Chapter 258 Gathering at the Palace



Chapter 258 Gathering at the Palace

Concubine Zhou's heart tightened and her eyelids twitched. "What do you mean by 'concubine Zhou'? I don't know what the prince is talking about."

"It's no use pretending to be stupid." Hui Chengyuan turned and looked at Fu Zhuoyang, "Send Concubine Zhou back to the other palace."

"Zhou Kangquan, Zhou Yanlin, Zhou Wangzhen, and Zhou Xiaotian disregarded the law and corrupted the government. They are hereby sentenced to death."

"The rest of the Zhou family will be taken to the prison for trial and sentencing."

Concubine Zhou, who was walking out, stopped and turned back to stare at Hui Chengyuan with wide eyes.

No, that's impossible. How did he find out?

No one in the Zhou residence knew, so how did he know?

He actually pointed out several people who had a relationship with her. Who betrayed her?

Zhou Yanlin and Zhou Wangzhen reacted the most. They jumped up and said, "Please spare our lives, Your Highness. We did not do this voluntarily."

"Not voluntary?" Hui Chengyuan looked at the two of them.

Zhou Yanlin's face flushed, "Your Highness, she thought I was threatening her with the exchange of my official position, so I had no choice but to obey. Please spare my life, Your Highness."

"Since you have obeyed, you must admit it."

"Send Concubine Zhou back to the other palace." Hui Chengyuan said, and was the first to leave the Zhou family.

After Ling Yang reported that those people had been executed, he headed towards the Xixi Palace.

Concubine Zhou thought that since Hui Chengyuan didn't touch her in the Zhou family, he would not do anything again. Unexpectedly, he just took her back to another palace to do it.

"Hui Xiao, I am your grandmother. You dare to attack me. Aren't you afraid of being punished by God?"

Hui Chengyuan looked at her, "God's punishment, this prince will never suffer from you."

"As for grandmother, you are not qualified to be the grandmother of this prince."

"Come here and give me some wine."

Two old maids stepped forward, subdued Concubine Zhou, and forced her to drink a cup of poisoned wine.

"Ahem, how on earth did you find out?"

Hui Chengyuan looked at her and said, "If you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself."

"However, the reason why the Zhou family was investigated in the first place was because Zhou Yanlin dared to slander the Crown Princess. This Crown Prince wants to know where he got the courage to plot against the Crown Princess."

"I checked and found out that it was you who gave it to me."

Hui Chengyuan left the palace after saying this, "After the burial, seal this palace."

……

When Fu Zhuoyin saw the glass bottle in the box, his eyes showed surprise.

"It is so transparent and colorful, it is really the best."

"Please thank Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess on my behalf. I will come to your house to express my gratitude someday."

Yuan Shi nodded, "Then I will take my leave."

Fu Zhuoyang came in and passed by Yuan Shi. When he saw the things on the table, he frowned and asked, "Where did you get this thing from?"

Fu Zhuoyin stood up and said, "The Crown Princess sent it here. Don't worry, brother. I bought it for five hundred taels."

He then told another story about Ming Lou, "Brother, this glass bottle is in short supply. The Crown Princess has helped so much. I'll ask my sister-in-law to come and thank you someday."

Fu Zhuoyang thought for a moment and said, "Let mother go. You know your sister-in-law's mouth. She can turn good things into bad things."

Fu Zhuoyin thought about it and fell silent.

His eldest sister-in-law was the daughter of a military general. She was good at martial arts and there was nothing wrong with her character, but what she said was always hard to listen to.

"Brother, I will give the glass bottle to Zhou Yanlin first."

Fu Zhuoyang said: "No need, Zhou Yanlin is already dead, and the entire Zhou family is in prison."

Fu Zhuoyin looked at him, "Why did he die suddenly?"

"Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask. I'll buy this glass bottle." Fu Zhuoyang said as he was about to take it.

Fu Zhuoyin quickly protected it, "Brother, I won't sell this glass bottle."

Fu Zhuoyang looked at him and said, "I bought it as a gift for your sister-in-law."

"That won't work either. Brother can find something else to give to sister-in-law." Fu Zhuoyin quickly held the glass bottle in his arms.

Fu Zhuoyang raised his eyebrows, "Are you really not going to give it to me?"

"If I use force, you won't be able to protect me either, so why bother?"

Fu Zhuoyin looked at him in disbelief, "Brother, how can you be so shameless?"

Half an hour later, Fu Zhuoyang returned to his yard with the box containing the glass bottle.

Fu Zhuoyin lay on the ground in pain, feeling very annoyed.

After the river sacrifice, Hui Chengyuan sent a letter to Song Minyan, Song Mincheng, Zhao Yaohong, and Wei Annan, inviting them to a gathering in the palace.

The four of them gathered at the palace gate, smiling at each other and entering the palace together.

As soon as the four of them sat down, Hui Chengyuan came over.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived."

The four of them stood up and saluted.

After Hui Chengyuan sat down, he said, "No need to be polite, please take a seat."

"We still need to wait for one more person. Please wait for a moment."

Song Minyan looked at them and asked, "Everyone is here, who else are you waiting for?"

"Don't worry, Third Prince. We'll be here soon." Hui Chengyuan waved to the maid to pour tea.

After they waited for about a quarter of an hour, the eunuch led someone in.

After Yun Xiang entered the hall, he was stunned when he saw the person sitting in the hall.

When Wei Annan saw the person coming in, he immediately stood up and saluted, "I am honored to meet the King of Xiang. I didn't know that the King of Xiang would come to Anguo, so I didn't greet him. I hope the King of Xiang won't be offended."

Song Minyan did not know Yun Xiang, but he had received the message from the Yun Kingdom, so he naturally knew who King Xiang was.

Several people stood up, "Thank you, King Xiang."

Yun Xiang forced a smile, "Thank you for your courtesy."

Then he looked at Hui Chengyuan and bowed to him, "What do you mean, Your Highness?"

Hui Chengyuan smiled and said, "You all came to Anguo for the same purpose. This prince doesn't have that much time to explain one by one, so I gathered you all together."

"Everyone, please take a seat and have a good chat."

After they sat down, Hui Chengyuan said, "I have already informed your majesties of your visit to Anguo. Whatever you want to know today, I will tell you everything."

Zhao Yaohong said, "Prince, we would like to meet Marquis Leshan. Is that possible?"

Song Mincheng nodded, "Yes, I have the same idea."

Hui Chengyuan smiled and nodded, "Go, ask Le Shanhou to come over."

"Yes, Your Highness." The eunuch waiting outside the door responded.

Not long after, Yao Yu walked in and said, "Your Highness, are you looking for me?"

Hui Chengyuan stood up and said, "Brother, please sit down."

Yao Yu nodded, bowed to his fellow prince, and sat down below Hui Chengyuan.

"Everyone, I, the prince, have invited Marquis Leshan. Please ask me anything you want to say." Hui Chengyuan said as he picked up the tea and started drinking.

Seeing this, Zhao Yaohong and others suddenly didn't know what to say.

Song Minyan stood up and bowed to Yao Yu, "My Lord, do you know that the State Master of Yun State predicted that a saint had appeared in An State?"

Yao Yu nodded, "I have heard of it, and I know that you are here for this saint."

"But what does this have to do with me?"

"Although I have donated a lot of food to Anguo, I am still not worthy of the title of saint."

"You may not know this, but I have already given Jubao Tower to the Crown Princess, and I will no longer be involved in business matters."

"I intend to travel around the world, so I can't be the saint you think I am."

Yun Xiang looked at him, "Did the Marquis really give the Jubao Tower to the Crown Princess?"

Yao Yu nodded, "Yes, if you check any of the properties under the name of Jubaolou, you will find that they have all been transferred to the Crown Princess' name."

Yun Xiang then asked, "I wonder when did the Marquis give the Treasure Tower to the Crown Princess?"

Yao Yu smiled and said, "That is the Crown Princess's dowry. When do you decide?"
