone your current glory and wealth, you may lose your life!"

"However, you are still the crown prince! You are the one who inherits the great power! So, do one thing and keep doing the other! Prince, can you understand?"

Mu Chenyu felt as if he had been hit by a blow to the head, and with a slight movement of his fingers, he looked at the crowd: "He lost his life?"

Qin Fangyu nodded: "That's right, Prince, if you don't take any action, I'm afraid you will end up dead!"

Mu Chenyu closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, the confusion in his eyes had dissipated, and he turned to look at Qin Fangyu: "Uncles, what do you say?"

"My father doesn't know, but Prince, I'm on your side." Qin Fangyu's eyes were full of ambition, and a trace of ignorance flashed in his eyes.

"Prince! Don't hesitate any longer! Let's do it!"

"Do it..." Mu Chenyu took a deep breath, "Are you ready?"

"Although it's a long time earlier than we imagined, but don't worry, Prince, as long as you give an order, we can arrange everything!"

Mu Chenyu pursed his lips, his face was full of seriousness, finally nodded, and shouted: "Do it!"

"Prince wise!"

This night is destined to be an unusual night.

After Er Gouzi finished telling the story, Gu Nuannuan pursed her lips: "The prince is going to rebel!"

The next day, Gu Nuannuan found that there were more people watching them, and she didn't need to think about it to know that it was Mu Chenyu who started to do it.

In Xian Wang's mansion, Mu Rongyun looked at Chen Feng: "How is it?"

Chen Feng cupped his hands: "Go back to the lord, the seven sons of the prime minister's residence will all arrive at the training ground at noon today."
