Quick Wear: This is my wife

Chapter 428 Prince VS Little Brother 28

In the eyes of everyone, Regent Fu Nanzhan has always been a ruthless and cruel person. He came here in person to give the Yong'an Marquisate a warning and let them know the consequences of offending the Regent.

The atmosphere in the court was as solemn as the calm before the storm.

Finally, one of the ministers could no longer suppress his inner anxiety and impulse, so he stepped forward and loudly advised, "Your Majesty, I heard that the Regent sent a letter on behalf of the palace inviting young ladies and young men from aristocratic families to come to the palace to enjoy the flowers, but why is the name of the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion not mentioned?

The Yong'an Marquisate is also a prestigious family with outstanding achievements in our dynasty. Moreover, the Regent Prince is the legitimate son of the Yong'an Marquisate. If he behaves like this, wouldn't he be unfilial and unworthy of being a son?"

As soon as these words were spoken, there was a burst of whispers in the court. Seeing this, several ministers came forward to echo them. For a while, voices condemning the regent were heard one after another.

Fu Runze sat upright on the dragon throne, his face calm as water, but his eyes were deep and wise.

He watched all this calmly and listened quietly to the ministers' criticism of the Regent's Palace until the voices gradually subsided.

He then slowly turned his gaze towards Fu Nanzhan and asked softly, "Does the Regent have anything to say? Or does the Yong'an Marquisate also think the same?"

Fu Nanzhan leaned lazily on the chair, his posture seemed casual and relaxed, but his eyes revealed a chilling majesty.

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he asked, "Is this what Yong'an Marquis Mansion also means?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes turned to Marquis Yong'an.

Yong'an Hou hurriedly stepped forward, his face filled with grievance and innocence, and he cried hypocritically, "Your Majesty, the Yong'an Hou Mansion believes that it is not at fault, but..."

The voice sounded extremely miserable, but anyone with a discerning eye could see the hypocrisy and affectation in it.

Fu Nanzhan snorted coldly, interrupting the Yong'an Marquis's performance. His voice was cold and firm, and he said, "This prince understands. Come here, the Yong'an Marquis's family has deceived the emperor and violated the superiors. They must be confiscated and their entire family exterminated."

This short sentence was like a thunderclap exploding in the hall. All the ministers were stunned. For a moment, the entire court fell into deathly silence.

"Your Majesty, I am innocent! How can the Regent be so slanderous? I..." Marquis Yong'an was terrified and opened his eyes wide, trying to argue again. However, Fu Nanzhan did not give him any chance and interrupted him coldly again.

“It’s clearly written on the post that the invitation is for the eldest daughter of an aristocratic family and a young man.

Do you have a legitimate daughter or a legitimate son? How dare you use your fakes to confuse the royal bloodline? You deserve death!

Bribing the Imperial Preceptor that day and secretly replacing the person who was supposed to bring good luck to this prince is clearly an attempt to put this prince to death. Furthermore, after His Majesty issued the decree, you dared to openly replace the person in the Yong'an Marquisate. Isn't this a blatant disregard for the imperial authority?

"I haven't dealt with you this whole time, but it's only because of the prince's face. But yesterday, your maid from the Yong'an Marquisate ran to the Regent Prince's Palace and spoke rudely to the prince. Did the Dayong family change their surname to Xiao?"

Fu Nanzhan spoke slowly and steadily, as if he was discussing an insignificant household matter, but every word he said was like a heavy hammer, hitting the heart of Yong'an Hou hard, making him break out in a cold sweat, his back already soaked with sweat.

"Your Majesty, I am wronged! The Imperial Master calculated that the third son in my family could bring good luck, and Xiao Yubai is indeed my biological son.

That year, his wife gave birth prematurely on the road, so he had no choice but to give birth to the child in the countryside. In a panic, he took the wrong baby away, which caused a series of misunderstandings.

I have absolutely no intention of harming the Prince Regent!" Yong'an Hou was deeply regretful at this moment. He never thought that the scene he caused in the court today would bring about such a disaster.

"Humph, Marquis Yong'an is quite calculating!" The Minister of Revenue, who had been silent until then, suddenly spoke up with a mocking smile on his face. "This newly found child has no emotions, and the regent's life or death was unknown at the time. You've got a really clever plan!"

Fu Runze knew clearly in his heart that his young uncle was determined to clean up the Yong'an Marquis Mansion today, and he just needed to watch the show from the sidelines.

Besides, the Minister of Revenue has always been his man. Although he is young, he can be trusted.

With him adding fuel to the fire, I don't think this matter will end well today.

"Your Majesty, I am guilty. Please punish me." Marquis Yong'an didn't dare to mention the invitation again at this time. He knew it in his heart.

The emperor obviously already knew that Xiao Yuyu was adopted. If he mentioned it again, he would probably end up having his property confiscated and his family exterminated.

"Marquis Yong'an has disrespected the imperial power and deceived the emperor. He deserves to be put to death." Fu Nanzhan added slowly from the side. The murderous intent in his tone made everyone shudder. The meaning was obvious: today, the Marquis Yong'an would be skinned alive if he didn't die.

"Your Majesty..." Marquis Yong'an still wanted to struggle and continue to defend himself, but the other ministers had already been intimidated by Fu Nanzhan's momentum and were terrified. How could they dare to plead for him?

"The Yong'an Marquisate didn't even raise Prince Wang, and even asked him to marry off in a place of his own. The servants in the house even dared to go to the palace to find fault with Prince Wang. In the month since he was adopted, I still don't know how they treat him." Then Fu Nanzhan continued,
