The Five Princes' Mansion and the Xu family have been discussing this matter for a long time, and the rest of the in-laws who came to the Xu family today to participate in the Yuan Xi Weekly Banquet are also busy contacting people tonight.

The most direct one is the Ye family of the Xu family's big house.

This is according to Ye's usual temperament, she really won't care about this matter.

But who called himself married into the Ye family, Ye Jingxing, who was about to ascend the throne, was not only his cousin, but also the brother-in-law of his father-in-law and the uncle of his own children.

Although Ye has a cold temperament, she is sincere to her children.

She knew that her own children might be able to count on her father to be promoted, but after that, she would have to count on Ye Jingxing, her uncle, and Ye Huan's cousin in the future.

Therefore, taking the opportunity of the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month to go to Duanwang's Mansion to see her father, she brought up this matter.

If you want to say that in addition to Xu Shiqiu, there are also Xu Nuanwen and Ye Jingxing in the Xu family, and it is estimated that she guessed that the man who lived in Xu Yanzhu's courtyard at home was afraid that it was Ye Yan, the eldest son of her prince's cousin.

Although this matter is hidden at home, after all, the Ye family is the wife of the Xu family, and there are some things that can be hidden from others, but not necessarily from her.

So after leaving the Xu family's old house, she pondered for a while, and then took the opportunity to meet King Duan this night.

After seeing Queen Duan, the Ye family naturally didn't mention Yan Ye's affairs, but just seriously talked about the hatred between the Xu family and Ye Jingche.

"Daddy, what happened back then, others don't know, you must know. The Xu family has been wronged for so many years, and this time they can see that the enemy gets retribution, but now there are such rumors. "Ye's grasp of proportion is very good, and she is the only one in the entire Duanwang Mansion, who dares to call Duanwang 'Daddy', not 'Father'.

But Duanwang just likes Ye's eldest daughter, not only because she is his first child, but also because Ye's has no mother since she was a child, and she is sensible enough to take care of her younger siblings.

Hearing Ye's words this time, King Duan also sighed.

The news outside the palace has reached the palace, and he doesn't know how.

He didn't want to guess whether this was true or not, but now that he heard the words of the eldest daughter, he also understood what the Xu family meant.

The Xu family, Ye Jingche and the Liu family, the current situation is 'either you die or I die', but in this matter, he did not find any traces of the Xu family's calculation of Ye Jingche, Ye Jingche will have the current situation, that is, he still has the Liu family and the Zheng family.

The Xu family can not take the initiative to calculate the prince because of their loyalty, but the prince really did something wrong, but the Xu family must fall into the well and take revenge.

In this matter, King Duan really can't say that the Xu family is wrong.

If this matter were replaced by him, he was afraid that he would not be better than the Xu family, and maybe he would take the initiative to reach out and do something.

It was precisely because he thought of these things in his heart that in the end, under the expectant gaze of his eldest daughter, he nodded and said: "Don't worry, Daddy is not old and confused, no matter what your imperial uncle thinks about this matter, Daddy must act according to the law here." ”

With such a promise from his own father, Ye's family can be regarded as letting go of half of his heart.

Since she came to Duanwangfu, it is impossible for the Ye family to just say such a thing, and casually mentioned her own Xu Yanhao's marriage.

"Daddy, the body of the emperor's uncle is ......" Speaking of this, Ye Shi paused before continuing: "I'm not talking nonsense, but Yan Hao is not small after all, the matter of marriage has been delayed for a long time, and the day of marriage has been discussed with the Zhang family for a long time, don't ......"

Ye's words were not finished, but King Duan understood what she meant.

The temperament of his own daughter is very clear, and he knows that she values her children as important, so in the end, he looked at Ye Shi and nodded: "The day I chose now is very good, you can just wait for your daughter-in-law's tea with peace of mind." ”

With such a sentence from his father, Ye finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It's just that Ye Shi doesn't know yet, and some things are always a little unexpected.

The Ye family took advantage of the night of the Lantern Festival to return to their parents' house without curfew in the capital, and the other female dependents were not idle, as for the men, they naturally took advantage of the fact that they contacted many people tonight.

However, because tonight is the Lantern Festival, the capital is already lively, and the movement they made did not attract too many people's attention.

After all, after today, the New Year will be over, and it is normal to take advantage of this last day to want to be lively again.

Therefore, no matter how jubilant it was outside the palace this night, the palace was stunned that no news was received.

Of course, the main reason is that King Duan, who is in charge of this matter, pretends to be dumb.

————————————————

The sixteenth day of the first month

The first court meeting after the beginning of the year, as everyone expected, not only discussed several important matters, but also discussed directly from the morning when the sky was just clear, until the evening sky became dark.

Rao was already prepared in advance, but on this day, the female dependents who had men in the family who went to court were still anxious to wait, for fear that something would happen to their men at today's court meeting.

Dong Shu is also one of them.

Although there is the persuasion of Mrs. Xu, Dong Shu can feel the same worry as Mrs. Xu, how can she really put her mind at ease.

When it was close to noon, when the palace had not yet dispersed, Dong Shu looked at Mrs. Xu worriedly and said, "Mother, did you say that today's court meeting, can we achieve what we want?" ”

Mrs. Xu was actually very uncomfortable in her heart, and she had the heart to comfort Dong Shu just now, but she didn't wait for her son, and she didn't hear any news, so she also knew that the court was really uneasy today.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Xu looked directly at Dong Shu and said: "We have done our best in this matter, whether it will be successful or not, in fact, it depends on the mind of the saint." ”

Mrs. Xu said this, but she knew in her heart that according to Rui Kangdi's temperament, as long as no one supported him in this matter, it is estimated that he would not insist too much.

After all, what Ye Jingche and the Liu family did this time did almost shake the country's foundation.

Mrs. Xu still knows a little about Rui Kangdi, and at the beginning of the dynasty this morning, Rui Kangdi tentatively mentioned that he was old and didn't want to see his son walk in front of him.

As a result, as soon as he said this, before others could speak, King Duan took a step forward directly, looked at Rui Kangdi and said: "The imperial brother is reluctant to have a parent, and the ministers can understand." But the state has national laws, the dynasty has a dynasty, Ye Jingche, the Liu family and the Zheng family, etc., what they did this time almost shook the country. Brother Huang, you are not only a father, but also the emperor of my dynasty, and I hope that the imperial brother will take care of my Ye family! ”

This kind of words that do not save face for Emperor Ruikang, only Queen Hu dares to say it in the harem, and above the court, she dares to say it in front of all the ministers, that is, King Duan, the younger brother of the saint.

However, if Rui Kangdi recognizes one thing, it is difficult to change it.

It's like because of the matter of the former prince, he felt guilty about Queen Hu, so no matter how disrespectful Queen Hu was to him later, he was not angry, because he felt that he was sorry for Queen Hu, so he shouldn't be angry.

On the other hand, Emperor Ruikang had long recognized that this was his own brother, who helped him ascend to the throne, and who had helped him many of his younger brothers over the years.

His younger brother has no intention of taking the throne, he will not harm himself, what he says, it must be for his good, for the good of the Ye family.

Because he knew this in his heart, after hearing King Duan's words, Emperor Ruikang was not angry, just sighed, looked at King Duan and said, "King Duan thinks that Ye Jingche matter, how should I deal with it?" ”

With Ruikangdi's words, everyone who was originally concerned also breathed a sigh of relief.

Even those ministers who were not from Ye Jingxing's faction were also relieved.

They and Ye Jingche really didn't have a situation of dying, but after the incident on Chinese New Year's Eve, they didn't dare to let Ye Jingche come out again.

What if he gets the next pill again?

Thinking of this, these ministers strengthened their minds, no matter what they did this time, they couldn't let the Holy Lord let Ye Jingche go.

As for the Liu family and the Zheng family, they ......

Ye Jingche, the mastermind, has been convicted, how can they, the accomplices, escape.

Ruikangdi disposed of his own son, and he would definitely not be soft on these people.

With such a thought, after King Duan opened his mouth and said that he wanted to remove Ye Jingche from the royal family and be banned for life, many people couldn't help but nod their heads.

Everyone knows that Ruikangdi is reluctant to see his own son die in front of him, so let's let Ye Jingche live for a while, after all, Ruikangdi's health is not good, this is something everyone knows.

And King Duan proposed to remove Ye Jingche from the royal family, just to prevent Emperor Ruikang from regretting it in the future, or Ye Jingche wanted to do things with a thief heart.

After listening to King Duan's words, Rui Kangdi fell silent.

He had to admit that the punishment proposed by King Duan was very good, let his son be an ordinary person, as long as he obediently did not make trouble, although he was trapped, his life could be saved, and there was also a son under his knee who could provide for him in his old age.

The most important point is that Rui Kangdi understands that he is still alive now, and when he goes, if Ye Jingche is still the prince, maybe he can really do something again.

At that time, even if King Duan is still there, once the son of heaven and a courtier, maybe Ye Jingxing will directly ask for his life.

The more I thought about it, the more Ruikangdi felt that it was possible.

Thinking of this, Rui Kangdi nodded at King Duan, and then looked at Ye Jingxing, who was standing under him.

"Okay, you have to promise your father to leave him a bloodline to retire and send him to the end."

Rui Kangdi's request is really not excessive, in Ye Jingxing's opinion, even if Ye Jingche's sister-in-law is not successful, isn't there still a concubine who has been sent to Northern Xinjiang?

That concubine will definitely survive, so it is really not difficult to agree to his father's request.

It's just that Ye Jingxing also understood that he couldn't agree so directly, and after thinking about it, he looked at Rui Kangdi and said, "Why don't you invite Master Xuanling into the palace to count a hexagram?" ”

Ye Jingxing would say this, but he just wanted to be in the heart of An Rui Kangdi, after all, after Master Xuanling watched Yuan Xi and arrested Zhou yesterday, he secretly left a message for Dong Shu, he was going to go out to travel for a while.

Only four people know about this.

Dong Shu, Xu Shiqiu, and him and Xu Nuanwen.

So when Ye Jingxing said this, he just wanted to tell Rui Kangdi that not only King Duan was staring at him, but also Master Xuanling was there.

After hearing Ye Jingxing's words, Rui Kangdi was indeed relieved.

He also thought of Master Xuanling, no matter what kind of struggle there was between them, at least their hearts were the same.

Ye's country, there is no room for loss!

It's just that Rui Kangdi didn't expect that he had just agreed to trap Ye Jingche, and the person who delivered the decree here had just left the former Three Princes' Mansion and now the Ye Mansion, and Ye Jingche ended his life with his own hands after killing the female relatives of the Manchu Mansion.
