Chapter 314: Pursuit
Rao is so, and the officials still feel that something is wrong.
But at this point in the trial, they all felt that their authority was not enough, so after the three parties were named, Emperor Xuande was played.
Emperor Xuande was shocked and angry when he read the confession. immediately put all Zhou Cheng's protégés in Beijing under house arrest and asked them to confirm Zhou Yunya's identity.
Zhou Yunya is genuine, and naturally can stand up to recognition. On the contrary, Zhou Yunya cried about her miserable experience when she saw a person.
It's chilling.
Zhou Cheng can use such cruel means against his own daughter, his own daughter who was extremely pampered in the past, let alone an outsider?
So after Zhou Yunya cried and showed the scars on her body, the protégé who was originally an unwavering user of Zhou Cheng gradually wavered.
Emperor Xuande secretly sent someone to verify the information provided by Zhou Yunya.
Although all the actions were carried out in secrecy, there was still a hint of rumors leaking out, and the protégés of Zhou Cheng, who had been shaken, hurriedly tried every means to clear up their relationship with Zhou Cheng, and at the very least, they also wanted to prove their innocence.
In late November, there was a heavy snowfall, the fourth snow since the beginning of winter this year, and the first three snows were relatively light.
From the first snowflakes in the morning to the dark, the snow continued to fall.
The snow scene in the capital is very interesting.
The Guogong Mansion is very large, and the overall appearance has the atmosphere of the northern garden, and the details are combined with the elegance of the southern garden, which is very interesting.
Therefore, Su Heting took Yuan Ning around the house for a day with a food box, and if he felt tired wherever he went, he stopped, found a room casually, and didn't need to be served, and picked up a little dead branch to go back.
The weather is cold, the snow does not melt, and the branches and dead grass buried under the snow are dry.
Feel free to light a fire in a room to keep warm, and it won't take long for the house to warm up, because of the copper basin, and you are not afraid of causing a fire.
There was a small charcoal basin fixed to the base in the food box, so the food was still warm when it came out.
After enough shopping, the two returned to the courtyard where they lived hand in hand.
This is also the upper room of the Guogong Mansion, a square yard, the entrance is a carved flower wall, in spring and summer, the top is wrapped with green climbing plants, the flowering season is dotted, the green leaves are layered, and the eyes are cool.
There is a plum tree planted behind the wall, and now the freehand plum branches have grown small buds. Wrapped in snow, it looks like a white plum tree.
In the middle of the courtyard, there is a road leading directly to the upper house, and on the left and right of the road is a delicately shaped flower pond, and the flowers and trees that have lost their leaves and the pond are covered with snow.
The road was swept and it was easy to tell that the thickness of the snow was different from elsewhere.
Su Heting was afraid that the road would slip, so he kept holding Yuan Ning's hand tightly.
I went up the stairs until I got to the bottom of the porch, so I didn't have to worry about snow falling on me.
Su Heting casually put the food box on the cloister, and took out a handkerchief to help Yuan Ning sweep away the snow that fell on his shoulders and hood.
Looking at the white in front of me, I couldn't help but sigh, "This white land looks so clean!" But except for the heavens and the earth, I'm afraid no one knows what kind of ugliness is hidden under this piece of whiteness. ”
Although the two of them don't go out much these days, Nanchuan will come over to tell them about the things outside every day, so they also know the situation outside very well.
Yuan Ning watched the snow fall densely, almost blocking his vision, stomped his feet, and pulled him into the house, "I'm really a little tired after a day of shopping." ”
Although the two of them live very comfortably, the problem of eating is not easy to solve, on a cold day, Su Heting does not want Yuan Ning to be wronged to cook, and his own craftsmanship is also very average, so he does not want to wronged Yuan Ning's stomach.
So I hired an old mother who was in charge of cleaning and a cook who was in charge of cooking.
As soon as she learned that they had returned, the cook immediately put the ingredients that had been prepared into the pot.
The old mother brought hot water over to serve them, and after washing, the two went back to the room to change into a set of clothes, and the meal was already on the table.
After eating, they sent people down, and the two sat and talked on the big kang in the banquet room.
Yuan Ning lay on the kang table and knocked on the table, "Just be honest, are you behind the scenes to promote the development of things?"
"Tiger poison doesn't eat children, even if Zhou Cheng is angry that his daughter is embarrassed by herself, at most, she will make her seriously ill silently, or even fake her death to get out, and find her a good family to marry.
"It's impossible to get along with so many vicious means to put her to death, right? It didn't do him any good. ”
"Vicious?" Su Heting asked rhetorically, "Do you think those methods are very ...... Vicious? ”
"Doesn't count?" Yuan Ning's eyes rolled, and he said with a strong desire to survive, "In fact, what means to deal with whom people varies from person to person, and such means should be used to deal with such people!" That's it, I think it's too gentle! ”
Su Heting held the person in his arms and gently pinched Yuan Ning's nose, "Why are you so good at talking?" ”
"You mean I wasn't very good at talking?" Yuan Ning glared at him and decided to take back a city.
"You wouldn't have been so funny talking before, anyway." Su Heting put it another way.
"There is nothing in this world that will or not," Yuan Ning pursed his lips, "It mainly depends on whether I want to or not." ”
You don't turn a corner when you speak, and that's because you don't care about the feelings of the person listening to you. As long as you care, your brain will go around a little and your tongue will be a little slower.
Su Heting haha, lowered his head and kissed her on the face.
Yuan Ning pushed him, "Don't worry about him left and right, say it quickly!" ”
She wanted to know more details.
"This is mainly done by my father," Su Heting said quietly, "You also know that in this position, he will always know something that we don't know, or the most taboo things in the royal family."
"In fact, these things don't matter whether they are true or not, even if they are just chasing the wind and shadows, they are the most feared by the royal family.
"Not to mention, these things that Zhou Cheng did are indeed well documented.
"We couldn't find a breakthrough before, because Zhou Yunya didn't appear. Zhou Cheng really loves this little daughter very much, and protects her impenetrablely, this time if she hadn't made the decision to get rid of the people arranged by Zhou Cheng and came to the capital, we would have to spend a lot of time. ”
Yuan Ning completely understood that they pretended to be Zhou Cheng's people, and intimidated Zhou Yunya in every way, so that she almost died several times, and was full of hatred and resentment towards Zhou Cheng.
Then he took advantage of the situation and exposed what Zhou Cheng had done in front of Emperor Xuande.
If he touches Emperor Xuande's bottom line, he will definitely investigate it thoroughly.
