After listening to Dong Ruyi's analysis, the emperor not only did not blame, but also told the matter of letting the seventh princess marry Daxia.

The marriage between the Great Zhou and the Great Xia is related to the future friendly relations between the two countries. For a major event like this, it stands to reason that Dong Ruyi should not be hidden. After all, the situation is changing rapidly, and if Dong Ruyi didn't know about this in advance, it would inevitably affect her future plans for the southwest.

But on the matter of marriage, the emperor hesitated. He was afraid that Dong Ruyi would treat others with herself, and then think of her previous marriage with Tubo, so he opposed the marriage of the seventh princess. What's more, the seventh princess is the niece of Concubine Li, he was afraid that Dong Ruyi would be embarrassed, and he was afraid that Dong Ruyi would make a mistake in protecting his shortcomings, so he never mentioned it.

Now that he heard Dong Ruyi's statement that the sixth princess would marry far away from northern Xinjiang, he tentatively said that he wanted the seventh princess to marry.

Dong Ruyi's reaction surprised the emperor, not only did she not object, but also agreed.

The emperor sighed that Dong Ruyi began to think about Da Zhou, and listened to Dong Ruyi's praise of virtue. Dong Ruyi said that the emperor was a generation of Ming monarchs, and also said that the marriage between the seventh princess and Daxia would go down in history in the future as Zhaojun's exit.

Dong Ruyi's statement made the emperor doubly useful. The emperor, who originally had a trace of guilt, was more sure of his thoughts after listening to Dong Ruyi's words.

In this way, the marriage of the sixth princess and the seventh princess was finalized. As for the candidates for the marriage of the six princesses, it is the result of the queen's role.

The queen and Dong Ruyi, two smart people who have no contact with each other, united the front without an agreement or commitment.

As for how others think of it, at least in the eyes of onlookers such as Wang Xi and Zhang Fuhai, the sixth princess is self-inflicted, otherwise it would be the best for someone like Guangweihou.

The queen looked at Dong Ruyi, who used rice as an excuse every time she came, and couldn't help laughing. "Qiao Xi, tell the small kitchen that all today's dishes have been replaced with Ruyihou's favorite food. "Regarding the sixth princess marrying to Northern Xinjiang, the queen naturally wants to express it.

Dong Ruyi said with a smile: "Ruyi likes the food here the most, but today's dishes really can't be as good as Ruyi likes." She said and looked at Qiao Xi, "Your Highness will come over later, Aunt Qiao Xi remembers to prepare a few dishes that His Highness likes to eat." ”

The queen smiled: "You don't care about him, that is, you often think about eating with the palace." ”

Qiao Xi smiled: "The slave doesn't listen to the queen, but the little marquis." She bowed respectfully, and then retreated with the palace people in the palace.

She has an inexplicable fear of Dong Ruyi, if it weren't for the queen's mother saying that the sixth princess's family affair was mentioned by Ruyihou, she would have thought that Mrs. Dong's difficult birth was over. But the truth is far from the past.

Looking at the people involved in Mrs. Dong's difficult birth in the first place, she shuddered.

Everyone thought that Zhang Daozhen was planted in the hands of King Qing, but they who knew the truth didn't think so.

The people they had placed outside the palace earlier replied that someone had complained to Governor Zhang about looting the people's fat and ointment. At that time, don't say it was her, even the queen just smiled. They knew that this was Dong Ruyi's usual handwriting, but it was a pity that the timing was wrong. That will make the emperor sad about the death of the seven princes, and for the virtuous concubine who lost her beloved son and went crazy, the emperor will also remember the old love. Therefore, this kind of thing will not make the Zhang family hurt their bones.

But the strange thing is that the acting king did not enter the palace to face the saint because of this matter, and this matter seemed to be pressed down, and there was no sound at all.

***

Since the incident of the Shandong embankment bursting, the acting king has been extremely accommodating to the people who came to the door to seek justice. He heard that some people came to the door to complain about grievances, so he entertained them with delicious food and drink.

The one who sued the governor of Duzhou was an unknown small trader, and he brought the drawings of more than 100 people in Duzhou to the acting king. After hearing the details of the visitor, the acting king planned to bring the paper into the palace. But he couldn't bear to talk about the emperor's serious illness in the palace, and the king thought about it, but he was afraid that the emperor would be angry, so he went to King Qing.

King Qing looked at the paper, and after seeing the vendor, he began to investigate. He is not the acting king, so naturally he will not enter the palace with such a thing.

King Qing's people went to Tongzhou to confirm the trader's words, and after learning that the matter was true, King Qing asked people to find evidence. Not only did he send his own men, but he also found Wei Xiang and Dong Wende, and he needed Wei Xiang and the people of the household department to go to Tongzhou with his people.

Things went unbelievably well, and the confessions of the people and the corrupt account books were as if they had been prepared a long time ago. It was said that after more than two months of investigation, but the time spent on the road was removed, and it took almost no effort for them to find evidence.

No matter what the process is, Zhang Daozhen or falsely passed on the imperial decree, forcibly collected taxes, and caused the people to be displaced.

In this way, in the autumn when the harvest was reported in various places, all the evidence was in the hands of King Qing.

After Qiao Xi figured it out, she lost sleep for two nights. If Zhang Daozhen had collected the people's fat and ointment for three years, why didn't those people sue earlier? If someone had sued in the morning, His Majesty would have sentenced Zhang Daozhen to a prison sentence at most, for the sake of Concubine Xian and the Seventh Prince. Even after this juncture, the emperor thought of the virtuous concubine who lost her beloved son and went crazy, at most he cut Zhang Daozhen alone.

However, it happened that when the emperor was happy with a bumper harvest and wanted to amnesty the world, King Qing and Wei Lian jointly denounced it with more than 20 officials. It can be said that Zhang Daozhen, together with his Zhang family, will definitely die this time.

Dong Ruyi calculated the acting king and the king of Qing, not only did she calculate that the acting king would not enter the palace directly, but also calculated that the king of Qing would definitely find evidence first. Thinking about this, Qiao Xi felt a chill in her heart.

Concubine Xian, the culprit, was finished with her family, and Concubine De, who almost became an accomplice to Mrs. Dong's difficult birth due to improper arrangements for a while, not only had an extra handle to harm the Seventh Prince, but even her daughter wanted to become the first amicable princess of the Great Zhou.

She thought that this was the end of the matter, and it was completely over. But she learned from the queen yesterday that the sixth princess's marriage to Northern Xinjiang was also facilitated by Dong Ruyi.

After hearing the news, her whole person was not good. She didn't think that Dong Ruyi would even clean up the concubine who sat on the mountain and watched the tiger fight, and didn't help or fall into the well.

What a revenge will be avenged, the family that harms the person is ruined, the person who almost harms the person, not to mention the commotion, even the daughter has to marry far away, and even the one who looks by coldly is punished. If it weren't for the prince, she would have tried to persuade the queen to hide as far as she wanted, and she would be afraid to be in the company of such a person.

However, after so many incidents, the culprit who dominated all this was like no one else laughing and talking with the queen mother in Kunning Palace about noon food.
