627 Successfully caused her expression to change
Shi Qingluo and the others did not disturb Liang Mingyu.
Instead, she made everyone leave temporarily, giving him and his mother some alone time to say goodbye.
Liang Mingyu looked at his mother, opened his mouth and said a few words. Then, his legs felt a little weak as he stepped back and kowtowed a few times to the coffin.
He then stood up and looked at Shi Qingluo. “Thank you!”
Shi Qingluo shook her head. “You’re welcome!”
When the time came, Mdm Hua’s coffin was sealed with nails and buried into the soil.
Although three days wasn’t a long time, Shi Qingluo still got someone to work overtime to build a tombstone.
She had also burned a lot of paper money.
Liang Mingyu’s eyes were red and burning as well. Before he left, he kowtowed a few more times.
He did not leave by himself but said to Xiao Hanzheng, “I want to see Prince Yi.”
Today, Prince Yi was busy and did not come, so only Xiao Hanzheng and his wife were here.
Xiao Hanzheng had expected it. “Okay, I’ll take you to see His Highness.”
They took the carriage back to the magistrate’s residence. Xiao Hanzheng and Prince Yi had arranged for their people to follow them, so they were not discovered by the spies.
Prince Yi hadn’t returned yet. Xiao Hanzheng thought about it and asked Liang Mingyu, “Do you want to see Prince Jin first? Prince Yi will be back in an hour.”
Liang Mingyu’s body trembled. After a moment of silence, he nodded. “Okay!”
So Xiao Hanzheng took him to see Prince Jin.
At this moment, a servant was helping Prince Jin to drink his medicine. He was half-lying on the soft cushion.
His hands and legs were still weak. He could move his fingers, but he couldn’t lift them.
When he saw Xiao Hanzheng come in with Liang Mingyu, his expression changed.
He gritted his teeth and glared at Liang Mingyu as if he had seen his enemy. “You, you unfaithful son, why are you here?”
He also couldn’t get up at this time, otherwise, he definitely wouldn’t be able to resist taking out his sword to behead his unfaithful son.
Xiao Hanzheng left after sending him in.
The father and son stayed in the room for a while, and then Liang Mingyu walked out. “Mr Xiao, my father has fainted. Please go and take a look”.
His royal father scolded him, but he didn’t even say a word. His royal father fainted on his own. He didn’t know what to say.
However, he could also tell that his father’s body was completely damaged.
At the same time, he could also see that his father hated him to the coere and wanted to skin him alive. It was obvious that he was angry with him for what his mother had done.
He even said that when he returned to Prince Jin’s residence, he would drive him out and remove his name from the family tree, making his fate worse than death.
At this moment, his father’s mind was also muddled by the poison, and he voiced his heartfelt words directly to him.
He had been conflicted at first, but now he didn’t have to hesitate anymore.
If he didn’t cooperate with Prince Yi and the others, what awaited him would be having his name removed and his father torturing him to death.
If he cooperated, he could still live a normal life.
So when Prince Yi returned, Liang Mingyu took out an envelope and handed it to him.
“My mother gave this to me a few days ago.”
Prince Yi was a little surprised that Liang Mingyu had made his choice so quickly. They hadn’t discussed it in depth.
However, on second thought, he guessed that Secondary Consort Hua might have talked to Liang Mingyu before.
He took out the paper from the envelope and looked at it. It was a list of Prince Jin’s trusted aides.
Other than some that he knew, there were actually one-third of the people that he didn’t know.
There were even two important officials in the court that he and his brother had not noticed.
It had to be said that Secondary Consort Hua was really a powerful woman. She had endured for so many years and done many things. She even dug out these things.
Liang Yulin could feel Secondary Consort Hua’s sincerity. This was the last assurance for her son.
Clearly, Liang Mingyu was very smart and had guessed it, so he made the right choice so quickly.
Thus, the two of them had a detailed chat and set up a trap.
Two days later, Liang Mingyu’s eyes were red and swollen. He led a group of people and sent Prince Jin, who was unable to speak, back to his residence.
He couldn’t speak because Prince Yi had done something to him.
After that, the entire Northern City knew that the princess from the previous dynasty had colluded with the North Prince of the Ge Kingdom to assassinate Prince Jin, who had gone out for a trip.
When Liang Mingyu, Prince Yi, and the others arrived, Secondary Consort Hua, had died from blocking a knife for Prince Jin, and Prince Jin was also poisoned.
Therefore, Liang Mingyu and Prince Yi asked Xiao Hanzheng to help detoxify Prince Jin. When Prince Jin’s body was able to sit in a carriage, they took him back to Prince Jin’s mansion.
Prince Yi first sent Prince Jin out of the city to meet up with Liang Mingyu, then re-entered Northern City for everyone to see.
Prince Jin couldn’t speak, and his hands were too weak to write, so he could only watch as Prince Yi cleared the obstacles in Prince Jin’s residence for Liang Mingyu to take over the mansion.
Regarding the idea of letting Prince Jin be unable to speak, Prince Yi had referenced how Xiao Yuanshi dealt with Ge Chunying.
Liang Mingyu was the crown prince to begin with, so it was only right for him to take over Prince Jin’s residence and power.
Prince Jin’s loyal followers had also been secretly dealt with by Prince Yi, so Liang Mingyu succeeded his father smoothly.
Although some people were suspicious, when Prince Yi entered the city, he also led princess from the previous dynasty and the North Prince into Northern City in a prisoner carriage.
Most people believed it, and those who didn’t had no choice.
Prince Yi even listened to Xiao Hanzheng’s preemptive strike and sent a document to the Ge Kingdom’s royal family, criticizing them for going too far and secretly harming Prince Jin.
At that time, the Ge Kingdom would not be able to blame the North Prince for being captured.
If in any case we had to go to war, they were definitely on the right side.
If the Ge Kingdom wanted to go to war, it would mean that they had not acknowledged their mistakes and had invaded Daliang, which would also led to bloodshed among the soldiers and people along the northern border.
When Prince Jin found out, he fainted from anger again.
He really felt that he was better off dead.
The imperial consort went to see her son immediately.
However, when she saw her son, who could neither move nor speak, the Imperial consort’s heart ached.
Prince Yi hadn’t left yet.
The imperial consort couldn’t help but raise her hand to slap Prince Yi’s face. Obviously, she didn’t believe his side of the story,
Liang Yulin didn’t move, but the imperial consort’s hand was grabbed by his personal attendant.
He looked at her coldly. “The imperial consort has overstepped her boundaries. You didn’t even have the right to hit me in the past, let alone now.”
When the late emperor was still alive, the imperial consort, who was still a noble consort, had already regarded him as a thorn in her eyes.
However, even the late emperor did not allow her to hit him, the legitimate Prince. Now that the late emperor was no longer there to back her up and Prince Jin was also crippled, she was just a cat with her nails cut.
The imperial consort was so angry that her entire body was shaking. “Liang Yulin, how can you be so vicious? He’s your brother, and you actually caused him to become like this.”
Liang Yulin looked at her sarcastically. “It looks like you haven’t have a clear picture of the situation. The North Prince and the princess from the previous dynasty were the ones who had harmed my royal brother. What does it have to do with me?”
The imperial consort glared at him.”You, you bastard!”
She didn’t believe Liang Yulin’s words.
Liang Yulin’s lips curled. “Imperial consort, rather than worrying about your son, you should worry about yourself.”
The imperial consort was stunned. “What are you thinking about? ”
“What, do you still want to kill me, the late emperor’s concubine?” She asked with a bit of ridicule.
If this were to spread, Prince Yi would have been disrespectful to the late emperor’s concubines and even caused voluntary harm to others; even the emperor’s reputation would be ruined. So she was not afraid.
Liang Yulin looked at her with a half-smile. “I wouldn’t go so far as to harm you. After all, you’re still my father’s concubine.
“However, I believe that the whole world should know that you are not a virtuous woman. After the late emperor passed away, you actually raised a courtyard full of male companions in Northern City.”
His words successfully caused the imperial consort’s expression to change.
