The matter of accepting bribes once again shocked the government and the opposition.

One is because it's so wide, and the other is because it's huge, and it's quite bad in nature.

And Xiao Mingrui was angry and put Concubine Lan and Jin Guogong into the prison and interrogated them personally, and Xiang Yuanjie did not get rid of the suspicion, and squatted in the class room together.

The results of the interrogation were also astonishing.

Concubine Lan is a delicate concubine after all, Xiao Mingrui's intimidation, coupled with the gloomy and cold cell, made her not last much time before she confessed everything she knew.

Things are probably not much different from what Ye Qingli and Xiao Tingyi guessed.

Liao Zhi was indeed persecuted, because he overheard Zhang Junai, the head of the household, talking to a mysterious person who was tightly covered in a remote corner of the Rokubudo Hall (that is, the joint large office of the six ministries).

Moreover, the content of their conversation was very rebellious, but what it was about, and what the mysterious person looked like, Concubine Lan didn't know very well, anyway, Cheng Jin told her that Zhang Junai was worried about the East Window incident, so he assigned Xiang Yuanjie to buy off Liu Qingshan, that is, Liao Zhi's former subordinate.

They first stole Liao Zhi's handwriting, found someone to imitate the signature, and transferred the disaster relief food god unconsciously, so that Liao Zhi encountered a surprise flying disaster.

Liao Zhi, who was speechless, was powerless to resist, but he was not a fool.

And after discovering Zhang Junai's cattiness, he actually got the gift list at that time and kept it, although no one knows how he did it, but this gift list really played a decisive role.

Moreover, after Zheng Enyi's thorough investigation of Cheng Jin's assets, a very surprising fact was discovered.

And that's—

Cheng Jin, who seems to have strong financial resources and a big family, is actually not rich in his family background, which is why he gave gifts to Zhang Junai and even used his sister's imperial jewelry to subsidize it.

All the large amount of money flowed quietly to an extremely inconspicuous small liquor shop in Yifeng Town, and according to the accounts, Cheng Jin cooperated with this small liquor shop, and also bought a large number of unique wines there, and sold them in his own shop in the capital.

However, when Zheng Enyi personally led people to Yifeng Town, he found that the whole town was empty, not to mention any wine shops.

It's as if no one has ever lived there.

Xiao Mingrui, who stepped on the iron shoes but threw himself into the air, was naturally even more angry, so he grabbed Zhang Junai and Xiang Yuanjie, who were quickly put in prison, and started a new round of torture.

Anyway, the betrayers have no human rights, and even more, they betray the imperial power.

Before, he originally thought that he must seize the decisive evidence and convict them, but what he didn't expect was that although Zhang Junai was iron-clad and gritted his teeth and didn't say anything, Xiang Yuanjie had a strong desire to survive.

I have said everything I know, and I have also involved a group of deep-water parties, which really provided a perfect live target and platform for Xiao Mingrui to get angry.

As a result, the Cheng clan of the Jin State Mansion was beheaded by the nine clans, and the living were all beheaded, and the dead, including the eight generations of the ancestors, were dug out and hung in the sun to whip the corpse, Zhang Junai was Ling Chi, and it took two hundred and one knives to swallow his breath, and Xiang Yuanjie was rewarded by Xiao Mingrui for his 'meritorious service', which was slightly happier than Ling Chi.

With a few 'bangs', it fell apart and burped.

Of course, Liao Zhi's unjust case has finally been rehabilitated by the way.

Although Xiao Mingrui is a little reluctant to admit his mistakes, he has the courage to admit his mistakes, but it is a good opportunity for his liver to set up!

Rush duck fake boy!

But what if people are dead, what if they are rehabilitated?

There is no need for compensation, and there is no need to pay for it, just give a grand false name, so after all, it is only for the living.

As a result, Liao Zhi was posthumously awarded the first-class Ming Guogong, granddaughter Liao Hongxue, in order to reward her perseverance and courage in insisting on believing in her grandfather, she was made an exception and respected as the county lord of Yong'an.

Or, no one would bother to talk about people like him again.

However, what is puzzling is that Liu Qingshan, who originally seemed inconspicuous, seemed to have evaporated from the world and was nowhere to be found.

……

"Hongxue, we've come to see you."

In front of the once bare grave, a new stone monument was finally erected.

It reads: Liao Hongxue's Tomb.

"But I'm sorry for one thing, Hongxue."

Ye Qingli put a bunch of chrysanthemums in front of the stele, gently stroked the handwriting on it, and said, "Liao Sinong's corpse, we still haven't been able to find a trace of it, and the court is only buried in a well-dressed mound, I just hope that after your grandfather and grandson get together below, they will never be separated." ”

At the beginning, after Liao Zhi was beheaded, the body would be destroyed by Jing Zhaoyin, and the real death row prisoner would not be given any human rights.

Moreover, the ancients paid attention to the burial of a person, so in order to punish, they naturally burned the corpse and destroyed the traces, and never let you enter the earth, nor let your soul rest in peace.

Liao Zhi's body was disposed of like this, and there were a lot of bones in the incineration pit, but I didn't know whose it was.

"I'm sorry, this king didn't do a good job."

Xiao Tingyi was silent all the time, staring at the name on the tombstone with a cold expression.

Liao Hongxue's death has always been a shame in his heart.

"Sorrow can only be remembered."

Ye Qingli looked up at the gray sky, and saw that the thin rain was falling, and the ice fell on his face coldly, as if it was like a snowy night before.

Suddenly, my heart suffocated.

"Princess?"

Seeing Ye Qingli half-holding his hands in the air, looking stunned, but unable to stop crying, Xiao Tingyi was a little worried, "Have you thought of something unhappy?" ”

I don't know why, Xiao Tingyi clearly felt her sadness.

"It's fine."

Ye Qingli came back to her senses and grinned at him with a 'I'm fine, I'm fine', but the pretended strength in his eyes made Xiao Tingyi frown.

"You don't want to say it, this king is not reluctant."

Xiao Tingyi glanced to the side, and then, Lin Feng and Du Ruo walked out and held umbrellas for them.

"Hey, it's all about the rotten grains of old sesame seeds, so don't talk about it."

Ye Qingli smiled bitterly, she didn't know what to say at all.

"Then let's go back."

Xiao Tingyi nodded, and really didn't ask much, and then, he took the umbrella in Lin Feng's hand and personally played for Ye Qingli, and the two gradually moved away.

The reason why I don't shy away from it is because this place is inaccessible, and I don't have to worry about goofs at all.

Looking at their backs, Du Ruo was a little happy to see them, so he moved his umbrella to Lin Feng a little, and touched him with his elbow again, "You say, are the princes and princesses very different?" ”

Lin Feng replied calmly, "Hmm." ”

At the same time, the ...... that I had accidentally seen before began to appear in front of my eyes

"What do you think is going on?"

Du Ruo was puzzled, pinched his chin and meditated.

And Lin Feng just coughed lightly, "Master's affairs, we care so much about what to do." ”

"Yes."

Du Ruo was very free and easy, but he was not entangled, and then laughed again, "They are very suitable for each other, as long as they are together, it doesn't matter how they get on." ”

Lin Feng: ......

After returning to the palace, Ye Qingli left Xiao Tingyi and went to Mama Gui to find Linglong.

After careful calculation, Linglong has not been by her side for more than ten days.

Of course, it was because of the same embarrassment as Lin Feng before.

But the only difference is that Lin Feng is a calm and self-controlled old man, a calm guard, well-trained, and his face can be tightened, but Linglong is a little girl who has not grown up.

Ever since she saw the beautiful scene in the house, she felt panicked all day long, as if she had offended something, and she was too ashamed to look up.

"Linglong, come back with me."

As soon as Ye Qingli entered the door, she saw her hiding behind Mama Gui, and she couldn't help but feel a little helpless.

Co-authored, she won't see herself in the future?

"Princess, the slave and maid saw what they shouldn't see, offended the princess and princess, and really didn't have the face to go back and serve."

Linglong covered her face and said guiltily.

Ye Qingli: ???

"Princess, why don't you let her stay here."

Mama Gui smiled kindly, rummaging with all kinds of poisonous weeds in her hands, "Learn some fur, and it will be helpful to follow you in the future." ”

Ye Qingli was suddenly pleasantly surprised, she didn't expect Mama Gui to be willing to cultivate Linglong!

This is something she can't ask for in her heart, so she said happily, "Mama, you are willing to give favors, and I will naturally not refuse to come." ”

Du Ruo's skills are very good, but Linglong doesn't know anything, let alone helping her, even protecting herself is a problem.

But if she can learn a few tricks, at least she will not worry about her life in the future.

"The princess is too polite, you didn't scoff at these poisons, and the old slave was very happy."

Mama Gui smiled happily.

"Linglong, don't hurry up yet!"

"Huh?"

Seeing Ye Qingli suddenly ordering herself, Linglong didn't react, until she understood Ye Qingli's mouth shape, she hurriedly 'pounced' and knelt down, kowtowing respectfully, "The slave is willing to learn!" Please, Professor Mama! ”

"Hoo ......"

Ye Qingli breathed a sigh of relief, the widow is still teachable, and it is thorough.

"Hurry up."

Mama Gui was overjoyed, helped Linglong up, and said, "Then from today onwards, you don't have to go back to the princess first, follow me to study hard, and try to catch up with the princess's progress." ”

"Yes!"

Linglong was a little happy, but then she thought of her duty as a slave.

Therefore, he lowered his head a little uneasily.

"It's okay."

Ye Qingli stroked her hair with a smile, "It just so happens that you don't want to go back, just take this opportunity to study as much as you can, if you learn well, you can help me a lot like Du Ruo." ”

"Yes!"

When Linglong heard this, she felt that this was reasonable, and quickly abandoned her uneasiness, and Ye Qingli bowed solemnly to Mama Gui again, "Thank you, Master." ”

She knew very well that Linglong was not the material for learning poison, and she could doze off when she looked at the Poison Sutra, but Mama Gui took the initiative to open a small stove to teach, and the reason for this was really obvious.

is so that in the future, Linglong will not become a burden to her, and she will be able to share more worries.

And Mama Gui didn't shirk it, she accepted her worship with a smile, and nodded with satisfaction, "You apprentice, I will accept the old woman." ”
