Tang Yueying saw that Yang Qiaoyue was distracted, and shouted softly: "Miss Yang? ”

Yang Qiaoyue came back to her senses, put down the matter, and talked about the rest of the day.

"I heard that it was the second son of the Tu family who saved Miss Tang?"

Tang Yueying's cheeks flushed slightly, and she nodded: "Yes, after separating from Miss Yang that day, I avoided the chasing soldiers of the village and escaped for one night. When I was about to arrive in Jingshi, I was too tired and fell, but fortunately, the butcher son came by and saved me. ”

Yang Qiaoyue didn't pay attention to her reaction, just chatted casually in order to change the topic.

"If nothing happens."

"When I woke up that day, I asked Uncle Qi to take someone to the village to save you, but I didn't expect Ye Jinwei to block it all first. Miss Yang and Ye Jinwei's people know each other? Tang Yueying asked unintentionally or unintentionally.

Yang Qiaoyue took a sip of tea tactically, and Yu Guang saw that she didn't seem to mean anything special, and shook her head: "I don't know, I was almost arrested by them." After saying that, I believed that I was arrested and sent me back to Yang's house. Don't know what's going on over there? ”

"I heard that there is a vein over there, and someone has swallowed ......." Tang Yueying didn't have a taboo, she said directly, and then realized that it was inappropriate, "I'm also hearsay." ”

"It's okay, I'm not interested in my own surprises."

Yang Qiaoyue smiled secretly in her heart, silly and sweet, except for being pampered and arrogant and jealous, this girl from the deep palace has no thoughts.

It was a surprise to her, she was able to survive in that sycophant palace, it seems that Concubine Qi really likes her and protects her so well.

It is possible that Concubine Qi saw Tang Yueying's appearance when she was a child, and she didn't want her to change.

Tang Yueying sat down for a while, and the words of the two gradually became less, so they didn't stay longer.

Yang Qiaoyue didn't leave any food, sent the other party away, and breathed a soothing sigh: "Finally left." ”

In the past few days, the affairs of the Ming State Mansion have neither implicated the Qi family, nor have they asked the Yang family to inquire.

There is no triage by the three divisions, and it is all handled secretly.

The Jingshi Mansion has returned to its usual order, and the streets have become lively again, and this matter has only become a topic of conversation after dinner, and has not caused waves.

The Royal Palace, the Hall of Service

Emperor Xuande's face was ugly, and his eyes were tightly focused on the Ming Guogong case in his hand.

The atmosphere in the hall was solemn, and there were Shangshu from the Criminal Department, the Military Department, and the Ministry of Industry standing below, Dali Siqing, Chu Yechen wearing a ghost face, and Chu Tianhe, the third prince, were also there.

For a long time, Emperor Xuande slapped the fold on the dragon case.

Several Shangshu immediately knelt down in fright, but the deputy commander of Ye Jinwei and Chu Tianhe did not.

Emperor Xuande coughed violently, his face pale.

"The emperor must not be angry, you must pay attention to the dragon body."

Gonggong Gao stepped forward and patted his back lightly to soothe Emperor Xuande's cough.

After a while, Emperor Xuande said in a deep voice: "Within a hundred miles of the Jingshi Mansion, he actually forged tens of thousands of weapons privately through iron mines. Bingbu! ”

The head of the military department was frightened, and his head hung lower, almost close to the ground.

"The emperor is angry, this matter is the minister's negligence ......."

Before the words were finished, Emperor Xuande did not need the cabinet to deliberate, and directly asked the military department to go to the iron mine to supervise, and he was transferred back to the Jingshi Mansion after the development was completed, and another arrangement was made.

The military department Shangshu directly collapsed to the ground and was pulled out.

"Three Highnesses, Three Highnesses!" He shouted loudly as he was pulled, hoping he would intercede.

Chu Tianhe didn't dare to look at it, and hurriedly knelt down and explained to Emperor Xuande: "Father, this matter has nothing to do with the sons, the Ming Kingdom has never had anything to do with the sons, he committed such evil things, he really deserves death, and it is not a pity to die." ”

His words are listened to by everyone, and they will be heard by all the courtiers.

Emperor Xuande did not speak.

Under the mask, Chu Yechen said lightly: "Your Majesty, the ministers and the three divisions will interrogate, and basically investigate the case of the Ming Guogong. The minister suspected that he was not in charge of this matter, and that there were other ...... behind it. ”

Emperor Xuande raised his hand to interrupt his words, "Duke Ming is the distant uncle of Concubine Xiaohe, is there any evidence to prove that this matter is related to him!" ”

Shangshu of the Criminal Department replied in a timely manner: "Back to the emperor, there is no evidence to prove that other people are implicated, and Ming Guogong also admits that this matter was done by one person." ”

Emperor Xuande looked at Dali Siqing, and the latter replied: "It is true that what Lord Shangshu said." ”

"Good!" Emperor Xuande nodded slightly, and his eyes seemed to be relieved, "This matter will be handed over to the Criminal Department for judgment and conclusion." ”

"It's the emperor."

Emperor Xuande obviously wanted this matter to end here, but Chu Yechen wanted to find out.

"Stand down, deputy commander."

"Yes."

Everyone retreated, and Chu Tianhe glanced at Chu Yechen who was wearing a ghost face before leaving, the deputy commander of the Night Jinwei clearly wanted to continue the investigation, and wanted to burn the fire to the Three Princes' Mansion.

Chu Yechen's face was flat, ignoring the other party's gaze.

After everyone withdrew, Emperor Xuande's originally serious expression softened: "Chen'er......." ”

"The emperor left his ministers alone, and I don't know what happened." Chu Yechen's voice was cold, and he was not close to the person on the dragon chair.

Seeing this, Emperor Xuande coughed again, this son still hated him, hated him for killing his mother and concubine, hated him for executing Uncle Wang who helped him to fight on the battlefield, and hated him for expelling him from the Jingshi Mansion for five years.

He didn't know what to say, and finally said lightly: "I have worked hard for you this time, what reward do you want." ”

"Make a note of it, it will be needed in the future!" Chu Yechen did not refuse, this was his bargaining chip.

Because Emperor Xuande did not refuse, there was a smile on his face, "Okay!" Good! Gao Fu, remember Chen'er's merits carefully. ”

"It's the emperor."

Chu Yechen then reported the assassination in Danzhou separately, Pang Baifu, who was the leader, was dead, and all the people involved in the village pleaded guilty, hoping not to be involved.

The softness on Emperor Xuande's face dissipated, without leaving any mercy, and ordered the whole village to be killed, not even letting go of innocent people, and this matter was even handed over to his personal guards.

Chu Yechen was mentally prepared, but when he heard this, he still felt that person was fierce and selfish.

This is the imperial power, this is the heavenly power of the man on the dragon chair.

Chu Yechen left alone, his mood was low, and he just wanted to see Yang Qiaoyue at this time.

He came to Yuxue Nanzhuang, Yang Qiaoyue was not there, so he stayed in the front yard and sat quietly.

Hu San and Hu Si followed him, and he had never seen his master so depressed.

Hu San found Amei and asked her to ask her to come to Yang's house to invite the eldest girl to come.

Ah Mei did not refuse, and handed over the finishing of the shop to Ah Xiang and them, she went to Yang's house to find the eldest girl, and the others were not at ease.

The big girl in the mask said she couldn't let people know he was here.

Yang Qiaoyue was embroidering at home at this time...... Of course, it was because he had nothing to do at home for the past two days, and he was caught by Lu's labor.

When she was depressed, Amei came to her.

"Ah Niang, I must have something to do with Zhuangzi, I'll embroider this mandarin duck when I come back." Yang Qiaoyue said, and had already run out with Guan Qiu.

Lu Shi looked at Yang Qiaoyue's half-embroidered painting, which is a mandarin duck, it is clearly a duck...... Smiled and shook his head helplessly.

The age is coming soon, what can I do about this family matter.

I can't help but look sad when I think of it.

Yang Qiaoyue went to the courtyard and listened to Amei talk about Chu Yechen's arrival at Yuxue Nanzhuang, worried that something had happened, and immediately went out.

She also happened to want to know the outcome of the Ming Guogong case.

Yuxue Nanzhuang, Chu Yechen was looking at the mountains and frost flowers, and a familiar voice suddenly came from behind him.

"What do you think, so engrossed." Yang Qiaoyue approached and asked everyone else to step back.

When Chu Yechen heard this voice, he came back to his senses and said softly, "You're here!" ”

"You're all sitting in the yard and not leaving, can I not come?" Yang Qiaoyue laughed.

"Didn't bother you, did you?" Chu Yechen didn't seem to be in high spirits, and said lightly, "I just want to meet you." ”

Yang Qiaoyue sensed that something was wrong with him, and originally planned that he would be able to recover with a joke, but it was the first time she had seen him like this after knowing him for so long.

"What happened?"

"All the people in the stockade were killed by his order!" Chu Yechen said lightly, "Indiscriminately, just to show his heavenly power and the fragile sense of security in his heart." Hundreds of lives, you say that if I can't find them, I won't harm them. ”

He raised his eyes slightly and looked at Yang Qiaoyue, his eyes full of self-blame and grief.

There is self-blame for hundreds of lives, and there is also sadness for the great father who was once respected has now become like this.
