Because of Lord Xi's insistence, Xi Chuyu and Mrs. Shangshu finally entered the palace hall to hear the trial, and completely became the laughing stock of the capital.

Because they calculated and followed, in the end, the government sentenced Mrs. Shangshu and Xi Chuyu to a fine of 5,000 taels of silver, and Qiu Xiang and the group of bandits were imprisoned for half a year.

Mrs. Shangshu and Xi Chuyu "became famous overnight" in the capital.

However, Lord Xi was not affected by the sins of his wife and daughter, because on the second day of His Majesty's court, His Majesty gave him high recognition and praise for his selfless behavior.

Therefore, Lord Xi also realized that the ideas that Xi Qingyan gave him really worked.

"Qingyan, you girl knows the general situation, take into account the overall situation, my father almost made a big mistake this time, fortunately you are a child, otherwise your father will probably be crowned with a crime of right and wrong by Your Majesty."

Lord Xi sighed with a long sigh.

"Father, it's not me who knows the general idea, it's my deceased mother, who once taught her daughter to take a long-term view in doing things, and if you don't have a vision, then you will have near-term worries."

"Yes, your mother taught well, well......

As soon as Xi Qingyan opened his mouth like this, Lord Xi became more and more dissatisfied with Xi Chuyu's mother and daughter in front of him.

"Madam, Xi Chuyu, you are not well educated, so you will grow into what you are today, there are a lot of rumors and rumors outside these days, you don't need to go out of the Shangshu Mansion, as for the big and small things in the mansion in the future, it has nothing to do with your mother and daughter."

"Husband, ......!"

Stealing chickens doesn't make rice!

When Mrs. Shangshu heard that her husband would never let her be in charge of the affairs of the Shangshu Mansion, she immediately panicked, she originally thought that the worst result would be that after Xi Qingyan left the Shangshu Mansion, she could continue to take charge of the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Rites and be her veritable housewife.

But now her husband has directly cut off all his retreats?

This consequence was even more unacceptable to her than she had anticipated!

"Husband, light face...... Qingyan's child will one day marry and become a wife, and she will be someone else's family in the future, husband, don't you think that even if Qingyan leaves Shangshu Mansion, she will still be in charge of our family?"

"Even if Qingyan is married, I also have my own arrangements for the management of Shangshu Mansion, you don't have to worry about this matter, you still have to take care of your daughter Xi Chuyu, she is now a daughter in the boudoir, she is shameless, and she left the family of Shangshu Mansion just to go to the Royal Palace to see His Royal Highness!"

"She did such a humiliating thing at the house of a daughter who didn't leave the cabinet, don't you think that there is a problem with your means of educating Xi Chuyu?"

After Lord Xi was more beneficial to his future because of Xi Qingyan's method, he began to look down on Xi Chuyu's mother and daughter extremely unaccustomed to it.

"Husband? Is my daughter my own? Husband, you haven't participated in Xi Chuyu's teaching all these years? Now that something has happened, you're going to blame me for everything?"

Mrs. Shangshu was particularly displeased with her husband's move to find fault afterwards.

"You don't want to climb me here, I tell you, this official is a man in the world, and there is absolutely no problem in teaching his children!"

"This official and you gave birth to Xi Chuyu, and his wife gave birth to Xi Qingyan, now, look at Xi Chuyu's words and deeds, can you still push all the mistakes on my head?"

Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites thought that there was nothing wrong with his own actions, and Mrs. Shangshu heard Lord Xi shouting Mrs. Xi to the dead Xi Chuyu's biological mother, and she felt more and more uncomfortable!

"Ma'am? Who is your wife? I'm the lady you are marrying the eight-carrying sedan chair! You keep saying that Xi Qingyan was conceived by you and your deceased wife, but in fact, Xi Qingyan was still very young when I entered the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Rites, and I raised her single-handedly!"

Mrs. Shangshu felt very wronged, so she complained to her husband.

Xi Qingyan has brought the situation under control, so she left the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Rites with peace of mind, as long as her father and Xi Chuyu's mother have a disagreement, they will naturally no longer cause trouble.

And now she has other things to do.

Because Xi Qingyan found one in the royal palace

A particularly important matter, in order to verify the conjecture in her heart, she went to the Divine Doctor Pavilion.

"How's your investigation going into the Royal Palace?"

"Back to the valley lord, we did investigate some things in this royal palace, according to our people's observations, there are at least more than 5,000 people in this royal palace, these people are not the guards of the royal palace, the royal family has only sent more than 300 people to guard the royal palace."

After Xi Qingyan listened to the investigation results of the subordinates in charge, she confirmed her words even more.

"Sure enough."

"I went to the Royal Palace before, and although the people there were all dressed by guards, I always felt that they were different from the royal guards, and it seems that these were not my delusions."

The guards of the royal palace were also assigned by the palace guards.

"In the past, I didn't have the opportunity to enter the inside of the royal palace to check, and people outside spread that this royal palace was a villa given to Concubine Dong by His Majesty, but there was no decoration of the leisure villa there, but it looked more like a serious and quaint courtyard, not only that, but I also saw a martial arts training ground from a distance there."

Xi Qingyan has a lot of doubts about the Royal Palace.

"Master, you're right, this royal palace is indeed not a good place to relax and escape the summer, our people from the Divine Medicine Pavilion pretend to be Lang Zhong of the wandering party, and he was taken to the mountain by mountain bandits to heal his wounds."

"Our people listened to the mountain bandit leader scolding and saying, 'We are all a family, why bother to be so ruthless, listening to the mountain bandit say this, my subordinates think that maybe this so-called mountain bandit in Kyoto who has been suppressed for many years may really wear the same pants as the gang in the Imperial Palace."

The head of the Divine Doctor Pavilion will think in his heart, and he will listen to Xi lightly.

"There is no need for evidence to prove that the royal palace and the bandits in the suburbs of Beijing are one, and it has always been rumored in Kyoto that those bandits in the suburbs of Beijing are cunning and changeable, brave and good at fighting, but when Xi Chuyu was caught on the mountain, Su Yiting rescued people without much effort."

Xi Qingyan was full of doubts about Xi Chuyu's rescue, if there was no cat behind this matter, how could Su Yiting, a grounded prince, defeat the bandits by himself?

"Valley Lord, are you saying that His Royal Highness Su Yiting is actually a bandit in the suburbs of Beijing, and those bandits in the suburbs of Beijing are the bandits in the suburbs of Beijing?"

The head of the Divine Doctor Pavilion suddenly realized.

"Your Majesty has ordered that Kyoto officials are not allowed to raise soldiers at home, even if he is the prince's Su Yiting, he can only have a thousand soldiers and horses in Kyoto at most, and all generals are not allowed to return to Beijing without being called, even if they return triumphantly, the generals can only stay outside the city."

"Su Yiting's move, I'm afraid he didn't hold back a good thing......

After Xi Qingyan confirmed his conjecture, he spoke in a deep voice.

"Gu Lord, are you saying that His Royal Highness Su Yiting is hoarding soldiers and horses and wants to rebel?" The head of the Divine Medicine Pavilion was shocked and blurted out, but after speaking, he became puzzled again, "Gu Master, this His Royal Highness Su Yiting is the most favored prince in His Majesty's heart, his biological mother is still Dong Guifei, this woman favors the harem, if nothing else, there is a chance that this world is the mother and son, if this is the case, why do they still do this?"

"Su Yiting's move is indeed very unreasonable......

Xi Qingyan has the same opinion as the person in charge, in her opinion, this Su Yiting's approach is too weird.

"However, the Divine Doctor's Pavilion will be ready to move out when the time comes, and you must also be very careful when investigating the Royal Palace and Su Yiting."

"Although we can't understand what Su Yiting did, this doesn't mean that Su Yiting hasn't done those unbelievable actions, and this matter still needs to be investigated."

Dong Guifei and Shu Yiting are not good people, what kind of things a crazy bad guy will do, Xi Qingyan doesn't know.

"In short, you can't have the heart to harm others, and you can't have the heart to prevent people."

"Yes, Gu Master, your subordinates remember, don't worry, there is a lot of business in the Divine Doctor Pavilion, if we are not well-informed, this business will not go so smoothly."

Xi Qingyan was wary of the affairs of the Divine Doctor Pavilion, and he also put his mind at ease.

"Valley Lord, now that His Royal Highness Su Yiting has bad intentions, Valley Lord, you don't need to inform King Li about this?"

「……？」

Xi Qingyan looked puzzled, and when he saw this, he spoke ambiguously.

"Valley Lord, His Royal Highness King Li is the father of the Young Valley Lord, these days, our Divine Medicine Pavilion has also received a lot of help from King Li's Mansion, in the eyes of his subordinates, His Royal Highness King Li cares about the Valley Lord very much."

Since the Divine Doctor Pavilion learned that their valley master was the eldest lady of Shangshu Mansion, he gradually understood the relationship between the valley lord and King Li.

"What nonsense? King Li took good care of the Divine Doctor's Pavilion, and that was because the Lord of the Valley was treating his wounds."

Xi Qingyan was unimpressed.

"Valley Lord, His Royal Highness King Li is notoriously unkind to women in this capital, but I see that when he stands beside you Valley Lord, the whole person has a different demeanor."

「……！」

Xi Qingyan didn't expect that she and Su Lixiao's state of mutual affection would be like this in front of outsiders.

"Don't talk nonsense about this kind of thing in the future, King Li has nothing to do with me."

"Mother, how can you say that about Daddy?"

As soon as Xi Qingyan's words fell, he exposed his two sons with their little heads to protest against her words.

"Little Mo? Xiao Chen? Why are you here?"

Xi Qingyan looked around, and didn't find Su Lixiao's figure at all, but when did these two little guys come to the Divine Doctor Pavilion?

"Valley Master, actually...... In fact, the young valley lord and the little prince have been here since the early morning."

The head of the Divine Doctor Pavilion on the side hurriedly explained to Xi Qingyan.

"Valley Lord, the Young Valley Lord said this morning that he ran away from home from King Li's Mansion, and the Young Valley Lord not only left the palace by himself but also came out with Xiao Shizi, and his subordinates were worried about the safety of the Young Valley Lord Xiao Shizi, so they left the Young Valley Lord Xiao Shizi behind."

"Originally, my subordinates wanted to go to King Li's Mansion to inform His Royal Highness King Li, but I didn't expect you to suddenly come at this time, Lord Gu."

The head of the Divine Doctor Pavilion couldn't laugh or cry.

"Xi Xiaochen, are you itching? How can you run away from home with Xiaomo? Do you know how dangerous it is out there?"

Although Xi Qingyan has never had strict rules about what kind of person Xi Xiaochen wants to become, Xi Xiaochen has gone too far!

"Mother, I don't like to read and write! I want to memorize a thousand gold prescriptions more than reading and writing!"

In the past, Xi Xiaochen couldn't sit still studying medicine, but now in order not to read and write, the little guy is even willing to memorize a thousand gold prescriptions.

It seems that King Li's Mansion is still too constrained for Xi Xiaochen.

"Mother, you have been asking me to wait for you to finish your business in King Li's Mansion before, and you will come back to pick me up, mother, haven't you finished your business yet? Xiao Chen wants to live with his mother......

Su Xiaomo was also very happy to see his mother, and he couldn't say anything too intimate, so he added a sentence.

"Daddy is leaving King Li's Mansion to do errands these days, mother, can we live with you?"
