Chapter 568: The Mastermind Revealed!!

During this time, the three of them had been trying to please Dugu Xiao, but it all turned out to be a joke in the end!
The three major family heads immediately didn’t dare to speak
Jing Zhen took the opportunity to ask. “So, all of you still don’t agree to make
Jingjing the Crown Princess? What should we do? If you don’t agree, what if Mr. Dugu refuses to cooperate with Country A? After all, many countries want to have connections with the Dark Web Organization!”
The three major family heads. “!!”
They looked at each other and finally had to lower their heads. In the face of absolute power, they could only submit!
Just like that, after a meal at the banquet, Shen Ruojing was directly established as the Crown Princess.
Shen Ruojing was the leader of the Dark Web Organization, and Dugu Xiao was just working for her. With this fact, the three major families no longer had the right to object. Not only that, but Shen Qianhui also directly became the Queen.
At the coronation ceremony, Jing Zhen announced the news publicly and crowned Shen Ruojing!
Due to health reasons, Shen Qianhui did not attend, but the Queen’s gown and crown were sent to her palace.
The journey of Country A’s royal family finally came to an end.
In the entire palace, the older generation of imperial concubines had been executed by the Queen Dowager. Likewise, the current generation of Princess Consorts either died or was sent away, leaving no threats behind.
With her parents living peacefully here, Shen Ruojing, who had become the Crown Princess, could finally return to China!
She opened WeChat and continued to look at her phone. She noticed that every time she sent a message to Chu Cichen, he would only reply after a long time, saying that he was busy without explaining what he was busy with.
Shen Ruojing sent another message to Chu Cichen. [I’m coming back soon.]
This time, Chu Cichen replied quickly. [When?]
Shen Ruojing lowered her gaze. [In a day or two, I still have one last issue to deal with.]
Chu Cichen asked. [What’s the matter?]
Shen Ruojing. [I need to find out what’s going on with Song Chen.]
This time, Chu Cichen did not reply.
Shen Ruojing knew that Chu Cichen had always been bothered by Song Chen’s presence.
In fact, she herself was bothered. Having a man who looked like her boyfriend and not being able to tell them apart was truly frustrating.
Even identical twins would be distinguishable.
Chu Cichen did not reply to her message, so she threw her phone aside and left the room.
Outside the door, she saw Ji WUY0U.
Shen Ruojing looked around and asked, “Where is Song Chen?”
Recently, Song Chen had been by her side all the time, and she had gotten used
to it.
She suddenly felt empty in her heart for a moment when she didn’t see him.
Shen Ruojing suddenly realized that during this time, even when Chu Cichen didn’t reply to her messages, she didn’t feel bothered by it.
(Oh no!)
She was originally very clear that she only liked Chu Cichen, but now she suddenly felt fickle!
Thinking of this, Shen Ruojing felt guilty for a moment.
She then heard Ji Wuyou speak. “He was called away by His Majesty the King.”
Shen Ruojing frowned suddenly and asked, “Called away by His Majesty the King? Do you know what it’s about?”
Ji Wuyou’s face suddenly turned red.
He hesitated, not daring to speak. But knowing that he couldn’t remain silent, he coughed and said, “Recently, His Majesty the King has been selecting consorts for you. I guess it’s about that.”
Shen Ruojing clenched her jaw.
She furrowed her brows. After that, seeing Ji WUyoU’s expression, she immediately asked, “Were you called as well?”
Ji Wuyou’s face turned even redder. “1 know I am not worthy of the Princess, so I dare not even dream of it! When His Majesty the King asked me, I expressed that I am not a match for the Princess. ‘
Shen Ruojing twitched the corners of her mouth but didn’t care about it.
She just changed the subject and asked, “Where is Jing Zhen?”
“In the pavilion in the back garden.”
Shen Ruojing then walked briskly toward the back garden. But when she arrived, she found that there was no one in the pavilion.
Shen Ruojing suddenly felt anxious.
She immediately grabbed a servant who was cleaning the back garden and asked directly, ‘Where is His Majesty the King?”
The servant was startled but obediently replied, “His Majesty the King has gone to the Queen’s palace.’
Shen Qianhui had become the Queen, but she hadn’t moved into the palace designated for the Queen. She still lived with Jing Zhen, and their palace had become the residence of the King and Queen. The rest of the harem’s palaces were abandoned.
Because of this, the number of people in the palace also greatly decreased.
The Queen Dowager lived alone. After Jing Zhen returned to the country, she handed over the affairs of the previous dynasty to him.
Jing Zhen had grown up in the royal family and was skilled at handling these matters, making him trustworthy.
Shen Ruojing then strode into Shen Qianhui’s room.
It had been seven days since Shen Qianhui had a miscarriage, and her recovery was almost complete. However, Shen Ruojing insisted that she continued her confinement for another half a month before going out.
Jing Zhen was having porridge with Shen Qianhui when he saw Shen Ruojing. Shen Qianhui said, “Jingjing, you’re here? Would you like to have some porridge together?’
Shen Ruojing immediately replied, “No need.”
Her face was pale as she stared at Jing Zhen. “Come with me.”
Seeing her expression, Shen Qianhui became worried and looked at Jing Zhen, asking, “Did you do something to upset Jingjing?”
Jing Zhen scratched his head, his eyes full of appeasement. “I don’t think so.
Don’t worry, I’ll be back soon.”
Shen Qianhui could only nod, but she appeared worried.
Shen Ruojing waited in the courtyard for a while before seeing Jing Zhen come out. She then immediately pulled him to a nearby silent spot, making sure that no one was around in the open space. After that, she asked, ‘Where is Song Chen?”
Jing Zhen was stunned. “How would I know where Song Chen is? Jingjing, hasn’t he always been with you? Are you feeling feverish?”
He then tried to touch Shen Ruojing’s forehead.
But Shen Ruojing suddenly stepped back. “Father, I know everything.”
Jing Zhen’s steps halted instantly. ‘What do you know?”
Shen Ruojing stared into his eyes and said, “1 know you schemed against me. You had Song Chen impersonate Chu Cichen and ordered him to approach me for surrogacy. I know everything!”
Jing Zhen hesitated for a moment.
Shen Ruojing laughed. “I found out that the people who wanted to assassinate Song Chen were Country A’s death soldiers, and only someone from the royal family can mobilize them. The Queen Dowager wants a grandson, not a great-grandson, so if she knew our whereabouts, she would definitely send someone to find you for the child, not me. But other than the Queen Dowager, there’s only you.”
Jing Zhen licked his lips and sighed quietly. “So you found out.”
Shen Ruojing’s face turned pale.. “Father, I just want to ask you, why? Why did you do this?”
