The night wind blew away the end of his words.

No one had an interface, and several pavilion elders present knew that the evidence of Cheng Engong's various crimes was conclusive, and Cen Yin had the intention to punish Cheng Engong, even if the emperor and queen came forward, they couldn't protect Cheng Engong.

There is no doubt that the Chengen Mansion is definitely over.

Next, whether to punish Cheng Engong's family, or whether it will implicate the entire Xie family, still depends on Cen Yin's meaning.

A cold night breeze blew suddenly, Yu Bingzhong sneezed coldly, he wiped his mouth and nose with a handkerchief, and said apologetically: "It's not early, a few adults, I'll leave first." ”

The other elders didn't stay long, and after saying goodbye to each other, they got on their horses and went back to their respective homes.

The crisp sound of horses' hooves echoes through the empty streets at night.

Duanmu Xian galloped all the way, his mind was chaotic, he thought of the emperor lying on the couch, thought of Chengengong, and thought of Cen Yin......

The past few years have been played back as clearly as a marquee in front of Duanmuxian's eyes.

Cen Yin took ten steps and thought about it, swallowing and encroaching step by step, and finally firmly held the government in his hands.

Now no one wants to shake his position easily!

Even Duanmuxian doesn't know what direction Dasheng will go in the future in the future, he can only take one step at a time, at least from the current point of view, it is better for Cen Yin to control the government than for the emperor to fool around.

Duanmu Xian couldn't help but let out a long sigh, and thought of his eldest granddaughter again, only to feel that his head hurt even more, and raised his hand to rub his eyebrows, only then did he find that the surroundings were somewhat familiar.

He came to the town street where the Chengen Mansion was located again, and from a distance, he could see several Dongchang fans still guarding the gate, with a grim expression.

On this night, the lights of the Chengen Mansion were not extinguished all night.

Not only the Cheng'en Mansion, but also the noble courtiers in the entire capital did not sleep well this night, and many people secretly looked at the Cheng'en Mansion, wanting to see what Cen Yin would do with the Xie family.

Especially Liao Yushi, Prince An and other people who are more or less involved with the Chengen Mansion, are even more afraid that this fire will burn from the Xie family to their bodies.

It was a long night.

When the sun rises again, the curfew is lifted, and even more people look at the Cheng'en Mansion.

However, the people of Dongchang were still guarding the gate of the Chengen Mansion, and no one dared to get too close, so they could only stand far away and look at the gate to see what Dongchang had copied from the Chengen Mansion.

Since there is no clue from the Cheng'en Mansion for the time being, some people with flexible brains have begun to use other brains.

Originally, it was not a secret that Cen Yin had entered the Chengen Mansion with Duanmu Xian, You Junji, and Lord Zuodu Yu Shi Li yesterday, and immediately someone ran to find a few pavilion elders and Lord Li to get close to each other.

The attention of all the prefectures in Beijing was focused on the Cheng'en Mansion, so that many people even forgot that the emperor had awakened, and the streets and alleys were discussing the seizure of the Cheng'en Mansion, and there was a lot of uproar.

Of course, King Jian's mansion also knows about this matter, and has been sending people to pay attention to the latest developments in this matter.

"Your Highness, the people sent by the slave maid to check on the Cheng'en Mansion have returned, saying that the people from Dongchang have not left yet, and they have surrounded the Cheng'en Mansion like an iron bucket, and there is no new news for the time being." The palace maid Qingfeng said to Wu Yang with a solemn expression.

There are only two of them in the room at the moment, Wuyang is sitting on a rosewood circle chair by the window, she wears a moon-white plain gown, a green silk only pulls a loose squirrel, mutton fat white jade earrings, hairpins and bracelets do not see any color, plain and elegant.

Wuyang drank tea slowly, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and he didn't speak.

Qing Feng hesitated for a moment, but still asked cautiously: "Your Highness, do you want to ask the fourth girl of Duanmu about one or two?" ”

Duanmu Xian went to the Chengen Mansion with Cen Yin last night, and the Duanmu family must know some about the situation in the Chengen Mansion.

Wuyang said casually: "No need. ”

She put down the teacup in her hand a little absent-mindedly, her eyes shining slightly.

As early as when she decided to make a thorough investigation of the huge amount of money in the Cheng'en Mansion, she knew that there would be such a day.

There are some things she has to do, but please be worthy of her heart!

Wuyang turned his head to look out the window, looking in the direction of the palace, his expression was stunned, and there was a touch of exhaustion on his beautiful face.

Qing Feng looked at Wuyang and sighed secretly in his heart.

She has served by the eldest princess since she was a child, so she naturally understands the eldest princess's intentions, and she knows that the eldest princess is actually uncomfortable when she does this......

Since yesterday morning I got the news that the Cheng'en Mansion was raided by Dongchang, the eldest princess has not eaten for a day, and she was on duty last night, and she knows that although the eldest princess went to rest as usual, she didn't sleep all night, and she couldn't sleep all night.

Qingfeng wanted to persuade, but she knew that any verbal comfort at this time was powerless, as a slave, all she could do was add tea to Wuyang and tell the little maid to serve a bird's nest porridge and other small things.

When the bird's nest porridge came up, the person who went to the Cheng'en Mansion to inquire about the news came back, and after listening to the mother-in-law's outline, Qingfeng realized that this matter was not trivial, so he took the Tsing Yi woman who came to report into the left room.

The woman in Tsing Yi had never entered the main courtyard, let alone approached Wuyang's side, and the whole person was so frightened that she almost didn't even know how to put her hands and feet, and stumbled to Wuyang to say goodbye: "I've seen the princess." ”

Qingfeng quietly glanced at the woman in Tsing Yi and motioned her to speak directly.

The woman in Tsing Yi swallowed her saliva before she began to get down to business: "Just now, the people from the Metropolitan Procuratorate went to the Cheng'en Mansion, and I heard that the black accounts of corruption and bribery were found in the Cheng'en Mansion, involving tens of millions of taels of silver, and those account books have been taken over by the Metropolitan Procuratorate. And ......"

She paused for a moment before adding, "Also, a large number of firearms and gunpowder were also found there. ”

"......" Wuyang's eyes widened slightly, and it was difficult to hide his surprise.

Although she had long known that it would definitely not be clean for the Chengen Mansion to have such a large amount of money of unknown origin, she did not expect that it would be involved in such a big crime as possession of firearms.

There was silence in the room.

The woman in Tsing Yi was so nervous that she almost held her breath, and she was so cramped that she lowered her head.

I don't know how long it took, Wuyang stood up, stroked his skirt elegantly and said, "Qingfeng, you go with the palace to have a look." ”

Wuyang didn't say where to go, of course Qingfeng knew that the master wanted to go to the Chengen Mansion.

Qing Feng glanced at the bird's nest porridge on the side that had not eaten a few bites, and sighed silently in his heart.

Wuyang said that he was going to leave the house, and the people below immediately moved and prepared the red wheel.

After two teas, the Zhulun drove out of the corner gate on the side of King Jian's mansion and went to the Cheng'en Mansion on Zhenzhong Street with a clear goal.

The streets of the town were bustling with people and onlookers who had come to hear the news, and they were noisy and shouting like a pot of boiling hot water.

The speed of the Zhulun car inevitably slowed down, and it stopped two or three feet away from the Cheng'en Mansion, and the chatter of onlookers outside came into the car one after another.

"Look, look! People are out! ”

"This is Cheng Engong?!"

"Why do I look like a merchant with a fat head and big ears?"

"This is called being born from the heart. I looked, this corrupt official is either fat head and big ears, or sharp-beaked monkey gills! ”

“……”

The onlookers talked lively, and Wuyang opened the curtain on the side of the vermilion wheel with one hand and looked in the direction of the Chengen Mansion.

At this moment, the vermilion lacquer gate of the Cheng'en Mansion was wide open, and the Cheng'en Duke stepped out of the high threshold under the escort of Dongchang Fanzi, and the Duchess of Cheng'en followed behind him.

Not only did Wuyang see Cheng Engong and his wife, but Cheng Engong and his wife also saw her, Cheng Engong's originally gray face was surging with anger, and he trembled with anger, and scolded: "Wuyang, you still have a face!" ”

As soon as they heard Cheng Engong shouting Wuyang, those onlookers knew that the person sitting in the carriage was actually the eldest princess of Dasheng, and many people couldn't help but show their brilliance, stretching their necks and looking at Wuyang, wanting to see what the princess of the golden branches and jade leaves looked like.

Cheng Engong didn't care about the commotion around him, and scolded Wuyang angrily with his voice, chattering:

"Slut, you have harmed our family like this, are you satisfied?!"

"The most poisonous woman's heart, your heart is too vicious, your blood must be cold!"

"Don't forget that you also have the blood of our Xie family in your body, what good will it do you if our Xie family suffers!"

"If you are not filial piety and injustice, and you don't think about blood and family affection, aren't you afraid of retribution in the future?!"

The more Cheng Engong spoke, the more angry he became, every word was louder than the other, and he couldn't wait to vent the anger in his heart at one time, and he couldn't wait to tear Wuyang with his own hands.

Among the officials in the capital, who has not received some bribes, and who is really honest, he is just a little greedy.

If it weren't for Wuyang's request for Cen Yin to investigate thoroughly, how could their Xie family end up today!

That's right, it's all about dancing yang!

It's all about Wuyang not thinking about family affection, it's Wuyang meddling!

Duchess Chengen was also furious, and rushed forward to settle accounts with Wuyang, but was stopped by a Dongchang fan with a scabbard.

After not sleeping all night, Duchess Cheng'en was a lot haggard, as if she had aged several years all of a sudden, her eyes were full of red bloodshots, she glared at Wuyang who was a foot away viciously, and reprimanded in a miserable voice:

"Wuyang, you have no conscience!"

"Since you were a child, your grandmother has treated you like a pearl in the palm of her hand, even calling your name when she is dying, and your uncle is even better to you than her own daughter, but what about you? You don't miss family affection, you have no heart and lungs, and you actually pushed your uncle's family into hell with your own hands! ”

"Don't think that you are a princess, a golden branch and a jade leaf, you think you are noble! A princess who has no support is nothing! ”

"Do you think that if you please Cen Yin now, you will be able to please it?! For Cen Yin, there are many people who please him, there is no more than you, and there is no less than you! ”

"You young couples, love now, but what about the future?! When you have nothing in the future, do you think King Jian will still want you?! ”

Duchess Cheng'en described her madness as a madwoman, and when she said that later, she couldn't tell whether she was angrily denouncing or cursing Wuyang.

The people around were in an uproar for a while, and there was a lot of uproar.

It was not until this moment that most of the onlookers heard some clues from the angry scolding of Chengen Gong and his wife, and looked at each other with different expressions.

A gray-clothed young man couldn't help but say to the middle-aged man beside him: "This eldest brother, I listened to the meaning of their words, could it be that the Chengen Mansion was found to be corrupt because the eldest princess killed her relatives and reported it to the court?" ”

"I sound like it!" The middle-aged man touched his beard and nodded again and again, "This eldest princess is really iron-faced and selfless!" ”

"yes." Another Gu Xi old man also chimed in, "I heard that this grandfather is greedy for tens of millions of taels!" Black heart, what a black heart! ”

"Hey!" A middle-aged woman couldn't help but interject, "Don't you think this eldest princess is too unsympathetic." Anyway, it's also my own relative......"

There were several people around who nodded their heads again and again, thinking that it was wrong for the Chengen Mansion to be corrupt, but the eldest princess was also chilling.

"A woman's opinion!" Immediately, a middle-aged scribe retorted, "Is it possible to let Cheng Engong continue to do whatever he wants, and hollow out my Dasheng!" ”

The crowd of onlookers had their own opinions and argued.

These noisy voices could not reach Wuyang's ears at all, and her attention was focused on Cheng'en and his wife.

The noisy chatter outside couldn't reach Wuyang's ears at all, and her attention was focused on Cheng'en and his wife, looking straight at the two.

At first, Wuyang was also uncomfortable in her heart, but being scolded by them, she calmed down.

She remembered that her sister had told her that when you make a certain choice, you have to understand that you can't please everyone.

In life, it is impossible for anyone to please everyone!

Just want to be worthy of your heart.

And......

Wuyang looked at Duchess Cheng'en, and then at Cheng'engong, until now, Cheng'en Gong has not repented, and he has not reflected on the sins he has committed.

Wuyang asked calmly, "Uncle, did your palace let you hide firearms privately?" ”

"......" Cheng Engong seemed to be choked by the neck, and he was dumbfounded for a while.

Wuyang continued to ask: "Is it because this palace makes you greedy and trying to control the government in vain?" ”

"......" The corners of Cheng Engong's mouth twitched, and his eyes became more gloomy.

Wuyang asked again: "Is it this palace that made you corrupt, take bribes, and bully the people?" ”

It is with the cause of their sowing that there will be today's fruit.

And the fact that the grand event has become so precarious and devastated today is the cause planted by her father......

Thinking about it, Wuyang's heart was filled with a thick bitterness, and his eyes became deeper and firmer.

"You ......" Cheng Engong's chest rose and fell in anger, and he gritted his teeth and retorted, "You are strong!" ”

He just took some money, not to kill for money, not to rebel and rebel, so what is it?! Who doesn't take some silver!

He had some firearms in his possession, but that was also just in case, to protect himself. There are so many families in the capital, he doesn't believe that other families don't raise some private soldiers and hide some weapons!

These are originally everyone's consensus, but they won't be put on the table to say it, but Wuyang made a big deal about the small things, making everyone know about them, and he was pinched by Cen Yin!

That's right, he's not wrong, it's all Wuyang's fault!

At this time, Cheng Engong felt a force coming from the rear suddenly, and he staggered forward two steps, and a Dongchang fan in the rear urged angrily: "Hurry!" Let's get up there. ”

Several prisoner vans had already stopped outside the gate of the Cheng'en Mansion.

Looking at the simple and rough prisoner car, Cheng Engong's body froze, and he was reluctant to step forward at all, however, at this time, it was not that he didn't want to, so he could say no.

Seeing that he didn't move, the two Dongchang fans simply dragged him into the prisoner car.

Cheng Engong struggled desperately, but he couldn't break free at all, and continued to shout unwillingly: "Wuyang, you will regret it!" ”

"You'll regret it!"

"If this father collapses, you and the queen will not be pleased, if you want to die, everyone will die together!"

"My father is waiting for your mother and daughter on Huangquan Road! My father won't let you go! ”

Wuyang didn't speak anymore, and watched coldly as the people from the Cheng'en Mansion were escorted to the prisoner car one after another, and the prisoner car slowly drove away from the middle street of the town.

Most of the people sent by the prefectures to listen to the news left silently, but the streets were still crowded, and those who watched the excitement were still unwilling to leave.

Wuyang closed his eyes, lowered the curtains, and whispered, "Let's go." ”

Qingfeng let the groom leave in the other direction, going against the line of prisoner carts.

There was a long silence in the carriage.
