Transmigrating into the Prince Regent’s Beloved Runaway Wife

The letter was on the top of the pile of books. Obviously, someone put it here to let him see it on purpose.

Lin Bozhou’s eyes were narrowed, and his fingers paused. Chen Que stood respectfully beside him and said, “This was handed to the cabinet by the Elder, saying that it is to be presented to His Majesty and Your Highness, and he asked this subject to pass it on his behalf.”

“Oh?” Lin Bozhou raised his eyes, and his misty eyes fell on him.

After all, he almost forgot about this scenario. He and Elder Cui were fighting with each other now while the Qingliu Party was waiting to see the excitement and reap benefits when the two sides were locked in dispute.

Lin Bozhou’s gaze fell. He pressed the cover page of the letter and asked meaningfully, “Have you guys read it? Tell me what you think.”

This was to pull the Qingliu Party into the water, so Elder Cui also hated them.

Chen Que was polite, bowing his head and saying, “This subject does not dare to look, nor do we know the details. We are waiting for Your Highness to decide.”

He softly deflected Lin Bozhou’s words back.

Lin Bozhou smiled and said, “This prince is the person involved, so he fears that it is unfair to judge this matter. Since you guys do not look, this prince will not look either. Leave it to His Majesty.”

The cabinet ministers bowed their heads one after another. “Yes.”

In their hearts, they gritted their teeth. As expected, Lin Bozhou is Lin Bozhou.

This Elder Cui’s self-statement letter, after reading it, you would have to express an opinion. And if someone had taken the lead in reprimanding Elder Cui, but the letter’s content was enough to clear Elder Cui, then the person who spoke first would have gotten into trouble.

Lin Bozhou also didn’t look, pushing the topic to the emperor.

Thus, this self-statement letter was handed to Emperor Xuan He, who was furious at hearing about the Jianzhou rebellion and the kidnapping of his sister-in-law by An Chui in Cui Renfang’s house, and he let out a raging dragon roar in the Yangxin Hall. “Cui Renfang has collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the state! Take this sycophant and traitor to the Northern Zhenfu Division immediately! Immediately!!!”

His anger value shot up to a point.

Pei Xiyi said tentatively, “Your Majesty, Elder Cui is the current chief minister. If the chief minister is imprisoned, won’t it cause some unrest in the court and may cause criticism?”

Emperor Xuan He: “The chief minister? Can the chief minister be as important as the imperial brother? Can the chief minister be as important as the imperial sister-in-law? Can it be as important as the lives of the Liaodong people? Go and arrest him immediately! If there is any delay, you will be punished as well!”

Lin Bozhou was waiting for these words.

He lowered his eyes and stood up: “Yes.”

The sun finally set. When Lin Bozhou’s carriage returned to the entrance of the prince’s residence, Cui Renfang had already been imprisoned in the Northern Zhenfu Division.

However, when his black boots had just stepped on the stool and onto the marble path, he saw a group of people kneeling outside the door of the prince’s residence. Elder Cui’s wife and children, including Cui Han, the one he had slapped, were kneeling on the ground and kowtowing incessantly.

“Your Highness, my grandfather was wronged, Your Highness!”

“Grandfather was originally a commoner in Shaoxing, but he relied on the virtue of the Great Zong and joined the court through the examination to support and revitalize his family. He was loyal to the Great Zong, born as a member of the Great Zong and died as a ghost of the Great Zong. How could he collide with the enemy and betray the state? Your Highness! There must be some misunderstanding!”

“Your Highness, my husband is old and suffers from an illness. I’m afraid he can’t stand the torment in prison. Begging Your Highness for mercy! Begging Your Highness for mercy!”

Lin Bozhou lowered his eyes and let someone pick up Elder Cui’s wife, saying without emotion in his tone, “If Elder is innocent, the Northern Zhenfu Division will give him justice. It was His Majesty’s decree to imprison Elder Cui. The court’s family members should understand the court’s procedures and wait for the trial’s results instead of coming to this prince’s residence to cry and make things difficult for this prince.”

Lin Bozhou turned his face sideways and walked towards the prince’s residence without looking back, saying, “The princess is not feeling well, and this prince has to take care of him. Excuse me.”

Elder Cui’s family kneeling outside the prince’s residence had never suffered such a defeat after several years of rampant dominance in the imperial court. They shed tears and let their subordinates help them to stand up, looking at the lofty and luxurious prince’s residence with fear flashing across their eyes.

And also hatred.

The carriage of the Cui residence went back. With tears on her face, Old Madam Cui gritted her teeth and said, “If the prince regent had not been invited by His Lordship six years ago, how could he have come to the capital? At that time, His Lordship supported him, and he would talk to him and even personally serve tea to him. How come now that he has gained a firm foothold, he has turned his face away so quickly!”

It was silent inside the carriage. Cui Lang, who had followed and knelt for a while, was silent, and only then did he say, “Grandmother, don’t be sad. Talking about feelings to a cold-blooded, heartless person like him would have been an extravagant hope. We were naive and childish.”

Old Madam Cui’s face was full of tears as she grabbed his hand. “Lang-er.”

Cui Lang heavily kowtowed, “Grandfather suffered an injustice. This grandson will definitely clear the injustice for grandfather!”
