Because of Li Jing's matter, the queen was afraid that Meng Qiqi would be too frightened, so she returned to the palace early.

After hiding in the house for a few days, when he saw Yan Fei again, Meng Qiqi saw that his face was still a little pale, and a trace of worry rose in his heart.

"Why are you so weak! His face is as white as paper! ”

"Well, it's mainly heart disease." Yan Fei looked at Meng Qiqi with a smile in her eyes.

The corners of Meng Qiqi's mouth twitched. This man really doesn't know what blushing is......

After returning to the palace, because of Li Jing's improper behavior in the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple, he was originally rewarded for his merits and deeds because of the suppression of bandits, but the emperor said that Li Jing's improper behavior offset the merits and demerits. Everyone was promoted and rewarded, but Li Jingmao didn't get it.

But the next day, a sensational event happened in the capital, and Lord Liu, the head of the household department, died in Yihong Courtyard.

This Lord Liu has been in the household department for all these years, and he can be regarded as conscientious, but this person has one of the biggest problems, lustful.

In addition to the head lady Mrs. Liu, the concubine took more than a dozen rooms, which is not enough, it is said that there are several outer rooms outside, and she is even more obsessed with the top brand of Yihong Courtyard, Su Zhenzhen girl, often lingers in Su Zhenzhen's room, and does not return all night.

Some people often say in private that sooner or later Lord Liu wants the peony flower to die, but he didn't expect it to become a prophecy, and in the early morning of this day, a terrible scream sounded in Yihong Courtyard.

Su Zhenzhen crawled open the door and shouted, "Dead man, dead man, Lord Liu is dead!!! ”

This Yihong Courtyard died an important minister of the court, no matter what the reason was, it was impossible to open it, and before Su Zhenzhen could recover from the shock, he was arrested by Yin of Jingzhao Mansion and imprisoned.

"Really girl, I advise you to recruit it quickly! You thin-skinned and tender flesh can't stand the torture instruments like flowing water in the palace! "Jingzhao Mansion Yin took such a hot potato, from the emperor to the people, everyone was staring, and now he just wants to use all means to solve the case as soon as possible.

Su Zhenzhen cried and shouted injustice: "My lord, the slave family really doesn't know what to confess!" ”

At this moment, he hurriedly came to the court: "Report to Lord Liu, it has been ascertained that Lord Liu died of the poison of Heding Red." ”

Jingzhao Mansion Yin's face changed drastically, and he picked up the shocking wood and knocked it hard: "Su Zhenzhen, Lord Liu stayed in your room yesterday, and found that he was poisoned and died early this morning, you dare to say that it has nothing to do with you at this time, come here, put on the torture instrument, and beat me hard until she confesses!" ”

Su Zhenzhen shook his head desperately and cried, but it didn't help at all, for Jingzhao Mansion Yin, finding the truth is the most important thing.

Within half an hour, the guards reported that Su Zhen was really unbearable and committed suicide by biting his tongue.

Jingzhao Mansion Yin nodded expressionlessly, took out a confession that had already been prepared, pressed a bloody handprint for Su Zhenzhen, and sent it to the palace.

"Your Majesty, Lord Liu's death has been ascertained, it is Su Zhenzhen, the flower of Yihong Courtyard, because Lord Liu is unwilling to redeem her body and marry her into the mansion and resentful, he went down to the top of the crane and poisoned Lord Liu, this is Su Zhenzhen's confession, please take a look." After the words fell, he handed over the forged confession.

After the emperor glanced at it, he sighed and said, "There is a knife on the head of the color word!" ”

Hearing this, Jingzhao Mansion Yin secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Where's the poisonous woman?" The emperor asked again.

Jingzhao Mansion Yin kowtowed: "The poisonous woman has committed suicide in prison. ”

After hearing this, the emperor waved his hand and let Jingzhao Mansion Yin go down.

Jingzhao Mansion Yin walked out of the Heart Cultivation Palace, and happened to meet Prime Minister Jiang Cheng, the two of them looked at each other, nodded almost undetectably, and passed by.

"Weichen Jiang Yu has seen the emperor, long live the emperor, long live long live."

"Get up! What's the matter? The emperor was having a headache at the moment because of the sudden vacancy in the household department, and his tone was a little tired.

"Weichen was shocked to hear the bad news of Lord Liu, and knew that the emperor must be worried about the affairs of the household, so he came to recommend a candidate, or he could help the emperor solve his worries."

The emperor raised his head: "Oh? Who? ”

Jiang Yu arched his hand: "New champion, Li Jing!" ”

Hearing this name, the emperor's brows furrowed slightly, because Meng Qiqi was obsessed with Li Jing's affairs, he deliberately snubbed this new champion and did not give him a heavy responsibility, and the day before yesterday, he heard the queen say that this person's style was inappropriate, so his impression was not good.

Jiang Yu seemed to understand the emperor's concerns, and explained: "Li Jing can become the champion of the new department because of his talent and unique views on national affairs and world affairs, but such a talent is buried because of some trivial matters of children's affection, which is really a loss for Meng Guo. ”

After listening to Jiang Yu's words, the emperor fell into deep thought, no one is perfect, Li Jing's talent he has seen with his own eyes, and it is indeed more than enough to serve as a household servant, but it is just ...... He always had some nostalgia for what had happened before! In addition, in the matter of suppressing bandits, Yan Fei once reported that this Li Jing seemed to be suspected of collaborating with the enemy, although there was no evidence in the end, but there was also a suspicion in his heart.

Jiang Yu saw that the emperor seemed to be shaken, and continued: "If the emperor thinks that Li Jing is too young and needs to be trained, it is better to set up a three-month assessment period, and first raise him to the position of the household servant, so as to solve this urgent need." If the performance of these three months satisfies the emperor, let him sit in this position, if he is indeed a golden jade, the emperor will remove him. ”

Jiang Yu's compromise solution really solved the emperor's doubts, he looked at Jiang Yu approvingly, and said with a smile: "It's so good, come here, draft the purpose." ”

When the news reached Meng Qiqi's ears, the holy decree had already been issued to the Li family, and she angrily swept all the things on the table to the ground.

She didn't believe that Lord Liu was poisoned and killed by a prostitute, and she would not have died sooner, and she chose to die at this time, and her father couldn't see it, but she knew that this matter must have nothing to do with Li Jing.

She took every precaution, and she never thought that this person would dare to blatantly kill the household servant in order to get on the throne!

And that Prime Minister Jiang, when did he collude with Li Jing and actually help him speak!

She worked hard to prevent Li Jing from taking the throne and trapped Yuan Yiyi in the territory of Meng State, but she was easily overturned by him like this, so how could she not be angry!

"Your Highness the Princess." Cui Ping heard the movement in the house and pushed the door in worry.

"Get out!" Meng Qiqi was so angry that she lost her mind at this time, Cui Ping was startled and hurriedly retreated, she had never seen the seventh princess so angry, with an expression of wanting to kill.

But within a quarter of an hour, the door was opened again.

"I told you out, don't you understand? Get out, get out of here, and don't bother me. She picked up a cup and threw it at the door without looking.
