Chapter 152: Zhaoyangโ€™s Betrayal

Marrying a princess was beneficial, but not harmful.

The court had parted on bad terms. ๐’‡๐˜ณ๐ž๐šŽ๐“Œ๐‘’๐‘๐’๐‘œ๐™ซโ„ฏl.c๐š˜๐’Ž

After the court session, Nalan Chen changed his angry look and trim the flowers in a good mood.

He was happy that he could make Gu Ruoyun suffer.

He did not expect things to turn around so quickly. The day before that day, he had even taunted Gu Ruoyun in court for being shameless.

On that day, in court, Zhaoyang had been lying when he had summoned her.

This child did not belong to Guang Pingwang.

Nalan Chen stared gloomily at Zhaoyang, who was kneeling on the ground, and asked, โ€œDo you know what you were saying just now?โ€

Zhaoyangโ€™s expression was a little frightened. She stole a glance at Gu Ruoyun and replied with a trembling voice, โ€œThis child of mine is an illegitimate child of mine. It has nothing to do with Guang Pingwang.โ€

Nalan Chen could tell from her expression that Gu Ruoyun had done something. He silently cursed Zhaoyang in his heart for being useless. f๐“‡๐˜ฆ๐’†๐˜„๐‘’๐—ฏ๐‘›๐—ผัต๐™šl.๐’„๐˜ฐ๐“ถ

He looked at the red scar on her neck that had inadvertently appeared.

He immediately got down from the imperial throne and helped Zhaoyang up from the ground. He acted like a good brother and asked, โ€œWhat happened to the injuries on your body? Could it be that someone had beaten you into a confession?โ€

The meaning in his words was directed at Gu Ruoyun.

Zhaoyang shook her head and denied it. She repeatedly claimed that the child had nothing to do with Guang Pingwang.

Gu Ruoyun replied coldly, โ€œI see that the Emperor is always trying to pin this sh*t on me.โ€

Nalan Chen knew that he was being too deliberate. However, things have already come to this and he could not watch Gu Ruoyun escape unscathed.

He replied, โ€œIโ€™m also worried about my little sister.โ€

Gu Ruoyun replied mockingly, โ€œEmperor, you should take a look at this first.โ€

The assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites handed a small booklet to Nalan Chen. On it was a detailed record of how Zhaoyang had framed Su Yan, the identity of the man she had found, and how she had killed him afterward. It was written clearly.

One look and it was obvious that this was not something that could be fabricated.

This kind of thing could be easily verified with a single look.

Nalan Chenโ€™s expression was a little gloomy. In the next second, he fiercely slammed Zhaoyang onto the ground and said in disappointment, โ€œIt was a waste of my trust in you. I had almost hurt the Guang Pingwangโ€™s heart.โ€

He then gave his orders, โ€œPass down my orders. Princess Zhaoyang has been demoted to a commoner. From now on, she has nothing to do with the imperial family.โ€

Nalan Chen looked at Gu Ruoyun and said, โ€œIโ€™ve really wronged Guang Pingwang. Iโ€™ll definitely give you an explanation.โ€

He then changed the topic, โ€œHowever, itโ€™s still inappropriate to use lynchings in the palace. This time, I shall take back the military authority of the Hewei Region from Guang Pingwangโ€™s hands as a form of punishment.โ€

This was his true goal.

The military authority was divided into four categories: Rongping Region, Caosheng Region, Shanghe Region, and the Hewei Region.

The Hewei Regionโ€™s military authority was the weakest and was basically dispensable.

This was also Nalan Chenโ€™s plan. The imperial kingdom could not leave Gu Ruoyunโ€™s influence and he was prepared to slowly weaken his power.

He would never allow himself to be trampled on by a prince like his father.

It could be said that the imperial family of the Imperial Kingdom had always been living under Gu Ruoyunโ€™s shadow.

If they could not win the battle, they would have to rely on him. This had already become a shadow in their hearts.

No matter who it was, the first person to be dealt with would definitely be Gu Ruoyun.

Gu Ruoyun looked at Nalan Chen mockingly and said icily, โ€œWhy go through so much trouble? Iโ€™ll hand this talisman over to the Emperor today. Iโ€™m not young anymore. Itโ€™s time for me to return home in glory.โ€

After he had finished speaking, he did not wait for the next court session. Under everyoneโ€™s astonished gazes, he said, โ€œIโ€™ll have to trouble the Emperor to announce what Zhaoyang has done to the world. Otherwise, my princess consort will be jealous.โ€

Nalan Chen looked at the Tiger Talisman on the table. It was clearly what he wanted, but the other party had handed it over. He didnโ€™t even have the strength to connect it.

There was simply nothing more pathetic than this.

This familiar scene made the ministers instantly recall the fear of being dominated by Guang Pingwang.
