"Is everything written here true?" The queen tried her best to look calm.

King Rong nodded, "My son asked in person, but they still didn't admit it. So I arrested my uncle and the boy next to my cousin and interrogated them one by one, and that's when I asked."

Queen:......

She simply couldn't believe that this was what her son would do. She was so shocked that the queen fell silent.

King Rong looked at the expression on his mother's face and sneered, "You didn't expect it, did you? I didn't expect it either. Who would have thought that Shu Xuebo's marriage to Xu Yurong was a trap. These two people are a perfect match for each other."

The Queen finally came to her senses at this moment, "So when Qiongsi was about to jump off the building in Biyang Palace, it was Xu Yurong who did it?"

"Yes, the sandbox she gave to her cousin was tampered with. Drugs that can cause hallucinations were added to it, and Xu Yurong deliberately induced her with words, so she was fooled." Rong Wang was so angry that he calmed down. "Later she went crazy and became evil, but she was also harmed by Xu Yurong and Shu Xuebo, who added something to her food. This kind of thing was brought by Yuangang. They didn't know how to solve it. They only knew that this medicine could The person was not very clear for a month, but he slowly recovered after a month.”

The queen looked at her son, "I can think of a reason why Xu Yurong wanted to kill Jones, but why did your cousin do this?"

King Rong looked at his mother and concubine, "According to Shu Xuebo, it was because he was jealous that his cousin was loved and protected by his mother, but as a nephew, he was left out in the cold, and even the honorary mother of the Shu family refused to guard it for them, so he felt resentful. ”

The queen's face was green and white, and she opened her mouth but could not speak.

King Rong looked at his mother, he stood up and said: "I will report this matter to my father truthfully. It is up to my father to decide how to deal with the Shu family."

"Wait a minute." The queen stopped her son, "How much involvement did your uncle and cousin have in what Yuangang did?"

The queen had heard a little bit about the Daling Temple case, but she didn't know much about it. However, she also knew that many women had been victimized because of this fuji, and it was also a major case in the capital.

"According to their confession, they only bought things from Yuangang, but my son knew that it must be more than that. Their followers also confessed that they did help Yuangang do a lot of things to make profits. You know what the fuji used, they sold How much did you get out? Do you know how much money you made just because of this?”

The queen looked at her son's bad look and didn't dare to ask, but she knew it would be necessary.

King Rong looked at his mother with a somewhat depressed expression, "I know I am not very up to date myself, but at least I do not harm the people or seek undue benefits. My father has always been strict in governing the country. Needless to say, you will also know that after my father knows How angry."

The queen looked at her son tentatively, "You found out about this yourself, so you can't hide it?"

"Who do you think is a fool? My father could revoke the Shu family's title without hesitation back then. Do you think that only your son can find out about this kind of thing?"

When the Queen heard this, she immediately gritted her teeth and said, "You are right, the Crown Prince is supervising this case, and he will definitely not miss this good opportunity. I can't take risks for the sake of the Shu family, and I can't drag you into this."

King Rong was speechless after hearing his mother's words. No matter what happened, his mother could always involve his eldest brother. It's no wonder that his eldest brother had a headache about this case.

"Brother didn't investigate further, but told me the matter. Doesn't this save us face?"

The queen almost exploded when she heard this, and looked at her son, "I'm just telling you how you went to find out your uncle and cousin so well, it turned out to be the prince!"

"If I don't investigate, my eldest brother will find out sooner or later. Then I might as well find out and hand it over to my father. We, mother and son, still have some dignity. This is eldest brother's kindness."

"You idiot, you didn't even know you were being taken advantage of. How can the prince be so kind? You don't even think about why he is looking for you!"

King Rong really couldn't communicate with her mother and ran away angrily.

The queen was so angry that her brain ached, and said to Aunt Zhao: "Look, look, he jumps down after just a few words. I'm so angry."

Aunt Zhao didn't dare to say anything else, so she could only comfort her: "Your Majesty, maybe the prince is right. This matter involves the Shu family, and His Highness the Crown Prince is afraid of you. It's really hard to take action to avoid getting a mean reputation." . His Highness the Crown Prince told the matter to the Prince. Even if His Royal Highness has selfish motives, it will indeed make things better for the Queen and the Prince. Don’t be angry. Your health is important. "

The queen became even more angry when she heard this, "How could the weasel be so kind as he wished the rooster New Year's greetings? He didn't have to take action in the Shu family, he just said a few words to Jing Xing, and Jing Xing stupidly did it for him, and in the end all the benefits were given to him. Come on, who is the unlucky one? It’s the Shu family!”

The more the queen talked, the angrier she became. Not only did she feel depressed but her head ached. The prince was so scheming, and her stupid son still treated people as saints. She was really angry.

King Rong put the things directly towards his father, knelt down and apologized, and didn't say much else.

Hu Siyi presented the things to His Majesty, and the Emperor looked through them. There was no emotion or anger on his face. He only looked at King Rong and asked, "Did you check it yourself?"

King Rong nodded in embarrassment, "Father, didn't you ask knowingly? How could you not know what your son is doing?"

The emperor smiled and said, "It's hard to say."

King Rong drooped his head, "Anyway, I have tried and questioned, and that is what happened. You can handle it as you see fit. My mother and I have no complaints."

The emperor put the things on the table and looked at his son, "There is one thing you didn't find out clearly. Why did Xu Yurong agree to marry you Shu Xuebo in the first place? Since the marriage between the two of them was fake, what was the reason for it?"

"My son has asked." King Rong raised his head, "Xu Yurong said that because the Yongan County Lord fell into the water, her reputation was damaged. She was complained and ostracized by her family at home, and she could not be said to be a good person outside. So Shu Xuebo was originally After planning on her falling into the water, she negotiated terms with him. The two of them got what they wanted and agreed to divorce after three years of marriage. Xu Yurong wanted to leave her natal family, and Shu Xuebo wanted a decent marriage, so that was it. thing."

The emperor looked at his son after hearing this, "Do you believe it?"

King Rong nodded when he heard his father's words, "Other than that, I can't think of any other reasons."

"You go back first, I will think about it carefully." The emperor waved his hand and sent his son away.

King Rong wanted to say something else. Seeing that his father's face was not very good, he didn't dare to open his mouth. Anyway, he had tried his best. He still had to go to Guangping County Prince's Mansion. As long as he thought about his aunt and cousin, his head It hurts even more.

After King Rong left, the emperor looked at Hu Siyi without raising his head and said, "Send these things to the prince."

"Yes." Hu Siyi didn't dare to ask any more questions and immediately stepped forward to put it away. Then he bent down and walked out, going to the East Palace in person.

Yan Junchu looked at what Hu Siyi had brought, threw it on the table casually, and sat there upright, with the expression on his face still calm.

Yang Jin couldn't hold it back anymore, looked at His Highness and asked: "Your Highness, what do you think His Majesty will do?"

Yan Junchu chuckled, "If I want to recover from my injuries, I will naturally not interfere in these matters. It all depends on my father's will."

Yang Jin asked Lonely, and he knew how he could get words out of His Highness's mouth with his ability.

"What should we do over there in Yuangang?" Yang Jin said with a headache.

Yan Junchu didn't answer the question. He looked at Yang Jin and asked, "Has everything been arranged over Wu Shun?"

Speaking of this, Yang Jin immediately replied: "It has been arranged and he can be sent to Miss Sixth as an errand at any time."

"Then send it over." Yan Junchu lowered his head and opened a book and read slowly.

Yang Jin didn't dare to talk anymore and hurried out. Wu Shun had been waiting for a long time. When he saw Yang Jin coming out, he went up to greet him, "Master Yang."

Yang Jin looked at him, patted his shoulder and said, "From now on, you will work as an errand for the Lord of Yong'an County. Are you willing?"

Wu Shun immediately said: "The lives of my subordinates were saved by the county master, so naturally they are willing to serve the county master."

Yang Jin smiled and said, "Do your job well and you will come back sooner or later."

Wu Shun was happy, but no, the day the county lord married His Highness was the day he came back. But when he came back, as long as the county lord didn't chase him away, he would continue to work for the county lord.

Wu Shun left happily. Yang Jin looked at his back and was very satisfied. He was a grateful person.

Wu Shun went to Qi Guogong's Mansion but did not see the county lord, so he rushed to Xiaoming Lake.

Su Xinyi and his brothers were finally able to successfully row on the lake. Now they can barely row from one side of the lake to the other. The number of times their boat has capsized can only be counted.

Su Xinyi was surprised to see Wu Shun. She asked the prince last time, but she didn't expect him to arrive so soon.

Wu Shun came forward to greet him, and Su Xinyi explained Wu Shun's origin to a group of brothers.

Everyone:...

Su Yi was more familiar with Wu Shun. She looked at him and said with a smile, "It's good to come back. From now on, if you follow Sixth Sister and do your best, the house will not treat you badly."

Wu Shun immediately said: "Every life of my subordinates was saved by the county lord, so they will naturally obey the county lord's instructions. The prince can rest assured."

Su Xinyi looked at Wu Shun now. He was completely different from the venomous one before. It seemed that His Highness the Crown Prince really knew how to train people.

Su Xinyi looked at Wu Shun and said, "How is your niece now?"

Wu Shun smiled and said, "After Prince Dongli's palace was demoted to the uncle's palace, I originally thought of taking her out. Her mother was gone, and a little girl was afraid that she would be wronged and uncomfortable. But Mrs. Uncle didn't agree. She said If Jiang Yi follows me, her future marriage may be difficult. If she stays in the house, she can stay with her sister-in-law. I asked the child if she would stay, so I let her. "

Su Xinyi glanced at Wu Shun, but she didn't expect that he was interested in raising his niece. She was a loyal person, so she said to him: "Mrs. Dongli Botai is much gentler now. When Aunt Wu was innocently killed, she wouldn't do it." It’s to embarrass Jiang Yi. Besides, if you stayed in the East Palace and didn’t look at the monk’s face or the Buddha’s face, Mrs. Jiang would not let Jiang Yi suffer.”

Wu Shun's anger has become much less violent now. Hearing what the county leader said, he nodded, "My subordinates think so too."

Su Yi said from the side: "After arriving at our house, from now on, as the bodyguard of Sixth Sister, you can also go to the uncle's house to visit your niece. Besides, Sixth Sister's wife Mrs. Jiang is kind. Considering this, she will not It will make your niece look good."

Wu Shun quickly responded, he thought so too.

The group of people marched back to the uncle's house. Su Xinyi handed Wu Shun to Zhan Qiao to make arrangements, and then went to rest and wash up.

As soon as they finished cleaning up, the fourth lady came over. Su Xinyi hurriedly greeted her, "Mom."

The Fourth Madam patted her daughter's hand, "Are you tired? You're already tanned."

Su Xinyi said cheerfully: "It's okay. I'll cover it up for two days after the Dragon Boat Festival and it will be white. Are you here for something?"

"I have two things to tell you. The first is that your eldest sister has replied to the letter and wants your eldest aunt to accompany her during the birthing. Your eldest aunt is going to leave in a few days. The mansion will see her off then."

Su Xinyi nodded, "My eldest sister is alone there, so it's good for your eldest aunt to go there to accompany her. It's reassuring to have family around. What about the second thing?"

"A group of young masters in our mansion are going to participate in the dragon boat race and can't send your eldest aunt south, so your second sister sent someone to send a letter saying that your second brother-in-law is willing to go there."

Su Xinyi was very surprised, "Second brother-in-law?"

"That's right, but your grandfather didn't agree, your second sister Although the husband is good, it will take at least a month to go back and forth. If your eldest aunt waits for your eldest sister to give birth and stays for a while before coming back, it will take even longer, so let your second uncle and second aunt go and decline this matter. "

"Who will send the eldest aunt south?" Su Xinyi felt that this matter was indeed not easy to handle, "My eldest brother has an errand on his shoulders, so he definitely can't go. It takes too long. Otherwise, let the second brother go. It doesn't matter if the second brother is missing. Anyway, we don't plan to win the championship."

This year, it is probably hanging. They practiced too late, and it is a good thing to be able to participate. Su Xinyi is very open-minded.

"Your aunt asked her nephew to go with her, and the Ji family has agreed."

Su Xinyi smiled, "That's fine, it's easier to take care of my nephew on the way."

"Your grandmother means that your second sister also has good intentions this time, so she wants you brothers and sisters to invite your second sister and second brother-in-law back for a meal, which is also a way to thank them."

"That's great. Last time, the second sister wanted to come back, but the little nephew was sick and couldn't come back. It's good that everyone can meet this time." Su Xinyi said happily, "Then I'll tell my eldest brother that it's best for him to come forward."

As for the prince, his second brother-in-law will definitely be happy if he comes forward.

"Okay, let's do it this way. I'll tell your grandmother later." The fourth lady said with a smile.

Su Xinyi took a break and went to her eldest sister-in-law's place. Zeng was walking with her maid in the yard. Seeing Xinyi, she smiled and said, "Sixth sister is here, come in and sit down."

Su Xinyi walked over quickly, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I'll do it myself."

She was scared to see her eldest sister-in-law busy with her belly, so she helped her sister-in-law sit down and picked up the pot to pour tea.

Zeng liked her sixth sister very much and asked her with a smile, "You've been working hard recently, you've all got tanned."

"It's not just me who's tanned, my eldest brother is tanned too."

Zeng was also happy when she thought of her husband's face, so she asked a few questions about the dragon boat race, and then asked about Su Xinyi's purpose of coming, and Su Xinyi told her the story.

Zeng nodded quickly, "It should be, but your eldest brother just went out, and I don't know when he will be back."

"Then I won't wait for my eldest brother, and I'll tell him when he comes back." Su Xinyi said.

Zeng smiled and agreed, "If I wasn't pregnant, I should have gone with my mother this time."

"Don't take it to heart, sister-in-law. Whether it's my elder sister or my aunt, they will definitely not let you work so hard. Your health is the most important thing now. Last time, my aunt said that I should come back as soon as my elder sister gives birth, and my sister-in-law's due date will come when I come back." Su Xinyi smiled and replied.

After Zeng became pregnant, the relationship between her and her mother-in-law was much better. Now her mother-in-law treats her much better than before. Thinking about when she just married in, she is very satisfied now.

After chatting for a few more words, seeing Zeng's tired face, Su Xinyi quickly got up and said goodbye.

After leaving her elder brother's place, Su Xinyi went straight back to the yard. She had to read more books in the evening. She hadn't finished reading the books given by her grandfather. She didn't have time during the day, so she had to work harder at night.

After a few days, the mansion sent the eldest lady south first, and then Su Yi invited Su Lanxi and her husband back. It was a lively day, and a few days later, there was movement in the case of Daling Temple.

Shu's father was stripped of his official position and became an ordinary citizen. It was probably for the queen's sake that Shu's father and Shu Xuebo's lives were saved. Although their lives were saved, their property was confiscated.

Then came the news that Xu Yurong and her husband divorced. The capital was bustling with news for several days. Xu Yurong, who had just divorced, was beaten by the Princess of Guangping County.

Then, the news that Xu Yurong and the Shu family had joined forces with the expelled monk Yuan Gang from Daling Temple to use the art of spirit writing to make money was also spread. Overnight, Xu Yurong's reputation was completely stinking, and the Anding Marquis's Mansion also severed its relationship with Xu Yurong.

Because of the damage to the reputation of Monk Yuan Gang, the Daling Temple's abbot immediately distributed porridge and rice, and held several rituals to restore its reputation.

At this time, the King of Xiang and the King of Jing returned to the capital. The news that the two kings returned to the capital also suppressed the Daling Temple's affairs, allowing Daling Temple to breathe a sigh of relief.

The palace was bustling with activity because the second prince returned to Beijing, and the crown prince, who had almost recovered from his injuries, finally showed up. Outside the palace, Su Xinyi was taking a dragon boat with her brothers to Daming Lake, because the dragon boat race was held there.

Daming Lake is connected to the moat, with a wide expanse of water and blue waves. Su Xinyi looked at the dragon boats shuttling back and forth on the lake, and then looked at her brothers, and the brothers and sisters were speechless.

This time, the dragon boat race was open to the public, so there were quite a lot of participating teams.

Su Xinyi was about to go on the boat with her brothers to try it out, when she heard a familiar voice, "Su Xinyi!"

Su Xinyi frowned, looked back, and it was indeed Prince Rong!

Oh, Prince Rong also has his fleet!

Prince Rong threw down a boat of people and ran over immediately.

The Su Yi brothers came forward to greet him, and Prince Rong waved his hand, "There are not so many rules when you are out, no need to be polite, how are you practicing?"

Su Xinyi looked at Prince Rong's smug look and asked, "I heard that the two princes returned to Beijing today, why are the princes not in the palace?"

Prince Rong raised his eyebrows, "It's enough to meet each other, there's no need to worry about so much."

If there was only one Prince Jing, he would stay and give him some face, but Prince Xiang... Prince Rong was not very willing to give him this face, especially because of the Shu family's affairs this time, Concubine Li did not give his mother a lot of trouble.

"Let's compete?" Prince Rong was eager to try.

Su Xinyi ruthlessly refused, what a joke, if they competed with Prince Rong and his people now, they would probably lose.

Except for Prince Wu, the people on Prince Rong's ship were all capable generals selected from the royal family.

"Hey, Su Xinyi, you are not afraid, are you?" Prince Rong's depressed mood finally found a happy point, blocking Su Xinyi's way and smiled proudly.

Su Xinyi looked at Prince Rong, "Why dragon boat race? Let's have a race?"

Prince Rong's smile faded, "You wish."

Su Xinyi snorted.

Prince Rong rolled his eyes, looked at Su Xinyi and asked, "How about we practice together?"

"Thank you for the invitation, but it's not necessary." Su Xinyi began to ruthlessly drive people away, "Prince, we have to go to work, see you later."

Su Xinyi turned and left, and Su Yi followed with a group of confused brothers. He was used to his sister confronting Prince Rong, but he couldn't stand his brothers who had never seen it before, so he was shocked.

Their Xiaoliu is so arrogant!

Prince Rong was unhappy, looking at Su Xinyi's back and said, "Hey, I was thinking about telling you about the Daling Temple, it seems you are not interested."

Su Xinyi immediately turned around and looked at his eldest brother, "Brother, you go over and practice first, I'll come back after a few words."

Su Yi knew that he couldn't persuade him, so he stopped persuading him and walked away with his younger brothers.

Su Bei looked at his elder brother and asked, "Brother, is this okay?"

Is Xiaoliu too familiar with Prince Rong?

"It's okay. Prince Rong can't beat Xiaoliu. Xiaoliu won't suffer." Su Yi said indifferently.

Su Bei was silent. Is that what he asked?

However, after hearing his elder brother's answer, Su Bei felt that his elder brother had changed and was bolder. He even dared to tease the prince.

Su Xinyi looked at Prince Rong and looked at his expression. Seeing Prince Rong like this, it seemed that the Shu family's affairs had little impact on him.

However, the queen and Prince Rong were also embarrassed. The Shu family was able to save their lives this time, and His Majesty still saved face for them and their son.

"What are you looking at me for? Is there something wrong with my face?" Prince Rong said suspiciously, touching his face.

Su Xinyi's mouth twitched, "What happened at Daling Temple? What does the prince want to tell me?"

Prince Rong said proudly, "Guess?"

Su Xinyi:...

"I don't guess!" Su Xinyi turned and left.

"Hey, why are you getting more and more irritable? Can't you just take a joke?" Prince Rong said angrily.

Su Xinyi turned around and looked at him, "Your Highness, I'm still busy training the boat, how can I waste time."

"Okay, okay, I said it's not possible." Prince Rong leaned over and looked at Su Xinyi, "You will never imagine how much money Daling Temple spent on Yuan Gang's matter this time."

"Spend money?"

"Of course, Daling Temple can't just say that it has been expelled and that's it?"

"Can such a thing be settled with money?" Su Xinyi had little experience and saw it for the first time.

Seeing that she was not understanding, Prince Rong coughed lightly and said, "There are so many pilgrims in the temple, and they are very wealthy. My eldest brother is a man who plunders the feathers of geese passing by, let alone such a fat pig."

Su Xinyi: ...

Just ask him if he dares to let His Royal Highness know this?
