When they returned to the capital, it was almost dusk. After Wen Ma hurriedly bid farewell to Nangong Yue, she returned to the palace.

What I saw and heard along the way was truly appalling, and Wen Ma was always on the defensive and wanted to report to the Queen as soon as possible.

When Madam Wen arrived at Fengluan Palace, the emperor happened to be there. After she bowed, she told her all the things she had seen and heard today under the sign of the emperor.

When they heard that a good Zhuangzi turned into a private kiln without the master's knowledge, the two emperors and empresses couldn't believe their ears, they just thought it was incredible.

It is said that this private kiln has been in operation for some years, and it not only keeps some charming Yangzhou thin horses, but also some handsome teenagers, which guests can choose arbitrarily. What shocked the empress even more was that many of the officials of the royal capital, as well as the children of some noble families, were regular visitors to it.

Madam Wen's head drooped lower and lower, but she still said bravely: "Your Majesty, when the old slave went today, there was only an adult with the surname Qi, accompanied by two other teenagers. In order to prevent the matter from being publicized, the concubine asked the guards to detain Mr. Qi temporarily, and is still in Bailinzhuang, waiting for the emperor's holy will to decide."

"This is the official of the imperial court that I have chosen from thousands of choices!" The emperor said with a sneer, "Okay! That's great!"

"Your Majesty, rest your anger." Seeing the Emperor's face flushing, as if blood rushed to his forehead, the Queen hurriedly asked for the pills, served the Emperor to take them with her own hands, and kept stroking his chest with her hands. , take care of him.

After a while, the emperor's tone gradually suppressed, and his tone was full of anger and said, "What's next?"

Wen Ma gave a detailed account of what happened, and finally said: "Since the first concubine can't step into such a salty place, she ordered someone to arrest the steward, but the steward dared to resist, and it was a blessing. The maiden asked the old slave to bring some guards, and then they were subdued. The princess left a housekeeper and a few guards from Zhennan Wangfu to take care of the funeral, and came back with the old servant. Now they have arrived at the Wangfu. It's over." After thinking about it carefully, she added, "The manager of Bailinzhuang didn't mention that Bailinzhuang was the eldest son, and he immediately gritted his teeth when he knew that it was the imperial concubine."

The queen glanced at the emperor and asked, "How does the princess look like?"

"Concubine Shizi faced such a thing at such a young age, her face turned pale with shock." Wen Ma said with some reluctance, "But this action is still calm and orderly, and there is no trace of it. Embarrassed."

The queen secretly praised: "This is the style of a real daughter of a noble family."

"However, Concubine Shizi was still frightened, but she said some words indiscriminately."

The emperor became curious and asked, "What did she say?"

"The Concubine Shi said, 'When the Concubine Shi was young when he took over these industries, it was natural for the Concubine to take care of one or two things on her behalf. Neither the Concubine nor I would have any objections. Concubine Mu has been working hard to take care of the industry for so many years. If she really can Looking at these Zhuangzi shops, the eldest son and I are also unfilial people, so we can give them to the concubine. But why does the concubine do this... It is also printed money, and it is a private kiln. How can a serious family do this? What happened!'" Wen Ma's memory is very good, and she repeated every word Nangong Yue said, and then said, "Shi Zifei regretted it as soon as she said it, and she didn't say anything more after that. , seems to be afraid of saying the wrong thing again."

"This girl Yue is really pitiful." The queen said with pity, "Ayi is such a good child, how can there be such a parent and stepmother? Even girl Yue has had enough of grievances."

The emperor remained silent for a long time, and after hearing the report, he waved his hand and ordered him to retire.

"emperor……"

The emperor raised his hand, interrupted the queen's words, and said, "I thought about it seriously, do you really say that Princess Zhennan opened a private kiln on the outskirts of the capital to make money?"

"What does the emperor mean?"

"Many of our officials are its regular customers..." The emperor did not finish his words, but stood up, "I went back to the front, I have to think about this matter."

The queen got up in a hurry and said respectfully, "My concubine and concubine respectfully send the emperor."

The emperor's mind was full of thoughts. Although this Princess Zhennan was a stepmother, but nominally her stepmother was also a mother. Just because of the word "filial piety", this loss could only be swallowed by Xiao Yi and his wife.

With filial piety, as long as King Zhennan is still alive, Xiao Yi will be suppressed by him for a day, even if he has a great military exploits now.

But on the other hand, Xiao Yi is the prince of Zhennan after all. If he wants to suppress Zhennan, he is undoubtedly the best candidate.

The emperor thought and groaned all the way, and when he returned to the imperial study, he already had an idea in his heart...

He ordered someone to summon Lu Huaining, the commander of Jinyiwei. That night, a team of Jinyiwei quietly left the capital and went to Bailinzhuang. Afterwards, Zhu Xing returned to the mansion under Nangong Yue's order, leaving only two secret guards to keep an eye out.

In the early morning of the second day, Wang Jing, the minister of Dali Temple, in front of the civil and military officials, loudly and forcefully stated the investigation results of the case of the private placement of Yinzi money by Xiao Yi, the prince of Zhennan, and pointed out that the impeachment of Chen Yushi was basically true. The open source pawnshop under Xiao Yi's name did release the money privately, but the mastermind behind the scenes was the Zhennan Princess Xiao Fang's!

Wang Jing angrily rebuked Princess Zhennan for being immoral and merciless, for embezzling the property of her stepson, forcing the good people to death, etc., and indicated that the witness, Shopkeeper Wang, had been taken into custody, not even just an open source pawnshop. Even many villages and fields under Xiao Shizi's name were privately occupied by Princess Zhennan.

On the Golden Palace, Wang Jingzhi did not mention the fact that the maid of the prince's wife had been to Huaiyuan County.

Hearing this impassioned rhetoric, the court was full of uproar, and the civil and military officials were dumbfounded. The emperor was furious on the spot, and ordered the queen to issue an order for 800 miles to be sent to the southern border in an expedited manner, so that Princess Zhennan would plead and if the crime was true, he would be severely punished. !

The civil and military officials looked at each other in dismay, and felt that the situation had taken a turn for the worse, which was unbelievable... I thought it was the prince of Zhennan who violated discipline and bent the law, but turned out to be a scumbag in the palace of Zhennan, which can be written into a playbook. But since this is the internal contradiction of Zhennan Palace, they just need to wait and watch the show.

The facts of the Zhennan Palace are so explosive that the discussions behind them are as boring as boiled water. Most of the officials are absent-minded, their left ear goes in and the right ear goes out. thing.

Early in the morning, it was inconvenient to discuss rashly, so when the court came, the officials began to talk one after the other:

"Isn't this Princess Zhennan too courageous?"

It is not uncommon for a stepmother to treat her stepson badly, but it is rare to do what Xiao Fang did.

Immediately, a minister objected: "I don't think it's easy to say..."

"Didn't the emperor order Princess Zhennan to plead? Maybe there will be another twist in two days." Another minister nodded in agreement.

"How else can we turn around? It's not like King Zhennan's instructions are behind it, right?" A young official disagreed.

The ministers looked at each other, and the first reaction was that it wouldn't, right?

But after thinking about it, I felt that it was not impossible. How could a woman like Xiao Fang have such a big courage and such a big appetite?

"Actually, whether King Zhennan knows it or not, he can't get rid of the relationship..." Another minister said meaningfully, "Just think about it, whether it's the unkind stepmother or the unruly son, the king of Zhennan is all about it. It's a dull face!"

Several ministers looked at each other and agreed.

This time, King Zhennan was either scolded by the emperor for his inability to teach his son, or he was left with an unstable reputation.

That is to say, in this game, whether it is the prince Xiao Yisheng in the end, or Princess Zhennan finally disentanglement, or whether there is really King Zhennan behind the scenes, King Zhennan is already destined to be the loser, and there is no such thing as a proper face. Light!

Wang Jing, the minister of Dali Temple, became the center of the crowd all of a sudden, trying to get some secrets out of his mouth, but Wang Jing was bitter in his heart. He showed his face, but who would understand that he offended the dignified prince this time! There is nothing to interfere with the housework of entering Zhennan Wangfu, Wang Jing feels that he is really unlucky, and he has to go to the Yaowang Temple to worship.

Wang Jing pretended to be secretive, so Nangong Qin, a relative of the party concerned, became the object of everyone's attention, and wanted to hear something from him...

Nangong Qin shouted haha, avoided it, and didn't care about going to the yamen, so he hurried back to the house, and was about to order someone to call Nangong Yue back to her mother's house, but she learned from the servant's mouth that she had come early in the morning and was in Nangong Mu. waiting for him in the study.

Nangong Qin couldn't help being a little surprised, but he still went to the study first.

As soon as Nangong Qin entered the study, Nangong Mu and his daughter stood up at the same time. Nangong Yue was blessed and respectfully saluted Nangong Qin.

"Yue'er doesn't need to be too polite." Nangong Qin said quickly.

After the three of them were seated, the atmosphere in the study became dignified unconsciously.

Nangong Yue was the first to speak, breaking the silence, and said, "Yue'er heard from the Empress that Yi was impeached, so I wanted to ask my uncle, did you have a decision this morning?"

Nangong Qin looked at Nangong Yue with a serious expression, told her the situation of the court, and then asked, "Yue'er, did you know about the open source pawnshop before?"

Is it just an appeal?

Nangong Yue was a little disappointed, but immediately regained her spirits.

Xiao Fang is a princess of a feudal lord after all. If the emperor does not give him a chance to plead, he will deal with it directly. I am afraid that the southern border will never swallow this breath.

It's just that Madam Qiao should have already arrived in the southern border, and most of the little Fangs have already known about Liuhezhuang. With Xiaofang's temperament, there is bound to be some action. That is the real good show!

Thinking of this, Nangong Yue felt better again, but on the face, she sighed slightly and said to Nangong Qin: "Uncle, in fact, that **** sent a maid to Huaiyuan County... "

She told Nangong Qin about Liuhezhuang and Kaiyuan Grain Shop one by one.

The words are half true and half false, only talking about Xiao Fang's involvement in Xiao Yi's industry, making Liuhezhuang and Kaiyuan grain shop messed up, as for her various layouts, natural support is not mentioned, and for Chen Yushi, she is entrusted to her. The matter of being ordered to impeach Xiao Yi was never mentioned at all.

It's all about the inner house only.

"This Princess Zhennan is really deceiving people too much!" Nangong Mu was furious when he heard it. The son-in-law is also half a son, what's more, this son-in-law is not only good to his daughter, but also filial to them. Naturally, Nangong Mu also loves him.

"People die for wealth, birds die for food, but they occupied A Yi's shop and asked A Yi to help carry the blame. It's really..." Nangong Mu is mild-mannered, and really can't say those vulgar words, but after this incident, He was worried about his daughter. With such a worry-free mother-in-law, if her daughter really followed her uncle back to southern Xinjiang, wouldn't it be easy to suffer?

Nangong Qin pondered for a while, and asked solemnly, "Yue'er, what are your plans now?"

Nangong Yue raised her eyes to look at Nangong Qin and Nangong Mu, and said calmly, "Uncle, Daddy, as you all know, A Yi was originally the proton of King Zhennan who stayed in the capital. Although he looks good in the past few years, he is still in the king's capital. Du's situation has always been very difficult... I didn't expect the princess to be inconsiderate, but she has to do such vicious things and ruin Ayi's reputation, Yue'er really can't take this breath." As she spoke, her expression gradually grew. He became awe-inspiring, "Husband honors and honors the wife, and the husband is ashamed of the wife's cheapness. Yue'er is A Yi's wife. Naturally, he can't helplessly watch his reputation Bai Ping being smeared..."

Nangong Qin nodded in agreement: "Yue'er, it's good for you to know what you have in mind. You have to remember that you are the daughter of the Nangong family. If there is anything you need to do at home, just talk to me and your father."

"Thank you uncle." Nangong Yue bowed her head, her eyes were bright and determined, and she said loudly, "Although Yue'er wished that everyone in the world would immediately know that the princess was conspiring to steal her stepson's property, and she did all kinds of things that are not allowed by the law of heaven, but Now is the time to…”

For Nangong Mansion, using the power of Shilin to get the people of the world to criticize the princess Zhennan for occupying her stepson's property and releasing her money is simple enough to make Xiao Fang's family reviled by the world. Will the emperor think that Nangong Mansion is trying to use the power of Shilin to persecute the emperor?

Nangong Qin narrowed his eyes slightly, thoughtfully.

Nangong Yue continued with bright eyes: "Since the eldest uncle also said it, the emperor has ordered the princess to plead... Even if it is to sue the official, this will give the defendant a chance to plead. So Yue'er thought that the emperor has not yet done so. Before making a formal decision, it is not appropriate to act rashly for the time being."

Nangong Mu nodded in agreement: "Yue'er, you are right. Yi is the son-in-law of our Nangong Mansion, the emperor will definitely pay attention to our Nangong Mansion's every move and see how our Nangong Mansion will act. The Emperor of Japan is about to seal the pen and seal the treasure and suspend court affairs, and we really shouldn't act rashly."

"Yes, Dad. We have to convince the emperor that Nangong Mansion will always obey the Holy Will and never mind." Nangong Yue said slowly and cautiously, "Yue'er is also worried that the uncle and father will not be worried about Yue'er. I was careful to anger Sheng Yan, so I came back here on purpose."

"Good boy, it's really hard for you to think so clearly at this time. It's really rare." Nangong Qin looked at Nangong Yue with relief, and couldn't help but feel a little regretful. It's rare that Yue'er is so smart and transparent, but she is a daughter .

Just as Nangong Yue was worried about them today, Nangong Qin was also worried that she would act impulsive because of a momentary anger, but he didn't want her to be so calm and rational at such a young age, which really shocked him.

Nangong Mu couldn't help showing a bit of pride on his face, and looked at Nangong Yue with a smile, this is his daughter!

"Yue'er," Nangong Mu said, "I still have something to tell your uncle, you should go see your mother first."

Nangong Yue got up and gave Nangong Qin and Nangong Mu another salute: "Uncle, Daddy, then Yue'er will retire first."

"You go." Nangong Qin nodded slightly.

Nangong Yue responded and left the study.

She was about to go to the second door, but saw a familiar figure standing under a sycamore tree not far away, a pair of bright eyes looking at her uncle Nangong Qin's study with a hesitant look.

It's Nangongyan!

"Second sister!" Nangong Yue hurriedly stepped up and walked towards Nangong Yan, wanting to tell her that Nangong Qin was in Nangong Mu's study now, but who would have thought that when Nangong Yan saw her, she showed panic and took two steps back. Then, turned around and ran away.

Nangongyue faintly felt that something was wrong with Nangongyan. Although their cousins ​​were not close, it was not that Nangongyan didn't even want to say hello to her.

Nangong Yue hesitated for a moment, but she saw Liu mama walking out of the second door with a smile, and stepped up to her, "Second aunt, the second madam asked the old slave to pick you up."

After a few gossips, the two walked towards Lin's Qianyunyuan together.

Lin was in the inner house, and she didn't know about Xiao Yi's impeachment. It was rare for her daughter to come back. She was very happy. sent her out.

It is already the twenty-fourth day of the twelfth lunar month. Even if there are no elders in the Zhennan Palace, and the daughter is the hostess, she has to be busy every day. Let her go back early, and she can rest for a while after she is busy.

The Queen's Yizhi was sent to Southern Xinjiang that night, and it is expected to be delivered to Princess Zhennan in the next year.

The next day, Qi Changhe, the minister of Taipu Temple, was suddenly dismissed from office, and this matter did not make any waves in the capital. On the contrary, there are some people who live a little absent-mindedly, why is that gentle township suddenly closed... What about their confidantes?

At the same time, the step-wife of the Zhennan Palace was unkind to her mother, and the matter of seizing the stepson's property was also secretly spread among the high-profile families in the royal capital. At first, the masters of the family were discussing it, and soon it was the servants. Word of mouth, and then, spread to the outside world...

As the New Year is approaching day by day, on the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, the emperor personally wrote a lot of "blessings" to give to several close princes and ministers; , to seal up the emperor's twenty-five seals and royal pen... After the complicated ceremony, the officials can finally breathe a sigh of relief, and then both the emperor and the officials can have a good New Year's Day. will reopen.

The prefectures began to be busy preparing for the Chinese New Year, and the same is true for the Zhennan Palace. On New Year’s Eve, the old and new ones were removed. The palaces were cleaned carefully, and a pair of red couplets were pasted. , The servants have also given out new clothes and rewards for the New Year, and everyone is full of energy...I look forward to the New Year's Eve dinner on the evening of the 30th New Year.

The kitchen was already in full swing, and the concubine of the prince usually ordered meals from the small kitchen and the large kitchen in the outer courtyard, so that although the cook in the large kitchen in the inner courtyard had all kinds of skills, she had nowhere to use it. Cooking the New Year's Eve dinner is the best opportunity to show your face in front of the imperial concubine.

All day, Wu Ran's family did not stop like a top, but at this time, he also saw Liu Yezheng, the rough maid in the kitchen, who was chatting with three or four people in the nest. When I got to my mouth, I heard "Princess", "Shiziye" and so on.

These three aunts and six women even dared to talk about the princess and the prince, but they had to teach them a lesson.

Wu Ran's eyebrows were tightly locked, and he quietly walked behind those people.

"Mr. Liu, this is too outrageous, isn't it a rumor?" A thin woman asked.

"Impossible." The short and fat Mrs. Liu rolled her eyes at the other party with a bit of pride in her tone, "I heard from Zhu Lao Er, who sells pork in the west of the city, that Zhu Lao Er not only provided pork to our Zhennan Wangfu, but also the royal capital. Half of the pork in the official's house is donated by their family, he said that this matter has been spread all over the powerful family in the capital!"

"Prince Concubine... it's really a 'skill'!" Liu Ye's eyes widened, and she didn't know whether it was admiration or sarcasm, "Occupying the Shiziye's shop, and privately releasing the printing money... When the Shiziye finds out, he can stop Is it?" The audacity of Shi Ziye is famous in all the kings!

"Of course I can't give up!" Madam Liu pretended to be an insider, "You think that this open source pawnshop was dug up, but what about other shops? There are so many shops in the name of the prince, if all of them are in the hands of the princess. , After so many years, how much silver should there be! How could the Shizi not care about these tens of thousands of taels of snowflake silver!" Mrs. Liu analyzed it as a matter of course.

Liu Ye swallowed his saliva and said, "Tens of thousands of taels, that should be enough for me to eat for a few lifetimes...Mother Wu!" Liu Ye finally saw Wu Ran's house standing behind him at an unknown time, and his face turned with fright. Bai, hurriedly said, "I, I'll go wash the vegetables now."

The others also scattered in a hurry, only Mrs. Liu was stopped by the Wu Ran family's voice: "Mr. Liu, what did you just say is true?"

When Mrs. Liu heard this, her eyes lit up, and she became excited again: "Mother Wu, of course it's true..." She spoke again and again, eloquently...

The rumors in the palace reached Nangong Yue early the next morning.

At this time, the sky was still bright, and today was the first day of the new year. Nangong Yue was going to enter the palace to attend the morning congratulations, so she got up early in the morning and started to wear makeup.

Queer spoke, she listened, and when she heard something interesting, she couldn't help but let out a chuckle, as if what was being discussed had nothing to do with her at all.

Insidious things have always been the easiest to spread, not to mention that this matter is related to Zhennan Wangfu, she doesn't need any action at all, it will spread naturally.

Even the Zhennan Palace is not exempt from the custom, one can imagine that this matter is probably known to everyone in the royal capital.

It seems that today's Asaka is also lively...

really--

As soon as she entered the main hall of Fengluan Palace, she saw the ladies in the hall whispering in twos and threes. When she saw her coming in, the entire hall was silent for a moment, and all eyes of inquiry, curiosity and sympathy were directed towards her.

It was this abnormal silence that made it so strange that it made the atmosphere in the hall stiff and dull.

Nangong Yue deliberately paused her steps, her lips pursed into a straight line, her brows furrowed, she made a worried look, and walked forward slowly under the guidance of the palace maid.

Only when she walked to the center of the hall, a tall and slender palace maid walked up to her, blessed her and said, "Princess Shizi, Your Highness Princess Yuncheng, please come over." She led Nangongyue to the right front, Yuncheng was on the way. A few feet away, she nodded slightly to Nangong Yue, Yuan Yuyi was standing beside Yun Cheng, looking at her worriedly.

Nangong Yue instructed the palace maid, and followed her towards Yuncheng.

After the two parties greeted each other, Yuan Yuyi immediately held Nangong Yue's hand affectionately, and asked with concern, "Yue'er, how are you these days?"

"Thank you Sister Yi for your concern." Nangong Yue thanked her body and said with a wry smile, "What's wrong with Yue'er. Anyway, I still eat and sleep... I always have to cherish myself."

"Yue'er, you're right! If you take a woman like Xiao Fang too seriously, then you will look down on her." Yun Cheng curled his lips in disdain and comforted, "Yue'er, you Don't worry. Ben Gong will definitely talk to the emperor and let him decide for you and Yi."

Probably only Yun Cheng dared to use the contemptuous title of "Xiao Fang Shi" to call Princess Zhennan in public.

The ladies around all perked up their ears, seemingly casual, but they were actually paying attention to the movements of Nangong Yue and Yun Cheng.

Nangong Yue sighed lightly, smiled reluctantly, and said, "Thank you, Your Highness. ... Yue'er now only expects Yi to be on the battlefield, so don't be distracted by it. Anyway, we are still young, and grandfather can survive in troubled times. If we save those industries, we will naturally be able to do it now in a prosperous world.”

These words made Yun Cheng feel distressed, he was so haggard at such a young age. It's all to blame for the emperor's younger brother's decision to get married so quickly. If Yue'er is assigned to her family's Bo Ge'er, she will definitely be the best mother-in-law!

Talking too much seems deliberate, so Nangong Yue simply stopped.

Everyone around her could hear her words clearly. Although her answer was somewhat ambiguous, it could still be judged that the property in the hands of the prince of Zhennan was passed down by the old prince, and now I am afraid that it has been harassed, otherwise, how would the prince and concubine mention it? In the future, re-purchase the property.

The surrounding ladies secretly felt that they were the truth.

It turned out to be the same as the rumors say! No, the facts are more bizarre than the rumors.

There is a popular saying that if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather. It is really pitiful for the prince of Zhennan. He was so humbled by his stepmother, but hindered his filial piety, so he could only swallow the loss himself.

The ladies exchanged glances one after another, and it is conceivable that after today, there will be a new version of "stepmother's biography" circulating.

Not long after, the queen ascended the throne, and everyone stood in their own positions. In the shrill voice of the waiter, they knelt three times and nine times, and completed the etiquette of the New Year's ceremony.

As in previous years, after the ceremony, the queen specially asked the palace servants to invite some female relatives to go to Dongnuan Pavilion to talk together, and Nangong Yue was naturally among the people invited. Not only her, but also Fu Yunyan, Jiang Yixi and Yuan Yuyi who were friends with her are among them.

The queen gave her a seat, and everyone accompanies them to speak, enjoying themselves.

At the same time, the emperor who had also just completed the ceremony was furious in the imperial study, and there was still a cup on the ground, which was already torn apart.

Eunuch Liu lowered his head and did not dare to let out the air, and he didn't even know why the emperor was angry.

Obviously, the emperor is still in a good mood today, and he will be happy when he comes back from the ceremony, until he receives this letter.

The emperor had already sealed the pen on New Year's Day, so most of the documents presented were for asking Anhe to pay New Year's greetings. Eunuch Liu only noticed that the document contained the seal of the Zhennan Palace. The emperor opened it casually, but after reading the book, the thunder was furious, and he smashed the cup in his hand on the ground.

"What a princess of Zhennan! What a king of Zhennan!"

The emperor sneered and threw the book on the bookcase, walking back and forth in the imperial room in anger, Eunuch Liu carefully glanced at the opened book, and was immediately shocked. In the excerpts, Nangong, the prince and concubine of the Prince of Zhennan, was reprimanded for "disobedience to his parents, because he violated his virtue; he talked a lot, because he divorced his relatives." ...

This book was first published by Xiaoxiang Academy, please do not reprint!
