After marrying the heirless prince, I gave birth to three children

Chapter 395 She Confessed

When he was young, the Wei family encountered difficulties. Wei Zhe's leg was already injured, but he still had to pull his younger brothers and sisters to support the crumbling Wei family.

Under such circumstances, Wei Zhe did not forget him when he left Beijing, and secretly left him a lot of things and guards.

Xiao Ji said nothing, but he remembered it in his heart.

Although he didn't spend much time with the Wei family, in his heart, the Wei family were the closest to him.

Xiao Ji stepped forward and personally helped Wei Zhe up so that he didn't have to lower his head or bend his waist.

Wei Zhe said, "Your Majesty has misunderstood. I have absolutely no such intention."

After a pause, Wei Zhe said, "I went there last night to deliver medicine to Princess Huyan. The person I really know well is not Princess Yu."

"It's Princess Heart."

Xiao Ji frowned, looking puzzled. Who is this?

Xie Yao quickly searched her memory for this person's identity, "The Second Princess of Northern Frontier, Princess Huyan Xin?"

Wei Zhe suddenly raised his eyes, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes, "Your Majesty knows?"

Speaking of the princes of the Northern Frontier royal family, Xiao Ji naturally knew them all by heart. He also knew the princesses of the current royal family.

But Huyan Xin had been dead for three years and was an unpopular princess, so few people paid attention to her in the northern border.

The reason why Xie Yao knew so much was that after she knew about Hu Yanyu's affairs, she made a special trip to inquire about the matter.

And this Princess Huyan Xin...had the same experience as Huyan Yu.

"Yeah." A hint of regret flashed across Xie Yao's eyes. "I heard that Princess Huyan Xin is as her name suggests, kind and gentle."

Wei Zhe's eyes were filled with tenderness and nostalgia, "Your Majesty is right. Princess Xin is...really good."

Seeing this, what was there that Xiao Ji didn't understand?

The deceased Princess Huyanxin was Wei Zhe's sweetheart.

Looking back now, Wei Zhe's proposal to return to the Northern Territory yesterday also seems to have a clue. Wei Zhe wanted to be closer to his sweetheart.

"There were five princesses transformed by the Northern Frontier Concubine. Princess Xin was the oldest of them all. She was devoted to protecting the other four princesses and wanted to endure more pain for them."

"However, the other three princesses, except Hu Yanyu, passed away one after another. Princess Xin brought this matter to the attention of the Northern Frontier Emperor, but the late Northern Frontier Emperor remained unmoved."

"Princess Xin didn't want Princess Huyan Yu to follow in the footsteps of the other three princesses, so she wanted to take Princess Yu away."

"It was under such circumstances that I met Princess Xin."

When talking about the past, Wei Zhe's eyes were full of nostalgia.

"Princess Xin was already deeply poisoned and in great pain every day. I went to look for medicine for her."

"But when I returned from looking for the medicine, Princess Huyanyu had already been found and taken away by the Northern Frontier Imperial Noble Consort's men."

"Princess Xin was too weak to move, so she was left behind. Before she left, she asked me to... take care of Princess Yu."

Wei Zhe said ashamedly, "I didn't do it either. Because Princess Xin and Princess Yu escaped, the Imperial Concubine's control over Princess Yu became extremely strict."

"When I saw Princess Yu again, she had become very weak. I could only search for medicinal herbs everywhere. Last night... I went to deliver some medicine."

Xie Yao asked, "Can this medicine cure it?"

Wei Zhe shook his head. "It can't be cured, it can only alleviate the pain."

"It is also thanks to the doctor arranged by Your Majesty and Your Majesty that he helped me a lot." Wei Zhe said sincerely.

Xie Yao paused and asked, "Can we ask those doctors to go and see Princess Huyan?"

Although Xie Yao was very angry about what Huyan Yu did this time, if Wei Zhe asked for it, Xie Yao and Xiao Ji would be willing to give him face.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness, but it is not necessary." Wei Zhe said, "She will not agree."

He didn't even know if she would use the medicine he sent her.

At this moment, a clear female voice came from outside the palace, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Wei Chan requests an audience."

Wei Chan is here.

Xie Yao and Xiao Ji looked at Wei Zhe at the same time. It was obvious that Wei Chan came because of Wei Zhe.

Wei Zhe lowered his eyes and said nothing against it.

Xie Yao said, "Come in."

Wei Chan quickly entered the palace, "Your Highness, Your Majesty."

"Achan." Xie Yao stepped forward and helped her up, "Get up and talk."

Wei Chan was a smart person. As soon as she heard how Xie Yao addressed her, she understood what Xie Yao meant.

He immediately stood up and said, "Cousin."

Wei Zhe, who had originally maintained a calm expression, had never expected that Wei Chan would really go along with it and now call him by such a name... It was really an act of usurpation.

Xie Yao smiled happily and took Wei Chan's hand and sat down.

She and Wei Chan had always had a good relationship. They used to call each other that way when Xie Yao was still the Crown Princess.

Since it was a family matter, Wei Chan didn't feel any pressure when she talked about it.

"Cousin, I already know that my brother went to see Princess Huyan today." She entered the palace just for this matter.

Of course, she wanted to speak for Wei Zhe.

But judging from the current situation...it seems that it is no longer necessary.

Xie Yao said, "My cousin has just said that as long as Princess Huyan cancels her pursuit of Xuanshu, we can let this matter go."

Although Huyan Yu's men attacked Wei Chan and Wei Zhe's courtyard last night, Xie Yao and Xiao Ji had arranged sufficient manpower because they had been prepared in advance.

So last night, only the people of Xia were injured, and no one died.

In addition, Huyan Yu's situation meant that she didn't have much time left. Even if she let bygones be bygones, she would still lose her freedom and be confined in the house.

Xie Yao was naturally willing to give this face.

Wei Chan immediately looked at Wei Zhe. With such conditions, it could be said that His Majesty and His Majesty were very tolerant.

Wei Zhe was about to speak, saying, "Huyan Yu, she probably didn't attack Xuan Shu."

All three looked at Wei Zhe.

Wei Zhe said, "Huyan Ye doesn't truly love Huyan Yu. Huyan Yu won't avenge him."

Xie Yao thought about it and felt that it was indeed the case.

In order to avoid coming to Xia Kingdom as a hostage, Huyan Ye even abandoned his own brother Huyan Yuan. How could he possibly love his half-sister from the bottom of his heart?

But at this moment Xie Yao was a little confused.

She didn't know what Hu Yanyu was trying to do.

Wei Zhe seemed to understand Xie Yao's doubts and was about to explain when Si Nan's voice came from outside, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Princess Huyan requests an audience. She said she has something important to say."

Confessing again?

Xie Yao is now somewhat indifferent to Hu Yanyu's requests for an audience. He always comes to her with a lot of things to say, and from what she sees now, the things Hu Yanyu said in front of her before...

There is not a single truth.

Wei Zhe guessed something and said, "Your Majesty, please meet her."

Xie Yao said, "Announce."

Hu Yanyu today is less refined than before, but he looks more comfortable and natural.

When she entered the hall, her eyes immediately fell on Wei Zhe.

He rolled his eyes, then bowed to Xiao Ji and Xie Yao, "Hu Yanyu pays respects to His Majesty, Queen."

Huyan Yu did not hide her dislike for Wei Zhe at all, so Qi Yu and others in the hall saw the rolling eyes clearly.

Xie Yao just felt that Huyan Yu really had a feeling of letting himself go.

The whole person becomes more real.

"Princess Huyan, why did you ask to see me today?" Xie Yao asked.

Hu Yanyu said openly, "I'm here to confess my guilt."

"It was me who sent assassins to murder Xia's ministers Wei Zhe and Wei Chan last night. This was all ordered by the Northern Frontier Emperor Hu Yanyuan."

"Your Majesty and the Queen, please punish me."

Xie Yao understood something. She looked at Hu Yanyu and said, "The princess did it on purpose."

Until now, Hu Yanyu's purpose has not been for her mother, nor for revenge for Hu Yanye, and she has no intention of killing Xuanshu and Wei Zhe and Wei Chan.

All of Hu Yanyu's previous actions were to attract hatred for the Northern Frontier.

Just like her confession at this moment, she blamed all the guilt on herself and Hu Yanyuan of Beijiang.

Hu Yanyu’s real goal is the northern border.

In other words, the Northern Frontier Royal Family.

Hu Yanyu and Xie Yao exchanged a glance and knelt down. "Your Majesty, your Majesty has a keen eye. I knew my poor acting skills couldn't be hidden from you."

"I don't dare ask the Queen to help me get revenge. I just have something I want to give to the Queen."

After Hu Yanyu finished speaking, she took out a thin piece of paper from her sleeve, placed it between her hands, and knelt on the ground to respectfully present it in the direction of Xie Yao.

Wei Chan stepped forward, took the paper from Huyan Yu's hand, and handed it to Xie Yao.

Xie Yao originally didn't think that Huyan Yu would take out anything that would impress her, but when she really unfolded the paper and saw the contents clearly, her expression changed slightly.

She narrowed her eyes slightly, looked at Hu Yanyu and asked, "Is this true?"

"Whether it's true or not, the Queen can verify it herself." Huyan Yu was not afraid at all. This time, she was also plotting an open conspiracy.

The Northern Frontier is right there, and she doesn't believe that Xia Kingdom doesn't want it.

In addition to the reasons of justice, she also thoughtfully found a private reason for the emperor and empress of Xia.

Xie Yao did not question what Huyan Yu had just given her. After all, it was very easy to verify this matter.

"Princess, aren't you afraid of being cursed by the people of Northern Frontier for this action?"

Huyan Yu sneered, "Spit? I'm going to die, why should I be afraid of those things?" After she dies, who cares about the flood!

Hu Yanyu continued, "Queen, you are a good person. Even if you attack the northern border, you will not randomly massacre innocent people in the northern border."

"Besides, from what I've seen along the way, the people of Xia Country live much better than those in Northern Xinjiang, and it looks like the situation will only get better."

"So, I'm still helping them."

"The Huyan family, the Northern Frontier court... they shouldn't have existed long ago!" There was no concealed hatred in her voice.

When she and Sister Xin were tortured together, people in the court and the country were naturally not completely unaware of it.

But everyone chose to remain silent.

No one stood up to say a word for them, except for Hu Yanye who pretended to express concern after she was captured.

Almost treating her like a fool.

She is not stupid. She has experienced sincerity and can naturally distinguish between what is true and what is false.

She had long suspected that Xuanshu had attacked Huyanye, but not only did she not remind Huyanye, she even did some post-mortem work for Xuanshu to the best of her ability.

Help Xuanshu gain Huyan Ye's trust.

Hu Yanye, damn it!

There was silence in the hall.

Huyan Yu was also very tactful and quickly said, "Queen, I'll wait for your news." She knew that the Emperor and Empress of Xia would definitely discuss this matter, and they would not discuss it in front of her.

She wouldn't get an answer if she stayed here any longer, and it would only be an eyesore.

After Hu Yan finished speaking, he stood up and left, exiting Fengyi Palace.

Only then did Xie Yao hand the things Huyan Yu had just given her to Xiao Ji, with a hint of anger on her face.

There was nothing else written on the paper except the story about the poisonous insect that had previously infected Xiao Ji.

Although the incident was initiated by the late emperor, it was also related to the Northern Frontier, which was involved.

I have to say that Huyan Yu's move today really grasped her heart perfectly.

Neither Xie Yao nor Xiao Ji were the type to start a war or send soldiers into battle for personal reasons, but Beijiang... was truly ambitious.

How can you allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch?

While the Northern Frontier is still in civil strife, the Xia Kingdom is recuperating and developing well. In addition, Pei Chen, the Marquis of Zhenbei, and Wei Er are both in their prime, and it is the right age to work hard.

If we wait until Northern Frontier has recovered, I am afraid that if Xia Kingdom tolerates it, Northern Frontier will take the initiative to attack Xia Kingdom.

Xiao Ji only needed to look at Xie Yao's expression to understand what she was thinking.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty."

Wei Chan also stepped forward and said, "Northern Frontier is ambitious and his heart is worthy of death. We must not indulge him."

"Now... is the opportunity."

Hu Yanyu had made it very clear just now that she was willing to admit that her actions last night were instigated by Hu Yanyuan.

As long as Huyan Yu stood up, Xia State's attack would occupy an absolute moral high ground.

Perhaps before the Xia people could attack, Hu Yanyuan was killed by the court officials in the northern border.

Wei Zhe also said, "Your Majesty, please reconsider."

Obviously, they all agreed.

Although casualties are inevitable in war, if we do not take the ambitious northern border into our possession now that we have the opportunity, there will definitely be another war in the next few years, decades, or even decades.

Just like twenty years ago, Northern Xinjiang was still a vassal of the Xia Kingdom and sent Hu Yanyuan to the Xia Kingdom as a hostage, but in the past two years, it took action without hesitation.

Xie Yao and Xiao Ji looked at each other and said in unison, "Accurate!"

Hu Yanyu left Fengyi Palace, but before he left the palace, he was invited to the Yangxin Palace.

When Huyan Yu heard the servant coming to invite her, she knew what Xie Yao and Xiao Ji had chosen. The corners of her lips curled up slightly, and she turned around and followed Zhu Qing to the Yangxin Palace.

She looked up at the blue sky and felt so happy that she felt like she was flying.

The news quickly spread throughout Beijing.

Last night, an assassin tried to kill Lord Wei and Little Lord Wei, heroes of the Xia Kingdom. After investigation, it was confirmed that the person behind the plot was Princess Huyan Yu from the northern border.

The emperor and empress were furious.

Princess Huyan Yu testified in court that everything was arranged by the new emperor of Northern Frontier, Huyan Yuan, and she was threatened and had to obey his orders.

The emperor and empress did not punish Princess Huyan Yu severely because she had turned over a new leaf and turned to the light. Instead, they imprisoned the princess in the capital.

In less than half a day, the news had spread to everyone in the capital. Everyone in the capital was cursing the Northern Frontier's wolfish ambitions and wanted to kill them.

Naturally, the Northern Frontier Shichen also heard the news quickly. While the envoys were furious, they also couldn't help but feel a little confused.

Could it be that His Majesty the Northern Frontier really gave Princess Yu such an order?

Otherwise, where would Princess Yu get the manpower?
