The scene of the palace banquet cooled down immediately.
But no matter how embarrassing it is, the queen still has to open the banquet, which is the queen's responsibility.
Soon, there were eunuchs and palace maids serving food, and with a few old ladies with their own identities taking the lead, everyone automatically ignored the unpleasantness just now and began to make tea with the Empress Dowager and the Queen.
The Queen Mother West was not present, everyone was not under pressure, and naturally respected the Queen Mother East.
The Empress Dowager Dong just made a short and quick move, and she actually calmed everyone.
The queen will not be stupid enough to send someone to the emperor who has a banquet with the ministers in the vestibule at this time to talk about this matter.
The banquet didn't seem to be affected much.
But Ye Yun was very nervous, she was worried about whether Su You would succeed there?
Just when the banquet reached its peak and everyone was happy, a eunuch hurriedly ran to the queen's side and said a few words in the queen's ear, and the queen changed color.
Ye Yun had been paying attention to the movement over there, and when he saw this scene, he couldn't help but skip a beat.
The Empress Dowager Dong glanced at Empress Wuqing's face and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
The queen got up and blessed the queen mother and said: "After returning to my mother, I just got a report that there was a fire at the Criminal Department Office!" ”
The Empress Dowager Dong frowned, "Is the fire big?" ”
The queen sighed and nodded, "The fire is not small!" ”
The Empress Dowager lowered her eyes, was silent for a while and asked, "How did the emperor deal with it?" ”
"The emperor ordered someone to rescue the documents and materials of the criminal department and send them to Dali Temple for storage!" The queen replied.
The queen didn't know that the scale of the case files archived by the Criminal Department was huge, and the emperor remembered that there were many literati who were powerless over there, so he sent Jinyi Wei to help.
"It's a little bit that someone accidentally hit the light, it's not a big deal, let's continue to use the feast!" The Empress Dowager raised her voice a little.
Even if she hasn't appeared in front of people for many years, the majesty of the Queen Mother is still there.
Everyone said "No" in unison!
Ye Yun tugged into his sleeve, extremely nervous.
Ye Xi saw that his sister's face was wrong, so he approached her and asked, "Are you uncomfortable?" ”
"It's fine!" Ye Yun shook his head.
If she wants to investigate the Su family's case, she must look at the file and the evidence of the court's punishment of the Su family. So she discussed with Su You for a long time, and finally decided to go to the Criminal Department to steal the file and look at it.
At first, Su You secretly infiltrated the Criminal Department several times, just because the Criminal Department put the top-secret file file in a very hidden underground stone room, and there were several masters guarding it, Su You had no way to enter, no, taking advantage of today's opportunity, he set up this bureau.
When such a thing happened at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, the emperor's interest was greatly reduced, and he sat on the Jinluan chair and waited for the Jinyi Guards to report the progress to him.
Su You, as a Jinyi Wei Qianhu, is taking a group of Jinyi Guards to help the Criminal Department transport the files.
Without such a method, the top-secret dossier will not be able to come out.
The palace Yu Lin Wei was responsible for extinguishing the fire, and the Jin Yi Wei was responsible for transporting the documents.
Because Su You had been fully prepared, he had checked the document catalog in the Criminal Department and knew the number of the Su family's case.
When it came time to start transporting the files from the underground vault of the Criminal Department, he joined them with his cronies.
Each file is sealed with a special wrapper, and it is easy to see at a glance whether it has been opened or not.
The official in charge of squatting was very cautious, and there was an equal number of dossiers for each Jinyi guard to take, and there was another person in the small car that Jin Yiwei took out and fell outside, just in case there was a problem halfway.
Su You commanded Jinyiwei to move the files one by one according to the number, and when the Su family's file was numbered in that grid, he held more than a dozen files in the grid in his arms and ran outside with the smoke that was getting older and thicker.
If it weren't for them, the scholars on the side would not have been able to do such a thing.
Su You carried the file up the stairs and walked out of the stone room, and came to the innermost room of the official office of the Criminal Department, and the squatting official covered his nose and glanced at the number in Su You's hand, signaling him to leave quickly.
At this time, in the entire criminal department, thick smoke billowed out, and there were burnt hanging beams smashed down from time to time.
The room was filled with chaos of officials and guards snatching papers.
Su You walked out, paying attention to the movements around him, and walked towards the place where he stored the replacement documents, fortunately, the smoke was billowing out, and it was important for everyone to rescue the documents and escape, and no one paid attention to him at all.
He came to a corridor, flew up, exchanged the brocade boxes he had prepared, and then flew out with the batch of files.
By the time he returned, he had hidden the real file in a secret and safe place.
Ye Yun's heart kept pounding, Su You did cultivate some cronies this year, but he had to do this himself, otherwise if it was exposed, he would be worried about his life.
She was worried that something would happen, and she was also worried that Su You would not be able to do it.
When I went back after the palace banquet, I was absent-minded all the way.
This incident caused a miasma in the entire central government office area, and by the time all the documents were rescued, it was already late at night.
The officials of the Criminal Department also had to follow them to Dali Temple to check whether the documents were missing one by one. In particular, there must be no error in the top-secret dossier.
Fortunately, the two squatting officials were very cautious, and they glanced at the past, and found that the number was right, the numbers were complete, and the seals were there, so naturally they would not tear them open to see that the things inside were inconsistent.
When Su You quietly came to Ye Yun's courtyard, it was already a child's time.
Ye Yun was worried, without the slightest sleepiness, as soon as he heard the sound, he lit the girl's faint hole, and followed Su You to a house where Mama Lu was.
When Ye Yun saw the brocade box wrapped in paper with a seal, he was still stunned for a while.
"Miss, is there a way for us to open the file without breaking the seal?" Su You asked her,
Ye Yun smiled and commanded Mama Lu, who took a kind of paint and knife and pen that Ye Yun had prepared.
Su You saw Ye Yun use a knife to cut the yellow coarse paper on the back, and carefully removed the empty carton, revealing the dossier inside.
When he saw Su Jingzhong's three words, Ye Yun burst into tears.
However, she is not a weak person, she quickly wiped away her tears, and carefully looked at the file page by page, the more she looked at it, the more sad and angry she became, and the deeper the hatred in her eyes.
In the ninth year of Duanrong, the eldest brother Su Xu led the troops to the battle, and was defeated under the city wall outside the Shaanxi Pass. However, some people reported that the eldest brother had dealings with the enemy, and it turned out that the eldest brother was guarding Xiao Pass all the year round, and he was also very familiar with the Tatar generals.
The eldest brother is a dashing character, full of pride, he didn't care about it at all, and he didn't know that he was regarded as one of the evidence of the eldest brother's collusion with the Tatars.
Once the matter had a beginning, the prison guards began to detain his brother's talisman and wait for the investigation of the case.
Immediately after, things are out of control. The people of the imperial court found the documents of the eldest brother's collaboration with the enemy in the eldest brother's military tent, especially the documents were half burned. The half-burned paper is one of the evidences.
Ye Yun took out the document lightly, looked at it carefully, and found that it was a half-burned parchment with Mongolian written on it, and he was not proficient in Mongolian writing, so he couldn't read it.
It is just that the eldest brother has been dealing with Tatars all year round, so he understands, and Ye Yun, who is extremely smart, naturally understands.
Ye Yun looked at the line-like Mongolian characters and whispered some intermittent words.
"Armament map... Strike at three o'clock..."
Even if the letter was incomplete, Ye Yun still guessed a rough idea.
It turned out that the other party's general, the eldest brother of communication, Su Xu, asked him to give a military deployment map this time, so that the Tatars could win a battle and help him consolidate his position in the Tatar tribe. The other party promised his brother a large amount of money such as gold, and at the same time hinted that it was necessary for the eldest brother to lose once in a while, so that the court would rely on him more.
After understanding the content of this letter, Ye Yun smiled bitterly with tears.
I have to say, this letter looks like that. And to put it fairly, it's hard not to tempt ambitious people.
The situation of the Su family in those years was not only aware of it, but also that many courtiers and opponents knew that the Su family was highly meritorious.
If the elder brother wants to maintain the dominant position of the Su family, he is likely to do so.
When she heard the news, it was hard to believe that the court would believe such a child's play, but at this moment, after seeing this letter, she knew that it was no wonder that no one suspected that the Su family was framed.
Because of his brother's defeat, with his father's prestige in the court, the emperor will punish at most, and he will also relax his vigilance against the Su family, take the opportunity to beat it, and establish the prestige of the monarch, because at that time, everyone could see that the emperor and the prince were secretly very dissatisfied with the Su family. Therefore, it is likely that this is the Su family's self-protection method of retreating.
But Ye Yun knew that his brother would never be able to do such a thing.
If this happened to her father, she would still believe it, but the eldest brother would never be possible, the eldest brother is a very arrogant person, he is beautiful and bright, even if he knows that the Su family is in a bad situation, he will never do such a thing.
But the court believed it, and the vast majority of ministers believed it!
Later, several generals carefully analyzed the enemy's way of marching, almost as if the other side was holding our defense map and fighting them one by one, and every step of our side was in the enemy's calculations.
Later, the overseer asked from the captured prisoners that the other party did have our defense map, and it was revealed that it was in the hands of a general named Rogge.
Soon, the prison army sent the master of the brocade guard to steal back the defense map from the other party's tent.
Now this defense map has also become one of the evidence.
With such conclusive human and material evidence, coupled with reasonable motives, this case is naturally an ironclad case.
Ye Yun touched the deployment map of the cowhide map, and looked at the familiar military deployment, tears fell from his eyes.
"Miss......" Su You saw Ye Yun's expression mournful, and he was a little distressed. He saw the number of times Ye Yun cried, and he counted it over with five hands.
Ye Yun shook her head, took the remnant letter and the defense map, sat behind the case, and copied it, the residual letter was parchment, and the defense map was a kraft map, she remembered these details clearly.
He even wrote down the names of the people who had testified in the file.
By the time the tracing was completed, it was close to the early hours of the morning.
Ye Yun let out a big breath and took a sip of the water handed over by Mama Lu.
"Next, what we have to do, first, find a way to find out the details of the enemy leader who communicated with the eldest brother, the imperial court wants to set up this bureau, there must be collusion with the other party, and then check, in addition to the eldest brother, who else may know the deployment map!"
"Good!" Su You nodded, "I'll find a way to check." ”
Because the time was not early, Ye Yun didn't dare to stay longer, she sorted out the file again, sealed her in a special way, and glued it with the yellow gel found by Mama Lu, and after Ye Yun's careful processing, there was no trace of being cut.
Ye Yun instructed Su You to take the time to change the file back, and he took the copied drawings back to Ye Mansion.
Su You sent her back.
Ye Yun was very tired, and when Ye Xi called her on the second day, he obviously found that her eyes were dark, and her whole person was in good spirits, and when she touched her forehead again, she found that she had a fever.
So Ye Yun really rested like this for a few days.
Her mind kept thinking about the whole case.
Until the fifth day after the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, she suddenly received an invitation from the twelve princes.
Invite her and Ye Xi to participate in the autumn hunting outing three days later.
The Twelve Princes like pomp, he wants to be the east, and many famous ladies and sons in the capital are going to participate.
"Sister, you go, please tell the person who sent the letter, I won't go when I'm sick!" Ye Yun didn't have the heart to go on an outing.
Ye Xi glared at her, "You're obviously fine, you can go out for a while, I see that you're in a bad mood today, so it's better to agree!" Ye Xi persuaded her.
But Ye Yun insisted, Ye Xi had no choice, he still thought that it would be good for him to accompany his sister, so he sent someone to reply to the twelve princes.
After the twelve princes found out, they were angry and sent their henchman eunuch Chen Min to lobby Ye Huai.
Ye Huai was very helpless, he couldn't help but give the twelve princes this face, so he personally told his two daughters.
In this way, Ye Yun agreed.
Just look at the refreshing one
