Zhilan's death was like a stone falling into the surface of the lake, splashing a splash, and soon the lake seemed to be calm again. In fact, there are waves in the water.

In the Fulin Palace, people's hearts fluctuate even more.

Who is Zhilan?

She is a confidant of Empress Dowager Yu and the female official in charge of the Fulin Palace. All the palace maids in the Fulin Palace are all looking at Zhilan with the horse's head.

Everyone knows that Zhilan is loyal to Empress Dowager Yu.

No one thought that Zhilan would commit suicide.

Empress Dowager Yu does not regret it, no one knows. The palace maids are all frightened and in danger, and they always feel that the next unlucky person will be themselves.

After Zhilan died, Yuqiao followed suitably and fell ill. According to the rules of the palace, a sick palace maid is not allowed to serve her master closely, so as not to get sick. Yu Qiao lay in the house to recuperate, and when she was close to the Empress Dowager Yu, she changed to the other two palace maids.

Within two days, the two palace maids were both punished for making mistakes, and they were each beaten with dozens of boards, almost half their lives. So, I had to change it again......

In such a situation, it is inevitable that people's hearts will fluctuate and be uneasy.

Yu Yan, who was by the side of Empress Dowager Yu all day long, was also trembling. lest he say half a word wrong, which will make Empress Dowager Yu angry.

A few days later, Princess Linjiang entered the palace to visit Empress Dowager Yu.

I don't know what Empress Dowager Yu said, when Princess Linjiang left, her expression was a little gloomy.

Within two days, Zhilan's father and brother fell into the lake after getting drunk and died "accidentally".

Zhilan's father and brother were all criminals, and because Zhilan was favored by the Empress Dowager Yu, she was lucky enough to return to Beijing and get an errand in Huangzhuang. As soon as Zhilan died, Empress Dowager Yu was angry, and the two of them had no way to live.

……

The news quickly reached Xie Yuanting's ears.

Xie Yuanting, who had been making a fuss about going to Huangzhuang on an errand, suddenly looked colorless.

He worked in the Huangzhuang for a total of half a month, and Zhilan's father and brother frequently courted him and led him to gamble on silver and drink flower wine. Xie Yuanting is most familiar with the two of them.

The Sun family, who had a huge belly, saw Xie Yuanting's frightened appearance, and his heart softened, and he sighed in a low voice: "I have persuaded you several times before." The queen mother and the queen mother are not in harmony, in order to add to the queen mother's blockage, what can't the queen mother do? ”

"I have never let you go to Huangzhuang on an errand, because I am afraid that you will be used by others and become a gunman. You always think that I deliberately detain you and don't let you out. ”

"You should know my hard work by now!"

Xie Yuantingjun's face turned pale, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he was afraid: "You're right." I'd better not go to such a terrible place. ”

"After that, I studied at home. When the son in your womb is born, I will teach him to read. ”

Sun glared: "You keep saying son, don't you like it when I give birth to a daughter?" ”

In the past, the Sun family was fierce and spicy, and often used his hands. Now that Sun is more than eight months pregnant, she is about to give birth to term, and she is worried about the child in her belly, and she can't do it at will.

However, Xie Yuanting was used to being bullied, and he had no idea of taking the opportunity to resist at all.

As soon as Sun turned his face and cursed, Xie Yuanting immediately admitted: "How can this be." Whether you have a son or a daughter, I love it all the same. ”

That's pretty much it.

Sun's heart calmed down a little: "I figured it out." It is best to have a son, and it is the same if you give birth to a daughter, raise it well, and grow up to be promising. ”

"Look at yourself, you don't have the ability to do it. Now the glory of the Xie family's court, but the queen's mother! It is said that niece Aunt Xiao, if I give birth to a daughter like the queen's mother, I would rather give birth to a daughter! ”

What's so good about being like Xie Mingxi!

Xie Yuanting sneered disdainfully. After seeing Sun's horizontal eyebrows, the sneer quickly swallowed back.

……

No one expected that the death of Zhilan's father and brother would become the beginning of the complete defeat of the Linjiang Palace.

The two stewards of the Huangzhuang accidentally fell into the water and died, which should not have alarmed the court. But Zhilan's sister-in-law led her son, who was less than ten years old, to beat the Dengwen drum and sue the royal court. claimed that her father-in-law did not accidentally fall into the water, but was poisoned by someone.

In this way, the matter will be heard by heaven, and the Criminal Department will not be able to take it over if it wants to.

At the court meeting, the Son of Heaven issued a strict order to Tong Shangshu of the Criminal Department: "...... Orphans and widows, risking their lives to beat the drum and sue the emperor. As the Son of Heaven, I must not sit idly by. ”

"The Criminal Department will immediately investigate this case, and I will give you five days to find out the cause of this case and find out the real culprit behind the scenes."

Tong Shangshu solemnly received the order.

King Linjiang, who was standing at the head of the prince of the clan, had a shadow on his fat face.

Empress Dowager Yu was furious and wanted the lives of Zhilan's father and brother. Princess Linjiang brought Empress Dowager Yu's message back to the house, and King Linjiang sent two secret guards to "clean up" the two.

Zhilan's widowed sister-in-law and nephew actually have the courage to beat the drum!

Such a trivial matter actually made a fuss before the saint.

King Linjiang had a strong premonition in his heart. After dispersing, he secretly ordered that the two secret guards be disposed of. He also ordered all the people in the house not to leave the house at will.

Two days later, Lang Zhong of the Criminal Department led dozens of arresters to the door of the Linjiang Palace.

The king of Linjiang was in the barracks, not in the house. Princess Linjiang responded calmly: "The prince is not in the mansion, if there is anything, I will talk about it when the prince returns to the mansion." ”

Lang Zhong of the Criminal Department spoke politely, but his attitude was extremely tough: "The lower official came to search the Linjiang Palace, on the order of Tong Shangshu, please make it convenient for the Princess of Linjiang." ”

The king of Linjiang holds the power of the army, and there are hundreds of guards in the palace, and there are many secret guards. Langzhong of the Criminal Department wanted to search the Linjiang Palace, but the Linjiang Princess was shocked and frightened, her mind was dizzy, and she shouted: "Stop them!" ”

This shout suddenly broke down.

The palace guards surrounded them, and Lang Zhong of the criminal department led the catchers to break through, pushing and shoving, and one of the catchers was kicked to the ground. Soon, there was a real fire on both sides and a fight broke out.

One side is vigorous, but the other side is overwhelming. In less than a moment, the catchers were knocked to the ground, and the leading criminal department Lang Zhong was hit in the nose by some guard, and his nose bleeded for a long time, and he looked embarrassed.

Lang Zhong of the Criminal Department was beaten, but he did not flinch, and shouted loudly: "The lower official came on the order of Lord Shangshu, and he also has the official document of the Criminal Department in his hand. The Linjiang palace bullied people and beat the court officials. The lower official will go back to the criminal department, please go up to the upper part of the court, and seek justice for the lower official! ”

After speaking, I greeted the crowd, you put your arm on my shoulder, I helped you, and walked away in embarrassment.

Princess Linjiang's breath was not relaxed, and she was frightened by the words of Lang Zhong of the criminal department before leaving.

Two hours later, the king of Linjiang returned to the palace with a black face.

Princess Linjiang hurriedly stepped forward: "Lord, something is wrong......

Before he finished speaking, King Linjiang's heavy slap fell, and a bright red five-finger print fell on Princess Linjiang's face: "Stupid woman!" ”
