Feng Qing’s expression changed several times, and Rong Ling naturally noticed. He raised an eyebrow and asked lightly, “What’s wrong?”

Feng Qing didn’t want Rong Ling to know her thoughts and immediately changed the subject, “Prince, do you think the Emperor in the palace will really watch Han Ziyan die with open eyes? I heard that during the recent selection, an imperial concubine was favored by the Emperor just because she resembled Han Ziyan a bit, and he even promoted her two ranks at once. If that’s the case, it should be impossible for him to just watch Han Ziyan die like this, right?”

As Feng Qing finished speaking, without waiting for Rong Ling to speak, she thoughtfully added, “The Emperor wouldn’t instruct someone to replace Han Ziyan, would he?”

As Feng Qing finished speaking, Rong Ling suddenly interjected, “I wish the Emperor would replace the Han Family.”

After hearing Rong Ling’s words, Feng Qing suddenly understood the purpose of Rong Ling bringing her to the West City today. He suspected that the Little Emperor had replaced Han Ziyan, no, given Rong Ling’s ability, he might have already investigated thoroughly. Today, at the execution site in the West Suburb, the prisoner to be executed is not Han Ziyan; Han Ziyan must have been taken away by the Little Emperor.

Rong Ling brought her to the West Suburb execution site precisely to uncover such a matter.

Later, when they expose a certain concubine in the palace to be Han Ziyan, this Dog Emperor Rong Che will become a shameless, lecherous figure in the eyes of the scholars across the world, even seizing the woman of his own Uncle.

Feng Qing understood the reasoning and lightly praised, Rong Ling is truly a good strategist.

Actually, from the moment Han Ziyan entered the mansion, she was a pawn in Rong Ling’s hand, precisely because of this reason, Rong Ling would repeatedly tell her that there was no need to care about Han Ziyan.

Feng Qing realized this reason and turned to smile at Rong Ling, “Then let’s go escort Han Concubine.”

“Alright,” his voice was gentle and soft.

At the West Suburb execution site, quite a number of people surrounded the place. Han Ziyan, the daughter of An Nan Marquis Mansion, bestowed by the Empress Dowager as Princess Guangling, was granted by the Empress Dowager into Prince Yong’s Mansion as a concubine. Unexpectedly, this woman dared to use a Poisonous Gu to poison Prince Yong.

People couldn’t figure out the reason behind it; wasn’t it said that Princess Guangling really liked Prince Yong? How could she attempt to poison the Prince in the end?

Among the crowd, many people whispered to each other.

“It seems that Princess Guangling didn’t like Prince Yong after all.”

“Maybe the so-called liking in the past was just an illusion.”

“Hmm, I heard that Princess Guangling and the current Emperor were childhood friends; the Emperor really likes Princess Guangling.”

“Do you think the supposed affection of Princess Guangling for Prince Yong was nothing but a scheme?”

The speaker dared not continue, as it involved the current Emperor, and ordinary people do not dare to discuss matters of the Royal Family.

On the Execution Platform, Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice looked at the dense crowd outside the platform, occasionally raising his hand to wipe his sweat.

Even though it was October, he involuntarily broke out in sweat on his forehead.

Others didn’t know, but Vice Minister Wen knew that the woman scheduled for execution today was not the so-called concubine from Prince Yong Mansion, but another person.

When Vice Minister Wen first took over this case, he didn’t understand the complications involved until he received instruction from the person above; he was almost bewildered, as he knew that if this matter was not handled properly, not only would he lose his official cap, but even his own life would be at risk.

Vice Minister Wen desperately wished to immediately execute the prisoner; once the person is dead, it’s over. If not dead, it will inevitably create unrest.
