Transmigration : Avenging The Good For Nothing

Chapter 15

Next Day

Concubine Xu's courtyard catching fire was known to everyone in the capital within a short time.

The Official in the morning court were cautious in front of the emperor. They spoke carefully, dared not to make unnecessary arguments in fear of angering his majesty.

The beloved Concubine Xu soon become a taboo.

In fourth prince's palace

Taehyung was arranged to stay in jinyue's courtyard with jimin.

The little master jeon also stayed. It's not a big deal as first prince often brings him to live here when he's out for some mission with Duke Jeon.

They are all relatives anyway.

"tsk tsk the emperor is heartless. How could he just burn his favorite concubine alive!!", jimin sighed.

"The word 'Love' is not something the emperor can afford. For him beautiful young woman are just for pleasure. Yesterday's new concubine might take Concubine Xu's place overnight ", jinyue said.

"Maybe the emperor did have some affection for concubine Xu, afterall she once saved him from an arrow", Taehyung told recalling the plot; "Good thing we eliminated her early".

"It almost costed your life silly", jimin retorted. Taehyung laughed.

In the original plot Concubine Xu was pregnant with second prince's child but was forced to perform abortion secretly.

This time jinyue always let someone follow her every move and with Taehyung's help they exposed her through the imperial physician jimin bought with two gold ingots.

The imperial physician listened to them and lied about her being three months pregnant which in reality she's just two months pregnant.

Now that second prince's most trusted adviser is eliminated, he will surely feel threatened and make mistakes.

The next day in the morning court, a new incident occurred.

King Song, emperor's biological brother was reported for corruption.

It is said that the tax collected from vessel countries had a special portion reserved for him which caused controversy.

A mere vessel country dares to question his majesty's authority and secretly makes amendment with king Song which made it seem like King Song is superior to the emperor.

The emperor was angry. However instead of taking actions against King Song, he quickly told some trustable ministers to investigate and report him within two days.

Some old ministers were moved by their brotherhood.

This day fourth prince sent invitation to eldest princess song who's the most low-key and transparent person in the royal family.

In the front hall Jinyue personally welcomed her with Taehyung and jimin.

"Princess song! Welcome! Come have a seat,let's chat.ji'er go to the kitchen and let them prepare lunch, and let someone serve osmanthus cake and Jasmine tea ", jinyue ordered the eunuch beside him.

Taehyung was making flower crowns with little jungho who foolishly giggled at Taehyung's teasing.

Jinyue turned to Taehyung and pulled a handful of his hair, Taehyung yelled and glared at him.

While jimin acted like a decoration behind him.

An eunuch poured the Jasmine tea and handed it to everyone.

"Princess song, we know how much you and your mother suffered in King Song's residence. We just wantto help you", jinyue said with a kind smile.

"Why help me?", princess song narrowed her eyes.

"Ohh! You're a very honest person, we just want you to be a part of our team. So that you can support us when my eldest brother ascends the throne ", jinyue winked.

Princess Song's eyes widened, she quickly looked around to make sure no one else heard them.

"I'm thankful but helping me is not worth it, I have no value in front of my father. But I'm willing to help if I can", princess song sighed.

"With our plan you will be the most valuable in king Song's residence. You will be his savior",jinyue said with a cunning smile.

Princess song looked at him curiously.

"You must have already heard about the dispute in the court, king Song was accused of corruption. It's a serious crime. Even if the emperor doesn't suspect king Song or blame him, it will obviously prick his heart like a needle time to time", jinyue explained.

"But if you, his eldest daughter whom he always neglected comes out with a solution for him and proves him innocent, he will surely be moved. What do you think?", jinyue glanced at her with a smile.

"How?", princess song asked confused.

"What if the person who actually performed corruption is madam Song's younger brother whom she dotes on and raises in Song residence", jinyue smirked.

"That!!! He's also empress's younger brother, he can't be that greedy right?", princess song clenched her fist.

"Cousin, I know he's harassing you, don't be scared anymore.
don't you think this is the perfect time to strike? You can eliminate him at the same time win your father's favour. Madam song will no longer be able to surpass your mother", jinyue encouraged her.

Princess Song trembled with teary eyes. No one believed her when she accused madam Song's younger brother for trying to insult her.

Maybe she can finally take her revenge.
Princess Song was determined.

They discussed the solution.

She thanked him left after lunch.

"WoW! Taehyung you are soooo good at this!! Your plan really worked. Now the emperor won't arrange first prince to marry princess Hua", jinyue cheered and ran to hug jimin who laughed till his eyes disappeared.

Taehyung smiled with a smug.
