Chapter 1188: Chapter 1187: Will I Meet Him Today?

Truth!

Chu Qianli’s heart suddenly clenched tight.

Why is there a so-called "truth" emerging again?

Could it be that Imperial Decree?

She stared at Chu Jiangnan.

Chu Jiangnan’s serious expression told her that he had absolutely not lied about this matter.

"As an individual, I am very fair—I can restore your reputation, as long as Nanming can weather this disaster."

"Does the Emperor mean that the Imperial Decree that made Ziyue the Empress is fake?"

She didn’t really care for the throne, but she cared about the honor of her great-grandmother and her mother.

Her family did not rebel, did not cause the former Emperor’s death, and did not seize others’ belongings!

She had always refused to believe it!

But Chu Jiangnan’s words shattered her last illusions: "No, that Imperial Decree is real."

She was deeply shocked.

To the point that Chu Qianli did not want to speak another word.

Yet a slight smile appeared in Chu Jiangnan’s eyes: "Don’t be disappointed, your Empress throne is not stolen. You, rightfully have it."

"What exactly do you mean?" Chu Qianli’s emotions were like a roller coaster ride, the highs and lows too intense and painful.

"Once this matter is settled, if I am still alive, I will definitely tell you."

But right now, it was clear that Chu Jiangnan was running out of strength to speak.

Outside, Feng Yexuan arrived, his footsteps heavy, deliberately making his approach known and he had no intention of eavesdropping on their conversation.

Thus, their conversation had to be put on hold for now.

...Today is the day to guard the Moat.

It was something that had been planned all along.

Prince Yuxuan himself came, and Prince Li rushed to escort him.

After all, just last night it was stated that the security of the Imperial City was his full responsibility for now.

But Feng Yexuan, disguised as the Emperor, had instead ordered Prince Li to personally search the Imperial City for the poisoner.

"You moved Prince Li away because you feared he would recognize you?" Chu Qianli scoffed after getting into the carriage.

Feng Yexuan slowly glanced at her and said, "With Prince Li around, how would those people dare to provoke us?"

Chu Qianli’s lips twitched, and she looked at him askance with a bit of surprise.

It turned out, he still planned to use her as bait.

"Then why not stop Prince Yuxuan from following?"

"Prince Yuxuan is thoughtful and overly suspicious. If I prevented him from following, he would definitely suspect whether I am the real Emperor."

In fact, Prince Yuxuan’s suspicion had never ceased.

After all, many people had seen the State Preceptor poisoned and vomiting blood last night.

To act as if nothing happened afterward, it was indeed suspicious.

However, like Feng Yexuan, knowing he is a fake yet openly and righteously feeling he is real also requires extraordinary willpower.

Ordinary people might easily slip up.

Prince Yuxuan had not planned to follow to the Moat, especially since his "leg was seriously injured," making it extremely inconvenient for him to go outside.

But being a prince, it was only proper for him to see off the Emperor departing the palace.

"How is the Emperor feeling today?" Prince Yuxuan asked very respectfully through the curtain of the carriage door.

Since he was sitting in a wheelchair, his bow was just a slight lean.

Yet, Prince Yuxuan’s gaze was constantly fixed on another figure.

It was Chu Qianli, who was kneeling beside the Emperor’s legs.

Through the curtain, it was really hard to see how beautiful this lady was to have tempted the traditionally ascetic Emperor to break his vows.

But it was said, she indeed is a stunning beauty.

Yet, Prince Yuxuan had received quite a lot of information about this beauty from Chu Minghao.

"Emperor, today is the day the State Preceptor prays for the souls at the Moat. It seems... inappropriate to bring Miss Li."

Chu Qianli’s heart trembled.

The State Preceptor was also going to the Moat today? Why had no one ever mentioned it to her?
