Of course, Yu Lingjing knew that his master wanted to solve the problem for him, but since he had promised his wife, he had to do it. Thinking of this, Yu Lingjing's long and narrow eyes flashed with a gentle light. He said lightly, "If you can't defeat the crown prince, then you'll imprison her for life!"

The butler understood the prince's meaning! He did not want to kill the spy. Since that was the case, then let him be. Imprisoning him was also good.

At the foot of the imperial court, before the emperor had even ascended to the throne, a crowd of officials was already gathered around Yu Lingjing, discussing her: "I've heard that Your Highness executed a spy? I wonder if that is true? " A civil servant with some pockmarks on his face asked with a chuckle.

Yu Lingjing glanced at the officials surrounding him and saw the crown prince Yu Hanfeng glaring at him with anger in his eyes. Yu Lingjing's mouth curved into a faint smile: "You reckless fool!" This is simply asking for it! " These words seemed to be said for the official who had just spoken to him, but it was actually said for the crown prince beside him. This time, he, Yu Lingjing, gave the crown prince another ruthless slap on the face.

When the officials surrounding Yu Lingjing saw the Regent, who had been laughing for a long time, they laughed and spoke indifferently. They knew that he was right. The group of ass-kissers said in succession.

"Your highness is really powerful! "As expected of the War God of the Hao Yue Empire?"

"Your highness is our role model. If not, all of the officials here will feel threatened!"

"Prince's actions are really doing this for the sake of the people to get rid of harm. To spread the might of our dynasty!"

"..."

"My lords, you're too serious!"

These lackey's flattery was incoherent. Wasn't it related to the Yang Empire's national might to just gather up a small subject? How ridiculous! However, Yu Lingjing was not in the mood to listen to their flattery, he only laughed and chatted with them, his gaze fixed on the crown prince, Yu Lingjing. His vicious, super conceited nephew was his opponent, and also someone worthy of his attention.

The veins on the crown prince's face were popping out and his heart was filled with rage. Yu Lingjing was very happy inside. If you had the ability to arrange for a spy in my Residence of Regent, how could you not have thought that this would happen?

The Emperor has arrived!" Following the shrill and delicate voice of a eunuch, a middle-aged man dressed in a dragon robe with nine dragons' golden threads and a dragon crown on his head walked to the front of a dazzling golden dragon throne.

The civil and military officials below the court quickly lined up in two neat rows and knelt down together, shouting: "We greet the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! "

"Everyone, please rise!" Emperor Yu Lingxuan slowly said as he sat on the dragon throne, waving his arm.

"Thank you, your majesty!" The officials shouted in unison.

"Oh my royal brother? I heard that my royal sister was poisoned. I wonder if my royal sister is well? " Yu Lingxuan indifferently asked.

Yu Lingjing took a step forward and cupped his fists, saying indifferently: "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty! This lowly concubine was lucky to escape this calamity! " If Yu Lingjing could say less to the emperor, then so could he. The so-called 'monarch's heart is hard to fathom'. Who knows what the emperor would think in the next moment?

"Did you catch the murderer?" At the same time, he also wanted to know just how his royal brother had dealt with this murderer.

"I ask for Your Majesty's blessings! The culprit has been captured and executed by this humble subject! "

"Oh? Did you find out who ordered it? " Yu Lingxuan was more concerned about this seemingly random question. Was this murderer sent out by his son, or was it related to his son?

"No!" The murderer would rather die than submit. This humble subject feels that there's no point in continuing the investigation, and will directly execute her! " Yu Ling Jing said calmly, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.

At the same time, the crown prince's bloodthirsty eyes could not wait to hack Yu Ling Jing to pieces! Was that his Merlin in the cold wind, his baby? You, Yu Lingjing, gave it to me just because you said so? You want to oppose this crown prince to the end? Since that's the case, I'll accompany you to the end. Yu-Ling Jing, you wait for me. I swear I will make you pay a heavy price to pay for Merlin's death.

"My royal brother handled it well!" For someone who has taken such a risk, we should make an example of him! " As Yu Lingxuan spoke, the corners of his mouth raised in a curve that no one else could see. Luckily, this killer had nothing to do with his son, or even if it was related to his own son, he still hadn't betrayed his son. He couldn't help but feel relieved in his heart.

"Three days later, the envoy of the Beichen Kingdom and the princess of the Beichen Kingdom will arrive at the Hao Yue Empire. My dear officials, who would be willing to welcome them for me?" This envoy from ancient times was either someone from the royal family, or a high status official from a respected country. However, the officials of this "beautiful lady" Yu Lingxuan were unwilling to do the work for him, and those officials who ate royal food and did not bother with proper matters also sped up the turmoil and uneasiness of the Emperor of Hao Yue, burying the potential dangers of war in the future.

"Your Majesty! This humble subject believes that welcoming the emissaries and princesses of the Beichen Kingdom is a matter that reflects the talents and military might of our Haoyue Kingdom! Therefore, this humble subject believes that he must send a handsome, extraordinary, highly talented, exceptional martial arts, and highly respected person to go! This humble subject believes that the Regent is the best choice! " The one who spoke was the Minister of the Right, who was as famous as the Minister of the Left.

"Right Prime Minister is right!" Yu Lingxuan smiled as he looked at Yu Lingjing, "I wonder what your royal brother thinks?" He sounded like he was discussing something with Yu Ling Jing, but the emperor did want her to go. Actually, this method of questioning was just a courtesy from the Emperor. There was no need to take it seriously. If you really don't agree to go there, there's a lot of trouble.

How could Yu Ling Jing not understand the meaning behind his words? He cupped his fists and said slowly, "This humble subject shall be decided by Your Majesty!"

I, Yu Ling Jing, am not someone to be trifled with. If I were to head there actively, the Emperor's suspicions would make him think that I have other intentions? If I did not go, would the Emperor think I would not serve him, or was there some other purpose? Is it not the best choice, whether I go or not? Since that's the case, the Emperor threw a hot potato at me, I'll throw it back to you, I, Yu Lingjing, will completely listen to His Majesty's arrangements, if you ask me to go, I'll go, if you don't want me to, then I won't go.

"What do you think?" Yu Lingxuan calmly asked the Minister. He didn't say that he would directly send Yu Lingjing to meet the envoys, but rather asked the other ministers for their intentions. No matter what the result was, it wasn't the Emperor that had his own intentions, but the various ministers'.

"His Royal Highness is the best choice!" All the ministers said in unison. These fence-sitters had long seen through the emperor's intentions. They were just doing him a favor. In any case, they weren't going alone.

"Royal brother!" Look at this? " Yu Lingxuan pretended to have an awkward expression. This meant that the ministers had sent you, not my royal brother? What a great acting, playing both a good emperor and a good brother.

"If that's the case! This humble official shall go! " Yu Lingjing looked at the place where the masses were hoping for. She had to go, why not follow the wishes of these people?

"Royal Uncle must establish a good relationship with the Beichen Kingdom this time, so that we can have a convenient time in the future!" The Crown Prince, Yu Hanfeng, said mockingly. His meaning was clear, it was for Royal Uncle to take advantage of this opportunity to meet the envoys of the Beichen Kingdom and rope them in so that it would be convenient to rebel in the future.

"The Crown Prince is right. This king will definitely establish a friendly relationship with Beichen Kingdom for the Emperor of Hao Yue in order to ensure the peace of our nation!" Yu Lingjing looked at the crown prince as he spoke, cupping his hands in salute towards the emperor.

"Royal Uncle sure is eloquent!" It seems like this prince will have to learn from you in the future! " Imperial Cold Wind saw that Yu Ling Jing had dispelled the other meaning in his words, and said with a sneer.

"Where? The Crown Prince was joking! If you were to say that This King needs to learn from the crown prince, then in terms of scheming, This King will willingly admit defeat! " Yu Lingjing's mouth curved into a faint smile. The meaning behind those words were that in terms of scheming and scheming, I, Yu Lingjing, am far inferior to you, Crown Prince.

Seeing these two fight, Yu Lingxuan was satisfied. He did not want these two to ruin his mood. Looking at the eunuch beside him, he loudly shouted: "Withdraw!"

The ministers all dispersed one by one. Yu Ling Jing tidied his clothes and prepared to return home. Who would have thought that just as he took a step, he would be called to a halt by the crown prince, Yu Hanfeng. "Royal Uncle, please wait a moment?"

Yu Lingjing looked at the crown prince with a smile on his face and slowly said, "I don't know what the crown prince would like to advise me?"

"I've heard that Royal Uncle executed a spy. I presume that Imperial Uncle's mood must be very good, right?" The Crown Prince stared at Yu Ling Jing with a sinister look on his face.

Yu Lingjing suddenly felt that his nephew was not simple. He had just dealt with his woman, and he was still in the mood to joke with him. Yu Lingjing said complacently: "It's not that I'm proud!" It was just a false alarm, but luckily, this humble concubine's fate was great and everything was safe! It was just a pity that the spy who had tried to harm her, the beautiful lady who was as beautiful as snow, had disappeared without a trace? Sigh … What a pity, but she was carrying a child in her womb, a corpse and two lives? "

Yu Hanfeng's eyes immediately glowed with a pitiful light as he angrily roared at his flesh and blood, as though he was going to explode at any moment. He tightly clenched his fists and was about to charge forward to tear the murderer who killed his woman and child into a thousand pieces. The last wisp of reason told him that he could not, that things had come to this, that he had to be patient, that he had to wait for an opportunity, that it was the best comfort to Merlin and the child that he knew about, if only to get rid of Yu-Ling-Jing.

Thinking of this, Yu Hanfeng closed his eyes and took a deep breath, slowly releasing his tightly clenched fist. He immediately put on a calm face, looked at Yu Lingjing, pretending to be envious, and said, "Imperial Uncle sure is lucky!"

"This King does not care about that! But it's still better than some people, who lose both their husband and their troops! " After Yu Ling Jing finished speaking, he glanced at Yu Ling Han, and then left with a complacent look on his face.

Looking at Yu Ling Jing's receding figure, Yu Feng's face became ferocious again.
