"Queen Mother, Ziyun is just a weak woman, isn't it enough to interrogate one day and one night. Wei Jingyao suddenly felt a deep sense of powerlessness in his heart.

"It's just a palace maid, what can I do if I die, Rou'er killed herself, the mourning family is not as anxious as you, why, just because Ziyun is Xie Fuyao's maidservant, you are not happy. The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows slightly, her eyes full of questions.

"Can't the queen mother raise her noble hand once? At this moment, Wei Jingyao's face had long since lost his smile, and his words were as cold as arrows.

"Your Majesty, can't you enforce the law impartially once? The Queen Mother looked back coldly, and her aura did not fall behind.

Seeing that the mother and son had a dispute, Jade heard that she couldn't stand by anymore, "Queen Mother, Your Majesty, you can eat!"

"Don't eat it, Erchen still hasn't finished dealing with it, so I'll kneel down first. Wei Jingyao flicked his sleeves and turned away angrily.

Jade was shocked by Wei Jingyao's attitude, he rarely had such a composing time, "Queen Mother......"

"Let him go, this child has really been planted in the hands of that woman. The Queen Mother sighed, looking at the table full of food, she had long lost her appetite.

"Queen Mother, in fact, the emperor is quite similar to you, and if you recognize one, you will never change. Jade said softly.

"The mourning family hopes that he can be more like his father, a cold-blooded and ruthless emperor. The Queen Mother shook her head, it is not necessarily a good thing for an emperor to have affection.

"If the emperor is really like this, I'm afraid the queen mother won't be really happy, in fact, it's not bad for young people to have someone they like. Jade quipped.

"If Xie Fuyao is a good stubble, the mourning family will not say anything, but he is not worried. ”

The Queen Mother is not against Wei Jingyao having a favorite person, but she just doesn't like Xie Fuyao, this woman has too many things in her eyes, and she is destined not to treat the emperor wholeheartedly.

"Queen Mother, do you remember, the old man also said the same thing about Xu Gongzi back then. Jade said something she shouldn't have said.

The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment, and her thoughts returned to that day, and the blue figure seemed to appear in front of her again.

At that time, his father looked down on him, and when he could only play the piano and write, he forcibly separated himself from him.

"No matter how clearly we can see, they are outsiders after all, whether it is their own business or their own decision. It was rare for Jade to say a few more words from her heart.

"You, you think the mourning family can't hear it, you are talking to that kid openly and secretly. The Queen Mother scolded with a smile.

"The Queen Mother Mingjian, it's the slave who talks a lot. Jade slapped her cheek jokingly, these past events should not be mentioned again, she was really presumptuous today.

"Actually, there is a saying that the emperor said well, if Xie Fuyao is really that unbearable person, I am afraid that he will not get the emperor's favor, our emperor is not confused. ”

This sentence has reached the heart of the Queen Mother, what is the difference between her opinion of Xie Fuyao and her father's opinion of Xu Gongzi back then, she doesn't want her son to bear the tragedy of the year.

"That's it, pass the word to the people of the Shen Criminal Division, and let them not go too far with that palace maid named Ziyun. ”

The Queen Mother finally relented, that palace maid had endured so much torture and her face did not change, could she really wronged Xie Fuyao.

Yong'an Palace.

Looking at the emperor's angry look, all the people in Yong'an Palace were silent, and they didn't dare to come out, for fear that something wrong would cause the emperor to be angry.

"Xuanyi, let the secret guard monitor the movements of every concubine in the harem, and report to me immediately if there is news. Wei Jingyao's face sank like water, and his eyes were cold.

"Yes, Your Majesty. Xuanyi had been protecting Wei Jingyao in the dark, and when he heard his summons, he quickly appeared and knelt on the ground.

Wei Jingyao waved his hand, and he was the only one left in the entire empty hall, and the great loneliness and boredom continued to erode his mind.

Without clues, you can only look for a needle in a haystack like this, and maybe there will be some unexpected discoveries.

The matter in the court has not been resolved, and he can't be so impetuous, Wei Jingyao tried to convince himself and checked Hua Zaidao's case file.

The imperial examination has achieved remarkable results, and Wei Jingyao has eliminated those who are related to Wei Zheng little by little, and replaced them with poor people who are only loyal to him.

Only the Hua family, Wei Jingyao has never had a way, and it is impossible for him to let him go easily for corruption alone, not to mention that he dares to collaborate with the enemy and commit treason.

Turning the pages of the case file, Wei Jingyao's gaze stayed on the gold theft case.

At that time, I was still young, and I only had a general impression of this incident, and I did not know the whole picture.

At that time, Hua Zaidao was not a master, but a household secretary, and during his tenure, there was a shocking event.

The hundreds of thousands of taels of gold used to relieve the drought in the north disappeared, which caused a huge sensation in the entire Jiang country.

The first emperor suspected that this matter was related to Hua Zaidao, so he sent someone to investigate the matter, and after the investigation of the Qin Cha of the Criminal Department, he arrested Fang Hang, who was good friends with Hua Zaidao.

However, Fang Hang's identity is special, he is a well-known figure in the southern literary circle, and his reputation is very good.

Fang Hang's attitude was arrogant, not only did he not explain the truth of the matter, but he also threatened the Qin Cha of the Criminal Department, if he didn't give him an explanation, the matter would not be over.

In a fit of rage, the criminal department violated the will of the first emperor, and Fang Hang tortured him to try to get a result of the interrogation, but he didn't expect that Fang Hang would commit suicide in prison.

This incident completely aroused the anger of the literati in Jiangnan, and the scene was out of control for a while.

Unable to withstand the pressure of public opinion, the first emperor finally restored Fang Hang's innocence and sent the criminal department to prison and exile.

After that, no one touched this hot yam for me again, and the matter was over.

The first emperor sent people to check all the money houses, but there was no trace of the hundreds of thousands of taels of gold.

He could only find an excuse to ask Hua Zaidao to be transferred out of the household department and let him manage the academy.

Unexpectedly, he was a blessing in disguise, trained many protégés, and became prosperous, and finally became a prince.

Although he is low-key and simple on the surface, after Wei Jingyao's spying these days, he knows that he is not as clean as he seems.

Hua Zaidao is cunning and cautious, and he does things without leaving traces, and many clues have been broken before they can find him, and it is difficult to catch him.

Just like this gold theft case, it's a pity that his father, like himself, can suspect him, but he can't catch him.

So Wei Jingyao wants to start with the previous case file, and now he doesn't leak, it doesn't mean that he was so beautiful when he was young, there must be loopholes in this case.

The gold didn't go through the bank, what did he do with it, the road from Fuzhou to the capital is not close, how can he turn the money into his own?
