Chapter 467 Yearning
"stop!"
The girl's clear voice prevented a life from being extinguished.
When Bei Jingchu saw that the person was still alive, she stopped to catch her breath and held onto the door frame to calm her breathing.
When Minister Cao saw her, his face immediately turned dark.
"How could His Royal Highness the Crown Prince be in my house and enter the forbidden area without permission? Can you do whatever you want and break into private houses just because you are the crown prince?"
If those in high positions could come and go freely in the residences of their subjects, wouldn't their secrets be exposed?
Who dares to say that his hands are completely clean?
Bei Jingchu took a breath, stood up straight, and did not fall into Minister Cao's trap. Did he want to convict her and accuse her?
If she breaks into the mansion without permission, even she will be punished and attacked by these guilty ministers.
She walked in comfortably, smiling.
"Who said it was trespassing? I just received an invitation from Madam Cao."
She took out an invitation, which looked exactly like an invitation from Cao.
Minister Cao choked and turned around to see that his unfilial daughter was also shocked, and it didn't seem like she had planned to call for help.
Of course, this invitation was not handed over by Madam Cao.
Whenever the Cao family held a banquet or something, they would send invitations to the Eastern Palace.
Although she was not going, she still had to be polite and courteous, and Bei Jingchu had to return the gift after accepting the invitation.
Even if the reply is perfunctory, it is real money. My heart bleeds every time I see the bill.
It has been put to use today, and it is not difficult to copy one from the past.
Obviously, the old fox Minister Cao also guessed something and narrowed his eyes.
"No one from the Cao family sent a letter to the Eastern Palace. I wonder how Your Highness received it?"
Bei Jingchu shrugged.
"Who knows? Anyway, I received it."
As long as she doesn't admit that she forged the document, as a minister, how could I dare to torture her to extract a confession?
"It proves that Minister Cao is not in charge of the household and doesn't even know the movements of the people in the mansion."
Minister Cao choked, but Bei Jingchu turned the tables.
"But after entering, I found that there was no banquet in the mansion. Could it be that you were playing a trick on the crown prince?"
Minister Cao: "......"
What a good way to put the blame on someone else.
When he was silent, Bei Jingchu grabbed Madam Cao's arm with one hand and lifted her up.
Perhaps because her legs were numb from kneeling for so long, Mrs. Cao could not stand steadily and fell to the ground again.
She could only support herself with one hand and let the person lean on her shoulder.
Minister Cao bit his cheek and answered her question.
"...I dare not."
"But I am teaching my daughter today. Even if Your Highness is of noble status, you cannot interfere in my family affairs, right?"
.
"According to the Dai Viet Code, parents can teach their children, but they cannot kill them."
Bei Jingchu glanced to the side.
"The poisoned wine is ready. Does Minister Cao want to kill the people of Dai Viet in front of me?"
Minister Cao understood what she had heard. If he dared to take action today, she would send him to jail tomorrow on charges of murder, turning him from a prime minister into a prisoner.
By then, let alone the family honor, he will be the laughing stock of the entire court. Even the Cao family will suffer a devastating blow because of him.
Therefore, clans execute clan members in private, and everyone knows it tacitly. It is not exposed to the public, and the officials will not investigate unless the people sue.
But today I was controlled in a tough manner.
Minister Cao stared at Bei Jingchu with his eyes, as if he wanted to stare through her.
Bei Jingchu was not afraid at all and looked back at him calmly.
Madam Cao, who was leaning against the side, had bright eyes. This was the man she longed for. He was about the same age as her, but he was able to suppress her unattainable father.
