Time passed little by little, and in the blink of an eye, in September, the Southern Song Dynasty attacked the Northern Wei Dynasty Slippery Stage, and Tuoba Tao drove the expedition in person, leaving the prince to supervise the government.

In the matter, Qiu Ni Daosheng and Shilang Ren Pingcheng served in the East Palace, and they were very trusted by Tuoba Huang, so they held a lot of power.

Suddenly, one day, the two invited the prince together and said that they had important matters to discuss.

The prince invited the two to meet at the East Palace.

"Your Highness, look!" Ren Pingcheng handed over an account book and a stack of letters.

Tuoba Huang casually flipped through a few pages of the account book, frightened, he found that what was recorded on it was actually the account of the stolen money between Zong Ai and others, and he quickly opened a few letters, which were densely filled with words, and between the lines were Zong Ai's orders to instruct others to frame Zhongliang, and so on.

Tuoba Huang hurriedly asked, "Where did you get it from?"

"We ...... Let's ......" Ren Pingcheng hesitated, with a hint of evil smile on his face, embarrassed to speak.

"We sent someone to tie up Zongai's housekeeper and daughter-in-law, and asked him to take things and replace them." Qiu Ni Daosheng did not feel that this matter damaged his reputation, and only thought that the soldiers were not tired of deceit.

"This love is so secret that you two can dig it out, you two really have the means!" Tuoba Huang not only did not accuse, but praised again and again.

Tuoba Huang is shrewd in politics and has subtle insights, coupled with his natural dislike of treacherous villains like Zong Ai, and now he has a lot of evidence in his hands that Zong Ai used power for personal gain, framed Zhongliang, bent the law for bribes, and killed people and goods, of course, he decided to wait for Tuoba Tao to return to the palace and report it in one fell swoop.

It's just that the three of them talked secretly, but they didn't take all precautions, and the news was listened to by the attendants arranged by Zong Ai to monitor Tuoba Huang in the East Palace. Then, the waiter relayed the news to Zong Ai.

Zong Ai was always worried that Tuoba Huang would leak his secrets to Tuoba Tao, so he orchestrated a conspiracy.

……

Tuoba Tao returned from the southern expedition, and Zong Ai couldn't wait to enter the hall to ask for a meeting.

"Zong Aiqing, what's the matter, I don't want to wait for me to rest for a while?" Tuoba Tao asked Qi Daode to take off his armor for himself while asking Zong Ai.

"Your Majesty, the matter is important, and the minister can only risk death to admonish! Surprise Your Majesty, please forgive Your Majesty! "Zong Ai's lips are upside down.

"That's it! Whatever is the matter with you, tell me! Tuoba Tao was tired and wanted to rest a little earlier.

"Your Majesty, look!" Zong Ai held up a piece of music with both hands and presented it to Tuoba Tao.

Tuoba Tao read the folds while listening to Zong Ai's report.

This records the various crimes of Qiu Ni Daosheng and Ren Pingcheng, the squire Ren Pingcheng, who instigated the prince to seek personal interests and pervert the law for bribes, and the evidence is conclusive. Because it involved His Royal Highness the Prince, the minister did not dare to report directly to His Royal Highness the Prince, and waited for His Majesty to come back to the Holy Judgment. "Zong loves the thief and shouts to catch the thief.

"Humph! These two people are simply bold! How dare you bewitch the prince to do such a thing that violates heavenly principles! Tuoba Tao didn't expect that such a ridiculous thing would happen after he had been gone for many days.

"And that's not all! The two of them also forged evidence of the crime of the court's loyalty, planning to use the prince to sue the royal court, and take the opportunity to exclude dissidents! Your Majesty ...... "Zongai's words are conclusive and cannot be broken.

"I will not let them succeed! You quickly send someone to arrest them first and send them to prison! Pick a day to behold! Seeing that Tuoba Tao had been deceived, Zong Ai was proud in his heart, and after receiving the order, he went to arrest someone.

Qiu Ni Daosheng and Ren Pingcheng were imprisoned, but they were anxious for the prince Tuoba Huang, but he didn't expect that he had not yet overthrown Zongai, but he had been framed by a traitor, and he was depressed in his heart.

Tuoba Huang entered the hall to intercede for the two, but they were both rejected by Tuoba Tao. Soon, he heard that the two had been beheaded by Zong Ai to show the public, Tuoba Huang was angry, his liver qi was stagnant, and his blood was reversed with his qi, and he immediately spit blood in his mouth, and then he lay down in bed and couldn't afford to be sick for a long time. Except for the imperial doctor who recuperated and cured the disease, the people who came and went were no longer seen, and even the teacher Gao Yun came to visit, but he was politely declined.

Once a prince, he became a "widow".

After a few months, the Spring Festival is coming in a blink of an eye.

The palace is full of lights, so lively.

The people of Changqiu Palace got up early in the morning on Chinese New Year's Eve, pasted the window flowers upside down and upside down, cleaned the inside and outside of the hall spotlessly, and then placed an auspicious and finely carved wooden chicken in front of the door. As soon as the maids in the mood for love were busy, they all put on new clothes and changed their hair buns one by one, waiting to be touched by the joy of spring, looking for the master to ask for good luck and receive money.

At night, the whole palace is brightly lit, and you can't sleep all night, just waiting for the arrival of the first day of the new year.

On the first day of the first month of the first month of each year, Tuoba Tao will feast on the ministers, and the officials will offer congratulatory gifts, and then take a break from government for a month, and this year is no exception.

In the early morning of the first day of the first lunar month, Tuoba Tao was convenient for the West Palace to entertain the ministers.

After a song and dance, Tuoba Tao received a congratulatory gift from a hundred officials. Or there are rare night pearls, or there are ancient literati's ink treasures, or there are exotic treasures, a dazzling array of everything. Tuoba Tao was overjoyed in his heart, Feng Zongai was named the Duke of Qinjun, Tuoba Han was renamed the King of Dongping, and You Ya was promoted to the head of the East Palace......

This year, the happiest person is Tuoba Jun. Taking advantage of Tuoba Tao's banquet to invite the ministers, he didn't have time to take care of himself, so Tuoba Tao rushed to the Changqiu Palace.

"Qing'er! Qing'er! Look what I've got for you! Tuoba Mian yelled as he entered the door with something.

Feng Qingru walked out of the inner room unhurriedly.

"Look!" Tuoba Jun only raised his hand high.

A round, fluffy, snow-white, slightly narrowed-eyed cat was curled up in Tuoba Jun's arms.

"Wow! What a cute kitten! Where did you get that? Feng Qingru called out in surprise, and hurriedly hugged him, caressing him infinitely.

"Me! I got it from a messenger from the Western Regions! He said, it's a Persian cat! Tuoba raised his eyebrows, patted his chest, and said proudly.

"Persian cat! What a cute name! Then let's call it 'Xiao Si' in the future, okay? Feng Qingru's eyes flashed with a dazzling light.

"Good! Good! Anyway, it's for you, you can call it whatever you want! Tuoba Jun looks like a man who does what he says.

"I've seen my brother!" Before the two could react, one interjected.

"Little Xincheng! There you are! Look at it, this is the Persian cat that Brother Jun gave me, is it cute? I named it 'Xiao Si'! Does it sound good? Feng Qingru dangled in front of Xiao Xincheng with the cat in his arms. Xiao Xincheng looked at Feng Qingru's smile like a flower, and there were ripples in his heart, and he only nodded 'um' and 'um', and blushed shyly.

"Qing'er! Giving gifts to each other during the New Year is an old rule! I've got you covered! Do you have anything in store for me! Tuoba Jun has always been thinking about getting the gift back.
