Chapter 313 Right Prime Minister vs. Grand Tutor
After all, it would be better to lose that little reputation and stay in the capital to find someone to marry than to marry into a miserable life with the Zang Rong.
Even if the person you marry is not what you want, once the Tibetan and Rong envoys leave and the situation is settled, you can still get a divorce.
As for the assassin?
Oh, they are all dead. There is no witness and no physical evidence. Who can we confront?
Thinking of this, everyone felt that they had realized the truth.
The look in his eyes when he looked at Xiahou Zhen was full of sympathy.
Xiahou Zhen's face was as dark as ink. Thinking about what Rou Guijun said, he couldn't help but suspect that he was being plotted against.
The strange looks of sympathy and pity around him made Xiahou Zhen's face turn pale and he clenched his hands under his sleeves.
Lord Feng caught a glimpse of the strange looks from his ministers, and when he looked up he saw that His Majesty also had a gloomy face, and his heart skipped a beat.
He glared at Su Yurou with a sharp and angry look: "Lord Rou, don't spit blood on me!"
"You have no evidence at all, yet you dare to slander me like this? Believe it or not, I will punish you!"
Rou Guijun pretended to be frightened by Feng Jun, and stepped back in fear and grievance, looking at Ji Yao with a pair of pitiful and watery eyes.
"Your Majesty, look at how fierce Lord Feng is~"
"I did not say that it was done by Lord Feng. I was just guessing. Lord Feng was so eager to jump out. People who don't know would think that Lord Feng was guilty~"
"Shut up!"
Murong Hua felt annoyed when he saw Rou Guijun's pretentious look. Why didn't he realize that this person was so pretentious before?
Were the previous gentleness, virtuousness, and considerate brotherhood all fake?
Humph, as expected.
He shouldn't have any kindness in his heart.
The people in this harem are all ruthless and heartless people. Until the very end, you will never discover what kind of vicious heart they have under that false face!
Fortunately, it was discovered early so he could take precautions.
"Your Majesty, I did not send anyone to deliberately sabotage Xue'er's marriage. This is all one-sided words from Lord Rou. There is no evidence and it cannot be believed."
Rou Guijun chuckled: "Those assassins are already dead, who knows if someone wanted to kill and silence them."
"Your Majesty, the Tibetan Rong envoys came here to propose marriage. At this critical moment, the Third Prince, the candidate for marriage, caused such a thing. Isn't it... too much of a coincidence?"
Rou Guijun looked at Feng Jun with malice flashing in her eyes.
Murong Hua glared at Rou Guijun with a dark face. Before she could say anything, Su Qing, the Minister of Works, also stood up and echoed.
"Your Majesty, what Lord Rou said makes sense. This matter is too strange. I think we should consider it carefully."
Su Qing is Rou Guijun's biological mother, so it's normal for her to speak for him.
The other ministers looked at each other in bewilderment when they saw how things had turned out.
Both sides have their reasons, and helping either side will offend that person.
At this moment, the Right Prime Minister, who had been silent all this time, spoke.
"Minister Su means that this is a play directed and performed by Feng Jun himself?"
Right Prime Minister Murong Jing, mother of Feng Jun.
There were silver threads on the temples under the crown, his eyebrows and beard had lost their former luster, and wrinkles were engraved on his forehead.
His eyes flashed with shrewdness and depth, and the look he stared at Su Qing was sharp and intimidating.
Su Qing was slightly startled, cold sweat appeared on his forehead, and he lowered his head in fear.
"I never meant this!"
Originally, she was the right prime minister's person, but now they have fallen out over the choice of marriage.
How could she, who was already weak, compare with the old fox, the Right Prime Minister?
Wouldn't you be nervous?
Seeing this scene, the Grand Tutor on the other side snorted coldly.
"This matter concerns the reputation of our Eastern Zhou Dynasty. Regardless of whether it is true or false, Your Majesty, I think the choice of the marriage partner should be cautious and should not be changed at will."
"If other princes follow suit in the future, it will be a mess."
