After returning to the Qingping Marquis Mansion from the Shen family, Ying Nantu and Shen Ning's mood had calmed down. In Yuju, Chen Cheng and Qiu Ge are reporting to them what they have found today.

Chen Cheng knew what Nantu meant, he didn't alarm anyone in the small kitchen, but he made it clear the relationship behind them, family children, outsiders, new slaves, and old stewards were all the key objects of investigation.

It's just that for most of the day, everyone is doing their own thing, and they haven't noticed anything suspicious. Qiuwu outside the mansion, according to the information provided by Chen Cheng, carried out further investigation of these people, and all the connections were gradually summarized in front of Ying Nantu.

"Keep an eye on the small kitchen first, and then send the food to Xia Qi, who will be in charge of it, saying that the eldest grandmother is new to it, and she is not used to eating the food of the Hou Mansion. In addition, I picked a few reliable people from outside, and sent them to the small kitchen with Xia Qi. After thinking about it, Ying Nantu said. He doesn't care about the things in the inner house, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't know what the inner house is all about.

Originally, the solution was to kill everyone in the small kitchen once and for all, but this was the practice of killing 1,000 enemies and losing 800 of themselves, Ying Nantu also wanted to see which one would be related to the Li family. There are people who have more than one residence, and he has combed it over and over again, but there are still omissions.

It seems that the insidiousness of others is really impossible to prevent.

There is no doubt that the person who committed the poison must be the Li family, and this is what Ying Nantu and Shen Ning are convinced of. What we need to do now is to draw out all the forces that are in collusion with the Li family. Cottonseed flour and cottonseed oil are very dangerous, but they are not so easy to obtain, and they all want to know, where did Lee's get these two things?

"Don't worry, since they have already done it, if it doesn't work once, then there will definitely be a second time. We'll just wait. Shen Ning smiled, the meaning in his eyes was unclear. The porridge was served as it was. Presumably, everyone in the small kitchen knows that this porridge has not been touched.

Besides, they want to let the retired heir, aren't they afraid that the retreat will compete with them for the position of the prince and the position of the Marquis of Qingping? If they knew that they had worked so hard to plan and it was just a void, how would they jump off the wall in a hurry?

It's cheap to deal with people like the Li family, and it's cheap to beat them to death, and she wants to let them watch the ones they care about so much. Something that I thought I could hold in my hand forever. Once there is no more. What kind of life will be worse than death.

Ying Nantu also nodded, what Shen Ning thought in his heart was exactly what he felt. Originally, they also thought that this was a trivial matter in the house. But Shen Yuxian, the eldest uncle, didn't think so.

Thinking of Shen Yuxian, this newlywed couple laughed together, and the ruthlessness that occasionally flashed in their eyes could be regarded as husband and wife.

In less than ten days, the New Year will be over, and Jingzhao officials are all thinking about the New Year's holiday. Although the emperor is seriously ill, the officials are worried about the dragon's body. But the year still has to be passed, and the firecrackers on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve still have to be fired.

Don't waste people, this. These officials think clearly.

But then, on a great court before the Chinese New Year, several impeachments from the officials of the Imperial Historical Observatory and the Ministry of Rites directly threw them away from Mu Xiu's considerations.

No way? It's almost the New Year, everyone is ready to take a break, why are the officials of the Yushitai and the Ministry of Rites still so idle? Is this a fun show for the Chinese New Year?

Immediately, they all set their eyes on Ying Pingchuan, the Marquis of Qingping, and their eyes were full of sympathy: How did the Marquis of Qingping provoke the Imperial Historical Observatory and the Ministry of Rites? Now, it's been a bad year, isn't it?

Ying Pingchuan stood in the Xuanzheng Palace, his head bowed, and his brows furrowed. He didn't expect that the officials of the Imperial History Observatory and the Ministry of Rites would impeach him for "bending all the style and taking the concubine as his heir", and also called him "a mediocre talent, and he has no honors"!

This impeachment is about the fact that he divorced the Li family and still regarded Ying Nanmou, the son of the Li family, as the prince of the Hou Mansion!

The first to speak out of impeachment was Zhang Shu of the Ministry of Rites, who was the son-in-law of Ye Zhengchun, the right servant of the former Shangshu, who was clever and lively, and has always been valued by Wei Jindu, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites. For this impeachment, he consulted Wei Jindu.

Wei Jindu only thought about it for half an hour, then made a decision, nodded to him and said, "You can do it." This is in favor, Zhang Shu himself doesn't know what the chief officer is thinking, and he doesn't know why he agreed so easily.

In short, with Wei Jindu's approval, he was more calm in his heart. This bomb came from him. Perhaps he didn't expect that this impeachment could change the pattern of Jingzhao's power in the future.

And at this moment, in the imperial history, Yang Jianrui said in the palace: "The move of the Qingping Marquis Mansion is to take the concubine as the heir, which can make the straight and the reverse become a string." Harm the government and damage the public, and the name is safe? Push this for the long, what is the rest? If you don't rope this, you will be swept away? The Marquis of Qingping, who is an official, is in vain, and it is advisable to take it from the cut! ”

Yang Jianrui's words turned out to be a request to take away the title of the Marquis of Qingping! As soon as Yang Jianrui's words were spoken, the court officials felt that their ears were ringing, and they almost couldn't believe what they were hearing. Yang Jianrui, who is an official under the fourth grade, actually asked the prince of the founding of the country to cut the knighthood? Where did he get the guts?!

It must be known that Jing Zhao is noble, and there are only three dukes and five marquis left. The status of the three princes is transcendent and unshakable, and they are accustomed to smiling at Jingzhao's affairs, and Yang Jianrui's move will not offend them. However, the family of the five marquis is the same and branched, and most of them are in-laws. Now Yang Jianrui suggested cutting the knight, which is tantamount to going against the family of the Five Marquis!

Cut the lord, didn't this take the life of the five marquis? Where did he get the guts? How dare he?!

Sure enough, as soon as Yang Jianrui's invitation came out, Wu Chaoneng, Marquis of An Lu, came out to oppose it: "The ministers have a folk proverb: the grasshopper shakes the tree, which is ridiculous." Now it seems that the same is true of some small courtiers. The ancestors of the Marquis of Qingping made great contributions to Dayong, and they were awarded the title of Marquis Mansion to show their favor and hereditary replacement. How can it be cut?! ”

He was so angry that his beard glared. If the Qingping Marquis Mansion can be slashed, then this is a dangerous signal, presumably An Luhou Mansion can't sit back and relax, of course he has to jump out and oppose it.

He scolded Yang Jianrui for being a little courtier, his words were unceremoniously, he was a nobleman and the father of the former crown princess, of course he could speak like this.

Immediately, the marquis of Changwen and the marquis of Xuancheng also came out to support Wu Nengchao's statement, and at the same time put pressure on the prince: "The courtiers impeach the lord, this wind cannot be indulged, if we go according to this, won't it chill our loyalty?" ”

Yang Jianrui just lowered his head slightly, listening to Wu Nengchao's direct scolding of the other marquis, and did not refute. He knew that the one who could scold these people would not be himself, a fourth-grade official.

The courtiers were looking at the few marquis who were blowing their beards, but they didn't expect that Wei Jingyao, who was rarely in the court's middle book, actually spoke, and it was Yang Jianrui in the imperial history who helped!

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Qiqi, the matter of the Qingping Marquis Mansion, Weichen has also heard a little. Now, the former Qing Ping Marquis has left the court, and according to the system, the son she gave birth to will never be able to be crowned the son. Moreover, the Qingping Marquis Mansion also has the eldest son left by the first lady. This move is to mess up the morality of the elders and children. This is not the work of the noble family. ”

Although Wei Jingyao is old, his words are still very clear. After he spoke, Xiao Houren, the left servant of Shangshu, also came out to second, of course, agreeing with Wei Jingyao's words.

With the words of these two bigwigs, the Xuanzheng Hall fell silent for a while.

It stands to reason that the brain circuits of the courtiers are twisted and turned, but the picture above the court on the scene made them think of the most direct possibility: Is this the important ministers of the court and the nobles of the family against each other? The one who was used to open the knife was the Qingping Marquis Mansion?

Originally, such a thing as the Li family's dismissal belonged to the category of things that the people did not raise officials and did not hold accountable, and besides, in every powerful and noble family, there were always one or two pickled things, and everyone turned a blind eye.

Who would be so idle as to want to come and impeach such a thing?

However, there are as idle as the important ministers of the court! Now, since such a thing has been brought to the court, there are officials impeached, there are marquis self-defense, and top ministers speak out, this matter is not easy.

Many courtiers thought that the Marquis of Qingping had married a new daughter-in-law only a few days ago, and the new daughter-in-law was still the eldest granddaughter of the crown prince Zhan Shi Shen Huashan. This is good, why did you provoke the officials of the Imperial Historical Observatory and the Ministry of Rites? And Wei Jingyao and Xiao Houren? They all felt that the direction of the wind could not be seen clearly.

Could it be that Shen Huashan wants to fight for his granddaughter for this princess? However, if the Qingping Marquis Mansion is all taken away, is there still a princess of Laoshizi? Besides, Lord Zhan Shi stood quietly on the ground, as if this matter had nothing to do with him at all.

What the court officials think, Ying Pingchuan doesn't have the heart to know. On a cold day, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he was extremely anxious.

How could this matter be stabbed in the court? It also caused a discussion? He didn't know. But he knows that this matter can be big or small, and the Qingping Marquis Mansion is in danger at this moment!

To put it mildly, the court officials are staring at him for Ying Nanmou as the prince, and it is true that he has no merits, if the prince insists on pursuing it, it is completely possible to cut the knight.

Since the founding of the country, there have been more than 100 nobles, and now there are only three dukes and five marquis, and there is always a reason for the royal family to want to do it.

Now what I see is the meaning of the emperor and the crown prince. The emperor is seriously ill, and what he looks at is the meaning of the prince!

It's hard for the emperor to say there, if it's the crown prince, then there is something to do. By the prince's side, there are still people who can speak for the Qingping Marquis Mansion! Thinking of this, Ying Pingchuan's heart relaxed, and his face improved slightly.

As if feeling Ying Pingchuan's relaxation, Shen Huashan glanced back without a trace, his face was still smiling kindly, but his heart was cold: Qingping Houfu, if you don't level it, my Shen family will not rest!

ps：

Two more! I don't know why, I always feel that Wei Jingyao and Xiao Houren are like beasts in the town...... Sweat.
